Washington, Feb. 4.—Thousands of
claims for additional pay by discharged
soldiers whose, records were complete
at the time they were mustered out,
may be settled speedily by the war de-
partment under a ruling today ,by the
comptroller of the treasury to the ef-
fect that these claims are to be re-
adjusted without passing through the
usual complicated auditing channels.
The director of finance of the war de-
partment was authorized to adjust the
claims when a construction of the law
is not involved and the soldier’s right
is clearly defined.

Employers Grant 20 Per Cent Increase

three weeks has been declared off. The

"After a trip to Kilauea, the active
volcano of Hawaii, my Neolin-soled
shoes were the only ones not abso-

wore hob-nailed boots,” said Miss Jean
P. Lane of Seattle, Washington.
i The sharp jagged lava of Kilauea
cuts an ordinary sole to pieces quickly.
That Neolin Soles stood the test but
emphasizes their toughness and dur-
ability. These qualities are built into
them by a scientific process. Women
—and men and children, too—who are
hard on shoes should buy them with
Neolin Soles. They come in many
styles, and because of the extra wear
they give, are a great economy.

worn shoes with Neolin Soles, which

CONFIRMS APPOINTMENT.
■ Paris, Feb. 3.— (By the Associated
Press).—President Wilson this evening
delivered an address in the chamber of
deputies, having as auditors President
Poincare, the. presidents of the cham-
ber and the senate, and large num-
bers of members of both houses of
parliament, and the personnel of the
French cabinet.
The president went accompanied to
the Palais Bourbon by President Poin-
care, who called for him at the Murat
mansion. Premier Clemenceau and M.
Dubost, speaker of the senate, also
were in the party, which reached the
Palais Bourbon at 5 o’clock.
Military honors were rendered by the
republican guard, resplendent in new
uniforms and full regalia. The presi-
dential party entered the chamber,
amid a fanfare of bugles and the roll-
ing of drums. The band of the repub-
lican guard played the American na-
tional anthem and the "Marseillaise."
those inside the chamber meanwhile
rising and cheering.
The chamber was tastefully decorat-
ed with French and American flags
The spacious room was packed.
President Wilson, President- Poin-
care and M. Clemenceau and M. Du-
bost were given seats facing the pres-
idential chair, which was occupied by
M. Deschanel, who opened the sitting.
Mrs. Wilson, Madame Poincare and
Madame Deschanel had seats in the
presidential gallery, while the diplo-
matic section was filled with many dis-
tinguished personalities. Among them
were David Lloyd-George, British
prime minister; Arthur J. Balfour.
British foreign secretary, and Secre
tary of State Lansing.
M. Deschanel opened the sitting with
a short but eloquent speech of wel-
come, to which President Wilson re-
plied in English, an interpreter trans
luting it into French.
As President Wilson rose and walked
toward the tribune with a quick step,
the deputies, senators and others arose
and applauded for fully five minutes.
which drew the two nations together
in those years, which now seem so far
away, when the world was first begin-
ning to thrill with the impulse of hu-
man liberty, when the soldiers of
France came to help the struggling
little republic of America to get on
its feet and proclaim one of the first
victories of freedom.
"We had never forgotten that, but
we did not see the full meaning of it.
A hundred years and more went by
and the spindles were slowly weaving
the web of history. We did not seem
to be complete, the whole of the de-
sign to be made plain.
"Now look what has happened! In
that far off day when France came to
the assistance of America, America was
fighting Great Britain. And now she
is linked as closely to Great Britain
as she is to France. We see now how
these apparently diverging lines of
history are coming together. The na-
tions which once stood in battle array
against one another are now shoulder
a thing which the heart of America
had long wished to do. When Gen.
Pershing stood at the tomb of La Fay-
ette and said, La Fayette, we are
here! it was as if he had said, ‘La Fay-
ette, here is the completion of the
great story which the first chapter you
started to write.’
“The world has seen the great plot
worked out and now the peoples of
France may rest assured that their
prosperity is secure because their
homes are secure; and men every-
where not only wish her safety and
prosperity, but are ready to assure her
that with all the force and wealth at
their command they will guarantee her
security and safety.
“So, as we sit from day to day at
the Quai d'Orsay, I think to myself we
might, if we could gain an audience
of the free peoples of the world adopt
the language of Gen. Pershing and say,
‘Friends, men, humble, women, little
children we are here; we are here as
your friends, as your companions, as
your representatives. We have come
to work out for you a world which is
fit to live in and in which all countries
can enjoy the heritage of liberty for
which France and America arid Eng-
land and Italy have paid so dear.’ ”

