VERSAILLES, May THE Ger
mans receive the terms of the peace
treaty this afternoon, the fourth an
niversary Of the sinking OF the Lusi-
tania.
Four years ago Germany challenged
Civilization by torpedoing the Cunard
liner without warning, killing 1,154
civilians. Today she learns the price
she must pay, in finances, territory
and loss OF national prestige. Her
penalty in blood already has been
exacted.
Selection of Versailles as the set
ting for this world drama is signifl-
cant in that nearly half century
ago the modern empire was born
here at the conclusion9 of the Franco
Prussian war. Germany's dream OF
world domination began and ended
in Versailles. The ceremony Of pre-
senting the treaty to the Germans
takes place in the Triano Palace ho-
tel. The dining salon in which the
delegates gather is entire glass on
three sides Green covered tables in
the form of hollow square stand in
the middle of the room, with smaller
red-topped tables ranged along the
walls for the secretaries. Premier
Clemenceau sits at the head Or main
table, facing the Germans at the
foot. President Wilson and the
other American elegates-Secretary
Lansing, Colonel House, Henry
White and General Bliss-sit at his
right. At his left are Premier Lloyd
George and the other British repre-
sentatives. Next to the Americans
are the French delegates, with Mar
shall Foch in their midst. The other
delegations include the plenipoten-
tiaries of Italy, Belgium, Greece, ia
pan, Portugal Serbia. Brazil, Ru-
mania, Poland, Czecho-Slovak1a, Chi
ma, Siam, Jugo-Slavia, Panama. Cuba,
Guatemala, Nicaragua, Haiti and
Honduras.
Forty-fve newspaper correspon-
dents including five Germans have
seats at the right side of the room.
Mrs. Wilson occupies a chair direct
ly behind Clemenceau.

AUTO OFFICE
RUN ON FAITH
Three Days Without Official Sane

Law to Go Into
Effect.

[United Press Leased Wire Service ]
DIES MONIES, Ia, May 7.-Iowa's
automobile department will have to
run on faith for three days this sum-
mer
While law passed by the thirty
eighth assembly provides that the
automobile department shall be
transferred back from the state
treasurer to the secretary of state on
July 1, the constitution provides that
laws Of general or public nature
which have no publication clause
shall go into effect on July 4.
This means three days in which
the automobile department will have
no one who can legally supervise it.
The same difficulty is found with
every law which is supposed to go
into effect at the beginning of bf-
ennial period, which is July 1

place it in the rands of Foreign
Minister Brockdorff- ff-Rantzau, Chief Of
the enemy delegation.
The phraseology as well AS the text
of the treaty, it is stated will satisfy

amble, merely stating that the war
has been terminated on the ensuing

Complete separation of the army

He stated also that because Of The
success of the educational system m

A complete line of communication
to the army of occupation is to be
maintained in the future from Ant
werp and Rotterdam to the Rhine
region, Baker explained.
This will mean complete separa-
ton of the army of occupation from
the A e. F. in France. AS rapidly
as possible. Baker said troops and
officers in the advance section of
France are being withdrawn west
ward into the intermediate section of
the service of supply and gradually
will reach the west coast, the port
region.
Removal of the army of occupt
tion, he said, after treaty negotia-
tions are completed, will be only a
question of ships.
The millionth man to ebmark from
France for home, Baker said, should
be aboard ship this month. AS for
the men In the army of occupation
only enlisted for duration of the
war, they are to be relieved by re-
placements, he said. The first one

nounced, probably would leave New
