London, Jan. 10.—Commenting on the formation of a Czech-Slovak army in France, which was authorized by decree printed in the French Official Journal, Dec. 19, the Vienna Neue Freie Presse says the army already numbers 120,000 men. | “Although it will not have any de cisive influence on the military opera: | tions,” the newspaper adds, “yet it may do us considerable harm in the, event of the transfer of Austrian troops to the western front. The great- est harm, however, is the moral ef- fect this wholesale act of Czech treachery may have on the milittary power of the duel monarchy.” A dispatch from Paris announcing the formation of a Czech-Slovak army said that it was daily being swelled by the arrival of recruits from the United States.

Envoy All Democrats. t All of the members who went to the white house were democrats and most of them supporters of the amendment, but there were several uncommitted. In the delegation were representatives Raker, California; Tayor, Colorad Barkley and Cantrill, Kentucky; Hay- den, Arizona; Gregg and Jones, Tex- as; Ayres, Kansas; Caraway, Arkan- ; Mayes, Utah; Linthicum, Mary-} land; Brumbaugh, Ohio. After Mr. ‘Raker had explained the object of the call each’ member told the president of the situation in his state. One said the president’s advice would aid him in determining the question, and that many other mem- bers were similarly situated. -The president is said to have re- plied that while he had felt it was not proper to send for members or to voluntes’ hix advice, he was glad of the opportunity that the visit of the delegation gave him. He indicated that he had not felt at liberty to go! Deyond the party platform which had; declare woman suffrage to be a state issue, until changed conditions made 4t necessary. Taylor Speaks. Representative Taylor spoke of the king of Belgium's advocacy of woman suffrage, of how England had pledged to it and probably France. The presi- dent said the. governor general of Canada, who had luncheon with him today, told him Canada was going to have woman suffrage. Any member of congress opposed to woman suffrage under any circum- stances, the president said, ought not to vote other than his convictions, but his own opinion was that this was the dime to vote for the amendment.
