The first signs of a division in the
conference was when it proceeded to
consider the four resolutions framed
by the council of the great powers,
providing for committees on labor, re
sponsibility for the war, reparation
for damages and ports, railways and
waterways. *
Camille Huysmans, in behalf of
Belgium, asked for two members on
the committees of labor, reparation
and the league of nations, and one
each on the other. Siberia made a
similar request.

Aside from the importance of the

voice of the United States had taken

NO REPUBLIC IS WANTED BY
GERMANS OF THE RHINELAND
WILSON IS TOO REACTIONARY
Coblenz.—The results of the elec
tions in the Rhineland can be sum
med up in a few words. More wom
en voted than men, and the. triumph
of the centrist party is complete. The
monarchists voted with the clericals
against liberal tendencies. The so
cial democrats were badly beatea and
the extreme radicals received little or
no support. ~
f Reports of results in Germany
proper—Germany beyond the Rhine—
tell a different, story. It is said at
Leipsic the social democrats met with
success, but as far as territory occu
pied by the American, French and
British is concerned there can he bo
doubt of the sentiment of the people.
They want no political upheaval.
They want no republic.

announcing a plan to close 50 church-
% in Petrograd.
Other articles show the authorities
intend to impose a special tax on
churchgoers. Religious teaching in
schools is forbidden.-
Recent. speeches by Lenine and
Trotzky to the central Moscow so
viet are regarded as preliminary to a
complete surrender by the bolshevists.
Both leaders confessed the economic
system of bol^hevist comrriunism was
was bankrupt, especially in relation
to industrial production, finance And
the food question.
They said the time has come to in
vite exports of the middle class to co
operate with the soviets on an accept
able basis. A similar invitation was
addressed to the intelluctuals, who
declared they stood outside the civil
war. On the question of foreign pol
icy, Trotzky declared the soviet gov
ernment would, under certain condi
tions, give up its internationalist aims
for the time being Ind raise the ban
