 PROPAGANDA MOVE
Picture Them as WelI-Fed While Others
 StarVe

Berlin, March IS. A sudden and Widespread revival of the anti. semitic movement made itself felt today when at intervals throughout the day leaflets were distributed pro testing against the presence of Jews in public offices and attempting to inflame the public mind by cartoons picturing the German people as starving in a cage while well fed and prosperous Jewish merchants look on and are made to say:
 Don't feed the animals"
 Prominent Jewish residents are outspoken in expressing their serious apprehension over the recurrence of the movement at this time.
 The Baltic troops, which made such sanguinary departure from the city, are accused of taking a leading part in the agitation. and numerous melting handbills are attributed to them. AmoEg the anti-semitic street speakers were Baltic officers and en listed men.
 Since the first German revolution in November 1918, it has been esti- mated that about 80,0O0 Jews from Russia, Poland, Galcia and East Prussia have come to Berlin. The Jewish population of the capital is now estimates at 210,000 persons.

J. s, PROTESTS PLAN
 TO SELL CERTAIN
 GERMAN PROPERTY
Disposal of Holdings in Neu. tral Countries
 Opposed

! Washington, March ."Stronp
 remonstrations' have been made by
 the American government agains,
 rulings of the allied reparations com
 mitte that under the peace treaty
 sale of certain Germany propert.7 ,
 in neutral countries can be forced if necessary to satisfy the initial payment of German indemnities. Under-Secretary Polk, of the state department, writing today to Sena- 1 tor Henderson, democrat, Nevada, said "a further protest was in pre- paration as such a controversy in the peace treaty was contrary to an official interpretation of exchange between Germany and the allied powers"
 MT. Folks letter, was in response to an inquiry by Senator Henderson regarding reports that Great Brit aim has reported that German prop. erty and all the rights of German citizens in enterprise in South Amer ica be taken over by the commission and subsequently transferred to Great Britain as part of the indem- nity due it by Germany.
 MT. Polk said the state depart ment had no information as to this, bu; added:
 "There has been received, however, certain information having relation to your inquiry to the effect that the allied government represented on the reparations committee have advanced and provisionally adopted a construction of article 235 which would empower the reparations com mitte to demand payment by Ger many of the initial 20 billion gold marks in any commodities, gold, ships or otherwise, which the re- parations commission may desire and in the exercise of this power the commission may secure German property in neutral countries at least if in the form of credits or securities. Under such power it is possible that the sale to the repara- tions commission of the securities controlled by German corporations enterprises in South America might be made"
 Nevertheless strong remonstra- tions have been made and further protest is in preparation on the ground that the assumption and use of such powers is discrimination to general economic reconstruction, offers an opportunity to the govern ment dominating the reparations commission indirectly to exercise a dangerous controlling influence on provisional trade with Germany anl incidentally is unwarranted by the terms of the treaty and contrary to the spirit if not infringement of terms given German before signing the peace treaty."
 Senator Henderson said the official interpretation by MT. Polk was con- tained in formal notes exchanged between Germany and the allies in which the understanding reached that the property of German citiezns in neutral countries could not be taken. The senator said that i'm quiries at the state department dis closed that no replies to the United States protest had been received.
