Opinion Held by Several
of tho Delegate.
By Fred 8. Fi-rguion
(United PreM Sun Correspondent.)
PARIS, Jan. 28. The supreme
war council, continuing its sessions,
Is expected to take up the disposi
tion of the German colonies. The
"bureau," as the council is now offi
cially designated, Is understood to
feel that an early decision on terri
torial questions Is necessary In
drawing up . a preliminary peace
treaty which will permit of demobil
ization. Several delegates are known to
favor immediate settlement ot the
more pressing territorial problems,
instead of waiting for these to be ad
Justed by the league of nations. In
addition to its effect on demobiliza
tion, the delegates are Influenced In
this view by the fact that certain im
portant industries are awaiting the
announcement of a definite terri
torial program.
It is also pointed out that the situ
ation for the populations affected is
serious.
