KarJ Radek. the leading Russian bolshevik agent in Germany, who wu arrested on February 13 in connection with the epartacan uprising, has been released by the German government, according to-a Berlin dispatch today.

A demon titration "against violation of German territory under the peace treaty." was held in Berlin Sunday in front of the residence of President Ebert. After the meeting the crowd went to the Hotel Adlon. where most of the entente commissions in Berlin are quar tered. Seeing American officers, they mistook them for British and shouted "Down with England." BERLIN. March 23. (By the Asso elated Press.) The Berlin press from the extremely radical to the most de cidedly conservative, sees in events in Hungary a terrible warning to the entente. This is the view taken, for instance, by the two extreme examples of Die Freiheit and the Tages Zeitung. Dire Results Predicted. "Entente Imperialism," says the lat ter newspaper, "assisted bolshevism into the saddle in Russia by the frus tration of Kerensky's peace plans. , It now has raised bolshevism in Hungary out of the depths of its impotence. If these two lessons should not suffice. a third would carry terrible conse luences Into the entente lands." ? PARIS CONFERENCE SILENT f rartnued From First Pae:e. Jdse and Knox and the main points of the recent debate between Senator Lodge and Dr. Lowell are being gone over In shaping these changes. The official statement issued after the meeting of the supreme war council, from 4 to 6 o'clock this afternoon, made jio mention of the Hungarian situation. The only reference to the situation in eastern Europe was the announcement that American proposals concerning the powers of the Teschen commission. which concerns Poland and Cxecho Slovakia, were adopted.

Italians Answer Jugo-Slavs. The peace conference commission on Czecho-Slovak affairs held a meeting today to consider further questions which have arisen because of develop ments in the former Austro-Hungarian empire. The Italian delegation to the peace conference today presented to the su preme council a report in answer to the arguments advanced by the Jugo-Slavs in a recent memorandum respecting the territorial claims in dispute with Italy. COPENHAGEN, March 24. Germany cannot and will not sign a peace which involves .the annexation of Danzig by Poland, President Ebert declared in a speech Sunday, a dispatch from Berlin says. Ebert Given Opinion. The German president added that Germany could not give up West Prus sia or part of upper Silesia. Ebert spoke at a meeting called to protest against the annexation of Danzig by Poland. He declared that Germany was prepared to agree to the ! neutralization of the Vistula, which would Include Danzig as a free port. . PARIS PRESS SEES DAXGEB Peace Delegates Warned Not to Dally With Minor Problems. PARIS, March 24. (By "the- Asso ciated Press.) The situation is as serious as that which arose when the congress of Vienna learned of Na poleon's return from Elba. "Today as a hundred years ago, negotiators have provoked and have been surprised by destiny," writes St. Brice in the Journal. The problem before the council of ten today is not the fate of the Ger man cables or the Eeschen commis sion, but the Imperative necessity of having Poland and Roumania rebuild the watertight compartment which has collapsed, he continues. "Otherwise Germany, declaring herself alone in a position to save western civilization. will lay down her own peace terms instead of those the allies propose to dictate to her. or will threaten to take the lead in the bolshevik movement." This extract from an editorial ac curately reflects the views of the for eign editors of French newspapers. They all generally agree in placing the principal blame for the events on the procrastination of the peace con ference and in insisting upon imme diate steps to fight bolshevism. DELAY PEACE VVDRK Conference Takes Step Back ward as Unrest Grows. SITUATION NOW ALARMING BARRETT MAKES SUGGESTION League Urged to Recognize Union of American Republics. NEW TORK. March 24. A proposal to safeguard the Monroe doctrine in the league of nations by inserting in the league covenant a clause recogniz- ng the international union of American republics has been made to the Ameri can delegates at the peace conference. John Barrett, director-general of the Pan-American union, announced here today. He declared that the American nations organizations formed 30 years ago and credited with preventing "sev eral andposslbly many American wars" might well bear to the league a rela tion similar to that of a state legis- ature to congress and be entrusted to 'care completely for American ques tions. . German Signature to Treaty Dally Grows Less Probable Because of Paris Attitude. BY HERBERT BATARD SWOPE. (Copyright by the New York World. Pub lished by Arrangement.) PARIS, March 23. (Special Cable.) With irrltaticjp over delay manifesting itself more plainly every hour, with the news of bolshevik success In Hungary pointing a direct moral, with unrest throughout the world growing In In tensity, the peace conference took a step backward lasl jiight when It be came known that the French had form ulated new objections to the execution of the British agreement whereby Ger many was to be rationed. As a result the flow of food into that country has been held up and. if conditions are not cured immediately, serious results are feared. The, matter has been thrown back to the supreme war council for considera tion on Monday. France's reluctance to going further at this time arises through her insist ence that exports from Germany should bejimited and priority of delivery should be accorded the allies, wno snouts nave the right to fix the prices they are to pay for such exports as they take. There is a further question of payment in francs and lires, which would compel Germany to make good the loss in ex change or throw the loss upon the American purveyors. Situation Becomes Serious. A member of the American commis sion, who is a shrewd observer, said to me tonight that he believes France has come to the conclusion that her safety rests in permitting disintegration of Germany and that she is pursuing that policy by delays and objections. He dif fers from the wisdom of this view ana contracts, copyright and other matters of a commercial nature. Last night one member of the con ference saja that the attitude in Paris was having its reflex in Germany and that the German signature to a peace treaty was growing less probable each day, because if she signed she would be. .in her people's eyes, accpting slav ery which would bring on bolshevism, and if she did not sign, she would be thrown into bolshevism any way. It may be that, after all, the military terms will be submitted to the Germans secretly before further delays in other phases are encountered. ' There is a lack of unity and absence of progress that has become marked in the last three days and it is reacting gravely upon the whole body of the Paris proceedings. A shakeup is need ed, in the opinion of all who are con versant with the situation here. FOSSIL CLUB REORGANIZES Movement Started to Secure Success of Road Bond Issne. FOSSIL, Or., March 24.

