INTERNATIONAL SITUATION
 IS GIVEN IN BRIEF OUTLINE

has been chosen as yet seems doubt fuI, although the American delegation has received a report that Herman Mueller, majority socialist leader, had been selected.
 A Berlin dispatch dated last Friday declared, however, that the govern ment at that hour bad announced it. self unable to. pick a new cabinet and had decided to postpone the attempt for AS hours.
 The advices seem to indicate that President Ebert will retain office at least for the time being. Matthias Erz- berger head of the German armistice commission, seems sure of a place in the government, probably as minister of reconstruction and fulRlment of the treaty, and he is pointed to the likely head of the German peace dele- gation. Dr. Mueller is mentioned for the premiership; Gustave Noske, the minister of defense, and Dr. Eduard David are also mentioned for the same position. It is reported Germany has asked for an extension of time for her final decision. Dispatches from Paris would appear to indicate that under the circumstances such a request would be favorably received.

 A central office and meeting place always open.
 Betterment of local conditions for motorists.
 Membership in the American Auto mobile association and included pr1Vl- leges.
 Reciprocal relations with other clubs in the country.
 Better signs to and from New Britain.
 Better road signs on highways.

 Will you come next Tuesday nigh and talk it over? We want you.
 Yours very truly,
 NEW BRITAIN AUTO CLUB,

 As While the trend of German senti- aent is declared in advices reaching 3fe peace conference to be continuing &1rongly in favor of signing the treaty, 8t is becoming apparent the Germans do not intend to make their attitude sknown without an effort to obtain in the terms.
 In the first place they want to know definitely what they are signing and have asked the peace conferees if the terms of Premier Glenn enceau's cover ing note, as regards reparations, and other phases of the treaty, may be considered as part of the document itself and binding on all parties.
 In addition, they are reported to have asked the conference if the Allies would agree to admit Germany immediately to the League of Nations, consent to limit Germany's indemnity to O,OOO,O00 gold marks and strike out the requirement for the sur render of the former emperor.
 The German cabinet situation is still a mixed one. It is definitely known that the Scheidemann cabinet has re- signed. Whether successor to him

UNCONDITIONAL PEACE
ALMOST CAUSED HUNS
GENERALS TO RESIGN

Berlin, Tuesday, June 24.-Long ac.
counts written for the Berlin papers
by correspondents at Weimar telling
of events preceding the decision of
the German government to sign the
treaty of peace show that there was
threat by generals and officers of
the volunteer troops to quit if the
treaty was signed without reservations.
Gustav Noske, minister of defense,
proffered his resignation, but later sue.
ceeded in appeasing the officers. He
then withdrew his resignation under
pressure from his party and cabinet
ministers.
Feeling among military leaders still
is running high, Notwithstanding the
fact that they are admonishng the
troops to continue in the service. Mai.
Gen. Baron Won Luettwitz, in a special
call, reiterates his opposition to the
peace terms. While Major Won Visa,
Herr Noske's adjutant, has announced
that Prussian war Minister Reinhart
will attempt to defend the menaced
honor of the army and its leaders by
the adoption of special measures, he
will confer with Herr Noske today.
Correspondents at Weimar are un.
animious in the belief that the prestige
of Matthias IIrzberger has been dam.
aged because of his mysterious but
emphatic statement that the entente
would be willing to yield on the hon
or issue, which failed to materialize. !
Herr Erzbergers position is sub |
Ject Of much speculation and it is
believed that as soon as the peace |
crisis is passed he faces rather try
ing period.
