Simplicity" DR.. John Bates Clark. of
Columbia University, told the New Yorl,
Peace Society in a lecture yesterday
afternoon.
An Allied victory appeared to him
the first requirement for league OF
nations, and that league would con-
tain the thirteen Allied nations, welded
together in federation more forma!
than the present alliance.
"a peace treaty between the two
leagues now at war will give no assur-
ance Of permanent peace unless it is
made dangerous for one or other side
to break it," he said 'The keeping
of treaties has never been a prevalent
virtue of states; it has not quite in
variably been an American virtue. and
if q treaty will not control a nation
which believes in keeping them it GER
tainly will not control "a nation which
openly sneers at treaties.'

Seeks to justify
Ceding Of Choln

into a long defence Of the original
treaty Of peace with Ukraine, and an

said, has declared the state of war be
tween Russia and Austria Hungary at
an end and, so far as human judg-
ment can foresee, state of war will
not again arise between these two

Responding to German cries of help
from Esthonia and Livoniu, Germany
resolved TO march further into the in

destruction those unhappy nationals
living in those provinces. In full ac-
cord with our allies, we decided not
to participate in this military action
Our aim, therefore, remains what it
was bcforc-to bring help as speedily
as possible to the Austro- Hungarian
nationals still on Russian soil"
-U.VUV PRISONERS released
DR.. Von Seydler announced that 20
GOO prisoners had already arrived from
Russia, and that negotiations would be
resumed with the Petrograd govern

In explaining the appointment of the
commission, the Premier declared that

I'VE accepted this standpoint for the
occupied territories" he continued.
"and all the negotiations at Brest-
Litovsk were conducted on this basis.
We recognized this right for the peo-
plies of lithuania, Courland and Poland.
and no logical or moral ground could
be discovered for depriving the Ukrain-
ians of the right granted to other Rus
sian peoples.
Right TO Be Heard"
"The members Of the Polish Club
cannot deny the existence of a large
Ukrainian population in Cholm, and
that this nation has the right to be
heard | go even farther and say it
was the duty Of the Austro- Hungarian
government TO conclude peace with the
Ckrainians.
What was secured at Brest- -Litovsk
was peace for the people, and the
Austro-Hungarian peoples would never
have understood if we had rejected this
peace or rejected the possibility of OBJ
tanning wheat merely in order that
Choim in its entirety and uncondition-
ally should fall to Poland. What would
the empires reply have been if the
Foreign Minister had returned and ad-
mltted that he had spoiled the chances
OF peace because he refused to the
rkrainian population of Cholm the
same right TO be heard as is possessed
by the Polish part"

Had we acted as the gentlemen Of
the Polish Club demand, we should not
only have failed to conclude peace with
Ukraine, but should have severed the
delicate threads, which may perhaps
lead to a general peace and the voices
raised in defels&c of such a policy would
have been drowned under raging hur-
ricane of indignation from all the Aus
trlan races.
"ln view of these various considera

certain insinuations which have been
made concerning the relations between
Austria Hungary and Germany"
The Premier's speech was received

showing occasional signs of dissent.

The honest desire for peace expressed
by Chancellor Won Hertling, continued
DR.. Paasche, had been rejected by these

PARIS. Feb. 2O.-The capitulation of

has caused regret here. but no sur

needed. The advantage obtained bv
the Germans from dissension among
the Russians gives some idea, he saws.
of the benefits which dissension in
other quarters would surely confer
upon them.
The echo dc Paris" expects that the
event will "instil little more COM

French Revolution or to expect the
revolutionary ferment TO spread from

ideas, 1t asserts, stand In the way of

which several other newspapers also

All the newspapers agree that Rus

to make the best terms possible.
