WORLD-WIDE ANXIETY.
AS TO FATE OF THE PEACE TREATY. [Aust. and N.Z. Cable Association.] LONDON, Yesterday. British correspondents in America evince the greatest anxiety as to the fate of the Peace Treaty. The "Manchester Guardian's” American correspondent states that the Senate’s amendment to the Treaty, providing for the representation of the United States on an equality with Britain at the Peace Council, was prinarily due to a widespread conviction throughout America that a conflict with Japan is impending, and most Americans believe it is unavoidable. "The Times..” in a leader, says that President Wilson’s effort to popularise the Paris agreement will 1m watched with world-wide anxiety. Tlie fate of the treaty hangs in the balance. Its rejection by America, or even its cool reception, would bitterly disappoint the Allies and powerfully encourage the strong party in Germany which hopes to sec the Republic play the part of the former militarist empire.
