Politics in Senate
Opposition to League

LONDON, March 6.-President Will
sons speech at New York occupies a
prominent place in the news editorial
columns of the papers here. Some edi-
tors see in American domestic politics
the key to the Senate episode. The
Telegraph" says:
"Mr. Wilson's opponents in the Sem
ate have not, as matter of fact bound
themselves to any course OF action TOO
firmly to adopt another if the Presi-
dent should make good with Ameri-
can public opinion IN the end. All
depends upon the sense in which that
opinion may make itself manifest
when the treaty of peace and the
league of nations have been given
final form. Therefore, for the present,
we must leave this strange and un-
certain situation"
European democracies are watching
to see whether the impulse which
brought America to their side for the
purpose of finishing the war will keep
her at their side for the purpose of
rearing the fabric of war-free
world" says the "Chronicle." "They
are not watching without anxiety, for
they know that American co0peration
is indispensable if the fabric is to
stand"

Proposed Peace Terms
Not Seuere Enough,
Says Captain Tartiieu

PARIS, March 6 (By The Associated
Press). What may be regarded as
the official French view of the mill
tary terms was expressed by Captain
Iardieu, when he said to the peace
delegates: ut is almost unanimous
that the terms should be even more
severe than those proposed"
Captain Tardieu also said that the

Captain Tardieu explained that various
onJectlons, made not only by the United
States but by other nations, would be
considered, first, by the drafting COM
mission and later by the council.
"This work will be resumed" he said
'imme ediately after the return of Pres
dent Wilson,
To the slight dissatisfaction displayed
by the smaller powers Ger their allot-
mcnt of five members to the recently
created economic and financial commits

WAS SHOWN tO-uay, however, when the
announcement was made that the
smaller powers had chosen as their rep
resentatives delegates from Brazil, Por-
tugal, Panama, Bolivia and Ecuador
A step toward the formation of a
treaty of peace was taken by the
Supreme Council when it adopted the
proposal of the American delegation
to have the various commissions pre-
sent to the council their reports and
conclusions in the form of articles to
be inserted in the peace preliminaries

will be taken to cut off the flow of
American foodstuffs to Italy.
1T was stated to-day in an authorita-
tive quarter that the Italian govern
ment had caused intolerable conditions
by the blockade she has imposed
against the Jugo- Slavic countries, and
which operates also against the
Czecho- Slovaks. The blockade has not
been wholly effective, because the
United States has been able to de-
liver much food where it was needed,
but many delays have been caused, re,
sulting often in holding up supplies
the need of which was desperate.
Reports from Paris Of the existence
Of chaotic conditions because of the
blockade have not been confirmed
here, but it is known that much un-
necessary suffering has been caused
directly attributable to the stand TAX
en- by Italy.
News from Paris that representa-
tives of Great Britain and France
were outspoken in their condemnation
of the attitude Of Italy had been
cabled to the United States, but the
sending it's warning to Italy was taken
before that news came.
No reply has yet been made by the
Italian government.
In 1918 this country shipped Italy
16,O00,000 bushels of wheat and 3,OO0,-
600 barrels of flour. This cereal ra-
tion was supplemented by 100000
bushels of corn.
Italy also has looked to the United
States for meat, taking 46,0O0,000
pounds OF canned beef, 5000 600
pounds of fresh beef, $4,000, 900 pounds
OF bacon and 100000 pounds Of lard
last year. Other purchases from this
country included 20,00O,00O pounds Of
salmon and 100000 pounds of sugar

Delegation to
aris Planned
By Irish Here

American leaders of the Irish move
ment for Home Rule may send com
mttee from the United States to plead
their cause before the peace confer
ence in Paris. The plan has the sup
port of many of the members of the
committee of the Irish race conven-
ton which met President Wilson at
the Metropolitan Opera House last
Tuesday night. Efforts are being
made, it was announced yesterday, to
call the committee together to-day for
the purpose of acting on the proposal.
The meeting may be held tonight at
the McAlpin Hotel
"The idea of sending a committee to
plead lreland's cause before the peace
conference has been under considera-
tion for some time" said Frank P.
Walsh. "The plan has not been con-
sidered officially by the committee, but
it undoubtedly will be as soon as it
meets
Mr.. Walsh during his conversation
with President Wilson at the Metro
politan Opera House suggested that
the Irish in America might desire to
send representative committee to
present their cause at the peace table.
Mr.. Walsh asked the President if, in
the event that the committee were
sent, he would use his influence to
gain for it hearinr hv tho 1ooco
conferrees.
II understand that you do not want
to answer to that right now," said
the President in reply to Mr.. Walsh's
request. He was told that an imme-
date answer was not requested.
The colleagues of Justice Daniel F.
Cohalan, who headed the delegation
and whom the President refused to
meet, expressed themselves as graft
fed with the turn events had taken.

"opyright, 1919. Now York Tribune Incl
PARlS, March 6.-The spectre of
famine in Germany is stalking about
in Paris. The French attitude is
changing. There is more desire for
haste in reaching terms, and the Amer
leans are steadily and consistently
urging speed. The Italians hitherto
nave been less favorable, but the ques-
tion will come up tomorrow in the
Cdhncil of Ten as part of the discus
sion of the Jugo- Slav problem and the
feeding of Bohemia.
To-day the Council of Ten concen-
trated its attention on the naval terms
and has made good progress. The ques
tlon of sinking the German fleet was
raised, and, while no decision has been
reached, the situation will probably
soon be cleared up.
The United States would not take anv
of the German ships. Britain doesn't
need any of them, and France and italy
may take some if they insist, although
America believes they are white ele-
plants. Belgium may ask for and re-
ccivc a few destroyers
The question of Heligoland was dis
cussed, without any conclusion being
reached, and the proposal to neutralize
the kiel Canal was finally referred to
the Commission on Ports and Water
ways as coming more naturally within
the scope Of tnat body.
1t is becoming increasingly clear
that the attitude of Italy is re-
sponsible in some measure for the
delay in reaching certain decisions
which must be made before the terms
of peace to be presented to Germany

shows little interest in speeding up the
final formulation of peace terms.
The Americans are pressing forward
the treaty of peace, having in this ef-
fort the support of the French and the
British, but the Italians, working for
special ends, are, nevertheless, able
to prevent the fullest Franco British
