DELIBERATIONS OF SUPREME
 COUNCIL NOT GIVEN OUT

Paris, March 24.--(By The A. P.) The results of the deliberations of the su- preme council today are not likely to be stated in the official communigues, and probably will take form in their effect on the conference work particu- larly with respect to reparations, from tiers and the league of nations
 The advocates of the league of na- tions maintain that it is in no way re- tarding the progress of the peace trea- ty, as the league meetings are held at night and are nearing a conclusion, whereas the obstacles to the treaty are on questions of principle, on which the premiers thus far have been unable to secure an agreement.
 The war council today again dwelt with Poland, which question is close to settlement. 1t is understood that the recommendations of the Cambon committee for a Polish corridor across East Prussia to the Baltic will prevail despite the objections raised by Pre- mier Lloyd George. The Polish divis- ions at present. in France will proba- bly proceed to the Baltic anfI may land at Koenigsberg, instead of Danzig, in order to avoid a clash with the Ger mans over DanZig.
 The league of nations commission US SCSSlpuS GI o-UU 0 CLOCK to- night, President Wilson presiding. The commission is expected to sit unti midnight. It was not believed that the large number of amendments would be completed and the revision of the covenant concluded without another meeting.
