Will Not Accept Order for
Dissolution Of Her

WANTS TO RETAIN EN-
TIRE GENERAL STAFF
Request for Modification of
Terms Is Sent to
Paris

Paris, April 2l--6ermany has asked
the interallied conference at San Reno
to increase from 100000 to 100000 men
the standing army provided for Ger
many by the terms of the treaty Of
Versailles.
The request was contained in a note
handed to the French foreign office last
night with the demand that it be sent
to the supreme council at San Reno.
The note set forth that an increased
force WAS necessary for the nlainte-
nance of order in the interior and that,
furthermore, the army would not ac-
cept an order for its dissolution
The note further requests that Ger
many be allowed to retain the entire
general staff of corps and officers.
which means the entire framework Of
the active army 1t proposes that the
forces she is permitted 10 maintain be
divided as follows;
Twelve divisions Of infantry. with

sions of cavalry, five special brigades.

infantry and two groups of artillery.

Two other German notes were hand
ed to the foreign Office at the same
time, The first agreed to the dishand
ment Of the civic guards a. demanded
by the allies. 1t has already been
made public.
The second note embodied requests
that the Reischwehr force in the neu-
trail zone should be fixed according to
the number of men instead of the mum
Der of units, and that Germany be al
lowed to have eleven batteries of ar
tillery instead of two in the neutral
zone.
In French official circles the German
requests are considered as merely one
more move i'll the systematic offensive
against the treaty OF Versailles. 1t
was pointed out in this connection that |
if Germany were allowed to retain the |
general staff and the corps of officers |
The German army would differ from /
