The head of the German delegation
did not arise like Premier Clemen-

it was remarked by some that this
apparent discourtesy to his adverse :

physical condition.
After the first sentence of the

French translation. The words dlo

in strong emphasis on particularly
vigorous phrases or words of his

Germans Keep Exchanges
With Home Government
Secret.

Paris. May s.-=(A. p, ,)--Intimations
reaching the peace conference from
Versailles lead to the belief that two
or three members of the German
peace delegation probably will return
to Germany to consult their govern
ment, the others remaining at YER
sailles.
Germany has not yet submitted any
communication with regard to the
peace treaty.
All the exchanges between the dele
CATION at Versailles and the home
government are being kept secret.
A copy of the treaty is well on ats
way to Berlin. A German courier
left at o'clock last night bearing 1t,
with Count Won Brockdorff- Rantzau's
first report on the negotiations.
Austrian Treaty Takes Form.
Paris, May ga. P)--The council
of four, with Premier Orlando. of
Italy, present, began today TO arrange
the program for the presentation or
peace terms to Austrian, Hungarian
and Bulgarian delegates.
The Austrian treaty has begun to
take form. Portions OF 1t already
have been drafted.
It appears that instead of Germany
being required to pay the entire in
demnity demanded by the allies, a
considerable sum will be demanded
of Austria, the estimate of this sum
at present being 5,000,000,G00 crowns.
This indemnity provision. and the
delimitation of the frontiers of the
new state will be the main features
of the treaty now in making. Pro-
vision is to be made for dividing Aus
tria- Hungary's prewar debt among
the new states formed from territory
formerly belonging to that empire.
The frontiers between German
Austria and Italy, and probably the
Adriatic settlement will also figure in
the Austrian treaty.

EYES OF WORLD
ON PEACE PACT
Statesmen and Diplomats
Turn Over Phrases Of
Official Summary.
WILSON'S AIM REALIZED
League of Nations an Insep-
arabic Part Of Document.
Congress to Line Up.

Washington, May S.-The eyes OF
the world today are focused on the
treaty Of Versailles.
Statesmen and diplomats every
where are turning over the phrases
OF the oficial published summary OF
its terms to form their opinions
In the United States the questions
being asked are: How does It af-
feet America? Will the senate ratlfy
it7 Will Germany accept It? Of
ficial Washington, with the president
and tho secretary Of state in Paris,
congress In adjournment and many
leaders on both sides absent, was
rather devoid Of authoritative ex-
preston on the FIRST two questions.
For the third the generally accepted
opinion seemed to be that the Ger
mans would accept the convention,
but that II might require economic
pressure to bring about ehe fulfill
ment of some of the terms.
The few congress leaders who were
in the capital were carefully study
ing the published summary prepar-
ing to issue their comments In the
form OF statements. Some OF these
were expected during the day.
One point seemingly generally ac-
cepted at first glance was that Presi'
dent. Wilson has successfully carriec
out his determination that the league
of nations covenant should be an In
separable part of the peace treat,
and that the whole document mus
stand intact as 1t comes up for rati'
fication or reflections. OF course. thu
senate might easily In the resolution
expressing it's action, make reserva'
tions on any portions which 1t doei
not approve.
Only Delay Advantages.
Another point which seemed evil
dent to those who studied the sum
mary, was that the rejection OF TN
treaty by any single nation woul:
only have the effect of delaying tn
restoration Of relations between tha
nation and Germany, while nations
which do accept the treaty will en-
joy the advantage Of opening up trad
and commerce with the remnant o
the great central European powers
Some observers were inclined to re
gard this feature as a formidabl'
agency in the hands OF the presiden
when ne urges the acceptance of tn
treaty by the United States.
The probabilities are that tn
forces in congress, for and agains
the treaty, will begin to line up an
show themselves within the next few
DAYS and take on a more definit
position as the full text of the record
breaking lengthy document become
| available. I#e

WORKED ALL NIGHT

tRoDert j. fTeW.D
Versailles. May Sims )--The Ger
man peace ENJOYS worked over the
treaty terms all night in their quar-
ters, analyzing and dissecting the doc
ument. Lights burned till daybreak in
the German quarters.
A special, messenger Is hurrying to
Weimar with a copy of the terms for
presentation to President Eberts cab
met and the peace committee OF the
national assembly.
The Germans were evidently greatly
troubled by the revelation of the peace
terms. That was made evident by the
expressions on their faces when they
left the Trianon palace.
AS soon as they got back to their
quarters stenographers were called In
and the dictation of reports was COM
menced. Just what the next develop
ment will be cannot be toretold, but the
American delegates are not concerned

ACTION NOT WORDS
COUNT, SAYS WILSON.

Paris, May S.-"Actions, not
words, count now" President
Wilson is understood to have
declared, when asked by Pre-
mier Lloyd George and Pre-
mier Clemenceau what effect
had been made upon him by
the speech of Count Won
Brockdorft~ Rantzau, head If
the German peace delegation.
What is the use sof even
thinking about 1t; whether the
Germans sign or not" the pres
ident continued.
This summarizes otficiaL
opinion in general.
Should the German dele
gates refuse to sign it would
naturally result in another rev.
: olution in Germany with an
other government which would
have to sign for protection.
The situation is expected to
clear up quickly, as soon as
popular opinion in Germany
has crystaliZed.
The Chattanooga news. [volume] (Chattanooga, Tenn.) 1891-1939, 1919-05-08

of retaliation and the policy of ex-
pansion and the disregard of the
rights Of peoples to determine their
own destiny have contributed to the
Illness of Europe which saw its cri-
sis in the world war. .t
Russian mobilization took from
the statesmen the possibility of heal
ing, and gave the decision into the
hands of the military powers. Pub
lie opinion in all the countries of our
adversaries is resounding with the
FcTimes which, Germany Is said tc
have committed in the war. Here
also we are ready to confess wrong
that may have been done.
I'VE have not come here to belittle
the responsibility of the men who
have waged the war politically and
economically, or to deny any crimes
which may have been committed
against the rights of peoples. We re-
peat the declaration which has been
made in the German reichstag at the
beginning of the war; that is to say,
wrong has been done to Belgium,
and we are willing to repair 1t.
But in the manner of making war
also Germany is not the only guilty
one. Every nation knows the, deeds
of people, which the best nationals
only remember with regret. / do not
want to answer by reproaches to re-
proaches, but / ask them to remem-
Der. when reparation' is demanded,
not to forget the armistice. 1t took
us six weeks until we got it at last.
and six more until we came to know
your conditions of peace.
Grimes in war may not be ex-
cusable, but they are committed in
the struggle for victory and in the
defense of national existence, and
passions are aroused which make the
conscience of peoples blunt.
"The hundreds of thousands OF
noncombatants who have perished
since Nov. II by reason of the block
ade were killed with cold delibera-
tion after our adversaries had con-
quered and victory had been assured
them. Think of that when you speak
of guilt and OF punishment"
