(By Associated Press.)
DEFINITE PEACE PLAN.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. In
an unexpected speech before a
joint session of congress at noon
today, president Wilson made a
re-statement of the war alms of
the United States, which are in
harmony with the war aims
stated by Lloyd George before
the British house of commons a
few days ago. Wilson present-
ed a definite program for world
peace which contains fourteen
specific considerations.
WASHINGTON, Jan. Presi
dent Wilson sprung a surprise by an
nouncing at he would address
congress at 12:30 today on the sub
ject of "International Relations." It
Is understood that the executive must
have been preparing for this speech
for some time, as the subject matter
of the address was in type ready for
release when the president started
speaking. A joint session of both
houses was arrangedl, and a goodly
audience was in the galleries when
the president was ushered into the
chamber. Printed copies of the
speech were released to all parts of
the world from New York soon after
the address began.
Main features of the address were
embodied! in the stateemnts nf . the
president concerning world peace,
and these were clearly stated as fol
lows: First: Open covenants of peace be
tween the nations at war that shall
be absolutely free from any private
or secret international understand
ings, in order that the peoples of the
world may know exactly where their
governments stand. In relation to
this most important part of the
treaties which will eventually" be
made.
Second: Absolute freedom of the
seas, in peace or war, except as ocean
highways may be closed by Interna
tional action.
Third: Removal of nil economic
harriers, and the establishment of an
equality of trade conditions among
the nations consenting to peace and
associating themselves In a pact for
maintaining tranquility.
Fourth: Positive guarantees for
reduction of national armaments to
the very lowest point consistent with
domestic safety. This feature neces
sarily cutting down vast standing
armies, closing up munitions factories
to a large extent, shutting down of
cannon foundries and curtailing fu
ture enlargements of navies.
Fifth: Impartial adjustment of all
colonial claims, based upon the
principle that the peoples concerned
have equal weight with interests of
the government.
Sixth: German evacuation of all
Russian territory and unrestricted
opportunity given for Russia's po
litical development. .
Seventh: Evacuation of Belgium,
without any attempt on the part of
Germany or other influences to limit
sovereignty of The Netherlands.
Eighth: All French territory oc
cupied by hostile foreign armies to
be evacuated, freed and restored, and
reparation made on the part of Ger
many for annexation of Alsace-Lorraine
In the war of 1870-71.
Ninth: Readjustment of Italy's
frontiers along clearly recognizable
lines of nationality, which will in ef
fect restore certain sections formerly
nnnexedi by stronger powers to the
north. .
Tenth: The greatest opportun'ty
for the autonomous development of
the peoples' of Austria-Hungary.
Eleventh: Evacuation by Huns of
Roumania, Servia and Montenegro,
with access to the sea for Serbia, and
guaranteed economic and political
independence of the Balkan states.
Twelfth: Secure sovereignty for
Turkey's portion of the Ottoman Em
pire, opening of the Dardanelles to
ships and commerce of all nations of
the world, and guaranteed protec
tion from atrocities and persecu
tions committed by the Turrs to all
other nationalities residing within
Turksh borders. Butchery by Turks
of Armenians and Syrians could not
continue under this guarantee. '
Thirteenth: Establishment of an
Independent Polish state with access
to the sea and assured political pro
tection for the Poles. This feature
would deprive Germany of the great
er part of Russian territory now oc-
cupled by Teuton armies, and give to
the Poles the independence they have
long Bougint.
Fourteenth: A general association
of nations of the world under specific
covenants for mutual guarantees of
political Independence to both large
ana sman states alike.
. "For such covenants," conclues the
Biaiemeni or president Wilson, "we
are willing to fight until they are
acnievea.
, ' Weekly War lleview.
' WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. Secretary
oi war Bauer, in his weekly review
of the war situation, today stated
that "the expected German offensive
In the west will probably be their
greatest assault, but the British and
French armies are to be relied upon
to withstand the shock." The expect
ed drive is doubtless being delayed
by weather conditions which prevent
troops, guns and munitions from be
ing massed for the attack.

