URGES HIGH COURT

Gregory Would AUoid Ger
man Control in Freed States.


VIENNA. May 10 (delayed) The
Peace Conference. during the stay of the
Austrian delegation at st. Germain,
should provide for a commercial high
court to have charge of commercial
affairs In the republics formed from tho
old Hapsburs empire. and the court
should have authority for q long period
OF years, Capt. Thomas Gregory Of
California, the representative here OF
the 1nterallied Food Commission. said
II q statement to-day.
'otherwise." he added "the political
differences Of the various nationalities
will cause n continuance OF the present
commercial ohaoa with the result that
the superior German trade Organization
will come in and eventually will
dominate the country politically as 1t
did formerly. Also there Is likely to be
new wars under present conditions.
"Suoh a high court should have final
authority IN regulating trade and II Is
also important that there be controller
in charge OF the railroads and water
ways.
I'm some measure this Is what Is
being attempted now by the Americans
here. For the good of all concerned we
are struggling daily with problems in
volvlrg exchange. money rates and trade
exchanges, such a. coal for manufactured
products, shoes for sugar. and SO on.
We are doing this because we have the
authority and can DO what the various
countries with their conflicting frontiers
and interests never will be able to do
alone. They cannot separate them
selves each from the other commercially.
no matter what they DO politically. De-
cause each has something the others
want. BY their own accord they never
can reach an arrangement, 90 1t ought
