". Il. A. stan Correspondent

PARIS. April s:-What will the
allies do in case the Germans refuse
to sign the peace treaty?
Starve them?
Occupy all Germany with troops?
The American peace commission
doesn't seem to like either OF those
alternatives.
Without giving whatever answer
they have up their sleeves the dele
gates shake their heads negatively to
these methods, which have been
noised about since JUNIORS began
coming from Germany that the Huns
were talking rebelliously of declining
to agree to terms they consider too
harsh.
"fts unfortunate Germany wasn't
disarmed 1T the beginning" said
plenipotentiaries. regretfully. "All
would be we'll now"
Obviously he was thinking OF the
tremendous rise in power and the re-
turn of prestige of the military clique
in Germany.
1t is the French who are blamed
generally for h failure Of the allies
to disarm the enemy Immediately af-
ter the close of hostilities.
French Refuse to Worry
The French, however, do not seem
20 be worried much over the prospect
of the Germans not signing the
treaty. They take their cue from
Marshal Foch. who recently said:
s-The Germans will sign anything we
lay before them.''
Other great minds at the peace
table are not quite so sanguine.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1919-04-08
WHAT WILL WE DO IF HUNS|
REFUSE TO SIGN PEACE TREATY?

The American public, at least,
Won't stand for Germany being
starved into signing" said one.
Much as they despise the Huns. they
will hardly agree that starving is the
antidote. That's my opinion"
Another declared his positive be-
lief that the American people will
not stand for American troops going
into Berlin and the rest Of Germany
to collect indemnity money.
The troops came owe to crush
militarim," he said. mot to become
tax collectors."
Occupying Germany wouldn't
make the Germans sign the treaty.
according to his view.
Occupation is Costly
IF we went in we would only
break up the existing government
and then we'd have to administer 1t
at u expense. That would be
a sure way not to collect indemnity.
Therefore we would have a double
loss-the expense of running the
ty."
Most allied delegates are reluctant
to talk of this phase OF the peace
conference situation. They are keep
ing their solutions to themselves.
Many are optimistic.
Il think Germany will sign all
right" said me of these, but it will
be a bad. not TO say dangerous, situa-
ton If every young man in Germany

ZONE FARES FOR STREET CARS

To keep a street railway going money enough must be obtained to pay
all of its obligations.
and the only source of revenue a street railway has is CARFARES.
With these two fundamental facts before it, this company accepted
the order of the Public Utility Board, made July 10 last, to submit a eqnt.
able coming system over its entire territory that would more properly re-
sate the cost Of service with the length of haul and value If service"
Let it be kept in mind that the Public Service Railway system can not
be compared with the railways of New York or Chicago, or Philadelphia, or
other compact and populous communities where the density Of trahlc is very
great and practically all tn. riding is in urban sections.
Public Service Railway serves AL municipalities, more than hf ot
which have less than 5000 population each. Some have lest than lNV.
These municipalities are located from ne enc of the State to he oher
and require 900 miles of tracks to serve them.
To "properly relate the cost of service" means ito have every rher pay
a Just proportonate share of such cost. IS Is exauy "h" inc oo"P""s

Street, railway costs are properly diviible into two classes standby
and Enforcement" costs. This principle has been recognized by utility or
railroad commissions If various States, including those OF Wisconsin, Masa'

"standby" costs apply to every rider alike; Movement costs vary
