PARIS, Jan. 6. (Special Cable.)
Among the many reactions produced
by the President's visit to England, one
stands out clear and unqualified, and
that is the closeness of the British In
terests with those of America and the
desire on the part of .the British states
men to accentuate the solidarity of the
two nations.
In seDarate Dublic statements both
the President of the United States end
the Premier of Great Britain agreed
that all possibility of friction between
the two countries was eliminated and
that a working formula had been
reached.
Two Nations Are Together.
From direct intimations given to
American newspaper correspondents
who accompanied Mr. Wilson to Eng
land, . it appears that the two nations
will stand shoulder to shoulder in the
peace conference, and through their
power and example will bring about
the adoption of the league of nations,
which will greatly simplify the details
of the final terms.
The complete rapproachement be
tween Great Britain and the United
States was seen clearly by Von Tirpitz,
who, in the celebrated manifesto issued
in August, 1916, said it was useless for
the Germans to attempt to. deceive
themselves with the hope of the friend
ship of the United States, because soon
er or later Deutschtum would have to
fight. Anglo-Americantsm.
Von Tlrpits Proves Prophet.
He spoke prophetically both as to the
final phase of the war and the new de
velopments of peace.
The rift within the lute that threat
ened to keep the two nations from
playing the same tune was .over the
matter of the freedom of the seas. On
that point, as I said previously in these

PARIS, Jan. 6. (Special Cable.)
Another commission will be dispatched
by the American commissioners within
a few days following the departure of
a special body sent to Austria for in
vestigating purposes. Announcement
of this plan was made today by Colonel
E. M. House. It Is'noteworthy that it
is the first mission to be sent without
representatives of the allied nations
in accompaniment.
' While nothing has been said about
the second body, I am told it will be
organized in a few days and will go
into Germany for the purpose of defi
nitely ascertaining political and social
conditions within the former empire.
As the peace sessions come nearer
the necessity becomes greater for de
termining as far as possible the pre
cise nature of the situation within the
Teutonic realm so that a foreknowl
edge may be obtained as to the proba
bility of the successful enactment of
such terms as may be laid down.
Observers will be charged with the
need of scrutinizing closely the depth
and sincerity of reforms and the course
taken by the National elections to be
held January 19.
The conviction is growing stronger
daily that the allies and America would
have the greatest success with the
Ebert government, since the defeat of
the provisional establishment would be
the signal for a new outburst of Bol
shevism, a recurrence of which would
be more difficult to stop.

the world, however, in the hope that
he might set an example for other

their sons to the Nation.
To the last Colonel Roosevelt had
been preaching "Americanism" and
few realized that his health had been
shattered. It was believed that the
rugged constitution which had stood
him in such good stead through so
many years of "sttenuocs" life would
not fail him and that he would regain
his usual health. His messages of

Lemberg and Kiev are being writtan
in blood-red letters along the western
frontier of Russia, and scores of smaller
ernes lying Detween tne cities also are
