Critics Not Satisfied and

PARIS. prll 11.- Manned by
result ot the bye election at Hull lasi
: wneek, Premier Lloyd George of Grei
Britain, according to the Echo ';-
Paris, has persuaded the unci of
four to revamp completely ihe ffnan
, 'k1 plan to be incorporated in the
treaty of peace Instead of ;t payment
of 25.0oo.u00,00o fmncs on account and
annual payment- to be fixed by n
commission, it ha- been decided to
at on-e ihe amount which Germany
will have to pay within fift years.
H This amount ia kept secret, but It is
indicated b the newspaper that a Hg
m ure ot 25.000.000,000 francs has ben
agreed upon, which includes a! ..-.,-damages,
as well as the cost of pen-,
:ions.
Plxipg the total uni will have the
merit of facilitating treasury opera
R tions and the tarrying out. of mutual
w measures for assistance among ;he al
f lies. The fiscal statement of twenty
I five billion francs must be paid WltlF
B in eighteen months, th' newspaper
t declares.

P region, however, will be administered
by a sort of directorate under the aus-
pices of the league of nations. This di
rectorate will consist of one inhabitant
of the Saar region, one Frenchman
and three nominees of the league.
The regime, it is said, will last for
fifteen years, when a plebiscite will
be held and in the event that 'he in
k habitants elect to return to Germany
r" that nation will be obliged to buy back
I the mines, paying in gold. To carry
out this task would be no mean un
H dertaking. say the commentators, es
I pecially those of the Echo de Paris
and Le Journal, who declare It to be
simply a repetition of the Tangier
regime, which they say has been seen
10 be the equivalent of "most com
plefe inertia.'
Neither are the critics satisfied with
'bo plan for military occupation ot the
left bank of the Rhine, although the
I methods to be followed hae not been
finally decided upon. It Is .-lated in
H French papers that this would be "en
tirely in the honds of French troops,
who will guard the bridgeheads aud
railroad junctions.'" In addition, there
L is to be a new thirty-mile neutral mili
I laxy zone on the right bank of the
river, it Is said. These two measures
will be in force only fifteen years.

Very Little Improvement
on the Original.
LONDON. Sunday, April lo. ia
f Montreal. In commenting upon the
r Mill uf the Hull bye election last
w ek in which the coalition or govern
mept candidate was chelated, the
Daily Express remarks;
"We have faith In David Lloyd

these gentlemen are forcing on an un
willing peopTe. The government is

war administration imo an era of
peace."
The Daily News find- in ihe result
a definite pronouncement against con
scription. The .Manchester Guardian declares
"the electors think they have been
fooled and don't like it There was
a great deal of humbug and pure dem
agogy at the general election and un
happily our versatile prime minlstei
was in more ways than one responsi
: was to pay all. will pr.y something, il
we are lucky, and the German state
holds together, but not a tithe of what
the electors were encouraged to think

I The Guardian also ascribes the de
feat to the disillusionment over the
punishment of the kaiser and' ihe abo
illtion of conscription.
Papers Score Wilson
LONDON. April 11 The summary
of the amended covenant of the league
of nation? evokes no enthusiasm in
the London morning newspapers and
it is declared by some commentators
to be less satisfactory than the rirsl
draft. The Chronicle, for instance,
' points out certain points which it
thinks make the new draft "distinctly
and perhaps decisively inferior to the
old."
The newspaper condemns the policy
i of requiring unanimity for the decis
ions of both the council and assem
bly and also condemns the terms upon
which the covenant may be amended
and permission given any nation to
withdraw on two years' notice. It re
gards the covenant as unharmed by
the Monroe doctrine amendraen'.
which it believes should facilitate the
'adhesion of the United States to the
i covenant.
The Daily News, which is a warm
champion of the principle ol the
league, objects to ihe legislation of
I the new council, which, It says, "will
manifestly be controlled by prominent
representatives of the five powers
when they are in agreement," and it
fails to see how the four representa
tives of other powers chosen for the
assembly can have much indepen
dence. The newspaper does not ex
press any great conlidcnce in the ef
ficacy of the league in any case.
New Little Improvement
The Labor newspaper, the Daily
Herald, says the summary does not
indicate much improvement on the
original draft. It declares that from
a democratic viewpoint 'the league is
still an alliance of states and not a
union of peoples.'
The Post, which is an opponent of
the league and a severe critic of Pres
ident Wilson, refers ironically to the
"new garden of Eden," in which "the
Monroe doctrine will take the place
of the tree of knowledge of good and
evil,"' referring to "the fruits of
tbe western hemisphere being forever
forbidden as signatories of the league "
Attributing to President. Wilson per
sonally the features of the draft to
Which it objects the newspaper says
"posterity will place him wiih Mattel
nich and Castlereagh as one who
worked for the confusion of other na

