TRIP HISTORY MAKING ONE
Battleship and Five Fast Destroy
er Will Be Convoy;. Hour of
Sailing Is Unknown.
NEW TURK. Nov. 19. The American
transport George Washington, selected
by President Wilson to- convey to
Kurop himself and other members of
the American delegation to the peace
conference, will be convoyed by the
battleship Pennsylvania and a fleet of
five fast destroyers. The George
Washing-ton Is lying tonight at her
pier In Hoboken in readiness to sail on
her history making trip at a moment's
notice.
To Rear Admiral Cleaves, com
mander of the cruiser and transport
force of the Atlantic fleet, fell the
honor of providing for the presidential
ship, arranging details of the voyage
and the protecting force of war vessels.
and selecting the transports com pie
meet of officers and men. Captain
Kdward McCanley. U. S. N.. commands
tho George Washington, and the crew
has been drawn entirely from tho
navy. The escorting battleship is com
man Jed by Captain Lewis Nulton.
Great Uaer Was Genus. ,
The George Washington, a vessel
75,530 gross tons, was formerly one of
the crack liners of the North German
Lloyd fleet. Although she has been
nsed as a troop transport for more
than a year, many of her luxurious
cabin suites were not removed and the
best of these have been reserved for
the pres'dential party.
When launched In 1)08 the ship was
named by Dr. David Jayne Hill, then
American Ambassador to Germany, and
It waa the only large German vessel
seised by the United States the name
of which was not changed.
Capable of making abont 21 knots
speed at that time, American marine
engineers have Improved her engines
and It is possible that she will establish
a new record for herself on the coming
voyage.
Tm ef Departure) No Knows.
The exact time of the departure of
the George Washington Is not yet
known, but today the engines of the
big liner were given a lost testing out
at the dock at which she is made fast
prepared for the arrival of the presi
dential party.
The ship Is lying convenient to
pur track over which the President's
train will arrive. The pier and track
will be under guard of soldiers and
sailors and secret service men.
ESCORT FLEET ALL-AMKKICAX
Formidable Array of Battleships
Will Greet President.
LONDON. Nov. 30 President Wil
son on reaching European waters In all
likelihood will be escorted to Brest by
only American warships, but by a
formidable array of them. In view of
the lack of official notification regard
ing Mr. Wilson's trip, it Is understood
that neither the French nor the Brit
Ish governments have been requested
to aid In the naval reception. The Brit
uh authorities, however, unofficially
are discussing plans to- welcome the
American President should . he com
here.
American ' battleship commanders,
probably all nine or them In these
waters, are ' understood to be holding
themselves In readiness to proceed to
a point 100 miles or so off Brest to
meet the presidential liner and the bat
tles hip accompanying It across the At
lantic It is probable that 14 American
torpedo destroyers will Join In the re
ception.
Thar la no likelihood. It Is stated
here, that the warships will proceed as
far as the mid-Atlantic for the meeting
as naa neen stated.

ment Commission, and Professor H. D.
Scudder. of Oregon Agricultural Col
lege, farm management specialist.

ments concerned.

are most likely to be overworked and
become diseased. When such is the case.
various troubles or a digestive ana
eliminative character occur, and such
troubles are so frequent and so com
mon that it Is absolutely nicessary to
find some relief. Warner's Safe Kidney
and Liver Remedy was compounded
over 40 years ago to help equalize the
work of both kidneys and liver. How
successful It has been Is evidenced by
its wide-spread sale and its value is
attested by an Immense number of sp

many years have put it to the severest
tests with the most satisfactory re
sults. "I wish to say that your remedies
have been used in our family for about
fifteen years. We are never without a
