 WHILE EUROPE WATTS FOR

 The struggles Of Europe, during the past two years are explained herc frankly and clearly Every ] Afnerican wants to know the facts lit gives. and wants them from some one who was personally and oefi- cially concerned in the matters in question. Mr. Moves was the Amer lean member of the Rh.neldnd eom- mission to which the allias gave su- iprefne authority in the occupied ter rltory of Germany
 Not the least startling statemept | in the book is Mr Moves insistence trat the, United States must cancel Fra nce's debt He takes issue with Mr. Keynes suggestion that the British debt also should be cancefed ] It is not Jess interesting than s'fch lotEer points as the revelation of the iintrisres which sought to separate | tho Rhine provinces from Germany, the consideration of the conse- quences of possible French military invasion of Germany, and the results O. a 15 years occupation of the Ger I man Rhine provinces.

"THE PEACE NEGOTIATIONS. "A. P1gR SONAI. NARRATlVE) By
 Robert Lansing, Illustrated. Tough
 ton. Mifflin Company, Publishers,
 Boston.
 There have been many narratives of the momentous events during the peace negotiations at Paris in 1913, by newspaper correspopdents' taches and academic experts. but In MT Lansing's eagerly awaited book we have for the first time an author itative narrative from the hand of one of the actual commissioners.
 As Secretary of State throughout the war, and as one of the five American representatives at the peace conference, MT. Lansing had all unique opportunity both for knowing what actually happened at Paris. and for seeing 1t in perspective against its diplomatic background. His statement of the part played oy America in the peace negotiations cannot fail to remain one of the out standing documents in the diplomatic history of our greatest war.
 The chief interest in his story, how : ever, is more personal, more dramatic, than this His book is not dry his toric document, but vivid narrative of his personal relations with Presd- dent Wilson, and of the growth of that divergence of view which led to his resignation. Supported by cor respondence and memoranda of con- versations, MT. Lansing tells iny de- tail the story of the episodes which led to this dramatic conclusion.
 In the entire field of American his tory, there has probably been no more absorbingly interesting personal sit- nation than this or one more deeply involved with the future course of world history. None of this interest is lost in Mir. Lansing's clear and equable pages
 The contents of the book. which will sufficiently irS cate the field which it covers, are as follows: Rea- sons for Writing a Personal Narra- tive-Mr. Wilson's Presence at the Peace onference-General Plan for League of Nations-Substitute Ar ticles Proposed-The Positive Guar anty and Balance of Power-The Presidents Plan and the Cecil Plan Self Determination-A Resolution 1n- stead of the Covenant-The Guaranty on the Revised .Covenant-Internat- ional rbitration-Report of Conn mission on the League of Nations The System of s-Differences as to the League Eecapitulated-The Proposed Treaty With France-Lack of an American orogramme-Secret Dlplomacy-The Shantung Settlement
 The Bullitt Affair.".

 At the present moment our sugs '

 mission and If that sugar commis- sion co-operates with the allies and the Cuban producers to take ovcf the Cuban crop at the fixed price, that we can effect considerable saving on the present inflated price of raw sugar throughout the whole
 of next year."
 In regard to it's proba ble duration,
 the attitude of the American people
 at the time when the sugar boai q began to function fully. that is m
 the fall Of 1918, is perhaps best ex- pressed in the following quotation from Mir. Hoover's statement of Sep | tember 20, 1918.
 There is no prospect of. proper ending of the war before the cam paign of the summer of 1919. To a.- | tain victory we must place in France | three and a half million fighting 1 men. with the greatest mechanical | equipment that has ever been given | to any army. While we expect tl1e position of the western front may De I improved. from military point of
 view, between now and then, there
 can be no hope for a contamination
 of the end that we must secure, until anothef year has gone by.
 If we are to accomplish this end in 1919 we will save a million Amer
