"The recommendation of war

I advocated war with Austria if war

let the world know that we are go

will listen for the president's ideas of
what we would expect to be the con

the war. As to Alsace and Lorraine
and other territorial problems that
affect Europe, I think it was the
part of Wilson oh the part of the

for which we are contending, if put
into practice, would result in an
equitable solution of these ques

felicitous results from every point of
view.
"They give assurance of practical

cially and militarily.
All Subjects Discussed.
"The agreements have been con
cluded upon the basis of a complete
understanding and close solidarity
among the allies for the solution of
the questions in which they have a
common interest in the war. The
financial needs of each of them, the
requirements of their armament, their
transport, their iood, have been the
subject of profound study which guar
antees perfect satisfaction. The
creation of a supreme inter-allied
naval committee has been determined
upon. Military unity of action has
been placed upon the course, of cer
tain realization by the inter-allied

Police Seek Burglar With
Taste for Scotch Whisky
Police who believe they can de
tect one brand of whisky from an
other on a man's breath are search
ing for a burglar who overlooked
other valuables and stole two cases
of old Scotch and a three-gallon
jug of ancient vintage from the
home of Harry Lawrie, architect,
5010 Dodge street, Tuesday night.
Any individual with Scotch whis
ky on his breath will be under sus
picion, police say. The sleuths ad
vance the theory that an intoxicated
man found dancing the Highland
fling would be as good as con
victed of the burglary. The whisky
burglar got into the Lawrie home
through a cellar window.
