BIG FORCE is READY
TO ADVANCE JUNE "a.

Paris, June 1.-THE majority of
the members of the peace conference
believe that Germany will not sign
the peace treaty, according to Marcel
Hutin in the Echo De Paris, who
made a canvas of a number of the
leading personalities of the peace
making body. Only one of these
leaders, M. Hutin declares, express
ed the opinion that the Germans
would not accept the revised treaty.
This member, however, is one whose
opinion the writer says, he holds in
the greatest esteem.
The delegate in question, M. Hutin
explained, based his opinion that the
Germans will sign the treaty on the
fact that they have knowledge that
at yesterdays meeting of the Council
of Four a complete agreement was
reached on the consequences which
would follow Germany's refusal OF
the peace proffered. They were
aware, the delegate pointed out, that
force, in accordance with President
| Wilson's Baltimore speech and that
orders had been given for an Allied
force of 100000 men assisted by
heavy artillery of hitherto unreveal-
led power, to begin an advance on
the morning of June "a.
Confronted by such realities.
which alone count with them, the
German government and the nation
al assembly at Weimar, in the dele
gates opinion, would sign the treaty

WILSON'S ATTITUDE TOWARDS
REVISED PEACE TREATY.

Paris, June 16.-Here is President
Wilson's attitude towards the revised
peace treaty with Germany as out
lined TO Universal Service tonight by
one of his closest friends and con-
fdants:
"The peace treaty is just. Natu-
rally it is severe. However, we must
always remember that Germany pro-
voked the war and committed in
describable atrocities and outrages.
"The bill for these now is pre-
sented to her. She must pay. We
will not bargain. Rather than bar.
gain we shall accept non-signa.

ing official business he will start on

It was said at the White House to-
day that the president expects to
spend three weeks on his speaking
tour, explaining the peace treaty and
the League of Nations covenant. He
expects to visit the principal cities
over the country.
The president has made known a
desire that his audiences during this

Regulars Held Back.

Washington, June 1.-THE fourth
and fifth divisions of regulars have
been removed from the list of units
scheduled for early return to the
United States, the War Department

These two divisions were sched-

CABINET MAY ASK FOR
A VOTE ON TREATY

Germany's answer to the Allied
peace terms must be presented to the
peace conference at or before 6:49
p. M, Paris time, Monday, June %.
The FIVE day period originally given
the enemy delegation to accept or re-
|ject the terms was extended 4S hours
by the conference yesterday.
! Count Won Brockdorf- -Rantzau,
head Of the German peace mission,
left Versailles last evening for Wei
mar, where he will arrive today. Ac-
cording to- adyices he will at once
confer with the German cabinet,
which will; send the revised treaty to
experts wlo will report as soon as
passihis. -" ,.....-
The. terms will be laid before the
German assembly Wednesday and it
may be that7the cabinet will ask that
a vote be taken on acceptance or re-
/ lection, so that it may act as having
"a mandate from the German people:
It is expected the consideration Of
the pact will be continued by the
cabinet until Friday and that the
final German answer will be laid be-
fore the assembly for ratification on
Saturday.
Immediately after the assembly
! has acted, it is expected the chief of
! the German delegation will start on
his return trip to Versailles.
The detailed reply, summary OF
which was made public in Paris Mon
day night fails to make material al
terations in the fundamental feat
ures of the treaty.
There are some concessions but
they appear to be Of rather minor
mature compared with the demands
made by the Germans in their pro-
posals. One Of the principal conces-
sions is the admission Of Germany to
the League of Nations Sin the early
future" if she fulflls her obligations.
A notable feature Of the Allied re-
ply was the covering letter by Pre-
mier Clemenceau, president of the
peace congress, which was scathing
arraignment of Germany for launch
ing the war and conducting hostili-
ties so ruthlessly. 1t pointed out
that the German people supported
the war and that the peace OF
Justice" demanded must be one OF
Justice not only for Germany but for
the other peoples of the world.

BALLOON, NOT PLANE,
SAYS PILOT OF N. CA.
by Harold E. Bechtol, European
Manager of the Newspaper En-
terprise Association.

Paris, June 17.-Pin your faith IN
the future to the diirigible balloon
not the airplane.
Lieutenant Commander A. c..
|Read, who piloted the N. CA across
THE Atlantic, says the balloon is bet
ter.
Though it was an airplane in
which he and his crew of United
States naval men made the first
transatlantic flight in history, Read
told me in an interview in Paris,
where he came after the great recep-
,tion accorded the N. ca crew in
England, that much time would
elapse before the airplane could be
properly developed for world COM
mercial uses.
"Back to the balloon flying for
me-" said Commander Read. 'That's
my old game-and I believe that in
dirigibles lie the greatest possibilit-
les of the immediate euture.
"Understand though that there is
no doubt whatever about the wonder
full future of the airplane. But it
may be some time before enormous
planes of the right type are develop
ed for commercial purposes or for
extensive use with the fleet.
"But there is no reason why bal
looms cannot be used commercially,
for the carrying Of passengers and
freight, any time. They are capable
now of weeks trip"
Commander Read was more eager
to talk of the early prospect of get
ting home.
"I'm eager to get home to see my
wife," he said. "To tell the truth,
I'm just plain homesick. It was fly
ing<when we met and our whole mar
ried life has been on background OF
flying.
! $50 Mrs. Read kept her anxiety
down to minimum. But she would
have done that anyhow, because she
was mighty keen Tor me to make this
"trip across the ocean" =.
1 asked Read what message his
wife had sent about his success.
stNone," he said. ..
aWhatw exclaimed, ''No mes
sage
! Read smiled. aNo, nothing. But
II understand she's saving that till l
get home. Do you wonder I'm home
sick?"
Passengers on the ship going
back home with Read and Lieutenant
] jcommanders Towers and Bellinger
probably will see little Of the airmen.
For they have been fitted so much in
England and France that they have
not had time to write their detailed
reports for the navy department. So
the trip will be mad writing-fest.
/ Read highly praised the work of
Ensign H. G. Rodd, radio operator
on the n. ca. He also declared the
radio compass he used was astonish-
ingly accurate. He predicted it
would have much to do with the fu-
ture of transoceanic flying.
| The flight commanders have re-
celved numerous cable invitations
from American cities wishing to fete
them. All say the navy department
must decide whether they can make
the tour necessary for accepting the
invitations.
