HUN PAPER SEES
AWAKENING FOR
GERMAN PEOPLE

Berne. Switzerland, Monday,
June 30.-(French Wireless Ser
vice).- German leaders who
were protesting so violently
against the rigors of the peace
terms are not representing what
the real sentiment of the German
people will be when they know the
whole truth, the Munich Post, ma
jority Socialist newspaper declares
in an editorial in a recent issue.
Germany's own. acts are response
Bile for the losses of territory,
thereby caused by The peace terms,
the newspaper admits, and the
statesmen know this.
When the German people are
acquainted with the facts" the
Post declares. they will under
stand why the victors are so strict
and so lacking in mercy toward us.
The German people then will si-
lence those who are surprised at
the rigor of the peace terms They
will compel them to adopt a more
moderate tone and this will bring
back the good feeling which exist
ed before the reign of the policy of
violence now ended. The civilized
world will then with confidence as
sist us in our misery and in our ef-
forts to obtain just and humane
modification of the terms of the
voctors to which we are bound to
submit today"

FAMOUS PLACE OF
'HINKY DINK' NOW
SOFT DRINK JOINT

Chicago, July Every drop of
beer in the house having been sold
at 1880 o'clock last night the man
ager Of the "Workingman's Ex-
change" held up his hand and
shouted:
Everybody out We're going to
close up"
Expostulations were useless on
the part of the three-deep crowd at
the long bar, and thus ended one of
the most famous drinking resorts
in the country. "Hinky Dink's
place." as it was better known. was
started % years ago by Michael
Kenna, alderman Of the First ward.
He has been in the saloon business
for about thirty-five years, but the
place where he presides in person
is a block away and too swell" for
those who patronize the "Ex-
change"
Any "bo" could get a drink there
between and o'clock in the
morning for nothing. The "Ex-
change" will reopen today as a
soft drink emporium" it was an
nounced. During its existence 1t
sold an average of 20 barrels of
beer day, the alderman stated.

HOLLWEG PLAN
NOT OBJECTED
TO BY BERLIN
Peace Now Signed, Hun
Heads No Longer OPP
pose His Proposal.

Berlin, Monday, June 80. = CBy
the Associated Press DIR. Theo-
bald -Hollweg, former
German chancellor, offered on May
20, 1919, to surrender himself for
trial by the allies, but withdrew
the offer on the specific request of
the government which at that time
took the view that Germans ac-
cused of causing the war or of acts
in violation of the rules of civilized
warfare, should be tried before a
local court of German judges. His
attitude at that time, therefore,
was held to be undesirable.
VIII Get Him Anyway.
Now, however, after peace has
been signed and the Germans have
agreed to extradite persons whom
the allies desire to place on trial,
the action of the former chancellor
in offering to surrender to the al
lies is looked upon as purely per-
sonal. The government does not
object to his action as it is believed
that he is one of those whom the
entente intends to bring before
the high tribunal.
