bassadors and the Belgian Minister
today presented Chancellor Marx with
the allied governments identic note
regarding postponement of the evacu-
alton of the Cologne zone, which was
set for January 10 under the treaty
of Versailles.
Baron D'Abernon, the British Am
bassador, informed the German chan
cellor that the allied council of am
bassadors would dispatch a supple
mentary note concerning the Cologne
evacuation as soon as the military
control commissions full report had
been surveyed and examined. German
obstruction was given as the reason
why the control commission could not
submit a complete report before
January 10.
Visit Is Short One.
The visit of the allied ambassadors
at the chancellery consumed less than
90 minutes After their departure
Chancellor Marx, Foreign Minister
Stresemann and Minister Gessler pro-
ceeded to examine the note, which
comprised five typewritten pages.
