THE camouflaged car driven by
1 Speed" Sanborn in many road races
in the southwest stands facing the
person who enters the yards OF the
Star Auto Wrecking company. It is
not the record Of the old time racer
that attracts attention today, but the
camoUflage effect. II appears with
its disk wheels and serpentine effect
not to have been camouflaged for
overseas duty but to make citizens on
the streets OF Fl Paso feel that the
old town is still wet. When the green
snakes start working on the wheels
it produces an effect that is liable
to test the nerves Of any but tee
totaler.

Germany agrees to the basic idea
regarding army, navy and air regu!a-
tions and especially the abolition OF
compulsory military services OF this
is the beginning Of a general reduc-
ton Of armaments and abandonments
Of compulsory military service. "A
period Of transition must be allowed
during which Germany may retain
such forces as are required to pre-
serve internal order before reduc-
ing her army to the 100000 limit. On
condition that Germany enters the
League at once she agrees to dis
mantle the ortresses in the west, and
establish a neutral zone. But no spe-
c!al supervision Of the process of dis
armament, except that Of the League
Of Nations, can be admitted, and an
extension Of time must be granted
after discussion, on the basis OF
equality.
Oral negotiations to settle with re-.
spect to the surrender Of warships and
aviation measures, are proposed.
Much space is devoted to terrific.
rial questions. all the disputed terri
tories being taken up. articular at
tention is paid to the Sarre district
with its all-important coal mines.
The population Of the district. it is
asserted, has been attached to Ger
many for more than thousand
,,>,.. .~S <ha naopIa +odo,, aro as
German as they were a hundred
years ago. The separation of the
Sarre district the Germans say. is
to compensate France for coal de.
stroyed in the north. But it Is con-
tended. such q question can only be
settled on an economic basis, not be
tearing away a nationality undisput-
ed territory and degrading the League
Of Nations by involving it in the
transaction.
The German government declines
to make any reparation in the form
Of punishment and still more EN-
phatically declines to pass on to in
dividual parts Of the population, the
punishment intended for the whole
community. The annexation Of the
Sarre district to France would
mean the creation Of another Alsace-
Lorraine and Germany claims that
the whole question must be recon.
sidered.
Still insisting that for the greater
part Alsace.Lorraine is German. the
Germans admit that according to
present conceptions of right an in
justice was committed in 1871 when
the people were not consulted. Ger.
many therefore. has promised re-
paration, but it would be no repara'
ton TO cede Alsacs-Lorraine with its
immensely increased economic
wealth, to France at once. A vote
must be taken. allowing choice be-
tween union with France. union with

Chapter Two deals with the alleged
contra diction between the draft of the
treaty and the agreed basis of peace.
Various allied statesmen are having de-
clared the war was not against the Ger.
man people. but against an imperialis-
tic and irresponsible government. 1t is
urged in the reply that the allied pow
ers are dealing now with the German
people ruling its own future for itself
. fact which has been utterly disregard
ed in the draft treaty. Argument IS
presented against the separation Of
purely German territory from the M
pire and against tho isolation Of east
Prussia and making Danzig a free city.
As to the League OF Nations. Ger
many, the reply says. had repeatedly
been promised that the League Of Ma
tions would unite the belligerents. con.
querors as well as conquered. to secure
the world against future disasters. But
the statute Of the league has been es-
tablishsd without 4 German help and
Germany Is not event invited to Join
the league.
The right Of seH.determination of
nationals. has been proclaimed. says
the reply. by President Kilson. Mr..
Asqu}th. Mr.. Churchill. Lord Grey.
Signor Orlando and Premier Lloyd
George. But the treatment Of the
Inhabitants Of the sarre' region and
OF the districts Of Eupen. Malmedy
and Moresnet does not comply with
such a solemn recognition Of the
rights.
The same. it Is added. is true with
regard to Alsace-Lorraine. the ces-
sion Of which without consulting the
population would be new wrong.
The third chapter deals with pos
sible results Of the treaty as drafted.
The Germans claim it involves the
utter destruction OF German economic
life. Germanys creditors could not
obtain the immense sums required
from a pauperized country. The
elimination Of Germany from the
worlds trade might get rid OF a
troublesome competitor but the
world. already impoverished by the
war. would become infinitely poorer.
|. The world. now requires an inter-
national community Of labor. it is
argued, to which Germany agrees.
But the proposed treaty is merely a
celebration of the last triumph OF
imperialist and capitalist tendencies.
The delegates appeal to the innate
right Of men and nations. The pro-
posed treaty is characterized as IN
compatible with respect to this in
nate right: In the resolve. however

