To Make Text Public
By Installments

PARIS, May 1.-THE German
peace treaty, it developed yesterday,
contains a clause which has not yet
beet made public, providing that rat
ifcation by German and three of the
principal associated powers will bring
the treaty into force between the rat
flying parties, enabling the immedi-
ate resumption of trade.
As the result of conferences among
the representatives Of the powers,
which were being continued yester-
day, the text of the German treaty
probably will be made public by in
stpllments. 1t is reported that the
financial and boundaries sections OF
the documents wwould be relassec
last night.
! 1t was pointed out in connection
with the stipulation as to the ratih
cation of the German treaty that an!
nation which withheld ratification af
ter three of the principal powers hac
ratified would be at a disadvantage il
commercial way. This would follow
from the fact that the ratifying pow
ers would be able to resume trade re
lations with Germany at once Will
the states that delayed would hav
no such privilege.
