Puzzling

The American peace commissioners in
Paris have been put in an embarrassing
position by Secretary Lansing's recent
protest to the Porte against continued
Turkish atrocities in Armenia. Secre-
tary Lansing has established an Ameri-
can High Commissioner in Constant-
uOple in the person Of Rear Admiral
Mark Bristol, formerly director of the
Navy Departments Bureau of Aviation.
Admiral Bristol served notice on the
Sultan that the murder of his Armenian
subjects must stop. The State Depart
'nent defends this action by saying that
it was simply renewal of representa-
tlons of the same character, made several
times, without success, to Enver and the
Young Turks.
The American protest is justified on
the ground of humanity But it has
greatly annoyed and ruffled the peace
makers ut Paris, who hold that they
alone are entitled to deal with enemy
nations with which peace has not yet
been concluded. Mr. Polk has been in
"SViNc sympathy Will tio peace con-
ference's grievance against Rumania,
because the latter has been dealing
directly and independently with Hun
gary. Premier Bratiano has been
sharply rebuked for going over the
head of the conference. Yet our State
Department has now installed diplo-
matte representative in Constantinople
and is doing, on a small and much less
lnoffensive scale, what Bratiano has been
doing at Budapest.
The United States has right to be
represented at the Turkish capital. It is
Tor us to say whether or not we wish
TO MAINTAIN diplomatic relations with
Turkey Such relations were only par
italy suspended during the European
war. There is no obstacle to their COM
plete resumption. We have never been
at war with the Turks Yet the Ameri-
can peace delegates were recently in
structed to accept the fiction that we
have been at war with Turkey and Bul-
g&Ha, IN order to participate in the
peace negotiations with those two
friendly states. Having committed our
selves at Paris to the proposition that
we are at war with Bulgaria and Tur-
key, it is disconcerting to the American
negotiators to find Washington suddenly
readopting the other theory and appoint
ing diplomatic agent to do business at
Constantinople wath the Porte.
The Paris press is scandalized by
Secretary Lansing's move, which, it
holds, belittles the conference Possibly
our government has thus chosen to indi-
cate that it will retire from the confer
ence negotiations with Turkey. Such
action would logically compel an aban-
donment of the American delegations

honorable man, animated by the highest
motives and bent exclusively on the veal
of the Rhineland population. Just the
same, the inclination was prevalent not
to treat his project seriously.
Now, however, after the German press
persisted for about two months in ignor-
ing the Rhenish republic as dead issue,
comes the announcement from a COM
petent source that all is not well, from
the German point of view, in the Rhine
land An article by the special corre-
spondent of the Berliner Tageblatt,
Leonhard Adelt, written from Coblenz,
contains interesting admissions. For in
stance, although the German newspapers
insisted that the people of Alsace and
Lorraine did not want to be detached
from Germany, Herr Adelt now SAYS
that "the natives of Alsace and Lorraine
display much more hatred toward the
ermans than even the French them
selves" But most important and en-
Tightening is what the correspondent re-
ports concerning Rhenish separatism. He
quotes no less a parsonage than Herr
Won Groote, Supreme President of the
Rhine Provinces Gan appointee of the
central government in Berlin). to the
effect that the Rhenish population has
had too much of Prussian officialdom and
declines to be ruled in the future by
men from the East" that is, Prussians.
attorney Loenartz, who says that the
French desire to weaken Prussia "coin-
cldes with the wish Of the autochthonous
Rhnelander to cut loose from Prussian
rule, whose good qualities he willingly
acknowledges, but whose spirit is not his
spirit" The threats of the Berlin gov
ernment to institute proceedings for
treason against leaders of the indepen-
dence movement, Herr Loenartz saws. re-
suited merely in turning a large num-
Der OF people over to the separatist side
who before did not favor secession. "You
cannot stifie movement of this order
with threats" The result of the Prus-
sian attitude toward the Rhenish aspira
e'Ni'' WIZ bC3 IICll LOGIdTCZ concludes.
that when the people of the Rhineland,
after many years of French occupation
and influence, "will have choice between
becoming again Must Prussia and es-
tabllshing their neutrality with Western
support, will decide for the second
course"
These are not the words of an ire
sponslbe fre-eater or foreign propa-
gandlst, and they are cited in an ARTICLE
which sets out to show that there is no
separatlsm in the Rhineland. They show
that even conservative, sedate elements
of the population, temperamentally averse
to violent changes, would shake off
Prussian domination. This confirms the
view OF those observers who hold that
the disintegration of the old Prussia
artlficlally united by series of con-
quests, is already in progress, the pro-
testatlons of the chauvinistic press Of
Berlin Notwithstanding.

Pre-War Claims
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: have read with care the testimony
of Mr.. Baruch, printed in your issue of
August II, in connection with my letter of
August 12, and notice that ne stated to the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee that
the property now in the possession Of the
Allcn Property Custodian could, by action
OF Congress, be used for the payment of
pre-war claims against the German govern
ment under the terms of the treaty of peace.
There is, however, a clause in the peace
treaty which seems to conflict with the in
terpretation placed thereon by Mr.. Baruch.
Part VIII relates to Preparation" and with
that the United States has concededly moth
ing to do. Part TX concerns financial ar
rangements, and Article 252 is alone per
tinent.
Part x, however, entitled Economic
Clauses" and particularly Chapter there
of, Sections III and ", purports to deter
NINE the disposition which is to be made of
the mutual debts and credits of the con-
tracing parties and their property, rights
and interests.
Article 297 (h) (2) provides in part as
follows
The proceeds of the property rights and
interests and the cash of German na-
lonals received 10y an Allied or associated
power shall be subject to disposal by such
power in accordance with its laws and rcyu
latlons and may be applied in payment ~

Although he never forgcts it for a
