peace pleuipotentiaries approach
ed the final ceremony Of the signing
II the treaty at Versailles Is not one
that is reassuring to the rest Of the
world, weary Of war and hoping for a
space Of repose for reconstruction and
restoration. II Is only too evident
that to the Teuton treaty il still
but "a scrap Of paper promise a
thing TO be broken the instant ii is
no longer to his interest To keep II, an
obligation something TO be ignored
whenever external pressure of compul-
sion shall be removed. The sinking Of
the informed warshipa at Scspa Flow,
the burning Of the captured French
battle flags 10 that the French should
not have tbs sAtisfaetion of their res
toration, these are but outward mani
festations Of spirit which the rest Of
the world will have to take into &C
count in all Of its future dealings with
Germany. And the protestations Of
the military caste in Prussia against
the terms Of the treaty that reflect
upon the "honor" Of the German army
and its professions Of loyalty and de-
votion TO the fugitive and outlawed /
Hohenzollern are symptoms which the
Allies cannot afford 10 ignore. There
ARE abundant reasons TO doubt the
bona fides Of the German republic"
and to accept the theory that the "rev-
olution" has been from the first the
cover under which on unreforned and :
nation hoped to escape
the ignominy Of defeat and shift to
mere puppets the responsibility both
for the acceptance and the subsequent
evasion Of peace conditions which Ger
many has no intention OF fulfilling.
The French In 1871, no less than Aus l
tria and Denmark previously, were
obliged TO submit under protest TO G
iietated peace no less rigorous than G
he present. There was dignity In the q
french protest. but In the squirming
'vasions and complaints Of the beaten G
feutons the Allies can find little that 7

whatever to inspire confidence In the g
incerity Of their acceptance Of the W
erms imposed upon them 81

Hog Prices Reach Record Level

Hogs Tuesday commanded the high
est price ever known, S21.75 hun
dredweight, in Chicago. The previous
topmost July record was last year,
$l9.49. Tuesdays strength in the
hog market was ascribed chiefly to
export demand for packing house pro-
ducts. Before the United States en-
tered the great war S1025 was the
acme for hogs in July.
