AMERICANS ALSO SILENT

pointment of Mission to
Probe Jewish Massacres.
(By Lincoln Eyre.)

Paris, June 2O.-By Telegraph
From n. Y. World, Copyrighto--
British naval authorities here, while
mot denying that the blockade of
Germany has been resumed, as ex-
|clusively cabled to the world last
night. decline to comment on the rea-
sons for the move. why don't you
ask at the Hotel Crillon?" one Brit
isher inquired, but the Americans
were unable to cast any light on the
matter beyond reaffirming their de-
Termination not to permit American
food ships to be held up. II is un-
derstood that vessels detained in Fall
mouth win proceed Immediately on
their way toward Germany. The chief
event in dull day has been the ap-
pointment of an American mission to
Jewish pogroms in Po-
land. Lieut.. Col Warwick Greene,
who represented Food Commissioner
Hoover in the Baltic provinces. was
|offered the chairmanship of this COM
mission, but he prefers to continue
in his former line, of work. Know
ledge of Baltic conditions is specially
.needful at this time owing to the
Resignation of members of the Amer
Iican mission in Russia, because of
the big four's support of Admiral
Kolchak. The council of five is try
ling half heartedly to make some
sheadway towards the completion of
|the Austrian treaty. Their progress
bias been unimportant and no date
lcan be fixed for the presentation to
|the Austrians of the balance of the
treaty. Hope Is expressed by the
French officials that Matthias Err
Berger will construct a ministry pre-
Lnared to accept the treaty terms.

American troops drove his men back

he heard bursts of shrapnel where

Vital Changes in Clauses as to

lesian Plebiscite.

Paris, June 2U.-tA. P.)-The al

rated by the council of four in the
revised treaty make II a somewhat
longer document than the draft orig
inally submitted to the Germans and
published in the United States. II
now eQlnprises ia pages, five. more
'fifan We original, and even this was
effected by closer paging. At various
points the drafting committee sought
to adhere as far. as possible to the
original numbering of the articles
and contrived to make up for inser-
tions of omissions by combing or
splitting articles. As at first ar
ranged the new instrument still con-
tains the original fourteen parts and
440 articles.
The article assuring Silesan coal
and minerals to German industry now
reads:
POLAND undertakes to permit for
period of fifteen years the expor-
tation to Germany of the products of
mines in any part of Upper Silesia
transferred to Poland in accordance
with the present treaty, without ex-
port duties or restrictions. and per-
NIT the Germans to purchase these
products on the Same terms as the
Poles"
To Sponsor Danzg.
In the revised draft "the principal
allied and associated powers" under
take to establish Danzig as a free
city. This language in which the
responsibility of the five great powers
for the creation of the new city and
stituted for the original phraseology
declaring merely that "Danzig is es-
tablished as a free city"
The new article which replaces the
original provisions for the disarma-
ment of Germany, No. 1855, providing
for reduction to specified point
within two months, now reads In the
English version:
up to the time at which Germany
is admitted as a member of the
league of nations, the German army
shall not possess armament greater
than that fixed in the table submit
ted in this treaty." and continues:
Germany agrees that after she has
become a member of the league, the
armaments fixed by the table shall
remain in force until modified by the
council of the league. Furthermore,
she hereby agrees strictly to observe
the decisions of the council in this
respect"
Important changes are revealed by
comparison of the old and new
drafts relative to the new Polish
frontiers and the Silesian plebiscite.
The frontier changes correspond gem
orally with those outlined in recent
dispatches, but bring the Polish from
tier nearer to Breslau, on the east,
than was at first contemplated and
give Poland a new section of the
Prussian province of Pomerania in
exchange for the coast strip of the
same province returned TO Germany.
although the council of four planned
for awhile to make all Pomerania
German on historic grounds.
Some of the changes in the treaty
can be indicated only by reference to
maps of the largest scale

Paris, June t9.-(A. P,)--The definite

possibility of an increase as well as a

second contingency.

SHERMAN OBJECTS.
! ON RELIGIOUS GROUNDS
Intimates Sinister Purpose in
residents Visit to
\ Pope.

Washington, June 30.-Q. N. s.
Opposition to the league of nations
on religious grounds, was voiced in
the senate for the first time today
when Senator Lawrence Y. Sherman,
of Illinois, spoke on ecclesiastical
power in the league of nations" He
said in Tart.
What we are now concerned in is
TO pIcsclXc &Lsolute freedom of con-
scicrco and actual separation OF &C.
clesiastical from civil powers. From
an early age the occupants OF the
vatican have believed and still be-
licvc in the inherent right of papal
authority C administer civil govern
mcnt. It is with the utmost regret
I fail 10 find recorded in the course of
papal ciians of later days any re-

trlne In the event of a definite ex-
eI else of power by the vatican over
the members of its church, how far 1t
would sway their conduct, If it were
sought to IL sumo the exercise of tenn
poral authority as a part of the
spiritual jurisdiction is uncertain.
This uncertainty becomes of grave
concern in examining the league of
nations.
"Of the original thirty-tWo mem
ber nations signatories to the pro-
posed league, 28 are Christian ma
tions and four are of other faiths. OF
these twenty eight Christian ma
tions, seventeen are Catholic nations.
The sway over those people and their
implicit faith in the infallibility of
the head of this great religious or
ganization is supreme. 1t is a power

and it's exponents recognize the solid
rock of Roman Catholicism as a bar
rier in their way. The peril lies in
the claim of papal power never alb
iured never disavowed. There is
always danger in great power in one
hand coupled with such belief.
Twenty four of the forty equal
votes of the Christian nations. mem
bers of the league, are spiritually
dominated by the vatican. The vati-
can is the most earnest advocate OF
the covenant of the league of nations.
With twenty-four ont of forty mem
bers of that league under his spirit

quire extended argument aside from
the alleged merit of the document.

conferred with the vatican at Rome.
\ The great pontifical dignitary gives

we believe both the presidents visit
and the interview were not for pre-
conceived purpose. 1t reveals, too,
our absent president as making the
league of nations the paramount
q purpose of his presence at the peace
TABLE. Small wonder the fourteen
points were abandoned in the fren-
zied rush If the Hun had not been
invoking them constantly they would
have sunk from sight long ago"
In closing, Senator Sherman
charged that the vatican was not in
sympathy with the government of
Italy and said:
"While the evidence is circumstan-
tial, it all tends to connect President
Wilson with influences unfriendly to
the temporal power of Italy and in
imical to the future welfare of the
United States"
