gr. former tinlte'd States Senator from

fS.iv In introducing Mr. Taft, Mr. Ayer
HJ declared: "He has been President of
j the United States, but Is bigger than
rf' that now. He Is a maker of presidents.
ml He Is one of the editors of tho Public
W, Ledger."

Baps Secret Diplomacy
"Thn flrat thtnir thrtRA whfi control n.
rovernment do Is to suppress publicity,"
ho said.
"Publicity, or rather Its suppression,
has figured lorgely In the history of our
own country and in International affairs.
The constitutional convention presided
over by George Washington conducted
Its proceedings In private. The journals
of this history-making convention re
mained under cover until 1840, when
they finally reached the State Depart
ment. The same method of cautious
i procedure was followed by the states
men In the Quebec conference that
drafted the constitution of Canada. Va
rious constituencies were interested and
It was not deemed wise to let many of
them know what was In the making
' until a full dUcussIon cleared the way
' for a flrlslied draff.
-"S3 i' Is today with the Peace Con
feren'a dally sitting In Versailles. There
was a demand from the newspapers for
a free and open meeting. What was the
result? The conferences that were
openly conducted resoUed Into formal,
cut-and-drled motions. But the things
of Importance to be done and are being
done are threshed out and digested in
secret. These things cannot be discussed
In the open nnd then spread out before
" the public. Men, who In the heat of de
bate are thus quoted, are glad to take
back their published words following a
full discussion."
Referring to Mr. Ayer, the ex-presl-dent
told the guests that they were
honoring a man who had made advertise!
lng a science. It requires reiteration,
he. Bald, to get an Idea, Into the head
of the average American citizen be
, cauie he Is too busy with the 'affairs
of life to bother much with anything
else. The psychology of advertising, he
pointed out, was to challenge the at
tention of those you desire to reach,
and having attained this, to hold It.
Four Hundred Co-workers Present
Moro than 400 Ayer employes wore
there, but not as employes. They were
there as co-workers of F. Waylandl
.Ayer,' who for fifty years has stood atl
the helm of the nation s greatest adver
tising agency.
Said Mr, Ayer: "We have learned that
advertising can do much more and big
ger things than merely to sell goods
Today advertising educates people re
garding political situations, Industrial
crises and social development. Inr these
later years there has, howover,como
what seems a marvelous recognition of
advertising as a social force."
'That advertising-pays Is not a subject
of debate, for In fifty years the IS". W.
AVer & Son Agency has placed $100,
000,000 of orders in various publications
of the United States.
In a nutshell, that, statement tells
the story of the company that last night
celebrated its fiftieth anniversary ana
promised to celebrate Us hundred 'birth

One of the surprises of the evening
came whenW. C. Freeman, represent

and the blanket of secrecy over' llio
proceedings have made It Impossible to

Just how far the Soviet boeev has
driven the peace ship will not remain
uncertain for many days, as the neces
sity ror an early pence with Germany
entails quick and specific decisions. Po
litical aspirations of the Kntente na
tions have also handled the helm, and
these have directed -the bark toward
perilous shoals at Intervals.
Tho President's chief problem has
been to keep the terms in respectable
conformity to his fourteen points, and
he has found both Kuropean politics and
the Red crisis running counter to his
purpose.
Mr. Wilson returned to a stage set for
a rigid exaction of indemnitees the cre
ation of a Rhenish republic, affording
France virtually a boundary at the
Rhine, a Polish corridor to the Baltic
and the remapping of Europe faorably
to the newvstates which the Allies In
tended to create In Central Europe un
der tho Wilson principle of self-determination.
In three days the setting has
materially changed.
Recognizing that a harsh peace would
light the fuse of Bolshevism In Germany,
the American financial experts estimated
tho total of reparations at J12.000.000,
000, and the President applauded them.
There were indications that the Ameri
can view would not prevail, but, with a
Red empire from the Rhine to Vladivo
stok becoming a possibility, the Allies
saw the expediency of slicing down their
territorial demands. The Entente pre
ferred a swap to n surrender, nnd. In
reducing territorial ambitions, has In
creased Indemnities, but not proportion
ately, for the demands of the various
nations can never approach th former
figures and still hold Teuton Bolshevism
In leash. Thirty billion Is a high maxi
mum. The. reflex move for a high Indemnity
exactly suited England, whose territorial
hook had been baited for nothing more
than the Colonial possessions which will
come under her control under the rnan-
uatory system.
Present indications are that the
treaty will leave the amount of in
demnities blank and permit this to be
set by a commission In two years, thua
avoiding the present danger of creating
opposition In the Allied nations, al
though Germany may be suspicious of
the Indefinite penalties. This plan lias
not been adopted. '

