WILL ALLOW GERMANS

But No Prolonged Discus
sion of the Terms of the

ports from Berlin Say the
Germans Will Not Sign.

Paris, April 80 tBy the Associated
Press lit is planned in peace confer
enee circles to 90 ahead with the treaty
of peace without regard to any action
by Italy, as it is considered probable
that the Italian delegation will not re.
turn, certainly not within the present
week The delivery of the treaty and
the first exchanges with the Germans
therefore, will occur without the parti-
eipation of Italy, and il is said in Ameri-
can quarters that this procedure will 20
forward steadily up till the signing Of
the treaty The first reading with the
Germans will probably occur Friday aft.
ernoon or Saturday, when the pact will
be presented.
A day or two viii be given for ques
tions concerning interpretations of differ
ent phases of the convention, without
however, involving a prolonged discus
sion.
Reports from Berlin are somewhat
contradictory concerning Germany's pur.
poses, as some reports indicate that an
early signing of the treaty is probable
while others say that it is doubtful
whether the pact win be signed at all
These reports, coming from different
sources, indicate lack of concerted at,
titude as to the treaty and show there
is disposition to leave the decision large
