powers, Marshal Foch, Field Mar
shall Haig, Marshal Petain, General

was presented on the report from
the subcommittee, embracing mili-
tary and economic members. The re-
port was unanimous, including the
adherence of the American members,

man Davis, which indicates that eco
nomic measures figure in the new
terms equally with military meas
ures.

ing sitting from II until 1880 and

ly an army of at least 100000 men.
The council, secondly, according
to Havas, ito make Germany realize
that we are the conquerors and that.
it is not white peace that we
are seeking to impose on ii.

cilitateMthe resumption Of the en-
tente's works Of peace for the bene7
fit of Germany. The. council also

MOTHER
ENDS FREE LOVE
Law IN HUNGARY
Cabinet Member Explains
Communication" to Wife
and Mother, But Kills Law
After Storm Breaks.

Budapest, April 30-(Correspond-
ence of the Associated Press).-It
was due to family quarrel that
Hungary escaped having its women
"communized" after the fashion in
the Russian republic" Of Saratoff.
rather than to the adherence of
Bella Kun to the scheme as the
latter afterwards stated.
The law to communize women was
actually framed and in the printers
hands, ready for publication when
Herr Weltner, one of the cabinet
of bright young men who are now
ruling the fate of the former king
dom, went home for supper. During
the meal he told his wife and his
mothcr-in-law in glowing terms
about the project reforms.
What are you doing for women?"
they asked.
Explains New Law.
Weltner then explained that, in
future women would be free too;
that they would be permitted to
choose their husbands and dis
card them if they liked by
the simple process of paying
a few cents for a legal paper
declaring their "unftness" for mar
ried life. Further conversation de-
veloped the fact that the new law
also gave husbands the same right;
that children might be turned over to
the care of the state so that both
husband and wife would get rid of
the duties and responsibilities of
rearing their offsprings.
do you mean to tell me that you
can get rid of me from one day to
another and marry the next day if
you like?" demanded young Frau
Weltner.
That's how the law stands" re-
piled the husband.
The Lay Dies.
"Then the storm broke. Both
wife and mother-in-1aw began to
scream and a frenzied scene ensued,
the upshot Of which was that the
women demanded that Weltner
should get the law stopped or they
would leave him at once and would,
moreover, get all the wives, mothers
and mothers-in-law of all the min
listers to do the same.
Weltner in the interest of his
home comfort and peace eventually
promised to do his best and use his
influence with his fellow members
through his paper, the Peoples
Voice, to get the law repealed. He
had q conversation with Bella Kun
and the other ministers and then
called up the printers, telling them
that no proofs needed to be pulled
from the forms where the law lay
He also ordered that the type
should be melted up and the copy
destroyed.
1t was thus that the law died.
