RHINE DEFENSE
Indications Point to Approval

Claims.
EVERYONE is SATISFIED
This Is Expressed View OF
American-Germans to Be
Called in April rs.
(By John r. Parkerson

Paris, April 15.-U. N. S0-Semi-
official confirmation of the report that
tue French claims with reference to
the Rhine defenses have been ap-
proved by the United States to the
satisfaction of the French ENJOYS IN
dicates that France, Great Britain
and America are virtually In an aili-
ance to prevent any possible German
aggression across the Rhine in the
future. In other words. Great Brit
ain and America undertake to guar
antee for all time that there shall be
no hostile action against France
across the Rhine.
While the American delegates will
not admit that 1t goes this far. It Is
intimated that Premier Clemcnceau
will make a statement when he Is
ready.
II has been known for some time
that Frances proposals include a
zone of fifty kilometers (thirty miles)
east Of the Rhine to be policed for
an indefinite period by allied and as
sociated troops. Whether this means
that there will be an American army
in Rhine territory indefinitely cannot
be definitely ascertained. But In

pointed out that President Wilson
has said that France Is the outpost
OF civilization" and 1t is believed that
he has not changed his Views. Thus
it may be possible that an agreement
may provide that II France should
again be attacked Great Britain and
America would come to her assist
ancc.
Now that It Is settled that the Ger
mans will be called In April rs, the
conference secretaries will immedt-
ately meet to settle the question OF
drafting the treaty.
II is possible to state that while
the treaty will be regarded as one
document for all of the central pow
ers, the plan now Is to have 1t In four
sections.
The first will be for the Germans;
the second section, which will be
ready a few days after the nrst is
completed, will be for Austria; then
will come Bulgaria ana Turkey. IL
was understood here today that Pre-
mier Lloyd Georges Forthcoming
speech in the house OF commons at
London will probably be full state
ment of the conference work so far.

Germany, by the terms of the
treaty, will be called upon to pay up
wards Of l00,00o,000,00 900 gold marks.
which, at the pre-war rate OF ex-
change, would be equivalent to $?s.-
$40. 100000.
or this sum there must be paid
within two years an amount equal to
$4,764,00O, 900, and during the next
thirty years twice that sum must be
turned over to the allies. A commits
sion will determine when and how
the remaining $9,52S, 100000 of the
reparations fund must be paid.
Agreed a. to Frontiers.
There seems to be an agreement on
the vexing problem of the Franco
German frontier. 1t is said the Ger
mans will be compelled to withdraw
all troops from a zone twenty-nv
miles wide on the right bank OF the
Rhine, while the allies will hold the
left bank of that river until the nrst
installment of the indemnity Is paid.
While the work OF fixing the
amount of money to be paid by Ger
many to the allied and associated
powers has been completed, there re-
mains a further task of apportion-
ing the indemnity funds among the
allied nations. 1t is indicated France
and Great Britain will receive ma
jor portion, 1t being estimated that
IS per cent. of the total will go to
them. Out of the remainder the
smaller powers will be given their
shares, and that there will be some
dissatisfaction on their parts Is ex-
pected.

KNOTTY PHASES REMAIN
OF PREPARATION PROBLEM
CLAIMS OF SMALL NATIONS
YET TO BE HEARD.
Sufferings Under German In
vasion and Devastation
Must Be Settled. =.

Paris, April 15.-(A.P)-The prob
lem of reparations and settlements
still has troublous times before 1t In
connection with the question OF the
distribution of the indemnity to bt
paid by Germany. Smaller powers
which suffered under German in
vasion and devastation are still to bt
heard relative to their shares of re-
paration fund, particularly Belgium
the claims of which are entitled te
first consideration under various pre-
conference pledges. .
The tentative scheme Of distribu-
ton which Great Britain and France
have advanced ar portions between 81
and 80 per cent, probably 90, or the
total sum realized to three big pow
ers, leaving perhaps Is per cent. to
satisfy the demands of Belgium,
Italy, Serbia, Rumania, Russia and
others. This Is a smaller proportion
than the secondary powers expected
and they are almost sure to be dis
satisfied with 1t. 1t has been sug-
gested among the experts on the re-
parations commission that Rumania,
Serbia and other nations have re-
ceived reparations through the ac-
QUESTION Of territory, but this rea-
soning will scarcely appeal to Bel
gium.
A share Of the reparations fund
will, according to the present under
standing, be assigned to Russia for
damage to invaded Russian terri
tories, but probably will be turned
over to Great Britain and France to
apply on advances made to the old
Russian government during the war.
Although the contributions payable
by Germany are characterized as re-
parations, a very considerable part Of
the first $4,000, 100000 will not be
available for reparation purposes,
since it has been assigned to the pay
ment of the expenses of the armies
of occupation and such food supplies
as must be furnished Germany. Since
the occupation of the left bank Of the
Rhine will continue during the en-
tire two years covered by this first
the expenses, particularly
of the French occupational army. will
eat deeply into the s5,000.000,000.

ANTS WILL ATTACK ACT

Nashville, April 15-(Special.)-
Anti suffragists will attack the suf-
frage act in the courts. it is believed.
The antis contend that under the
statutes of the state all candidates
in any election must be placed on one
ballot. In the case of a presidential
or municipal election being held on
the same day as a gubernatorial or
senatorial election, there would be
no way of discriminating between the
ballots of the men and the women,
and the women would have the same
form of ballot, and ie is now too late
for an amendment to that measure
at this session. BY reason of the
violation of the statutes on elections
1t is held that it will not be necessary
for any courts to decide as to its con-
stitutionality.
This defect was no: openly brought
TO light until today when the matter
was brought to the attention of Gov.
ROBBERS who has already signified his
intention of signing the measure. He
had not signed it at 1880 o'clock to-
day.

WIDE UNREST IN INDIA
Home Rule Element In Bombay Re-
snonsihie


London, April 15.-Widespread dis
turbances in India were referred to in
parliament last night as being the out
come of what was described as the
passive resistance" movement against
the recent Indian legislation known as
the Rowlatt act, intended to combat Sc
ditious conspiracy.
The movement originated with the
home rule element in Bombay and has
taken shape in attacks on officials and
Europeans and on property. The In
dian Office tonight issued a long state
ment describing the general situation.
1t was shown there have been dis
turbances recently at Lahore and
few casualties at Amritcar. thirty-t three
miles eastward, where three bank man
ayers were burned to death in the
town hall. two banks destroyed. the
telegraph office wrecked and three Eu
ropeans killed. At Ahmedabad a mob
attacked and burned the telegraph Of
fice and two government buildings.
Here also there were a few casualties.
There have been disorders in which
some persons have been wounded at
Bombay, but the statement says in
most of those places military forces are
now maintaining order.
