DISCUSSION AT WASHINGTON
Several Views Taken Of Alleged Jap
anese Activities.

Washington, April 3.-While await
ing official word from Mexico regard
ing the reported land concession in
Lower California to Japanese inter-
ests, diplomats, officials and members
of Congress discussed the situation at
length.
Mexican and japanese diplomats
continued to minimize the importance
of the alleged movement of Japanese
interests while members of Congress
saw in the action serious danger Some
of the latter who are opposing the
proposed league of nations say that
the situation proves conclusively the
necessity of adhering to the Monroe
Doctrine in whatever league may be
formed.

Paris Conference Now Has Concrete
PROPOSAL From Russia.

Paris, April 3.-There is now before
the peace conference a definite and
concrete proposal from the Russian
government for cessation of hostilities.
1t bears Premier Nikolai Lenine's sig
nature. There is also authoritative
information that Karl Kautsky, Ger
man radical, is in Moscow trying to
arrange a formal alliance between
Germany and Russia.

Drafting Committee Completes
Work on Covenant Changes
for World League.
HAS SEVERAL ADDITIONS
Announcements of Final Text Expected
Before Close of Present Week
Big Four" Considers Ques-
tion of Reparaton.

Paris, April 3.-Consideraton of
the question of reparation and the
disposition of the Rhine valley was
continued by the council of four,
comprising President Wilson and
the premiers of France, Great Brit
ain and Italy, when the session of
the counsel was resumed. 1t is
understood to be probable that at
least three more days will be occu-
pied with these subjects. Ameri-
can financial experts were called
into the session.
Paris, April 3.-The work of revis-
ing the covenant Of the League of
Nations has been completed by the
drafting committee, and the peace con-
ference commission on the league, of
which President Wilson is chairman,
will take up the matter at once.
1t is even reasonable to suppose the
whole covenant as revised will be
made public by the end of the week in
the form in which it will go into the
peace treaty.
The revision has been the work of
addition rather than elimination.
Internal Affairs Excepted.
The revision does not contain the
clause requested by the Japanese con-
cerning the equality of races. AS to
the Monroe doctrine, nobody is allowed
to say at this moment whether the spe-
cific naming of that doctrine as thing
exempt is in the covenant or not, but
there is full assurance that America
has nothing to fear on that score.
The special features concerning the
revised charter which may be safely
predicted are that it contains a clause
specifically restraining the league from
dealing with the internal affairs Of any
state, and clause providing for with
drawal from membership after due no
tice, probably two years.
Taft cabee Amendments.
The cabled memorandum from for
mer President w. II. Taft on that
point was submitted to the committee.
Oscar Strauss, representing the Taft
league in Paris, cabled Mr.. Taft for
suggestions of amendments essential
10 the American senate COHIrlndllOH.
Mr.. Taft cabled the following:
More specific reservation of the
Monroe doctrine. Fix the term of
duration of the league and the limit
of armament. Require expressly una
nimity of action In the executive coun-
Gil and the body of delegates. Add to
Article XIV provision that where the
executive council or the body Of dele
gates find a difference to grow out Of
an exclusively domestic policy 1t shall
recommend no settlement.
Near Agreement on Reparation.
The big four" are not far apart on
the Saar valley solution and are get
ting closer.
Reparation is the hardest of all the
peacemaking puzzles before the con-
ference. So far it has been a greater
cause of delay than fixing boundaries.
Incidentally, much responsibility for
making reparation such cause of de-
lay is put on Lloyd George. The son-
tion which seems to be in sight for the
Saar valley now is to work out some
method by which France may have
the coal product of that region, while
the territory still belongs to Germany

Peace Treaty VIII Not Be Given Ger
mans at Versailles. t

London, April 3.-The preliminary
peace treaty will not be submitted to
the German delegates at Versailles, ac-
cording to the latest information re-
ceived here from French sources. The
treaty, 1t is said, will be handed to
the Germans at some town farther
from Paris, as has been the rule with
other conventions since the armistice

Secretary Glass Expresses Con-
fidence in Financial Stand
ing of the Nation.
REPLIES TO SENATOR
Treasury Official Asserts Fifth Bond
Issue VIII Have the Backing of
United and Victorious
People"

Washington, April 3.-Secretary
Glass, in replying to the suggestion of
Senator Calder of New York that
special session of congress should be
called to stop depreciation in the mar
ket price of Liberty Bonds, expressed
confidence in the financial condition
of the country and its ability to float
the forthcoming Victory loan.
Far from agreeing that the decline
in outstanding bonds might jeopardize
the popular campaign for flotation Of
the Victory issue this month, thereby
tying up credits by forcing the banks
to take the new bonds, Mr.. Glass de-
clared the Treasury's efforts to solve
the financial problems Of the country
would have the support of united
and victorious people"
Result of Artificial Causes.
Depreciation in bonds, he said, has
been the result of artificial causes and
he knew of no one who did not be-
lieve Liberty bonds would sell above
par before maturity.
There is today no insufficiency OF
credit for the needs of any useful en-
terprise nor insufficiency of gold to
support our credit structure" Secre-
tary Glass declared. The Secretary's
reply was in letter to the New York
senator
Already commerce and industry be-
gin to show signs OF the renewed life
which must follow the removal of the
restraints and interferences which war
made necessary" the Secretary said.
THE war is won. Our present ma
tional debt of less than $25,00O, ,000, 900
and our ultimate debt after all war
bills are paid, which ought not in any
which we shall hold some $10,000,000 j.
600 OF obligations of foreign govern
ments, is the barest fraction of our ma
tional resources.
THE discontinuance of government
interference with the foreign ex-
changes made possible by the cessa-
tion of hostilities, has demonstrated
the true position of dollar exchange,
which not only is at premium In rela-
tion to the currencies OF all of the
European countries which we're en-
gagged in the war, but has now ap-
preached par or actually reached a
premium with respect to the curren-
cies of European neutrals.
Greatest Reserve in World.
Our reserve, the greatest In amount
In the world, the greatest in relation
to circulation and deposit In any of the
countries which were engaged in the
war, was on March %, 1919, 51.9 per

This compares most favorably with
combined reserve of 49.S per cent