rived here today from London. The

undergo sacrifice that may become in-
tolerable. ,
“And not only she, but the other na-
tions of the world must do the like.
They must be ready for any terrible
incident of injustice. The thing is not
inconceivable.
"I visited the other day a portion of
the devastated region of France. I
saw the noble city of Rheims in ruins
and I could not help saying to myself,
'here is where the blow fell because
the rulers of the world did not sooner
see how to prevent it.’
“The rulers of the world have been
thinking of the relations of govern-
ments and forgetting the relations of
peoples. They have been thinking of
the maneuvers of internationaldealings
when what they ought to have been
thinking of was the fortunes of men
and women and the safety of home and
the care they should take that their
people should be happy, because they
were safe.
“They know that the only way to do
this is to make it certain that the same
thing will not always happen that has
happened this time, that there never
shall be any doubt or waiting or sur-
mise, but that whenever France or any
free peoples is threatened the whole
world will be ready to vindicate its
liberty.
“It is for that reason, I take it, that
I find such a warm and intelligent
enthusiasm in France for the society
of nations—France with her keen vi-
sion, France with her prophetic vi-
sion.
“It seems to be not only the need
of France, but the need of 'mankind.
And France sees the sacrifices which
are necessary for the' establishment of
the society of nations are not to be
compared with the constant dread of
another catastrophe falling upon the
fair cities and areas of France,
“There was a no more beautiful
country. There was a no more pros-
perous country. There was a no more
free-spirited people. All the world had
admired France and none of the world
grudged prance her greatness and her
prosperity. And it has profited us,
terrible as the cost has been to wit-
ness what has happened, to see with the
physical eye what has happened be-
cause injustice was wrought.
“The president of the chamber has
pictured, as I cannot picture, the ap-
pailing sufferings, the terrible tragedy
of France, but it is a tragedy which
could not be repeated. As the pattern
of history has disclosed itself, it has
disclosed the hearts of men drawing to-
ward one another. Comradeships have
become vivid. The purpose of asso-
ciation has become evident.
The nations of the world are about
to consummate a brotherhood which
will make it unnecessary in the future
to maintain those crushing armaments
which make peoples suffer almost as
much in peace as they suffered in
war.
“When the soldiers of America
crossed the ocean they did not bring
with them merely . their arms. They
brought with them a very vivid concep-
tion of France. They landed upon the
soil of France with quickened pulses.
They knew that they had come to do

