SYNOPSIS OF TERMS OF
* THE1PEACE TREATY.
Canadian Press:
Ottawa, Canada, May 7.—The fol-
lowing summary of the Peace Treaty
elraft has been received here, address-
ed to the acting Prime Minister:
Paris, May 7.—The Treaty of Peace
between the twenty-seven Allied and
Associated Powers on the one hand
and Germany on the\ether, was hand-
ed to the German. -plenipotentiaries
at Versailles to-day.It is the longest
treaty ever drawn. It totals about
80,004 wards divided into fifteen main
sections, and represents the combined
product of over a thousand experts
working continually through a series
of commissions for the three and half
months since January 18th. The treaty
is printed in parallel pages of English
and French -which are recognized as
having equal validity. It does not
deal with questions affecting Austria,
Bulgaria and Turkey except in so far
as binding Germany to accept any -
agreement reached with those former
allies.
Germany by the terrns of the treaty
restores Alsace-Lorraine to France,
accepts the internationalization of the
Saar Basin temporarily and of Danzig
permanently, agrees to territorial
changes towards Belgium, and Den -
in East Prussia, cedes most of
Upper Silesia to Poland, and renounces
all territorial and political rights out-
side Europe, as to her own or her allies
territories, and especially to Morocco,
Egypt, Siam, Liberia and Shantung.
She also recognizes the total inde-
pendence of German -Austria, Czecho-
Slovakia, and Poland.
Her army is reduced ta one hundred
thousand men, including officers, con-
scripton within her territories is a-
bolished; all farts fifty kilometres east
of the Rhine razed; ane all importa-
tione, exportation and nearly all pro -
ligation of war, materials stopped.
Allied occupation of parts of Germany
will continue till reparation is made,
but will be reduced at the end of each
of thave-year periods if. Germany is
fulfilling her obligations. Any viola-
tion y Germany of the c-onditions as
to the zone fifty kilometers east of the
Rhine will be regarded as an act of
war.
The German navy is reduced to six
battleships, six light cruisers, and 12
torpedo boats without submarines, and
a personnel not ever fifteen_ thousand.
All other vessels must be surrendered
or destroyed. Germany is forbidden
ta build forts controlling the Baltic,
must demolish Heligoland, open the
Kiel Canal to all nations, and surrend-
er her 14 submarine cables.
She may have no military or naval
air forces except 100 unarmed sea-
planes until October 1st, to detect
mines and manufacture aviation ma-
terial far a six-month period.
She agrees to return to the 1914
met fevered nation tariffs, without
discrimination_ of any sort; to allow
Allied and Associated Nationals free-
dom of transit through her territories
and to, accept highly detailed provis-
ions as to pre-war debts, unfair com-
petition, internationalization of roads
and_ rivers, • and other economic and
financial clauses.
She. also agrees to the trial of the
ex -Kaiser by an international high
court for a supreme offence against
international morality and of other
nationals for violation of the laws and
customs of war, Holland to be asked
to extradite the farmer Emperor and
Germany being respensible for de-
livering the latter. The League of
Nations is accepted by the Allied and
Associated Powers es operative and
by Germany in principle, but without
membership. Similarly an interna-
tional labor body is brought into be-.
ing with a permanent office and annual
Convention.
A great number of international
bodies of different kinds and for differ-
ent purposes are created, some under
- the League of Nations and some to
execute the Peace Treaty. Arn.ong the
former is the commission to govern
the Saar Basin till a plebiscite is held
16 years hence, the high commission t6..
Danzig, which is created into a free
city under the League, and various
commissions for plebiscites in Mal -
needy, Schleswig and East Prussia.
Among those to carry out the Peace
Treaty are the repatriations, military,
nasal: air, financial, and .economic
commissions; the International High
Court and military tribunals to fix,re-
sponsibilities, and a series of bodies
for the control of internatioliel rivers.
Certain problems are left for solution
between the Allied and Associated.
Powers, notably details of the dis-
position of the Gerrnan fleet and cables
the fernier German colonies, and the
values paid in separation,. Certain
other probIerns such as the laws of
air and the opium, arms, and
liquor traffic are either agreed to in
detail or set for early international
action.
Germany accepts full responsibility
for all damages caused to Allied and
Associated Governments and national
agrees specificially to reimburse all
eivilian damages, boginnilng with an
initial payment of 20,000,000,00;T
marks, Subsequent payments to be
secured by bonds to be issued at the
discretion of the Reparation Commis-
sion. G-ermany is to pay shipping
damage on a ton -for -ton basis by ces-
sion of a large part of her merchant.
