NEWS REVIEW OF
CURRENT EVENTS
Germans Hand in Their Counter
Proposals for Peace to
Council of Four.
WANT TO RETAIN COLONIES
Make Many Other Demands to Which
Allies Will Not Yield Adriatic Ques
tion Settled, Flume Becoming In
dependent City Western Can
ada Strike Spreads.
By EDWARD W. PICKARD.
The Germans have handed In their
counter-proposals 10S printed pages
of them with the evident nnd pre
sumably Justified feeling that they
won't do Germany nny particular good.
If the replies of the nllles to Krock-dorff-Ilnntznu's
preliminary notes fur
nish any Imsls for prediction, It Is safe
to say that this hunch of counter-proposals
will lu the main he turned down
flnt by the council of four.
As was easily foreseen, the Germans
predlcnte tlielr propositions largely on
the fourteen points and on various
Idealistic utterances of President Wil
son and others, nnd quotations from
these are used liberally. The Ideas
of territorial self-determination nnd
opportunities for economic develop
ment nro played upon strongly, and
the peace- terms prepared by the al
lies are declared to be In contradiction
to a Just pence and dominated by the
"might greater than right" principle.
Germany refuses absolutely to cede
Upper Silesia, and declines to give up
the Sanr basin, I'osen and other terri
tory unless a plebiscite Is held. Dan
zig, she says, must be a free port and
must not be In any way controlled by
the Poles, but It Is agreed that the
Vistula river may be neutralized as
far as the Polish border. She agrees
to surrender her warships and to dis
solve the rest of her nnvy, but de
mands merchant shipping In exchnnge,
saying this Is necessary to her com
mercial life. She accepts the limita
tion of the army to 100.000 men, but
wants more than thnt for the present
to maintain order. She offers to pay
nn Indemnity of $.r,000,000,000 In gold
by 1020 and to make nnnual payments
thereafter up to n total of ?2r.000,000,
000, but puts In n counter-claim of
about $.1,300,000,000 for damages from
the allied blockndc.
The Germans refuse to admit that
Germnny Is alone to blame for the wnr
nnd its damage, and take n slap at
Italy nnd Iloumanln, which, they as
Bert, entered the conflict for territo
rial conquest. As for personal respon
sibility, they declare they will not sur
render the former kaiser and others
for trial by the allies, asserting they
can be tried only by Germans or neu
trals. Return of Germnny's colonics Is de
manded, though It Is agreed that Ger
many might be wllllngg to net ns man
datory for them under the league ot
nations, nnd the right of Germany to
enter the league nt once on an equal
ity with other nntlons Is nsserted. All
occupied territories, say tho counter
proposals, must be evacuated within
six months. In claiming tho return of
the colonies the Germans call atten
tion to the fnct that an Impartial set
tlement of all colonial claims was
promised In number five of the four
teen points. This reads;
"Free, open-minded, and absolutely
Impartial adjustment of all colonial
claims, based upon n strict observanco
of the principle thnt In determining all
such questions of sovereignty the In
terests of the population concerned
must have equal weight with tho equi
table claims of the government whoso
tltlo Is to he determined."
Since Germany's administration of
her colonial possessions, especially
those In Africa, was notoriously op
pressive to the nntlves. It Is hard
to see how she can gain much by nn
appeal to an ngreement that the Inter
ests of the people concerned shnll be
given full weight.
Germany's claim for damages due to
the blockade Is based on the alleged
loss of thousands of lives from hun
ger nnd malnutrition. Hut tho allied
council Is ready for them on this point
with statistics that prove the Infant
mortality In German cities would have
been kept at near normal If the dis
tribution of the country's milk supply
had been elllclcnt, since the milk pro
duction never was below 45 per cent
of tho pre-war figures. Mortality In
hospitals, due to lack of rubber and
cotton, also was cited by the Germans.
To this the allies reply that the Im
ports of rubber and cotton were much
In excess of hospital requirements, but
the authorities chose to devote theso
supplies to mllltnry purposes, nnd for
this choice the allies cannot be held re
sponsible. These are the outstanding points In
the counterproposals made by the
Huns. They object, of course, to In
numinerable other clauses In the
treaty, especially the economic provi
sions, and offer many substitutions
nnd modifications. It Is not likely thnt
the council of four will require many
days to digest the document nnd re
ply to 'it. Then the Germans will be
required to sign the treaty within n
given time, presumably before June
1R. Jf, unexpectedly, they refuse to
sign, they will be given 72 hours' no
tice of the termination of the armistice
and then the blockade will be restored
with all its former rigidity nnd the
allied armies of occupation will ad
vance fnrther Into German territory.
No one pretends that the Germans
could offer serious armed reslstnncc to
such n movement. An Indication of
the unyielding spirit of the allies wns
given last week when American nnd
Rrltlsh troops were landed nt Danzig
nnd their warships began to gather
there.
At homo In Germnny the counter
proposals seemed to please no one.
The conservative papers denounced
them as too yielding nnd the radical
press said they did not yield enough.
None hnd much hope of their suc
cess. According to correspondents In Ger
many, the Germnns Intend to sign tho
treaty, but also Intend to evnde Its
terms In every way possible. This
would mean that the allies would be
compelled to keep under arms n large
force of "collectors." The German
people, as a whole, say theso corre
spondents, hnve ndoptcd the position
that they will pay for tho war only
what Is forced out of them. They nro
more united in spirit than nt anytime
before for several years, and cannot
be brought to see thnt they nro a de
feated, not u conquering people. In
other words, say these observers, Ger
mnny hns not had enough whipping.
