Washington, Nov. 6.-Notice was
served on Germany by the allied and
associated powers in a note and ac-
companying protocol, forwarded last
Saturday that the treaty of peace
would not go into effect until Ger
many executes to the satisfaction of
the allied and associated powers obli-
cations assumed under the armistice
convention and additional agreements.
The note, made public tonight by
the state department, provides that
the German government shall send
representatives TO Paris November 10,
to make final arrangements for the
putting into effect of the treaty. But
the note specifies that before the trea-
ty can be made effective through a
process verbal of the deposit of the
ratifications, the German representa-
tives shall obligate the nation to carry
out the terms of the protocol
The protocol contains a number of
obligations assumed by Germany in
the armistice convention and compile
ment agreements which have not been
carried out, and which have been the
subject of urgent representations.
These include the withdrawal of Ger
man troops from Russian territory and
the delivery of certain German tom
mage.
Most important, however in the OBJ
legations Germany is asked to assume
under the protocol is the replacing of
vessels destroyed at Scapa Flow with
five light cruisers, and to make up
for the first-cass battleship sunk at
Scapa Flow by turning over the float
ing docks and cranes, tugs and dredges
equivalent to a total displacement of
100000 tons. In this respect, the pro-
tocol declares:
1.-THE allied and associated powers
cannot overlook without fas s+fd the
Utffer inifdetfons committed against
the armistice convention and VIOLA
tions as serious as the destruction of
the German fleet at Scapa Flow, the
destruction of the submarine UC-4S
off Ferrol and the destruction in the
North sea of certain submarines pro-
ceeding to England for delivery"
Replacement Of the submarines de-
stroyed through the turning over of
additional submarines and submarine
machinery is provided.
Provisions of the armistice agree
ments and peace treaty which the pro-
tocol demands that Germany carry |
out are:
Delivery of forty-two locomotives
and 4,460 cars as yet not turned over. |
Delivery of all documents, specie,
values of property and finance, with
all issuing apparatus, concerning pub
lie or private interests in the invaded |
countries
Delivery of additional agricultural
implements in lieu of railroad mate
rial.
Restoration of works of art and ar
tistic documents, and industrial mate
rials removed from French and Bel
gfan territory and as yet not COM
pletely restored.
Payment of the value Of aerial ma
terial exported to Sweden, Holland
and Denmark in violation of treaty
terms.
The protocol concludes with the fol-
lowing paragraph:
I'm case Germany should not fulfill
these obligations within the time spe-
Gifted, the allied and associated pow
ers reserved the right to have recourse
to any coercive measures or other
which they deem appropriate"
