Five Ger- man secretaries and their interpreters took thelr places at tables in the rear. Premier Clemenceau, ag President of the Congress, then rose and de- clared the session opened. He started immediately upon his open- ing spesch, pausing to permit this to be translated into English and German by French interpreters, The translation into the German was de- cidediy faulty and halting, The Premier then addressed the Germans again to expluin the conditions of the nogotiations, telling them that there would be no oral discussion permitted and that they must submit their observations in writing within fifteen days. The Premier then read the headings of the treaty and made bis suggestion that the Germans within a few days might be ready to commence the discussion of certain sections of the treaty: ‘Whon the Premter conctuded with the customary phrase, “has any one observations to make,” Count Von Brockdorff-Rantzau raised his hand, but he was not recognized ‘until the Premicr's remarks jad been trans- lated.
