SAYSCLEAN PEACE
|SA|M OF BRITISH
London Correspondent in
Paris Says 1t Will Be Stern
One for Huns.

LONDON. March 20 british Wire
less Service).-The efforts which the
British delegates at the peace confer
ence are making to procure for the
world the cleanest possible peace will
bear fruit in the peace treaty shortly
to be made public, the Paris cor
respondent of the Westminster Gazette
declares. He states on the authority
of "a highly placed parsonage" that
the conference does not mean to vio-
late territorial rights, and that the
fears on this point felt by interested
peoples in Europe are quite unfounded.
The correspondent says that points
of the treaty drawn by Premier Lloyd
George, and which will serve as the
basis for discussion. have been de-
liberately framed in a spirit of great
moderation because it is felt that the
treaty must be something acceptable
and desirable.
Certainly the peace will be a stern
one for Germany" the correspondent
continues, but the greatest care is be-
ing taken that it shall be just to the
eyes of moderate and well informed
Germans. The principle OF self-deter-
mination will be vigorously kept in
mind with regard to the ALLEGATION Of
territories"
The correspondent quotes his in
formant as remarking:
There must be no casus belli left
to Germany, otherwise you will have
blocks of people clamoring for an al
lance with the fatherland." The cor
respondent points out, however, that
Germany had deliberately created a
German-populated wedge in essentially
Folish- territory and that Germany
will have only herself to blame if she
finds her nationals under Polish admin
istration. British influence, the cor
respondent asserts. is nevertheless
definitely arrayed against inflated
pretensions.''
