Repudiation of ?W?son Pledges U.S. Feared _ ?Grave Concern Felt in Paris Lest Senate Opposition Will Force Reshaping of World Programme France Takes Precautions pleasures Will Be Planned To Secure Frontiers in Event of Non-Approval By Frederick Moore New York Tribune Special Cable Service (Copyright, 1919, New York Tribune Inc.) PARIS, May 10.?Although for the moment the matters immediately be? fore the peace conference are attract? ing the greatest attention?namely, the settlement with Germany and Italy, and after that the treaties with Aus? tria, Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey?a a question of gravest concern in the J inner circles of the conference is i whether President Wilson, having effected the shaping of the treaty with j Germany according to his desires, still j will be able to obtain American ap- ; proval of the pledges he has tentatively given; for it is evident that unless America is willing to play the part the President has outlined for her much reshaping of national and inter? national programmes throughout the world will have to take place. At first the French spokesmen re? fused to accept Mr. Wilson's ideas re? garding frontiers in any respect unless the British and American governments were pledged to the future security of these frontiers, whereupon the Presi? dent did the best the American Con? stitution permits?that is to say, he gave his promise to use his influence with the Senate on his return to Wash? ington. French Ready to Act If this guarantee is not ratified, ns many of the delegates here fear it will not be, the French government, no mat? ter who may then be premier, probably will take measures to secure the Rhine frontiers before Germany has time to recover her military power. The fact that there will be no se? curity for France without the establish? ment of Russia as a military or poten? tially military power independent of Germany, and the fact that President Wilson has shown no sign of relent? ing in an attitude which seemingly favors the Bolsheviki, are other fac? tors which cause France to doubt the security afforded by the league of na? tions, which the President persuaded them to accept only on conditions which many of the delegates?not French alone?doubt he will be able to fulfil. The fact that Senator Lodge and other prominent Americans, according to cable dispatches received here, al? ready are complaining of Article X in the covenant is disconcerting to both American and Ailied statesmen supporting the leaguue. The delegates of the Allied powers, in duelling with President Wilson, have, much to his annoyance, at times insisted on shap? ing the treaty and the covenant with a view to America's refusal to support the projects or, after accepting the letter of the covenant, to permit it to go the way- of T?e Hague Conven? tion . Britain Secured Position Italy took this view, her delegates preferring naval control of the Adri? atic against a possible hostile coali? tion in Southeastern Europe to the guarantees promised by the league of nations. Although the delegates of the United Kingdom, both practical and idealistic, sought a league including America, be? lieving that such a league offered a secure hope of permanent peace, all insisted on annexing the adjacent Ger? man colonies. Australia and New Zealand, for instance, preferred oc ' cupation of Germany's Pacific islands j south of the Equator to league guar- ! antees against possible future expan- ? sion by the Japanese southward. The Japanese, for their part, bc ing unable to persuade the British, French, Americans and othcr3 to re? tire from their lodgements in China, and desiring outlets for their rapidly increasing population, preferred recog? nition of Japan's established position in Shantung?which, incidentally, es? tablishes her position elsewhere in the Far East?to pooling Shantung with the German Pacific islands and other possessions to come nominally under control of the league. Mandate Not Satisfactory The device of a mandate for Shan- ; tung, like that obtained by the British j colonies for their respective annexa- ; tions, did not satisfy the Japanese. Thus, each of the Allied powers has j insisted on settlement? which will serve as practical solutions, or which can be converted into such in case the league foils. All the minor powers have like? wise endeavored to shape their frontiers to that possibility. It has amazed many observers that President Wilson, being able to promise for the United States so little, never? theless insisted with such audacity on relegation to the league of the strategic defences which the various powers re? quire. Great Britain and other states have been endeavoring in recent weeks to obtain from him a statement regard? ing the mandates which many desire America