Berlin, April 12.-The Germans
thought two or three months ago the
allies would occupy the country and
forcibly collect indemnities if payment
was refused. But today there is an
idea prevailing in Germany that the
allies are sick of war and will not fight
again under any provocation.
AT the same time, German militar
ism has recovered sufficiently to slim
ulate the peoples confidence. Per-
haps it is not fair to insinuate the
German government is crookedly try
ing to put something over" on the
allies. Maybe it is merely the nat
ural turn Of events. However, observ-
ers are becoming convinced that the
way the German public has come to
believe Germany has improved her po-
sition regarding peace is the result of
one of the cleverest bits of work in
the line of diplomatic propaganda that
has ever been accomplished.

THE covenant does not affect

curing the maintenance of peace.
THE members of the league will

Rapidly Growing Element Mani.
tests Intense Feeling Over
Paris Delay; Want Some
Kind of League but Treaty
First.
BY CHARLES c. HART.

Capital News Washington Bureau.)
Washington, April 12.-To divide the
thinking people of the United States
into two classes, those who are for a
league of nations and those who are
against, ignores another rapidly grow
ing element which is viewing the con-
ference in Paris from another and
more serious angle.
This third class, which threatens
soon to outnumber the partisans either
for or against a league OF nations, per-
haps is manifesting more intense feel
ing over the situation in Paris than
those on opposing sides of the league
question. These particular individuals
are not necessarily opposed to a league.
In fact, many are known to favor the
plan. but they are convinced in their
own minds that a peace treaty should
have been concluded in 60 days after
the armistice was signed and that the
league of nations project should have
been taken up separately.
LEAGUE UNPOPULAR.
1t is the view of which one hears
in Washington now more than any
other. The league of nations pro-
posaI is unquestionably unpopular
in Washington but that might sig
nifty nothing as to the balance of
the country because the great mass
cf the people living in Washington
are apt to be swayed by their
deepseated prejudice against the
present federal administration.
But there is no connection between
these prejudces and the sentiment
that peace treaty should have been
made hastily, because the latter view
appears to be projected into the dis
largely by men who have ira
veled in Europe, have lived there or
who We're there in some official capa-
city during the recent war.
Europe, politically and economically,
will be chaotic until the war is offici-
ally ended and each nation, large and

STATEMENT GIVEN OUT

STATEMENT GIVEN OUT
The following authoritative state
ment was made here today:
AT meeting of the league of ma
tions commission on Friday, April II,
the Japanese delegation proposed an
amendment to the preamble of the
covenant as follows: To insert after
the words by the prescription of open,
just and honorable relations between
nations, an additional clause to read
by the endorsement of the principle of
equality of nations and just treatment
of their nationals.
"The amendment was admirably
presented by Baron Maxine. In the
course Of his speech he emphasized
the great desire of the Japanese gov
ernment and of the Japanese people
that such a principle be recognized
in the covenant.
DISCUSSION FOLLOWS
His argument was supported with
great force by Viscount Chinda. A
discussion followed in which prac-
tically all of the members of the COM
mission participated The discussion
was marked by breadth of thought,
free and sympathetic change of opin-
ion, and a complete appreciation by
the members of the commission of the
difficulties which lay in the way of
either accepting or rejecting the
amendment
THE commission was impressed by
the justice of the Japanese claim and
by the spirit in which it was presented
PRESTIGE UNAFFECTED
Mention was frequently made in
the course of the discussion of the
fact that the covenant provided for
the representation of Japan on the
executive council as one Of the five
great powers, and that a rejection of
the proposed amendment could not.
therefore, be construed as diminishing
the prestige of Japan.
Various members Of the commits
sion, however, felt that they could nc.
vote for its specific inclusion in the
covenant. Therefore, the commission
was reluctantly unable to give to the
amendment that unanimous appr oval
which is necessary for its adoption"
