SEND DELEGATES
Coming Wednesday viii See
Audience With Peace
Conference.
COMPLETE REPORT TERM
SETTLEMENT DECIDED
internal Difficulties Of Her
Former Ally May Make 1t Dif-
ficuit to Discuss the Terms
of Military Disarmament Now
Inevitable.

Paris, May 15,-while the
terms of the peace which will be
accorded Austria have been set
ted by European chancellories
and the allied peace powers its
publication will be delayed. The
appearance Of the Austrian del
egation was the subject OF more
favorable comment than that OF
ether powers before the council
at St. Gerna n Despite the fact
that Kari Renner, the Austrian
chanCellCr made q favorable I'M
preston vita his delegates the
economic conditions OF Hungary
have made it impossible to come
to definite understandings.
Hungary is in the throea Of
dis'ntegration beyond that OF 9th
er powers and her inability to de
eide t. appoint delegates to St.
Germain is regarded as the natu-
ral reflex of her economic condi-
tion
The complete system of disar-
mament which has been decided
fer the Auatrians is to be applied
n form to the 'fItngarians 1t
is felt the most important fact
in the entire program is the strip
ping Of Austria and her central
allies of the machinery of war
fare
Several days will be required
for the discussion of the differ
ent articles but it is est mated
they will not take more than four
or five The delay yof the Hun
garians is causing some impati-
ence and perpleXity as the terms
cf the peace must be enOined on
them as well
Hungary in the grip of reyo1u-
ton is unable or unwilling to
make the appointments to TIE
conference. 1t is said the Aus
trian army will be entirely de-
mobilized and the great arma-
meut works at Skoda must 3e
dismantled
Meanwhile the Austrians are
making themselves at hcme in
the villas ass'gned to their oc-
cupancy which overlook tha val
ley Of the Seine. From these
positions they can see Paris and
the rich and varied scenery of
the vicinity of the French ca7:-
ital. There are few of the mil
itary restrictions that have per-
vailed at the Versailles and the
inevitable military guards anc
sentries and high beard fences.
