Supreme War Council in Session
Considers New ArmiStiCe Demands

Paris, Feb. 7.-Maay important
matters were before the supreme war
council comprising the council OF tho
great powers and the military COM
lnanders on all fronts, when it met to-
hay to consider primarily the extern
sion of the armistice with Germany
(which expires on February II. AL
Though the final decisions went over
slntil tomorrow the session was IN
eresting from the number OF sub
hects demanding attention that were
presented by the naval and military
ehiefs.
Turkish Conditions Considered.
REPORTS were made by the military
high commands regarding demobtll-
katton and the relative forces of the
bowers to be maintained in the occu-
Boied regions. The Versailles military
bouncil also submitted report as TO
The military forces available for the
disturbed regions of Turkey.
Ready to Give Up Vessels.
The naval branch of the council
presented recommendations formu-
hated as the result of consultations
among the British, French, Italian
sand American naval commanders,
bearing mainly on the turning over of
8the German submarines, blockade re-
lstrlctions and the surrender of the
herman commercial fleet. This fleet,
lit is stated is ready to be turned
over, but the Allies thus far nave not
agreed upon the allotment of the
steamers among the various Allied
nations nor upon the compensation
for the use Of the vessels.
VIII Fly American Flag.
When an agreement is reached and
the United States receives it's share Of
tho ships they will be manned by tho
American navy and fly the stars and
stripes, the initials OF the relief coun-
Gil being added to the flag.
The commission on blockade also
presented a report faVoring the light

May Impose Harshcr Terms.
A tendency was manifested in some
military quarters to impose further
drastic terms upon Germany when
the armistice was extended, but no
decision was reached today as to what
m easures might be taken. After hear
ing the views of the military repre-
sentatlves the council of the great
powers decided to continue the dis
cussion tomorrow, when the decisions
will be made without the presence Of
these representatives. This last move
was regarded in some quarters as
significant OF the gradual change from
war conditions to those of normal
peace times.

After the session the following Of
fetal statement on the proceedings
was issued:
The president of the United States
of America, the prime minister and
