Should the peace conditions be accepted Ger many no longer could call anything her own which lies outside these narrow bounds. Germany has ceased to exist abroad, but as if that were not sufficient, her cables have been taken from her and her wireless stations can send only commercial telegrams and then only under con trol of. the allies. This would sep arate us from the outer world, for what business can be done under the control of competitors need not to be described. .. "But this is far from enough. The council, therefore determines treaties between enemy countries to be null and void except such treaties whose execution is n favor of t govern ment of the allied powers. "What does President Wilson so aptly say? That the first principle of peace itself is equality, equal par ticipation in common benefits." : Herr Scheidemann, then argued that this principle had been abro gated in the peace terms. ? ; r "Conditions Unacceptable." "That is the jail picture in its ex ternal aspects; without ships be cause the mercantile fleet passes into entente hands, without cables, with out colonies, without foreign settle ments, without reciprocity and legal protection, yes, and even without the right to co-operate in fixing the prices for the goods and articles which we have to deliver as tribute. "I ask. you what honest man will say that Germany can accept such conditions.

Germany un dertakes to put into force and to publish all facts of legislation, all prescriptions and all regulations which might be necessary to insure the complete carrying out of the terms. i "Enough, , more than enough. These are some examples of the treaty stipulations in establishing which, as Herr Clemenceau yester day informed our delegation,, the en tente would be guided completely by the principles according to which the armistice and peace ne gotiations were proposed. Want to Negotiate. "We have made counter-proposals and shall make still more. With your consent we regard it as our sacred task to come to negotiations. Here and there insight and the common obligations of humanity are beginning to make themselves felt in neutral countries; in Italy and in Great Britain above all, too this is a comfort for us in this last fearful flaming up of the! policy of the mailed fist and in socialistic France voices are being heard whereby his torians one day will measure the state of humanity after four years of murder. . Herr Scheidemann thanked all those in whom the indignant heart of conscience had found expression, and added: ' "I am especially thankful for and re-echo the vow of imperishable de votion and faithfulness ringing across to us from Vienna. Stand by us in paving the way to negotia tions; leave no one in the world in doubt regarding the fact that you are one with us. . "We protest against hatred being perpetuated forever, a curse being established tor all eternity. Mem bers of the national assembly, the dignity of humanity is placed in your hands. Preserve it." Paris, May 13. The heads of two German democratic parties and the parties of the center have informed Chancellor Scheidemann that their parties will withdraw their repre sentatives from the government in case the cabinet, decides 1 to sign the peace treaty, . according to a dispatch from Berlin received here by way of Basle. , ' The socialist Vorwaerts, in com menting on this action, says it is the first step toward cabinet crisis. . PEACE TREATY NOW READY FOR THE AUSTRIANS i ' i (Continued From Fog e One.) the German treaty with the excep tion that the first clause, providing for trial of the former Emperor Wil liam, is omitted. ,The remaining clause makes provision for the trial of military offenders by an interna tional court-martial. The frontier delimitation of the new Austria presents the one seri ous issue in the drawing of the treatv. somwhat similar to that of the Sarre Valley in the German treaty. This is as regards the lower Tyrol, a section of which is de tached from Austria and placed within the bounderies of Italy. It includes the cities of Bozen and Me ran, and an estimated German popu lation of about 250,000.' Strategic Italian Frontier. The reason for , attaching this German speaking population to Italy is thj establishment of a strategic frontier giving Italy adequate pro tection front invasion from the north. The old frontier ran south of the Alps, with Italy on the down grade and Austria on the command ing heights. The new frontier re verses this, giving Italy the heights and all the defensive passages. The former status gave Austria seven lines of approach, while Italy pos sessed only one main line for mo bilizing its defenses. The new status places all these lines of approach under Italy. i As has been stated, the frontier line as drawn in the terms to be presented to the Austrians is the one laid down by the treaty of Lon don, although the treaty makes no mention of this fact. Italy sought this line as a permanent strategic defense, secured its insertion in the armistice terms and now secures its incorporation in the treaty.

' Many women escaped from the home at its old location. Charges were made that one of the doctors who examined women was collect ing moneykfor services performed at his ottice. ibis money was said to have been paid in consideration for not committing these women to the home. Then came the allegations about administering "dope" at the home, making the whole situation one which the doctor has not relished, his friends aver. On the other hand, Police Com missioner Ringer maintains an abid ing faith in the home, and yesterday offered an ordinance to more fully define the powers of the health de partment in this connection.

Police Commissioner Ringer, Dr. Manning, and Dr. Palmer Findley, head of the City Detention home, held a private conference in the city r'l last Saturday, but none of the conferees would divulge the nature of the meeting. 1 Rumors in the city hall are that Dr. Manning's resignation will be effective June 1.

HENRY FORD IS ANARCHIST, SAYS COUNSEUN SUIT Tribune Used Term Correctly, But Not in Sense of Bomb Thrower, Is Conten v -tion of Defense. Mount Clemens, Mich., May 13. When on June IS, 1916, the Chicago Daily Tribune referred to Henry Ford, the Detroit manufacturer ""as an anarchist," it did ' not use the term in the sense of a bomb thrower or nihilist, according to Attorney LHiot O. Stevenson. Mr. Stevenson, one of the coun sel for the Tribune, which is being sued here tor $1,000,000 damages by Mr. Ford on a charge of libel, made this assertion today to the talesmen in the jury box in explanation of questions he and his associates were about to ask them in regard to their fitness to serve as jurors. "It is our purpose to prove that Mr. rord is an anarchist, said Mr Stevenson. He then read from court decisions what the Tribune meant by the term, "anarchist" as defined by various authorities. Some of the definitions were "absence or insufficiency of government," state where there1 is no capable su preme government," "a believer in an archaic theory ot society. "In our view," continued , Mr Stevenson, "Mr. Ford on June 23 1916, was an anarchist in the sense that he opposed those common measures which make for a govern ment and the absence of which creates a state of anarchy." Compared to Senate. While Mr. Stevenson was defining the term "anarchist" as he said it was applied by "The Tribune" to Mr. Ford, meaning one who spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in attempting to influence the public and congress against preparedness and thus weakening the government to the point of anarchy, Alfred Lucking, for Mr. Ford interrupted hotly: "We object, your honor. Why, on that basis half the United States senate is anarchistic. We object also to the assumption that the Tribune .can create definitions of words such as anarchy. We decline to accept the Tribune as a standard for. definitions." The talesmen expressed them selves in favor of preparedness, but admitted there was room for an honest difference of opinion as to what constitutes preparedness. The gist of their answers was that Mr. ford had a right to his opinions and the Tribune had the same right. Abolish Export Restrictions. Paris, May 13. The cabinet today approved a decree abolishing all restrictions on exports, except cer tain foods and products connected directly with the reconstruction of the liberated regions. s The decree of January 20, 1919, prohibited the exportation of 140 different articles.
