Premier Lloyd-George, according to

Instead Of the payment of twenty

The amount is kept a secret but it

Germans VIII Be GiUen OPP
pOrtunity To Discuss Peace
Terms Before Congress.

Paris, April 1.-THE status of the
American, Japanese and French
amendments to the covenant of the
League of Nations has been definitely
established so far as the League of
Nations commission is concerned
with the American amendment CON
corning the Monroe Doctrine the only
one to be given a place in the cove
nant by the commission.
The French and Japanese, however,
both made reservations which will
entitle them to renew efforts at the
plenary session of the conference, so
that the final decision is still open.
As to affairs of the peace confer
ance as whole, they are shaping
themselves now, with the League of
Nations question and nearly all the
main points Of the peace treaty vir-
tually disposed of, so that the date
| when the enemy delegates will be
summoned to Versailles has been ten
tatively set.
The summoning of the peace con-
gress, as it will be called, instead Of
the peace conference" will, accord
ing to present understanding occur
between April Twenty-siX and May

Indications are that the Germans
will be given an opportunity to dis

IDEA OF RIGHT PREVAILS
Whether Treaty VIII Be Ready
BY Easter Is Another Ques-

London, Sunday British Wireless
Service 1.-The main items of peace
| with Germany have been substantial
ly agreed upon by the Council of
Four the Paris correspondent of the
Sunday Observer says he understands.
The only problem which they have
not yet approached is the Bohemian
border, ne says, and points out that
this is an intricate one, as it raises
the question of whether a consider
able number of Germans must be in
cluded in the CZecho-Sloyak state.
He says it is very likely that the
question of Danzig will be settled by
setting up kind of autonomous state
the Polish custom area.
The correspondent continues;
whether the treaty will be ready by
Easter is of course another question
The important TACT is, however, that
the Council of Four seems to have
agreed on all the fundamental points.
This is a distinct improvement"
On the subjact of the western Dor
der of Germany the correspondent
states that he has it on good authori.
ty that Clcmenceaus main object has
been from the first day of the confer
ence to paw The way to settlement
that should he entirely based on the
idea of right which, since eighteen
seventy, has been embodied in Alsace-

LEAGUE ENTHUSIASTS IN

London, April lathe summary of

tators 10 be less satisfactory than the
first draft.
The Chronicle for instance points
out certain points which it thinks
makes the new draft "distinctly, per:
hapS decisiTely, inferior to the old"
1t condems the policy of requiring
unanimity for decisions Of both the
council and the assembly and also
condemns the terms upon which the
covenant can he amended and the per
mission given & nation to withdraw
on two wears notice. II regards the
covenant as rnharmed by the Monroe
Doctrine amendment.
The daily News which is a warm
champion of the League, sees danger
in some of it's provisions.
The labor newspaper, Herald, says
the summary does not indicate much
Improvement on the original draft.
and declares from democratic view
point the League is still an alliance
of states, not a union Of peoples
The Post which is an opponent OF
the League and severe critic Of Presi-
