Germans sull Proud
The Germans who entered the
chamber with all the confidence OF
Sctors bore themselves without n
trace OF nervousness and acted as
n they were taking part in the de-.
liherations on equal terms with thei$l
adyersarCs
Tho ceremony which attracted TO
the hall a crowd OF correspondents
and officials who began arriving at
an early hour started at 2;20 O'Clock
when servants brought huge arm
fuls OF printed conditions OF peace
and distributed them, one copy to
each delegation, around the hollow
recidngle. The Germans only we've
excepted, their copy being delivered
.o them at 3.17 o'clock during the
&nslation OF Premier Clemenceau's
speech.
Premier Clemcnceau. president OF
me congress arose and declared the
session opened. He started immedi-
a'ely upon his opening speech, paus-
ing TO permit this TO be translated
mo English and German by French
interpreters. The translation into the
uerman was decidedly faulty and
mailing The premier then addressed
lhe Germans again to explain the
conditions OF the negotiations, telling
mem mat there would be no oral
discussion permitted and that they
must submit their observations in
Nlung wiihlp 10 days The pre-
mler then road the headings OF the
,utaV and made his suggestions that
we Germans within n few days
mlgh' he ready to commence the
treaty.
