SOME SLIP IN TO PARIS

VERSAILLES. May 3.-The erection Of
barricades in the German quarter
of Versailles, designed to prevent any
OF the Germans from straying off the
section assigned TO them, began this
morning. The barricades consist of
wooden palings bound with wire and
set upon both sides of the Rue des
RESERVOIRS, one side of which Is re-
served for the Germans. while the
opposite side has been left free for
residents. Strict control will be es-
tablished at all the exits to prevent
the Germans from going out of
bounds without authority.
, These strict measures were con-
sidered necessary because of the dis
inclination of some of the subordi-
mates In the German party to obey the
regulations prescribed for their move
ments.
Despite the official denial, it is GEN.
orally known that at least two corre-
spondents of German newspapers pre-
vionsly stationed in Paris visited that
city and attended a performance at a
theatre.
The tendency OF the German delega-
tons subordinatcs. particularly the
women stenographcrs, to break bounds
previously had led Police Commissioner
Cudailles to instruct the police posted at
the three hotels to turn back any Teutons
found wandering of the reservation. and
Atgip
round up any of them discovered in un-
authorized parts of Versailles. The Com
missioner has issued a warning that any
attempt on their part to go TO Paris to
see the sights will lead to their instant
banishment to Germany
The first disturbance OF the orderly
routine around German headquarters
occurred yesterday when a procession OF
youths cheering for Premier Clemenceau
and carrying placards reading give Ia

Reservoirs. yelling loudly as they passed
the Hotel des Reservoirs. The deega-
uon. however. had the appearance Of
seeking to make a pro-Clemsnceau
rather than an anti-German demonstra-
tion.
The delegation rapidly is assuming a
position Of equality in numbers at least,

|, PARIS. May 3.-Delay is again .he
order of the day here. The Allies
have found 1t impossible to get the
treaty reSdy by Monday, and Tuesday
perhaps Wednesday. will be the
earliest day for delivery of the docu-
nlent to the Germans. with uncer-
tainty even as to this. The Germans
are impatiently cooling their heels at
Versailles, ready to receive the treaty
as soon as it is finished.
The German credentials, which were
delivered to the allied committee
headed by Jules Cambon, were not
altogether satisfactory. These papers,
signed by President Ebert and Chan
cellor Scheidemann. were reexamined
to-day by the committee, and there
was developed a problem respecting
Bavaria which has her own diplo-
matte ENJOYS in various countries.
The question was raised whether
the credentials thus signed covered
Bavaria, whose Government is now in
dispute. The committee feels that ii
must have some additional guarantee
that Bavaria will be bound by the ac-
ton of the plenipotentiaries here.
There are intimations from German
sources that the delegation will con-
centrate its fight on the Saar Valley
proposition. The delegates are fortified
with numerous bulky petitions from the
people OF the district. protesting against
being cut of from their fatherland as
violation OF the fourteen Wilson prin-
cples. The inhabitants say they are
Wiling to bear all financial and moral
burdens incident to attachment 10 Ger
many, rather than separation.
The German plenipotentiaries, while
armed with full authority to negotiate,
feel they will be obliged to submit the
Saar problem to the Weimar assembly,
believing Weimar will pronounce against
IL. The Germans also insist that fifteen
days is insufficient for the consideration
of such a bulky treaty.
LONDON. May at Is not improbable
that the peace treaty will not be ready
for presentation TO the Germans before
the end OF next week, says Reuters
Paris correspondent, owing to tho fact
that several questions remain unsettled
and also because the actual working
document is taking more time than had
been anticipated.

PARIS. May 3.-The Chinese dele
CATION to the Peace Conference has
issued its statement commenting, ,,pon
the action Of the Big Three in award
ing the German rights in the Shan
tung Peninsula to Japan. In the
statement the delegates charge that
China has been made the victim of
secret treaties, that her rights in
Shantung have been transferred to
the japanese in a compromise for the
support of the League of Nations
and that the action as whole is in
violation of the tencts and the spirit
Of the covenant of the league.
SO alarmed are the Chinese dele
gates over the proceeding that they
assert that as result Of the award
the party in southern China, which
always have been quick to threaten
war against the party of the north,
will he strengthened materially and
that the movement may become strong
enough to overthrow the present Chi
nese Government. The representa-
tives of the Pekin Government assert
that the award gives Japan virtual
control over northern China and that
when the people at home learn the
full terms Of the agreement n move
ment against the Government is
likely to develop, with the southern
party taking immediate advantage to
encourage such action.
1t is felt by the Chinese dele
gates that China virtually will he

