T. Ohta, Consul General of Japan
here, commenting on the situation,
gave The Associated Press this state
ment:
"Corean mobs, taxing advantage Of
the lenient attitude of the government,
have increased their activities until
they amount to lawless outrages and
have increased the area Of tkeir opera
tions over the greater part of the pc
ninsula. The accounts Of the last
three days show that moro than two
hundred localities are now affected and
large numbers of innocent persons re-
siding therein arc suffering greatly.
"lmpelled by this situation, the Jap

send to Corea a military contingent
consisting of six companies and 400
gendarmes. hoping thereby to restore
order and bring back prosperity to the
people as soon as possible"

Sheer Necessity

There are those who believe here now
that we are close to an agreement upon
the terms Of peace. There is real in
dication that progress has been made
in the last few days toward provi-
sonal settlement of the terms of
peace, SO far as effects Preparations,
Western frontiers and the Saar coal
region Of Germany; but no one of
these agreements is yet final and many
questions like Poland and Fiume re-
main in the way Of a prompt adjust
ment of claims against Germany The
situation has, at least, specifically i'm
proved.
The tension between Lloyd George
and President Wilson has, at least, mo-
mentarily, lessened; but five months
after the signing of the armistice

the American press will be standing
ready to compromise or to hold out
and force a so-called just peace.
His tacit threat, however, has not
brought the capitulations he desired
from the French, British and Italians,
but rather stiffenng and combina-
ton of the first two.
Although President Wilson's press
agents may attempt to make it appear
in America that his action brought the
Allies to terms. the fact is that the
capitulations, if any, really have been
made by Americans.

the collapse OF Russia, and addressed
itself uniquely to the task Of so re-
ducing the penalties to be inflicted

to sign the treaty of peace. In a
word, Poland was sacrificed to the po-
litical necessities Of those responsible
for making the treaty of peace in Paris
DESTROYS of having this peace accepted
by the Germans.
Paderewski has now come to Paris
to plead the cause of Poland. lie has
declared-and no one doubts his state

stance been supported and influenced
by Lloyd George There is at ]east
reason to believe that Lloyd George,
in the face Of the recent political up-
Eeaval in England, has changed front
and Is prepared to support the old ar
rangemeht. President Wilson stands
ilrm against giving Danzig to Poland
and inclines to favor creating an in
ternational free city France at all
times has steadfastly supported the
claim of the Poles and continues to ad-
vocate the only solution which could
insure the salvation Of Poland.
The question is now to become one
of the critical issues of the whole
Paris conference. Poland is not yet
lost, either to Bolshevism or to the
Germans, but unless the Paris Confer
ence returns to its original decision
1t is possible to expect Bolshevism in
Warsaw as it is now in Budapest, as
it is expected in Vienna, as it is
threatened in Rumania.

peace conference, which is the
league of nations in it's first stage, to
adopt toward Bolshevism such a policy
as would restore peace in the world ha 3
been to destroy the prestige of the
league of nations as peace bringing
document.
The feeling in Paris to-day on all
sides is that the league of nations doc
ument when it is signed will remain
no more than document, because it
provides no power and no way to deal
with Bolshevism.
The failure of The Hague confer
ence in the presence of Germany in
arms discredited the earlier machinery
for promoting world peace.
The failure of the Paris conference
in the presence of anarchy out for con-
quest has had similar effect.
Meantime, Bolshevism marches from
success to success.
The British in Archangel are facing
disaster.
The French have evacuated Odessa.
The Crimea is about to be abandoned.
A real decline in the appeal of the
league of nations in Paris-a decline
which is one of the considerable cir
eumstances Of the last three weeks
has been the realization that, even when
constituted, the league of nations
would have no power to restore peace
in the world, because 1t would have
no power to repress anarchy on the
march.

Italy's altitude

Not less difficult is the question of
Fiume. Here President Wilson is
standing squarely against the bestowal

tho consequent deprivation of the new
Jugo- Slavic state of it's chief gateway

threatened to quit the Paris Confer

LABOR DELEGATES .
THREATEN To QUIT
CAPITAL MEET INC


washington, Nov 25,-Labor dele
gates to the international labor con-
ference threatened to withdraw today
if their proposals continued to be met
by "a hostile attitude" The threat was
by Conrad Ilg, of the Swiss delega-
ton, during discussion of the pro
posed eight-hour day convention,
when Chairman Jules earlier of the
Belgian delegation ruled out consid-
Grafton of wage guarantees, pro-
posed by Gino Baldesi, Italian labor
delegate.
An immediate rupture was prevent
ed when n compromise plan offered
by Leon Jouhaux, French labor dele
gate, was accepted.
Baldesi sought to have the pro-
posed international convention pro-
vidng for an eight-hour day so
framed as to guarantee that wages
would not be decreased because of a
decrease in hours. He anticipated
trouble in this regard, he said, in
countries where labor was not strong
ly organized The proposal, under
compromise plan adopted, Win be taxi
en- up by the conference for separate
discussion.
The eight-hour day proposal was
| received and sent to the drafting COM
| mittee.
Adoption of the proposal was
marked by heated arguments, but it
went through without further amend
ment. An effort by Mr. Ilg to provide
that workers should be paid for holi-
| days was defeated.
The international labor conference
took steps toward perfecting perma-
| Iafo in
the treaty of Versailles today with
announcement Of the creation. of the
governing body composed of twelve
| government representatives, six labor
representatives and six representing
capital. Through this body will be
established the international labor
office provided for in the treaty, and
which forms the agency through which
all labor clauses are to be worked
out.
