President Wilson authorizes the statement that there has been no change in the ori ginal plan for linking together the league of nations and the peace treaty. The plan was enunciated by the peace conference itself at the first plenary session, and, it is added, there has been no departure this far from the order then laid down. , The invitation, seivt by the peace conference to neutral states to parti cipate in a discussion of the league of nations has brought responses from Switzerland, Holland, Den mark, Norway and Sweden. These countries have forwarded statements on their views to the secretary of the conference. Denies Published Report. New York, March IS. Joseph P.

May we ask wdiat are your suggestions? We desire you to come out in the open like other public men assuming to lead in of ficial position. We remember you did not vote for the war resolution and that you spoke and voted against the selective draft urged by the president. We remember your attitude throughout the period of the- war as being out of sympathy with the administration and the ma jority of your democratic collea gues. "Do you now propose to act in harmony with the majority view or to compel the majority to act in accordance with your views? Are you with Lodge, I'enrose. Borah and Reed, or are you with the presi dent and for the league of nations.?" Unrest in Westphalia Acute in Iron Districts London, March 15.
