NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENTjMIS Attitude of President Wilson As sures Harmony With the British and French. W ACCORD ON MAIN POINTS .Destruction of Surrendered Enemy Worships Is Favored Bolshevik! Out-Voted In Germany and Ebert Government Given Greater Power Polcnd Be comfng Very Ag gressive. By EDWARD W. PICKARD. The tact with which President Wil son Iina received tho ovations accord d hliu In Franco has created a most fuvornble Impression nlirond mid at 'borne. Still more pleasing Is It to record the fact that he has roiiu to Europe with a much more open mind tlinn innny hud feared was the case. ,ThojRh BtnndhiK llnnly on his four- cen points, he is open to conviction as i o the best means of applying his jldcns. In brief, ho went across with Jio set program for the adjustment of tho tunny problems that must arise, nnd he Is devoting himself whole heartedly to leumlng the views of the jreprcsentntlvcs of the other nntlons. On some of the greatest questions to bo determined, tho organization of a iengue of nations, the Indemnity to be assessed ngnlnst (icrmuny and the dis position of the surrendered (Senium wnr fleet, It nppenrs the American and ilirltlsh delegates will be In full ac cord, nnd there Is reason to bellevo the French representatives will be sat isfied In these matters. Furthermore, Mr. Wilson, it Is asserted In l'arls, In sists that In formulating the peace 'trenty no one nation shall be allowed to nssuino the role of master, dictating to the others their Hue of conduct. fe The president has not changed his ylews as to the foundation of a league of nntlons, and those, In general, meet ,wlth the approval of the Urltl.sh and French. The French Society for n Lengno of Nations, of which Senntor Bourgeois Is president, already has drafted n complete plan for the consti tution of such a league ntiu submitted It to Premier Clomenceau. This so (clety Is not of recent formation. Its Iflelegntcs will confer with members of elmllur organizations In the other al lied countries and probably the result of their deliberations will he submit ted to the pence conference. One of President Wilson's demands concern ing such n league, namely, that Its or ganization shall he n part of tho pence treaty, will meet with opposition In 'America, If not at the conference. Somo Ilepubllcnn senators are against what they think would be unwise 'iinste In committing this nation to ,fiuch iilllunco nnd urge that the forma tion of the league should be delayed nnd made the subject of a separate treaty, If utlopted at all. Senator Knox started the debate by proposing ii resolution putting the senate on rec ord ns favoring tho postponement of both the league of nntlons and the freedom of the seus questions until nfter the settlement of the Immedlnto Issues of the war. Mr. Tuft, who for long bus been pro moting tho I.enguo to Knforcu Peace, Is combating this Republican opposi tion nnd, it Is snld, has wnrned tho Republican senntors that their courso may largely help the Democrats to win the next presidential election. 11 As for the matter of Indemnity, President Wilson hns let It bo known that ho Is as determined ns anyone thtit Germany shall pny for tho devas tation she hns wrought, nnd doubtless his visit to tho regions the Huns rav- tged will not lessen this deternilnn Ion, Hut, so far as Is known, he does not contemplato the exaction of puni tive duinages from Germany. The en tente nllles have a very clenr Idea of whnt should be demanded of the Ger mans In the way of payment, for they have been the actual sufferers, and It Is likely their views, when they rench full agreement, "III prevail In the main. rVi America's delegates to the peace conference. It Is declared, have agreed to lecnmmcnd the destruction of the surrendered enemy warships. In or der to avoid any disputes as to their distribution. In this they are supported by the Prillh who, through Sir l.'rle Cediles, llrst lord ot the admiralty, already had acqule-.rcd In the plan. The smaller nations prob ably will protest against this plan, for tin -y had counted on building up their navies with some of the I Mm vessels. M That vague proposition, the "free dom of the seas," Is becoming a trllle less vague, and the chnnces that It will cauve any serious dispute between the Americans and the Ilrltlsh at the conference table are growing dally more remote. It Is understood that Mr. Wilson has nssurcd, or will assure Premier Lloyd George that he has no Intention of suggesting thnt the Ilrlt lsh navy be reduced to n point that would endanger the safety of the em pire. In this, as In all else, the presi dent's frequent conferences with the statesmen of Europe nre having de cided effect nnd the possibility of clashes between the American dele gates and those of the other nations Is fading away rapidly. King Victor Fmmnnuel of Italy and the prince of Piedmont, heir to the throne, arrived In Paris Thursday and met President Wilson, formally Invit ing him to visit Italy. Over In Eng land there was much confusion owing to Mr. Wilson's sudden change of plans regarding his visit to London. He determined to be there on Decem ber 2d, Instead of waiting until Inter, the reason given being the possibility that he might find It necessary to re turn to the United Stntes enrllcr thun hud been expected. Id For the time being, at lenst, the bol shevlkl of Germany are beaten. Tho national convention of delegates of the soldiers and workmen's councils opened In Merlin and at once declared In favor of the calling of a national assembly to elect a president of Ger many and the government set Decem ber 20 as the dnte. The Independent Socialists lined up In the convention with the Social Democrats, the party which Is now In control and which Is led by Kbert, Schehknunnn and other of tho people's commissioners. Lleb knecht nnd