PARIS, April 11.--Bitter criticism has

against the selection Of Brussels.
Paul Hymans, Belgian Minister OF
Foreign Affairs. particularly resented the
fact that the subcommittee delibera ting
upon the choice Of the seat OF the league
never discussed the offer made by Burgo-
master Max Of Brussels Of the Egmont
Palace.
Had London. Paris, Rome or Wash
ington been considered" said M. Hy-
mans, I'VE would have withdrawn with
good grace. But when a small city was
decided on We feel that II is Belgium's
right from material and sentimental
point of view that Brussels should have
been chosen.
Had Zurich fought of the German
hordes for fourteen days had Bern been
occupied August 20, 1914. had Geneva
withstood the terrific bombardment to
which Antwerp was subjected, had the
swiss army battled for four years along
the Rhine as the Belgians fought and
died along the User. then we would un-
derstand why Geneva would be chosen.
France was the only one of the great
Powers to vote for Brussels as the seat

FEEDING OF RUSSIA

Truce on Bolsheuik Attacks.

Special Wireless Despatch TO TIE SUE.
Copyright, 1913: oil rights reserved
PARIS. April 11.-Important deciHons
by the Council of -Four regarding Russia,
1t is believed here, are about to be
taken. involving the opening Of the coun-
try to the world. The most interesting
phase of this matter to Americans 10
likely to be that 1t is proposed to feed
Russia largely by means or Amorfpan
food and American money.
The virtual ultimatum which Premier
Lenfne sent to the Peace Conference ex-
pired yesterday. The main points were
that Russia should be opened to COM
merce, should be fed, and that the troops
or the Allies should be withdrawn, lIe-
nine undertaking to recall the Bolshevik
armies operating against the Allies and
call on his propagandists. &
In regard to the plan for feeding the
Bolsheviki through the agency of a neu-
tral commission under the direction OF
Or Fridt1of Nansen. the Arctic explorer.
IL was stated to-day that there could
be no question of a contribution from
the Scandinavian neutrals other than
the orga nization and the men TO carry
~ out. as they have neither money nor
1000 20 spare, except possibly a small
amount OF Norwegian hsh. The greater
part or the food must come from the
Allied Food Commission. which means
In effect from the United States.
From the viewpoint of the neutrals
there would be two motives for ASSUME
ing this obligation. First the Scandina-
vans would thereby assist In stavinE of
Bolshevism, which IL uncomfortable
close to them, and second they would
gain worldwide credit for an act Of hui
msnitarianism. Furthermore, Norway.

and generally to act as a clearing house
on matters OF international labor.
This Office is TO be controlled by a
governing body of twenty -four members,
OF whom twelve are to be selected by
the Governments. each elected by dele
gates at conference representing en-
ploysrs and workers respectively.
The most difficult question. says the
report. was the method OF making the
recommendations effective. especially in
view OF the amendment of the constitu-
tons OF States of control of labor legis-
lation as opposed to Federal control. 1t
was finally agreed that the PROPOSE Is
should take the form either of recon-
mendattons TO be submitted to the va
rtous nations prior to being carried. out
by legislation or OF a draft convention
to be ratified as a treaty.
Machinery also has been provided by
which State failing to carry out its
obligations may be subjected to pressure.
An Industrial association. employers or
workers. may make representations to
the international labor Office. which gov
erning body may communicate to the

Is received the correspondence may be
published. which. the report says. prob
ably would create considerable moral
pressure.

