DOMINANT POWER FOR
LABOR IN GERMANY
Concessions Wrested by General
Strike Provide for Nationali-
zation of Industry.

Berlin.-After seven days of the
most complete general strike in his
tory, it was called off. This strike was
the effective weapon of the German
working masses in rising and first
forcing out the militarist usurpers and
then turning on the old (Eber) gov
ernment and forcing concessions which
make Germany all but a radical labor
republic
Here are the main concessions made
by the spokesman of the Social Demo-
Gratis on behalf of the Ebert govern
ment-conceSsionS which must be rati-
fed by that government:
One.-OrSaniZed labor is given what
Is tantamount TO the power of vetoing
all ministers. No ministers are to be
named that are Objectionable to them.
Two illustrates The ministry of
finance has more than 100000 en-
ployees. Should the finance minister
dlspleaSe these employees, they,
through the medium of the central la
Dor body, shall have the power to re-
move him.
Iwo.-Severe punishment of DIR.
Wolfgang Kapp, Gen. Baron Won Luett-
witz and all their military and civil
associates in the coup of week ago.
Three.-A thorough housecleaning
of all governmental and civil service
departments, including especially those
of the ministries of posts, railways. tel
egraphs and telephones, and the re-
moval therefrom of all non-republican
elements.
Four.-Reinstatem of all persons
dismissed for political reasons.
Five.-New working mems and well
fare laws.
Six.-Immediate convening of a COM
mission to devise ways and means for
socialization and naturalization, and
immediate naturalization of all indus
tries ripe for it," such as mines. elec-
URIC power companies, etc.
Seven.-Rigorous seizure of all con-
cealed foodstuffs.
Eight.-Severe measures against
profiteers.
Nine.--Reorganlzation or creation of
all military formations and units by
the Republican Officers League.
The ninth is one of the most impor-
tant concessions. 1t could be inter
preted as the rehabilitation of the
national guard and substituting there
for a new force headed by league of
radical officers who would be supreme.

Washington.-In an informal confer
ence Of members of the House foreign
affairs committee and Republican
leaders in Congress, it was decided to
report simple resolution to the
House, declaring the war with Ger
many at an end.
Before he left for short vacation,
Senator Lodge agreed to the form Of
the resolution which, he thinks. would
meet with the approval of the Senate
1t does not carry any of the provisions
OF Senator Knox's resolution regarding
peace terms. and aims TO avoid all CON
stitutional entanglements. by terse
declaration that war with Germany is
brought to an end
Inasmuch as the President has full
authority under the constitution to ne
gotiate peace. the resolution will avoid
any reference to peace terms and will
not call upon Germany to be bound by
the terms of the Versailles peace
treaty
In the opinion of constitutional au-
thorities, Congress. which declares
war by a joint resolution, can declare
1t at an end, provided this action does
not trespass upon the province of the
chief executive regarding peace ne
gotiations
There is a widespread feeling among
Democratic members of the House for
peace. Unless the President should
exert his influence against the adop-
tion Of such a resolution, it is predict
ed it would be accepted by the House
by large majority.