his Spartacldes vainly fought the plnn for a national assem bly, and the llery Karl was burred from the meeting. Kbert continues to urge the orderly formation of a re public that shall be strongly social istic, but the belief that he really would foster a counter-revolution per sists In some quarters. It was violent ly voiced In tho Herlln meeting by Georg Ledebour, a radical leader of the Independent Socialists, but ho was howled down. The response of the congress to the attack was the adoption of a resolu tion transferring legislative and execu tive power to the Kbert government until some other arrangement Is made by the nntlonnl assembly. In many parts of Germany great dis order prevails. At Danzig, for In stance, nil the prisons were opened and the Inmates set at liberty, and street lighting Is general. iBt Meanwhile the bolshevik meiuice Is moving westward In Jtussln. The fob lowers of Lenlne nnd Trotsky hnve or ganized a formidable army and are steadily attacking the people of tho llultlc provinces. The arrival of allied naval forces at several ports has not sulllced to stop this movement, and tho provisional government of Ksthonla has placed that "republic" under tho common protection of the entente pow ers "pending the decision of the peace conference." Livonia, Courhind and much of Lithuania nre In much tho sumo plight as Ksthonln, and the retir ing German troops are nddlng to the distress of tho people. There have been recently Insistent demands for tho 'withdrawal of Ilrltlsh forces from Kusslu. To tlfoso Viscount Mllner, secretary of wnr, replies with a statement explaining tho contlnuuneo of the allied operations In Itussln and Justifying them, not only as the carry ing out of an obligation of honor to protect tho Russians and Czecho-Slo-vuks from bolshevik outrages, hut also a measure to prevent a reign of bar barism there that would menace all Kurope. j Tho government of the recreated Polish nation Is going ahead rapidly and with determination. Having come to the conclusion that Germany. wns in alliance with the boKhevlkl, It sev ered diplomatic relations with I'.erlin and drove Count Harry Koslor, the Gorman minister, out of the country. He Wits accused of having taken to Wnrsiw a corruption fund of 20.000, 000 marks to organize a bolshevik coup there. The government also has or dered elections to the Polish parlia ment In the districts of Allensteln. Po sen, Oppeln, lletitlieu. Kattowltz. I'la tow and Danzig, and this Is denounced by the German press as the Implied an nexation of largo parts of German east ern provinces. The Pojes have ordered the mobilization of about l.r.oo.OOC men. On Friday came the news that n Polish army numbering 00.000 was be lug landed nt Danzig, the seaport of West Prussia, which the Poles seek ns an outlet to ttic iiaitic sea, Another anti-German leader of the Ukrainians hns come to the front, General Petlura, and he hns occupied Odessa. He has the support of the working ami middle classes, and hns declared war ngnlnst the Ukrnlnlnn government, the capitalists and the land owners. He advocates the exten sion of the Ukraine Into tho Ruthenlan portions of Gallcln, and consequently will find himself opposed by the Poles. Having marched up to and across the Ithlne, tho allied armies of occupa tion now hold the three brldgehends on the enst bank of that river; as stip ulated In the armistice. The Ilrltlsh have tho Cologne bridgehead, tho French that nt Mainz, nnd the Ameri cans and French together hold tho bridgehead of Coblenz. Forty-two per cent of this, the southern pnrt, Is occu pied bythePollus. The Americnn Third army, under General Dlckmnn, wns In Its Uunl position at the expiration of the original period of the armistice, exactly according to the pluns made a j month before, despite changes therein and the dllllcultles of moving n lnrgc ' army so far, with all Its supplies. The people of Cologne are not en- ' Joying the restrictions on their move- i incuts Instituted by the Krltish, and hundreds of them have been arrested for being out In the streets In the eve- i nlng. The French, nlso arc very strict with the Inhabitants of the territory , they are occupying. There Is no dan- ger of any sympathy for the Iluus be- ' Ing stirred up by this. t un practically every day sees the ar rival of one or more transports laden ! with returning American soldkVs, ' many of them wounded, and arrange-' ments for their release from the serv ice nre being perfected. That their ab sorption Into the civil life of tjie coun- , try will be accomplished without trou ble Is assured by leaders In Industrial affairs. The casualty lists Just now , are longer than ever, for we arc get ting the names of the boys who fell In the great light In tho Argonne, the severest conflict In which the Ameri cnn troops were engaged. Our navy also Is coming home, piece meal. Many of the vessels will bo kept abroad for somo time, and American mnal stations will be maintained nt Hrest, Gibraltar and tho Azores for a year at least, the consent of France. Great llrltnlu nnd Portugal having been obtained. These stations, with their seaplanes and radios, will render aid to the merchant marine. Our other nnval establishments In Kurope nre being dismantled as rapidly us pos sible. -fcs Swift work on tho llnanco bill hns been done by the senate. Among tho many important committee amend ments adopted wns one imposing a tnx of 10 per cent on profits from child la bor products entering Interstate com merce. Twelve Southern senators, nnd they alone, voted agnlnst this amendment, which Is designed to re placo the child labor law declared un constitutional by tho Supremo court. !Gl Admiral Castro wus elected presi dent of Portugal to succeed Doctor Paes, who wns assassinated as the re sult of u conspiracy alleged to have been formed by tho League of Ilcpub Mean Youths.

