SPEEDING up FORECAST

Washington, April 2.-U.N.So--
There is general feeling Of satis-
faction in official and diplomatic cir
cies here today as the result Of Presi-
dent Wilson's frank warning that the
peace conferences would do well TO
end needless delays in framing n
peace treaty. And coupled with his
equally frank assertion tha. he was
willing. to accept his share OF the re-
spensibility for the delays to date,
this solemn utterance. in the opinion
of official Washington. will go far
toward expeditlng the negotiations Of
the conference. From now on, 1t is
generally believed here there will be
an appreciable speeding up. with the
possibility that the. treaty may be
omitted to the central powers In
Il .e very near future. ,
In view Of the attitude of some
French and British papers. which has
been prone to place upon President
Wilson the full responsibility for the
little progress which has been made
holding that his insis.ence upon
the incorporation into the treaty of
matters rejecting his ideals has done
more to delay the proceedings than
any other one factor-there seemed
to be general belief here that 9TH
ers of the "big four" would make
similar utterances. The president,
by speaking first, they pointed out,
"has got from under" and his posi-
tion is now sqnarely before the world.
He has said he was for peace with
out unnecessary delays. and. in a
measure, has placed the responsible
ity for delays up to other members
OF the conference. And, in view OF
this situation; twas pointed out,
there seemed to 6e little for the 9TH
ers 10. do, tAt to makesit plain that
they, Zoo. desire quick results Thus
with all OF the representatives OF the
big powers squarely on record, there
could be but one result, in the opin-
ion of official washington, and that
would be a marked speeding up in
the proceedings of the conference.

by the big four following the break
Ing of the deadlock. President WI
son and the European premiers meet
ing with him are realty encouraged,
While the situation Is still critical,
all the conferees are impressed with
the absolute necessity of completing
the work without any further delay.
IL Is now understood that an
agreement has been reached BY
which France will get the mineral
products of the Saare basin, while
Germany will retain sovereignty OF
the territory. Furthermore, substan-
tial progress has been made in the
discussions of the Rhine Z: estion.

will be demolished. but Germany viii

they stand. ~ 'sFssS9sSsl !. I.
The size Of the indemnities claimed
from Germany has been cut down
also. T
1t is hoped. to complete all sfhe
work in relation to the first nesce
treaty by Saturday and settle the
Austrian problems next week. Then
the allies will be ready. to invite the
representatives. of the central powers
to France to sign up.
1t Is believed that there will be
upwards Of 200 enemy representa-
ttves here when the final negotiations
are begun. &. D
The allies and the associated pow
ers have authorized the resfor9tk
of the freedom Of trade with POlarN
Esthonia and German Austria.
In fact, freedom of trade has now,
been established with all nations ex-
cept Russia, Germany and Hungary.
Restrictions have been laid down
regarding German Austria prohibit
ing the shipping of military articles
into the country.
An international trade commission
has been sent to Vienna to see that
there Is no reshipment of goods into
Germany.
The foreign council has decided
that 1t will not be necessary for the
report of the commission on inter-
labor legislation to be rati-
fled by plenary session Of the peace
The labor measures will be ratified
by the various nations involved.
The Journal attacks the "big four"
upon it's attitude on the Saare val
ley problem, saying: |
"Is the conference preparing for
peace or war;"
II pointed out at the same time
that the Czecho- SIoyakia~ con1rr<s{
sion annexed 100000 Germans and
that the Czecho- Slovaks are fig ting
100000 Ukrainians and Ruthenians.
IT is a shock. says the newspaper, to
find that the big four" has scruples
about the Germans in connection
with the 'Saare basin.
