Paris, April Boy The Asso-

edly meeting of the council of
four was held at E o'clock this eve
Ting with L.. ,'ltn, VII, Oh N at
tendance. The call for the meeting
resulted from Premier Lloyd
Georges determination to return to
London tomorrow.
The British premier will remain
in his home country for a week and,
because of his lengthy absence from
Paris, he and his colleagues decided
to request a final meeting today for
the purpose of closing certain
phases of the discussion, which the
premier considered best for him to
attend to personally, instead of leav-
ing the task to Arthur ]. Balfour,
his substitute in the council.
Wilson to Issue Statement.
The session, which began at E
O'Clock, ran we'll into the dinner
hour and broke up after s o'clock.
The discussion covered the general
situation, among other questions
the date it would be possible to
conclude the draft Of the treaty and
summon the German delegates to
Versailles. ... ..
1t is understood that Mr.. Lloyd
George, attached great Importance
to the question of the probable date
Of the termination of the work of
the conference, desirous of being
able to give the house of commons
some idea when the iong-drawn out
labors of the conference will be fn-
ished, If any definite notion OF this
was reached at today's conference
1t did not transpire. ~ ..
No statement was given out, but
it was announced this evening that
President Wilson will issue state
ment tomorrow, presumably refer
ring to the accomplishments of the
council Of four and of the general
situation to date.
The Italian and Jugo-Slav ques-
tions will come before the council
tomorrow, Arthur J. Balfour sitting
in place of Mr.. LloydGeorge.
Wilson's Health Restored.
During the early hours of the day
the president remained at home, but
later went driving with Mrs. Will
son. The bright sunshine after rain
ii! the forenoon had filled the streets
with Parisfans to whom the sight of
the Presidents car has become
familiar.
Little trace of the presidents re-
cent illness remains, but the large
amount Of work of the past week
fatigued him so much that he de-
clared he would do absolutely no
work today.
The only callers were the former
American ambassador and Mrs.
Sharp, WHO came to say good bye,
as they are leaving for the United
States Monday.

FRANCE TO have
use OF MINES IN
SARRE VALLEY
Reparation Question Settled
on Satisfactory Basis,
CIemenCeau Assures
Radical Socialists.

Paris, April l3.-(Havas.)- Pre-
mier Clemenceau told a deputation
of the radical socialist group which
called upon him today that the cues
ton of reparation by Germany had
been settled among the allies a few
hours previously on a basis that
would satisfy the desires of the dep
utation as these had been presented
to him, and that the same could
be said> for the negotiations con-
cerning the Sarre valley.
The deputation was headed by
Deputy Rene Renoult, who set forth
to the premier that the group con-
sidered it of great importance that
the league of nations should be or
ganized i'll such. way as >to pre-
vent, in future, any attempt against
the security of the world and the
independence of its people.
Guarantees Demanded.
THE group, said its, spokesman,
demanded no less hopefully the
granting of immediate material
guarantees that France should be
protected from any fresh aggression.
To reach this end the group con-
sidered two things necessary-a
strongly organized frontier and the
disarmament of Germany, the pcr-
manency of which should be secured
by continuing control.
Concerning reparations, the mini
mum requirements formulated by
the group comprised placing the
coal mines of the Sarre basin at the
disposal of France, while it con-
tended that complete reparation
must be obtained for all damage to
persons and property and provision
made for the payment from enemy
funds of all war pensions.
Premier Clemenceau replied that
he agreed with M Renoult. They
we're animated by the same feeling,
the premier declared, and it gave
him great Joy today to be able to
announce that since the day previous
the question of Hparation had been
settled between the allies on the
basis which the group considered
necessary for France. The same
was true. added the premier, of the
negotiations concerning the Sarre
basin.
Delegates Satisfied.
At the end of the interview the
delegates of the group declared
they had every reason to be salts
fed with NJ. Clenenceaus declara-
tion. The impression was given that
the work of the peace conference
was at the point where a conclusion
was in sight and that i'll a few days