to assume?primarily for Con? stantinople ? but the President again cannot pledge the United States, and the only response to any of the appeals obtained from hirn has been the inser? tion in the covenant of the clause pro? viding that no nation ?hall be required to annum? a mandato contrary to its will. Fears that the league may be devital By ized by America herself are causing much concern in Paris, and serious de? velopments, to the French in the first instance, may result from further im? pairment by the American Senate of the covenant and refusal to sanction Mr. Wilson's tentative guarantee of the French frontiers. The fear prevails everywhere in Paris that the league may be still-born, but there is a determination among many British as well as American statesmen to make it successful. Austria Divorced From Germany for Long Time Treaty Provides Separation Shall Be "Inalienable" Un? less Approved by the League PARIS, May 10 (By The Associated Press).?The portion of the German treaty which has not as ye* been made public, contains a provision that Ger? man Austria's separation from Ger ! many shall be "inalienable," unless ap ! proved by the council of the league | of nations. The use of the word "in : alienable" is for the purpose of set? tling the question, not only for the pres ? ent, buv for a long period. The question of the reparations that i must be made by Austria-Hungary was i considered yesterday by President Wil ! son and Premiers Lloyd George and j Clemenceau. They also discussed the 1 question of financing Germany, ! Austria-Hungary, Poland and other ! smaller European states. Paris Talks of Coup to Seize Power for Focli Marshal's Speech at Secret Plenary Session of Parley Causes Speculation as to Aims of Military Party By Frederick Moore New York T.-lbuve Sj>i rial Cable Service (Copyright. ?919. New York Tribuno Ine.) PARIS, May 10.?The speech of Mar? shal Foch on Tuesday before the secret plenary session of the peace conference, when he complained that the treaty as drawn diii :oc sufficiently guarantee security :i .'anee, has started specu? lation hc? i . to the aims of what may be called t ? French military party. According to information from vari? ous sourc Foch's speech was un? authorized i unexpected by Premier Clemenceau. After the meeting Foch is said to have asked Clemenceau his opinion of the speech and the observa? tions therein. Foch, it is said, re? ceived this curt reply: "I am unable to say until I have con? sulted other members of the govern? ment." Speech Not Expected The fact that Marshal Foch was not a delegate to the conference, and there? fore not entitled to speak, made his uninvited statement all the more xin usual. The opinion is also held that Foch's complaints were ill judged, in view of the favorable attitude of Lloyd George toward an alliance with France and President Wilson's promise to place before the United States Senate a proposition looking toward an alli ence between France and America guar? anteeing to France security against aggression. Foch's speech, following his long un? authorized interview in "The London Daily Mail" and other incidents, sug? gest that he has a political purpose in view. Back of Foch is General Wicgand, Foch's chief of staff and adviser throughout the war. It is believed that whatever Foch might lack in political equipment Wiegand might be ready to supply. At the present time, as the conclu? sion of the treaty is satisfactory to France in most particulars, there is little likelihood of Clemenceau's gov? ernment going out of office. However, it is the general opinion among the French that Clemenceau won't be in office many weeks after the signing of the treaty, and if he doesn't resign be? fore the introduction of necesary taxa? tion measures which will shock the country with their severity he will fall on the taxation issue. Socialists May Control The situation, then, is likely to be? come confused, with the possibility of a radical Socialist controlling for a period. But the French Socialists have so little intelligence and governing abil? ity that they will inevitably make blun? ders, some of which may be bad enough to convince the French, who are al? ready skeptical about the efficiency of their government, to support a coup by the military party. The question is now being asked whether Foch is being groomed by Wic? gand and others around him for the I leadership of the nation should such a combination of circumstances arise. Marshal Foch's speech last Tuesday i before the secret plenary session of j the peace conference has not been ; made public in detail, it is known only that the marshal declared that I the security given France by the | peace treaty was inadequate and that | it was his personal conviction that the -_-_ ?--?" . . -. - .

