ALL US. RIGHTS
RECOGNIZED
AS Affirmed Under the
Unratified Treaty of
Versailles
OF NATIONS
IS DISAVOWED
AS Far AS u. S. Is Con-
cerned, In New Treaty
With Germany

Washington, d. C., Aug. 26.-Ful
title ito all the rights, privileges, in
IDENTITIES, reparations or advantages
specified for the United States under
the unratified treaty of Versailles, is
re-affirmed in the separate treaty with
Germany signed yesterday at Berlin
Both by blanket declaration and
specific enumeration the treaty recog-
nizes the claim of the American govern
ment to these benefits and at the same
time disavows on the part of the
United States any responsibility for
provisions OF the league of nations
covenant, the Shantung settlement, or
the political e.alignments of Europe,
BY the state department officials,
the treaty is considered a full settle
ment, making possible not only a re-
sumption of diplomatic relations but
large measure of commercial inter
course as we'll as through reaffirma-
Non of the economic and financial con
cessions of the pact of Versailles
There was every indication to-day
that efforts would be made by the ad
ministration to secure Senate ratiii-
cation as soon as possible after Con
gress reassembles after the recess, so
that the long delayed rapproaehment
with Germany might become an ac
complished fact Such commercial and
supplemental treaties as may be found
necessary can then be negotiated
through the ordinary diplomatic chan
nels.
With the treaty signed and await
ing Senate action, there was a renewal
of speculation here regarding a possible
peace declaration to carry into effect
the declarations of the congressional
peace resolution No official would in
dicate whether the proclamation might
be expected to precede ratification.
Another question which remained un-
answered from any authoritative
sources related to the probable duration
Of the American occupation of German
No direct mention is made
in the treaty of the withdrawal OF
American troops from the Rhine though
here is reaffirmation of the section
IF the Versailles treaty which permits |
-he recent enemies of Germany to |
maintain forces on her border at her |
expense during the period allowed for
oayment of reparations.

failed and advocated its abandonment.
Some time prior to the armistice he
published book in which he outlined
plan for league of nations.
Erzberger was elected member Of the
national assembly from Wuerttemberg
in January, 1919, and in June became
vice premier and minister of finance
In the latter office he formulated the
vast income tax and capital levy plan
which he declared was necessary to en-
able Germany to pay her indemnities
to the entente and to rehabilitate her
self financially. 1t was claimed that
his levy on German capital would
greatly reduce the huge fortunes of
German war profiteers and industrial
leaders.
Herr Erzberger retired from the cab
met shortly after he recovered from
the attack made upon him by Won
Hirschfeld,. who was sentenced to lSI
months imprisonment for the crime. He
in private life for time, but
was elected to the Reichstag in June,
1920.
Latterly charges of sending capital
abroad and other offenses were mdje
against him by political opponents
and last May the Reichstsg lifted his
immunity. In the same
month he made a political speaking
tour of western Germany and was re
ported in all Berlin dispatches to have
advocated the seizure of privately |
owned gold and silver, the immediate
imposition of capital tax levy and
the enforcement of several socializa
lion schemes.
The libel suit against DR.. Helfferich
was won by Herr Erzberger on only !
,ne count, the former being held to
nave failed to prove that Erzberger in
ended to denounce DR.. Helfferich to
he entente. DR.. Helfferich was fined
100 marks and costs.
