PARIS, Mar. 7.—The final mil-
itary terms to be included in the
preliminary peace treaty with
Germany probably will be more
drastic than even those suggest-
ed by the Supreme War Council,
Captain Tardieu, the French high
commissioner, the American dele-
gates and a French delegate to the
Peace Conference told the United
Press today.
All the terms of the prelimin-
ary peace are complete except the
mi!it?:y terms and they have not
been completed bcause "it seems
to be the unanimous desire of all
the delegates to make the military
terms more stringent than even
the ones suggested by the Su-
preme War Council,''
TarJieu declared.
With regard to whether the Lea
gue of Nations covenant will be strike_ which yesterday almost
made a part of the peace treaty, flickered, today appeared to be
