HELGOLAND, Germany, July % (By
The Associated Press 1.-THE people Of
Helgoland Lave sent petition to the
League Of Nations asking for neutral
ization of the faland under protection
of the league or remuneration to Great
britain. They express high hopes that
the September meeting Of the league
will relieve them OF German control,
which natives of Helgoland born under
the British flag declare to be highly
offensive and in violation of many Of
the terms Of the agreemen under
which England ceded the island to Ger
many in 1890 in exchange for Zanzibar.
A committee of 62 residents of Hell
goland, comprising represen tatives of
various organizations of the island,
visited Berlin under the Craftsmanship
OF August Kuchlenz, and conferred
with the Allied Disarmament Commit
tee in an effort to correct what they
declare to be the great error of the
Allies in leaving Helgoland to Germany
under the Versailles Treaty.
Reid Menace in War.
Recently the natives of Helgoland
were much encouraged by the report of
Chief Engineer Savers, of the British
Admiralty, who after investigating the
destruction of the fortifcations of
Helgoland, now in progress, was al
legged to have declared that the island,
even after being dismantled, should be
taken from Germany to prevent it's
possible refortifcati for use as a
submarine and airplane base.
The destruction of the fort and
naval harbor of Helgoland is pro-
crossing under the direction of AL
lied officers, but two years more will
be required for the complete destruc-
ton Of the Notifications and improve
ments upon which Germany expended
100000 gold marks. The cost of de-
struction, which Germany also has to
bear, is estimated at 100000 gold
marks. Germ ans working on the dis
mantlement were sent from the main
land, and the islanders say the German
officials are endeavoring to colonize so
as to outvote the native population.
The native Helgolanders, however,
hold the balance of power, having
elected six of the nine members of the
island council.

and were given papers showing them
to be Of English birth. They were
watched as spies. In January and
February of 1917, when Cuxhaven, En-
den and Wilhelmshaven were frozen
in, the Helgolanders say the German
submarines operated from Helgoland
alone. Consequently, they insist that
the base is SO important to the peace
of the world that it should not remain
German territory. The failure of Lord
Salisbury, British Prime Minister at
the time Helgoiand was coded to Ger
many, to stipulate that Helgoland
should not be fortified by the Germans
is bitterly denounced by the islanders,
who say the British officials were SO
eager to acquire Zanzibar and carry
out Cecil Rhodes's Cape to Cairo
scheme that they permitted menace
to the British navy to be created.

his next pro lction, due to impending
censorship in New York and other
states. Elaborate preparations for an
unusual Interpretation of the great
German classic have been put away
until a firmer stability returns to the
official attitude toward motion pic

Mr.. Griffith had planned to go to
Germany to take many of the scenes,
and had the cast largely selected, but
with the certainty of New York hav-
ing an untried censorship and a grow

abandoned the risk of investing prac-

While Faust is read in nearly ev-

a sensitive and emotional state that
argues against such a production at
