ALLIES HAND Revised
TREATY TO GERMANS
Blamed for lnhuman War in
Letter by C!emenceau Which
ReCites Foes Wrongs.

Paris.-The final reply of the allied
and associated powers on the cond'-
tons of peace handed to the Germans
at Versailles May I was delivered 10
the German delegation and made pub
lie soon afterward.
The principles Of the original condi-
tions have been vigorously upheld as
establishing a peace of justice, but GER
tain notifications in detail and many
explanations of the effect of the exc
cution of the terms are made.
The changes include:
A plebiscite for Upper Silesia, with
guarantees Of coal from that region.
Frontier rectifications in West Prus-
Sia.
The omission Of the third zone from
the Schleswig plebiscite.
A temporary increase Of the permit
ted strength of The Germany army
from 100000 to 100000.
A declaration Of intention to. submit
within a month Of the treaty's sigma
ture a list of those accused Of viola
ton of the laws and customs Of war.
An offer to cooperate with Ger
man Commission on ReparationS and
to receive suggestions for discharging
the obligation.
Certain detailed notifications. in the
financial, economic and ports and Wa
terways clauses including the aboli-
ton of the proposed Kiel Canal Com
mission.
Assurance to Germany of member
ship in the League Of Nations.
Georges Clemencean, president of
the peace conference, in his reply to
the German counter proposals, says:
"Justice, therefore, is the only pos
sible basis for the settlement Of the
accounts of this terrible war. Justice
is what the German delegation asks
for and says that Germany has been
promised. But it must be justice for
all. There must be justice for the
dead and for the wounded and for
those who have been made Orphans
and bereayed that Europe might be
free from Prussian despotism.
"There must be justice for the peo-
pies who now stagger under war debts,
which exceed thirty billions, that lib
erty might be saved. There must be
Justice for those millions whose homes
and lands, ships and property Ger
man savagery has spoliated and de-
stroyed."

Provision Made in New Text for
Damage Suffered by America
Before Entering War. !:

Paris-The peace treaty with Ger
many will be entirely rewritten and
reprinted for the incorporation teNtua!-

1t is asserted that the Germans will
be granted eight days within which 10
determine whether they will sign the
treaty.
While unchanged in principle, virtu-
ally new document will be presented
to the Germans. II is understood that
the new treaty will be made public on
the day Of its delivery or the day
AFTER and that the German counter
proposals will be published shortly.
The Council Of Four it develops, de-
cded that simply to attach the reply
to the original document was inprac.
ticable, as important clauses would ha
left obscure and imperfect. Hence the
decision to reWrite the document. IT
was commented in peace conference
circles that this action renders ohso-
lete the text published in the United
States. '-"
Many Of the Emergencies from the
old text in the new treaty are of
minor nature, but some are highly i'm
nortant. This is notably true Of the
second paragraph of Article 232, where

make for damage done the civilian
population of the allied and associated
powers and to their property during

The reply of the allied and associ-

7ar(ed to the German delegates, who
are given five days in which to sign

The German reply to the peace trea-
ty submitted at Versailles on May
maintains that the enemies OF Ger
many have forsaken the peace Of JUS
lice to which they had pledged them
selves in the armistice negotiations for
a peace of might.
It is intimated from Paris that Ger
nuny's admission to The League of Ma

Treaty Fixes Admission to League for
HNear Future"

Paris.-Germany is to be allowed an
ermy of 100000 men for three years.
This is one of rhe changes in the
peace terms which has been kept
secret. The reason given for this dou.
bling of the previous number of elfec-
fives is the impossibility OF adjusting
the armies of Austria, Poland, Czecho-
Slovakia and other new states proper
tionately to the previously arranged

Mrs. Marshall would not hear Of 1t.
She said that Mr.. Marshall would

Innes went back to the sitting room

At last, desperately, she rose to 60.
OF course, he must insist upon going

The good-bys were said. She found
herself walking rebelliously by his

voice was curt, and she had not used
his name, the rising infection helped
a little! Hateful, to stumble over q
rut in the road! Of course, he'd make
her take his arm! Of course!
Rickard grasped her elbow. She
walked along, her head high, her
cheeks flaming, anger surging through
her at his touch.
Stupid to press this companionship,
this awkward silence on her. If he
thought she was going to entertain
him, as Gerty did, with her swift chat
ter, he'd be surprised Any other two
people would fall into easy give-and-
take. but what could she, Innes Har-
din, find to chatter about with this
man stalking along, grimly grasping
her arm? Close as they were, his touch
reminding her every minute, between
them walked her brother and her
