GERMAN ENJOYS
ARE AUTHORIZED
To SIGN At ONCE
Possible for Them to Con-
clude Pact Without
Leaving Versailles.

Berlin, May S.-There is a possibility
OF the Germans signing the treaty
without leaving Versailles. according
TO the Neueste Nachrichten.
The newspaper said the German
delegates have received precise in
structions regarding their course of
action. They have in their hands the
minimum program which they must
obtain as well as the maximum con-
cession which will be allowed.
If it is impossible for them to sign
a treaty meeting these conditions they
will return to Berlin to await further
instructions from the government.
Press Very Critical.
The press. commenting on an ad-
vance summary of the peace terms
today. declared several of the points
could not be accepted.
The Tageblatt. for instance. said that
100000 soldiers is not sufficient to main
tain internal order. and added:
I'VE decline TO have an eternal state
of anarchy"
The newspapers pronounced the in
demnity excessive and denounced dis,
position Of Danzig and the Saar VAL
ley.
Popular Interest Intense.
Every scrap Of news from Paris is
eagerly devoured by huge crowds be-
siegins the newspaper Offices. The
papers venture few prophesies. but
seem unanimous in the opinion that if
the Danzig and saar Valley problem
are settled as predicted in recent Pari,
dispatches Germany will not sign the
peace.

Announcement of the arrival of two

The proposal that the United states
should Join Great Britain in a guar

should the latter be again attacked
from the East has become extremely
popular among the Senators.
1t is probable that il a vote were
taken on the proposal very few Sena-
tors would be against 1t.
The strongest advocates OF the plan
are Republican Senators. The reason
for this is that they see in the pro-
posal a sort OF acknowledgment that
the league of nations is not going to
be effective.
They are unable to understand why.
il the league will do all that its pro-
ponents claim for it. there is any
necessity OF setting up another guar

Peculiar situation.
The unofficial submission OF the
proposal has thus brought about an
extremely peculiar situation in the
Senate. Opponents of the league OF
nations. with the exception OF Sen.

dorsement to the suggestion that
the United States should join the
defensive alliance.
Concealed behind their advocacy
of the plan. however. is the idea
that the proposed alliance would
act as an Offset to the league. Some

II has not been made plain yet
whether the Austrian and Hungarian

delegates OF these nations will be sub

the Germans. as will be those Of Hun

No arrangements have yet been
made for reception OF the Bulgarian

Nevertheless United States officials

"'NiII Never SIgn.-

Versailles.
The same men attached to the
American commission who a few
Germans igning was about fifty

the enemy will never accept the
terms. Men VINO were recently con-
fident the Germans would sign. now
say the chances are about even.
The reason for the increased pessin-
ism is believed to be the cumuIating
effect Of seeing all parts OF the treaty
together. whereas earlier opinions
wre based on particular sections OF
which various men had personal
knowledge.
German Reply s1nsoIent.s
The impression created in French
circles by Brockdorff- -Rantzau's speech
can be summed up 1 the one word.
''insolent.'
Some officials expressed the belief
he seized the occasion as the first and
last opportunity to address allied dele
gates and therefore profited TO the
fullest extent.
'rockdorfI- -Rantzau's impudent
speech was intended more for history
and home consumption than for the

RUSSIANS UNITE

The Department of State announced
yesterday that the ArchangeI prOvi-
sioral government had recognized the
supreme authority Of the omsk gov
ernment as the provisional national
government OF all Russia.
This is the first light that has come
out of Russia TO show on what the
allies are depending for the restora-
ton Of peace in that country. The
government at ArchangeI is acting
with the advice. in a general way a;
least OF the allied military forces
there. including those OF the United
States. II is also noted that the peace
treaty reserves discussion Of the
claims which the new Russia will have
against the German government.
Certain Solution Seen.
1t is believed here that the junction
OF the Archangel district with the
omsk government, both Of which are
recognized practically by the allies
and associated powers. is the Ger am
solution OF all the troubles OF Russia.
The former has beaten the Bolshe-
vik advance and the latter is going IN
to exterminste the Bolsheviks both In
Siberia and in the Archangel section.
These two governments have con-
siderable armies. which II Is said are
to be let loose as soon as possible

the Bolsheviki everywhere IN Russia
