Phil. Ledger Cop. Cable )-There are
many indications OF concerted effort
by German propaganda to suggest that
Germany should refuse TO sign the pre-
liminary peace terms. This appeared
more than a fortnight ago when that
accomplished propagandist, Professor
Hoetzch, of Berlin, published an article
in the Vienna Neue Freie Presse, sug-
gesting that unless the fourteen points
of Wilson inspired the treaty, Germany
should adopt the attitude of the Rus
slams at Brest-Litovsk and refuse to
sign. IL became more evident lmme-
diately after a rupture in negotiations
at Spa.
The Hamburger Nachrichtem for ex-
ample, wrote that it had now become
clear the allies were masking a fero-
cious policy of revenge under a pre-
tended league of nations. It attributed

tests are all very well in their way.

NO BLUNDER UNMADE

Paris, March 25.-The decision of the
supreme council of the peace conference
to allow nothing to be published regard
ing its proceedings but the official COM
munique has aroused the indignation of
the Paris press. Those newspapers whose
habit it is to comment upon foreign
affairs condemn the action in strong
terms The others follow the COM
munique with a few sarcastic observa-
tions. Raymond Recoly, for instance.
writes in the Figaro:
when the situation is so disquieting.
at q moment when the allied govern
ments. who, having left no blunder un-
made. are more than ever in need Of
the support of public opinion. they raise
a regular Chinese wall between the pub
lie and themselves"
The Matin says of the decision: ut
is not for us TO Judge the method. which
is likely to be gravely dangerous, still
further adding to the growing anxiety
in the entente countries"
The nature of the "pertinax" article
in the Echo de Paris may be sufficiently
described by its caption. which reads:
THE Council of Ten Goes Under

made a heroic resolution. 1t has de-
