WILSON DEMANDS
NO MORE Waste OF
Time ON treaty
Paris June 7.-Presi dent Wilson today served
notice on his colleagues that the situation in
Washington demanded his personal attention

and that he cannot listen
to any further wordy dis
cussions on matters that
already have been fully covered. He
urged that the Germans be given but
brief period in which to give their
answer as to whether or not they will
sign the peace treaty as it has been
modified.
The final reports from all experts
were handed to the Big four To-day
today 1t was stated that complete
agreement has been reached on the re-
ply TO be made to the German coun-
ter-propOsals except as to the length
of time to be granted the Germans in
which to sign. The President is urg-
ing that if the reply is given the Ger
mans by next Tuesday, as now seems
possible, that a final answer be de-
manded by Friday
In their reply to Germany, it is now
certain that the allies will promise
her representation on the commission
of experts who are to determine the
reparations. The allies have also de-
cided to grant Germany material con.
cessions in Upper Silesia. These are
the maximum concessions granted as
a result of the German counter-pro-
posals. Lloyd George is advocating
that the Germans be told at the first
meeting of the league of nations, the
question of admitting Germany to
membership will be taken up. This
next October.
1t is confidently expected the
changes will result in the Germans
signing Count Rantzau and another
member of the peace delegation are
comforting today with German govern
ment chiefs at Cologne on whether
the conference concessions are salts

CITY DECKED OUT
IN GALA ATTIRE To
WELCOME SOLDIERS.
LOOP ABLAZE WITH COLOR FOR
COMPANY c ON ITS ARRIVAL
HOME LAST NiGHT-STORES
BEAUTIFULLY DECORATED.

Ottawa is today decked out in gala
attire, following the decorations
which were placed up yesterday in
honor of Company Cs return home
and never in the history OF the city
were the business houses decorated
so prettily. Every merchant decorated
his windows in some manner, the dec
orations varying from plain with
the insignia OF the order to elaborate
effects built from flags, company in
signals and colors of the division.
Probably the dry goods merchants
who went in for the most elaborate
effects were Lawrence Lucey, c. W.
Irion d Co., Ohio Mercantile Com
pany, Engle. w. f. Stanton. the
Stieiel clothing store, and Carr
MetHger. At the Lucey store the large
windows are beautifully decorated
with flags, white gowns and cut flow
ers. Welcome signs and the con-
pany insignia give the window an in
dividual air Baskets of roses are
used very effectively to carry out the
festival air, and a huge bouquet OF
brilliant red oriental poppies win the
admiration of all who see them.
The Stanton speciality store has
used yellow and black for their color
scheme. An immense welcome sign,
topped off by an American flag, forms
the motif around which the decora-
tiOns are Centered. A huge triangular
shield in gold and black with the 33d
insignia, runs from the top Of the
building to the first story. The shield
is fashioned from folds of bunting, and
large electric lights have been erected
to bring out the beauty Of the display
at night. The south window display
consists of yellow and black garments,
and the north window is all in white,
with the national colors.
At Metzgers ladies' shop peace and
victory are represented by lay figures
beautifully gowned. The window is
deliberately decorated in red white
and blue and in the yellow and black
division cOlors, with welcome home
signs. Baskets of cut flowers in red,
white and blue are arranged through
he windows, giving a very artistic
touch to the creation At the top of
the second story of the building a
huge 33d Division cross has tbeen
raised to welcome the boys home
again.

decorating their places Of business
