PARIS. March 20. (Special Cable.)
President Wilson has returned to Paris
with certain and definite plans on sev
eral subjects that now engross the
world's attention. In re.-pect to other
objects he conies br.ck with open
mind, avoiding commitments until he
fhall have completed a survey of the
situation which has arisen in the 27
days of his absence.
He has plunged ' into the thick of
things through extended conferences
with Premiers Uoyd George and
Clemeneeau and Colonel Hoiihf. and it
is now- possible to outline a tentative
programme which he has laid out.
His return gives not only drive and
peed but also direction to the wheels
of the pjace machine, which have been
spinning; since January.
President Mirk RneoaniKed.
So far as he has made his views
known to others since his arrival, it
may be said that his mind is flowing
along these gene al lines: The presi
dent feels that his absence from this
etorm center has enabled him to gain
a clearer and less distorted perspective
of the main course to he followed.. He
returns invigorated for his heavy
tasks by the support lie 'received in
America, and his vigor ha-j been sharp
ened by opposition. He finds much to
encourage him in the general outlook,
while realizing that difference will
multiply as the clinta . approaches.
Particular!) is he sanguine of the
adoption of the league of nations cove
rant. It may be said authoritatively
that he has no fears on that score at
home, for he is convinced that the
great majority of his countrymen are
ingle-minded in support of the proj
ect. So much does he feel this to he
the case that he Is giving little or no
thought to amendments to the charter
which was given to the world on the
ilay he left Paris.
There m:.y be a few changes, but
they will be of no moment and in 11
probability they will not include spe-i-ific
reference to the Monroe doctrine,
which the president regards atj not even
remotely threatened.

in him a striking resemblance to Pres
ident Lincoln at the end of the civil
war. Consciously or unconsciously, he
has been modeling his conduct after
the example of that great man, in
whose life he nas always found inspira
tion and conuort. Lincoln's plea at
Gettysburg for "charity for all. malice
toward none" is helping to govern the
president at this time. Justice is his
major theme, as he uttered it last Sep-
tembcr in the Metropolitan opera I

want to be just to. but to those to
whom we may not wish to be just."

Icial.) Representative Albert Johnson,
jmiratjon committee in the next con-
gress, will reintroduce on the first day
of the session tho bill providing for
the sutsne-ision of all Immigration for
ihe next four years, he announced on
his arrival homo today from the na
tional capital.
He wil! add to the bill a clause pro
viding for the deportation of all aliens
who w ithdrew their application for cit
izenship in order to evade the draft,'
and anDther clause providing for the
cancellation of the citizenship of nat
uralized citizens who agitated revolt
and preached the overthrow of the
American system of government.
Discussing the work of the next con
gress. Mr. Johnson said it would be of
the greatest importance, and he pre
dicted that the legislators would be
under high-speed pressure from the
very start. He said that investigations
of the conduct of the war are certain:
that the house had been organized with
inquiries In view. '
Ho believed these inquiries would
turn largely on the failure to pay
allotments promptly, the failure to de
liver mail to soldiers overseas, the fail
ure to pay soldiers, and the "fall down"
in air craft production. Johnson says
a league of nations of some sort is in
the air and is certain as the sun shines.
A whole world Is to be rebuilt and re
constructed, and this country iislf is
on the verge of its greatest develop
ment.

nounced here today. .
If the test-case decides that a 2

"Under government regulations the

PARIS, March 20. (Special Cable.)
Visitors returning from occupied Ger
many await with misgiving the results
of the presentation of the preliminary
peace terms for signature by the Ger
man delegates, as signs have appeared
of agitation seemingly designed to ex
cite the populace Into demonstrations
which may spur the delegates to de
mand modifications cf the terms.
Tn respect to the time limit for Ger
man consideration of the terms, it has
been suggested that three days will be
enough, but no limit has been fixed yet.
In the meantime, the manner in
which the peace preliminaries are to
be presented to Germany brings a
seemingly distinct conflict of views be
tween the British and French. I am in
formed. Andre Tardieu stated that as
we are still formally at war with Ger
many the terms should be handed to
Germany by a military delegation un
der the same conditions as the armis
tice. Important Question Rained.
British information is that as the
conditions are not merely military, but
also financial and economic, the Ger
man delegates must be seen respecting
them. This seems to be the reasonable
course, but the matter is still unset
tled. Th preliminary report of the com
mission on responsibilities shows that
an important question has developed
respecting the personal legal responsi
bility of the ex-kaiser from the point
of view of British and American law.
Both maintain that the former kaiser
cannot be made penally responsible for
acts done in his capacity as a sovereign,
such as provoking the war or violating
Belgium, for, in effect, as already
stated, war Is recognized as a legal
method for settling differences.
Specific Chnrjte Required.
To bring the former kaiser to justice
it will be necessary to prove some spe
cific criminal act, such as inciting to
the murder of prisoners or, for in
stance, if he decorated the captain who
sank the Lusitania, which would make