Mrs. Hearst was 19 years old when
i tdio va married. Her husband then
i was beginning the career that made
;him one u the most noted figures fn
'western financial and mining circles.
i She wa" born I ?niber !:. on
la large farm bordering the Merrlra ck
river in Franklin county. Mo. Her an
cestors were English and her father
'was of the Apperson family that i
tied In Culpepper county. Kentucky!
She taught srhool for a time In
t'ruwford county. Mo., and then, leav
ing her home in St. Louis, and her
many friends, "went wesi" with her
hu-band. The route lay by way ol the
Isthmus of Panama. Often she rode
With her husband on his trips into the
mountains. She came to know the ex
citement of holdups, land slides, run
aways and all the incidents of fron
tier life. She worked with her hus
band and was with him when he lo
cated some of his richest mines. The
trips took them into Nevada. Utah,
! Idaho. Montana and the Dakotas.
j With the success of her husband's
I ventures and his flection to the United
States senate, Mrs. Hearst moved to
Washington, where she became one ofl
the leaders in tho social life ot tho
capital, beginning in 1S6. Then fol
lowed various visits abroad, including
a trip around the world.
She was living In Paris when the
news of the great San Francisco earth-1
quake and fire of 1006 reached her. I
She returned to California and since
then had lived In Pleasanton. near San

Main Items of Treaty

of Four.
EARLY DATE IS SET
President May Remain
For the Versailles
Meeting.
PARIS. April 14. Germany, under
the peace treaty, must pay $5.000 000-
000 in cash or the equivalent in com-'
mod'ties May, 1921. She must aloO
icsue immediately to the allied md ;
associated governments twenty billion
dollars of interest-bearing bonos.
The interest on the bonds until 1926
will bt either two or three per cent r.nd
after that date will be five per cent, '
according tothe present plan.
r.RIS. Aprd 14 The status of ihei
American, Japanese and French,
amendments to the covenant of the
league of nations has been definitely
established so far as the league of na
tlons commission is concerned, withi
1 he American iimendment concerning
the Monroe doctrine the only one to
he given a place in the covenant bj I
the commission. The French and Jap- j
aucse, however, have both made reser
vations which entitle them to renew,
at B plenary session of the peace con
ference, the questions involved In the
amendments so that the final decis
ion is still open.
As to the affairs of the peace con
ference as a whole, they are shaping
i themselves now with the league of
nations' question and nearly all the
t main points in the peace treaty are
virtually disposed of. so that the date
when the enemy delegates shall be
summoucd to Versailles has been ten
tatively set.
The peace congress, as It will bo
called, instead of "peace conference,"
after the enemy delegates are admit
ted, will, according lo the present un
derstanding, oc-ur between April 26
and May fifth, and it is considered not
improbable that a definite date may
be announced by Premier Lloyd
George when he speaks before the Bri
tish house of commons the coming
Wednesday.
Wilson May Attend Congress
Indications are that the Germans
I will be given opportunity to discuss
the peace terms before tho congress,
but that no extended discussion will
be permitted, two weeks being sug
gested as tho outside limit for the
sessions to be held at Versailles. These
sessions, it is expected now, will be
attended by President Wilson who is
said by those close to him to feel that
the progress made toward concluding
the peace is such that he will be able
to remain for the Versailles meeting.
The chief question as regards the
p ice terms remaining to be settled,
I now that the Saar valley and repara
tion ppnblems have been disposed of in
I virtually all their details, is that of
the Khine frontier. The council of
four is likely mainly to occupy itself
with this question during the present
week, the debate probably centering
upon the French contention for so
curity from a military standpoint, the
i n n h attitude being indicated as de
lermined one on this point.
It is indicated also to have largely
allayed France's fears from a military
standpoint of what might happen
should there be another German at
Mack that influenced her representa
tives in their sustained opposition to i
the Monroe doctrine amendment to
the league of nations' covenant. Their
a . une ip v. ,i .-, 1 1 lb.' Monro-- dot t rine

