Treaty Debate Reported.
Parliament was in session last
night and there were unverified re-
ports that it already was debating
the terms for peace.
CA Columbia Broadcasting Sys-
tenn correspondent at Helsinki
telephoned New York that Par
lament would meet at noon)
All signs pointed to a thorough
examination of the treaty by Par
lament. Eighty-five of the 200 seats
are held by the Social Democratic
party headed by Tanner, a princi-
pal target of attack in Russian
propaganda.
Firms, deeply disturbed by the
reported terms on which Russia
had offered peace, weighed them
against the demands which Russia
made before the war and found
that the price had been drastically
raised.
For example, where Russia had
asked for only part of the Karelian
Isthmus> ito secure the safety of
Leningrad," the present treaty would
give her all of it and more, includ-
ing a strip bordering the northern
shore of Lake Ladoga.

reports on the eve of the broad

be to their interests in the light Of
all available knowledge"
Mr.. Hore-Belisha, who was re-
ported to have urged an expedi-
tionary force for Finland before he
was ousted on January S, entered
the debate after Mr.. Chamberlain
had told Commons that Britain had
made plain its willingness to give
all possible help to the Firms "in
| their gallant struggle against ag-
gression."
Aid Is Defended.
Mr.. Chamberlain faced a sober
Parliament anxious to question him
on last nights Moscow peace, and
in particular to debate Britains part
in the Russo-Finnish war.
He defended Britain's help to
Finland. He expressed the nations
admiration for the courage" of the
Firms, and repeated that I'VE had
made preparations to throw the full
weight of all available resources into
| the scales on hearing that this was
in accordance with the desires of the
| FINNISH government"
/ Mr. Hore-Belisha criticized the
government for delaying sending
men to Finland until requested by
Finland to do so.
Mr.. Hore-Belisha wanted to know
if it was not fact that repeated
appeals had been made by that
country for assistance in material
and men,"
Mr.. Chamberlain denied that re
peated requests for men had been
made by the Finnish government"
and declared that every request for
materials was answered and Fin
land was told that Britain was pre-
pared to send men also if they ap-
| pealed for them.
| $4,000 Men Promised.
Only yesterday Premier Daladier
of France declared that Britain and
France had $4,000 troops fully equip
ped at two ports ready to embark
Immediately if Finland should call.
In the circumstances in which
they found themselves, however, the
Firms decided not to make such a
request, Mr.. Chamberlain said.
Mr.. Hore- -Belisha, dissatisfied with
the Chamberlain statement on Fin
land, asked for a full Commons de-
bate "in the light >of these events
on the whole conduct of the war"
Mr.. Chamberlain declared in reply
to question that "at no time did
we threaten the neutrality of Swe-
den" Sweden's neutrality was pre-
sumed to have been involved in the
question of transporting British
troops to Finland.
Mr.. Hore- -Belisha's request for a
debate brought shout from some
member on the Labor bench, "and
discuss you, too; you want us to fight
the world"
Asked for a statement on the ac-
tual amount of assistance given Fin
land, Mr.. Chamberlain said he
would nave to have notice Of that
question, meaning that he required
time to consider an answer.

Protocol Is Attached.
While the Firms are withdrawing
to their new frontiers, the Russians
are to move forward, the news
agency announced.
D. N. B. said the provisions for the
neutral zones and the Russian occu-
pations were made in a protocol at
tached to the peace treaty.
Authorized German source
beamed with satisfaction today over
the Russian Finnish peace.
Its terms, they said, were 'in just
proportion to the sacrifices made
and in just proportion to the needs
and necessities which certain states
in large living spaces have right
to claim"
These sources also expressed
opinion that the treaty, as signed at
Moscow, constituted no danger to
Finnish living space.
Authorized sources further held
that conclusion of the peace marked
failure of a so-called British French
attempt to extend the area of COM
bat into Scandinavia.
Disdain for "Buffoons."
They spoke with greatest disdain
of those buffoons" who thought at
the last moment they could use Fin
land "the same way they used Po-
land"
Fortunately" they added, "the
Firms proved more sensible than the
| Poles. The whole affair is anything
but honorable for England and
France. These western powers to-
tally miscalculated."
Authorized sources again empha-
sized that Germany remained strict
ly neutral in the northern conflict
and left it to the Firms to settle
their affairs with the Russians as
best they could.
They insisted that Finland went
into the fight only because she relied
on the western powers for aid.
While the Berlin press front-paged
the terms of the Russian Finnish
peace without comment, they un-
leashed an attack on Great Britain
and France, charging they had at
tempted to prevent an armistice.
The BIZ am Mittags treatment
was typical. In a three-line streamer
across page l, it said:
"England's Vile Play With Fire OF
War in Northern Europe Fin
land Was to Become a New Case o1

The article then assailed the allie.
for offering to intervene in the
