WHAT HAPPENED TO 14 POINTS TOLD BY PARIS NEWSPAPERS (By Associated Press) PARIS, Feb. 11 How the allies accepted President Wilson's 14 points In connection with the armistice nego

tiations was revealed for the first time by the Echo De Paris today. It was at a meeting in the office of Stephen PIchon. foreign minister on Nov. 3. 1918. Previous meetings at Varsailles had fixed the military con-, ditions of an eventual armistice and the government chiefs had mt for final deliberation. David Lloyd George, the British Prelmer, the Echo De Paris says, turned to Colonel House and declared: "If we have thoroughly understood President Wilson's thought the armistice negotiations which the American government is disposed to open with Germany in concert with the allied powers are subordinated by the acceptance by the said powers of the principals and conditions of peace, defined by the President on Jan. 8, and in his subsequent speeches. In a word we must give our assent to the 14 points." Colonel House is reported to have answered that that was so. Premier Clemenceau broke in: "as for the 14 points I have not read them yet. Let me know what they are." Colonel House began but after he had read the first point (relative to "open covenants of peace openly arrived at") M. Clemenceau exclaimed that cannot be accepted. "You cannot negotiate In the middle of a public street."

Objections Removed A. J. Balfour. British secretary of state for foreign affairs, explained this point meant only publication ot a result and not the steps by which they were reached and the French premier answered: "In that case my objections

fall to the ground. Reading of the second point In which Mr. Wilson declared In favor of "the freedom of the seas," brought a reservation from Premier Lloyd George but. the Important third point (regarding the removal of economic barriers) and others went through quickly. Only when the seventh (regarding the evacuation and restoration of Belgium), the eighth (declaring all French territory must be freed and restored and that the wrong done France by Prussia in 187L relative to Alsace Lorraine), and the eleventh (in which the future status of Rumania, Serbia and

Montenegro was considered) were read were there further reservations, as the matter of reparation entered into the situation. After all the points had been read M. Clemenceau turned to Col. House, saying: "In case we reject the 14 points what would happen?" "President Wilson would consider conversations he has engaged In with the allied on the subject of the armistice as ended," was Col. House's reply. "Would he also consider as entered the conversations he began with th Germans in October?" asked th French premier. "I can give you no assurance of that" replied Col. House. At thin decisive moment Premier Clemenceau pronounced the sacramental "adopted." Premier Lloyd George hastened the rapid decision by saying: "We reserve to ourselves th rijht to formulate reservations as regards freedom of the seas and reparations."

CARDINALS IN ITALY ASK INCREASES IN SALARIES ROME, Monday, Feb. 9 The Giornale D'ltalia says that the cardinals living in Rome have asked the Pope to raise their salaries as they can not make both ends meet, owing to the increased cost of living.
