THE PEACE CONFERENCE
IS MARKING TIME

The armistice supposedly ended the
war on November II, 1918. The
Central Powers were whipped and
accepted the terms OF the armistice
without quibbling. II was taken for
granted that the Central Powers At
that time were ready to accept al
most any kind of peace But there
was much ioekeying before the peace
conference got together and set
tied down 10 work in Paris. During
all this time there has been mhh
talk about a league of nations to
prevent all future warfare. The
league of nations idea became the
leading matter and its constitution
IS part OF the treaty of peace.
After nrany days the terms OF
peace was ready to be submitted to
the Germans. They came and were
told. II was understood that Ger
many must sign the terms as present.
ed without any discussion. But
Germany did not sign. For weeks
notes have passed back and forth
and no date has been definitely fixed
for final action.
The Austrians were sent for TO re-
ceive their doom. They came and
were handed only part of what will
be the final treaty. In their case
no signing is possible till the whole
treaty is before the Austrian COM
m ssion.
When the peace conference first
began work all the allies were par
ties to the consideration OF every
thing. Later the smaller allies were
eliminated and the big four became
the whole show. But even the big
four have not gotten on as expected.
Because Italy could not get all II
wanted on the Adriatic, the Italians
went home. In time they come back,
but they are taking a perfunctory
part in the proceedings. though they
have not modified their claims 20
territory on the Adriatic.
There is a great many .hirgs stil
to be settled as the peace conference
is trying to re-adjust the. map Of the
entire world Many peoples are
fighting Justify in much of Europe,
while the discussions proceed in
Paris.
On the whole the outlook for world
peace in the immediate future is quito
gloomy. There are already enough
bad blood over decisions 10 furnish
fuel for future warfare. China was
handed lemon. Japan IS much dis
gruntied because its demand for
equality of races was not granted.
That the people of the United
States arc wsrried over the outcome
is clear The hope of keeping us out
of entangling alliances lies 9th the

THE U. S. SENATE HAS
THE PEACE TREATY

When Senator Lodge reported to
the Senate that he had seen a COPY
of the treaty submitted to Germany.
there was a sensation. The treaty
has been carefully withheld from the
Senators and the blame for this action
laid at the door of Lloyd George
Senator Hitchcock at once demanded
an investigation of the leak and the
Senate agreed TO it. Senator John
son asked that the Senate be fur
nished copy of the treaty and this
resolution was agreed to.
Then Senator Borah a day later
jumped into the lime light by start
ing to read the treaty in the Senate.
The Democrats objected most Wig
orously without success. The treaty
was read into the record and in a few
days will reach every part Of the
country.
The investigation of the leak was
not sensational. Elihu Root came
voluntarily before the committee ard
told how he came into possession of
a copy through regular channels. He
had received the copy from II. p.
Davidson, chairman of the Inter-
national Red Cross league. who had
received it because of the interest of
the Red Cross involved in the treaty.
Financiers and others called as wit.
nesses had not seen a copy. This
will end this matter, no doubt, The
copy Senator Borah read into the
record was brought back by a Chica-
go Tribune correspondent. Copies
are available in Europe after the
treaty was given to the Germans.
Senator Knox of Pennsylvania stir
red up things further by introducing
a resolution that the ieague OF ma
tion matter should not be included
in the treaty. All this fuss is the
result Of the extreme secrecy re-
the provisions OF the treaty.
This could all have been avoided by
a little more consideration of the
Senate which in the end must ratify
the treaty.
