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.