Annex to the Weber Academy Building Structure Is to
Be Built This Year as Another Big Institution to Add to H
Ogden's Importance.
The Weber Academy and Normal
college is to have a gymnasium at last,1
after five years of effort to evolve a
plan by which it could be secured. A
meeting was held at the academj Sat
urday afternoon b ihe presidencies,
high councils aud the bishoprics of the
Weber, N'orth Weber and Ogden
stakes, at which David O. McKay,
chairman of ihe college board of ecu-
at ion. presided.
After presentation of the proposition
and a discussion of many of its phases,
it was moved and unanimously carried
thai a gymnasium to be built in con
nection with the college to cost from
1150,000 to $200,000, and to be built
this year The general church authori
ties have given assurance that they
will meet the contributions made in
the three -takes, dollar for dollar. The
amount was left with the board of
education and if, on investigation of
the needs and the approximate cost,
the larger amount, is decided upon, flic

"The question of Danxig will likely
be settled by setting Up a kind oL
autonamonc itsla in thai district wtrilfr
including it In tbe Polish customs
area."
Wilson Agrees with Lloyd George
The correspondent understands that
President w.ilson has definitely agreed
to the proposal originated by Premier
Lloyd George which essentially con
sist's in giving France ownership of
the Saar coal mines while making the
district a neutral state under the
league ol nations. The questions of
reparation and of disarmament in the
Rhine region, he says, seem also to
to have been more or less settled in
their broad outlines.
"Whether the treaty will bo ready
by Easter is, of course, another ques
tion. ' The correspondent continues:
Fundamentals Agreed Cn
"The import fact Is, however, ihn'
the council of four seems to have
agreed on all fundamental points."
As to the western border of Ger
many, the correspondent states he
has it on good authority 'that Premier
Clemcnceau's main object has been
from the first day of the conference
to pave tho way to a settlement that
"should be entirely based on the idea
of right which since 1870 has been
embodied in Alsace -Lorraine," and
that the settlement of the Czechoslo
vak question should be entirely ac
ceptable to tbe English -speaking de
mocracies. "Those who believe he would try to
annex to France the whole or part
of the left bank of the Rhine entirely
misunderstood his intention." the cor
respondent declares. "Truly enough
when the question of the western bor
der of Germany came before the
council of four he asked at first for
a ratification of the frontier which
would amount to re-establishing the
French border of IS 1 1 . The under
stand such a demand It must be re
called that the comparatively small
district extending between the border
of 1870 and the border of 1814 in
cludes places such as Sarrelouise
! where eighty per cent of the inhabi
tants are said to be in favor of re
union with France.
"Still, as objection was raised In
side the council of four that such a
itep might be interpreted as Amount
ing to annexation, the French govern
ment made it clear on March 2$ that
it did not wish to maintain its cle
Imands. if Great Britain and America
'deemed it objectionable. Since that
date France has confined itself to
claiming that the coal of the Saar
valley was due. to France as repara
tion. '
"This principle was agTced to by all
parties, as it recognized that the
transfer of the mines Is but inadequate
compensation for the bavoc dellberati -l
wrought in northern Franco by the
German--.
' The solution of the Saar problem1
was suggested last week by Mr. Lloyd
George. It consists in giving the Saar
a kind of autonomy resembling that of j
Luxemburg. The local authorities
would remain free from interference!
by either French or German adminls- j
tratlon, the political status of the
district being, besides, i;uai ant .-ed by
the league of nations. That suggestion
was carefully worked out b a sub
committee. The scheme vra: laid be
fore the council of four early asl week
and heart lis supported by Lloyd -George."

primarily for tbe use of the Weber
students, now numbering 700, the need

use of the institution by the general