MAN
Y ENLISTMENTS
SINCE JUNE FIFTH
The Last Consignment of 82
Questionnaires Will go
Forwajd Jan. 10th.
PHYSICAL TEST SOON
Estimated AlKmt 75 Per Cent of Reg-
isti-ants Will He Placed in Class
One Dr. Stewart Will
Conduct Examination.
In looking over the questionnaire
flies this morning Deputy Sheriff
Raffety, who Is assisting with the of
fice work of mailing out the inquisi
torial brochures, discovers that
Douglas county, since June 5, has
furnished 127 patriots to the differ
ent fighting contingents of the
United States army and navy, of
wnicn os ot tnese enlistments are
officially certified to, the residue of
69 is unofficially announced as to
now serving the colors, but it is
thought that within a comparatively
snort time complete evidence of en
listment of the entire number will
be furnished by either the men thorn
selves or through relatives - and
friends who know of the actual en
listment and present whereabouts of
the men. .Many of these registrants
are now with the expeditionary
forces on the "other side" and
of course these registrants have not
had time to fill out the booklets and
return them to the local board.
The last consignment of question
naires are to go forward about the
middle of the present week and as
soon as all classifications have been
made these registrants who are final
ly placed in class one will be called
to pass the physical test and if suc
cessful w411 then be subject to call.
Many boards have already sent out
the call for examinations having
completed all preliminary work, and
it is thought that this procedure will
occur in Douglas county in the very
near future. However, no official In
formation to this effect has been giv
en out.
The physical test will no , doubt
be given at the court house, utilizing
the jury and court rooms for this
purpose and in view of the fact that
only one registrant can be examined
at a time several days will be re
quired to complete the task, Jt is
understood that Dr. Stewart, of the
Ann of Seely, Sether & Stewart, a
member of the exemption board, will
have full charge of .ae examinations
and will personally inspect all reg
istrants before they are sent to other
military physicians for final inspec
tion. The examination board will sub
ject the registrant to a rigid test for
physical fitness and in tho event the
registrant examined is found to be
unfit for severe military duty, he
may, at the discretion of the examin
ing physician, be held for special and
limited duties.-
It is estimated that about 75 per
cent of the 1623 registrants will be
placed in class one. However, this
figure may be too low, it depends en
tirely on the action taken by the dis
trict board on industrial and and ag
ricultural claims. A major portion
of the men wfto'seek deferred classi
fication may yet be placed in class
one subject to first call while the pos
sibilities are that this will not be
the case and that all expert men
along these lines may be drafted into
other branches of the service for spe
cial duty.

DELIVERS AN ADDRESS
The ladies of the Mental Culture
club met this afternoon ,in their
rooms at the parish house' and cur
rent events were discussed, the load
er being Mrs. E. A. Hinklo. At the
conclusion of this interesting feature
of the afternoon the ladles repaired
to the high school building where
Prof. Landsbury, of the University
of Oregon school of music, gave a
splendid talk to the high school
students and Mental Culture club
ladies, under the auspices of the
club.
Prof. Landsbury chose as his topic
"Peeps into the Workshop, of Music,"
taking up the question in a clear,
concise manner of the relation of
music to education, how it fhould
be a part of one's education and
considered a science. Prof Lands
bury severely criticized the prevail
ing notion and viewpoint of mucic,
saying that It was generally thought
to be an art for the emotions and
that in reality It could be studied by
all normal people, and a great deal
accomplished! with it; that it could
be developed under nearly every clr-
cumstance, and that it was not alto
gether a natural gift.
Prof. Landsbury declared that mu
sic was not a subject for old women,
children or fools, but waB for every
one. A critical analysis, not a tire
some, technical one was given by
the professor, and intermingling with
the seriousness of the theme were a
number of amusing stories thit kept
the large and interested audie -co in
a good humor throughout the ses
sion. Prof. Landsbury is hitter in
his indictment of the emotional the
ory of music and stated that it should
be considered- an asthetic pleasure
and general .culture, as one of the
most important sciences: a part of
one's education, as a matter of fact
The address was informal in na
ture and was one of the most worth
while and interesting every delivered
In this city onthe subpoct. of music
Prof. Landsbury is at the head of
the department of music at tho uni
versity and is one of tho best known
musical authorities in the state.
In addition to the splendid speech
of Prof. Lanusburg,. several special
numbers were 1 given including two
excellent piano boios oy Ernest Arun
del and a beautiful vocal solo by
Miss Bernlce Kinser.
LOOKING GLASS YOOTH
IS SHOT
Elmer Huffman, the 15-year-old
son of Omer Huffman, who resides
about half way between this city
and Looking Glass, Was seiiously
wounded last evening about 4:30
o clock by the accidental discharge
of a .22 revolver which tho young
man held in his hand, while attempt
ing to remove the cylinder of the
weapon. The muzzle of the firearm
was pressed against his stomach and
unthinkingly the youth in some un
accountable manner touched the trig
ger, with the result that the pistol
was discharged,: the bullet penetrat
ing the young man's stomach.
.Relatives, attracted by the shot,
were soon lending every possible as
sistance and the injured lad was
quickly placed lit an automobile and
rushed to Mercy hospital and Dr.
Sether was callekto give medical aid.
The attending physician placed
the sufferer on. the operating table
and opened up the wound in an effort
to locate the leaden bullet, but up to
a late hour this afternoon it had not
been discovered!. However, Dr.
Sether stated that the young man
was resting easy and unless unfore
seen complications arise he will soon
recover from the shock.
CONSTABLE ON TRAIL
AT
Constable Howard Church, armed
with search warrants, left here yes
terday afternoon andi arriving at
Oakland, commenced a systematic
search of the room occupied by Dr.
Owens, a veterinary surgeon of that
place, later visiting the boarding
house where Eben Mode, a well
known raffcher is stopping. At the
latter place the , constable went
through the belongings of Mr. Mode.
According to the official these
men are alleged to have made a
trip to some California point with
the express purpose of importing
liquor into dry territory contrary to
the prohibition laws. The constable
was tipped to the illicit transaction
and visited the train that the men
were supposed to pass through this
city on, but no evidence of an incrim
inating nature was found either at
that time or during his stay in Oik-
land. However, the constable feels
sure that the contraband was smug
gled into Oakland in some manner
and was disposed of there, still suf
ficient evidence to secure' a convic
tion was not obtainable and no
charge could be placed against the
suspects. 4