Nearly Finished
Continued from Pace One
shorn of all its diplomatic niceties, what
King Albert told the council of four
might be summarized thus:
The time of promises has passed. If
Belgium Is to live the council must act.
The Associated Press Is able to state
that three questions of vital Immediate
importance to the re-establlshment of
Belgium.' financially, economically and
politically, were discussed. The first
question was the Immediate advance to
Be'glum of about 10,000,000,000 francs;
the second, the exportation to Belgium
from Lngland and the United States of
raw materials; and the third, the cession
to Belgium of the left bank of the
Scheldt and LImburg.
After the departure of the Germans
the ministry of finance sent out an
urgent call to holders of German maiks
to deposit them In the banks. The
amount was estimated to be abdut
2,000,000,000. Belgium was not pre
pared for the avalanche of marks that
resulted. , Light billion marks passed
through the banks' windows Into the
vaults. The banks were unable to re
deem this 'amount, of t paper, and de
positors were merely given receipts,
stating that a certain amount ofmarks
were -held to their ctedlt until such
time as financial arrangements could be
made to reimburse them.
The payment, of an Immediate Indem
nity by German was relied upon to en
able repayment for these deposits. The
Indemnity thus far has failed to mate
rialize. Depositors cannot. draw against
these credits, vvlth the result that some
10,000,000,000 of francs are Idle, as the.
banks are paying no Interest on such de
posits. Allies Rush Aid

made will assure relief, but -that the
next two months will be nlleu with

.Grief, .Indignation nnd bewilderment
are the feelings expressed by the news
papers at the, revelation of the Allied
position at Murmansk, while It Is urged
that the peril of the troops Is u reason
why the Peace Conference, should settle
Its policy toward Russia without delay.
The newspapers emphasize that no steps
must be neglected to relieve the force.
Four Attacks on Allies
The Bolshevists strongly attacked the
Allied positions east of Bolshola Ozera,
on the Archangel front, four times on
March 31 and once again on April 1,
according to an official statement issued
heie. All the attacks-were defeated by
the Allied troops, which showed great
gallantry and steadiness.
A Bolshevist regimental commissary
who was taken prisoner said that the
attacks were meant .to be decisive. It
Is expected that the attacks will con
tinue while the snow "lasts, but there
are signs of a thaw.
Js'ews has reached London that a de
tachment of Admiral Kolchak's blue
rln forees has succeeded In getting In
touch with a detachment of Allied forces
in the neighborhood of Archangel. The
position of the latter la anxious, but the
Allied troops command the Murman
Railway and, consequently, the western
ports on the "White Sea, and tt Is be

Definite Deelnlonn
Among the definite declRlons made by
the supreme council since President Wll.
son's return were those for the destruc
tion ot the Helgoland fortlcatton and
the ilnternationallzatlon of the Kiel
Canal. The reference of the confisca
tion of German transatlantic cables by
England t$i the proposed league of
nations was an actual happening that
has pleased America.
So Vital Change In Leagne
With the return of the President the
league of nations plan was at once
subjected openly to the Influences which
sought to alter It. The results have been
largely negative. The French effort to
provide a Joint International army was
rejected and the Japanese proposal for
equality of the nationals of member
states similarly failed.
The President became the proponent
of an amendment safeguarding the Mon
roe Doctrine. He was reported to have
prepared this amendment and intended
to present It to the league of nations
commission on March 29, but was re
strained by the fear that such pressure
would Induce others to insist upon ob
noxious amendments. Instead, the pro
posal was put flatly up to the premiers!
UL riunwi uiwi Jfliwilll uuu iiui; iUi i
a decision that has not heen made yetJ
One or the vluil Issues that bubbled up
from Paris concerned the Inclusion ot
the league plan In the treaty to be pre
sented to the German delegates this
month. The French opposed such a sug
gestion, but Wilson's Insistence has ap
parently won this point, and It is re
ported that the terms will oury the
league plan ns a supplement, so that
Germany may subscribe to the treaty
without being entitled to membership In
tho league.
Italy and Japan have been pressing
for a general treaty with all enemy
powers, and at one time seemed to have
gained their point, but this theory has
faded ns the Bolshev Ik tlangers grew,
and a joint peace now Is Improbable.

The Socialists, In addition, retnln their
old objections to mllltntlsm and are not
enthusiastic about even the proposed

..i. ,.r...y .r ... n.r i
An exception to tne general Socialist
attitude, however. Is furnished bv the ,
Socialist war minister, Gustav NosUe,
who has expressed the opinion that. In
case of an unfavorable peace, which
he anticipates, the army must be brought
as quickly as possible to a state of I
tho highest efficiency for a new war.
A beginning should be made, In the
belief of Herr Noske, with the develop
ment of tho mllltla nnd army side by
side, with which should go a campaign
for the hardening and strengthening of
the people by altering the school courses
so ns to give the coming generation
more time out of doors and the. encour
agement of open air exercises nnd
sports.
Then, In case the time should come
when a new army must be raised for a
new war" the material for the new army
would be better than that of the old.
Ifan Hope In 1 euirue. However
Herr Xoske, who expressed these I
views to German newspapermen In ex- ,
plaining and defending the bill for a
provisional nrmy. Introduced St Weimar, '
qualified his nttltude by expressing the
hope that some form or a league of.
nations In which Germany would have
an equal right and footing ultimately
would be 'evolved nnd some at range-
ment for Alsace-Lorraine nnd other i
problems be reached with which the
Germans could be content, nn arrange
ment that would obviate another war.
He said, that. In this case, the pro
posed measures to develop a hardy out
door race would make the Germans more
efficient for peaceful pursuits than their
rivals.
Would Fight for I'rovlneeh
Should, however, France take Alsace-
Lorraine temporarily, said Herr Xoske j
