PEACE FIRST PROBLEM
 OF CONFERENCE
CBy Andre Charadame)

For many reasons, following the French proverb, don't put the cart be- fore the oxen. Solve first the most urgent practical problems arising from the war, problems that must be solved in order to bring an end to the suffer- ings of millions of human beings, suf- ferings that have already lasted only too long. It is easy to see in what or der these essential problems before the conference should be put.
 The first is the reparation and res titution the German people must make, both of objects stolen and ma terial damages caused. It is not jus tice only that demands the immediate solution of this problem. Its solution is the single condition of victory, as has been said. The peace will only be durable and assured if in conse- quence of her enormous thefts and war expenses Germany will not be able to preserve an economic super iority over the Allies.
 The second problem, and which can be taken up at the same time, IS that of the territorial reconstruction Of Europe by the adjustment of frontiers and by forminp new states to raise a barrier against the pan-G -Germanists, such states as Poland. Bohemia, Ru- mania, the Magyar state and the Ju0o- Slav state
 The problem of the League of Ma tions comes in the third place, cut it will then be in a position for more favorable consideration. It is clear that if the two first problems, repar- ation and territorial reorganization or icyfa a4 al Qor lIr ha Entente it will be relatively easy to solve the third, as the world, con vinced by what the Entente will have done, will want to transform the En- tente into a League If Nations Of greater extent by taking in all the na- tions worthy of Q place.
 Last comes the question of the freedom of the seas.'' And by com ing last it has the best chance for success. It is easy to understand that a real and durable solution of that problem can, only follow from the eX- tension of She League of Nations. Such an extension implies a real dis armament in Europe, but this dis armament can only come about after Prussian militarism has been abso- lutely destroyed Land disarmament having been accomplished, it will be relatively easy to dlsarm on the seas and from that will result the free . dom of the seas"
 In short, when England can be as- sured of not being menaced by any continental power. she will have no longer any interest in carrying the huge burden of naval supremacy This program for the consideration of the problems before the peace con- ference is only an application of com mon sense. But it is indispensable to assure victory that this order shall be followed. Therefore. public opinion must demand that the League of Ma tions and the freedom of the seas shall be discussed only in their logi- cal place, that is, after all the urgent problems growing directly ont of th" wah have found a practical solution Copyright. 1919.

circus is to be repeated this year will be most welcome to many who en- joyed the circus as it was given last year.