WHEN WE
Former Jeffersonlan Renounces Or
ganization That "Reduces Lib
erty and Increases Taxes."
NEWARK. N. J., March 20. -Asserting
that the democratic party has
"ceased to support democratic princi
ples," former United States Senator Jo
seph W-. Bailey of Texas declared in
an address here tonight that he would
"never again vote for the candidate of
any parfy , which constantly reduces
our liberty and unnecessarily increases
our taxes."
Mr. Bailey, who was the principal
speaker at the "victory banquet" - of
the Road Horse association, blamed
the democratic party for the passage
of the prohibition amendment to the
constitution and for the near passage
of the amendment granting suffrage to
women.
"I have been a democrat all my life,"
he said. "A 'color' democrat, if you
please, and I have never scratched a
party ticket. But those who now con
trol the democratic party have re
nounced or abandoned one democratic
principle after another in such rapid
ity and bewildering succession that
they have left us nothing but the name.
"Since Thomas Jefferson founded it,
the democratic party has ahrays in
sisted that every state should exclu
sively control the local affairs of its
own people, but a democratic congress
immolated that time-honored doctrine
upon the altar of national prohibition
and a majority voted to repeal the sac
rifice in behalf of woman suffrage."
The doctrine of reverence for the
constitution, he declared, had been al
tered until the constitution "was re
garded as an obsolete scrap of paper."
"The liberty we thought worth fight
ing for and dying for," he declared,
"is the liberty of the individual the
right of every man to do for himself
and with his own as he pleases so long
as he does not Interfere with the right
of other men to do the same.
"But in this day they tell us that i!
is better to be good than it is to be
free, and they have multiplied our penal
statutes until the lawyers cannot carry
even an index of them in their minds.
We have restricted the rights of men
until no civilized country on the globe
interferes with the habits, the pleasures
and the business of its people as much
as this free government of the United
States."
PERSHING HIGHWAY IS AIM
San Francisco-Tew York .Road

LINCOLN", Neb., March 20. A "Per
shing highway," extending from San
Francisco to New York, will be perma
nently organized here next month, ac
cording to plans of a temporary organ
ization formed here recently to carry
out the project.
Invitations were sent by Governor
Samuel R. McKelvie today to gover
nors of states - through which it is
planned to have the highway pass,
asking them to send representatives
here April 16 to make permanent the
highway's temporary organization.
Cities and towns in which events in

would be on the highway, including

SALONIKI, March 201 The Greek
victory at Kherson, northwest of
Odessa, was won over a bolshevik force
of four times the strength of the
Grek division encased, according to a
Greek headquarters statement issued
here.
The statement declares the bolshevik
armies have been reorganized and are
under command of German officers, a
large number of whom participated in
the battle.
The Greek troops realized an advance
to the depth of a little more than 12
miles, capturing numerous, prisoners
and considerable booty. In spite of re
inforcements, the bolshevik troops have
not been able to reconstitute their line,
the statement adds.
LONDON. March 20. Virtually all of
the Ukraine is now in the hands of the
bolsheviki, according to advices reach
ing London today. In heavy fighting
at Nikolaiev, northwest of Odessa, the
bolsheviki lost between 5000 and 8000
men, but forced the French garrison,
after fierce fighting, to withdraw to
Odessa by sea.
Isthmus Is Reached.
Farther east, . the advices add, the
bolsheviki have reached the isthmus of
Perekop, leading to the Crimea.
The Bolsheviki apparently are en
gaged in a strong effort to subdue
Russian opposition in the Ukraine and
to drive allied forces from that region
before spring. If Ihe bolsheviki can
control the great agricultural region
of the Ukraine, they might relieve the
serious food shortage in Moscow and
the north.
The troops of the Moscow govern

