DOMINIONS PLACE IN EMPIRE
London, Sept. 12
The "Times" in an editorial on the discussions in the Canadian and South African Parliaments on the Peace Treaty says the approval of the Dominion Parliaments was a foregone conclusion bat far more important is Dominion opinion about the effect of peace upon the position of the Dominions within the Empire. So far this side of the Treaty has not had much attention in this country. General Smuts in a very remarkable speech shows what the signa- ture of the treaty by General Botha and himself "means, namely that Dominion peoples for the first time have re- ceived international recognition apart from the British Gov- ernment. It is an immense development and General Smuts "is right to make much of it, even apart from his use thereof as an argument against Hertzog. When General Smuts speaks of representatives of the Dominions acting in future for the Dominions he is thinking no doubt of the League of Nations. It is very interesting to know that the South African delegate to the League will be appointed soon but the new standing of the Dominions has many consequences apart from the operation of the League of Nations and General Smuts dões” not exaggerate when he says the whole basis of the British Empire will have to be altered. In practice the alteration may not be very great at least so far as the internal system of the Empire is concerned, but it is not so with the international standing of the Dominions. Thereanent the doctrine which found expression of the Peace Conference is a new doctrine in advance of Imperial practice and the task of the future will be to bring practice in the Empire into correspondence with the theory established at the Conference as a conse- queace of the part played by the Dominions in the war. General Smuts is aware of this and so is every. Dominion leader. For instance Mr. Rowell in the Canadian Parlia- ment said "The necessary machinery to give Canada full nationhood has not yet been worked out." Till that is done the British Government must still represent the Dominions in many international negotiations. The resident Dominion Ministers in London will help to keep the British Govern.. ment in touch with Dominion opinion bat. much more than that is needed. It is certainly desirable that the initia- tive in pressing on the conference of the Empire representa- tives whereas Mr. Rowell hoped a solution of the problem would be reached should come from the Dominion Govern-
ments
THE AUSTRIAN PEACE 'TREATY.
St. Germain, Sept.-10.
The Austrian Peace Treaty has been signed. Dr. Renner, the Austrian Chancellor, signed the Austrian Peace Treaty at 10.15 this morning in the Con- ference Room of the Chateau of St. Germain. The other delegates then signed in order, the Americans leading follow- ed by the British. The Ramanian and Yugo Slav delegates were not present. Altogether a dozen documents were signed including the main treaty and the protocol affirming the-authenticity of the text of the Treaty, treaties dealing with the protection of minorities in Humania, Yugo Slavis and Czecho Slovakia, and financial treaties. Mr. Balfour, Lord Milner and Mr. Barnes signed for Britain, Lord Milner also signed for South Africa, Sir Edward Kemp for Canada, Sir T. Mackenzia for New Zealand, M. M. Clemenceau, Pichon, Tardieu, Klotz and Cambon for France and Messrs. Polk and White and General Bliss for America.
The Rumanian and Yugo Slav delegates did not sign because they had not received instructions from their Gov- ernments. The Supreme Council has given them till Bunday to make known their intentions
Paris, Sept. 10.
Beuter's correspondent describing the scene at the signing of the Austrian Treaty says: M. Clemencean opened the session with the fewest possible words.. Addressing Dr. Renner, he said peace negotiations withAustria were com- pleted and he had certified that the Treaty accorded with the agreements reached. He then invited Dr. Renner to sign. The latter alone signed for Austria. His bearing was tranquil and assured and even the gravity of the moment did not divest his plump features entirely of their accustomed smile. The signing ceremony lasted for an hour, after which M. Clemenceau closed the session. Dr. Renner and most of the Austrian delegation return home- ward to-night.
The Romanians have prohibited the issue of a Hun- garian Proclamation firing the elections, for. Sept. 28. Premier Friedrich, invoking & concession from the Entente mission. and Rumania bereanent urges his desire to gauge public feeling regarding his policy,
Paris, Sept. 19.
It is reported that the Rumanian and Serbian Cabinets have resigned, hence the time limit granted to Romania and Jugo-Slavia to sign the Austrian Treaty will probably be prolonged. The Conference has decided to take a plebis- site of the Techen coalfield in order to settle the conflicting elairs of the Poler and Czechs.
