count of Germany's new navy is
given in M~ittschieffs, a German ma
val periodical, a recent issue of
which has reached American head
quarters, describes the Iron torpedo
boat and Half flotillas both Of
which have been organized since the
armistice.
The "iron flotilla" consists of IL
Torpedo boats, which have been en-
gagged in maintaining order on the
western coast of Germany, says the
paper. Some of the vessels have
been used on several occasions for
policing the port of Hamburg. such
as guarding allied food shipments
to the Czecho-Slovaks and similar
work. during periods of disorder.
The flotilla has its headquarters at
Wilhelmshaven. A landing corps OF
about $50 men is distributed among
the IL boats, each of which has a
plotoon of 80 commanded by a
naval lieutenant. The clothing and
arms of members of this landing
corps are the same as in the in
fantry.
The Half flotilla is supposed to be
doing similar duty on the Baltic
coast near the Russian boundary,
with headquarters in KOenigsberg.
The flotilla has been handicapped
recently by delay in obtaining
equipment needed to put the YES
sells in commission. The boats are
armed with machine gun and III

Assembly has received a bill cover
ing reimbursement for personal in
jury OIL property losses incurred
since the revolution. 1t provides
that those who suffered losses, in
jury and death have a right to re-
cover from the government. Money

penses in case of personal injury

for death. The national govern
ment, the state and the community
are each to bear one-third of the
costs.
