luton of Senator Fall, Republican,
New Mexico. to declare a state of
peace with Germany, the senate

the document was not its applica-
ton of the principle of self-deter-
mination to the people of enem1
countries, but to peoples dominat-
ed by the allies.
Ireland. Korea and Egypt, Sena-
tor Borah asserted, should have
been given independence.
Doesn't Blame Wilson.
'1 am not criticising the presi-
dent for what he failed to do" said
Mr.. Borah. He was prevented by
the imperialistic designs of the Eu-
ropean nations with which he was
associated !"
Borah spoke in reply to Senator
Thomas. Democrat, Colorado, who
declared partisan politics involved
in the Borah resolution, recently
adopted by the senate, requesting a
hearing at the peace conference for

FRENCH HURRY
ARMY RELEASE
DemObilizatiOn Of Forces Expected
to Be Carried Out With All
Possible Speed.

Paris, Tuesday, June 24-It is
reported that the French army de-
mobilization will be carried out
with all possible speed and that the
classes of 1907, 1908 and 1909 will
be mustered out the day after the
treaty is signed.
Premier ClemenceaU appeared in
the lobby of the chamber of depu-
ties today and members pressed
the question as to the governments
intentions regarding the elections
and the rehabilitation of the army.
The premier said that the elections
would be held at the earliest pos
sible date, possibly late in Septem-
ber or early in October. He said
that the governments principal
concern at present was demobiliza-
ton.
Although it is desired that de-
mobilization may be as complete
and rapid as possible the govern
ment is Obliged to take into ac-
count the circumstances at pres
ent and the state of mind of the
Germans" he said. ITO under
stand the spirit in which Germany
is about to sign the treaty. it is
only necessary to consider the
scuttling of the German fleet in
Scapa Flow and the more recent
destruction of German ships at
Kiel
Precautions Necessary.
Consequently precautions are
necessary and an army of a certain
Importance must be kept to enforce,
if necessary, strict observance of
the conditions of the treaty by the
Germans. particularly the one re-
garding the evacuation of Poland
with which the Germans seem re-
luctant to comply Besides, peace
with Bulgaria and Turkey will not
be concluded for several months"
AS the elections cannot be held
without receiving the vote of sol
diers the premier is considering a
scheme that will enable them to
vote by mail or which will permit
special leaves to be granted to the
men.

London, June 25-A number
of soldiers have been arrested

Berlin, Tuesday, June 24.-CBy
the Associated Press.)-Long ac-
counts written for the Berlin pa
pers by correspondents at Weimar
telling of events preceding the de-
cision of the German government
to sign the treaty of peace show
that there was a threat by generals
and officers of the volunteer troops
to quit If the treaty was signed
without reservations. Gustav
Noske, minister of defense, prof
fered his resignation but later sue
ceeded in appeasing the officers. He
then withdrew his resignation un-
der pressure from his party and
cabinet ministers.
Feeling among military leaders
is still running high, notwithstand-
ing the fact that they are admon-
ishing the troops to continue in the
service.
Erzberger in a Hole.
Correspondents at Weimar are
unanimous in the belief that the
prestige of Matthias Erzberger has
been damaged because of his mys-
terious but emphatic assurances
that the entente would be willing
to yield on the honor issue, which
failed to materialize. Herr Err
berger's position is a subject of
much speculation and it is be-
lieved that as soon as the peace
crisis is passed he faces a rather
trying period.

new U. S. WARSHIPS
will Make Up Crews Of Two
on Maiden Trips.

San Francisco, May 13.-For the
first time in the history of the United
States navy AN American destroyer
and submarine, when completed, will
make their maiden trip out of here
with petty officers and crew composed
entirely of FilipinOs.
Ninety-seven ,Filipinos are taking
the course at the Mare Island navy
yard, near here, which will fit them for
duty aboard the new ships. Others
will come until the total complement
of ia men for the destroyer and thir
ty-nine for the submarine have been
assembled.
The destroyer Jose Rial and the
submarine F-30 now building at the
Union Iron Works here are the gifts
of the Philippines to the United States
navy. When they are placed in COM
mission the Philippines will enjoy the
distinction not only that they have
paid for the ships, but that they also
have supplied the crews to man them.
Heretofore Filipinos have been al
lowed to enlist in the United States
navy, with few exceptions in the Ash
attic station, only as mess attendants.
When the Philippines announced its
gifts an order was issued by the navy
department to the commanding officer
of every ship afloat to nominate from
his crew such Filipinos as he consid-
cred desirable to form the compile
ments for the new vessels. The boys
were allawed to make application for
the assignment.

Secret Treaty Did Not Give r iun,e TO
Italy, But Defined Austrian Bor-
der.
Paris, May 13-BarGn Sonnine, the
italian foreign minister, held Il con"
ference with Colonel f. NJ. House.
They went over the Italian SITUATION
with a view to reaching a basis OF
adjustment before the Austrians ar
rive.
The conference took place at q
luncheon at which Colonel House was
the Italian diplomats guest.
The peace treaty with Austria is
nearing completion. An official sum-
mary is being prepared, as was done
in the case of the German treaty.
Although it is not SO stated in the
treaty the new Austrian frontier Is the
one designated by the secret treaty OF
London. 1t gives Italy all the strate-
gle heights and defensive passages
(The treaty of London did not give
Fiume to Italy, owing, it is said, to
the objections of Russia. which was
a party to the treaty. The Italians
have offered to give up much of the
Dalmatian territory granted them by
the London treaty in return for f.
ume).
Dispatches from Vienna say the
Austrian peace delegation left on
special train. The delegation is due to
arrfSe at Paris nAAednesday.-
The French officials have become
embarrassed by demand made by the
Austrian authorities that direct tele-
phone and telegraph communication
be afforded the Austrian peace dele
CATION during the negotiations, just
as it is now available to the Germans
The embarrassment arises from the
fact that the German peace delegates
are using the only wires available, and
it is not considered probable that they
will agree to give up any of their IA
cflities to their former Austrian al
lies.

Discomfort Growing in Rome.

Rome, May 13-The discomfort and
Irritation Of the people are again grow
ing because of news from Paris that
Italy is not likely to get what she
claims on the eastern shore of the
Adriatis.
The Messaguero says:
"President Wilson is obstinately OBJ
durate in his laws regarding Fiume,
showing that he has not changed his
mind"
Other reasons for dissatisfaction are
the o-Franco-American alliance,
from which Italy was excluded; the
report that the former Austrian mer-
chant marine will be devided among
the allies, although it is held it be-
longs entirely to italian firms; the
clause in the treaty with Germany
saying the three principal powers
were sufficient to ratify the treaty,
thus, it is alleged, again excluding
Italy, and the reported scheme to place
Ethiopia under the protection of
France.
All the newspapers of Rome publish
adverse comments on these subjects.
