Marshal Foch at Coblenz
Praises Americans on His Prob
ahIy last Visit

COBLENZ, June 27 (By The Associ-
ated Press) s).-Marshal Foch arrived
here Wednesday for what may be his
last visit to the Coblenz bridgehead
during its occupation by American
troops. He was accompanied by his
aids and several members Of his staff.
He called upon Lieutenant General
Hunter Liggett at his headquarters.
Marshal Foch expressed to General
Liggett his admiration for the Ameri-

sign the peace treaty Is in line with
the Instructions sent the delegation
several weeks ago by the Chinese gov
ernment. These instructions were to
refuse to sign the treaty unless some
reservation is permitted as to Japan 3
sovereignty over the Shantung pepin-
sula,. acquired by Germany from China
under the treaty of 1897.
These instructions, it was learned to-
day, have never been changed, and ac-
cordingly the announcement of the
Chinese delegation was not surprising
to the officials here. Until recently,
sible that China might sign the treaty
in view of private assurances said to
have been given her representatives
that Japan's tenure of Shantung would
not be long. China, it also had been
believed, probably would assent to the
treaty and leave the Shantung question
to be worked out by the league of ma
tions.
The Chinese decision was believed
here to be based on the following:
First, that the delegation was unable
to obtain definitely expressed assur-
ances that Japan would give up the
Shantung province within short speci-
fed time, and that the Japanese tenure
would not be permitted to run for the
remainder Of the ninety-nine year
period under which Germany held the
territory; and
Second, that definite assurances were
control of the railroad from Using Tao
to Tsin Aufu, including all facilities
and mining rights and privileges of ex
ploitation; of the Using Tao-Shanghai-
Chefoo cables. and of facilities at the
port of KiaoChau.
Failure of China to sign the treaty,
officials explained, probably will ex-
clude her from the league of nations,
including certain rights Of redress un-
der that covenant, as we'll as work to

WASHINGTON, June 27.-There will
be no general lifting of the ban on
passports for pleasure travel in Europe
when peace is signed, Acting Secretary
of State Polk declared to-day. Until
all the American troops are moved out
of Europe and the numerous civilian
workers required in France by reason
of the presence of American troops
have been given passage home, only
applications of persons whose business
necessitates their going to Europe will
be favorably considered. :
"The War Department requires 1900
first class passages by the first of No
vember for the civilians who are now
in Great Britain and France" Mr.. Polk
said. Until this movement is com
pleted, passport restrictions will be
continued"
Great Britain, France and the North
ern neutrals have asked the United
States to hold travel to those countries
to the minimum because of inadequate
transportation facilities and scarcity
of food.

Manifesto Is Issued Pro.
posing Establishment of
Self Government Within
the Britt s h Empire
'sBetter Than a Republic''
Would Have Full Control
of Internal Government
and League Vote, Is Said

LONDON, June 27.-Establishment
Of self-government in Ireland within
the British Empire is proposed in a
manifesto issued to-day by the "Ifish
Dominion League" and signed by Sir
Horace Plunkett and other Irishmen.
The proposal, it is claimed, is a great
advance over any previous proposed So
luton Of the Irish question, except that
the British connection is maintained.
Under this plan Ireland would have
virtually the same amount of home rule
as if she were an independent republic.
The manifesto points out the disad-
vantages to which Irish products
would be exposed if Ireland were a
republic severed from the British En-
pire. Mention is made of possible hos
tile tariffs and it is said that such a
position might lose for Ireland her
share in any imperial preference which
might be establis he'd.
Urged to State Desires
1rishmen are urged in the manifesto
to unite and to let the British Parlia-
ment and people know what they de-
sire. The manifesto then outlines what
the political status of Ireland would
be under the new scheme.
Ireland, it is declared, would not be
represented at Westminster, but

nations and of the imperial conference
council or parliament which may be
established. Ireland would have COM
plete control Of her internal govern
ment. The naval and military defence
would remain as at present, but no
authority but the Irish Parliament
would have the power to impose COM
pulsory service on Irishmen, although
Ireland would agree to make contrihu-
tions to the naval, military and diplo-
matte services.
Minority Protection Claimed
In referring to Ulster the manifesto
says that with Ireland under the
status of dominion, the rights of
minorities would be constitutionally
recognized in many ways. The
Ulsterites are asked 20 state what
special safeguards they demand, the
manifesto adding:
"But if our appeal meet with no re-
sponse, the Irish Dominion League
will be prepared to show that the
Ulster difficulty can be met in the
Irish constitution as analogous diff
the empire"
In addition to Sir Thomas Horace
Plunkett the signers of the manifesto
include Unionist candidates, members
Of the old Irish party, leading men,
bcrs of the Irish convention of 1917,
forty-five Irish peers and baronets,
privy councillors, bank and railway
directors and lawyers.

