Berlin Doomed To
Become City Of
The Second Class
By The Associated Press

Berlin, Oct. ZZ.-UnuGr the caption
Oh Inc Murder OF BerHn, the Boer-
sen L6IJung, one Oh the ablest Ger
man newspapers, says the tate Of the
city is N Che balance and that 1t Is,
perhaps, 100 laIe to save 1t from be-
coming city OF the second-class IN
every respect, with the removal or
the capltal and the activity IN pusl-
ness and political sense to some
Rhlneland city. 1t is a theory that
has been gaming ground lately ana
causing Berlin to lose sleep.
"Cne day" the financial paper adds
there VIII be a fearful awakening
II the problem that confronts US S
not recognized and solved at the
twelfth nour. Inc problem is to
save Berlin from destruction"
The paper then cites the January
rious by the opartacists, from the
wounds OF which Berlin has never
recovered. Then came the March
disorders, followed by the July
transportation strike which threw
Berlin into a chaotic state. The
strikes then ensued one after anoth-
er in an endless succession. The I'M
certainty or the economic situation
led to almost u boycottlng OF Berlin
as the chief work center OF Germany,
tor industry had to De sure OF quiet
and order In It's search Tor labor, and
Berlin daily was the opposite.
Despite the huge expense, one in
duslry after anoJher left Berlin for
quieter, steadier field. Now the
winter months are coming, already
full Of threats of uprlslngs and
strikes.
Merchants, politicians and indus
trial. leaders have predicted that the
transfer OF the assembly or reich
stag, would inflict severe blow upon
Bernn, especially if it should lead to
the choice of another capital.
The label imperial capital" and
its enormous labor possibilities have
been Beriin's chief claims to super
iority. it has been the industrial
heart of the empire. Yet, say manu-
facturers, labor is now Systematically
tanning industry and destroying it,

Germans Are Blamed
For Alleged Alsace
Revolution Plot

Strassbourg, Wednesday, Oct. 22-
The conspiracy for a revolt IN Alsace-
Lorraine, having for its object the
establishment OF an autonomous re-
public Is assuming greater portions
than at tlrst anticipated. hoessler,
the man alleged to be the arch con-
splrator and who has been placed I'M
der arrest, has, according to military
authorities, made confession, aa
hitting tnat he has received $780,
600 francs from Germany since last
May. The funds were sent to HIM
from Baden-Baden, it is said.
Acting as intermediary between
the Berlin foreign office and the con-
splrators here, according to Koess
ler's revelations to the police, was
Herr Won Gruenelius, relative Of
former Imperial Chancellor Theobald
Won Bethmann-Hollweg. According
to the military authorities, koessler
has admitted having introduced Herr
Won Gruenelius to Deputy Jean
Longuet last summer while the lat
ter was spending few weeks vaca,
ton near Strassbourg. He says the
two had long conference.
M. Longuet, in an open letter to
the Matin, admits meeting Herr Won
Gruenelius, but asserts it was a So
cial visit and that no politics was
discussed He adds that the charge
is political manoeuvre on the part
Of his enemies on the eve of the cleo
tions."
Literature seized at the home Of
Koessler bore the caption, "The Neu-
trail Republic of Alsace-Lorraine,"
and called upon the population Of the
provinces to separate from France as
we'll as Germany.

Students, Too, Have
Strike Fever; Ask
For Five-E1Our Day

Madison, Ind, Oct. 22.--The local
high school was threatened recently
with a strike by the students, Who
demanded a five hour day, instead of
eight hours, which the study sche-
dule now provides. A petition,
headed "a Petition Of Right" was
signed by 1926 pupils and declared
that unless the t1ve-hour day was
granted by Superintendent Long, of
the city schools, that the pupils
would go on strike.
After a conference between Super
intendent Long and members Of the
high school faculty, it was announ-
ced that, if the strike materialized,
all pupils under IA years old would
be forced to return under the state
compulsory education law and those
more than IA years of age would be
locked out until such time as they
pledged themselves to abide by the
rules. When the hour set for the
the strike arrived, none Of the pupils
walked out.
Superintendent Long explained to
the pupils that the state law calls
for a certain number Of 40-minute
periods each day for a commission
ed high school. He said the sche-
dule as arraged allowed only for the
prescribed number of periods with on
ly Is minutes for passing from room
to room and the schedule could not be
shortened, without conflicting with
the state law. He promised, how
ever, to shorten the schedule next
term if possible.
Some of the signers of the petit
ton, when asked why they were de-
handing shorter hours, declared that
Staying in school so late spoiled the
entire day." They said their at
tempted strike was not connected
with the steel strike and that they
had no intention of trying to affiliate
with the American Federation Of
Labor.

Erzberger's Money
Scheme Gets Him
Into Trouble

Berlin, Sept. 29.-(By the Asso-
clated Press. )-Fimance Minister
Erzberger has been so assailed since,
under fire, he withdrew his plan of
calling in all paper money, stamping
it and issuing it again, that the Ber-
I'm political news agency comes to
his rescue with it's explanation of
why the scheme was abandoned.
The plan, says the news agency, in
volved the surrender of about 100000
100000 marks worth of notes of all
denominations, and Of course was
aimed at Turing out of their hiding
places the sums that had been saved
up and "put into the stocking"
The task of enforcing and conduct
ing the surrender and the physical
work of stamping each Of several
millions or billions of bills meant a
great deal of work for which men
were not obtainable.
More important perhaps was the
further fact that for a quick re6is-
tribution Of the money a large army
of guards would be necessary to es-
cort the new cash to every hamlet
and small town in Germany. 1t
would be impossible to send The
money in any other way, and even
under guard there was danger.
The agency cites the temptation
which great masses of money being
transported freely about Germany,
even under guard, would be to the
Spartacists and the Communists, not
to speak of the average German with
his greatly decreased morale since
the war and the revolution.
The stamping of money and curl
ties therefore can be CONSIDERED as
done away with, says the agency.