his speech the President spoke with
great earnestness and with some EVIL
dence OF feeling.
Tho President asserted that the Mon
roe Doctrine was enunciated to combat
the Holy Alliance and to hold back the
, threat OF absolutism which was then
menacing Europe and seeking to spread
its absolute power to the Western Hem
jsphere. II served its purpose in keep
Ing this absolute power from the west
ern world.
One of It's great purposes. he said. was
TO maintain territorial and political in
tegrity, and having served its great pur-
pose in the western world. 1t was not
being brought to the lands which had
felt the hand of absolutism and mill
tarism. It was a source OF surprise and
discouragement the President said. to
hear oposition expressed to such a doc
trine and such a purpose.
The Presidents speech closed the dis
cussion. There was no vote. and when
there were no further remarks the chair
man Of the meeting said the amendment
would be considered adopted.
While the text OF the Monroe Doctrine
amendment is withheld, its main fea-
lures are substantially along the follow
ing lines:
Article X. Nothing in this cove
nant shall be construed as invalidat-
ing any agreement, such az the Mon
roe Doctrine. for the maintenance Of
peace"
The exact language OF the amendment
Is closely guarded, and efforts TO procure
copy OF the text met with the state
ment that although there is peculiar
American interest in the amendment
there was no reason for departing from
the definite policy of the commission not
to disclose textual changes in the cove
nant as the work progresses.
The official statement on last nights
session issued this morning does not
mention the action on the Monroe Doc
trine amendment, although 1t has been
admitted officially from other sources
that the amendment was adopted.
The official statement reads:
President Wilson presided at last
nights session of the League Of Ma
tons Commission. The commission
received a deputation from the Inter-
national Council Of Women Suffragists
OF the allied countries and the United
States Lady Aberdeen introduced
deputation who raised several
points OF interest to women. and be-
fore leaving they were thanked by
the chairman, who assured them the
commission appreciated tho merits of
the suggestions. II all of them were
not embodied in the covenant OF the
league, they were told. II was be-
cause II was deemed unadvisable to
burden the league with a multitude
of details before experience had
shown OF what II was capable.

draft of the covenant received from
the drafting committee. and covered

"Our diplomats offer US a

prescribed in the fourteen
points of President Wilson.
The peoples Of the entire

The placard condemns the for

strains and political and armed
interventions. 1t protests
against the expedition to Russia

real peace to which all peoples

DOUBT PAYMENT OF
GERMAN WAR DEBT
u. S. Conferees See Possibility
of Reputation.
By the Assoctafed Press.

PARIS, April l1.--While the members
Of the British and French Parliaments
ars mobilizing for a proposal to exact
nothing less than full Naturalization of
the Allies by Germany for all the costs
OF the war. and are insisting on Ger
manys ability to pay tho full bill, the
American representatives on the Repara-
lions Commission express considerable
doubt whether even the account to be
presented to Germany under the plan
adopted by the Council OF Four (esti-
mated at about s45. 900. 900. 900, with the
payment spread over Il period Of thirty
years) can or will be collected In full.
They assert they can see the posi-
bility that the ways and means OF hold
ing Germany to payment will grow
Feaker as the years pass, and that Ger
many may take advantage of some con-
yenient opportunity In later years to re-
pudiate her obligations to the present
allied Powers under the peace treaty
They recall the action Of Russia in
repudiaung the restrictive Black Sea
clauses of tho treaty imposed at the con-
ciusioni OF the Crimean War at q mo-
ment when a new political constellation
In Europe gave the Emperor of Russia
fair amount OF certainty that Russia
could do this with impunity.
For this reason the American and
mission have opposed a new proposal
which the French brought In TO specify
labor and other acquisitions for the RES
toration of the devastated French prov
inces in the first few years after peace,
maintaining that this revived the prtn-
ciple Of priority as between the various
creditors Of Germany. which had been
re5ected by the commission and the
Council OF -Four.
They argued that France In this way
might receive disproportlonatsly a large
share OF her claims in the first years
while the ability of the associated Gov
ernments to enforce payments was still
good. and that other States dependent
upon later payments in money and ma
terials might be left holding the bag
II Germany proved recalcitrant.
The difficulty probably will be met by
the French offer to account to the other
countries for the cash value OF labor,
materials. cattle and other things ex-
acted for the restoration OF the nine
northern provinces
Germany. although her prisoners will
be released at the end OF the armistice,
probably will be required In the peace
settlement to provide a part of the labor
needed for the rebuilding OF devastated
regions as well as labor at home In the
manufacture or production of materials
TO be used In restoration work.
