brought to the American military
representative with the request
that he sign it. This he refused
to do. Gen. Bliss declared. in the
absence of instructions from
Washington.
Tracing the events subsequent
to the Presidents note of October
% referring the German peace
overtures to the allies. Gen. Bliss
said that had the military au-
thorities been allowed to discuss
the terms at meeting the result
would have been a prompt and
harmonious agreement. but in
upon individually by the allied
governments and the Americans
were called upon last of all.
At the moment the American
command knew. Gen. Bliss said,
that the proposition receiving the
most favorable consideration in
the council of ministers departed
radically from the principles of
complete disarmament of the
enemy. The proposed terms. he
continued, not merely permitted
but required Germany to concen-
trate all her forces of sevesal
million trained soldiers within
her own territory in selected DO
sitions. The American military
section of. the supreme war coun-

no possibility of the Germans re-

contending that the amount Of
material on hand was not sum-

material in the hands of the Ger
mans could be used as a last re-
sort.
Position vindicated.
This contention on the part Of the
Americans was borne out when II
was found that after surrendering
the arms called for and more that
they had abandoned they carried
back larger amount than they had
left into Germany, Gen Bliss said.
Quoting the recent alleged state
ment by Rudyard Kipling that
America had forced the allies into
making peace at the first opportu-
nifty instead of finishing in Berlin"
and that America quit the day of
the armistice. without waiting to
see the thing through" Gen. Bliss
said that. though the statement hav-
ing been denied could not be attrib-
uted to the famous author. they are
allegations frequently made by ILL
informed or malicious writers and
speakers.
AS to what America did after the
armistice. Gen. Bliss told his au-
dience that the American Peace
Commission was the first to be ap-
pointed. They arrived in Paris, he
said. long before any Of the others.
and after the consideration of peace
began the delay in seeing the thing
through was caused solely by the
passionate and selfish greed of the
powers. which. dazzled by the enor-'
nifty of the loot lying before them,
refused to make peace with the
enemy until they could settle their
and agree on the distrib-
ution of the loot.
