pected happens it seems probable that
physical conditions alone will prevent
the accomplishment of more during the
remaining six weeks of his stay.
President Wilson's feeling, on coming
to Europe as early as Ne did, was that
all the Entente governments had made
their preparations to get down to talk
ing peace. 1t is not an overstatement
of the case to say that Mr. Wilson and
the American commissioners have been
disappointed in meeting with delays.
The American delegates are under
stood to feel very strongly that unless
plans arc made to permit the activities
of peace to be resumed i'll warning
countries the rehabilitation of their
armies may bring unwelcome problems.
Wilson Not to Vote
The return Of Mr.. Wilson to the
United States will reduce the American
delegation to four, but it was explained
to-day that delegations will vote as
units, and that the President never had
intended to sit continuously at the
peace table.
Up to the present all the progress
that has been made has been in Presi-
dent Wilson's conferences with
French, British and Italian statesmen.
The detailed conclusions reached at
theSe conferences arc probably known
only to the participants. The Presi-
dent, for his part, is said to have felt
that it was not prudent to disclose en-
tirely what went on, although he in
tends that the proceedings shall go on
in the way of open diplomacy when he
feels it safe to lift the curtain and let.
1t is probable that Lord Hardinge,
former Niceroy of India; Sir Louis
Mallet, British Ambassador to Turkey,
and Sir Esmc W. Howard, British Min
ister to Switzerland, will appear for
Great Britain as extra delegates. Ber-
nard Baruch, Vance Mccormick and
other specialists will be called upon by
the United States Peace Commission.
Changes in the plans hitherto con
sidered were suggested to-day. They

Wilson to Safeguard
Rights Of the Minority
Races at Conference

PARIS. Jan. 10 (By Tho Associated
Press. ).-President Wilson is giving
considerable attention to the problem
Of safeguarding the rights of minority
nationaltes in the peace treaty. The
territories in question are occupied by
mixed races.
The race having an evident majority
will, in principle, determine the future
of the regions in question: but when
that is done the peace settlement, it is
held, must also include complete guar
antees for the protection Of minority
races.
Thus, if Greece should receive addi-
tional territory in Thrace, the rights
Of the Turks, according to this prin-
ciple, would be protected by interna-
tonal covenant. Should Italy or Greater
Serbia have the ultimate possession of
Dalmatia the rights of both races as
we'll as of the Mahometans would be
equally safeguarded.
Some of the methods by which this
can be done, it is pointed out, are pro-
portional representation in representa-
tive bodies, by communal governments
of the minority race where it has
local majority, and by constitutional
guarantees for equal religious and civil
rights.

This statement was made to the cor
respondent to-day on behalf of the
Ebert government. The speaker added:
"The report that martial law will be
declared is incorrect, but we have made
every military preparation demanded
to meet the situation"
Apparently the bourgeoisie are sup
porting the Ebert Cabinet more or less
solidly, if their newspapers are any
criterion. The latest government proc

other bourgeois newspapers speak in
similar strain.
Students Back Noske
In addition to the students of the
University of Berlin, who are support
ing the government, the students of
the Technical College have responded
to an appeal from Herr Noske, the
military governor of Berlin, to place
themselves under his command "for ac-
tive cooperation"
German army officers in Berlin have
taken an oath to support Noske and
are forming their own fighting bat

Delay in the Arrival
OF Delegations Has
Hdmpered Peace Work

PARIS, Jan. 10.-After nearly a
month of waiting and preparation, con-
versations which will lay the founda-
tion of the actual peace congress are
about to start. American delegates feel
that a great deal of progress might
have been made before now if a full
representation of the nations allied
against Germany had arrived promptly.
Suggestions have been made that the
French and American delegations 90
ahead while awaiting the arrival of the
British plenipotentiaries, who are now
expected on Saturday. President Will
son, however, vetoed that plan, holding
that inasmuch as there has already
been so long a delay it would be best
to wait little longer to secure the
participation of the British.
AS many Of the principal questions
to be thrashed out in preliminary con-
ferences concern most intimately the
United States, Great Britain and France,
there is some hope of fair headway be-
ing made while awaiting the Official an
nouncement of the Italian delegation

sentatives. The Belgians will arrive
next week, but, of course, they are in
the status of minor belligerents. They

French Delegates
To Peace Parley
By hampton Hunt
Netc York Tribune
Special Cable SeraScs

PARIS. Jan. 10.-The names of the
French delegates to the peace. confer
ence, which were announced yesterday
afternoon, have been received with
unanimous approval here. The general
opinion is that the French team is
about the best that could have been
selected.
Leon Bourgeois, advocate of a league
Of nations, in view of the stress laid
upon this proposal by President Will
son, was generally regarded as almost
certain TO be one of the French dele
gates. The absence of his name is held
TO confirm to some extent the belief
that the French, at any rate, view the
proposal less favcrably than was be-
lieved week ago.
That the French delegation would
be headed by Premier Clemenceau was
foregone conclusion. and the same
may be said of the appointment of
Stephen Pinchon, the Foreign Minister.
flncnon IS one of Clcmenceau's Oldest
personal and political friends AS a
young man, he was on the staff of Cie-
menceau's first newspaper, LA Jus
tice, and then, after nine years in
POLITICAL life, ne passed into diplo-
aacy-representing his country in Rio
'aneireo, Pekin and Tunis.
Choice of Pichon Popular
Pichon's long tenure in the FOREIGN
office, twice under Clemenceau, twice
under BRAND and once under Barthou.
mas made him an authority on FOREIGN
relations second to none.

has held his present Office FIVE timee

Aristide BRAND, Joseph Caillaux, Raw

lhe French Republic; Paul Painleye
ana now Clemenceau, and has handled
me national finances during the war

ner that has won him the praise of
every expert on finance in France.

best authority on things American in
