Allies Warn Berlin
AS German Troops
Mass Neaf. Silesia
Poland Also Told Not to In
terfere in Plebiscite Sum
day to Decide Control
of B Bord er Territory

PARIS. March ls (By The Associated
Press The Council of Ambassadors
to-day handed a note to the German
plebiscite delegation here concerning
the concentration of German troops ON
the Upper SilesiAN frontier prelimi-
nary to the pIebiscite vote next Sunday.
The communication, which is couched
in terms similar to the warning sent
to Berlin on Thursday by the French
government, recalls that the mainten-
ance of order in Upper Silesia is ex-
clusively under the control Of the In
ter-Allied Commission. Germany, it
says, will be held responsible for any
disorders arising from The entry Of
armed German forces into the plebi-
scite area.
A similar note was sent by the coun-
Gil to the Polish plebiscite delegation.
The plebiscite will determine whether
Poland or Germany will hold sover-
eighty over Upper Silesis.
BERLIN, March 1s (By The Asso-
ciated Press s).-Reports of isolated
clashes in number of Upper Siles;an
districts have caused tne German gov
ernment to protest to the Inter-Allied
Commission in Oppeln against the re-
vival of what it terms Polish terror
ism"
In official quarters it was declared
to-day that several outrages had been
committed in the Rybnik district in the
past few days, houses having been
burned, one man murdered and others
beaten, but that news of the Incidents
had not been made public here in the
"fear that it would adversely affect the
tide of German voters pouring into the
plebiscite zone" For this reason the
contents of the governments note of
protest, which cited specific instances,
have not been made public.
Officially it is reported the situation
in Silesia generally is quiet, but ru-
mors persist that armed German and
Polish forces are gathering on the
frontiers in anticipation of fighting.
The German plebiscite propaganda or
ganixation has put out statement de-
.claring the Poles have begun agitation
for an extension of the Allied penal
ties to Upper Silesia in the event that
the Germans win.
The Inter Allied Plebiscite Commits
sion has ordered suspension of tele-
graphic communication with Upper
Silesia from Saturday to Monday.
Press kilograms are excepted from
the commissions order, but will be
subject to the approval of the authori-
ties in Silesia. The sale of wines and
other spirits probably will be prohibit
ed during the same period.
