WEEK OF MOURNING"
DECREED IN GERMANY.

Berlin, May l0.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press.)-A week of mourn
ing has been decreed by the gov
ernment to give expression to the
sorrow and depression" called
forth by the announcement of the
peace terms. The week will begin
Sunday
The decree provides that public
frivolity must be stopped for a
period of eight days. Its provisions
affect the frst-class theaters as well
as the popular cabarets. Dancing
horse racing and gambling will be
suppressed and the occasion prob
ably will be used to put definite
end to the gambling frenzy which
is holding greater Berlin in its
tentacles.
A season of soul searching would
seem to be the most probable
reaction to the frivolity and gam
bling which has been in progress
On the day the peace terms were
published here the Karlshorst race
track took in more than 10000
marks in gate receipts, while the
betting sheds distributed 3,50000(
marks. ~
During the week of mourning the
cabinet expects that the federated
states will give loyal cooperation
to its endeavor to have every city
town and hamlet observe the oc.
casion.

enough to enable him to deliver his
speech TO the allies at the Versailles

This is on the authority of his
secretary, who has been clipping
and translating comments from the
English papers. sharply reproaching
the count for remaining seated when
speaking.
His secretary, being asked by a
member of the delegation what
Count Won Brockdorff Rantzau
thought of this, made answer:
'It was because he was master OF
his voice and not of his legs"
