Germany takes UP her position unre-
servedly on the ground Of the Wilson
program. She renounces her SOW

wishes a free plebiscite to take place
there. She gives up the greater part
Of the province of Posen, the district
incontesterly Polish in population, to-
'gether with the capital She is pre-
pared to grant to Poland, under inter
national guarantees, free and secure
access to the sea by ceding free ports
at Danzig, Konisberg and Memel, by
an agreement regulating the naviga-
Jlon OF the Vistula, and by special
railway conventions. Germany is pre-
pared to insure the supply of coal for
the economic needs of France, espe-
cially from the Saar region, until such
time as the French mines are once
more in working order. The prepon-
derantly Danish districts of Sleswig
VIII be given up to Denmark on the
basis of a plebiscite Germany de-
mands that the right of self deter
mination shall also be repeated where
the interests of the Germans in Aus

COO in annual payments without in
terest. These payments shall in prin-
clpal be equal to affixed percentage of
the German imperial and state reve-
nues. The annual payment shall ap-
proXimate to the former peace budget.
For the first 10 years the annual pay
ments shall not exceed 100000 of
gold marks year. The German tax
payer shall not be less heavier bur-
tdened than the taxpayer of the most
heavily burdened state among those
represented on the reparation COM
mission. Germany presumes in this
connection that she will not have to
make any territorial sacrifices be-
yond those mentioned above and that
she will recover her freedom on eco
nomic movement at home and abroad.

GERMANY'S ANSWER
TO THE PEACE TERMS.

WASHINGTON, June Germany,
although realizing that she must
make sacrifices TO obtain peace, is
convinced that the executions of the
peace treaty as drawn ARE more than
the German people can bear"
Count Won Brockdortf- RantZau,
head Of the German peace delega-
ton, thus sums up the attitude of
the German nation toward the pro-
posed treaty Of peace in note to
the allied and associated powers, out
timing various German counter-pro
posals. The German note, delivered
10 Premier Clemenceau, president of
the peace conference, last Thursday,
was made public tonight by the State
Department.
The German delegation nowhere in
its note asserts that it will refuse
10 sign the present treaty, but de-
clares on behalf Of the German ma
ton that even in her need, justice
for her is too sacred a thing TO al
low her TO stoop " achieve conditions
which she cannot undertake to car
~ out"
Exclusion Of Germany from the
league of nations, the note asserts,
means that in signing the peace trea-
fy Germany would be executing a
decree for its own prescription, nay
MS own death sentence"
The German people, the note says,
have been disappointed in their hope
for q peace of justice which had
been promised and stand "aghast"

servations Of the German delegation
of the draft treaty of peace. We
came to Versailles in the expectation
of receiving peace proposal based
on the agreed principles. We were
firmly resolved to de everything in
our power with view Of fulfilling
the grave obligations which we had
undertaken. We hoped for the peace
of justice which had been promised
us. We were aghast when we read
in documents the demands made upon
US by the victorious violence of our
enemies. The more deeply we pene-
trate into the spirit of this treaty,
the more convinced we become of the
impossibility of carrying it out. The
executions of this treaty are more
than the German people can bear.
Must Give Up German Lands.
with a view to the re-establish-
ment Of the Polish state we must re-
nounce indisputably German territory,
nearly the whole of the province of
West Prussia, which is preponderant-
ly German, of Pomerania, Dantzig,
which is German to the core; we
must let that ancient Hanse town be
transferred into free states under
Polish suzerainty. We must agree
that East Prussia shall be amputated
from the body Of the state, con-
demned to a lingering death and
robbed Of its northern portion, in
Guiding Memel, which is purely Ger
nan. We must renounce Upper ST.

She gives up universal compulsory
service and reduces her army to

"She even renounces the warships

to leave in her hands. She stipulates,
however, that she shall be admitted

ulates that a genuine league of ma

Outlining its counter proposals, the
German delegations agrees to the re-
duction of Germany's army and navy
on condition that Germany be admit
ted Immediately to the league of ma
tons; to renounce Germany's SOW
ereign rights in Alsace-Lorraine and
Posen, but as to all other territories
which Germany is called upon to give
up the principle of self-determina-
ton, effective at once, is asked; to
subject all German colonies to admin

make the indemnity payments as re

heavily than the taxpayer of the most
heavily burdened state among those

says the report, "as King Of Prussia

man will does not enter. The German
sovereign depends only Oh God end

The report quotes 4 letter from
the former Emperor to The Emperor

war, in which the German Emperor
wrote:
Ny soul is tori asunder. but every
thing must be Put to fire and blood.
The threats of men and women, chli-

CONFERENCE PUBLICITY

There does not seem to ne any VI
qent call for the American people TO
become wildly agitated over the re-
norris which come from Paris that
the sessions Of the peace conference
ere not to be open to all the CORES
pondents of the newspapers gathered
+bere to watch it's deliberations. When
# is remembered that there are over
100 such scribes for the United
States alone, and that this number As
probably multiplied several times n
the case of the European pa9e' ;, It
/, can be seen how impractical IS the
idea that the peace delegates should
conduct their proceedings i'll the
dazzling light of such publicity,
AS the Philadelphia Record OBJ
serves. "whcn President Wilson made
his plea for open diplomacy ne DID
not mean, of course, that everything
should be doae in full view OF the
crowd, That is not the practice OF
our own Senate in its discussions IN
executive session, and in theory the
ordinary meeting OF committees OIL
Congress are not open to the pubic
There are times when all dcliberatiVe
bodies feel the necessity OF secrecy
N their debates on questions reqnir-
ing delicate handling.
Gull publicity should be given to
all decisions reached by the PARIS
conference. and it is to he hoped that
the American and British delegates
will stand pat on the position they
have taken in opposition rc the prcpo-
s:tion to draw veil over al! the
proceedings of the meeting. BY the
exercise of little tactand good sense
reasonable Publicity can be secured
and harmony between the Allies be
maintained without resortlng to sUch
emasculation Of the news Is has been
proposed by France, Italy ana ia
pan.
"The situation only calls for lit
tie horse sense on the part Of all con
cerned. Obviously the correspon-
dents cannot attend the sessions Of
the conference en- masse. There IS
nc reason, however, why adequate.
reports should not be prepared that
would satisfy the legitimate public
curiosity to know what this historic
gathering is doing"

HOLD KAISER RESPONSIBLE

Some points in the report to which
Premier Clemenceau referred last
week when he said he had consulted
two eminent iurists on the penal re-
sponsibility CT the former German
Emperor were made public yestc:-
day. The report was drawn up by
Ferdinand Larnaude, dean OF the
Paris law faculty, and Dr.. !. G. De-
Lapradelle. professor of rights Of ma
tons in the same faculty.
The object Of the inquiry was 20
investigate from u purely Judicial
point of view whether crimes COM
mitted by the German Government
and army involved the penal rcspon
sibility of the former German En-
reror. what tribunal should judge
him and whether his extrad;tion
could be demanded.
The authors of the report cons,
r.ence by establishing that nc penalty
is possible against nation any
more than against a company; but
