One of the smoke screens the enemies OF
the League of Nations are putting out Is
that Great Britain and the selfgoverning
British dominions are to have six votes To
our one.
IL is difficult and requires almost super
human powers of self-restraint to treat
calmly and judicially an argument whose
anmus and proponents tend to arouse only
swift scorn In the minds Of honest men, yet
we know that epithets convince nobody, and,
therefore summoning all our powers of re-
strant, we shall try 10 make the u1atter
plain to any who are DESTROYS Of seeing.

Only when II Is unanimous in its opinion

IL is The Council that decides, and in the

222 in view OF the treatment which
their own nationals have received
while informed in Germany during
the war As there was no parallel
between the treatment which was
accorded the prisoners OF war by
the German government. on the one
side. and the allied and associated
powers. on the other. no claim for
reciprocity in this respect can arise
I'm regard 20 the third question.
the representatives OF the allied and
associated powers are ready 10 do
everything possible TO repatriate
German prisoners Of war and in
termed civilians properly fed and in
good condition after the conclusion
OF peace The regret however that
the present demands on territories
recently liberated from the German
yoke as well as from their own ma
tionals. viii make il impossible for
them 10 supply the prisoners Of wal
with clothing. etc. for which the

ment OF commission 20 deal with
the repatriation Of prisoners of war

set up such com missions Immediate

repatriation. The allied and asso-
ciated powers are not aware Of what
alienation it Is possible 20 make.
seeing that they have scrupulously
endeavored 20 observe both the laws
OF war and the dictates OF humanity
in the treatment which they have
given TO prisoners OF war, and that
as provided in the last section Of
Article 21S. IL is essential that pris-
oners Of war and informed civilian
should remain subject 20 discipline
and control pending the repatria-
tion. in the interest Of all concerned.
The German peace delegation
may rest assured that IL is the in
tention Of the allied and associated
governments TO treat their prisoners
OF war during the period between
the signing of peace and their re-
patriation with fun consideration of
the feelings and needs Of the pris-
oners.
Restitution "a Right.
THE restitution Of personal prop
erty TO prisoners Of war constitutes
legal right which the allied and
associated powers have every inten-
ton OF respecting. As regards in
formation about the missing the al
lied and associated power have al
ways endeavored 70 supply the Ger
man government with all informa-
ton in their possession on this sub
jet and they will certainly con-
tinue TO do so after peace is signed.
Concerning the care of graves,
they would point out that Articles
225 and 226 would appear 10 as
sure 10 the German people that the
graves Of their fellow citizens shall
be both respected and properly
maintained and that so far as is
practicable under clause 225. the
bodies of their soldiers and sailors

Sir The representative of the
allied and associated powers have
given consideration 90 the reputria-
tion Of the German prisoners Of war.
In reply they wish 10 state that they
cannot agree that prisoners of war
and civilian prisoners who have
been guilty Of crimes or penal Of
fenses should be released These
crimes and penal offenses have been
committed on allied soil and have
been dealt with by the legally con
stltated authorities without refer
ence 20 the fact that the wrong
doer was German. rather than an
allied citizen
Cites an Instance.
For instance, certain German
prisoner broke al night into the
house OF farmer on whose estate
he was set to work. and murdered
the farmer and his VIE in cold
blood with a bill hook For this
double murder the said prisoner
was sentenced 10 death on June II.

convention, however, the execution
Of the sentence is suspended until

For these reasons the allied and

PRESIDENT WILSON IN BED
SUFFERING FROM A COLD

President Wilson is confined to
his bed in Paris, according to
cable received today from Rear Ad
miral Cary T. Grayson. the per-
sonal physician of the President.
by Secretary Joseph =. Tumulty.
The cable stated that the President
had taken cold. AT the White
House it was said that the news
was not regarded as serious
enough to cause anxiety.
Should the Presidents illness
continue. the work of the peace
layed.
White House officials recalled to-
day that the President always
throws off the deepest colds quick
ly- They were confident that his
active work at the peace conference
would not be interrupted for more
than a day OF two.
PARIS. April 4.-Although Pres
dent Wilson was confined to his
room today with a cold, the council
of four met in the Paris White
House" as usual. 1t is understood
that necessary matters will be re-
ferred to the sickroom. or that
conferees will consult the Presi-
Col. L. M. House took the Presi-
dents place at the meeting of the
council OF four today.
The Presidents cold is slight
one. Rear Admiral Grayson said
today, and one days rest probably
will cure it. DIR. Grayson sent the
President to bed as a preventive
measure. The cold developed last
night.
The President, who retired at s
o'clock last night. rested comfort
ably through the night.
While Admiral Grayson hopes to
break up the cold within short
time, he made no prediction him
self as to it's probable duration.
The President has fair degree of
fever, although just what his tenn
perature is has not been revealed.
Except on questions of the great
est importance, no one is permitted
to enter the Presidents room. Mem
bers of the supreme council and
Representatives Of other govern
ments sent solicitious inquiries to
the White House" regarding the
Presidents condition.
