GERMANY GETS
AN ULTIMA ton
Allies to Have 1000, 900 Tons
Monthly
TAKE STEINER STEPS
ENJOYS Allowed Day TO Decide-De
mands To Be Enforced BY
Occupation Of Mining
Areas,

Spa.-The Allies served an ulti
matum upon the German delegation to
the conference here Monday after
noon that the Germans must agree by
3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon to de.
liver to the Allies 100000 tons OF
coal monthly.
otherwise, the Germans were in
formed, the Allies will take meas.
ures to enforce the terms of the Yer
sailles treaty.
Thus, the negotiations with the
Germans have reached another tense
point. The spirit of Cancellation
adopted by both sides has prevented
break thus far, but the Allies found
it was necessary to issue this ulti-
matum for carrying out the treaty,
which would entitle them to a great.
er amount Of coal than is now de-
! handed.
The question of coal was the sub.
ject Of controversy during a three
hour session of Premier Millerand,
Premier Lloyd George, Count Sforza,
the Italian foreign Minister; Wis
count Chinda, japanese Ambassador
to Great. Britain; Premier Delacroix,
of Belgium; Konstatin Fehrenbach,
the German Chancellor, and DR.. Wal
ter Simons, the German Foreign Min
lister, who had with them only one
secretary each. .
The Allies began by insisting upon
a monthly delivery Of 100000 tons.
The German offered 100000 tons
and the Allies reduced their demand
to 100000.
The German Foreign Minister then
offered to increase the deliveries of
coal from 100000 tons to 100000
tons within six months, and to 1,70O,-
600 tons within year. This could
only be done, he said, if the Allies
made better food conditions possible
for the miners and contributed raw
materials to build houses for more
miners.
The Premiers, after prolonged dis
cussion with the Germans in a calm,
businesslike manner, informed Chan
cellor Fehrenbach and DR.. Simons
that the Allies must have their final
answer tomorrow.
If the German reply was rejection,
the Allies, it was declared, would
take measures to enforce their de-
mands either by occupation of min
ing territories or by sending their
own coal commission into Germany
to examine the situation in the min
ing regions.
The ultimatum was delivered in
the quietest tone by the Belgian
Premier, M. Delacroix. As the meet
ing dissolved the British Prime Min
lister said to DR.. Simons: Think
this over and come to our terms"

STORMY START
! FOR THIRD PARTY
Senator La Toilette Refuses
to Head the Ticket
PLATFORM IS TOO RADICAL
Senator Objects To The Platform
Ne Is Reported As Opposing
League. Irish And Soviet
PlAnkS.

Chicago, = After The important
groups gathered here 10 form new
party had brushed aside. as they
thought. all obstacles set up by the
views Of various leaders. had gathered
in the afternoon in joint convention
in Carmens hall. where the labor party
has been meeting. and listened to sew
eral hours Of oratory and then had
recessed for dinner with the intention
of nominating Robert NJ. La Toilette
for President, Senator La Toilette de-
c,ined the nomination.
When word first reached the leaders
early IN the evening that La Toilette
had asked to be excused from leading
the new political hope, they set to work
10 survey the situation and see If his
mind could not be changed, and, fail
ing that, t. move harmoniously to the
selection Ct substitute. But the more
they talked the less they seemed to
accomplish.
Word Of Senator La Follette's
declination came through his former
law partner Gilbert E. Roe; his son,
young Robert La Toilette, and spe-
cial messenger. who brought state
ment. written in the third person, In
which the Senator said in effect that
he appreciated the force of the great
new liberal movement inaugurated,
and that he was honored by the
thought of him as the standard-bearer,
but that he already was serving in an
important post and owed duty there.
The statement also suggested that it
was impossible to educate the people
in a large number of econ cmic subjects
in one campaign and that the platform
agreed upon might be too comprehens-
i've.
The understanding was that one Of
Senator La Follettes principal reasons
for declining was that the platform
was too radical-at least for the pur-
poses Of this campaign. The radical
ism Of the platform is attributed to
the Labor Party and when the news of
La Follette's stand became known the
Forty-eighters, whose group of Eastern
leaders have been opposing extremism,
put the situation up to the Labor Party
people,
His objections, it was reported, were
based principally on a foreign relations
plank which Endorsed league of ma
tons, favored recognition of Irish
freedom and Soviet Russia and lifting
of the Russian blockade, and on an
other plank advocating naturalization
Of all essential industries and raw ma
terials.