GET SLIGHT RAISE
Councilmen, However, Fail to
Increase the Salary of
Police Force.
HERMANN MAKES PLEA
Sets Forth Ofilcerg Can Not Meet
Expenses' i Present Wage
Asked Week's Time tot
Circulate Petition.
The council at Its regular ses
sion last night received the report
of the committee who investigated
the petition of the street cleaning de
partment and that of the police force
wherein they respectfully asked for a
$10 raise over the present monthly
salaries, setting, forth that the preva
lent exorbitant prices for the neces
sities of life, made so by the war
conditions, could not be met unaer
the wages now received for their ser
vices. The committee recommend
ed, that the street cleaning depart
ment be granted a $5 Increase, but
that the policemen's salary remain
the same. ' '
Attorney E. B. Hermann, who
was present, immediately asked to be
heard and the councilmen,. together
with the mayor andi others in antici
pation, of eloquence, intermingled
with Lord's Oregon Laws, took a new
lease on life and faced the "firing
squad" movlngpicturely. The well
known barrister commenced calmly
and . in a well modulated voice re
quested that the judicial body con
sider the report of the committee
just read, in regard to the salaries'
of the city employes and , lay the
matter asldte for at least a week.
"In the meantime," continued the
Bpeaker warmly, "I will circulate a
petition among the citizens and tax
payers of this city to Bhow you that
the people favor the increase asked
for by the petitioners.'-' Continuing
move warmly: "The police and street
departments are liberally . paid In
other cities,, but our officials are
willing to work for less and only ask .
for a reasonable increase. One en
deavoring to support a family oh
$76 can not live decently and liquid
ate his indebtedness and therefore
your petitioners should be entitled to
the slight raise they ask for If you
gentlemen do not feel that the people
think so, consider this matter for one
week and I, myself, will circulate a
petition and take all responsibility
to show you what the taxpayers "
want."
At this juncture, " Councilman
Nichols, who had been an attentive
listener throughout, interrupted the"
speaker to ask: "Are you here, Mr.
Hermann on your own initiative?"
"I am," was the quick rejoinder,
"without solicitation , from anyone,
and. I don't think that there is a
man interested in this petition that
could pay me enough to come here
as counsel." The attorney further
added that if the city should lose ,the
services of these employes they
would not be able to replace them
for $20 a month each over the pres
ent wage scale. '
Nevertheless and notwithstanding
the report of the committee allowing
the street cleaning department a $5
raise, the police officers the kaiser's
share of happiness .' after the war,
was accepted and finally adopted.
William, Krantz and Roy Law
rance, well known .Dlllard rancheis,

having deer meat in their possession
contrary to the state game laws.
The men were to be brought before
the justice court this afternoon, but
were allowed to straighten tp other
affairs that they had on hand before
apeparing to answer to the charge.
Both Mr. Krantz : and Mr. Law
rence promised the officers that If ,
the favor asked was complied wi'k
that they wo.uld be in the city to
morrow to enter their plea and as the
case against the accused does not
warrant' leaving the country

ing punishment the officers granted
the request and as a consequence
