OU INCH'S SYMPTOMS IN CFRMAVT. ibe- - wmrk ilorre support-fro- thus far-b- y A f'lNGn.AR coincidence with respect ter the proceedings of the Peace Conference is that when the slate of affairs in the Central Empires is qu.escent and hopefuls the Conference h disposed to proceed leisurely, but' when .things took atormy and ominous east of the Rhine, the peace ronfereee are inclined to get al their work with full speed. It ft perhaps unkind to express the thought,! but the suspicion of tt exists nevertheless, that this vacili due to lating temper of th peace-mak- er uncertainty aa to how tightly the screws pan he applied to the late enemy wtLhout producing anarchy and RoUheviit revolution. Little love though the Attics may have for Germany, and heavily as they would like to penalise her in the matter of Jndemmties. they are not so blind but what tAey see thedanger of creating a condition of utter ebana and despair, resultmad ing tn the overthrow of law and order, the destruction of all economic possibilities, and the strllen repudiation of all debt and claims. It is obvious that if a firm and orderly govern- jrimt shall be set up In the late empires beyond li e Rhine, th Allies will be In a position to enforce heavier demands; whereas if the demands are madetoo severe before the government is will be overthrown In tb jl take possession of red rage and fury that ' the proletariat mind. If this surmise is correct, the news from beyond the Rhine during the past few days and especially yesterday, emphasizes the need of work yith the completion of the terms burry-u- p of peace; and it! may also explain PresL Wilsons decision to hasten straight to Parts instead of going around by way of Belgium as was at first proposed. The situation in Germany is certainly one to cause anxiety to the Allied world; and the delays of the Paris conference, whatever the motive that may have been responsible for them, have apparently bad the effect of putting a premium on reactionary or Bolshevist revolutions. Of course it will be admitted that the question of concluding peace with Germany has been complicated by, the overthrow of the imperial regime. There was no use of trying to come to terms until there was a firmly established government to deal with. But there is the greatest kind of danger in delaying the matter too long; and it is a grave question whether the cause of orderly dcmocrary has not already been imperiled in favor of the anarchy whose mutlerings are today reaching the worlds affrighted ear.
