As to the proposed settlement os
the German colonial problem. the ar

In the matter of the league of ma

Delaying Tactics May Pre-

with Hopes Realized.
CRISIS DUE THURSDAY
Departure Of President May
Be Put Off Until
Sunday.

Paris, Feb. 1.-THE league of ma
tions committee of the Peace Con-
ference struck n snag tbs morning.
when the completed draft of the
leagues constitution was considered
Fear was expressed tonight In
American quarters that the rough
edges of the draft might prove n
stumbling block preventing President
Wilson from returning home with the
league an accomplished fact.
It is understood that obstructonist
tactics are delaying action. though
the United States, Great Britain and
Italy have been in accord thus far.
The drafting committee meets again
tomorrow, and a meeting of the full
committee is scheduled for Thurs
day.
Thursday Decides Question.
Thursdays meeting will tell the
story whether or not the President
will be successful, for on that day it
will be a case of getting a complete
agreement of all allies upon the COM
pleted constitution OF the society of
nations or going home with only bit
ter memories OF the obstructionist
tactics here.
President Wilson planned today to
leave Friday for Brest. preparatory to
sailing for the United States. There
was a possibility that his steamer
might not leave before Sunday. The
Presidents party. it was learned. will
include Earl Reading, French Ambas-
sadOr Jusserand, italian Ambassad dor
Cellere and Franklin ROoevelt As
sistant Secretary of the Navy.
Foreign Secretary Balfour, replying
to correspondents questions regarding
the alleged threat to move the Peace
Conference. said it was conceivable
that the press of n large city, by
keeping up certain propaganda, might
create an unhappy atmos pherc that
would interfere with the work of the
conference and render its removal to
neutral country desirable But if
such situation was created, he said.
he thought it could be adjusted.
Balfour said he believed the ques-
ton of freedom of the seas will dis
appear with organization of the league
of nations, under which all will enjoy
that privilege except bandit ma
tions"

excitement and irritation apropos
the happenings at the Paris Peace
Conference. Three main currents of
thought are manifested:
l. Opposition against the manda-

German colonies.
?. Opposition against the league

3. Bitterness against the prevail