SEATTLE, March 20. Voluntary sur
render to the police of Dudley M. Storrs,
Okanogan, Wash., automobile mechan
ic, and forwarding of a charge of ab
duction against him by Prosecuting
Attoorney W. A. Gresham of Okanogan
county from here, were new angles In
the case today in which Ruth Garrison,
18, is charged with first degree mur
der for the death of Mrs. Storrs yes
terday by poisoning.
Mrs. Storrs died a few minutes after
eating a poisoned fruit cocktail in the
restaurant of a department store. "Yes
terday. Miss Garrison, the police an
nounced, confessed to stirring poison
into the cocktail because of her infat
uation for Storrs.
Tomorrow the girl will be arraigned
in superior court. There was no indi
cateion tonight that she would attempt
to recede from her alleged confession
of guilt, but detectives questioning her
during the day were said to be working
on the theory that she alone was not
responsible for Mrs. Storrs' death. Miss
Garrison, however, tonight stoutly
maintained to officers and others that
she alone planned the poisoning.
Storrs 13 en Irs Complicity.
Storrs arrest ended a search for him
that had been, on ever since Mrs. Storrs'
death on Tuesday. To officers who
grilled him at police headquarters to
night, lie said he had come to Seattle
as fast as he could upon learning of
his wife's death. He denied, the police
said, that he had any knowledge of
Miss Garrison's alleged plan to do away
with Mrs. Storrs, and corroborated
features of her story concerning hit
relations with Miss Garrison during
the periods when she visited him at
Okanogan.
No charges have been placed again. si
Storrs by the Seattle police, but upon
orders of-Chief J. F. Warren he was
taken into custody for investigation.
All day long a stream of callers came
to see Miss Garrison in her quarters at
the city jail. Flowers and notes ex
pressing sympathy were sent in pro
fusion. To callers she said:
"Now I know .who my real friends
are.
Prosecuting Attorney Fred C. Brown
today endeavored to close all avenues
of escape against Miss Garrison should
she plead "not guilty" tomorrow.
;irt Hum But One Wish.
Ruth Garrison, herself, was the on
who caused all eyes to turn toward .
Htorrs, who was reported to be on his
way to this city from Okanogan in re
sponse to a telegram from lijs mothe;-.
Mrs. Sibylla M. Storrs, 2434 Tenth ave-
nue north, li.ss Garrison in her cell.
I girl homicide asked over and over
again, in one iorm or anotner last
night and today. Her crime occupied
no part of her thoughts, apparently; all
she was anxious to know was whether
the man for whom she had committed
the supreme crime would turn away
from her, now that she had been found
out by the world.
"Surely Doug would stand by me,"
said the girl.
Other developments of the day in the
Storrs-Garrison case were: An ex
amination was given Miss Garrison to
day by Dr. Don Nicholson, prominent
alienist, as to her mentality. The alien
ist was with his patient almost two
hours at the city jail, he having been
sent there by Prosecuting Attorney
Fred C. Brown. The inference was
itself to meet a possible plea of in
sanity ;" probably emotional insanity.
Information Is l'lled.
Information foinalIy charging Kutli
Garrison with murder in the first de
gree was filed in the King county su
perior court at noon today.
Dr. Donald A. Nicholson, prominent
alienist, after talking to the girl in the
city jail today, reported .to Prosecuting
Attorney Fred C. Brown that he con
sidered Miss Garrison sane.
Deputy Prosecutor Carmody Bald Miss
Garrison will be arraigned before Pie
siding Judge Boyd J. Tallman in tho
superior court tomorrow afternoon at
1:30 o'clock and if she pleads guilty
Cannody will ask the court to Imme
diately impanel the jury.
Even if found guilty of murder in
the first degree, the law would not per
mit Miss Garrison to be hanged, said
officers today.
The statute passed by the last ses
sion of the legislature is not yet in
effect, they said.
Miss Garrison's confession, It becamo
known today, came after the girl for
hours had protested her innocence and
only after an unnamed woman, .who
said she sat near Miss Garrison In tho
tea room, had told the authorities o'.