coasting and river fleets, and the new
construction, and to devote her eea-
Millie resources to the- *rebuilding of
devastated regions
Germany cedea to France Alsace-
Lorraine, 5,600 square miles, and to
Belgium two small districts between
Luxemburg and Holland, totalling 989
square miles. She also cedes to Poland
the south-eastern tip of Silesia beyond
and including Oppeln, most of Posen,
and West Prussia, 27,686 square
miles, East Prussia being isolated
from the main bodse,by a part of Po-
land. She loses sovereignty over the
north -easternmost tip of East Prussia,
40 square miles north of river
Memel, and the internationalized area§
about Danzig, 729 square miles, and
the basin of the Saar, 738 square miles
between the western border of the
Rhenish Palatinate of Bavaria, and. the
south-east corner of Luxemburg. The
Danzig area consists of the "V? be-
tween the Nogat and Vistula Rivers,
made by the addition of a similar "V',
on the west, including the city of Dans
zig. The south-eastern third of East
Prussia and the area between East
Prussia and the Vistula north af lati-
tude 53 .degrees 3 minutes, is to have
its nationality deterinined by popular
vote, 5,785 'square miles, as is to be
the case in parts of Schleswig, 2,787
square miles.
A PAINFUL CONTROVERSY -
Mr. Lemieux, affords the Globe en -
other welcome opportunity of assur-
ing us of the unselfishness of the
English Liberal press in the election
of 1917. Neither -Mr. Lemieux nor
the Globe harangues justly. We have
never heard that any Liberal journal
was bought in the vulgar- and libel-
lous sense. But we should .be sur-
prised if some were not influenced by
the coirrniercial advantage of being
on the popular side in a time of great
public emotion. Mr. Lemieux ought
not to say more in ter out of Parlia-
ment than that the English Liberal
press had not the courage to breast
.a storm. We do- not see how , the
Globe cai resume its old place if it
persists in asserting expressly,, or by
implication, that those who differed
from it in 1917 were rule or. ruin poli-
ticians or not acting with a solemn
-conviction that they, too, were right.
We should deem it just to say that
many thousands. of competent and pa-
triotic persons were convinced that
the unity of the Canadian people was
a consideration to be weighed, and
that the success of conscription would
be meagre and not worth the cost of
trying it. The result eleows that such
persons were not without good 'judg-
ment.
In a controversy touching its own
conscience and that of its respectable
neighbors the Globe ought to be quite
candid. It may reasonably be doubt-
ed if its profession of contempt for
party is squite candid. It has, at all
events, been striving for some time to
make a party of its own, that of the
new .Liberalisin, the principles of
which it scarcelY dares now ta avow.
In proof of its virtue it cites a resolu-
tion of the- 26th of July, 1917, from
which onlr the esteemed Mitchell Re-
corder dissented, to the effect that
Canada's man power, income and
capital were to be conscripted. That
declaration was of great influence in
the election but it is our recollection
that the declaration for the conscrip-
tion of capital was not seriously ad-
vocated after election ,,day by those
who assented to the resolution. There
eve those of even temper who assert
that a material vote would not have
supported man conscription if • it
had not been persuaded by the un -
candid profession of the English Lib-
eral press that capital conscription
would also be enforced.—Farmers'

Death of a Pioneer—The Brussels
Post of last week contained the fol-
lowing reference to the death of a
well known and highly respected
pioneer of this township: "The people
of this locality were sorry to hear last
Friday morning that James Turnbull
an old and well known resident of
concession 4, Grey, had passed away.
It was not a surprise to the community
as he has been hovering near the
border land for the week' previous.
Although a hearty man in his earlier
years his Walth had been impaired
by a broken leg, oceasioned nine years
ago by a fall from a wagon and in
Deeembier 1916, a !similar accident
happened while he was working in the
stable from a kick by A horse. Coupled
with these misfortunes followedea long
siege .of neuritis and for years the
subject of this notice -was unable to
get about as was his wont. At times
he -Was a great sufferer. Mr. Turn-
bull was born at Ayr, Ontario, being
the first male child in the community:
He came to Grey township 53 years
ago, buying the farm on which he
died, viz Lot 5, Concession 4, and up --
on which he resided continuously. A
year after his arrivel he joined hand
and heart with Miss Agnes Milne, of
Galt, who survive e and proved herself
a true helpmate indeed. The other
members of the family are James, of
London, and Jolla, George and Wil-
liam, and Mrs. George McFarlane, of
Grey township, and Mrs. John Doig,
near Wioxeter. For many years Mr.
Turnbull took an active interest in
the well-being of the locality and was
honored with the reeve's chair and a
seat at the county council for various
terms. He was a statuich supporter
of the Presbyterian church and a
Liberal in politics. For every good
word and work "Jimmy" Turnbull, as
he was familiarly called, had a friend-
ly word and a helpful hand and he was
the type of man that might be safely
followed in many phases of life and be,
led right. He commanded the respect
of all who Imew him. Deceased was
the lest of his family out of a family
of one brother, William of Kincard-
ine, and three sisters, William,
Thomas
Currie - -Thessalen, Algoma; Mrs.
Robert! McCosh, Pine River, Ontario;
and Mrs. Haggard, Brown City, Mich.
The funeral took place Monday af-
ternoon to Brussels cemetery, the
service being conducted by Rev. A.
J. Mann, B. A., deceased's pastor. The
widow ancl other relatives have the
sympathy of a wide circle in their
bereavement.