LESSON FOR JANUARY 5 PHARAOH OPPRESSES ISRAEL. LESSON TEXT-Exodus 1:7-::. GOLDEN TEXT-IIe Rhutl s.ivo th children of the needy, and utintl break In pieces tho onprvHsor. I'Mtilnis I'.'-t DEVOTIONAL ItEAOlNtt-l'salms 2. ADDITIONAL MATEIUA!-i:xodun 5:1 61; Hebrews 11:23-27. The hook from which the next eight lessons are taken is a continuation o' the story of the chosen people. Its central theme Is redemption tho de liverance of Israel from bondage and their separation unto God. The ques tion of relationship from ICgyptlnn bondage Is a typo of our own redemp tion from sin's bondage (I Cotlnthlans 0:7). Pharaoh represents the devil, and I'gypt I lie world. I. The Increase of the Chosen Seed (1:7). After Joseph's death Israel quickly grew Into a tuition. This Increase wns the fulfillment of Genesis 35:11, which promise was repeated to Jacob just be fore going Into Kgypt (Genesis '10:3). if It be the problem of bow a little com pany of seventy persons could become an host of six hundred thousand men In so short a time, let us remember Hint God promised it, and all dllllcul tles will vanish. There Is a time com ing when there shall be another amaz ing Increase in Israel (lizeklei 30:10, 31, 37, 38; 37:20). II. A New Dynasty (1:8-10). Joseph's elevation In Kgypt was dur ing the reign of the Hyksos kings. He Ing of Semitic origin they, were not hostile to the Hebrews, but when thcro "arose up a new king which knew not Joseph" (v. S) the amazing growth of the Israelites excited bis envy and fear (vv. 0, 10). This fear was two fold: (1) In case of war they might Join the enemy nnd tight against them. (2) Lest they should remove from the land, thus cutting off a vital source of revenue and exposing to danger tho eastern border of the land. HI. Measures to Check the Growth of Israel (1:11-22). These measures place on exhibition" the folly of worldly wisdom (1 Corin thians 3:10). Their fatal mistake was that they left God out of their calcula tions. God hud promised that Israel should be great in numbers and mighty in power. He who plans against God shall miserably fall and shall bo shown to be a fool. 1. Cruel Taskmasters (vv. 11-11). They were placed under heavy bur dens. Cruel taskmasters were placed over them who forced them to labor In building treasure cities and all man ner of service in the Held. This meas ure was ineffectual, for "the more they alllicted them, the more they multi plied nnd grew.' This rapid growth resulted in more intense burdens being heaped upon them. 2. Murder of Male Infants by tho Midvvives (vv. 10-21). This measure, also miscarried, as the midvvives feared God ami chose to obey him. He cause they refused to destroy God's people he gave them homes and chil dren and the Joys thereof. 3. Drowning of Male Chlldreu In the River (v. 22). In order to make this measure effective all the people were charged with the responsibility of cast ing the Hebrew male children Into the river. Tills mandate seems to have been given shortly before Moses was born. This plan likewise was foiled, and the very child who when a man upset bis throne, was sheltered nnd nurtured In bis own palace. IV. The Birth and Education of Moses (2:1-8). The measure which was designed to destroy tho Hebrew menace, also brought to Pharaoh's palace and edu cated there the very man who after ward shattered the Kgyptiau power , ami set free the enslaved people. The faith of Moses' parents, caused them to ! Ignore the command of the king and 1 bide him for three months (Hebrews i 11:23). Faith in God is the antidote ! for fear (Psalms 27:1) Ills mother ' discerned In him a proper child, or a child fair to God (AOts 7:20), and be lieved him to be the deliverer of his people. She no doubt Instilled this j truth la Ids mind from his childhood, i Perhaps led by the story of Noah's ark i 'she made an ark of bulrushes and , placed Moses In It and left it at tho i place where Pharaoh's daughter would I be attracted when sho came down to bathe. Miriam, his sister, was plnced , where she could watch the affair. She j came with a suggestion at the oppor tune moment as to a nurse for the j baby. Education nt his mother's knee I gave character, nnd education at tho I Egyptian court qualified him to be the i historian and lawgiver of his people. Necessary Ingredients.
