BAN ON INDEMNITY

Paris.-In the supreme council
Hugh C. Wallace, the American am
bassador, raised the question wheth'
er the council intended to maintain
the percentage previously adopted for
distribution among the allied and as
ISOLATED powers of the warship ton,
mage to be given up by Germany
Receiving an answer in the affirmative
Ambassador Wallace informed the
council the Emitted States, in That case,
waived it's claim to any part of this
tonnage.
Consideration was given by the SUI
preme council to plan for the ap-
pointment of a committee of ambas-
sailors to complete the details for the
presentation and signing of the Hun
garian peace treaty and to carry
through the other unfinished bust
ness of the peace conference. The de-
cision, however, was left to the heads
of the governments of the principal
powers. The necessity for the return
bers of the council was advanced as
the reason why another organization
should be created.

MODS BATTLE m BERLIN
People Were Trying To Enter Build

Exploitation Law

Berlin.-Many persons were killed
or wounded in Berlin when the troops
fired upon or bayonetted demonstra-
tors who tried 10 rush the reichstag
entrances in protest against the ex'
ploitation law. The dispatch adds that
since noon, January u. crowds have
paraded the streets Of Berlin, follow
ing an appeal from Die Freiheit, the
radical Socialist organ, for wOrkmen
to demonstrate in protest against the
law.
Unrestricted Workers Council Bill
Big professions passed along the
streets converging into Koenigsplatz
from all quarters. Numerous factories
were obliged to close. The demon
strators bore flags inscribed I'VE De-
mand an Unrestricted Workers Coun
Gil Bill" Numerous speeches were de-
livered from the steps of the reich
stag sharply protesting against the
bill in its present form. The street
car service was partly suspended. the
men being on strike. The public Sc
curity police restricted themselves to
guarding the reichstag with strong
forces.
Ten Dead; Order Restored
Ten dead had been brought into the
court of the reichstag building, ac-
cording to an announcement made by
President Fehrenbach. The police re-
stored order before the reichstag build
ing. The so-called exploitation law
is an outgrowth of resolutions passed
by the Social Democrats at numerous
meetings last September endorsing a
system of workers and economic coun-
ellis as the first step toward sociallza-
tions. The speakers at the Septem-
Der meetings strongly condemned the
Soviet system.
Workmen Under Government Control
Attempts were made at the time to
disturb the meetings, but there were
no serious disorders. Recently the
government introduced a bill in the
reichstag which would place work
mems councils under government con
troll and the present demonstrations
were, apparently, a result OF this
measure.
