Germans Plan to Delay
Final Peace Negotiations
CONTINUED from page u

A statement issued last night by
the Hayas news bureau, a semi-offi-
cial agency, say surprise has been
manifested over the fact that Ger
many did not select more important
men for her peace delegation than
DR.. Hamil Won Haimhausen, Herr
Won Keller, Ernest Schmidt, Herr
Reimker and Herr Luders. and also
that, according to the German note,
they will have power only to receive
the text of the terms and not to sign
the treaty.
1t was declared last night, the
statement adds, that Sin these cir
cumstances the sending of these dele
gates to Versailles would be useless"
This mornings newspapers see in
Germany's sending "couriers" instead
of delegates of proper standing to
Versailles nothing but evidence of bad
faith and a transparent maneuver to
gain time.
The announcement by Count Won
Brockdorff Rantzau, the German
foreign minister, that his government
would send delegates without full
powers to receive the peace terms and
transmit them to the German govern
ment has contributed greatly, the
newspapers say, toward an alliance
between France, Britain and Ameri-
ca. The French press insists that
negotiations looking toward such an
alliance still are in progress.
