approach very nearly the character Of
the league which the French govern
ment has favored right along. as print
ed IN one of my dispatches to The
tribune some time prior to President
iison's sailing for Europe. The
French idea Of league was that the
nations which had Whipped Germany
were already Il league, and would re-
main league after the war for carry
ing out the articles of The peace treaty.
Several passages from the Presidents
address yesterday are construed as an
appeal to this French view. For in
stance: "Therefore the United States
should feel that it's part in this war
should be played in vain if there en-
sued upon it abortive European settle
ments. 1t would feel that it could not
take part in guaranteeing these Euro
pean settlements unless that guarantee
involved the continuous superintend-
ence OF the peace of the world bv the
associated nations Of the world"
Status of Germany Interests
There Is much interest here in the
paragraph of the resolutions indorsinq
the league which specifics what ma
tons can join it, since there has been
difference of opinion not only in the
United States but abroad, as to wheth
er Germany should be admitted The
resolution states that the league
should be open to every civilized ma
tlon which can be relied on to promote
its objects"
This raises the point, it is asserted
that certainly the British and French
would not be able conscientiouslv to
write the name of Germany in as to be
"reled on to promote" the objects Of
the league, even if they should concedc
that Germany were civilized.
Il think the appointment Of the com
mittee and the adoption of the resolu-
tion,' said Senator Hitchcock. "is emf
nently satisfactory. imagine that
those attacking the treaty when it
comes up for ratification will, instead
of attacking along the lines they have
been following, attempt to rdicule the
proposed league as an Intellectual in
strument, without the power to enforce
the peace which it is intended to pro
tect.'

Siberia, Caucasus
And Crin,eo PIead for
Allied Recognition,

PARIS, Jan. 24.-The governments Of
Siberia, the Caucasus and the Crimea
have addressed to the Russian repre-
sentatives gathered in Paris a declara-
tion to be presented to the Allied and
associated governments. 1t is in the
form OF an appeal for help and Justice.
The declaration recapitulates recent
events in Russia and sets forth that
the anti-Bolshevik forces are fighting
Tor their country, for true liberty and
for broad democracy based on the
same principles and ideals for which
the Allies entered the present war
The Bolsheviki, on the other hand,
are declared to have rerudiated their
country and established a reign of ter
ror with the object OF extending it
throughout the world. The Bosheviki,
the declaration adds, are a small mi
monty which has succeeded in ilnpos-
ing tyrannical system by violence
The governments in addressing the
Allies and associated governments say
they are equally against past and pres
ent auctocracy and that they are only
aiming to establish throughout Russia
a modern, progressive and enlightened
torn OF government. granting to all
racial sects cultural freedom on the
broadest lines, thus insuring the
widest possible autonomy and the main
tenance of the unity of the nation.
This declaration was agreed upon by
the three governments before the de-
clsion Of the Supreme War Council
concerning the proposed meeting at
frlnces' Islands. 1t is now being trans
lated and will be ready for presenta-
ton to the Allied and associated GOV
ernments next week.

PARIS, Jan. 26.-According to The
latest American estimate, Germany is
now maintaining an army os from
fifty to sixty divisions. or approx
mately 100000 men under arms, CON
trasting with the number of 100000
of Germany's pre-war footing
These figures, as we'll as Germany s
munitions supply and output will be
thoroughly investigated by an inter
Allied commission, consisting of Win
ston Churchill. Louis Loucheur, French
Under Secretary Of Munitions; Field
Marshal Foch. General Bliss and Gen
eral Diaz. Their investigation will start
Immediately and thcir report is ex-
pected in few weeks
When the armlstice terms were ar
ranged, the Allied leaders expected
they would have to deal with stable
government and the old German mill
tary machine. The events of the last
three months have shown that both
calculations were wrong. The German
government is far from stable, and,
after the pounding of the final days
of the war, the military machine is
creakng in all it's joints The Allies
do not want to maintain more troops
than are absolutely necessary to guar
antee safety and assure them that
their strength is sufficient to enforce
order.
Reconstruction Problems Urgent
The commission must investigate the
question of German moral and military
organization and make disposition of
troops accordingly The quicker this
is done the sooner will the respective
statesmen be i'll position to tackle the
great reconstruction question in their
own countries, where industrial unrest
