WORK ON GERMAN PEACE ADVANCES Hughes Hopes Soon to Issue Information on Present Status. j Secretary of State Hughes hopes. within a few days, to make an anj nouncement on negotiations which have been going on for weeks bej tween the I". S. and Germany to fix a peace basis. j Whether this announcement will , disclose completion of the separate | treaty bcint; worked out between i the U. S. and Germany, or whether ill will merely enuncate provisions ' upon which the proclamation of peace with Germany is to be promulgated pending: completion of the treaty itself, is not yet decided. The administration is anxious to i have a definite peace basis estab; liahed, but has not wishedu to issue i the peace proclamation until negotiations with Germany had reached a point where all American interests were safeguarded. This, it is stated, might be effected by signing a preliminary pact between the ! 17. S. and Germany, after which the detailed treaty, embodying, as it does, about SO per cent of the economic provisions of the treaty of Versailles, finally could be worked cut and submitted to the V. S. Senate for approval. HUGHES TO FIGHT ALL PROPAGANDA AT ARMS PARLEY CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE. ings at Paris was one of the things which permitted such a deluge of misinformation, insinuations and other propaganda to emerge from that conference. There the French press was extremely active and v its propaganda work reached such proportions that on one occasion President Wilson supported in spirit by Premier Lloyd George, let it be known that if the barrage of misinformation did not cease In the French press, he would advocate moving the conference to some other city. ^fr. Wilson, while seeing all of the American press occasionally in Paris, and usually available for Information to those correspondents who were attached to his party on the trip, did not have the time to keep pace with the inspired stories given out In foreign quarters. Lacked Real lafenaetiea. The other American'peace delegates met the press regularly but Secretary Lansing, as spokesman, seldom knew what was going on In the deliberations of the "Big Four" and these conferences proved of little service. American Information furnished at Paris was, therefore, to a large degree, second or , third hand and frequently was obtained from foreign sources.
