(By Associated Press)

BERLIN, April IA German pro.
fessor figures out that the abdications
and achievements in Germany in.
clude 278 persons Bavaria leads with
one King, one Queen, fifteen princes,
sixteen princesses, five dukes and one
duchess. Prussia has sent 33 royal
ties into exile, including the emperor
the empress, twenty princes and elev-
en- princesses. Brunswick is at the
bottom of the list with only the ducal
couple and their three children. The
two tiny principalities of Reuss, whose
area is hardly one-three hundredth
part of that of Prussia have exiled
thirty-six royalties.
The principality of Lippe, only about
twenty square miles larger than the
Reuss states had a royal family num-
bering twenty-four persons. Most ex-
traordinary is the case of Schaum-
burg -Lippe, with its area of 1870 square
miles where there was nearly one
royal parsonage for every five square
miles. These included the reigning
prince, seventeen princes and seven
princesses.

concerning the Kiel canal and Helgo

portant particulars. 1t was the orig
NAL plan to destroy the Notifications

mercial waterway without defenses
The changes that now have been made
leave the present Notifications In ex

inserted permitting of the continu-

according to tn original plan.
The changes concerning Helgoland
leave intact the present large basin
constructed on an extensive scale for
the use of submarines during the war
IL was concluded that the use of sub
marines now had been so restricted
that the basin no longer constituted
a menace and it's continuance was de
cided upon as providing a useful hav-
en- for the North sea fishing feet in
case of distress. The Notifications In
Helgoland are to be dismantled so that
the basin is virtually the only thing
retained
The final disposition of the German
feet is one of the subjects still unde.
cided and even the highest naval
authorities are not aware how the
question stands since it passed into
the hands of the council Of four. The
disposition to be made of the battle
ships and the battle cruisers is one of
the chief things to be determined upon
under the head of naval terms and the
decision will effect the large number
of capital ships held under the terms
of the armistice
