Berlin to Celebrate
May Day by Stopping
ALL Kinds OF Labor

BERLIN, Monday, April % (By The
Associated Press Mot content with
just having survived three consecutive
Easter holidays, with three more holi-
days to come at the end Of May, the
workers Of Berlin and Germany gem
orally will rest from their excessive
labor on May /. the latest and new
est Socialist holiday in this country.
All transportation will be suspended
on the Berlin street cars, the suburban
trains and subways. Long distance
train service will be limited to food
and milk trains. Not even coal ship
ments will move.
Almost the only workers on May
Day will be the postmcn and post
women, who will carry out the Sunday
schedule of deliveries. and the tele-
phone operators, who will continue to
inflict their exasperating service on
the public, which, though Of the long
suffering kind, has been protesting in
increasing measure the past month.
The theatres will be closed, and
even the restaurants will shut down
unless the swelling protest Of the
thousands who depend upon public
eating places is needed. 1t is proposed
that such restaurant employees as can
cook, serve food and clean dishes shall
work at least part Of the day in res
taurants where food, rather than
drink forms the major portion Of the
business.

German Cabinet
Fearful War Bill
Will Upset Nation

BERLIN, April 80 (By The Associated
Press) ).-Strong currents Of opinion in
side the Cabinet permit Of the asser-
ton that the ministry of Chancellor
Scheidemann is fervently hoping to
obtain peace settlement at Versailles
sufficiently tolerable to win the Ma
tional Assembly's ratification and thus
obviate the danger of further internal
ruptures, which it is believed would be
bound to result from plebiscite.
The governments pronunciamentos
In the past months have persistently
underscored the nations need for food
and peace. The food situation is slow
ly being ameliorated, and the govern
ment's chief remaining sorrow is its
preliminary settlement with former
foes.
Scheidemann's party colleagues and
the democratic elements in the present
adp,inistration seem quito conscious
that the peace to be offered them will
hardly be tempered with mercy, yet
they are pinning their faith on Presi-
dent Wilson's influence with the En-
tente leaders to the extent of hoping
for terms which. will not compel the
for Berlin Immediately after tho de-
livery Of the peace treaty.
There are no illusions obtaining in
any quarters-political, financial or in
dustrial-that the bill will not be a
long and heavy one. Speculation in
Berlin to-day concerned itself with the
question whether the Entente will per-
nit differences on various items to be
checked off and discussed.
The announcement Of the abolition Of
the blacklist against Germany is re-
ceived an an added indication that the
Entente opes not purpose to be brusque
to the German delegates at Versailles.
This feature of the enemy's blockade
has been an especial source of German
impatience since the armistice.
The Berlin editorial comment on the
departure of the peace delegates is
non-commital. The man in the street
also appears to be assuming an atti-
tude Of watchful waiting.

Balance of PoaUer to
Exist Despite League
Britain to Continue Anglo-yap-
anese alliance; France Also
Reserves Neap Treaties Right

WASHINGTON, April 30-Thc state
ment issued by the British delegation
in Paris that Article XXI Of the league
of nations covenant "makes it clear
that the covenant is not intended to
abrogate or weaken any other agree
ments," in addition to the Monroe Doc
trine, which are not inconsistent with
the covenants terms, and that "such
agreements would include special
treaties for military conven-
tions that are genuinely defensive"
was interpreted here to-day to mean
that England intends to perpetuate the
Anglo-Japanese alliance.
The terms of that alliance, while
protecting Japan against an attack by
any third power and securing Japan's
position in Asia and in the Pacific,
gives England protection for her Far
Eastern possessions, including India.
The British commentary might serve
also, it was said, to give the world
notice that Great Britain would con-
clude, whenever it should be deemed
advisable, special treaties of alliance
with nations other than Japan. This
being also the position Of France with
respect to alliances, the continuation
Of the policy Of alliances would inevi-
tably, it was declared, preserve and
perpetuate the principle of the bal
ance of power.

