Adv. INDEMNITY DEFINITELY DECIDED ON AT PARIS (Continued FroB Pass One) like thej Monroe doctrine" shall be af fected by the league. Volloyfine Imperative demands . from the British, French and .Japanese, it was agreed that the revised text be held un til, it is either submitted to a plenary ses sion of the conference or else Is embodied in the actual peace treaty. ew Draft Clarified The constitution contains 26 articles covering practically the same ground as the original document,' H r.t In - addition to the ' inclusion of the clause safeguarding' the Monroe doctrine, the language in the new draft is clari fied.'';; - ' '.; " : The Japanese made a desperate effort to secure the Inclusion of a measure for "racial equality" which' would carry with It the right of immigration. The debate, it is said, bordered at times on bitterness. However, when It developed that it would be impossible for the Japanese to enforce their claims, they did not demand a vote, but simply recorded their right to re submit their demands and move : their adoption, when a plenary session of the conference Is helcV , " -'. Opposition to Jthe Japs nese claims centered in Lord Robert Cecil of Eng land. He explained that, while - Great Britain-was willing for the league to admit all nations as equals it would be impossible for '.any power to infringe the. sovereignty and rlgbta of another ; therefore the suggestion, that "free Im migration" be carried out could not be entertained. - . . y Japaaese la.Bsd Htnor J ' The Japanese delegates were the first to leave ' the conference room. They emerged from the elevator at the Hotel Crillon . shortly 'after. 1 o'clock. . Cor respondents who attempted to question them were brusquely treated, It Is . understood that during ' the de bate the Japanese insisted as America secured exemption : of the Monroe :. doc trine it would only be fair that' the Americans should support Japan's posi tion. President Wilson wai not put: in the position of .taking any decisive at titude on account of .the , keen : opposi tion of the British : to the Japanese de mands. ;. ..-'.;..-. ' , - The French delegates pushed their de mand for the creation of a general staff to be attached ; to the League of Na tions, but lost out despite several ar dent speeches made In behalf of this claim. ' 'Friday proved the second "big day' for President Wilson. He was extremely tired when he left the meeting of the League of Nations commission, but very cheerful. ! . k "" :' :- .' "It was worth 'waiting for." ', he de clared., i. .; : . . . . ... .The acceptance of the revised consti tution means that -this document Is now ready for inclusion in the treaty when the latter its drafted next week, v How ever, the - Japanese . interests .promise further trouble later on. -j i Peace- . Believed .Nearer By . John T. Parltersoa , London. . April 12v (I. N. a) The peace treaty will be presented to the German envoys for . their ' signatures within two weeks unless unforeseen "eleventh hour? obstacles ' develop, it was learned . from a most trustworthy source today. The, treaty is ' almost ready for drafting. r , Such rapid progress has been made since Wednesday that the Itaian-Jugo Slav, dispute over, territory on, the -Adriatic is nowvthe only Important problem on hand, -' - . , . Now that It has been decided that the ex-kaiser -can be placed on- trial there is much . speculation over the steps to bo taken to get him out of Holland and 'the seat of the court where' the trial will take place, ' "-.-' J' ... ; fi-y'S' - It IS probable that the former emperor will be arraigned-before the high court of - Belgium on an indictment charging him with violating Belgium's neutrality and outraging civilized ' morality. Bel glum may be able to avenge her wrongs with her own laws. If this ts the ease, the fact will stand out before the whole world as a lesson to rulers in the future to respect the rights of small nations. Array to Rem ala oa Balae .'. The League of Nations, whose eansti tution has. finally been put tn shape for Inclusion In the treaty, will be the keeper of the-world's honor. To it will be. en trusted great problems which the peace delegates - could not decide ' offhand. Thus in the case of the Saar valley, it was decided practically to let the league govern the district for, XS years, while PERSONAL Prominent Woodman' fn City ' -R. P. Fulkerson. state deputy head consul of . the Modern Woodmen of America, was visiUng In Portland Fri day, . He is en.- rout from Chicago, where he attended the recent head camp convention.'-and will shortly be gin a tour of the state of Washington and : rlsH i every camp ; of -the order. He says:. "I met lots of returning Oregon boys in khaki uniform going and: coming. They were all boosters and none of v them were - complaining about the" mistakes , and - shortcomings over there ; but some of the Colorado and Iowa boys were . all too sore to be happy ' over what had and hadn't happened to them." - William G. UeAdoo to Visit Portland Former Secretary ' of the Treasury William Q. McAdoo has ' telegraphed tne . .Multnomah. . for reservations for himself and party upon his arrival in Portland Monday, e e Mr. and Mrs. Bender In City '. Mr. and Mrs. C. E.

They ars staying; at the Multnomah. . e Jerome Day Here From Moscow Jerome Day, one of 'the owners of the Portland hotel, is spending a few days at that institution from Moscow. Idaho, where he is interested in mines. - . Here on Lecturing Tour The Rev. Charles F. Aked of San Francisco, who was formerly connected with John D. Rockerfeller's church in New York city, is staying at the Mult nomah while lecturing in the city. Mr. Aked has given up his pastorate work In San Francisco and is now traveling throughout -the country lecturing. Will Visit Old Home Town George Huebsch, well known In retail grocery circles, will leave Monday for his old home town of Tell City, Ind where he will visit relatives and friends. He will be gone about two months. France is getting the product of the coal mines in the Saar basin. . After that time a plebiscite will be taken. In this same connection It Is pointed out that the Saar valley is now a complement to the Lor raine iron fields, and In all probability a plebiscite would give the territory ; to France " , It. is believed that a 30-mile - unarmed zone will be established on the left bank of the. Rhine In conformity to the wishes of the French, who -fear another German attack If that district is left open. The allied armies, however, will continue to occupy the bridgehead positions along the Rhine for an indefinite period. - Polish1 Qsestloa 2Tot Solved The Polish question has not yet been solved, but it is now said that the re port jthat the delegates had reconsidered the-Question of giving Danzig to Poland was - premature. Strong1 influences are working in that direction. - Belief is current in some circles that the big four may soon announce a defi nite policy towards Russia. It Is pot believed that It will take the form of recognition of the soviet government at Moscow, but will be a formal statement to the effect that, if the Bolshevik regime can convince the League of Na tions that it represents the Russian peo ple, will not Interfere with other forms of government, - will - preserve law , and order and ' will recognize lawful Inter national obligations, it may, after a time, obtain a serious hearing. While the' big four are working on the plan of a general treaty for Ger many, Austria, Bulgaria and Turkey it Is not Improbable that. If a hitch oc curs n the settlement of the ' Adriatic dispute or over the boundaries of Tur key,: a treaty may be made with Ger many alone. The Italians, are opposing; this, so the question remains open. French Voice Dissatisfaction Paris, April 12. (L N. S.) Strong dis satisfaction was expressed by the French press today over the League of Nations decisions. The papers complain that all of the French demands ; were received with disfavor. V j - The Journal declares that it Is "impos sible to ha ye a League of Nations of a practical character." i . w .r - Protests were made also over the fact that Geneva was selected as th.seat of the league, instead of Brussels. i ' .
