and who reaenta. aa doea his country,
wbat ia regarded aa a persistent bu
subsurface policy to minimise her in

Orieatal Delegate lawered.
The affronts referred to lie in the
fact that after attending a meeting of
the council of ten and one meeting of
what later became a council of four.
Baron htaklno aince baa been ignored
and haa bad no participation In the af
fairs of the ruling body of the confer
ence. The second indignity waa the
defeat of the amendment to the league
of nations covenant providing against
racial discrimination.
Italy and, Bolshevism have been up
to jiow the two menacing phases of the
work of the peace conference, but now
a third ia added to the danger list i
the form of the Japanese question. Del
egates of th Island Empire have said
little and have done nothing, but they
have observed everything, and when
thrr are ready they will move In de
lermlned fashion.
laiaaedlate Deelalea Demanded.
Not a word has been said on the
subject of Japanese claims in China
growing- ont ot the war with Germany,
yet these questions must be settled be
fore the treaty ia ready for the enemy
commissioners and Japan purposes in
sisting that the definition of the attl
tude of the peace conference towards
these claims be made immediately.
She is less inclined to be forbearing
after Friday night's meeting of the
league ot nations commission which
left a bigger stain on her honor, as she
vlewa it. than haa been inflicted since
Perrr and Town send Harris brought
her western civilization.
New light Is breaking on the league
of nationa Incident light that isn't at
all pleasant in what it shows and less
in what it promises. The vote that
defeated the amendmeent was 11 for
it, with six either against or not vot
inc. These six were President Wilson
and E. XL House for the United States;
Lord Robert Cecil, for Great Britain,
and delegates from Brazil, Foland and
Koumanla.
Mack Irrltatloa la Kelt.
The last two are absolved br Japan,
for it realized that the question of
Jewish equality may have affected
their positions, although Japanese feel
that if tho league ia at all what it
purports to be a real society of man
kind, actuated by desire to avoid and
eliminate war- then, the primary tenet
should be equality of races and reli
gions. In that they show keener ap
preciation of the spirit of the league
than do certain other members.
But while they realize the reasons ot
Toland and Roumania, they can tee no
reason for the roles played by the other
three and these are sources of deep Ir
ritation that would be unwise to deny.
By clever parliamentary practice the
six who did not approve of the amend
ment escaped being put In the position
of outrightly opposing the Japanese
amendment.
Mllswa Severely Crltlrtaed.
rresident Wilson, who was in the
chair, asked those In favor of the mo
tion to bold up their hands. 11 did so.
There were 17 present, so the six who
did not Indicate their approval of the
amendment can technically assert that
they did not vote against it- But, on
the other hand, they did not vote for It.
President Wilson haa been severely
criticised for what Is called his re
versal of ruling. Earlier in the even
ing be declared that Geneva had been
chosen aa the seat of the league, al
though the vote was not by any means
unanimous. Tet be declared the Japan
ese amendment lost, although it got
precisely the same vote as did the
Geneva proposal. No explanation of
thia two-edged decision haa been made.
There Is a well-authenticated atory,
and one which the Japanese accept
without reservation, to the effect that
a deal was made between the United
States and Britain on the Japanese
question. Under it the United States
was to oppose the amendment against
which Lloyd GeorKe stood hard in order
to placate Premier Hughes of Austra
lia, who was becoming disaffected by
the premier's ahilur-ahally policy on
reparations. In return Great Britain
was to withdraw her eleventh-hour ob-
.ti'o&cuaed ea 1'as a. Column .).
BIG FOUR ALONE TO
GIVE TREATY TO FOE
OTHER ALLIED POWERS WILL
SOT ATTEXD FIRST SESSION.
Germans Scheduled to ArrlTe
Versailles Sight ot April 23.
Huns Denied Discussion.
PARIS. April 17. (By the Associate
Press.) The procedure on the arrival
of the German plenipotentiaries at Ver
sailles has virtually been decided upon.
It will be President Wilson and the
premiers who will hold the first meet
ing and deliver the treaty, as it is not
deemed feasible to have all the allied
powers attend this initial session.
