Now that peace and the whole world speculates upon preliminary conditions, it is of particular interest to note the de- mands which she made on France in 2871, when conditions were reversed At this time Germany offers to evacuate occupied parts of France and Belgium as her price for an armistice, Marshal Foch says that the Allies must take over Metz, Strassburg and Coblenz before be- ginning negotiations, It is well known that France demands restora- tion of Alsace and Lorraine as a first condition of any permanent peace. Germany has stated with equal em- Phasis that she will not relinquish this territory. After the fall of Paris, France signi- fied her wish to conclude peace. French and German commissioners met at Versailles and concluded a preliminary agreement on Feb. 26, 1871. That agree- » ment was exactly the kind of docu- ment that German and allied commis- sioners must now formulate before real peace terms can be considered, PRINCIPAL PROVISIONS OF THE VERSAILLES AGREEMENT. Here are some of the principal pro- visions of the Versailles agreement: It is set forth that France will cede Alsace and Lorraine to Germany, with Germany i seeking “SAVE YOUR HAIR!