The terms of pence with Austria,
though not wholly completed, were
hnnded to the Austrlnn delegates. All
the territorial questions were Included,
but certain economic arrangements
nnd the matter of reparation were left
for further consideration. It was
known, however, that Austria would
be required to pay about 2,500,000,000
kroner Indemnity, nnd that the pay
ment of a like sum would be apportion
ed among Hungary, Czecho-Slavakla,
.Tugo-Slavla, Itoumanla, Poland and
Italy. The countries that formerly
formed parts of the Austro-IIungn-rlnn
empire hnve ngreed to share In
the payment of Indemnity, not as en
emies of the nllles, but In recognition
of their liberation. They also will re
deem proportionately their share of
the Austrian paper currency In circu
lation within their boundaries. Italy
Is Included because of her acquisition
of the Trentlno, Trieste nnd other ter
ritory that was Austrian.
It wns announced In Paris that tho
Adriatic muddle had been cleared up
at last. Flume Is to bo an Independ
ent city and Italy Is to get Scbenlco
and Zara, together with soverlgnty
over certain strategic Islands.
News from Russia Is frequently de
layed and often confusing, but the
latest advices from that wretched
country show that Admiral Kolchak
Is unremittingly driving the. bolshevik
forces Inward. Some days ngo he wns
attacking Orenburg, nn important rail
way junction nnd jx bolshevik strong
hold In southeastern Russia. Dis
patches from Omsk told of n revolt
against the soviet rule In tlje Ukraine,
Trotzky'a forces thus being attacked
from the rear. The Esthoninns con
tinued their advance on Petrograd
while declaring they meant to occupy
that city only to relieve Its suffering
Inhabitants, nnd If recent reports from
there are reliable tho relief Is sadly
needed, for tho people nro said to be
starving to death by the thousands.
New units of the Rrltlsh volunteer
nrniy arrived at Archangel and the
transports that took them were ex
pected to bring nway the American
troops thnt hnve been serving there,
nnd whoso return hns been so loudly
demanded. According to Maxim Gorky,
who wns Interviewed by Frnzler Hunt,
the outside world cannot aid Russia;
boMievIsm must run Its course, bring
ing gradual starvation and paralysis of
Industries; n great revolt will follow,
with a reign of terror, nnd then there
will be a constituent assembly In which
the peasants will nssert their powci
nnd form n democracy.
The Iludapest communists clnlmed
to have defented the forces of tho
"enemy" that wore advancing on tho
city, and assert that one Roumanlnn
regiment wns almost wiped out. Rela
Kun, however, Is not satisfying I.cnlne,
who announces that Moscow, not
Budapest, Is tho revolutionary center
of the world and Its orders must ba
obeyed, and that the Hungarian revo
lution Is not proceeding well.
In the United States senate tho bat
tle over tho league of nations Is pro
ceeding merrily, nnd on Wednesday
the Democratic nntlonal committee
took n hand. It unanimously adopt
ed resolutions domandlng thnt the
league covenant be ratified by the sen
ate, which Is controlled by the Repub
licans, and then its'membcrs Indicated
that the rejection of the covenant
would not be unwelcome to them, be
cause It would force tho political Is
sue. .
Reed of Missouri delivered In tho
sennte n fierce denunciation of the
league, In the course of which he said
the covenant meant tho domination of
tho white races by tho block, yellow
and brown races, his appeal being
chiefly to the southern nnd far west
ern senators. Senntor Robinson of Ar
kansas, also n Democrat, replied to
Heed nnd challenged him to Join him
In resigning nnd seeking re-election
as a test of the sentiment of their
states on tho lengue question.
Secretary Daniels, appearing be
fore the liouso committee on naval nf
falrs, formally withdrew his recom
mendation for n second thrce-yenr
program of battleship building which,
as he formerly snld, was designed to
make tho American navy the biggest In
the world. Last winter ho told tho con
gressmen thnt even with n league of
nations the United States should have
a navy as large as Great Britain's.
Now he says we must show our confi
dence In tho efllcncy of tho lenguo by
at least postponing any plans for such
a nnval Increase.
The great general strike which has
tied up nnd almost Isolated Winnipeg
has not yet been brought to an end,
and, despite the efforts of the govern
ment representatives, 1b spreading to
other cities of western Canada. The
authorities declare the agitators ara
trying to overthrow the dominion and
provincial governments nnd to estnb
lish bolshevlsm. This the strike lead
ers deny, but their course lends credi
bility to the nccusatlon. Ostensibly
the strike Is to enforce tho workers'
demnnd for the right of collective bar
gaining, but tho plan to form tho "ono
big union," fostered by the I. W. W.,
Is apparently nt the bottom of the trou
ble. Lieutenant Commander Rend and
his crew of tho Amerlcnn nnvy plane
NC-4 completed their grent achieve
ment of crossing tho Atlnntlc by air
plane by flying from the Azores to Lis
bon, Portugal. The last leg of tho epoch-making
flight wns without special
Incident. Tho hold nvlators were re
ceived In Lisbon with plaudits and giv
en decorations.
Hawker nnd Grieve, given up for
dead, were picked up In mld-Atlnntlc
by n small steamer which took them
to Great Rrltaln. There they were
welcomed as the heroes they undoubt
edly are. though their attempt failed.
It was regrettable that Hawker should
show himself to be a poor sport by
belittling and sneering at the feul of
the Americans.
