ALLIES HAND Revised
TREATY TO GERMANS
Blamed for Inhuman War in
Letter by Clemenceau Which
Recites Foes Wrongs.

Paris.-The final reply of the allied
and associated powers on the condi-
lions of peace handed to the Germans
at Versailles May was delivered to
the German delegation and made pub
lie soon afterward.
The principles of the original condi-
lions have been vigorously upheld as
establishing a peace of justice, but GER
tain notifications in detail and many
explanations of the effect of the exc
cution of the terms are made.
The changes include:
A plebiscite for Upper Silesia, with
guarantees of coal from that region.
Frontier notifications in West Prus-
STA.
The omission of the third zone from
the Schleswig plebiscite.
A temporary increase Of the permit
ted strength of he Germany army
from 100000 to 100000.
A declaration of intention to submit
within month of the treaty's sigma
ture a listiof those accused of viola
ton of the laws and customs of war.
An offer to cooperate with Ger
man Commission or Preparations and
to receive suggestions for discharging
the obligation.
Certain detailed notifications in the
financial, economic and ports and wa
terways clauses, including the abolt~
ton of the proposed Kiel Canal Com.
mission.
Assurance to Germany of member
ship in the League of Nations
Georges Clemenceau, president Of
the peace conference, in his reply to
the German counter proposals, says:
"Justice, therefore, is the only pos
sible basis for the settlement of the
accounts of this terrible war. Justice
is what the German delegation asks
for and says that GERMANY has been
promised But it must be justice for
all. There must be justice for the
dead and for the wounded and for
those who have been made orphans
and bereaved that Europe might be
free from Prussian despotism.
There must be justice for the peo-
pies who now stagger under war debts,
which exceed thirty billions, that lib
erty might be saved. There must be
justice for those millions whose homes
and lands, ships and property Ger
man savagery has spoliated and de-
strnyed."
