some success. The desire of the
Polish people for peace is 50 SIN
cere that the dispatch Of the dele
cation 10 Rigs. baispg absolute
refusal by the soylets 20 sttend. Is
inevitable.
A competent unbiased observer
said today that the delays were
not because OF a weakening ambi-
tion toward peace, but the inability
of the Poles 20 agree as TO the
terms. A really safe, copper-riveted
form Of peace agreement no Pole
anticipates even with peace. The
army can be demobilized or pre-
paredness be brought 20 an end, but
all Poles want the nearest approach
to a real agreement so the high
rate Of war expenditures can be
halted and men furloughed for work
on farms and villages.
The Polish-Lithuanian situation
IL growing worse. The Poles exempt
the civil authorities from RESPONSE
bility, but men from the district
under dispute say the Lithuauisns
have been violating their neutrality
promises deliberately and that the
civil as well as the military fac

Paris, Sept. 1l.-Several incidents
lately indicate that the French
seem inclined to show a better
spirit toward the Germans, un-
doubtedly with the belated idea
that it may prove the better method
of eventually getting something
out of them. As a result of the
recent AFFAIR in the Weisbaden
Casino, when Gen. Mordacq ordered
the expulsion OF a German news
paperman who was there on the
permission of Gen. Degoutte, COM
manding the Rhine army, Mordacq
is to be called to Paris to explain
his conduct.
The press generally speaks OF the
affair as "regrettable." The Matin
explains Mordacq's rudeness was a
result merely of following the ex-
ample previously set by himself"
The Matin details the scene in 1917
at the ceremony in the war ONCE
when Mordacq was installed as
military chief of the cabinet to
ClemenceaG, saying
Disinterested Journalists.
Many journalists were present
/ not from choice or to look at the
latest protege of Clemenceau. but
merely as part of their duty.
MordacQ entered the room in a state
OF insane fury and in vulgar terms
ordered the journalists out. Tho
Incident was not commented on at
the time because in those days we
had preoccupations more grave"
The French are also now admit
ting that the Germans seem inclined
to carry out the obligations taken
at Spa on the subject OF coal de-
liveries. Such admissions are not
given much space. They usually
are at the bottom of a column on
| the inside pages of the newspapers.
Disarmament Worries.
The question is also raised as to
how are the Germans carrying out
| the terms of disarmament Octo-
Der l is the date set for the re-
IctiOn of the Reichswher troops to
i15O,0O0. French figures now have II
/ that the German army still com
prises 35O,OOO. So the press critics
are already perking up over what
they consider impossible for the
Germans to reduce 100000 and
that they will still be over the limit
before the tine expires. Thus there
may be an excuse further to talk
about occupying the Ruhr Valley
after all.

TRUCE ENJOYS
FOR RIGA
Soviets Expect Poles to Dis
cuss Lithuanian Border
Question.
Washington Hcrnd-PubIic Ledger
Service, Special Gable DIspntch)

Berlin, Sept. 1.-THE Polish dele
cation, according TO advices re-
ceiyed here, was to leave for Riga
tonight. The government Is sppar-
emily determined to rest its peace
conditions upon the approval OF the
council of national defense. The
prospect Of delay arising from the
Soviet demands for additional guar
antees of immunity to the delega-
ton is removed. The Latvian gov
ernment has accepted the Soviet
conditions.
The noted Bolshevist, Axelrod,
who participated in the Minsk nego-
tiations, informed his German com
rades that the chief difficulties ex-
pected to arise at Riga are in the
question of the future status of
Lithuania, white Russia, and the
Ukraine, and proposals dealing with
rehabilitation and disarmament
The question OF frontiers, aside
from that with Lithuania, is prac-
tically settled, he said, adding that
the Poles and the Bolshevists
agreed at Minsk to accept in gen.
eral the Curzon line.
But the Poles, he asserted, in
sisted on maintaining for Poland
areas including Vino and Grodno,
which the Soviet recognized in the
treaty with Lithuania as a part OF
that State. They also demanded
that the Soviet assent to the Polish
protectorates over Lithuania, White
Russia, and the Ukraine. The
agreement on rehabilitation was
not even approached, the Poles
fatty refusing the Soviet demand to
reduce their army to $4,000.
Axelford's assumption that the
frontier question is settled does not
agree with the recent German dis
patches from Warsaw which report
the inclination to claim for strategic
reasons, the frontier along the de-
fensive line established by the Ger
mans during the late stages of the
world war. A strong disinclination
in various Polish quarters against
Inny discussion of the Lithuanian
and Ukrainian questions with the
Bolshevists at Riga also is reported
