PARIS, Nov. 3O.-The Por-
tugueSe peace delegation is the
first to arrive on the ground for
the conference. They got in to-
day.
Other allied diplomats will be-
gin arriving here next week.
The personnel of the French
delegation probably will he made
known upon the return of Pre-
mier ClemenCeau from London.
The preliminaries will be settlei
at a series Of conferences next week
and the real parley probably will be
under way by Christmas.
None of the representatives Of the
associated powers is taking extern
sive reservations at Versailles. which
is proof that the most important
part Of the work will be done in
the French foreign office.
There will be only formal ratifi-
cation of the various official steps
at Versailles. although Premier
Lloyd George and a few others may
continue to reside there instead Of
in Paris.
No Neutrals Represented.
None of the neutrals that plan
representation here at the peace
conference at this time have made
reservations. It is expected. however,
that the Scandinavian countries will
have delegates here as they are deep
" interested in the freedom Of the
seas problem. There is no tendency
here TO search for controversy in
the Jugo-Slav and Italian situations,
because it might stir up discussions
on these points before the confer
ence really gets under way Only the
enemy would benefit by any such ad-
vance discussions.
Interest to Assessing Cost.
The French public, knowing that
the return Of Alsace and Lorraine is
achieved, are now most interested
in the matter Of making the Hohen-
zollern dynasty personally pay the
cost OF the war.
1t is still believes here that
tremendous amount of work must
be accomplished in the peace pre-
liminaries and, in view of the un-
stall condition Of the German gov
eminent. belief was expressed in
some quarters today that the peace
