Already they have LED to q protest by

Of his friends. ID
It Is significant also that on the day
that a summary Of the Austrian treaty

President Wilson collaborated In an inter.

must be some surrender Of sovereignty
as the price OF the leagues great beneft
to the world, although Lord Robert
formerly had insisted that the sover-

1t is from these developments that
many diplomats here see a tendency BY
