during the period-prObably thirty
years-in which damages are to be col
lected The Americans would have
preferred that the treaty should name
the fixed amount of indemnity to be
collected, but did not insist on this, in
order to hasten agreement. The five
billion first payment is to be made by
Germany, in cash or securities, before
May 1, 1921. 1t is supposed the total
to be demanded will be about $45,00O,-
100000.
Owing to the illness of President
Wilson during the early part of the
week, the commission on the league of
nations did not meet until Thursday
evening. At that time the completed
draft of the covenant, comprising q
articles, was submitted. There is no
longer any doubt in Paris that the
league covenant will be- a part OF
the peace treaty, and in this country
the opposition seems to be losing some
of its vehemence.
1t was announced that the commits
sion had adopted a section specifically
safeguarding the Monroe doctrine, and
that Geneva, Switzerland, had been Sc
lected as the'seat OF the league of ma
tions.

regard to the league were explained by
himself in the Chamber Of Deputies
and his selection of Bourgeois has been
the subject of some criticism on ground
that 1t was purely governmental How
over. the same criticism might bo ap-
nlied 10 the appointment of Lord Robert
Cecil, and the common BELIEF is that
both Cecil and Bourgeois are heartily in
sympathy with the idea and that the
beet efforts OF both will be devoted 10
obtain its practical realization. bour-

the attention 1t deserves.
Back Wilson Plan
President Wilson's advocacy of the
league has been so cardinally the prin
ciple of his policy that no doubt is felt
that whoever may be appointed as
Americas representatives on the league
of nations commission will do the ut
most to further any practical method OF
carrying out the Presidents ideals.
In fact, the basis upon which the
league proposals will be worked out will
be found in the Presidents fourteen
points. Arbitration or mediation will
be one of the first principles of the
league, and the judicial possibilities OF
making arbitration or mediation obliga-
tory through permanent institutions will
probably be found to have been worked
out in detail by DR.. James Brown Scott,
OF the Law Department at washing
ton.
The question of limitation of arma-
ments will be one of the crucial diff
fcuties in the formation of the league.
for, although the lifting of this burden
from the world is one of the chief de
siderata of all, the views as &c where

erably The French position in regard

regenerated Germany, and the British
view of the future possibilities Of men

Paris, Jan. 1G.--After all that has
been promised concerning open discus
sion in the making Of peace, steps were
taken at yesterdays session of the Inter-
Allied conference which show that the
whole intent Is to keep the people OF the
world in tho dark as to what is going
on behind the closed doors of the DUAL
d'Orsay. The representatives OF the five
great Powers adopted a resolution that
nothing about their deliberations be
disclosed except what was contained
in the colorless daily communicates.
Some OF those connected with the
conference construe the resolution as
meaning that they are to be barred from
seeing members OF the press.
The whole spirit of tho action taken
is contrary in every respect TO the as
surances given to the American people
and already a feeling of discouragemcnt
and indignation is displayed among
newspaper representatives from Allied
countries. The British correspondents
made "A formal protest which was
backed Immediately by the American
