SITUATION IN
SILESIA GRAVE
There Is Danger OF Out
break Between French
and German Armies
WHILE POLES ALSO
MENACE PEACE
Allied Army of 10000 Is
Needed to Cope With
Situation

0ppeln, upper Silesia, May Ter
man requests that the frontier between
Germany and Silesia be opened and
that all political prisoners held by the
allies in upper Silesia be released have
been granted by the interallied com
mission here. Decision whether the use
OF German government troops would
be permitted in Silesia and whether
the Polish frontier would be closed is
expected to-day.
An armored train was run from
Breslau to Krueseberg about 80 miles
northeast of here, by Germans last
night, and was turned over to allied
authorities. The allies accepted the
train in view of reports that the Poles
planned to attack kreuseberg to-day.
When Rosenberg was taken by the
Poles, a British major who was acting
as control officer was arrested by a
Polish leader, who was formerly q po-
lice officer under the command of the
major. The Polish leader ordered that
the major be shot, and detailed squad
OF FIVE men TO execute him.
As the squad took its place, the
major said: you do not dare to
shoot" whereupon the Poles lowered
their rifles and refused to fire.
The situation here has been made
more serious by the arrival OF hun
dreds OF refugees, who are walking
into the city from sections south and
east of here. Many of them have been
severely wounded, and they have ex-
cited the people with stories of Polish
brutalities. The refugees, augmented by
residents of Oppeln. held silent DEM
onstration yesterday afternoon, parad-
ing past the administration building.
Allied officials who are frankly ex-
pecting an outbreak, say they would
be unable to cope with an insurgent
German populace. Prince Hatfield,
German delegate of the interallied
commission, declared that every effort
was being made to hold back the Ger
mans, but that the danger was in
creasing hourly.
I'VE have asked the allies 10 increase
their forces here" he said. From 30,-
600 to 10000 soldiers are needed, and
needed badly, if the most serious situ-
alton is TO be avoided. We fully real
ize what the consequences of a fight
between Germans and French soldiers
would be, and we viii spare no efforts
TO stave off an incident which might
lead to war, and would certainly cause
widespread fighting among German ci-
villains and Poles
He added that, according TO German
information, there were at least 10000
Poles under arms in upper Silesia, led
by former Polish army officers and
well disciplined

DRIVING CHINESE TO WORK.
Are Forced to Attempt Harvest in
Famine-Strieken Region.

New York, May Hundreds Of
thousands of famine sufferers, who
were concentrated in refugee camps in
China during the winter. have been
compelled BY authorities TO return TO
their home provinces and attempt rails
ing new crops this year.
This action was taken. according 10
cable advices received from Pekin by
the China famine fund, because Off
cials considered it necessary for the
good Of the entire population that ef
forts be made for a harvest this year
throughout the famine area. As the
camp refugees were generally well fed
during recent months, they were picked
TO pass the summer months at their
former homes
Refugees who have already started
the homeward journey were supplied
with food and money by relief organ
izations. In many cases, the famine
victims were given food for two weeks
and funds to buy additional food for
a month. Seeds for planting were fur
nished in abundance.
transportation was furnished free
BY the railroads.

TRAIN WOULDN'T STOP.
And Luigi Romeri Got a Sideswipe
Down Bank.

Stop! Stop! shouted Luigi Romeri,
the North Main street restauranteur
and fruit dealer, beckoning at the
same time to the oneoming fiat cars
to 90 back so that his Ford truck
would not stand the crash of collision
on the Berlin street Central Vermont
railway crossing near Molla's store, but
his hand gestures and shouting were
to no avail and Romeri and his Ford
truck syerved down the steep incline
after the head freight car struck one
mudguard of the stalled ear.
Mr.. Romeri's companion Cocoa, the
patrons of Tosi's pool room call him) a
eolored waif who roamed into Barre a
few weeks ago and who makes his
headguarters Somewhere" in this city,
managed to Jump before the collision
came. The size of Romeri prevented
any possible chance he might have had
to get out of the car, and as the car
was swerved down into the ditch, Ro-
meri, wedged behind the wheel, went
with it. Fortunately, the car did not
overturn and little damage resulted.
One mudguard was damaged and the
windshield broken, but that was all.
Romeri's view of the oncoming shift
ing freight train in charge of Engi-
neer William Chayer and Conductor
John Emerson, was obstructed by sew
eral fiat cars loaded with granite, which
were sidetracked near the crossing. 1t
was in his attempt to shift gears to
climb the hill that his Fofd stopped
with the front wheels about four inches
from the first rail.

GER MANS ACT
LEISURELY
Party Leaders in Reichstag
Are Holding Separate
Conferences
TO DECIDE ATTITUDE
ON ALLIES DEMANDS
Rudolf Schwander Men
toned for the Position
of Chancellor

Berlin, May 7 (By the Associated
Pressl The Reichstag party leaders
held separate conferences to-day for
the purpose of determining their at
titude toward the foreign issues in
volved In the present crisis.
President Ebert and leading politi-
clans have not as yet been able to
agree on a psrliamentarian or man
who is out of public life who would
be willing to undertake the formation
of new cabinet. The personnel OF
the incoming ministry cannot be de
termined, even tentatively, until the
political parties interested have an
nouneed their position on the foreign
issues now engaging the attention OF
the Reichstag.
Rudolf Schwandcr is persistently
mentioned as an available candidate
for the chancellorship. He was for
merly governor Of Alsace Lorraine, and
is now president of Hesse- Nassau. He
is supposed to lean toward the demo
cratic party and is not opposed by DIR.
Gustav Stresemann, who is generally
expected to take the post of foreign
minister if his party enters the new
government.
The attitude Of the center party is
one of the chief enigmss of the situa-
tion. Early yesterday ii was believed
the centrists would joint the majority
socialists in forming a new cabinet
which would accept the allied condi-
tions in preference TO exposing Ger
many to occupation, and would trust
to the future progress Of events for
possible amelioration of the entente
terms.
This two party bloc, 1t was said
would be reinforced by the independent
socialists, who it was stated, were
willing To become reconciled 10 their
former comrades This would give the
centrist socialist bloc 237 votes out
of the 400 in the Reichstag. Such q
coalition would presuppose that the
Bavarian wing Of the eentrist party
would not balk and that the conserva'
tive section which has pot always been
in sympathy with the policies OF
Matthias Erzberger would also approve
of union with the socialists in the
present national emergency.
