FRENCH WILL OPPOSE
The Sinking of German Warships Taken
in the War.


Paris, Feb. 27.-"The French delepa-
ton to the peace conference will energet-
ically oppose the general sinking of the
German fleet, says Stephen Lausanne, in
the Matin. "0ther powers, of course.
may do what they like with their share
of the fleet, but the French government
and navy is firmly determined to use the
ships which fall to France when the feet
is divided up among the allies in proper
ton to the losses each suffered during
the war.
Georges Leygues, minister of marine,
clearly explained the reason for this at
titude to the navy committee of the
Chamber Of Deputies recently. He
showed how France gave up her dock
yard plants to make munitions at the
beginning of the war, stopping all ship
building. She lost Is per cent of her ma
val tonnage and comes out of the war
with weakened navy, which she has
been unable to keep in repair for five
years
France needs a navy to police the seas
and protect her colonial empire, the sec
0nd largest in the world What would
the country say if, a year hence, the
Chamber asked for a vote of credit to
build ships identical with those sunk i?
The most pacific nations in the world
have navies, and the United States has
just drawn up the most important pro
gram ever voted by the American Con
gress."

GERMAN MON4RCHISTS
PLAN A COUP D'ET4T
1t Is Said That They Propose to Over
throw the Present Government
General staff Has Been
Gradually Getting the
Whip Hand.

London, Feb. 27.-The monarchists of
Germany are contemplating an early
coup d'etat, in the opinion of the Mails
correspondent at Berlin, who says that
the old officer class, with its general
staff has been gradually getting the whip
hand there since Jan. -, and now holds
the government in its power.
"The threatened coup d'etat would be
carried out in Berlin alone he writes,
"and would probably for a time be sue
cessful, although it would certainly re-
suit in ruthless civil war and unscrupu-
Ious political murders. A large number
Of officers are said to be associated in
the plot, which aims at the overthrow OF
the present government and the restora-
ton of the old order of things,
"A secret meeting of monarchist Off
GERS was held at Charlotteburg on Feb.
lG. 1t was summoned by Major Won
Herringer, son of the former secretary
of war. Thirty officers attended and
each is said to have pledged himself TO
hold in his residence a quantity of mu-
nitions ready for an emergency and to
assemble at certain place when called
upon. Every member of the plot has
been requested to enlist as many officers
loyal to the former emperor a. possible,
it is understood. The government has
been warned of what is going on
The correspondent says the organza
ton Of new bodies of troops by the gov
eminent, a step which alone can save it
from the Spartacans and other. extrem-
lists, has been possible only by reason
Of the government yielding to, the old
officer class, which, he says, has already
bullied the government into winking at
numerous political crimes and arbitrary
acts which have been committed"

LAWS TO
BE MADE STRONGER.

Washingtn, Dec. 1.-As result OF
the hearings of the House Committed
on immigration at Ellis Island, New
York, several suggestions have been
developed for Strengthening the weak
spots in the immigration laws, and
proposals for new legislation will un-
doubtedly be submitted to Congress
after the investigation has been COM
pIeted. One plan is to take the au-
thority for passing on deportations Of
undesirable aliens away from the De-
partment of Labor and vest it in the
Department Of Justice. Another sug-
gestion would keep an Assistant Sec
retary OF Labor at Ellis Island, so as
to assure speedy hearings and prompt
decisions. Members of the commit
tee are convinced that tlilatoriness is
the chief fault of the present system.
Chairman Johnson, of the Congress
sional Committee, yesterday, made a
statement regarding the matter which
reads in part as follows:
Eve want to make the law stronger
and juster. and to strengthen the SER
vice so that the enforcement of the
law will be more efficient. There
have been too many officials vested
with the POWER Of delay or with dis
cretion that could be abused, and we
want the authority centralized
One OF the first of those to be de-
ported to Russia is Alexander Berk-
man, who was finally ordered on
Wednesday to be deported after his
case had hung fire for a long time.
According to members of the COM

mittee, the announcement Of final
decision Ivy the Department of Labor
to deport Emma Goldman is likely to
be made shortly. All Of the methods
dealing with Reds that have proved
to be unnecessarily dilEtory are to be
promptly abandoned. Soviet Russia
is not the only destination to which
Reds are expected to be deported
within q short time. Many of the
Reds on Ellis Island are from other
countries, including Turkey, Austria.
Finland, Norway, Sweden and Den
mark.
At the hearings of the House Com
nlittee on Wednesday a sensation was
sprung by the reading of letters to
former Com missioner Of immigration
Frederick c. Howe from the motor
ious anarchist Emma Goldman in
which he was addressed as Dear
