the league and the small nations nine
This is the plan the small nations pre-
fer; but another plan provides for no
permanent representation for small ma
tions on the executive body of the
league, and consideration by that body
only when their special interests are
concerned. The great powers look with
would give to small nations so great a
power to block any moves made to safe
guard interests that obviously might be
SO much greater in extent than those of
lesser peoples.
The choice of procedure for the set
tlement of disputes when the league has
been established is also undetermined
Whether economic pressure shall be used
to force unwilling signatories to agree
with decisions of the league is still
under discussion. 1t is proposed there
shall be three ways to settle disputes,
with choice given to those seeking set
Element, by arbitration, mediation or
inquiry. 1t is also proposed, according
to late reports from Paris, that nations
signing the league constitution may
make reservations as to articles they
do not wish to accept in their entirety.
One correspondent holds that the failure
to provide for compulsory arbitration
is due to fear that the United States
Senate will not ratify a treaty that
might bind the United States to accept
the action of world league on matters
affecting the Philippines or Oriental ex-
clusion.
The action of the Soviet government
Of Russia in accepting the invitation to
a conference was not limited to this
aspect merely. The Soviet communica-
ton also signifies the willingness of Rus
STA to acknowledge financial obligations
to persons in Allied lands, these debts
having been threatened with disavowal,
and desire to enter into negotiations
to end nostilities.

THIS has been a week of hard la
Dor for the peace conference.

TNH1s has been a week of hard la
Dor for the peace conference.
Much preliminary matter has
been disposed Of, many COM
promises effected, many substantial
basic principles laid down. Now the
trend Of the conference in it's various
branches is toward capitalization Of its
impulses. 1t is not the final stage, but
it is an approach toward conclusion, ac-
cording to observers on the scene.
Only one definite word has come from
the conference this last week. A sud-
den communication from the Bolshevik
government Of Russia, asserting to the
plan for a conference on Princes ISL
ands, has caused the conference to
decide to send a commission Of ten to
the conference, according to an Asso-
ciated Press dispatch on Thursday. APP
parently this action is without refer
ence to the decisions of other Russian
factions, only one Of which has yet re-
piled, and that affirmatively.

the Carranza government and foreign in

At any rate Mexico has broken into

The German Colonies

The labors of the conference have
divided into two parts chiefly. One,
which began the week previous, was the
consideration of plan whereby the con-
quered German colonies might be gov
erned without recourse to the older
policy Of annexation. Out of this has
come the mandatory plan which, despite
the time spent in it's consideration, is
still inchoate and without decisive for
mutation.
The disposition Of conquered lands in
reality awaits the cnuncation Of the
league Of nations constitution, and it
is this work which the chief delegates

the last seven days.
