Telegraph Not Permanent

New York, March 10.-Government
control of telephone and telegraph sys-
tens is in no sense perinancns ana the
property is to be returned after
limited PERIOD according to Theodore N.
Vail, president of the Bell sys;em, in
his annual report made public today.
Public ownership is not desirable, ac-
cording to Vail, and there is no longer
any extensive conviction in the minds
Of the public that there can be effective
competition in the electric transmission
of intelligence.

RIOT FOLLOWS ARREST
Of TWO U. S. SOLDIERS
Military And Civil Police Have
Argument Which Turns
Inie Fight.

London, March 10-The riot in the
Strand yesterday resulted primarily
from London civil policemen attacking
American military policemen, according
to information obtained today
When the civil officers arrested two
Americans near the Y. M. G. A. Eagle
hut On charge Of gambling and started
for Bow Street Jail, several military po
licomen followed and asked that the
prisoners be turned over to them for
military trial, it was said. An argu
ment resulted which turned into fight.
The military policeme were dubbed and
placed under arrest
News Spread to Hut.
The news spread to the hut. Several
hundred American soldiers and sailors,
together with few Canadians and
Australian soldiers, started for the jail.
Police reserves charged into their midst
swinging clubs. A free for all fight
casued in which four American soldiers
and sailors were severely injured, and
five policemen and several score Ameri-
cans and Canadians were slightly hurt.
Mounted policemen were called out
but the fighting continued for two
hours. Order was finally restored by
the intervention of additional military
policemen, who persuaded the soldiers
and sailors the dispersc. about fifteen
Americans who had been arrested were
later turned over to the American au-
thorities.
The Americans were greatly incenscd,
charging the London policemen were
over hasty in using their clubs against
military policemen, who reany were try
ing to quiet the disturbances. The civ
ii authorities make the counter charge
that the Americans were attempting to
storm the jail. Army, navy and police
officials were cooperating in On invse-
tigation.
At Canadian headquarters il was de-
MED that Canadian soldiers had parti.
cirated in the riot.

Paris Mar 10.-The supreme eco
nomic commission is expected to re,
sumo conferences with the Germans at
Brussels Immediately.
The new plan mapped out by the su.
: preme war council will, it is believed,
readily accepted by the enemy. This
provides:
First, partial removal Of the eco
monte blockade, permitting Germany
TO export such commodities as coal and
potash.
Second, establishment of neutral
credits by Germany.
Third, use of Germany s gold reserve
if money raised by other means falls
short of the amount needed.
Is No BacE,iUwn
This program, accurately forecast
Saturday by the United Press, consti'
tutes no backdown by the allies. 1t
fits in completely with additional terms
included in the armistice during Janu'
aey Increasingly serious conditions in
Germany threatening the present gov
ernment merely made immediate allied
decision on details imperative.
In return for enactment Of this pro-
gram which will enable the Germans
to purchase enough food to last until
the next harvest is available, in Au-
gust, the enemy will be required to
turn over practically its entire mer-
chant fleet These ships, which will be
used largely in repatliating American
and Australian soldiers, will bring
back food supplies on their return
trips.
Admiral Wemyss to Preside
A report was circulated today that
Admiral Wemyss will preside at the
coming sessions of the economic ccun-
Gil of which Bernard Baruch and Thom-
as Lamont are the American members.
Foreign Minister Piehon, in his week
ly conference with correspondents, said
The allies recognized the necessity for
sending supplies into Germany know
ing that hunger would breed disorder
and act adversely to the allies own
interest. He said the allies took the po-
sition that they were ready to supply
food and find the necessary credits,
but that the Germans must first declare
themselves ready TO carry out the
terms of tire ,armistiee and hand over
their ships.
Pichcn said the union of German
Austria and Germany cannot be ac-
complished until it is ratified by tho
peace conference. This, he said, was
doubtful.
THE conference is making such rapid
progress, according to Pichon, that
definite conclusions probably will DO
reached earlier than seemed possible
two weeks ago.
To Punish War Criminals
The preliminary peace treaty, it was
learned today probably will include a
clause requiring Germany to turn .ler
all officials found responsible for war
crimes, to be tried by an International
tribunal.
While the responsibilities committee
is not expected to complete its report
for several days it is understood do
cision has practically been reached in
this regard.

cannot be legally extradited, also that
it will be difficult to determine his
personal responsibility fer the crimes
charged against him. A suggestion has
been made. however, that the Germans
themselves will try to obtain his re-

Noska Is Determining Factor.
War Minister Noske's s iron hand was
really determining factor in causing
the strike leaders to accept conpro-
misc with the government, as they fear
ed terrorism by the radical elements
which had not been invited into the
strike would lead the cabinet to de-
cl,sre military dictatorship.
The Spartacans among the workmcn,
however, refused to yield to the ausAa.-
ity Of the more conservative leaders
whose conference with the cabinet aE
Weimar led to the compromises. The
government gave in 10 the extent of
granting the soviets constitute. .al
recognition as directors OF labor and
production and promising partial social
ization Of industries But the radicals
wat the soviets to be supreme and ap-
parenty are determined to fight until
this is accomplished, or they are COM
pletely crushed.
Anticipate Calamity
With the radicals preaching & new
revolution, the people are pessimisticaily
expecting a calamity There is common
talk that food will give out completely
in May and that everyone will starvc
unless peace comes and the blockade
is lifted.
Discouragement and bitterness are in
creasing. The general lack OF conf
deco is provoking an astonishing ire
sponsibility and disregard for human
life. The public goes about its busi-
ness dejectedly, ignoring danger on aii
sides.
People Indifferent.
While the fighting was at its high
est with airplaAcs oil both sides battllng
overhead, nlinenwcrfers and cannon bat-
tering down buildings and machine gul
ad rifle bulltes sweeping the streets,
men and women block from the scene
Of the battle appeared to be unaware
Of anything out Of the ordinary.
The fighting tonight WAS limited to
series Of gorilla warfare, with the
radicals resting in isolated streets and
buildings. But rebellion seemed to bc
in the very atmosphere ard it was fear
cd that continued fighting might again
set the whole city seething with revola-
ion.
Berlin seems ripe for bolshcyism I'M
less be Weimar government is strcagth-
ened by the allies.
Compromise Agreement.
Berne, March l0.--The compromise
agreement entered into between strike
