New War Cloud
Threatens

Resumption of war on Ger
many, unless she signs the pro-
tocol, providing enforcement of
the peace treaty was indicated
in dispatches from Allied capi-
tails today.
A Paris cable said the Brit
ish and French military COM
mands, as the result of confer
ence yesterday, were prepared
to invade Germany in the event
of her definite refusal to sign.
Virtual ultimatum is to be
dispatched to Berlin within 4S
hours.
According to London, Field
Marshal Wilson. the British rep
resentative at the conference,
had offered cooperation of the
British fleet should force be en-
ployed against Germany. A
special meeting Of the British
cabinet was called today to con-
slider Wilson's report.
A representative of the State
Department at Washington said
that $4,000 American troops
now in the Rhine district would
be available for use by Mar
shall Foch IN the event hoshlities
were resumed.
Berlin reported that Allied
insistence on signing OF the
protocol probably would re-
suit in reorganization Of the
German ministry. German of
ficialdom still resents the ef-
forts of the Allies to force Ger
many to turn over docks and
merchant shipping in payment
for the sinking OF the interned
German feet at Scapa Flow and
even a reorgsnized cabinet, it
was said, might not consent to
sign the protocol as constituted
at present.

The Knights of Columbus had appro-
