PARIS, Jan , The view is now held
in American official quarters that the
attitude of the British leaders shows
such coordination with the American
viewpoint as will facilitate mutual
agreement before the peace congress.
After the close of the recent confer
euccs and the public demonstrations at
tending President Wilson'S visit to Lon
done, one of the foremost British states
men summed up the situation by saying:
4 would not think of hayng the peace
congress close until it had established a
League of Nations as outlined by Presi-
dent Wilson, az the British nation has
clearly shown that it expects that to be
done"
Mr. Bafour the British foreign secre-
tary, after his conference here has pro.
ceedcd 10 Cannes, where he viii remain
until the middle of next week He and
Premier Lloyd George will be in Paris on
the return OF President Wilson from
Italy
II is then that the real work Of inter.
allied conference will begin. This will
not be by any formal meeting around the
table at the outset, as Comparatively
few delegates will be in Paris at that
time.
But the informal conferences will be
progressively important from then ON
rs the informal conferences will merge
into the formal inter-allied conference
and that will gradually merge into tn,
peace congress. without any exact delimi
tatiOn OF dates
II is understood that a special commit
Tee will be designated to formulate plaI
for a Society Of Nations. on which tn,
French member will probably be Leoi
Bourgeois, and the English member Lore
Robert Cecil. both of whom are believed

The principal object which Col Hous
had in view in going TO see Presiden
Wilson New Years morning was to tel
