French Socialists
To Force Issue of
Disbanding Army
By Paul Scott Mowrer
Paris, France. Dec 25. The govern
ment having refused to reply to direct
interpellations, the Socialists intend to
make the discussion of the budget, next
week an occasion for public debates on
the questions of Russian intervention.
French demobilization and the transport
crisis. The transportation trouble is
given by the government as one of the
reasons why demobilization is now im
possible and it is also pointed out that
it interferes with the revictualment of
Paris and other regions. The authori
ties assert that when Germany delivers
all the cars and engines promised the
crisis will be alleviated, but the opposi
tion claims that the trouble is largely due
to inefficient administrations.
In France the most urgent question of
the day even tnore urgent than the
great problems of world reorganization-
is that .of demobilization. This person
ally interests everyone in France, the
countrv's manhood havinar now - been
away from home for four -and a half

Less Liberal Than Country
as a Whole.
By Paul Scott Mowrer

Chicago
Daily News..
fCoorriaht. 1918. bv Cbicaan Dally News Co.)
Paris, France, uec z&. nine social
ist members of the parliamentary army
commission, including Pierre Renaudel
and Albert Thomas, have resigned as
the result of what they regard as the
government's refusal to take them into
its confidence. The incident perhaps
marke the beginning of an effort to
overturn the Clemenceau cabinet. Va-;
rious party leaders who have hitherto
supported Premier Clemenceau are pro
testing bitterly against what they call
his dictatorship and his refusal to con
fide even in his own ministry.
Some disinterested observers remark
that while a' man of Clemenceau a

ent type will be more suitable to handle
the Intricate questions of peace. It - is
believed that, the Clemenceau cabinet
is perhaps less liberal than the country
as a whole in its attitude toward the
peace problem. However, if the cabi
net falls it will . doubtless be over some
relatively unimportant Issue' of domestic
politics, for in France as seems to be
the case other liberal countries, it
is hard to overturn the government on
a question of foreign policy.

Paris, Dec. 25. Romaln Holland, abed

to a friend in Paris
'During the last fortnight perusal of

more heavily on me than the fever. The

"Unless they straighten up, I foresee
a century or hatred, new wars or re

not regret the latter If victorious peo
ple show themselves so incapable of

"May they in the midst of their In
