BERLIN. Dec. 30-The Ger.
man group which favors allied
occupation OF Berlin as a DO
litical coup, plans 20 force this
move by arresting all American
and British newspaper men in
the city, Police Prefect Eichorn
warned me today.
Eichorn said the politicians in this
group believed arrest OF the CORE
spondents would draw allied troops
into the capital. thus changing the
entire complexion OF the political sit
uauon. and probably resulting in the
overthrow Of the radicals.
Conditions here are far from sta
bic yet. with the socialists and
Spartacides still struggling for
power. In view OF Vorwaeerts' call
for the masses to demonstrate
against terrorism" the Spartacides
called for rival demonstrations.
Further disorders, with some cas-
ualties. were reported today from
Dresden. There was also said to
be some plundering in Hamburg. In
Essen. 10000 factory workers were
on strike.
A dozen casualties were reported
to have occurred yesterday on the
streets of Posen. in fighting between
the Poles and Germans The Berlin
newspaper declares the disorders
were precipitated by arrival of Ig-
mace Paderewski. who is expected to
be president of the Polish republic.
