Rifles in trench dim in the

was like hail on a roof. The

out that Alsace-Lorraine was

that it had merely been restored
to Germany in 1871.

future freedom of navigation that

Fourth-Guarantees for reduc-

Fifth-Free, open-minded and

strict observance of the principle
that in determining all such
questions of sovereignty the in
terests of the population con-
cerned must have equal weight
with the equitable claims of the
government whose title is to be
determined.
Sixth-Evacuation by the Gen.

and political independence of that
nation.
