Senator Reed does not always make a statement with
which the country agrees But he struck home when he
declared that the fuel administration should stop the
business Of backing and ng and give the people some
assurance People must have coal They want to buy
1t as rapidly as they can In order to prepare for
winter But when the administration says one thing one
day and another the next there no assurance what the
third day will bring forth. II the people are convinced
that the fuel administration really has policy and Will
stick to IT, there win be trouble about their proper
o-operation.-Indanapolis News

back to Germany for trial, hoping the
disclosures they anticipate from the
proceedings will add fuel to their
propaganda for war on the former
ruling classes and the whole bour-
geoise.
Radical leaders are holding the
Hohenzollern head and his family up
to shame, pointing out that they are
living In ease and comfort while
thousands of German families who
have given life and treasure to the
former war lord are starving. The
president of the Hamburg Soviet has
declared he has positive evidence
that twenty bags of gold coin were
sent to the ex-kaiser. Meantime the
Netherlands government expects q
demand for the surrender Of Wilhelm
and his SON to reach it at any mo-
ment and is said to be prepared to
accede to 1t. Holland is said to stip-
ulate one condition, however, name
ly, that the royal refugee be intern
ed for life on some dutch island pos
session.
Government leaders are exercised
over the problem that the allies will
occupy Berlin until peace is signed
and for some time after that period.
Five additional divisions have
been added to the American army OF
occupation now marching into Ger

WASHINGTON, Dec. IA new
upheaval has taken place in Berlin.
The Ebert government issued dec,
laration today that it did not order
the arrest yesterday evening of the
executive committee of tho union of
workmen's and soldiers soviets.
Promise was given that the prison.
ers would be released forthwith.
Proclamation of DIR. Ebert, as presi-
dent of the Republic of Germany"
yesterday, appears to have been an
affair of little consequence, being
staged by an isolated group of armed
soldiers and sailors.
Taken as a whole, yesterdays out
break, as far as CLEANED from the
news so far received, was in the ma
ture Of OF demonstration backed by
the moderates and executed by arm
ed forces loyal to the Safe and
Sane leaders, that the Liebknecht
terrorism will not be suffered. Lieb-
knecht had announced a terrorist
revolution for yesterday evening and
the arrest of the radicals and attend-
ing demonstration were designed to
prove that there is no room In Ger
many for the red terror.
Reports of disorders and riots
marked by casualties are still coming
in, but It is seen from the dispatches
that they date day or two back, fol-
lowing the arrests of Sovists ex-
ected Yesterday. Shots were cx-
changed in large scale in demon
stration in front OF the Reichstag
building.
Troops occupied the building ol
the University of Berlin. The Berlin
National Zeitung says the allies In
tend to demand that Germany dis
solve all Sovists in default of which
Germany will get no food.
Rumors persist in Germany thai
the Allies propose to occupy virtually
the whole country. There is little
talk of strong opposition to such
plan, the Germans evidentlyfeelint
that it would avoid anarchy.

nounces Doctor Solf will be replaced

these deaths are believed to be caus-
ed from influenza.

authorities that the weather may
have something to do with the spread
of the malady. The storm of4Satur-