Of totally German towns and extern
sive German tracts Of land for mill
tary or economic reasons without re-
gard to the nationality Of history.
This particularly applies to Upper
Silesia. and strong protest is entered.
Germany cannot consent to the
severance of East Prussia from the
German empire. Germany is ready
to cede to Poland such west Prussian
territory as are indisputably Polish.
It is demanded that Danzig remain
with the German empire. but Ger
many is ready to make Memel
konigsberg and Danzig free ports in
order to secure to Poland the prom
ised access to the sea and to grant
special transit facilities upder speci-
fled conditions reciprocaily applied.
If any German territory is ulsi-
mately ceded to Poland. says the re-
ply. Germany must protect its for
naer nationals. This is declared to be
all the more necessary because the
Poles have not so far found them
selves to be trustworthy protectohs
Of the national and religious rights
Of minorities. A commission is de-
manded to assess damages caused
by recent Polish disturbances. Ger
many agrees to hold a plebiscite in
Schleswig.
Germany accepts dismantling Of
Helgoland.
With regard to the colonies. it is
maintained that the demand that
Germany should relineuish all her
rights and claims is an irreconcll-
able contradiction of the fifth point
OF President Wilson's address to
Congress on January 3. 1915 Ger
many's claims are based on the fact
that she acquired these colonies
lawfully and developed them labori-
ously. She must ho.d them for the
purpose of obtaining raw materials
and she requires them also as
market and also as settlement Of her
surplus population.
A counter-proposal is therefore
made that an impartial hearing If
the colonial questions take place be-
fore a special commission.
Section Twelve deals with Russia
and the Russian states. Germany
does not claim or propose to inter-
fere with any territory which be-
longs to the former Russian empire
The peace Of Brest-Litovsk has al
ready been renounced Germany,
however. cannot recognize and right
on the part Of Russia to demand
restitution and reparation.
The Germans make a (lea for ships
for participation in tho foreign
trade.
Germany accepts the obliga ton TO
pay for other damages sustained by
the civil population in the occupied
parts of Belgium and France, but
opposes reparation for other occupied
territories in Italy. Montenegro. Ser
bia. Rumania and Poland. She can
not accept the reparations commits

to be impossible and the surrender
Of the whole overseas mercantile
fleet is unacceptable. Germany ac-
knowledges the principle of placing
her resources directly in theservice
Of reparation. but only insofar as not
to infringe her economic sovereignty.
To this end a German commission is
proposed similar to the reparations
commission, the two to work out the
details in cooperation.
Germany demands that the economic
provisions of the treaty be drawn up
with full regard to the perfect equality
Of the rights OF Germany with those
Of other nations. She can only bear
her burdens and regain a position equal
to that OF other nations II the economic
freedom similar to that before the war

suggests an unrestricted grant for

tionS retain full freedom, as to tariffs.

troll of German river systems by an
internal onal commission are considered
Impossible. Germany agrees to revise
existing conventions to meet new con-
dltons and to open up German rivers

Chapters Seven and Eight deal re-
srecttvely with treaties and prisoners
Of war. Labor conditions also are dealt
with. With respect to the latter. the
German workers can only agree to 4
peace which enbodies the immediate
aims of the international labor move
ment. A protest is entered against even
the temporary exclusion OF Germany
from the organization Of labor.
With regard to guarantees, protest is
made against the occupation of Ger

the people. weakened as they are. could
be seduced to the madness Of an aysres-

shall he evacuated not later than six
months after the signing Of the peace
