London. March i5.
Germany has addressed q note to
Great Britain in which she protests
against the alleged Polish intimidation
of German voters in Upper Silesia,
where the plebiscite takes place next
Sunday.
British Foreign office information
from Upper Silesia admits that the
outcome OF the plebiscite Is extremely
doubtful. This information contains
no confirmation of reports of the con-
centration of large German armed
forces on the Polish frontier. but 1t
reveals that many Germans now out
side of Upper Silesia, but who are
qualified to vote in the plebiscite there
next Sunday, are planning to return
to the area TO vote in organized bodies
for their own protection.
Next Sunday promises certain live
liness In Upper Silesia, with the re-
suit of the voting spotty" one well
informed Foreign Office official here
ssid to-day.
The enforcement OF the allied sane
tions following the refusal of the Ger
mans to sign the reparations demands
and even the question of reparations are
overwhelmed al the present time by the
pending Upper Silesian plebiscite vote.
since the Germans have hungstheir Lon
don counterproposals In connection with
reparations on the condition that they
retain Upper S.lesia Now they are
plainly apprehensive over the result OF
the pleblscite voting. because, they say.
they fear the voting there cannot be
conducted without sinister influences
playing an important part.
In this connection THE NEW YORK
HERALD correspondent here learned that
the German note to Great Britain COM
plains against the alleged Polish intrni-
dation policy as being designed to pre-
vent Germans outside of Upper Siiesia
who have right to vote In the plebis-
cite from coming into the territory to
express their opinion at the polls. The
Germans assert that the Poles are using
drastic measures. such as physical force.
In addition to all manner of intimida-
ton, to keep these Germans from voting.
The Berlin Government wants an as
surance from Great Britain that these
German voters in Upper Silesia will not
be interfered with and that the plebiscite

of the Treaty Of Versailles,