The actual arrival of the Germans at
Versailles, It is stated. Is scheduled for
Fridsy night, April 25. but the meet
ing with the president and preral .rs
will not be held until Saturday and
may even be deferred until Monday.
After the treaty Is actually delivered,
it Is intended to allow adequate time
for the Germans to make inquiries con
cerning the various details before re
turning to Weimar. This is expected
to take about two days, the first day
being devoted by the Germans to famil
iariaing themselves with the terras
and the second day to answering such
Inquiries as they may make.
There is no purpose to have thlr as
sume the character of a discussion, but
merely the elucidation of any points
which may assist in obtaining prompt
and favorable action when the pleni
potentlaries return to Weimar.
It is believed the stay of the pleni
potentiaries at vV?imar will cover
week, thus bringing them back to Ver
sailles about May I to 10. This, how
ever, is conjectural, for it Is dependent
upon the rapidity of the decisions
reached at Weimar.
Premier Lloyd George's declaration in
the British parliament that full guar
antees had been given France against
renewal of German attacks is the
first authoritative statement that auch
guarantees have been given and aroused
the keenest discussion regarding the
nature of the guarantees aa affecting
the United States and Great Britain.
The French reports say that the guar
antees amount to an alliance and the
semi-official Temps says:
'Premier Lloyd George's language
admits of only one meaning. This is
that Great Britain and the United
States engage to sustain France in case
she is again attacked by Germany.
Such an alliance is legitimate and nec
essary. Mr. Lloyd George would not
pronounce such words lightly and his
announcement is singularly instruc
tive," .
The council ef four, which framed
the guarantees as part of the Rhine
kvitlement. has thus far maintained a
rigid silence except for the rxneral
declaration of Mr. Lloyd George-
Viscount Chinda of the Japanese del
egation arranged today for his appear
ance before the council of four Satur
day on the Kiao-Chau Juestion with a
view to an adjustment with ' China
which shall be Incorporated In the
peace treaty. The American delegates
believe that an accord will be reached
whereby China will ultimately control
Klao-Chau. with suitable recognition
of Japan's efforts.
A plenary session of tho peace con
ference will be held two days next
week, Wednesday ' and Thursday, to
pass upon a large number, of remain-
ng details before the meeting with
the Germans.

WASHINGTON. April 17. During the
battle of the Somme in 1916 the British
army used 4.000,000 rounds of ar
tillery ammunition; according to a sta
lstical announcement published today
by the war department. This is the
largest number or shells used in any
Ingle engagement so far as records
show.
Second In amount of artillery am
munition used was the battle of Mes-

MILITARY SYSTEM DEFENDED
Means for Enforcing Discipline
Held Essential.
LESSON IS ALL-IMPORTANT
System Credited With Producing
"Best Disciplined Army in Eu
rope" Under Investigation.'
WASHINGTON, April 17. The system
of military jurisprudence is designed
to produce an efficient, dependable
fighting army, not to do exact jus
tice to individual soldiers, according
to the views vigorously presented today
to the committee of the American Bar
association by army officers of field
experience, including Major-General
Edwin F. Glenn, organizer and com
mander of the 83d division, now in
command of Camp Sherman.
In attaining that objective, tho of
ficers contended, the present machinery
for enforcing military discipline had
proved both efficient and fair, the final
product of the system closely approxi
mating justice to the individual in ad
dition to producing what General Glenn
described as the best disciplined army
in France.
Absurd Sentences Admitted,
Cases of court-martial sentences so
excessive in the penalty awarded as to
be ridiculous were freely admitted by
the officers. Such sentences only
served, General Glenn insisted, to prove
that even in the early stages of military-legal
proceedings, the action of
the courts in no case being final, fair
ness was the general rule.
Judge Gregory, chairman of the com
mittee, and General Glenn engaged in
considerable argument which brought
out that the officer, speaking both from
his military experience and his special
training -n civil law as a graduate of
the law school of the University of
Minnesota, saw little in common be
tween the purposes of civil justice and
its military equivalent.
Exact Justice Not Aim.
