Hal O'Flaherty Says Country
Is Working Most Con
tentedly.
BY HAL O'FLAHERTY.
By Cable to The Stnr nn<l <hlcago
Daily News. Copyright. 1010.
STOCKHOLM, Sweden, November 5.
?Sweden, profiting by the lessons of
j the Russian revolution, is working
! harrier and more contentedly than at
any other time since 1914, with pros
t pects for the future as bright as, if not
brighter than, those of any other na
tion of the world. Coming here from
England after viewing nearly a year
of continual industrial strife, during
which time 1 have watched the whole
community suffer while this union or
that gained technical points in the
matter of wages or hours through the
use of strike weapons, Sweden ap
pears to me as a haven of peace. No
workmen are striking, nor are there
signs of strikes ahead. Kvery indus
try is leaping forward in production,
unable to fill a fraction of the orders.
Suffered for Food.
At this time a year ago Sweden suf
fered intensely as a result of the
food shortage, but that condition has
been speedily remedied. Every food
<"nop in Stockholm displays such
abundance of good things that it is
hard to believe that the Swedes have
ever had to eat black bread or do
without sugar and butter. It js al
most unbelievable to Americans and
Englishmen coming here that any
country can enjoy such a large meas
ure of prosperity In view of world
conditions.
Especially is it surprising to find
that Swedish labor, hitherto strongly
, socialistic in its tendencies, bus rot
; absorbed some bolshevist propaganda,
I but conditions prove that the men arc
j steadfastly against anything like
communism or sovietism. They have
watched the progress of affairs across
the Baltic, and are now content to
proceed along constitutional lines
with an organized representative gov
ernment as their ideal.
Activity in Building.
Another Indication of Sweden's
prosperity is evident in almost every
portion of the country. This is the
vast amount of building under way.
Stockholm undoubtedly has more new
buildings tinder construction than all
the rest of the capitals In Europe
combined. The civic improvements
extend in every direction. The skill
ed workmen employed in construction
express only satisfaction over the
conditions generally. They declare
that it is possible to live comfortably
and support their families upon their
earnings.
All they ask is that the government
shall reduce prices so far as possible.
Swift action by the Swedish govern
ment to inaugurate the reforms
asked for by the laboring classes is
indicated bjT the program just out
lined In the riksdag. It is proponed
to alleviate the housing shortage by
furthering building loans, buildivg
houses for state employes and gettiflT
city and state co-operations whereve
the shortage is acute.
Now that world peace seems as
sured Sweden expects to cut down
military and naval training and to
limit the conscription of students as
well as unfit men. Broadlv speaklrg,
Sweden is the only country in the
world without profiteers, without re
strictions on food, without strikes
and without widespread unrest and
misery. It is like a peaceful valley
between two active volcanoes?Amer
ica on one side and Russia on the
other.
WOULD COMPEL MEXICO
TO REPAY BIG RANSOM
The State Department Is called upon
to take steps immediately to force the
Mexican government to reimburse the
Americans who paid the ran
som to the bandits for release of Wil
liam O. Jenkins, American consular
agent at Puebla, Mexico, by a resolu
tion introduced late yesterday by Rep
resentative Norman J. Gould of New
York, republican.
A less drastic resolution was Intro
duced by Senator King, democrat, of
Utah, which asks the State Depart
ment to report whether the Mexican
government has been requested to re
imburse Mr. Jenkins to the amount of
the ransom.
Both resolutions were referred to
committees.
In offering his measure, Representa
tive Oould charged that the State De
partment, "in open and cynical repu
diation of sacred government obliga
tions to protect the lives, liberty and
property of its citizens, had declared
an open season on Americans and its
official representatives for bandits and
rebela in Mexico."
The greatest battle of the late war
was probably the battle of Verdun,
in which hundreds of thousands of
men were engaged and which con
tinued. with brief Interruptions, for
more than a year.

VERSAILLES TREATY TERMS
APPROXIMATE CZARS IDEA
Nicholas Romanoff, in Autumn of 1914,
Outlined Proposals Originated by
His Foreign Minister.
BY ISAAC DOV LEVINE.
