ALLIES SEND SHARP
WARNING TO BERLIN
WILL INFORM GERMANS THAT
THEY MUST OBSERVE
THE TREATY.
Lloyd George Suggests Economic Pres
sure, Deriving Germany of Food
and Raw Material Should
She Continue Negligent.

San Remo.-The interallied supreme
council began its formal sessions on
April 10, In the villa Deyauchan, on
the hills to the northwest Of the main
town.
While the Turkish question was on
the program for first consideration by
the conference, 1t developed that there
already had been discussion over the
question of enforcing the execution of
the treaty of peace with Germany.
Premiers Mlllerand, Nitti and Lloyd
George, after their meeting with For
eign Minister Sclaloia of Italy, Philippe
Berthelot, political director of the
French foreign office; Earl Curzon,
British foreign minister, and numer-
Gus secretaries at the Villa Devauchau,
met again late In the afternoon at Pre-
mier Nltti's hotel.
They were agreed without mo-
ment's discussion that Germany should
be told In the most positive manner
that she must observe the treaty.
Premier Lloyd George suggested eco
nomic pressure, depriving Germany of
food, raw materials and intercourse
with the the allied countries should
she continue negligent. Premier Mil
lerand Is described as having said that
such pressure without the use of ma
val or military aid, would in effect be
no pressure at all. The only warn
ing that would be respected, the only
pressure that would be effective, he
asserted, would be force-the applica-
ton of such force as the military and
naval advisers might deem sufficient.
Premier Lloyd George, 1t is said, re-
sisted this conclusion. Premier Nitti
inclined toward the British prime min
ister's view, and the matter rested
there for the present.
The Turkish treaty was approved by
the council In the general form In
which it was drawn. Changes were
made in two points. 1t was decided
to request Turkish plenipotentiaries
to present themselves in London May
10 to receive the treaty.

during the past three weeks.
Many of the strikers went out with

increases in wages granted to other
railroad men prompted their action.
The strikers who acted in defiance of
their railroad brotherhood chiefs, have
generally returned without any defin-
lite promise of more pay.
In many cases, however, they have
been assured their demands will be
presented to President Wilson's labor
board, which is empowered under the
federal transportation act to settle
disputes between the railroads and
their men. The board is now sitting
in Washington.
In Chicago, the original strike CEN
