privileged claims Of France. have
dominated this peace conference at all
times So far as the United States
was concerned, speaking solely for Its
representation here in Paris, there
never was any sympathetic recoGnf-
ton Of French claims or French con
ditions, nor was there disposition on
the part Of Lloyd George to recognize
these claims until he was forced TO
change his direction by q very strong
protest in Great Britain, following
the unmistakable upheaval In France
With respect to France. the British
position was and remained peculiar.
For all future time the eastern IRON
tiers of France and Belgium Will be

Germany reached the channel In 1914
she would have closed the port of
London. ana ultimately bombarded the
city; as she did Paris. If Germany
ever again seeks to march westward
the same peril still threatens 4reat
Britain. and unless France makes the
same resistanea the danger for Eng-
land will be acute. Ther efore, as
many British leaders saw, and as
Lloyd George did not see. 1t was es-
sential for Great Britain that France
should emerge from this war strong
and able to defend herself. The rec
ognition OF this fact explains the
change of British policy at Paris dur

plies the reason why Great Britain Is
bound in any case to come to the aid
of France If she Is again attacked by
Germany. In this respect England
has but initiated the policy toward

| PARIS. May AT the moment when
the terms which have been agreed
upon by the conference of Paris are to
be transmitted to the enemy 1t is
worth while. perhaps. briefly to in
quire what this treaty of peace is. and
what it is not. as revealed alike in the
circumstances of its origin and in the
character of the document itself.
In the first place, this treaty of
peace is an Anglo Saxon settlement,
| but it is not in any sense settle
| ment of those questions out Of which
the war grew. In so far as Anglo
Saxon interests are affected the treaty
Is settlement, but the real settle
ment of these was the war itself. BY
the war Great Britain destroyed her
great commercial rival, and by the
peace she acquires the colonies of this
rival. The German punishment WAS
self-invited, the consequences to Ger
many are the consequences of a war
not less clear that with the destruc-
tion of German competition on the
sea Great Britain actually settled one
dispute existing between herself and
Germany.
In precisely the same fashion Ameri-
ca settled her difference with Ger
many: Our specific quarrel with Ger
many arose from the aggressions of
Germany which interfered alike with
the rights and with the lives of
American citizens. To defend these
we sent our troops to Europe, and
they supplied the decisive weight to
win the war. We thus vindicated our
rights and the power passed from
Germany to interfere with US. When
the armistice placed the German fleet
in British hands this quite as clearly
settled the question between the
United States and Germany:
May Lead to New Wars.
When we approach the continental
situation. however, 1T must be clear
that there has been no settlement.
We have restored Alsace Lorraine to
France, which was matter of justice.
and removed an ancient wrong, but In
bestowing the Saar coal region upon
France in recompense for the destruc-
ton of the French coal regions we
have so hedged about that hestowal
that we have created new basis for
difference between France and Ger
many which may easily lead 10 war.
We have, moreover, in giving only
vague assurances TO France with re-
Spect to the Rhine frontler In the
treaty of peace left still unsettled the
age-long problem of the defense of
France against Germany.
In the matter of Po,an1 our work
Is even more in the nature of patch

and Upper Silesia, which wer, hers oe

sian territory. which was Polish. but
we have not provided her with n GER
tain exit on the sea. We havo created
a preposterous corridor which no Ger
man will ever permit to endure pa
tiently, and we have denied to Roland
the actual ownershiD of the door at
the end Of the corridor, which is
Danzig.
Thus, in two very essential matters.

PRAISE Of AMERICA
FEATURE At TOXIC
Fiftieth Anniversary Of
Transfer Of Imperial Capt.
tai IS Celebrated.
U. S. ENJOYS ADDRESS

TOXIC. Friday, May . Cby the Asso-
ciated Press).-An Impressive cele-
bration of the fift1eth anniversary of
the transfer Of the imperial capital
from Kioto to Toxic took place here
today. The emperor and crown prince
participated, and the occasion was
marked by a historic tribute from
official Japanese to American Ambas-
sador Roland S. Morris, and through
him to America and the valor of the
American Army.
II took the form of a brilliant
luncheon by Minister of War Tanaka
In the famous Korakuen gardens. and
was for the purpose of commemorat-
ing the signature by Japan and Amer
rration of the Siberian railroad. the
successful conclusion of which by Mr.
Morris, after a month of difficult ne
sotiations, attracted attention in dip
Jomatic circles in the far east. In
larger sense the function was regard
ed as epoch making in the relations
between Japan and America, and as
indicating the inauguration of closer
harmony between the military and
ernment. At time when the press
las been violently attacking Amer
lea, the function was also significant
as voicing the views of the responsible
Japanese, who actually control the
conduct Of the empire. The premier
and his entire cabinet were present,
and among the eighty prominent
guests was William Potter of Phila-
delphia, president of Jefferson Medical

M. Tanaka's Tribute to q. s.

In addressing the assembly S. Ia
Haka said the world had already rec

America in the world war.
If Americas citizens had not been
loyal and brave, and if her national
power had not been so great, she
could not have planned what she did.
Even though she did not marshal her
entire strength on the battlefield,
America must be regarded as the ma
ton which humbled the enemy and
reduced him to helplessness," he said.
Referring to the American-Jap-
nnese expedition to Siberia, he said
it had easily attained its original OBJ
.iect and had subsequently co-operat-
ed with the allies for the rehabilita-
tion of Russia. He expressed the
opinion that America and Japan were

PERSHING HONORS
SERGT. YUILL CITED FOR EN-
TRAORDINARY HEROISM.

Sioux Falls, March "a Howard
boy has received high honors from
Gen. John j. Pershing in France, ac-
cording to a letter received by ID. A.
Mccullough, of Sioux Falls. The
young man is Sergt. Julius o. Yuill,
company M. 361st infantry, 91st di-
vision, and the citation Gen. Per-
shing gave him as announced at
American headquarters over there,
is as follows:
For extraordinary heroism in ac-
ton near Epinoville, France, Sep
TENDER 2, 1918. Accompanied by one
man Sergt. Yuill went forward to a
German trench, hand bombed it, kill
ing a German officer and two SOL
diers, and held the trench until rein
forced by a party of four. Fearing
that the Germans in the trench would
escape, he led these 500 meters
through sniper and machine gun fire,
cut off their means of escape and
captured 81 prisoners. On the same
day he killed an officer, who with
two men was attempting to set up a
machine gun to ambush the command
group. He followed the two men in
to their dugout and killed one of
them and with the help Of other
members of the command thoroughly
mopped the place."
In a letter from Sergt. Yuill, dated
February /, to Mr.. Mccullough, he
Imodestly refers to the decoration as
follows:
Gen. Black Jack Pershing was
here, inspected and reviewed us last
Monday and seemed real well pleased
with the appearance of the division.
He decorated a few Of the boys with
the d. S. C. and / was lucky enough
to draw me-. The old boy pinned on
the cross, handed each one a little
salve, shook hands and then took us
up to the reviewing stand with him
and watched the division pass in re-
view. They marched in French mass
formation with fixed bayonets.
There was snow on the ground and
the drab and flashing bayonets loom
ed up fine.

evenings and there is not much to do
