President Wilson had before him tonight a personal cablegram from Frederick Wilhelm, former crown prince of Germany, suggesting "if the allied and associated governments want a victim, let them take me instead of the 900 Germans who have com mitted no other offense than that of serving their country in trie war." What action the president might take on the message, which presum ably was identical with that re ported in Amsterdam dispatches as sent to the rulers and presidents of other powers opposed to Germany in the war, was not disclosed. There was a suggestion at the White House that he might reply, making his message the vehicle for a re-expression of the opposition to trial of the former German emperor or other enemy officials expressed by Ameri can delegates at Paris.

BRITISH PREMIER SIDESTEPS TOPIC OF PEACE TREATY Refuses to Be Drawn Out in Reopening of Parliament Debate. London, Feb. 10. The speeches with which the new sessions of the House of Commons was launched Tuesday do not make much history. Premier Lloyd George, William Adamson and Sir Donald MacLean spoke for the government, laborites and liberals, respectively. No not able Irish voice was heard, al though Ireland was the subject of part of all the speeches. The premier gave a long explana tion of the government's Russian policy, but refused to be drawn out by the other speakers on the topic of revising certain "unworkable" features of the peace treaty. Asks Greater Production. Dealing with the burning question of economy, the -premier recom mended the familiar specific of in creased production. His remarks on Ireland gave no new information regarding the measure soon to be introduced. Col. Sidney Peel, coalition union ist, who made the reply to the ad dress from the throne, said: "It will be a grievous disapppintment to us if the United States finds itself un able to take part in the work of re construction. But it must be master in its own house, as we are in ours." Urges Treaty Revision. Sir Donald MacLdan, urging revi sion of the peace treaty, said: "One of the essentials of the guar antee was the fact, when the opposi tion agreed to it, that the signature of the president of the United States was appended. It does not now look as though this is going to be honored." "I only hope I am wrong," he added as Mr. Lloyd George indi cated his dissent. The American ambassador, John W. Davis, and the Canadian pre mier, Sir Robert L. Borden, were among those in the galleries. Traditional Opening. For the first time since 1914, the ancient ceremony of a state opening of parliament with all its traditional pageantry was observed. King George in opening the speech from the throne, said "my lords and members," instead of the customary "my lords and gentle men," this innovation being necessi tated for the first time at the pro rogation of parliament in December by the election of Lady Astor to a seat in the house of commons. Two hours elapsed from the time the procession started from Buck ingham palace until it returned. Women Not Veiled. The only innovation in today's ceremony was in accordance with the lord chamberlain's edict, at the command of the lyng, that peeresses, while appearing in evening dress, did not have their features veiled. In stead of veils flowed behind in trains nine feet long which made a suitable background for the display of jewels which were family heir looms. The edict was actuated by a desire to simplify the ceremony. Queen Mary wore the wonderful crown jewels, including the Cullinan diamond. Serious consideration of economic conditions throughout the country was urged by King George in his speech from the throne which opened the session of parliament. Thomas Hall, State .

AFFECTED ARM AND LEG ARE GAINING STRENGTH At No Time During Illness Was Brain Power or Extreme Vigor of Reasoning Faculties Impaired, Doctor Says. - Baltimore. Md., Feb. 10. The Baltimore Sun today published a copyrighted dispatch from Wash ington in which was given an inter view with Dr. Hugh H. Young of Johns Hopkins hospital at Baltimore, on the condition of President Wil son. Dr. Young in part said: "From thevery beginning the medical men associated with the case have never had anything to con ceal. When I first saw the presi dent in October a crisis had arisen of such gravity, owing to the de velopment of prostatic obstruction, that an emergency operation to re lieve this situation was content plated, but by a fortuitous and whol ly unexpected change in the presi dent's condition, the obstruction be gan to disappear. Improvement Complete. "The improvement in this respect, which has been steady, is now com plete. The president was organical ly sound when I saw him first, and I found him not only organic ally sound when I visited him last week, but further, all the organs were functioning in a perfectly normal,, healthy manner. "The president's general condi tion and specifically the slight im pairment of his left arm and leg have improved more slowly, it is true, but surely, steadily. There have been no setbacks, no backward steps and rumors to this effect are rubbish. Arm and Leg Affected. "As you know, in Ocotober last, we diagnosed the president's illness as cerebral thrombosis, which af fected his left arm and leg, but at no time was his brain power or the extreme vigor and lucidity of his mental processes in the slightest degree abated. This condition has from the very first shown a steady, unwavering tendency toward reso lution and complete absorption. The increasing utility of the left arm and leg, greatly impaired at first, have closely followed on this im provement. The president walks sturdily now, without assistance and without fatigue. And he uses the still slightly impaired arm more and more every day. Mental Vigor Great. "As to his mental1 vigor, it is simply prodigious. Indeed, I think in many ways the president is in better shape than before the illness came. "You can say that the president is able-minded and able-bodied and that he is giving splendid attention to affairs of state, and that we have every assurance that he will become progressively more active in these matters with the advent of spring and sunshine, which cannot now be long delayed." Two Homes Looted And Pedestrian Held Up by Highwaymen The home of Mr. J. L. Edwards, 4319 Erskine street, was entered by burglars while the family was away between 7 and 10 o'clock last night, and robbed of several hundred dol lars worth of property.

Sims denied today before the senate committee investi gating naval awards that in conver sations with Representative Byrnes of South Carolina and other mem bers of congress he had sought to belittle America's efforts in the war. The admiral, said Mr. Byrnes, "must either have misunderstood me or confused the remarks made to him by the many people he talked to in Europe."
