PADEREWSKI WINS
MOVES FOR POLAND
Old National Committee in
Paris Quits, Leaving Pre-
mier Real Leader.
Special Cable Despafch TO THE suS.

PARIS. April II. - Premier Paderew-
skis hands have been greatly strength
ened in pushing his claim for Danzig as
q Polish port. or at least 30 interna-
uonaliEed that Poland shall gain. for the
present. an outlet to the Baltic and for
a future plebiscite. by two developments
Of the last twenty four hours. The
greatest elation is felt in Polish circles
here to-day, and will be shared by Poles
In America. because Of the news that the
old Polish national committee Of Paris
has shut UP shop and the first OF Gen.
HaIer's army. which is practically a
Polish army recruited in America, il now
actually on the way across Germany.
The dissolution OF the national COM
mittee Is an open acknowledgment that
Paderewsh is the real leader of the
new Poland. His Government. built on
American lines, represents the desires
Of the Pofish people az expressed through
its Diet The abdication Of the commit
tee, often accused of reactionary ten
denotes, leaves the decks clear for the
election Of Paderewski as President OF
the Polish republic This step facilitates
Paderewski's work OF convincing the
Allies that Danzig should be a Polish
port and allays fears that may have
been held concerning Polish imperialism.
Every precaution has been taken to
avoid trouble during the passage Of Hal
ler's men through Germany. A large
French military mission accompanies
Haller. and win act in an advisory ca
pacity; also American officers. One
French ofiicer win accompany each train
As a representative OF the armistice COM
mission.
The arrival Of this force in Poland
will greatly strengthen the Paderewski
Government and also make Poland a
stronger bulwark against tho spread OF
Bolshevism. 1t also will have an impor-
tant bearing on the attitude OF the Ger
man delegates to the Peace Conference
In the discussions of the eastern frontier
1t was reported to-day that a change
In the German military attitude on the
east front already was perceptible, and
that the knowledge that 10000. well
armed and experieaced troops would
soon arrive had done much to take the
wind out OF the sails OF the clustering
Germans. who now realize that they can
bully the Poles. The moral effect OF the
arrival Of these troops viii be great, II
Is predicted.

Permanent Body May Be
Formed to Act as Clearing
House to Aid Peace.

PARIS, April 17.-"The seventh ana
eighth meetings of the international
Convention on Aerial Navigation, which
body also is the Aeronautical Commits
sion OF the Peace Conference, were held
April Is and 49," says an official re-
port issued to-day. Admiral Knapp and
Major-Gen. Mason NJ. Patrick repre-
scented the United States. The report
continues:
THE commission had before Il full
reports from commercial. legal, finan-
cial and technical sub-committees. There
were forty-one articles in the draft con-
vention and six annexes.
"On the question OF aircraft, the
analogy OF merchant shipping has been
followed to a certain extent, the main
principle being that the nationality
should be governed by the nationality
of the owner OF the aircraft. The con-
vention has decided as n matter OF
principle that certificates OF competence
in the case OF the crew are to be rec
ognized as universally necessary in in
ternational flying.
The right of flying over n State
from frontier to frontier is recognized.
subject to the safeguard that the State
may compel a landing Cor the interest
OF national security. or. IN other words.
where reasonable suspicion exists that
the flight Is not q bonande. innocent
flight. There also are provisions for the
carriage OF various papers of Identity
on the aircraft and prohibition against
the carriage of dangerous articles.
THE final provisions include an arbi-
tration clause for the settlement OF
disputes and clause which definitely
places the convention on a peace basis
as not affecting the rights and duties
of belligerents or neutrals In time OF
war. Aircraft are then replaced In
class apart and may not fly outside their
own countries except by the special au-
thorization OF the State visited, in which
case their treatment shall be in accord
ance. with the usual rules prevailing In
the case OF a ship OF war.
THE convention contemplates the
formation of a permanent international
commission on aerial navigation. which
will keep in close touch with all new
evelopments and act as a clearing house
| Tor all information on questions Of air
navigation between the respective
| States.
THE commission directed that a COM
plete draft dealing with the various
amendments proposed shall be prepared

dence and were issuing newspapers and
