PARIS OPINION plvIpEo.

handed to the German plenipotentia-
r1es Monday was printed textually
here today, but added little to the
general knowledge of changes In the
treaty. The memorandum deals hard
ly more precisely with alterations and
amendments than did the Official sum-
mary cabled Monday to the United
States.
1t is apparent from the memoran-
dunn that the Red letter treaty" CON-
municated to the Germans Monday is
the document of supreme interest to
Germany and the world It will be
necessary to await publication of the
amended treaty to obtain any exact
or even adequate notion of the many
alterations which are indicated In the
memorandum only in some such form
as I'VE, therefore, altered this para
graph of the treaty"
Those familiar with the amended
treaty maintain that the German au-
thorities can, on the basis of the
amended instrument make out tell
ing argument for signature based on
concessions obtained through nego-
tiations"
Opinion in Paris as to the eventual
attitude of the Germans is divided. It
is believed, however, that the Ger
mans knowing the certain results of
a refusal to sign, will in the end agree
to the terms. It is said by those IA
miliar with the changes in the treaty
that the German leaders can, If they
wish, make 1t appear that they have
gained concessions by negotiations.

ARMY WORM STILL
SPREADS IN HENRY
COUNTY; LOSS $4,000

NEWCASTLE, Ind, June 18.-Dev-
astation caused by the march of the
army worm in Prairie township con-
tinued Tuesday afternoon and We'd
nesday morning, despite the utmost
efforts of 200 farmers who gathered
and dug trenches, plowed burrows and
poured gasoline, crude oil and Paris
green in the burrows.
The county commissioners, meeting
in special session Tuesday evening.
voted $500 to be used for the suppress
sion of the worm, and County Agent
Ralph Test Immediately ordered a
large tank of gasoline to be sent to
the scene of the fight, miles north
of Newcastle. The loss Tuesday eve
ming was between 5000 and $4,000,
and it is estimated the loss will be
$4,000 per day for every day the worm
continues to spread.
DELAWARE LOSS 100000.
MUNCIE. Ind, June 1S.-Loss in
Delaware county alone from the army
worm has amounted to 100000, it is
estimated. Hundreds of farmers are
working day and night to save the
crops in the infested districts. It is
believed that there is hardly wheat
corn. rye or timothy field in the coun-
ty which is not infested. Total crop
loss this spring from all sources
amounts to about s250.000, it is esti
mated by County Agent Treasure.

The cabinet met Tuesday noon and

said to be increasing In Wefmer.
1t was expected that the amended
conditions would be laid before the
German national assembly today by
the cabinet.

the allied reply to the German coun-
ter-proposal to the terms of peace. the
Frankfort Gazette says:
Whatever we do will be terrible.
Germany is In no position to refuse
to sign the treaty when the signature
Is forced by an ultimatum Let us
resign ourselves to the inevitable and
hope for better future
In concluding a violent denuncia-
ton OF the treatment given Germany
by the allies, the Vorwaerts says:

cr1bes the war as the greatest crime

Is yet another and greater crime ag-
