PRESIDENT WILSON LEAVES NEXT WEEK An Army Transport Will Be Turned Over to Use of Newspaper Men v WASHINGTON', Nov. 27. Presi dent Wilson's plans for attending the peace conference are all " matured, with the exception of the day and the hour of sailing. His departure, how ever is certain early next week. It is entirely probable that the first announcement of the personnel of the American delegation will be made la the president's address to the opening of congress, to be de livered Monday or Tuesday. At the same time the president may take occasion to make ' something in the nature of a statement to the country. as weli.as to congress, on his going to Europe, something no other presi dent has ever done. The most important announcement yet made In connection with the of ficial plans for the peace conference came today. It was that there would be absolutely no censorship on the news the American newspaper cor espondents send back -home. At the personal request of President Wilson both the British and French govern ments will relax all censorship on all American newspaper dispatches telling of the deliberations. Fur thermore to facilitate the transmis sion of pews . to this country, the government, through its recently acquired CDTitrejt3t,cattie lines, will give news preference in transmission second only to' government official business. ,, , George Creel, chairman of the com mittee on public information, an nounced today that the. -committee's machinery In Paris would exercise nothing whatever approaching a cen sorship on dispatches telling of the progress' of the conference. All the committee's facilities, Mr. Creel said, are to be devoted to helping Amer ican newspaper correspondents to tfet the news back home. The commit tee's offices in Paris will be used as headquarters for newspaper corres pondents; stenographers, typewriters and Interpreters are to be provided, and the committee's machinery also will be used to assist the correspon dents to get their dispatches on the cables. - Until two or three days ago there were grave doubts as to whether any American4, newspaper correspondent would be permitted to accompany President Wilson on his trip. There was, however, to be no restriction on the passage of newspaper men to France by any means they might find available. Mr. Creel took the posi tion that the American people should be Informed of the movements of the ' president at all times, through their only source of information which is the daily newspapers and upon his representations It finally was decided to include a correspondent of the As sociated Press and correspondents of other press associations in .the pres ident's official party aboard the liner George Washington. It was decided at the same time to give passage to correspondents of Individual news Papers on the army transport Oriza ba, which sails from Hoboken Sun day at noon. She will be part of the convoy of the president's ship, which (Continued on page six) ANOTHER LIBERTY LOAN IN APRIL One More Great Popular Bond Campaign f)r About Five Billions of Dollars It Outlined by Secretary of Treasury WASHINGTON.

(By The Asso ciated Press.) The question of con ducting the proceedings of the peace congress in English is being dis cussed, with some prospect that this innovation will be brought about. If It Is. it will be the first rreat in ternational congress with English a3 the official language, as French has long been recognized as the medium of diplomacy. Tor practical reasons, it Is 'said, the use of the English language would be more convenient to a larger number of tbe delegates than French, for during the sessions of the inter allied conference all but two of the delegates spoke English, whereas a considerable number did not sneak French and were unable to under stand the proceedings when French was used. The printed record of the dailv proceedings will be in both French and English for the convenience of all, and, in addition several of the governments probably will have their own publications, dealing with the developments. Economic questions are cotuing prominently to the front in connec tion with the presence here of Her bert C. Hoover, the American food administrator, who was joined tjdiy by Edward N. Hurley, chairman of the shipping board- They conferred lengthily this afternoon at Colonel House's residence on food distrlou-' tion and tonnage. . France needs a considerable amount of tonnage for the rehabili tation of her merchant shipping lost during the war. One plan Is a gov ernmental project involvtng the ex penditure of approximately 1.000, 000.000 francs. There has been considerable dis cussion also as to the amount of ton nage likely to come from the United States following on Captain Tardien's statement recently that he had been assured of 100,000 tons. The pres ence of Mr. Hurley Is giving an op portunity to go over these and other shipping questions. Portland May Boycott California for Mooney PORTLAND.

Thirty-six unions have yet to announce the 'result of their vote on the proposal. t TO IICY HO ISIiAND PMXT. PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 27- An nouncement that he government. through the Emergency Fleet cor poration, had definitely, decided to purchase the real estate of the Hog Island shipyard and thus become sole owner of the great shipbuilding establishment, was made today by 11. L. Ackerson. an officer of the corporation. The real estate Is owned by the American Internation al corioratlon and Is valued at II. 760.000. The government has ex pended approximately 160,000,000 on equipping the plant. As for those statues in the "alley of victory" In Berlin, why nbt set 'em up in the other alley? j ning December 5. to provide funds for running government until pay ments from the firth war loan begin to come in. These payments then will be used to pay off the certifi cates. Every bank will be expected to subscribe five per cent of its gross resources monthly to these certifi cates. The first issue of $600,000 minimum, announced today, may be subscribed between December 5 and December 10. will mature next May 6 and will bear 44 Pr cent. This ratA Is not considered as indicating the interest to be borne by the firth loan. Mr. McAdoo also disclosed today that the governent's expenses this month probably will run to a new high record or $2,000,000,000. and that "the wise policy of prompt liqui dation of contracts" may increase rather than lower the government's outlays.