They refuse now to take comfort in
the promises offered by the League
OF Nations. although they do admit
that affairs may work out along the
lines President Wilson has suggested

The statement Of the delegation
boldly points out that Great Britain
ana France in 1917 completed an
agreement to support the claims Of
Japan in the Far East, so far as they
affected China, at the Peace Confer
ence and that previous to China he
coming an ally in the war she was not
Informed of the secret agreement.
The declaration Of war by China, the
delegates insist, terminated all trea-
ties and agreements with Germany
and that the German rights on the
Shantung Peninsula automatically re-
verted to the Chinese.
In answer to the japanese argu-
ment that the claims Of Japan, in
part at least, are based on the 1915
agreement, the Chinese delegates say

of war. nm exhibition of diplomacy

BIG THREE REMAIN FIRM

PARIS. May 3.-Strengthened by the
overwhelming vote of the Italian
Chamber of Deputies and Senate In
support of their position. Premier
Orlando and the other Italian dele
gates to the Peace Conference. so 1t
Cecame known to-day, have refused
TO return to Paris until assured by
the Big 'Three-and especially BY
President Wilson-thut reconsidera-
tion of their demand for Fiume will
be granted to them.
Premier Orlando intends taking ad-
vantage Of the vote of confidence he
has received to force Mr.. Wilson
into the appearance Of having eaten
the words Of his pronunciamcnto to
the Italian people The Italians also
insist that without them Great
Britain and France cannot sign the
peace treaty with Germany. as such
action would violate their prior
treaty with Italy, wherein each
Power pledges itself not to sign q
separate peace.

If Great Britain and France should
sign the peace treaty. however, the
Italians now assert that they will in
crease their army Of occupation at

matian coast. proclaim its ennexation
to Italy and make their own separate
peace treaties with Germany, Austria
and Turkey, taking the chances Of
President Wilson refusing them
further loans of money and supplies
of coal and food
In some quarters more optimistic
view of the Italian attitude is taken.
Here 1t Is said that the Italian dele
gates simply are awaiting an invita-
tion from their Allies to return to
the conference, but PremicrS LLOYD
George and Clemenceau are unable TO
extend the invitation without the an
proval of President Wilson. which It
seems impossible to obtain at this
time. The danger Of separate peace
between Italy and Germany therefore
looms large. 1t is clear that senti-
ment here favors modification OF
his attitude by President Wilson, in.
the interests of joint peace includ-
ing Italy. but the President thus far
has failed to intimate that he will
yield.

Criterion of Civilization.

It is impossible to contemplate wnn-
out interest the struggle made by
different nations, as they emerge from
barbarism, to supply themselves with
some visible symbol of thought
that agency by which the mind Of
the individual may be put in commu-
nication with the minds of whole
community. The want of such a SYM
boil is itself the greatest impeachment
to the progress OF civilization. For
what is it but to imprison the thought
within the bosom of it's author,
or of the small circle who come in
contact with him, instead Of sending
it abroad to give light to thousands
and to generations yet unborn! Not
only Is such symbol an essential ele-
ment Of civilization, but it may be
assumed as the very criterion of CIV
ilization, for the intellectual advance
ment Of people will keep pace pretty
nearly with it's faculties for Intellectual
communication.-W Prescott. in

Has Biblical Sanction.

The American Humane Education
society thinks it has made a point by
showing that "Spare the rod and
spoil the child" cannot be found in
the Bible. but was written by Samuel
Butler in 1868. Butler probably got
the alliterative "spare and spoil" from
Ralph Venning, who used it in 1649,
but the idea goes back to Proverbs
13 "a: "He that spareth his rod
hateth his son; but ne that loveth him
chasteneth him be.4mes." We are
with the Humane society (and the
chastening) in questioning the domi-
nance of unselfish love in the average
"chastening," but caLnot approve Of
its quibbling as to the quotation, so far
as substantial sanctiOa goes.
But most people wo-<ld be surprised
to learn that the exact words were
not scriptural, just a.. they would be
to learn that there i. no direct state
ment about the lion and the lamb ly-
ing down together. Many still think
"GOd tempers the wind to the shorn
lamb" is from the Bible, although
Sterne quoted it, without credit,
from Henry Estienne. Wesley's vague
quotation of an ancient Hebrews
Cleanliness is next to godliness''
sounds like Bible. Numerous pas
ages from hymns are also enormously
ascribed to scripture.-New York
Times.
