MARY MILES MINTER, WHOSE FILM CONTRACT WILL NOT BE RENEWED FACE TREATY FOR TEN YEARS PLANNED BY HARDING WITH FOUR EUROPEAN POWERS Victory for Clemenceau in President’s Dec- laration in Message—Germany Included in Treaty Program—Differences Which Can- not Be Settled Must Be Arbitrated. By David Lawrence. (Special Correspondent of The Evening World.) WASHINGTON, Dec. 9 (Copyright).—Germany, States, Great Britain and Italy united to insure the peace of Europe, just es the four Powers banded themselves a year ago tn a ten-year treaty to nisintain the peace of the Pacific—this may yet be the outcome of former Premier Clemenceau's visit to America. The sged French statesman did not venture to make a concrete sug- gostion to conform with the purpose of his mission until he read President Harding‘’s address to Congress Thursday, in which Mr. Harding recom mended the four-power pact in the Pacific as “a model for like assuran wherever in the world any common interests are concerned.” When the Washington Conference on Limitation of Armament war lic seesion @ year ago, the same thought was put forward informally bul, so far as American aid was concerned, it was made clear that no such project could be considered until the four-power pact In the Pacific had been ratified. Twelve months passed without ratification by France. But the pact fs now being debated in the French Parliament and will be ratified very soon, thus paving the way for a fevival of the idea of a European treaty.

These guarantees, briefly, were the economic control of the Rhineland and partinl occupation of the Ruhr dis- trict with about one division ¢f troops to“eollect the customs on the coal output. It is understood M. Poincare point- ed out that these guarantees wore in no way to be regarded as military action against Germany, but simply as temporary economic measures to insure carrying out the necessary financial reforms during the life of the moratorium. The conference of Allied Premi held a two-hour this noon, adjourning for luncheon ehort- before 2 P, M. The heads of all four delegations—Diritish, French, Italian and Belgian—addrensed the gathering, Premter Poincare of france holding the floor the longest. While Premier Poincaro was ro- ported not to have reached the point of definite proposals, he declared the reparations questoin had arrived at ® stage where vomething radical rust bo done.