on international intercourse and many
other international results which can be
summed up as "a colossal business,
such as the world never dreamed of
before"
The length Of the peace conference
is regarded in Presidential quarters as
beneficial, on. the whole, as the long
discussion brought about fuller un-
derstanding among the nations. There
is special pride in the fact that the
views of the American experts usually
prevailed, probably because the United
in the difficult questions settled. 1t is
also held in Presidential quarters that
sinister influences played comparative
ly little or no part in the results Of
the conference.
Concerning the mandate of the
United States in Turkey, the President
is known to hold that he had no right
to make any promises and that the
most he could do was to present the
idea that they think favorably Of Ar
menia, owing to the great interest al
ways shown toward that country, and
probably also concerning Constanti-
nople.
One Of the main reasons, according
to Presidential quarters, for the Ameri-
can mandate in Constantinople is that
it would keep Constantinople out of
European politics and be a worthy in
ternational effort, similar to construct
ing the Panama Canal, by which the
Black Sea would be kept open for the
worlds commerce.
Concerning Mexico and Costa Rica
not being in the league of nations, the
feeling in Presidential quarters is that
the situation is of their own making,
and that it is necessary for those gov
errments to "fnd themselves" Rela
tive to the Presidents fourteen points,
the view is taken that the treaty ad
heres to the points more closely than
had been expected, owing to the diff
culties and complications which arose
during the course of the negotiations.
On the whole, Presidential quarters
regard the signing of the treaty as the
end of long job they are glad to see
finished, and President Wilson, it was
said, starts back relying with conf
dence on approval of the work by the
people when misapprehensions have
been cleared away and they have been
made fully aware what the conference
has accomplished

among subjects discussed by President
Poincare at the dinner in tho Sale des
Fetes which he and Nine, Poincare
gave to President and Mrs. Wilson and
delegates to the peace conference al
the Presidential palace here last night
President Poincar6 in giving a toast
to President Wilson asked that he be
allowed, at the moment when his guest
was preparing to leave Europe, ia
render homage once more to the high
spirit of justice in which President
Wilson had prepared, with other rep
resentatives of the Allied and asso.
clated powers, "this great, laborious
peace in which the justice saved by
our victory is going to definitely in,
scribe its will in favor of reparation.'
Treaty Must Be Applied
After paying tribute to American
participation in the war; reviewing the
work of the peace conference and out.
President Poncare said:
"The treaties, once signed, must be
wholly applied and persistence on oul
account will be no less indispensable ia
their execution. The delegates of the
victorious countries have not met dur
ing these long months and have not
cnnvcked to Versailles the delegates
of conquered Germany in order to re.
tain in their hands nothing but sim.
pie piece of paper.
I'VE want, all of US, as you do, Mr.
President, that this peace be not vain
words; that it be not fugitive hope
JOY appearing for one evening in
bloodstained Europe. We want, as you
do, that the society of nations shall
become beneticent reality We want
as you do, that all the clauses to which
our enemies are going to subscribe be
loyalty observed
Cites German Violation
"The disposition shown by violations
in advance of a treaty that or is
going to undertake to respect. m-..es
it our duty to watch carefully to see
that criminal bands do not rekirdle
sooner or later the confagration which
we have smothered.
German ships sunk by their crews
French flags burned and demonstra-
tions before the new Polish frontie,
are not signs of repentance.
I'VE must remain together firmly
tory that we obtained together"
President Poincare concluded by
raising his glass and proposing, in
honor of President and Mrs. Wilson, a
toast to the immortality of Franco
American friendships and the indie
structible union of the Allied and as
sociated powers.

to him a suggestion that he travel by
aeroplane. but he decided against this.
He leaves from Grand Central Termi-
nal at 1 p. m.
Harry j. Boland, secretary to de

of the Irish people, a cordial welcome
to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
upon his return after many years to
the country of his birth, and the Speak
err is hereby requested to invite Mr..

to appoint committee of seven men,
bers to escort him to the House."

the bench and bar of Boston, visited
the Waldorf last night to make ar
rnngcments for the trip.
MOlSc tcIIettc, mayor OF M0nChcS

slur on the Irish.
