Armistice Terms Tighten German War Limits
The peace conference edge grows as Germany faces renewed armistice terms and demobilization. France pushes for stronger measures to deter future aggression while the council seeks to balance American and British caution with French security. Russia and China, Japan, and Balkan unrest also color the week’s diplomacy, with Roumania and Vienna scenes of upheaval and anarchist activity abroad. The navy bill and League of Nations draft loom over negotiations as allied leaders weigh enforcement options.

War measures and votes shape budget and army plan
The Senate faced battles over a three year defense bill totaling 421,000,000 for naval and army programs. Secretary Baker and Chairman Dent advanced a temporary army of about 500,000 funded by voluntary enlistments. The proposed reorganization shifts army control from the general staff to the War Department, stirring attacks from preparedness supporters. Suffrage advocates again failed in the senate by a close margin as lawmakers split along party lines.
