PRESS MAKES CHARGES.
Newspapers Dissatisfied over Delay
at Peace Conference.


+ LONDON March Morning
newspapers unanimously charge the
Paris peace conference with respon-
sibility for Hungary's embracing Boil
shevism and the general dissatisfac-
tion over the delay of peace. but
the manner i'm which il has incur
red responsibility is variously ex-
planned
While treating the Hungarian ep~
isolde more lightly than others. be-
cause it does not believe the whole
country will, initiating Budapest. be-
come Bolshevik, the Post accuses
the conference Of delaying peace
while its idealists are following the
will-o-the-wisp. called the league OF
nations" 1t also expresses its be-
lief that certain international fuan-
eial interests are working against
the independence OF Poland.
The newspapers panacea ia to
treat the diplomatic situation as II
was treated militarily when every
thing was entrusted to Marshal
Foch, and it suggests that supreme
direction be given Premier Clemen-
ceau so that probable failure arising
from divided councils may be avoid
ed"
The Chronicle thinks Hungary has
given healthy shock to public opin-
ion and that II the council OF 10
responds it may prove blessing in
disguise.
"If the council OF 10" II says.
had not for many months shown
marked incapacity for action, no one
need doubt the result. The
allies held an almost irresistible
weapon. namely. food. but by sheer
bungling and by disagreements and
procrastinations have bfunted it's
edge"
The newspaper maintains the rem
edy now Is prompt and combined
military action against the Magyar
government
Conferences, delays and and re-
iusal to face the Russian problem
are dira2tlys responsible for the pres
ent disdifeting situation, says ttla
Mail
"W While the conference talks the
Bolshevilti act The fruits of inn
mense sacrifices on the battlefield
are neing imperiled because the con
ference cannot attend to the bust
MSS FOR the dispatch of which il ex-
lists.
The Daily News deduces that the
league of nations has been an OBJ
stacle To the conclusion of peace ct
says:
The tragic situation is due to tho
failure of the allies to provide the
central empires with food and raw
materials while the conference has
been attempting TO reconcile the pol
icy of territorial spoilation with the
spirit OF the league of nations"
The newspaper also condemns tho
refusal OF the peace conference to
recognize gud make terms with the
Russian Boshevik government.

GASOLINE DOWN; NOT HERE

Gasoline in the larger centers ex.
