Hun Army Was Whipped.

An American correspondent, Frank II. SimondS, cabling from Paris. says: :: German public men are making des- perate efforts, with certain success in some directions. to give the impression that the German surrender last No- vember was due solely to the prinei- pies of the fourteen points,
 This simply means that the German officials are trying to make their peo- nle believe their army and their navy were mdefeated last November and that when surrender came it was not forced but voluntary, because of de sire to end the war in behalf of all peoples.
 American army officers, some of whom are in Washington, and scores of them still in France, know that this German contention is lie. that the German authorities know that it is Il lie, and that the people of Germany ought to be made tO know that 1t is Il lie
 One of the worst features of this at tempt on the part of the German high command iS to make it appear that their armies were not in bad way last November is that thousands of Americans seem to think the same thing. They are just as badly in formed on the subject as are many pf tbn t,aonIa

 TREATY AND LEAGUE
BELIEF IS IT WILL DO THIS HOWEVER, WITH SERIES OF
 RESERVATIONS FOR FUTURE.
ALLIES WOULD NOT OBJECT
England and France Want United States in the League of Nations as Next Best Thing to an Actual AL liance.
gv EDWARD B. CLARK.

WaShington.-Men who are ae- counted keen observers of legislative situations seem to believe today that the peace treaty and the league covenant will be sanctioned by the United States senate in the form that they are written, but that there will be q series of written reservations passed by the senators which will con eern themselves with the attitude of the United States III the future to- wards certain provisions of the dOcu- ment or documents.
 Of course it cannot yet be definitely determined whether this view of the situation is correct one, but 1t iS Il fact that men who are opposed to the covenant as it stands and men who are in favor of 1t agree i'll effect that the outcome is to be as above written.
 What the reservations will be in their entirety cannot be told, but it is known that in part they will concern themselves with immigration ques- tions, with the Monroe doctrine, and probably with some things connected with rights of withdrawal from the league and with suggestions concern ing tue armed part which the United States is expected to bear in case of embroglios.
 I have talked with men who are in touch with the foreign feeling on such an outcome as that outlined above. It seems that the British and the French are perfectly willing to al- low the United States to make it's reservations Reservations or no reservations. the covenant will go in To effect and the future, so far as The SenateS action iS concerned, will he allowed to take care of itself, the be- lief of the foreigners apparently be ing that nothing which the senate shall insist upon ill separate doeu- ment will affect the smoothnesS of the running of the worlds affairs.

One learns one thing, however, in Wash ington through direct and indirect touch with visiting foreigners, and the facts may just as well be faced. It is not to be supposed that the French and British are in love with the League of Nations so much because they believe It will solve all the war problems of the universe. or that il will prevent for all time territorial and racial bickerings. They want the League of Nations mainly because the United States will be party to it, and France and England barring the possibility of an actual alliance with the United States, feel that the league is the next best thinQ
