GERMANY TO TAKE
YOUNG PLAN VOTE
Reichstag Votes Down Bill to
Reject Proposal for Debt
Settlement.
BY the Associated Press.

BERLIN, November 30.-The German
Reichstag today overwhelmingly voted
down the Nationalists' bill for rejection
of the Young plan, which had been
brought before the Reichstag after a
plebiscite had given it only a little
more than the necessary tenth of the
electorate
The bill will now be put before the
country in referendum, in which 1t
must obtain 1000 900 affirmative votes
This is generally conceded to be impos-
Sible, and the final defeat of the Nation
alists' efforts to block the Young plan
is expected on December %, when the
referendum is held
The Reichstag, after digesting the
eloquent speech of Foreign Minister
Curtius in favor of the Young plan,
dealt a heavy blow to Alfred Hugen-
berg and other Nationalist leaders
They failed to rally even the whole
strength of the parties that supported
the plebiScite.
The first of the four principal Sec
tions of the bill was defeated by 318 to
80 votes, with four abstentions. The
second was voted down by acclamation
and the notorious prison clause" got
only so votes. This clause exposed
ministers who signed the Young plan
to prosecution for high treason.
