OFFICIAL NEWSPAPER OF KLAMATH COUNTY Thirteenth Ycnr -No. 3,501 WILSON SPENDS 10 ai FROM w FRANCE ASKS USE OF AMERICAN SHIPYARDS TO REBUILD HER MERCHANT MARINE HUR- LEY WAITS FOR SUGGESTION MADE THAT RELIEF WORK BE DONE BY INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE FIRST PLANS PROBABLY CONTINUED (By Associated Press). PARIS, Doc. 2-1. Prohident WiImjii will leave Paris to night, and will not lotuin until New Year's Day. He has insisted on taking Christinas dinner with the troops, and eating from a mess kit with the soldiers about him. He will have a formal dinnei with (Jencral Poshing and the officers later. Mr. Wilson has piepared an address for the troops tomorrow, after which he will start for London. Chairman Herbert Hoover of the food administration and Chairman Hurley of the shipping board held a confer ence with President Wilson last night. Suggestions that relief work be placed in the hands of an international com mittee came from some entente countries, but it now seems asHiired that the original plans will be adopted, and the work of supplying food be letained under one head, prob ably Hoover. In the interest of rapidity, Hurley discussed shipping subjects. The French government has applied for per miusioon to rehabilitate its merchant nuuine thru the United States shipbuilding plants. France has reminded President Wilson that she was compelled in the common inteiests of the entente to sus pend the construction of ship? to supply munitions for the entente armies. Chairman Hurley is disposed to withhold American facilities until the peace treaty isvsigned.
