SHORTHAND 70 FIGURE
FOR FIRST TIME N
SlGN|N6 TREATY OF PEACE

Warrington, June 0.-xfoOoOly 1oS
the first time In the signature Of an
International treaty. shorthand chafac-
tiers will appear when the seals are at
tachsd to the treaty Of Paris. which
will mark the omciel termination Of the
World War nsxt Saturday. President
Wilson will confirm his signature by
an impress upon wax Of his own name
written in shorthand upon . seal ring
which he always wears. The President
must sign and seal NO less than . score
Of treaties with the nations that par
ticipated in the war. There 10 pres
idential seal. but this 10 used at the
White House solely for stamping en-
velopes and letterheads. 1t is almost q
reproduction in diminished size of the
great seal Of fAs United States, save
that the stars are arranged In an arc
above the. eagle instead Of In a. circle,
and that it bears the legend President
of the United States of America" on
the encircling belt.
The great seal Of the United States
will appear twice in connection with TIE
treaty or treaties: first upon the article
sienifying the ratification OF the treaty.
and second upon the proclamation
which the President will issue inform
ing the world Of the completion Of the
convention. But authorities on trea.y
making agree that the seals to be at
tached upon the first signing Of the
treaty must be those of the individual
signers.
This is a survival Of the medieval
custom Of attaching the sign OF the
arms" of the signatory. generally
some belted knight or noble Of high
degree.
All of the American secretaries of
state have had their private seals.
Secretary Bryan taking great pride
in the possession Of an ancient stone
of Ptolemy's time. representing a
conventional bird with a branch.
which Bryan preferred to regard as
the original bird Of peace" 1t was
this seal that appears upon each of
the q arbitration treaties which Mr..
Pryan esteemed as his greatest ac-
complishment
AS never before has the President
OF the United States been known to
sign treaty. making another prece-
dent. it was necessary for Mr.. Will
son to duly accredite himself as a
plenipotentiary authorized 70 neeo-
tiate and sign the Paris treaty. This
he did by causing Sidney Smith.
chief Of the diplomatic bureau OF the
state department. who accompanied
him to Paris, to prepare full powers,
IN his own name which he duly sign.
