PARIS. June 13.-The peace treaty

written so as to embody the changes

German counter proposals, which now
is being framed for early delivery to
the German plenipotentiaries.

principle. virtually a new document
will be presented to the Germans.
May Be Given Out Day of Delivery.
1t is understood that the new treaty
will be made public on the day OF its
delivery or the day after.
The council of four. it develops, de-
cided that simply to attach the reply
to the original document was imprac-
ticable, as important clauses would be
left obscure and imperfect. Hence
the decision to rewrite the document.
1t was commented in peace confer
ence circles today that this action
renders obsolete the text published in
the United States.
Reports Sent by Committee.
The council of four today devoted
both of it's sessions to the revision Of
the text Of the treaty. When the

nine of eighteen reports before it.
Among those remaining to be passed

subjects. These subjects include the
Sarre valley, Alsace-Lorraine and the
league of nations.
The revision commi ssion, which is in
constant session. is headed by Andre

British Reopen Reparations. : !.
The British have made an eleventh.
hour attempt to reopen the question
of Preparations. They have submitted
proposals introducing into the func-
tions of the permanent reparations
commissions the principle OF control
of raw materials, etc, furnished Ger
many. enabling the commission to
control Germany's economic develop
ment during the period 1t operates.
The British effort has not met with
a sympathetic reception by the repa--
rations commission, to which 1t was
referred. 1t seems improbable that
the proposals will be accepted, but
they constitute one of the causes of
the delay Of the reply to the Ger
mans, which it was rumored today
probably would not be presented I'M
til Monday.
Anglo-French Renew Hun Trade.
The question of large amounts of
British and French goods finding
their way into Germany from the oc-
cupied regions has been raised in the
supreme economic. council OF the
peace conference. The proposal has
been made that some form Of control
be instituted to prevent one nation
trading without the knowledge or
consent of the others.
