I'd Victory of American
diplomacy Settles DispO-

SEVERAL CLAIMS
ARE ABANDONED
Self Determination Expect
ed to Participate Tur-
moil Today.
BY FRED FERGUSON

| Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
PARIS. Jan. 31-The next great
issue to be settled by the peace con-
gress is self determination. Prelim-
mary steps toward the consumation
Of this vital principle were expected
be retaken when the bureau re-
sumed it's sessions this afternoon.
The agreement reached yesterday
regarding the disposition of German
colonies does not apply to territories
of Europe. The reason is. these peo-
pies are too far advanced in every way
to permit outsiders to administer to
their affairs.
American victory.
American diplomacy won third
straight victory in the peace confer
ence over reactionary opposition. The
official announcement that "satisfac-
tory provisional agreements had
been reached regarding the disposi-
ton of German colonies anr occupied
territories in Turkey and Asia means
that the opposed powers have accept
ed Wilson's program for placing all
disputed areas under the administra-
ton of the League of Nations with the
Interested powers acting as trustees.
Arguments Abandoned
The Dalmatian question is still un>
settled although by accepting the
principle involved in yesterdays CO.
lonial agreement, Italy abandoned the
argument of security which was her
chief contention. Similar cases in
clude the Czecho- -Slovaks' claim to
German territory, within and border
ing on Bohemia, and Frances desire
for. 's,s more secure frontier along the
west bank of the Rhine.
Step Toward Self Determination.
While it was frankly admitted in
certain quarters that gthe self-deter-
issue perhaps will precipitate
more bitter disagreements than those
settled yesterday, a great step has
been taken toward fixing the prin-
ciplecs of self-determination when in
of the armistice terms was
practically conceded.

Paris, Friday, Dec. 5.-(By the As
sociated Press)-With bowed head
and with face of infinite sadness, a
modestly dressed old lady was seen
walking through Tuileries Gardens to-
day. AS she walked she would stop TO
pick autumn flowers, scared and
blasted by the cold, but no more fad

ing her and knowing the regulation
Of the park. expected some policeman
to admonish her, but she passed on
followed by single maid. unchecked
by the uniformed representative OF
the law.
1t was once-proud Empress Eu-
genie, who, bowed beneath the weight
Of SO winters, thus picked withered
flowers from garden that was once
hers. She was revisiting a scene re-
calling all the happiness, sorrow and
terror which came to her during the
years she was the chiefest jewel of the
old palatial mansion.
Empress Eugene left France on
July %. the fateful day when the
then proud and naughty Austria sent
an ultimatum to Serbia which was
destined to dismember realms and
change the whole face Of history. She
is in close seclusion in her apart
