as of his former great political op-

would wish to go, no lingering, no

PeaceConference Has Been Too
l_eisurely.
Sir Robert Borden Protests Against
Present Situation In Paris : and
Tells CanadianSo101ers That
They Have Right to Know at
Once When They Will Return to
Their Homes.
PARIS, Feb. 17.— There are in-
creasing evidences of dissatisfaction
among the delegates over the leisure-
ly progress made by the Peace Con.-
ference towards the accomplishment
of the primary purpose for which the
Conference was called: the conclu-
sion of peace, thus permitting the
world to set itself to the problems
of peace.
The present situation of neither
war nor peace, with the resumption
of hostilities a possibility, even
though a remote one, encourages in-
dustrial and political unrest which
is becoming more manifest in Euro-
pean countries with each passing
week. It is felt that the organization
of the conferenee does not expedite
proceedings. The reference of differ-
ent question to special committees to
examine into and report upon, is only
effective if the committees are active.
The League of Nations committee sat
daily for ten days and finally pro-
duced a draft of the proposed con-
stitution, and the labor committee
has been meeting at brief intervals
and hopes to reach conclusions in a
fortnight. There are a dozen com-
mittees with more work in sight and
many of them do not seen), to find it
practicable to hold inectings oftener
than once a week.
The important eonetnittee of Greek
claims is a case in point. Aepointed
over a week ago, it Ines had only one
meeting. A second meeting eves to
hove been held on Saturday to con-
iider the distrate as to the ownership
of Northern Epirus, but was post-
eoned. At this rate of speed it will
take weeks to complete its work. It
is understood that there have beent
formai protests against these delays.
The Premiers of three great powers
have now departed to attend press-
iag questious and the other
delegates face tho prospect of long-
drawn-out delays in reaching (Mei-
:dons Which prees for settlement.
