DOMINANT POWER FOR
LABOR IN GERMANY
Concessions Wrested by General
Strike Provide for NationaIi-
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 (Ebert) gov
ernment and forcing concessions which
make Germany all but a radical labor
republic.
Here are the main concessions made
by the spokesmen of the Social Demo-
| Gratis on behalf of the Ebert govern
ment-concessions which must be rati-
fed by that government:
One-Organized 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 illustrate: The ministry Of
| finance has more than 100000 en-
ployees. Should the finance minister
displease these employees, they,
| through the medium of the central la
Dor body, shall have the power to re-
move him.
Two.-Severe punishment of DR..
Wolfgang Kapp, Gen.. Baron Won Luett-
witz and all their military and civil
associates in the coup of a 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.
Reinstatement of all persons
dismissed for political reasons.
Five.-New working mems and well
fare laws.
Six.-Immediate convening of 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-
trio power companies, etc.
Seven.-Rigorous seizure of all con-
cealed foodstuffs.
Eight.-Severe measures against
profiteers.
Nine.-Reorganizati 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 demobilization of the
national guard and substituting there
for a new force headed by a league of
| radical officers who would be supreme

navy department. The vessels include
the German dreadnought Frankfort
and three destroyers. The ships must
be destroyed within a year, and it is
the intention of this government to
study their construction carefully ana
then to use them for targets during
naval maneuvers.
Tariffs on wood pulp would be sus-

A joint resolution declaring the war
with Germany at an end is the next
step to be taken by Congress in sup
port of the senates rejection of the
peace treaty.
By the vote of 40 ayes to 80 noes
the Senate rejected the resolution to
ratify the German peace treaty. The
motion required two-thirds majority
to carry and failed to receive it. Ii
all senator's had been in their seats
and voting the result would have been
ayes 81, noes 80. AS sixty-four votes
were required to ratify the treaty,
even this was seven votes short of the
necessary number.
A resolution proposing a constitu-
tional amendment for the direct elec-
ton of Federal Judges was introduced
by Senator La Toilette (Wis). 1t
was referred to the Judiciary Commit
tee.
On the resolution of ratification
fourteen more Democrats voted to
accept the treaty with the Lodge
reservation than on the occasion of
the former vote.

Sen, NEWBERRY GIVEN
TWO YEARS And FINE
He and Sixteen Others Convicted
of Conspiracy in Michigan
Election Fraud Case.

Grand Rapids, Mich.-Truman d.
Newberry, United States senator from
Michigan, was sentenced to two years
Imprisonment in the Federal Pen1ten-
tiary at Leavenworth, Kan, and fined
$4,000, following his conviction ny
jury of a charge of violation of the
corrupt practices act during the cam
paign of 1918. Senator Newberry said
that he did not contemplate resigning
at present.
Sixteen followers, convicted with
him of fraudulent practices in the
same campaign, received sentences
ranging from that given Senator New
berry to fine of $1,000 imposed on
George S. Ladd Sixty-day stays of
execution were granted by Judge Clar-
ence w. Sessions to permit appeals,
and bonds were furnished for all by
the senator.
The others were sentenced as fol-
lows: Frederick Cody, two years, $1O,-
600; Paul II. King, two years, $4,000 I;
Charles A. Floyd, two yearsA $4,000 :;
William Nickel, two years; Allan Tenn
pleton, one year and six months
Roger Andrews, one year and six
months; Milton Oa1man, one year and
six months; Richard Fletcher, one
year and three months; James F. Nc
| Gregor, one year and three months
John S. Newberry, $4,000; Harry o.
Turner, $1,000; B. f. Memery, $1,000 ;
Fred Henry, one year and three
months; H. Hopkins, one yea- and one
day; E. V. Chilson, one year and one
day, and George S. Ladd, $1,000.
SiXty-eight of the eighty-five defend
ants in the case were found not guilty
on each of two counts.
Originally there were 123 active de-
PENDANTS, but the number narrowed
| down to 81 before the case was given
| to the jury.
Before sentences were pronounced
Judge Sessions instructed the convict
ed men to take their places in court.
With Senator Newberry on the ex-
treme left, the II men lined in row
were individually asked if they had
| anything to say why sentence should
not be read. No one responded, and
the judge proceeded.
"You, Truman H. Newberry," he pro-
nounced in solemn tones, "shall be
taken from here and confined in the
Federal Penitentiary at Leavenworth
for the full period of two years and
shall pay fine of $4,000"
Indications are that the appeal will
be sought chiefly on grounds concern
ing the constitutionality of the corrupt
practices act as applied to primary
elections. 1t is assumed, however, that
reversible errors in court rulings also
will be alleged.
