about has taken off all the margin of
profit, they claim. Three cargoes

three more will be got out, which may
be the last for some time, the quarry

Ru As,ociated PrAs,

Paris, Jan. 25. = Responsive to de-
mands in the United States and Great
Britain, which are echoed in Ger
many, for an immediate conclusion of
the peace treaty, efforts are being
made to hasten the adoption of plan
for league of nations. 1t is declar-
ed to be the conviction of the dele

made until certain principles to gov
ern the relations between the states
have been accepted by the peace con-
ference. -- ....
Such questions as the rearrange-
ment of boundaries, the assumption
of indemnities and reparations and
the creation of constituted authorities
are regarded as the very basis or
the treaty of peace and not only the
American delegates, but also the
British and French delegates are un-
derstood to be of the opinion that
these things cannot be safely COM
posed in special peace treatrles, but
must be founded upon the genera
principles forming the basis of a
league of natoins.
Another consideration is the ItKeii-
hood that ie the treaty Of peace is
signed first. there will be little dis
position among the delegates to linz

Tip grasped the end of the branch

The horse started at a good pace,

Now, the Saw-Horse remembered
that this word was the command to
go as fast as he could; so he began
rocking along the road at a tre-
