Plans for Development Presented at
Advertising Conference at Buffalo.

Buffalo, N. Y, March 31.-The de-
velopment of the foreign trade Of the
United States to keep pace with the
country's rapidly expanding factory
production was one, of the principal
topics discussed at the business and
reconstruction convention of the adj

was brought before the advertising
clubs at the opening banquet by Bur-
well S. Cutler, chief Of bureau United
States department of commerce, and
DR.. w. e. Aughinbaugh, chairman de-
partment of foreign trade of the Uni
versity Of New York. The establish

ASKS OLD BOUNDARY
France Demands Foe Restore
1914 Frontier.
Australian Peace Delegates Fear
Monroe creed-Austrla Makes Ad-
vanees to Switzerland.

Paris, March 31.-In laying her
claims before the council Of four yes
terday France asked, first of all, that
her boundaries, as fixed by the treaty
OF Paris. May 30, 1914, be restored to
her, with the Saar basin. In the
Rhine province on the left bank of the
Rhine, it was stipulated, the Germans
should not be permitted to establish
notifications, occupy the territory with
armed forces or control the railways.
On the Alsace-Lorraine line it was de-
manded that the Rhine should be the
natural frontier of France.
The Australian peace delegates have
pointed out that the proposed amend
ment to the league of nations cove
nant regarding the Monroe doctrine,
providing for recognition Of the bind
Ing force Of the policies heretofore
applied, would validate, and confirm
Japanese claims to preponderance in
China and the Orient.
Fear is expressed in some quarters
that the opposition which has deyel-
oped on this account may jeopardize
the amendment. Experts are trying
to find a formula that will overcome
this objection, and meanwhile the
amendment has been withheld from in
sertion in the covenant.
According to reports received by the
peace conference, delegates from Ger
man Austria have made advances to
the Swiss government proposing the
annexation to Switzerland not only
OF Vorarlberg provice on her eastern
frontier, but all of German Austria,
including Vienna.
Switzerland, the reports say, refused
to entertain any such idea, as it would
destroy, the character of the federation.
The Swiss government expressed a
willingness to adhere only to the an
nexation Of Lichtenstein, the popula-
ton of which has already taken steps
In this direction.
