submission of the draft of the bill
requesting an appropriation for the
erection of a central power plant
at Ignite.
After the bill had been duly
read and approved, a resolution
was adopted that copies of the bill

ALLIES READY
TO FORCE HUN
TO SIGN PACT

LONDON, May II. - Develop
ments-in Germany are being watch
ed closely, according to Earl Cur
zon, government leader. Nothing
is going on in Germany, he says
that is not known to the Allies
and every precaution has been tax
en- TO meet any emergency that
may arise should the Germans de-
eide to refuse to sign the peace
treaty.
The Allies are giving them plep-
ty OF time 10 consider the terms,
Curzon says, and while he does not
deny that certain requests for
notifications may be Granted, he
expresses the conviction that il is
the intention of the Allies not 10
permit any substantial changes
Neither protests nor armed re
sistance will alter the decision OF
the Allies on the main points of
the treaty, and when the time come Is
for signing, Curzon predicts that
the Germans will do as they are
told.