Preliminary Plans Discussed at
Luncheon Cipen by Colonel
House to Allied Statesmen


PARIS, April 80 (By The Associated
Press).-Plans for launching the
league OF nations were outlined at a
luncheon which Colonel E. M. House
gave to-day to Sir James Eric Drum
mond, tho Secretary General Of the
league; Lord Robert Cecil and others.
The plans are divided into three
main stages: First, preparatory de-
tails, which viii be worked out at
headquarters to be established at Lon
don during the coming summer; sec
ond, the inaugural meeting of the
league at Washington next October
under the presidency of President Will
son; third, the permanent esta blish-
ment of the league at Geneva next fall
or winter.
The preparatory details will begin
soon after the signing OF the treaty
and will be in the hands Of the COM
mittee Of nine designated by Presi-
dent Wilson's resolution before the
last plenary session OF the conference
Colonel House, Lord Cecil and the
Greek Premier, Flip Therios Venizeloss
will be among the members
Leon Bourgeois probably will not be
tho French member, as he does not
speak English. Most of the proceed
ings will be in English, and it Is ex-
pected that only members of the com
mittee will be chosen who speak the
language.
Colonel House, with considerable
staff, will remain in Europe after the
conference closes, and headquarters
will be removed to London. which Is
more convenient for preliminary work,
President Wilson will fix the date OF
the first meeting and ask the nations
to, name their three delegates to at
tend the inaugural gathering at Wash
incton.

Italy's Act May Hurt
Covenant irz Senate
Capital Doubts Page Took Steps
to Have anijestation Sup
pressed in Italian Cities

WASHINGTON, April 3o.-The ac-
curacy Of press reports stating that
Ambassador Page at Rome chad taken
steps to have the Italian authorities
suppress manifestations directed
toned at the State Department to-day,
it being declared that the Rome gov
ernment had been most punctilious in
this respect.
Observers here of the Italian situa-
tion hold that there are only three
possible solutions of the Fiume ques-
ton: Remuneration by Italy, compro-
mise by which Italy would obtain
Fiume, but lose some of the territory
in Dalmatia and some of the islands
assigned to her by the treaty of Lon
don, or proclamation by Italy Of the
union of Fiume with the nation.
There is no great expectation that
either the first or the second solution
chance of a compromise than of the
giving up of Fume by Italy.
The effect of the non signature of
the treaty with Germany by Italy
simultaneously with the Allied and
associated governments, it was be-
lieved, would not necessarily exclude
Italy from the league of nations; but
on this point the determination of
President Wilson was expected to be
a deciding factor. The n-signature
Of Italy contemporaneously with the
making Of peace might, however, have
damaging effect upon the American
Scnate's attitude toward the league OF
nations covenant. The declaration by
Senator Lodge, who will be chairman
of tho Foreign Relations Committee in
the next Senate, in favor of Italy's
claim to Fiume has a tendency toward
involving the issue with the question
Of the league Of nations when it
comes before the Senate.

LONDON, April 30-With varying
degrees of enthusiasm the Britiah
press accepts the league of nations as

of the covenant and highly critical Of

It Is the extremely liberal, Tather
than the ultra conservative, press
which expresses most criticism. They
believe the covenant should be more
connprehensive. with "more bite" as
former President Taft expressed 1t.
However, a fair summary Of opinion
shows that Nhe covenant is favored by
the British. THE Star" says: "It has
given civilization breathing space
during which our children may justify
its existence There Is no doubt that
other nations will be anxious to join
the thirty two and ultimately Ger
many, Austria and Russia must be ad-
mitted"
OF the Northcliffe press 'srhe
Times" ".The Daily Mail" and 4.The
Evening News" are loud in their
praise, emphasizing particularly the
part President VI son has played. "The
Daily Express" welcomes "the league
OF nations as all those who hate the
morstrosity of war mua' do We wish
it triumphant success 1t would be
foolish. however, to isnsrs the slender
basis for our best hopss- This is an
attempt to prove the perfectibility of
human nature and to exchange prac-
tical for ideal conduct of all affairs.
sSomething Of the same sort has
been witnessed at the peace confer
enco itself, and we have seen the ex-
treme difficulty under which the ideal
ist~labors when he approaches severely
practical issues. Even in the very
covenant we take note OF the fact that

league could haze aited another five
or ten years. Me- ihile, reliance is
placed on the armed forces OF the
