Brland's Xante T Mot Fre quently Mentioned, bnt None Meet Public Expectation. PT HERBERT BAT ART SWOPE. (Copyright by the New York World. Tub liatied by Arrange me nt.i PARIS. Feb. 0. (Special Cable.) When Premier Georges Clemenceau was shot the world's peace was stagrpercd. Although the would-be assassin's bullet did not Kill the Tiger the effect upon France is even more serious than upon her leader, however light the surgeons may report the wound to be. for France is suffering from the weipht of four years of invasion and hardship and is nervous and unsettled. This stroke at her strongest figure is a double blow at her very heart. Her condition reacts directly upon the progress of the peace conference. The confidence that' "the country f t-lt under the hand of .the, premier is. miss ing, and she. feels herself, under the necessity of going slowly- for fear of making mistakes. If Premier Clemenceau should die, who will succeed him? Search for avail able candidates reveals few, if any, who command public faith in a degree at all comparable to that which the premier possesses. M. Brian d'a name is most frequently heard in this relation. Andre Tardieu is also mentioned. Albert Thomas is In the list, but it may be doubted if the bourgeoise or French in general is ready to make such conces sion at this time to radical socialism, i M. Klotz also is mentioned, but his association with financial interests is scarcely calculated to bring him sup port based on public trust. The premier's incapacity comes at an awkward moment in relation to two matters of prime importance, one of them dealing with Russia and the other with reparation. 1 can say positively that the Russian conference plan has taken on new life, and that meetings will begin at Prinkipo even though no Russians may atumd them except tht bolshevik. The matter of reparations reveals an impasse as to the construction of the term "reparation." upon which the principle of German payment rests. I The committee in charge of the work has sent a wireless message to Presi dent Wilson asking for his definition of the term as used in his 14 points of peace, and at the same time it has referred the quest ion to the supreme interallied council, which accepted the 14 points, with . reservations as to reparation and. jls to freedom of the s eas. America's position ip opposed to those of both Great Britain and France, whose demands cover full costs of the war and amends for ail damage in flicted, while our claims are confined to actual damages, under the com mittee's definition of President Wil son's precept. Arguments have con tinued for two weeks and no solution seems near. American --members stress the fact that they lo not oppose fuil demand.- on Germany. Dut they are are averse to asking amounts beyond the pos sibility of actual payment. For in that rase Germany might throw her hand on the table ami refuse to take part in the gsme. Then the necessity would he created of trying to collect by force, a course that would require im mense armies, and would he tanta mount to continued state of war for years to come, with little pros pec t of accomplishing the purpose at the end of the effort. The British are conrmttted to ex treme claims by e Vet ion pledges and bv recent utterance in the house of commons, wh ile the French au thorl ties have promised their people a mounts that are hardly within t he realm of possibility.
