Ireland is not the only country that
is seeking to take advantage Of the
-'self-determination' principle enunci-
ated by President Wilson and accepted
by the belligerent nations. Porto Rico
strongly urges that it be made state
or given independence, and the Phil
ippines are urging that they be permit
ted to paddle their own canoe. Presi-
dent Wilson's record leads to the be-
lief that he will not offer any serious
opposition to the desires of the Fill
pinos. Korea, also, has declared its
independence from Japan, and the dec
laration, which says it represents the
voice. of 100000 people, asserts they
will fight to the last drop of blood in
the great cause of liberty. The leader
OF the Koreans is said to have come to
the United States to conduct a press
campaign with the immediate object Of
obtaining hearing at the Paris peace
conference.

should not be passed upon by the
boundaries commission, but deter
mined by the council itself, because of
their vast importance and difficulties.
These include the frontier disputes
between Italy and Jugo-Slovakia.
The commission on waterways,
ports and railways recommended that
the Rhine and the Kiel canal be opened
to free navigation by all nations, the
former to be controlled by an interna-
tional commission and the latter to
remain under German ownership and
operation.
. Poland probably will be granted the
desired outlet to the Baltic sea, and
1t is likely she will be given Danzig
and the entire Vistula valley. This
would cut off east Prussia and it is
believed that state will be set up as
a separate republic, in accordance
with the wishes of large part of it's
population. The violent opposition
which these measures may arouse in
Germany probably will render adj
visable the sending to Poland of Cen
eral Haller's two divisions of Poles
now In France.
Tint the Germans must have food
quickly If the flood Of bolshevik and
Spartaean anarchy is to be stayed is
the fiat statement of many who should
know, including Secretary Lansing. In
this policy there is no pity for the
Huns; it is merely a matter of self
protection for the rest of Europe if
not for the world. Investigators for
the allies do not agree with the state
ments that there is plenty Of food in
most of Germany, and the great mr..
jority of authorities are convinced
that the anarchistic movement in cen
tra1 Europe is feeding on hunger and
can be checked by provisions. The.
Ebert government virtually threatened
to lie down and let the Spartacans
have their own way If the allies did
not consent to feed Germany. Whether
or. not the threat was a bluff. it has
worked. With this was involved the
matter of the surrender of German
merchant shipping, and the Huns in
duced the allies to agree to revictual
Germany until the next harvest If the
ships were given up. Letting a de-
feated. nation dictate thus to its con-
querors was said by some to be a seri-
Gus blunder, but its worst effect prob
ably will be to encourage the Germans
to be stubborn on other questions
where the allies cannot afford to yield.
Three hundred thousand tons of Ger
man shipping now in German ports
has been allocated to the United
States. In addition about 100000 tons
Of German shipping interned in Chill
can waters was allocated to America,
but this may not be accepted if the
shipping board finds the necessary re-
pairs would not be justified If the
vessels are to be used by us for a
short period.

bolshevism on all peoples. Dispatches
from Moscow say the soviet govern
ment has appointed a Swiss named
Moor to be international commissar"
with unlimited financial and political
powers, with view to promoting a
worldwide communist revolution. In
the Archangel region the bolshevists
continue their attacks on the allied
forces and, though suffering severe
losses, have compelled them to move
northward from Vistavka. Informa-
ton from the part of Russia controlled
by the bolsheviki is that though their
army is increasing and is well drilled
and well fed, the rest of the people
are starving to death. Production Of
all kinds has ceased and transporta-
ton is so utterly demoralized that what
grain they have cannot be distributed.
In a word, the soviet government has
demonstrated it's absolute incapacity
and lack of administrative ability, ex-
cept in the matter of raising a con-
script army. In this Trotzky is large
ly following the old system of the en-
pire.

DIPLOMACY OF THE
JAPANESE ADMIRED
Support of America in Fight

New York Tribune, Incl

PARIS, April 1S.-The Tribune cor
respondent learns that most members
of the league Of nations commission
wero not opposed to the japanese
amendment 10 the covenant providing
equal treatment Of foreigners in all
countries 1t was the opposition of tho
American representatives which finally
succeeded In preventing the adoption
Of the amendment. although even the
American representatives regarded it
as harmless.
One great factor in influencing the
decision against the Japanese was the
fear that Premier William Hughes, Of
Australia, characterized as the wild
man" OF the conference, would put up
a spectacular fight when the covenant
is discussed at plenary session OF the
conference, thus stirring up anti-Japan-
ese feeling in America and the British
doninlons and make more difficult the
adoption OF. the league Of nations.
Despite the graceful manner in which
the Japanese accepted the decision
against them. 1T is believed possible
they will again bring up their amend
meut In the, plenary session of the con-
ference. where, unless a cloturc rule is
strictly enforced. It is likely to precipt-
tate a long debate led by Mr.. Hughes.
There is considerable favorable COM
ment today on the admirable diplomacy
Of the Japanese delegation. and the skill
with which 1t Is presenting its case. In
the last two meetings OF the league OF
nations commission the Japanese dele
CATION has consistently supported the
position on many. points. especially on
the Monroe doctrine amendment.
The fact that the Japanese have made
no effort to bring up the Shantung case
in the council Of four. the fact that
they have disclaimcd desire to par
ticlpate in European settlements. to-
g2ther with their support of the Ameri-
cans on the Monroe doctrine, has led
10 the belief that the Japanese arc SIM
ply waiting for the moment when they
can say to the conference: I'VE have
scrupulously permitted European ma
tions eto settle their won affairs. We
upheld America in her desire TO safez
guard her rights in the western hemis-
phcre Now. as the dominating power
In the Far East, We ask the same privi-

Premier Clemenceau Tells
Radicals frances Claims
Are Recognized.

PARIS. April 13. tBy the Associated
press,)-Although no authoritative an
nouncement has been made Of the terms
OF the settlements Of the Saar valley
question BY the council Of four. some or
the French newspapers claim that
France is to have the right OF opera
ton Of the mines in perpetuity.
Other newspapers. however. say this
is not exact and that France is to have
the right Of operation of the coal mines
for term OF years.
According 10 this second theory event
ual extension of French control Of the
mines would depend on the result OF
plebiscite which. according to the sup
oosed terms Of settlement would be held
in ten or fifteen years.
The Interpretation Of the settlement
by some of the American delegates is
that France will get the coal mines in
perpetuitY.
PARIS, April 13.-Premicr Clemen-
ceau. told a deputation OF the Radical
Socialist group which called upon him
to-day that the question OF reparation
nv Germany had been settled among
the allies and few hours previously on
basis that would satisfy the desire OF
the deputation as these had been pre-
sented 70 him. and htat the same could
be said for the negotiations concerning
the Saar valley.
The deputation was headed by Deputy
Rcns Renoult. who set forth TO the pre-
micr that the group considered it OF
great Importance that the league OF na-
,ions should be organized. theoretically
and practically. in such a way as TO pre-
vent in future any attempt against the
security OF the world and the tnd"pend-
cnce OF it's peoples. The group. said Its
Spokesman. demanded no less hopefully
the granting Of immediate material
guarantees that France should be pro-
t1cted as far AS possible from any fresh
aggression. To reach this end the group
considered two things necessary-a
strongly organized frontier and the dis
armament Of Germany. the permanency
Of which should be secured by continu-
ing control
Concerning reparations, the minimum
requirements formulated by the group
comprised leasing the coal mines Of the
saar valley at. the disposal OF France
while 1t contended that complete repara-
ton must be obtained for all damage
to persons and property. and provision
made for the payment from enemy
funds Of all war pensions.
