BELIEVE U. S. WILL
RELAX OPPOSITION
TO LEAGUE COVENANT
French Hope Their Desired
Amendments VIII Be Ac-
ceptabe To Wilson.
By John DeGandt

Paris, Mar. LA distinct impression
prevailed here today that American op-
position to the league of nations cove
nant would show considerable relaxa-
tion after President Wilson actually
resumes his work in Paris.
His speech in New York just before
sailing was the subject Of favorable
comment among the French Some Of
fieials here apparently new hope that
the desired French amendments to the
covenant will be mere acceptable to
Wilson. They believe the president ap-
preciates that the terms of the peace
treaty can only be put into execution
through the medium of the league Of
nations with continued American col
labcration.
La Liberte, commenting on Prosi-
dent Wilson s speeches and the Amer
lean situation, said:
''The covenant is simply an alliance
of free nations which is sufficient if
it is provided that France may take
he necessary territorial and strategic
al guarantees to The eastward to pre-
vent new aggression.
"Even if Me is unable to win over
a majority Of the republican opposl-
tion, said the Journal De Debats,
" Wilson has convinced the masses
that it is necessity and that it is his
duty to establish league for the pur-
pose Of preventing all aggressive en-
terprises.

BOXING ENTHUSIASTS
Still THINK BIG BOUT
WILL CONE OUT West
Are AWaiitiIlg RicEaEdR S Deciis-
iOu On Nillard-Delnpsey
Fight.

New York, Mar. 7.-Boxing enthus-
lasts throughout the country were iu-
bilant today as result, Of the action
Of the Nevada legislature yesterday in
passing the measure permitting 25
round contests in that western state.
The assembly passed the bill over Gov
emor Boyle's veto last week and the
senate Endorsement clinched the mat
ter. Many believe that Tex Rickard,
promoter of the Willard-D Dempsey heavy
weight championship bout, will decide
to Stage tho fight in Nevada.
Favorable Naction on a similar law
is also expected in Idaho, according to
j. Robb Brady, the most recent bid
der for the championship contest. Bra
dy telcgraphing Riekard from Pocatel-
10, Idaho, has offered 100000 cash for
the privilege Of staging the bout. In
his dispatch to Richard, Brady stated
that the Legislature had lcgalized long
bouts and the governor was expected
% sign. Rickard. now overdue in New,
York, is expected to pass upon this and
other bids at an early date.
Although number of eastern and
middle western cities are bidding for
the match, boxing devotces incline
strongly to the belief that the big
fight should be decided in the west
over the longer route. The chief OBJ
lection to the eastern and mid-western
offers is the fact that only ten, twelve
and fifteen round fights may be stag
ed.
Rickard S contracts with Dempsey
obligates the promoter to notify Demp-
sey sixty days before the contest just
where the action will be laid The pro-
moter has the privilege Of changing
the scene of tho fight even after his
decision has been made, but he must
give ten days notice.

REFUSE Use OF SHIPS
UNLESS FOOD IS SENT
At ONCE TO GERMANS
Want Guarantee OF Food
Enough To Last Until Next
Harvest Season.
By Fred S. Ferguson.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent.)
Paris, March Flat refusal of Ger.
many to permit its ships to be used for
homeward transportation of American
troops unless food supply to lasr until
next harvest is first guaranteed BY the
ellies, confronted peace delegates of the
great powers when they met this after
noon.
This determination on the part of
Germany was made known by her rep.
resentatives at the economic conference
at Spa, Belgium. They informed the
allied representations the German mer-
chantmen would not be turned over
unless the necessary food supplies were
positively guaranteed. Thereupoa, the
allies economic mission returned from
the Spa for further instructions.
Consider Situation
The entire question of feeding Ger
many and easing the blockade of the
central powers was brought to c;imax
by the German attitude. American
members of the economic MISSION re-
turning to Paris with woro OF Ger
many's stand, conferred this morning
with the United States peace delcga-
tion at the Hotel Grillon.
The "big five" considered the stu
alton this afternoon.
II was estimated that $4O0,000,000
worth of food would be required to feed
the Germans until the next Aarvcss.
This sum is double the available gold
and securities in Germany. Even if the
amount available werc to bo taken, it
would cause financial collapse, it was
poi,,ted out
Can't Pay for Food
Economic experts declared the only
possible mears by which Germany might
pay for food would be for that nation
to start production Of exportablc
commodities. This brings squarely be-
fore the peace conference the quvsr1on
of whether Germany will be permitted
to enter world trade Immediately un-
der certain restrictions. Some hold this
to be necessary, if Germany Is to be
kept together and maintained in such
shape that she will be able to sign a
peace treaty, pay her debts and make
Preparation for war damage
Think Blockade Is Necessary
The French adhere to the viewpoint
that it is necessary to maintain the
blockade until France RECEIVERS indust-
rally and is ready to compete with Ger
many in world markets; that is, until
France has recovered from the effects
of German invasion, devastation and
factory looting. However, France, it
YVES stated, is willing to have the Unit
ed States lend Germany the money to
pay for the food. American delegates
regard this as out Of the question.
The situation is@now such that settle
meat will probably be matter Of
weeks. 1t has been dragging since Nsv-
ember The question, Of course, is re-
earded by the Americans as highly inn
portant, as the United Sttaes needs the
