panacea Is to treat the diplomatic situa-
ton as II was treated militarily when
everything was entrusted TO Marshal
Foch, and It suggests that supreme dlrec-

that probable failure arising from
divided councils may be avoided"

PARIS. March 2o.--The situation has
ments In Hungary may yet turn out TO
be blessing in disguise II they force the
Paris Council to take the fences which
they have been baking al ever since
they first met.
We have been told for many weeks
that one OF the great dangers and diff
culues OF the situation would be that
when ready to conclude peace the Allies
might md no Governments with which
to sign a treaty. This Is precisely the
threat made by the events at Buda pest.
which, whether they be to q certain ex-
tent artificial, are bound to have their
influence In Germany itself. The Ger
man Government appears already to be
aware OF the fraIlty of its position and
the despatch OF Karl Kautsky to nego-
tiate with the Bolsheviki Is AT act which
will most certainly encourage the Spar
tacan elements in the country.
Moreover, the effect OF Hungarian Boil
shevism in and along the eastern from
tiers OF the Allies in Poland and in Ru-
mania Is bound 20 be felt now that
Count karolyi has thrown up the sponge
and the position of the Rumanians and
Poles Is certain to become every day
more difficult unless something Is done
by the Allies to help them and done
quickly.
Serbia, Greece and Bulgari cannot az
ford to look indifferently upon this bound
forward OF Soviet anarchy, which has
really burst as a bombshell In the COM
paratively peaceful atmosphere OF the
Peace Conference.
Ono thing 10 certain, and whether or
not the Hungarian movement has been
organised by German agents makes no
difference. Tho outbreak is going to
strengthen German hands enormously
when she comes to the las: card OF
blackmail and offers the Allies the
choice OF defeat instead OF victory or
of seeing Germany using Bolshevism in
a last desperate effort to recover her
lost supremacy by putting herself at
the head of the Russian movement and
threatening the Western Europe with a
struggle as long and as determined as
that which followed tho French Revolu-
ton.
Such arc the possibilities which are