BT WILLIAM COOK. Copyright br- the New Vork World. Pub lished by Arrangement.) PARIS, March 23. (Special Cable.) The last week's work of the peace con ference is bitterly commented upon by the French press today. What was to have been a week of most decisive re sults is termed a week of dalay. Influ- ntiai newspapers remind me aeiegaies that "time is pressing in the face of an enemy daily becoming more arrogant." The French people, after reading the results of the discussions before the council of ten, despairingly throw up their arms and ask when they will have tangible proof that the' allies are victors. Le Matin, bitterest of the commen- tors, remarks: "132 days have passed ince the armistice was signed and the peace conference has not yet solved any problem in any definite manner. The supreme council has not yet been able to draw up resolutions which would have shown the enemy that the capitulation of November 11 was to bear 'rufts. The German people be come reassured, public opinion in al- i lied countries becomes unnerved. "We are not throwing stones at any om in particular, but we have the right to ask, in the name of public opinion, that the people have without delay proof th-t their victory is a reality. It is true that ti.e peoples do not want any more war, the only way to satisfy this legitimate wish is by giving them peace which the enemy could not disturb or render inefficient.' rest of the world, and particularly France, will travel the same road. Tonight the general situation is seri ous and it would be foolish to attempt to disguise the fact. The council of ten talked Poland this morning and arose still talking. With out definitely approving the new boun daries, though the correspondents here were informed that approval had been given to the subcommittee's report giv ing a corridor between the Polish fron tier and Danzig to the new Polish na tion. This afternoon the league of nations committee discussed the constitution of the league, with President Wilson pre siding. The first seven clauses were gone over and suggestions made as to new terminology, but no point was of Importance. An amendment by the Swiss regarding the preservation of sovereignties and several alternative drafts on this point were discussed at length. Tonight the statement was made that President Wilson purposed to gain the views of the committee as to the wisdom and necessity of includ ing a -Separate reference to the Monroe doctrine, but no on ii authority expects this to be done, as the belief is general that it is sufficiently covered in section 10. Those best informed say that no further amendments need be expected, while others say certain changes may be made- that will appease American opposition. Lack of Unity Marked. The World's editorial on the Lodge Lowell debate on the subject of presi dential rights in treaty making was circulated among the conferees to show how the Republican senator had com pletely reversed his position, and to in dicate the United States senate views of privileges. The conference this week will estab lish the future relations of Germany to the rest of the world on such subjects as tariffs, after-war contracts, pre-war as to the conditions under which the offer was made. Several British firms and one of two individuals are reported to have entered for this prize, but the general belief here is that none of these will be able to make the start in advance of the naval planes. Each Plane Has Three Motors. Lieutenant John H. Towers is in command of the preparations being made at Rockaway Beach. Each of the three seaplanes there is equipped with three liberty motors, having 1000 to 1200 combined horsepower. Experi ments are now being made in the ar rangement of --the motors, but it is believed that the final choice will pro vide for two tractor, or pulling' pro pellors and one "pushing" propeller. There will be four liberty motors in the fourth plane, now under construc tion and these will be arranged in the so-called "tandem type," two tractor and "two pusher" motors. Speed of the first three seaplanes has been estimated by the builders, at 100 miles an hour and it is .said at least qne of the planes has made approxi mately, that speed in trial flights. Gasoline Capacity Increased. The original gasoline consumption provided for a sustained flight of 16 hours, but changes in the design of the hull interior have allowed for increased storage space substantially increasing the gasoline capacity. The changes in original design con template lowering the pilots' station nearer the pontoon, so as to facilitate and render less dangerous the changing or pilots In flight. The machines have wing spread of approximately 126 feet, six inches and the wings are 12- feet wide. It Is believed that each plane will carry a minimum crew of six men, two of whom will be pilots and the others mechanics and observers.

(Cnpriht by ttie Nw Torlc World Pub lished by Arrangement with .the London llly Sen.l ROME. March 1. (Special Cable.) Italy intend to solve the extremely acute coal famine by demanding coal from Germany by way of indemnity. This Information cornea from official sources. Italian national industries will be entirely paralyzed unless coal Is ob tainable in large quantities. British exports of coal here are quite Insuffi cient and French exports have ceased. The government hoped that American coal, which had been offered, would solve the problem, but transport tolls make American coal delivered at Genoa, dearer than the British, which is now selling- here at 140 a ton. The entire lack of ship further com plicates matters. Hence negotiations with American con! firms have been suspended until tne question of ob taining German coal as indemnity is examined.