By Cable to The Star and f'hlcnpt
Daily New*. Copyright, 1919.
BKRUIN, November 5.?The terms
of peace of the treaty of Versailles
are coincident, in an amazing degree,
with terms of peace outlined by
Nicholas Romanoff, Czar of Russia, In
the autumn of 1914. These peace
terms originated with Sergius Sazo
noff, the czar's minister of foreign
affairs and at present acting in the
same capacity for the antl-bolshevist
government of Ekaterinburg, which
is allied with the Kolchak faction.
The proof is In my hands. It is in
the form of a secret telegram record
lng a conversation which tile French
ambassador in Petrograd. M. Paleo
logue. had with the czar in November,
1914, in which the latter outlined in
detail peace terms .which to an as
tonishing degree were carried out
nearly five years later by the cham
pions of world democracy gathered
in Paris.
Telegram Sent in Code.
The telegram was sent in three sec
tions in code to Thoophile Deleasse,
French minister of foreign affairs at
Bordeaux, where the French govern
ment was then located. Nearly all
confidential messages sent by diplo
matic representatives in Russia to
their governments were copied and
decoded by a special section in the
czar's foreitrn office pos?ess'nir most
of the existing code keys. M. Paleo
logue's dispat'h was also copied and
submitted to the czar, who marked it
with a blue pencil. I have a copy of
the middle section of this telegram.
Cirfortunately the other sections are
missing from the archives of the
czar's foreign ministry. Doubtless the
secret files in the French foreign of
fice could yield a complete account
of how M. fiazonofT, in bargaining for
Constantinople, inspired the French
government with confidence that the
most far-reaching aims might be
realized.
The czar did not get Constantinople,
| but Premier Clemenceau and Gen.
! Foeh knew how to capitalize the
I Romanoff ideas .It is noteworthy that
1 the czar's statement that "Russia will
annex the territories of ancient. Po
land" was made shortly .after the fa
mous manifesto of Grand Duke Nich
olas promising the restoration and
independence of Poland.
Translation of Section.
Following is a literal translation of
the section of the Paleologue dis
patch dated November 22. 1314. which
I copied:
"Secret continuation.
"Kxamination of the Balkan ques
tion having ended, his majesty asked
me. "And Austria-Hungary, what will
become of it'." Putting the question
in this way, the emperor probably
desired to emphasize the persona;
character of the exchange of views to
which he invited me. I answered:
"Austria-Huneary will survive with
difficulty the territorial losses to
which the unfortunate emperor
Francis Joseph, will be obliged t.
consent. The Austro-Hungarian union
havinu failed. 1 believe that the part
ners will not be able to continue
marching together.'
" 'I believe so. too," the czar said.
'Hungary deprived of Transylvania
will have trouble to maintain the
Slavs under its rule. Bohemia will
reclaim at least its independence.
Austria will then he limited to Its an
cient hereditary states?to the Ger
man Tyrol and the country of Seix
burg. It is in Germany, above all.
that great changes will occur.
Will Annex Territories.
""'As I told you. Russia will annex
the territories of ancient I'oland and
part of > astern Prussia. France will
certainly take hack Alsace-I?rraine .
and extend herself, perhaps, over the
Rhenish provinces. lielgium shou.dj
receive in the direction of Aix an !
important territorial increase. As to ?
the German colonies. France and Kns- j
land will partition them at their own
pleasure. Finally. I wish that Schles
wlg-l lolstein and the zone of the Em
peror William canal, Kiel canal,
should be restored to Denmark.'
?"I think that M. Delcasse per
sonally will agree to everything your
majesty lias said to me,' said M.
Paleologue.
"'And llanover?' asked the czar.
'Will it not be convenient to recon
struct it? By the interposition of a
small free state between Prussia and 1
the cof.st we will much strengthen j
peace, as It is there our direct thought j
must be. Our action v ill not be justi- ,
tied by history unless it be a noble I
idea?t>1 ?? thought ol securing for a
very long time the world's peace.' I
" Then this will be the end of the
German empire?' asked the French
ambassador."
Here the section ends with the re
mark "to be continued." It is now
the turn of Paris to continue.
