Council Of Ambassadors,
[By Henry Wood, United Press Staff
Correspondent
PARIS, Feb. 6.-The council Of
ambassadors has decided that re-
sumption of trade with soviet Russia,
through her cooperative societies
now practically is impossible because
of the soviet governments control OK
the co-operatives, it was learned to-
day.
The question came up at the cuun-
ellis meeting today when the Sign
ing of peace between, Esthonia and
tho Russian soviet government was
discussed.
The allied decision to resume Rus
sian trade was announced by the old
supreme council, several weeks ago,
but no definite steps were taken.
The council meeting today did not
take any action ON Germany's afti-
tude in protesting against delivery
of war guilty. It awaited the arrival
of Lord Birkenhead. British lord
chancellor, and Sir Gordon Hewart,
attorney general, who were delayed
enroute from London.
Hugh Wallace, the American am
bassador having reminded the coun-
Gil that article 371 of the peace
treaty (outlining provision by which
certain German railway lines are to
be turned over to the allies) pro
vides for an American member on
the commission, it was decided to
appoint substitute to act fol- the
United States until she ratifles the
Versailles pact.
Although General Bandholz. Of the
American army and chief Of the al
lied military mission in Budapest, is
returning to Paris the council de-
cided that the allied mission will be
continued.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.--Republi-
can bitter enders" in the senate will
meet tomorrow to decide how best to
launch the attack they hope will
again prevent ratification of the peace
treaty.
Senators favoring flat rejection are
hampered by the fact that they can
not learn the plans Of Senator Lodge,
leader in tie fight for ratification with
strong reservations. Ten of them met
yesterday in an effort to determine
their course when the treaty Is called
up Monday, but were unable to agree.
Lodge expects irreconcilables will
|attempt = dl1tbuster. Monday whom he
moves to suspend the rules and pro-
ceeds to consideration of the treaty.
Under the rules they can talk endless
ily on this motion
Some of the irreconcil&bles urged
that an ultimatum be served on Lodge
threatening to tie up the treaty in
definitely, unless he agreed that no
effort be made to limit debate on the
treaty ITSELF.
V1scount Grey's letter has apparent
ly stiffened the resolution of the bit
ter enders" never to let the treaty be
ratified if there is any way to pre-
vent it. For that matter, the Grey let
ter has evidently strengthened the de.
termination of every faction in the
treaty fight
Democratic leaders who resent
Grey's action declared today it has
banished from their minds any
thoughts of yielding to the Lodge pro-
gram.
Lodges group claims to find in
Grey's letter endorsement of their
program of reservations and this has
made them insistent that acceptance
of that program Is the price of ratiti-
cation.
While the irreconcilables are plan
ming fast and furious campaign Tor
complete rejection, the Lodge group
and the democrats are making equally
careful plans. Neither side has yet
determined It's course Of action on
Monday. Lodge is undecided whether
to present his reservations in their
original form or In the form in which
they had been tentatively agreed on
in the bipartisan conference when
that compromise effort failed. The
democrats are to determine their
course at meeting to be held at the
same time the republican irreconcil-
ables meet. .-. .

LONDON, Feb. 6.-The allied reply
to the Dutch note, refusing extradi-
,ion of the former kaiser. will be a
distinct reapplication of the original
allied demand that he be delivered to
them for trial, it was stated on good
authority here today.
The note, which was drafted In
Paris, was received in Downing
street late yesterday and was sub
mitted to Premier Llos j-George and
the cabinet for their inspection before
it is transmitted to Holland.
The outstanding features OF the al
lied communication. according to au-
lhoritative officials is a rebuttal OF
the Dutch legal arguments against
extradition. The communication 1t was
said, cannot really be ciassed as =
reply for 1t Is distinct reapplicRtion
of the allied demand for surrender OF
the former emperor of Germany.
The note, 1t was said, contains addi-
tional information and arguments why
extradition Is desirable and even I'M
perative.
The second section. 1t was inti-
mated, offers the alternative that
should Holland refuse to submit to the
demand for extradition. the allies must
make it clear they cannot consent 10

rope and that Holland must remove

Members Of the British cabinet and
| the French government, II was said,
consider restoration of the monarchy
In Germany as not at all impossible
II the former kaiser had the back
bone to carry out such plan.
Allied leaders, it was said, consider
as particularly significant the Ger
man attempt to eyade delivery Of war
criminals whose surrender is de-
manded by the allies.
There are no threats of an economic
blockade against Holland in the note,
IT was said, but the communication does
convey the unalterable determination
Oh the allies to carry out the peace
treaty to the letter.
Commenting on the allied demand
10 Germany that she surrender 845
war criminals, officials said it was the
unanimous viewpoint of allied leaders
mat force should be used If neces-
sary to force German compliance.
This was considered necessary for
TWO reasons:
First the demand offers a real test
ior Germany's intentions towards OBJ
