Articles Made Public

WASHINGTON, April 28.-Although
the peace conference in plenary session
to day failed to take up the question
of responsibility for the war, officials
here were unanimous tonight in their
belief that the peace treaty, as de-
livcred to the German plcnipotentiares
will call for the trial of William Ho-
henzollern, former Emperor of Ger
many, before a court Of the associated
powers.
Trial of the former Emperor for
"a supreme offence against interna-
tional morality and the sanctity Of
treaties,' the State Department an
nounced to-day, had been included in
the recommendations of the peace con-
ference commission on responsibility
These recommendations are embodied
in four articles which We're made pub.
lie by the State Department without
comment and which the commission
proposes to insert in the final treaty.
The articles specify that the former
Emperor is not to be tried "for an
offence against criminal law" and that
the International court shall be COM
posed Of FIVE Judges, one to be appeint-
ed tx each OF the five great powers,
Great RritaiN, United States, Japan,
italy and France, Il Is further pre-
Vlded that the asseeIased governments
shail seuuest iiellaNa to deliver Np
the rormer EmperoN
Won Tiepi,s May he Tried
Not alone, though, viii the head of
the House OF lINhenzollern be tried.
The commissions reeomm mendations
provide that all persons accused Of
acts in violation of the international
rules of warfare shall be brought be-
fore international tribunals, and if
found guilty shall be given the pen
alties of international law
Some officials to-day said this pro-
vision would bring before the associ-
ated governments other members of
the House of HoIenzollern and such
other leaders of extreme German mill,
tarish and cruelty as Admiral Won
Tirpitz, who conceived and advocated
the submarine campaign.
American Viewpoint Met
Thus the peace conference commits
sion on responsibility for the war has
solved its most wcighty problem The
State Departments announcement of
the solution was received here gener-
ally with surprise, because it was
known that Secretary Lansing, chair
man of the commission. had steadfastly
opposed any attempt to bring the for
mcr Kaiser before an international
tribunal.
Mr.. Lansing contended there was no
law by which such an offender could
be reached by the conference. and that
it would he contrary to the Constitution
of the United States for the Ameri-
lean delegates to participate in the exc
cution of a sort OF international ex
post facto law. AT that time, however,
1T was proposed to charge criminal and
military offences. and it was suggested
to-day that the dec sion to base the in
dictmcnt upon violation of i5lterna-
tional morality and the sanctity of

Article XXVI permits the amend
ment o. the covenant by majority
OF the states composing the assem-
bly,. instead of three-fourths of the
states, though it does not change the
requirement in that matter with re-
gard to the vote in the council.
The second paragraph of Article
HNNI also is new, and was added a.
the request of the Brazilian delega-
tion, in order TO avoid certain con
stitutional difficulties. II permits
any member of the league to dissent
from an amendment, the effect of
such dissent being withdrawal from

treaty. who become members. and the
names of the states invited to accede
to the covenant. These are all the
changes, believe, which are of mo-
ment
Mr.. President, take the oppor-
tunity to move the following reso-
lutions IN order TO carry GU. the pro-
visions OF the covenant. You will
notice that the covenant provides
that the first secretary general shall
be chosen by this conference. It also
provides that the first choice Of the
four member states who are TO be
added to the five great powers on tn
council is left TO this conference.
81 move, therefore, that the first
secretary general Of the council shall
be the Honorable Sir James Eric
Drummond, and, second, that until
such time as the assembly shall have
selected the first four members of
the league to be represented on the
council in accordance with Article ~
OF the covenant representatives OF
Belgium, Brazil, Greece and Spain

the powers to be repr sented on the
council of the league of nations are

DISTRIBUTED
 FIPURE MILK

l. Snow, milk dealer and owner of a dairy on State street, appeared before the Health Board at its meet ing last night, charged with distrib- uting impure milk. Testimony against him was introduced by Health Officer Dr. Walter H. Brown and Milk and Dairy Inspector Harry Bartram.
 Several samples taken from his wagons were used as evidence. Tests proved that this milk was impure, and had not been pastuerized as Snow claimed it had Snow asserted that a mistake must have occurred in the tests. Regarding the dirt in his pro- duct, Snow said this was due to a part of his equipment breaking:
 He has been before the Board pre- vieusly on a similar charge. He was informed last night that another complaint against him will automat- ically revoke his license.

 Berlin Tuesday, Jan. 14-(By The Associated Press) - Berlin's long week of Bolshevism is ended. Rere and there, scattered desperadoes, mostly youths, still fire occasionally from some housetop and during the nights attempts are made by small bands of the followers of Dr. Karl Liebknecht to revive the reign of | terror. They are insignificant, how ever, compared with what has pass ed
 A few SpartacanS tried to recap ture the Charlottenburg police head quarters the night after they were taken by government troops. pr. Lisbkneehts slater was arrested today and sevepal hundred rebels are locked up awaiting trial which, in as much as martial law was not pro- claimed, must be left to the regular courts
 Losses inflicted on each side dur ing the past week are as yet estimat- ed only roughly, but it is believed that they will greatly exceed 200 dead and 1000 wounded. The overWhelm- ing majority of these are Bolshevists. The reinstatement and arming of the police gives the government a new force of trained men who know the criminal world and whose ab- l sence during the first days of the revolution gave the disorderly ele- ment free hand. Police records, including those of the Bertillon sys- tenn, were not destroyed, as was first reported. Detectives are already rounding up old acquaintanees and 1 the work of disarming Iawless ele- ments is proceeding.
 Property losses during the past | week of terror amount to tens of mill | lions of marks, in addition to the l damage to newspaper plants and l government buildings. Merchants l losses through footing are very high one youth being captured with sixty | thousand marks worth of jewels which he had stolen. In some streets near the police headquarters nearly every store was systematically loot l ed.
 Bolshevist treeps holding the sile- sian stations had so much butter that they used it te grease their guns and | boots.
 The center of the city has been quiet all day. Late this evening a few shots were heard in different parts of the town, being fired by snipers and leeters. Merchants having shops along Unter den Linden took down their shutters and business went or as usual
 The government has no intention of slackening it's efforts against the Spartacans, the Abend Zeitung, says 1t learns from best authority. Ener- getic measures are being taken agains the leaders of the movement. It is reported that documents found by loyal troops show that the sparatcar uprising was inspired from Moscow.