France Left Unsecured* Is Paris Critic's View ! Thirty-Mile Military Demilitari? zation Zone on the Rhine Held To Be No Protection PARIS, May 10.?The military clauses I of the peace treaty do not give France any security, in the view of Henri i Bidou, the military critic of the "Jour I nal des D?bats." He says they give ' France the frontier of 1870, which is the frontier made against her in 1815. All military writers between those two dates, Bidou continues, maintained that neither the frontier nor Metz was ! capable of defence in case of a de | fensive war, and that the French forces ? would have to fall back on established ! positions in the region of Nancy, as in | the present war. To support this view | M. Bidou quotes several French and ! German writer:;. He also says the I treaty gives Belgium no more security 1 than "it gives France. I As to the thirty-mile' demilitarized | zone east of the Rhine, he adds, it is no protection, because German cover I ing troops could cross and seize the 1 passages of the Rhino and establish ! strong bridgeheads at the first signs of j war before the French could stop them. M. Bidou says it is hard to see how a ; limitation of the numbers of the Gor ; man army can be enforced. He de ' clares every one knows that by per ? mitting Germany 100,000 seasoned ? troops she will be given the nucleus around which the entire nation could gather. The financial clauses of the treaty between the Allied and Associated na? tions and Germany continue to be the j most discussed sections of the docu I ment, and are almost universally con | demneel by the commentators for not making Germany responsible for the : repayment of the entire cost ot trie I war and for leaving France with a : burden placed at 170,000,000,000 francs | (?34,000,000,000). I Wilson May Pay Visit To Geneva League Seat May ?Sot Be Able to Take Trip; "Temps" Says Friends Think He'll Be Back Here by June 15 PARIS, May 10 (By The Associated | Press.)?A suggestion has beeil made : in high quarters that President Wilson | may visit Genova to inspect the seat : of tho league of nations. i This arose in connection with the I presentation by Dr. William Rappard, professor of political economy at Geneva University, for the Swiss gov dtmnont of a largo photographic pano? rama of the league of nations site on tho banks of Lake Geneva, It shows a wooded park a milo square bordering on the lake, with the Jura Mountains in tho rear and the snow-capped Alps in front. There are many villas suitable for offices, but tho main assembly building will have to bo constructed. The site is fivo miles from Geneva, with a rail? way running through the property and the city tramway to the gates. President Wilson's friends sav he would be glad to Bee the future home of the league, but doubt whether he will have time for the visit. Among those close to President Wil? son, "The Temps" says, it is believed that the President will be back in the United States about June 15. Austria Will Reject Union With Germany Chancellor Rentier Declares Nation Must Make Peace With Allies Apart From Government at Berlin VIENNA, May 10 (By The Associated Pressa.?The death knell of old Austria was sounded in Parliament Thursday afternoon when Chancellor Renner, in accepting the 'nomination as a peace delegate to go to St. Germain, said he relinquished all hopes for a fusion with Germany. His speech was made while the impression caused by the Allies' terms to Germany was still strong. The feeling in the chamber was, ac? cording to one speaker, that "it would be madness to unite with a nation sub? ject, to 6uch measures." "The Austrian pccrjle must suffer foi the misdeeds of their rulers," the Chancellor said. "We never wanted the war and we were not guilty of bringing it about. I will do my best to secure better terms for ourselves." The address was delivered within a stone's throw of the Foreign Office in ? Ballplats, where the first machinery of the war was set in motion nearly five years ago, and moved many of the Chancellor's hearers to tears. A few Socialists demanded that no delegates be sent, but there was no attempt at revolt or Bolshevism. Indications to-day were that Dr. | Franz Klein, who favors the annexa | tion of Austria to Germany, will not ; head the Austrian delegation to St. ? Germain, and that Chancellor Renner will take his place as chief of the mis ; sion. The Chancellor will be accom? panied by Dr. .Goertler, of the Chris? tian Socialist party, and by Dr. Schoen bauer, of the German Nationalist party. Dr. Seitz, the President of the repub? lic, was requested to go, but declined in favor of Chancellor Renner. Herr Landesberger, the president of the Anglo-Austrian Bank, will be one of the financial experts with the mis? sion. To Reach Paris Wednesday PARIS, May 10 (By the Associated Press).?The Austrian peace dele? gates will leave Vienna on Monday and reach Paris probably on Wednes? day, the French Foreign Office was ad? vised to-day The naval terms of the treaty be? tween the Allies and Austria, as now completed, fcrc far more stringent than the naval terms in the treaty with Ger? many, as the Austrian navy is com? pletely extinguished. All the large ships are to be surrendered to the Allied and associated powers and no nucleus of the fleet will remain. The only craft of any kind which the terms give to Austria are those for use on the Danube, but these, will not be available outside that fiver. The terms are restricted to the sur? render of the Austrian battle cruisers, destroyers and other ships without providing for the disposition to be made of them, which will be subse? quently adjusted between the Allies and the associated powers. As the fleet operated in the Adriatic chiefly against the Italian navy, the Italians are showing great interest in the al? lotment, most of the ships being at ports under Italian control. Jugo-Slav authorities are also show? ing an insistent tfesire to be renrnsent ed when the disposition of the Austrian cw o UckootV?s?
