to France all her drafts and designs
for this part of the river.
Belgium Granted Canal Right
Belgium is to be permited to build
a deep draft Rhine-Meuse canal if
it so desires within 25 years, in
which case Germany must construct
the part within her territory on
plans drawn by Belgium; similarly,
the interested allied governments
may construct a Rhine-Meuse canal,
both if constructed to come under
the competent international commis
sion. Germany may not object if
the central Rhine commission de
sires to extend its jurisdiction over
the lower Moselle, the upper Rhine,
or lateral canals. '
Germany must cede tosthe allied
and associated governments certain
tugs, vessels and facilities for nav
igation on all these rivers, the spe
cific details to be established by an
arbiter named by the United States.
Decision will be based on the legiti
mate needs of the parties concerned
and on the shipping traffic during
the five years before the war. The
value will be included in the regular
reparation account. In the case of
the Rhine shares in the German nav
igation companies and properties
such as wharves and warehouses
held by Germany in Rotterdam at
the outbreak of war must be handed
over.
Railways: Germany in addition
to most favored nation treatment on
her railways agrees to co-operate in
the establishment of through ticket
services for passengers and baggage
to insure communication by rail be
tween the allied, associated and oth
er states; to allow the construction
or improvement within 25 years of
such lines as necessary; and to con
form her rolling stock to enable its
incorporation in trains of the allied
or associated powers. She also
agrees to accept the denunciation of
the St. Gothard convention if Swit
zerland and Italy so request and
temporarily to execute instructions
as to the transport of troops and
supplies and the establishment of
postal and telegraphic service, as
provided.
Czechs Given Access to Sea.
Czecho-Slovakia: To assure
Czecho-Slovakia access to the sea,
special rights are given her both
north and south. Toward the Adri
atic she is permitted to run her
own through trains to Fiume' and

three representing Czecho-Slovakia,
Germany and Great Britain.
The Kiel canal: The Kiel canal is
to remain free and open to war and
merchant ships of all nations at
peace with Germany. Goods and
ships of all states are to be treated
on terms of absolute equality, and
no taxes to be imposed beyond those
necessary for upkeep and improve
ment for which Germany is to be re
sponsible. In case of violation or
disagreement as those provisions
any state' may appeal to the league
of nations, and may demand the ap
pointment of an international com
mission, for preliminary hearing ot
complaints Germany shall establish
a local authority at Kiel.
Co-operate in Labor Adjustments.
International labor organizations:
Members of the league of nations
agree to establish a permanent or
ganization to promote international
adjustment of labor conditions, to
consist of an annual international
labor conference and an interna
tional labor office.
The former is composed of four
representatives of each state, two
from the government, and one each
from the employers and the em
ployed; each of them may vote in
dividually. It will be a deliberative
legislation body, its measures taking
the form of draft conventions or
recommendations for legislation,
which, if passed by two-thirds vote,
must be submitted to the law-making
authority in every state partici
pating. Each government may either
enact the terms into law, approve
the principle, but modify them 'to
local needs, leave the actual legisla
tion in case of a federal state to lo
cal legislatures, or reject the con
vention altogether without , further
obligation.
The -international labor office is
established at the seat of the league
of nations as part of its organiza
tion. It is to collect and distribute
information on labor throughout
the world and prepare agenda for
the conference. It will publish a
periodical in French and English,
and possibly other languages. Each
state agrees to make to it for pre
sentation to the conference an an
nual report of measures taken to
execute accepted conventions; the
governing body is its executive
committee. It consists of 24 mem
bers, 12 representing the govern
ments, six the employers and six
the employes to serve for three
years.
Will Meet at Washington.
On complaint that any govern
ment has tailed to carry out a con
vention to which it is a party, the
governing body may make inquiries
directly to that government and in
case the reply is unsatisfactory may
publish the complaint with com
ment, complaint by one govern
ment against another may be de
ferred before the governing body to
a commission of inquiry nominated
by the secretary-general of the
league. - If the commission report
fails, to bring satisfactory afiort
the matter may be taken to a per
manent court of international jus
tice for final decision The chief
reliance for securing enforcement
of the law will be publicity with a'
possibility of economic action in the
background., '
The first meeting of the confer
ence wrill take place in October, 1919,
at Washington to discuss the eight-
hour day or 48-hour week; preven
tion of unemployment, extension

and of children as regards minimum
age.
Labor clauses: Nine principles oi

the ground that "the well being.
physical and moral.yof the industrial
wage earners is ofsupreme interna
tional importance. With exceptions
necessitated by differences of cli
mate, habits and economic develop
ment they include: lhe guiding

regarded merely as a commodity or
article of commerce; right of asso
ciation of employers and employes;
a wage adequate to maintain a rea

Cologne, will be evacuated at the

er districts, including the bridge
head of Coblenz and the territories
nearest the Belgian frontier, will be
evacuated .after 10 years, and lie
remander, including the bridgehead
of Mainz,will be evacuated after 15

In case the interallied reparation
commission finds that Germany has
failed to observe the whole or part
of its obligations, either during the
occupation or after the 15 years
have expired, the whole or part of
tne areas specified will be reoccu
pied immediately. If before the ex
piration of the 15 years Germany
complies with all the treaty under
takings, the occupying forces will
be withdrawn immediately.
Eastern Europe: All German
troops at present in territories to
the east of the new frontier shall
return as soon as the allied and as
sociated governments deem wise.

sitions and are in no way to inter
fere with measures for national de
fense taken by the government con
cerned. Regulation of Occupation.
All questions regarding occupa
tion not provided for by the treaty
will be regulated by a subsequent
convention or conventions which
will have similar force and effect.
Miscellaneous: Germany agrees
to recognize the full validity of the
treaties of peace and additional con
ventions to be concluded by the
allied and associated powers with
the powers allied with Germany;
to agree to the decisions to be taken
as to the territories of Austria
Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey, and
to recognize the new states in the
frontiers to be fixed for them.
Germany agrees not to put for
ward any pecuniary claim against
any allied or associated powers
signing the present treaty based on
events previous to the coming in
force of the treaty.
Germany accepts all decrees as to
German ships and goods made by
any allied or associated prize court.
The allies reserve the right to ex
amine all decisions of German prize
courts. The present treaty, of
which the French and English texts
are both authentic,, shall be ratified
and the depositions- of ratifications
made in Paris as soon as possible.
The treaty is to become effective in
all respects for each power on the
date ofeposition of its ratifica
