America, London Says
Peace Deadlock Continues
provisional Decision as to
Terms to Turkey Proba-!
bly Will Be Reconsidered
frsm bunt's European Bureau
(Copjrriffnt, IS 0, New York Tribuno Inc.) j
LONDON, Feb. 20. The decision of
(??o United Stairs for or against co?
operation in the peace settlement is of
outstanding importance in Europe to
,-?sv. The mere rumor that the oppo?
nents of the treaty in the S?ante now;
believe ratification is impossible is ex-i
retced to i.rouse as much alarm almost
as ?fj new conflict had opened.
A., the schemes for the reorganisa?
tion and resettlement of Europo are
based on the Assumption of American
participation, and withdrawal at this!
..tsge can only mean the wildest con-!
fusion politically and economically.
The supporters of the plan to seek a
settlement with the Bolsheviki are in?
fluenced by their fear that the United
States will decide to remain aloof from
European affairs, and that Germany
i ?1) then seek a new alliance with !
Russia and Austria. In fact, German
negotiations with the Bolsheviki are
keeping pare with, if not in advance
of. the British and Italians. France is
i g i tain : g her policy of reserve.
The situation i? extremely grave
from whichever direction it be ap?
proached. The fate of Turkey must be j
considered uncertain and theer is every
likelihood that the provisional decision!
already announced will be reconsidered. ?
The terms being made by ihe Allied
1'remier? are extremely unsatisfactory
here. Italy is making a strong petition
for a place in Asia .Minor, and her
- - are conflicting somewhat with
and French aspirations.
? : e league of nations enjoyed the
strength which it promised at the be- I
(finning of the Paris conference many j
of the problems the delegates in Lon- !
don are finding almos* insoluble would
row have passed over to that body.
But America's absence from the league
means it is still only an apology fur !
s world league.
Just how the Allies are going |to
reach n unanimous decision and pre?
serve the integrity of their alliance is
a question that cannot be answered
row. The very fact that tho confer?
ence adjourned to-day after on unusu?
ally brief session indicates how serious
the deadlock is.

Trial of "War Criminals"
Will Begin Next Week
?s
Examination of Witnesses To
Be Followed by Pleadings
Within a Month
LONDON, Feb. 20.---The German
government is rushing preparations to
try Germans accused of violations of
the laws of war and examination of
witnesses and arguments will begin
next week, according to a Berlin dis?
patch to "Th< Central News." Plead
inga will open before the Lelpsig court
within tho next month, it ia said.
Germany's reply to the last Allied
note relative to the trials will point
out issue upon which greater clearness
is desirable, according: to a decision
! reached by the German Cabinet on
Wednesday, says a Berlin dispatch to
the Exchange Telegraph Company.
It will bo .contended, the dispatch
states, that accusations against several
| persons, notably Fiel.l Marshal von
| Hindcnbuvg, General Ludendorff and
; Admiral von Tirpitd are too general.
Newspapers at Berlin declare tho im?
perial Public Prosecutor will be re?
quired to test allegations and make
I inquiries, and that it is possiblo he
may conclude there are no grounds for
', instituting proceedings.
Lady Astor Objects Only
To Word 'Prohibition' !
Looks Forward to Day England i
Will Follow Examples of
America, She Says
From The Tribune's Burbpeau Bureau j
e'or>> right. l!>2n. New York Tribuno Inc.
LONDON, Feb. L'O. Lady Astor-is
annoyed at the interpretation placed
upon the speech in which she said: "I
hate the word prohibition. I have
enough of the devil in me That if any
one prohibits a thing it becomes the
one thing that 1 want." ?She writes
to-day:
"My objection was not ot the aboli?
tion of drink by popular vote of the
electors, but to the word 'prohibition.'
'Prohibition' eloes not seem to me a
good interpretation of what has just
happened in America, because the coun?
try was not made 'dry' by the arbitrary
ruling of a despotic government, but
an act of self-denial was passed with
the support ot* an overwhelming ma?
jority of the people.
"I am sure that such a majority does j
not jot exist in England, and so wo
must go for what is tho most imme?
diate practical measure in tho state
control of the liquor trade. 1 person?
ally look forward to ? day when Fug- |
land will be prepared to go as far as I
the United States has.
"But in the mean time I believe it
would be impossible to impose prohib?- j
tion successfully on an unwilling peo- ,
pie, and we should only put our cause
back, instead of forward, is we pressed ]
for it now.''