Paris, Feb. 3.—The text of a treaty
signed on Aug. 17, 1916, between Ru-
mania and the quadruple entente is
published today by the Temps. It em-
bodies the conditions under which Ru-
mania entered the war. Following are
its various articles:
Article 1. France, Great Britain,
Italy and Russia guarantee the terri-
torial integrity of the kingdom of Ru-
mania in the whole extent of its pres-
ent frontiers.
Article 2. Rumania engages to de-
clare war on and attack Austria-Hun-
gary on the conditions stipulated in the
accompanying military convention and
also engages, on the declaration of war,
to cease economic relations and com-
mercial exchanges with the enemies of
all the allies.
Article 3. France, Great Britain,
Italy and Russia recognize Rumania's
right to annex the territories in the
Austro-Hungarian monarchy stipulated
by article 4.
Article 4. This delimits these terri-
tories and adds: Rumania engages not
to raise fortifications in front of Bel-
grade in a zone to be determined later,
and only to keep a necessary force in
this zone for police purposes. The royal
Rumanian government engages to in-
demnify the Serbians of Eanat, who, in
abandoning their properties, wish to
emigrate within two, years from the
conclusion of peace.
Article 5. Engages Rumania and the
quadruple entente not to make a sepa-
rate peace. The quadruple entente en-
gage that the aforesaid territories in
the Austro-Hungarian monarchy shall
be annexed by the treaty of peace.
Article 6. Rumania to enjoy the same
rights as the allies in the peace pre-
liminaries and in the discussion of
questions submtited to the peace con-
1 gress.
Article 7. The present treaty, to be
kept secret until the conclusion of a
general peace.
The military convention follows:
The principal of the seventeen, ar-
ticles are:
Article 1. Rumania engages to at-
tack Austria-Hungary on Aug. 28, 1916.
(Eight days after the Saloniki offen-
sive.)
Article 2. The Russian army will aid
by vigorous' action, notably in Buko-
wina, and the Russian fleet will watch
the Rumanian coast, having the right
of the use of the port of Constanza
(Eustendje).
Article 3. Russia engages to send
into Dobrudja two divisions of infantry'
and one division of cavalry to co-oper-
ate with the Rumanian army against
the Bulgarians, the allies to make an
offensive at Saloniki ate least eight
days before Rumania enters the war.
Article 4. Rumania to receive from
the allies, by way of Russia, munitions
and war material.
Aticle S. The necessities of war com-
radeship in arms being safeguarded, no
contracting party is subordinated to
any other.
Article 9. The principal object of Ru-
manian action will be in the direction
of Budapest through Transylvania. The
Russian troops co-operating with the
Rumanian army will be under command
of the chief of the Rumanian army.
The delimination by article 4 of the
territories in the Austro-Hungarian
monarchy, which it was proposed Ru-
mania, should annex, is as follows:
“The line will begin on the Pruth
river at a point on the present frontier
near Novoselitza; it will mount the
Pruth to the frontier in Galicia, at the .
confluence of the Pruth and the Czere-
mosz. It will then follow the frontier
of Galicia, Bukowina and Galicia-Hun-
gary to the point Stog. It thence fol-
lows the line separating the waters of
the Tisza and Vizo, reaching the Tisza
to shoulder, fighting a common en-
emy.
“It was a long time before we saw
that, and in the last four years some-
thing has happened that is unprece-
dented in the history of mankind. It
is nothing less than this—that bodies
of men on both sides of the sea and
in all parts of the world have come
to realize their comradeship in free-
dom.
“France in the meantime, as we have
so often said, stood at the frontier of
freedom. Her lines lay along the
very lines that divided the home of
freedom from the home of military
despotism. Here was the immediate
peril. Here was the constant dread.
Here was the most pressing necessity
of preparation, and she had constant-
ly to ask herself this question: ‘If
the blow falls, who will come to our
assistance?
“And the question was answered in
the most unexpected way. Her allies
came to her assistance, but many more
than her allies. The free people of the
world came to her assistance.
“And in this way America paid her
debt of gratitude to France by send-
ing her sons to fight upon the soil of
France. She did more. She assisted
in drawing the forces of the world to-
gether in order that France might
, never again feel her isolation; in or-
der that France might never feel that
hers was a lonely peril and would nev-
er again have to ask the question who
would come to her assistance.
“For the alternative is a terrible al-
ternative for France. I do not need to
point out to you that east of you in
Europe the future is full of questions.
Beyond the Rhine, across Germany,
across Poland, across Russia, across
Asia, there are questions unanswered
and they may be for the present un-
answerable. I
“France still stands at the frontier.
France still stands in the presence
of those threatening and unanswered
questions—threatening because unan-
swered; stands waiting- for the solution
of matters which touch her directly
and intimately and constantly and if
she must stand alone what must she
do? She must put upon her people a
i constant burden of taxation. She must
bost also stood. This seemed to em-
barrass President Wilson, who made
gestures that the deputies remain
seated, but they shouted: “Standing:
we will hear you standing.’’
President Wilson turned to M. Des-
chanel, begging him to request that
the deputies be seated, but the presi-
dent (of the chamber shrugged his
shoulders, as if helpless, and President
Wilson began in a low voice, which
gained force as he proceeded.
There was a ripple of applause no
and then as he was speaking, but the
majority of the deputies and senators
were unable to understand English
• clearly; thus the enthusiasm did not
break out until the interpreter trans-
lated the speech.- Then deputies and
senators gave full vent to their feel-
ings.
President Wilson spoke as follows:
"I am keenly aware of the unusual
and distinguished honor you are pay-
ing me by permitting me to meet you
in this place and to address you from
this historic platform.
“Indeed, sir, as day has followed day
and week has followed week in this
hospitable land of France, I have felt
the sense of comradeship ever become
more and more intimate and it has
seemed to me that the making of his-
tory- was becoming singularly clear.
“We knew before this war began
that France and America- were united
in affection. We knew the occasions
By Associated Press.
Paris, Monday, Feb. 3.—President
Wilson was given an unusual recep-
tion by Socialist members of the cham-
ber of deputies this afternoon. They
tried to drown the applause from the
center and the right in an apparent
attempt to show Mr. Wilson that his
ideas were their own. When Capt.
Mantoux, the official interpreter who
translated President Wilson’s address,
reached that part of the speech in
which Mr. Wilson spoke of the society
of nations, the Socialists rose, shouting
“Long live the society of nations!"
Some of them adding, “Down with
war!"
Paul Deschanel, who opened the sit-
ting, said of the plan for the society
of nations:
“Across the chasm of blood and
darkness we see the light of the fu-
ture. We believe that if the.entente,
instead of being formed slowly under
the pressure of peril and under the
necessities of the moment in the shock
of battles, could have been instituted
long before at the Hague, Germany
would never have dared to declare war
upon us. We believe that the thirty-
states which broke reliance with Ger-
many must be the nucleus of a society
of nations. We shall continue with
all our strength and all our heart to
prevent a return of barbarism and to
maintain our dear and illustrious
friendship, which shall be no less fruit-
ful in peace than it lias been in war.”
