ALLIED DEMANDS
 MAY BE MODIFIED

There is probability that Ger many may secure, as a result of her strong eounter-proposals, some lessen ing i'll the severity of the peace terms of the allied and associated powers. Germany's pleas that it will be inn possible to fulfill the financial re- quirements of the allies, and her pro tests against certain territorial re- linquishments, are being discussed by the Council of Four. Paris reports say that in certain quarters of the peace conference the German view point is receiving strong support.
 The German counter proposals, es- pecially concerning separations and other economic features of the peace treaty, have been discussed by Pres ident Wilson and the staff of Ameri- can experts of the American peace delegation. Great Britan is said to favor several concessions to Ger many but France continues firm in her stand not to waver from the orig inal terms. The Americans are said to be not adverse to minor conces- sions, but are not in favor of going to the extent that the British pro- pose.
 The Snmreme Council has been re- quested by the Lithuanian delegates to the peace conference to have al- lied commission investigate alleged massacres and other illegal acts by the Poles in occupied Lithuania.
