VIEWS DIFFER
AS TO POLAND
Wide Range Is Expressed in
the Council of Great
Powers
By Associated- Press
Paris, March 24.—When the coun
cil of great powers met Saturday it
was in an atmosphere of consider
able apprehension over Poland which
is in the chief subject of discussion.
This is not on account of Poland
itself but because of differences which
have arisen affecting the fundamen
tal question of nationality to which
President Wilson has given his
strong approval and also his thir
teenth "point' which called for an
independent Polish state with access
to the sea.
This last clause has introduced an
issue on which there is a wide di
vergence of views. A committee un
der the chairmanship of Jules Cam
bon, with Sir William Tyrrell as the
British member and Dr. Robert 11.
Lord as the American, has reported
the plan giving Poland this access
to the sea by means of a "corridor"
sixty miles wide running across
East Prussia. But the effect of this
concession is to place aboutl,soo,ooo
Germans within the new Poland and
to detach the eastern most part of
Prussia from Germany.
Premier Lloyd George has taken
the view that this denationalization
HAHRIBAURG TELEGRXPH
of a largo body of Germans would
cause such discontent as would be
likely to bring on another war and
it is understood President Wilson
also is not entirely satisfied with the
proposal.
New Commission Will
Consider Coal Problems
Washington, Mar. 24. Plans for
more effective co-operation between
the government and the coal indus
try with expected benefits resulting
to the general public have been sub
mitted in referendum form to the
members of the National Coal Asso
ciation, representing three-fourths of
the country's bituminous production.
The fuel administration, in making
this announcement, said the plans
were the outgrowth of conferences
held by Administrator Garfield with
coal operators and mine workers.
The plans, which the fuel adminis
tration said were submitted to Presi
dent Wilson before his return to
France, provide that during the
"period of readjustment and there
after." a commission consisting of a
member of the cabinet and represen
tatives of operators and miners shall
consider all problems affecting the
industry. The commission would act
as an advisory body in matters of
cost of production, labor conditions,
transportation and other problems.
Officials of the National Coal Asso
ciation, it was said, have urged op
erators in all producing fields to
study the proposals and advise the
association's directorate of their at
titude and wishes. The matter will
be taken up at a meeting of the di
rectors in Cleveland April 4.
WILSON RIGHT,
SAYS OBSERVER
Ilis Stand For League Beyond
Question, Is Paper's
Opinion
liy Associated Press
London, March 24.—1n the last
phase of the Paris congress the is-1
sue is whether the adoption of a!
League of Nations shall be definitely |
incorporated in the preliminary
peace declares the Observer a weekly
newspaper.
"President Wilson's stand for that
method is one of the strongest
things in his career." says the puper.
"His attitudq is full of moral shrewd
ness. If he is to give some of the
allies what they most want —Ameri-
ca's signature to a guaranteed peace
—the allies must give him what he
most wants—the league and the
main articles in its covenant.
"There is no question that he is
right. No league—no peace for long.
Without some new principle of as
sociation between peoples the set
tlement as usually projected would
not last five years. It becomes more
and more evident, in our judgment,
that President Wilson speaks for an
increasing majority of the American
people.
"Much mischief and futility would
have been saved had it been plainly
realized months ago by the allies,
without exception, that either Europe
must go thoroughly with the United
States into a new plan for a better
ordering and maintenance of pence
in the whole world tor the United
States will wash its hands of Europe.
And that would mean return, soon
er or later, of German hegemony on
the continent.
"The instant question for the as
sociated powers is to make up their
minds about what to do with Ger
many. As surely as arrogant spolia
tion by Germany in IS7I was pun
ished in 1919, so surely will vindic
tive abuse of victory recoil at some
future day upon the head of Europe.
"No political lunatic is now so
I distempered as to suppose that Ger
|many can pay the whole cost of the'
| war or for that purpose can be
'kept in a state of tribute and serf-
I dom for fifty or a hundred years."

PRESIDENT SEES
BATTLE SCENES
Visits Regions Where Some
of the Heavy Fighting
Took Place
By Associated Press
Palis, March 2 4.—President Wil
son, accompanied by Mrs. Wilson,
j Miss Benham, Mrs. Wilson's secre
tary, and Hear Admiral Grayson,
spent Sunday visiting Soissons, the
i Chemin Des Dames, Coucy I.e Cha
' teau, Chauny, Noyon, Montdidier
I and the neighboring regions. The
President followed with the great
est interest the movement of arms
| in those regions, and received a very
j vivid impression of the havoc that
had been wrought there. On his
return to Paris he said:
"The day lias been very instrue
! tive to me. It has been in many
i ways exceedingly painful, because
| what I saw was deeply distressing.
But it has enabled mo to have a
| fuller conception than ever of the
| extraordinary suffering and hard
ships of the people of France in the
baptism of cruel lire through which
| they have passed."
At one place a pleasant incident
occurred. The President's car stop
ped to get oil, and a little group of
people of the village, together with
some who had driven out from Mont
didier, gathered around the car and
chatted. The President and Mrs.
Wilson were presented with several
■■
bouquets of flowers brought by chil
dren.
The party had lunch at a half re
paired inn at Soissons. where a great
crowd of Polius gathered to greet the
President. The party also visited
the site of the "Big Bertha," which
a year ago yesterday opened fire on
Paris.
11\ FOR THE CONDUCTOR
"Is this a fast train?" asked th#
traveler of the guard.
"Of course it is." was the reply.
