‘How / Is- The’ World

Among the many strange incidents "m; pafllQ to notice from. time to “ma, i; the apparent contrast be- iween events as far apart as the poles, and as close be forty miles.

The remark is often heard from those who travel extensively, and who, in the course of their travels, have met people from distant parts, that the world is a small place after all. ‘Ihey seem, sometimes, to be al- j continually bumlping into per- sons they know. On the other hand, they may be seperated by only s few miles, and yet ncver meet.

The smoking room of a sleeping car has witnessed many strange meet-

ings, and many stran e tales. Not so long ago the writer as travelling in a Canadian National Railways‘ sleep- ing ca: from Montreal to the Mari- tims. The smoker was empty save fOr himself and another occupant. Natur- ally conversation ensued, and from the weather matters drifted to the War, and the discvoery was made that the other-occupant of the smok- ing room was an American chemical engineer, who had seen war service in Arabia and Palestine, and had many times met- the famous Lawrence of Arabia. He told c. story that at one time when he was pre- sent at dinner an Finglish officer sat

nursing sisters, and handed her over fifty cents, saying he wished to pay her back her money. Naturally she was surprised, and said she had never given him any money. “But yes you did," returned the Ekiglish officer, "Don‘t you remember buying some oranges from an Arabian trader this morning?" "Yes," said the Nursing Sister. “Well, I was the Arabian trader," who was none other than Lawrence himself.

On another occasion while in the smoking room of a sleeper enjoying a moming shave, two other occupants were present. Both were elderly men. and one had just entered to perform his morning toilet. They talked io- gether for a. while, and one of them said, “Are you a Maritime man," and the reply was "Yes." Then the other said he was also, and mentioned the town where he was born, to which the reply was made that he was his’! 7419 miles from that town. Names were exchanged and it was learned that one was a retired bank manager, and the other was promin- ent in the pulp and paper industry In the Marltimes. Both had lived in the Mariilimes for a long time, one all his life, and were born only forty miles distant from one another, yet the first time they had met was in the smoking room of a sleeper.

ey came later this afternoon to again report and I advised them to agree to the sum of forty billions of dollars, but to hedge it around with safeguards, as far as the United states was concerned, so that in no event would we be either legally or morally bound to help enforce its collection. That amount seems perfectly ab- surd....

Ed Note: It was finally decided be- cause of the French and British at- titude not to insert any fixed sum in the treaty. ‘M. Clemenceau,’ writes Mr. Lamont, ‘was the first of the Prom‘ i-wnotea in this instance by his Minister of the Treasury, M Klotz- to make the declaration that whatever sum the "experts" might finally compromise and agree uponIas the sum to demand from Germany, that would still fall fer short of the expectations of the French populace; that no Government accepting such a sum as final could endure. Mr. Lloyd George, who never lent a deaf ear to political considerations, readily fell in with this point of view; What Really Happened at Paris, 262.

MANY PROBLEMS

‘Besides these crucial problems that touched the German Treaty, a multi- titude of others demanded daily atten- tion, some of them closely involved with the settlement, some relating to current policy. Belgium asked for preferential treatment in the matter o_f reparations and feared French in- fluence in Luxembourg. What should be done with the inemed - German navy? Now that the Bolsheviks had refused to enter the Prinkipo Con- ference, what attitude should the Allies assume? what eirrangements should be made for getting food into Austria-Hungary and Germany? The quarrel between Italians and Jugo- Biavs was fast becoming acute. French credit was threatened and steps must be taken to save it. Could the League of Nations be actually put into operation to assist the con- ference in meeting current issues? what form should the proceedings of the Conference takes when‘ the Ger- mans were called in?

Paris, March 1.1919

I got iii communication with Lloyd George by telephone. He thinks that i; is essential for you to came directly to Paris as soon as possible. His dif- flcultics with the coal miners and other laborers culminate around the 24th or 25th of March and it will be

land by them. If you arrive in Paris by the 13th or 14th we both believe it may be possible to settle the pre- liminary peace terms with Germany by the 23rd and name a day for the regular Peace Congress in which the Central Powers are to participate. (Cablegram) Paris, March 4. i919 . . . The situation in Germany, particularly in Bavaria, is extremely critical and I have tried to impress both the British and French with the necessity of getting food into these countries immediately. After a con- ference with Clemenceau and Balfour we agreed to bring the question of supplying Bohemia before the Council of Ten to-morrow. Clemenceau asked that he be given a short time tobring the French public to a realization of the importance of sending food into Germany, when he promises earnest cooperation with us in that direction. Balfour and I also took up with Clemenceau the question of Luxem- bourg. He has agreed to withdraw the French troops stationed there and Z shall confer with Pershing on Thurs- day as to whether American troops shall occupy it. Everything has been speeded up and I feel confident that by the time of your arrival all questions will be ready for your approval. Lloyd George is expected hero to- morrow night.
