Bolivia Would Buy Land
TO Insure Latin Peace
Proposes to Pay Chile and Peru
for Provinces Which Have
Caused Wars

WASHINGTON, April 5.-Bolivia has
placed before the peace conference in
Paris q proposal which many officials
and diplomats here believe will result
in final settlement OF the dispute
between Chile and Peru over the prov
inces Of Tacna and africa. The pro-
posal is that the provinces be given
to Bolivia upon payment to Peru and
Chile of 100000 pesos each.
Under the original treaty between
Chile and Peru ownership of the prov
inces was to have been decided by a
plebiscite and the country to which
the provinces adhered was to pay TO-
100000 pesos to the other. In present
ing its proposal to the peace confer
ence, Bolivia said that if the territory
were granted her there would be no
common boundary between Chile and
Peru and great step would have been
taken to establish permanent peace
on the American continent.
In diplomatic circles it was said that
Bolivia did not expect the matter to
be taken up by the Paris conference,
that the purpose in presenting it was
to make 1T known to all the powers
bolivian officials, however, are under
stood to hold that if league of ma
tlons is formed this would be proper
subject for adjudication by that body.

"Peace by Easter'
Hope Is Secuted BY
Newspapers OF Paris

PARIS, April 5.-The possibility of
peace by Easter is doubted by French
newspapers.
The "Journap points out that even If
the prcliminarics are wholly agreed
upon by Easter, there remain all the
negotiations with Germany, which, it
believes, will be at least as laborious as
the pourparlers between the Allied and
associated powers.
The "Matn" declares that there Is a
divergence of opinion in the Council of
Four on the essential point Of repara-
ton, while territorial questions are in
IN fair way to a satisfactory settle

pacitication ?" asks the echo de Paris. !"
1t answers the question as follows:
1T is only too clear that the league
of nations lies in pieces on the floor
OF the Hotel de Crillon american
headquarters), and the modest alliance
which might with advantage occupy its
place is but a vague sketch"
The newspaper fears that the Council
OF Four will produce at any cost some
sort of peace formula, good or bad,
which, it believes, will be the worst
danger. 1t urges the council, rather. to
say that an agreement is beyond their
powers and to refer the decision to
the Parliaments of the respective Allied
countries

"The question is whether Fiume is

ton was contemplated by any Of Mr..

WadsaUOrth Says People
OF State Want Monroe

Net0 York Tribune
Wdahin1tOn Rnronat

WASHINGTON, April 5.-Sentiment
IN New York State is increasing
against the league OF nations as pro-
posed in the covenant made public bv
President Wilson, according to Sena-
tor Wadsworth, who has Just returned
to the capital after having completed
a speaking tour throughout the state.
This opposition is directed at two feat
ures Of the proposed draft, Senator
Wadsworth said, first, the very extern
sive powers given to the executive
council and then the absence of ade-
quate safeguards for the Monroe Doc
trine.
People generally throughout New
YORK State seem opposed to the very
expensive powers which have been
given to the executive council Of the
said, land to the fact that no princi-
pies or code of law has been provided
TO guide 1T in the fu-urc. Also there
Is opposition to Section 10 Of the draft.
ut is generally believed that unless
the document is changed the Monroe
Doctrine is gone, and there is a very
vide insistence that the Monroe Doc
Tlnc be observed.
II have heard much criticism of the
delay in framing the treaty and the
secrecy surrounding the league of ma
tons plan. Every one seems in the
dark regarding it.
IN my judgment" Senator Wads-
worth continued, "the Senate will not
ratIfy peace treaty which does not
preserve the Monroe Doctrine and
which does not specifically exempt the
United States from the responsibility
Of protecting and guaranteeing the in
tegrity OF all the nations OF the earth.

" orld League Draft
Changes Cabled to
Senator Hitchcock,

WASHINGTON, April Exchanges
which have been made in the covenant
of the league of nations at Paris have
been cabled from Paris to Senator
Hitchcock, Of Nebraska, retiring chair
man of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee. The message was received
to-day by the Senator, who said he had
not asked the American peace delegates
for the information.
Senator Hitchcock is regarded as the
chief spokesman Of the Administration
in the controversy which has developed
in this country over the league of ma
tions plan, and it is understood the
purpose of sending the communication
was not only to keep the Senator in
formed OF the progress made in revis-
ing the league constitution, but also
that expected to be made.
Senator Hitchcock is to participate
in joint debate with Senator Lenroot
of Wisconsin, Republican, on the
league Of nations in New York, Mon
day night, and it is probable that he
will use some Of this information in
his address.
The communication to Senator Hitch
cock was said to be the first relative
to the peace conference to be received
by any Senator from the American del
egates at Paris

Plerary Peace Council
Session This Week to
Decide Labor Questions

PARIS, April (By The Associated
Press).-A plenary session CT the peace
conference has been decided upon for
the coming week for the consideration
of labor questions.
meeting of the League of Nations
Commission will be called on Tuesday
night, il the President is we'll enough
to attend, for the final passage of the
revised covenant. Reports that the
Italians intend withdrawing are dis
missed as groundless.
President Wilson has displayed keen
interest in the proceedings of the coun-
Gil since his enforced absence from its
sessions. and likewise in the attitude
of the Italians relative to the DISPOSE
ton of Fiume. The suggestion that his
illness had something of "diplomatic"
aspect found prompt refutaton at the
Paris White House, and likewise in
the council chamber. Nevertheless, his
absence from the council just now has
created an interesting situation.
1t is known that the President had
made clear his position on Preparations,
the disposition of the left bank of the
Rhine, the Saar Valley and Fiume-a
position which was not shared by all
of the conferrees-so that when his i'll
ness forced his withdrawal from the
proceedings there seemed little chance
for an early agreement.
1t has been suggested, however, that
tbs substitution Of Colonel House for
the President at the council sittings is
affording an opportunity of impressing
that body through a new source with
the American attitude, and that this
might serve to bring about change in
the position with regard to these ques.

DERLIN, April (By The Asso-

ger Of Bolshevik invasion of Ger

Hans Debrueck, of the history de-
partment Of the University Of Ber-
lin. In discussing the situation in
Germany he expressed the belief that
Germany and Poland would unite TO
face the Bolsheviki if the Boshevk
menace became serious. lie said:
Il do not fear a Bolshevik invasion,
as doubt the ability Of the Russians
to muster sufficient forces for a sue
cessful attempt. Should the Bolshevik
danger create an acute military situa-
ton, then union of the Germans and
Poles is bound to result because their
mutual interests would be jointly en-
dangered. Such a coalition, however,
would hardly find the unqualified sup
port of the Allied powers"
