DEFINITE PEACE
WITH GERMANY
NEXT PROBLEM
General Rehabilitation and
Resumption of Normal Ac-
tiVity is Required.
BY FRED s. FERGUSON.

By United Press:
PARIS. Feb. 15.-with the league
OF nations temporarily disposed OF,
the peace delegates today directed
their efforts toward affecting a def
mite preliminary peace with Ger
many. which will enable general
rehabilitation and resumption Of
throughout the world. Practically all
the conferees have agreed that this
Is the most vital problem now before
them.
The world Is now in a state OF
stagnation. Industries everywhere
are awaiting the actual signing OF
peace. and the growing unrest and
uncertainty in many countries can
be traced directly TO economic con-
ditions.
Food Last Until March.
Semi-official reports from Ger
many indicate that country has
enough food 10 last until March
New crops viii not be available be-
fore June. In the interim. conditions
OF actual starvation may prevail and
bring about serious disturbances un-
less steps to meet this situation are
taken speedily. A preliminary peace
would correct these conditions and
would be comparatively simple in
accomplishment. The military status
could be fixed by demanding imme-
diate rehabilitation upon a peace
basis. The allies could agree what
Germany should pay in the way OF
indemnities and how she should pay
II and this could be appOrtioned
among the interested nations. After
this was disposed OF, the economic
status could be fixed by agreeing TO
what extent the economic blockade
would be lifted. That some such pro-
gram will be partially arranged un-
der the new provisions for extern
sion OF the arn1istice is limited at in
certain official quarters. These provi-
sions will be presented to the Ger
mans by Marshal Foch at Treves,
Monday.
Much Additional Work.
Considerable additional work must
be done to perfect the plan, however.
and toward this end and the newly
created supreme economic council
viii cooperate closely with the SUI
preme war council and it is expected
that further requirements from Ger
many will develop as the armistice
is renewed from time 70 time. re-
sulting gradually in what will vir-
tualIy amount to Ia preliminary
peace. There is some disposition,
though, 10 make this process a mat
ter OF immediate accomplishment.
rather than extending il over an in
definite period.
The principal opposition TO lessen
ing the economic pressure against
Germany comes from the French
who fear the advantages Germany
might gain II she were permitted to
obtain plenty Of raw materials.

The fearless scout raised mis-
head among the tufts of grass and
gazed at the enemy with bright
blue eyes beneath a crop OF curly
hair. The enemy had not observed
him. So the small boy playing SOL
diers crept a little nearer and raised
his toy gun to his shoulder.
At this point the man hunched up
on the grassy turf became aware of
some movement behind him. He
turned. IL was then that he made the
mistake he realized too late. The lit
tie tin rifle clicked, but the man was
unused to childish games. He should
have PROMPTLY collapsed face-down-
wards on the sward; instead he look
ed at the curly head and smiled.

What a splendid little fellow he was
How his father must love him.
At the word father" he saw the
woman shudder and turn away her
head. Vaguely now ne remembered
certain rumors which had reached
him concerning the man this woman
had married. Mere echoes they had
been but unsavoury. Stories of dist
patton. A wave of pity, of passionate
sympathy came over him.
You left him." he asked
He died-thank God" She an

A period of silence followed; but

was stirring in his sleep. The man

He takes after you" he said
The woman smiled.
Il love to hear you say So
They chatted a while on indiffer-
ent things. There was no need for
him TO stay. but there was an air Of
peaceful seclusion about the tiny
parlor that held him like a spell. He
felt dazed, too. DaZed with a sud
den realization of what might have
been. Children had never appealed
to him, and whatever of the spirit
of fatherhood in him il had up to
the present lain dormant. But in the
last week or two something had
sprung up within him that he could
not explain; something fundamental
but vague.
He shifted restlessly in his chair
and looked out through the cottage
window where he could see the
nearby woods, their luxuriant foliage
flooded with golden sunshine. He
rose to his feet ano held out his
hand.
The woman took IT,
Its hail and farewell he said
a ghost of a smile on his lips, 1T
have neglected my business too long.
I return TO town tomorrow"
She did not speak, and the man
stood holding her hand. 1t was the
first time he had touched it for 10
long years, and he would not have
dared 10 touch il now had he real
lied what that contact would have
meant. AS when the warm spring
sun first strikes the snow-clad noun
tain peaks and the melting ice
streams headlong down the rugged
cliffs. so. at the long-loved touch
the frozen marrow of his soul gusn-
ed warm and limped down into the
valley of his greater being.
He made an effort TO reach the
open-standing door, then wavered,
resting his hand against the Intel.
The woman was standing as he had
left her. one hand upheld and press
ed against her heart. He turned and
saw her. With outstretched hands
as one who walks in darkness. he
moved toward her.
Mary" he said in faltering tones.
II have found my heart at last. L.
il too late"
For answer she folded him to her
breast.
Where love is. time is not" she
murmured.
