PERSHING DELAYS TRIP

Copyright. 1919; all rights reserved
PARIS, May 2O.-lt was clear at Yer
sailles to-day that the Germans to-
morrow would ask for a six or eight
Gays extension. The time expires on
Thursday at o'clock. but the German
note will complain that Germany has
been unable to digest and prepare her
counter proposal. The Allies probably
will grant some extension while per-
fecting plans for the occupation of
Germany IL she refuses to sign the
treaty.
The fact that Gen. Pershing has post
poned his London trip and is attending
a conference here to-day is considered
significant II can be affirmed again
that the present German delegation
will not sign unless material changes
are made or unless the Bbert Govern
ment shifts suddenly at Versailles The
Germans admit that the Independents
are gaining some adherents. but it is
uncertain what political developments
occur in Germany.
1t seems altogether unlikely that the
signing OF the treaty will take place be-
fore June 10. perhaps not before June
Is. The President at long meeting OF
the commission to-day went over the en-
tire situation and discussing Turkey
among other things. This indicates, it
is said. that he will depart Immediately
after the signing OF the treaties but not
before.
