Washington, No 29.—Ambassodor Gerard conferred with President Wi s6n late today -and received final in- structions on views to be presented to the German government regarding the deportation of Belgians and subma- rine warfare. No written communications have been given the ambassad but Mr. Wilson outlined to him fully the atti- tude of the American government to- ward pending issues. The president is understood to have emphasized the unfavorable impression created here by Germany’s treatment of the Bel- glans and to have reiterated that the United States had said its last word on submarine warfare and expected Germany to live up to her pledses. After spending an hour with the president, Mf. Gerard left fof New York. He plans to sail for Berlin on December 5, if his private Wusiness permits. During the day the ambas- sador went to the state department for a final conference with Secretary Lansing and also talked with Secre- tary Daniels and other officials. While Mr. Gerard would not discuss the mat - ter for publication, he is said to have informed the president that Germany undoubtedly is ready for peace on terms satisfetory to her. Whether the ambassador will have a confer- ence in New York with Colonel E. M. House before leaving for Berlin was undecided when he left here. There have been reports here within the last few days that Colonel House himsell would go to Europe in the mear fu- ture, but the colonel has said that he has no such plans at present. * CHICAGO HOUSEWIVES ARE IGNORING TURKEYS.