Major Charles H. MacDonald, Gen
eral Glenn's divisional judge advocate
at Camp Sherman, and before the war an
Attorney for the federal trade commis
sion, followed his chief and expressed
the same views.
'You are not looking for exact jus
tice," Major MacDonald declared, "when
you are building an army of the size
of that the United States was build-
ng. Suppose men did get sentences of
!0 years or 40 years. The dishonor

(Copyright by the New York World. Pub
lished by Arrangement.)
PARIS, April IS. (Special cable.)
An informative report on the financial
capacity of the enemy to meet demands
for reparation was presented tonight
by the subcommittee on reparations.
This is one of tbe reports on final
terms of reparations which was filed
in a dispatch by Mr. Swope a week ago,
and was suppressed under such scan
dalously underhand conditions by the
supposedly non-existent British cen
sorship. As Premier George will already have
made his speech in parliament before
this dispatch can be published, the
same motive cannot exist for sup
pressing this document as undoubtedly
actuated the suppression of Mr.
Swope's important and illuminating
dispatch.
German. Resources Considered.
If the British press bureau, as is al
leged by Premier George, spokesman
here, was responsible for withholding
the preceding dispatch from publica
tion, the promised extinction of that
department on April 30 will have been
preceded immediately by one of the
most typically dishonest and most
stupid acts for which its inglorious
career has been' "notorious.
In estimating what Germany can pay
within "the period ' of say .,18 months
from tho time of the preliminary peace,
the subcommittee had to consider the
practicability of the liquidation of as
sets in that' period, including invest
ments in the securities of foreign gov
ernments. Some time will be needed
to find purchasers for these and for
enemy enterprises abroad.
Early Payments Katimated.
Taking those circumstances into ac
count, the subcommittee found that in
18 months from the time of the pre
liminary peace Germany can probably
pay 20,000,000,000 marks, of which 3,200,-
000.000 marks will be in specie.
Of course the committee recom
mended that the enemy states should
restore all property stolen from allied
territory and hat when this property
is not recoverable from any cause. Its
equivalent may be taken, whether in
use or not.
This would cover rolling stock, tools.
cattle, timber, machinery and other
property. Allied property destroyed
or worn out, as in the case or live
stock consumed, would come in the
same category of restitution.
The work of dealing with this mat.
ter is to be entrusted to an inter-allied
commission, while national commis
sions will also be sent into enemy coun.
tries to select and remove articles com.
ing under the different categories, these
commissions working in- co-ordination.
Raw Materials Studied.
The highly important question as to
how far the enemy will be able to make
reparation payments by the export of
raw materials, such as coal, potash,
machinery, dyes, leather goods and
other commodities, was also carefully
considered by the sub-committee.
This intricate question, as well as
the amount of reparation the enemy
can provide over a period of years sub
sequent to 1919-1920, is to be referred
to an inter-allied commission, which
will hear evidence as to the financial
capacity of the enemy states and will
fix the amounts, collating them with
the claims by the various allied states.
Coal Needed In France.
This proposal was adopted In the
final report, which was cabled by Mr.
Swope on April 10, but suppressed by
the British, as was also the suggestion
that the commission should not regard
the financial capacity of the enemy
states as falling short of the amount
of the approved claims to reparation.
until the enemy powers should have
mposed on their subjects taxation per
head for service at least as heavy as
the highest taxation imposed by an al
lied power upon its subjects.
The sub-committee pointed out that
France needs 30.000,000 tons of coat an
nually to replace the lost output of
her mines. French experts report that
Germany can export 60,000.000 tons an
nually, valued at more than 1,600.000,
000 marks.
Germany's Capacity to Grow.
It is also suggested that the enemy
powers should be required to hand over
from time to time manufactured goods,
livestock and raw materials, the value
f which would be deducted from the
claim of the allied, country receiving
such goods.
Final terms also embodied the prin-
Iple recommended by tho subcommit
tee that it is wiser to fix the amounts
in excess of the resources of the en
emy countries tnan to name a sum
within their ability to pay without ex
traordinary effort, bearing especially
in mind the probability of substantia? '
