18 CONFESS PLOT TO ATTACK THE U.S. TROOPS Agitators Planned to Organize Spartacan Forces in Germany t'oblrns, March 25.—Three agita tors. admittedly Spartacan sjffnpa thizers, confessed to the American military authorities that they came into the occupied area for the pur pose of furthering a movement among the German workmen to or ganize Spartacan forces sufficiently that in time they would gain strength enough to attack the Amer ican soldiers and take possession of Coblenz banks and railway stations and receive assistance from unoccu pied Germany. Frederick Schwarzkopf, one of the leaders of the movement, was ar rested Sunday with six other agita tors. The military police now have nineteen Germans under arrest on various charges connected with ef forts to create unrest among civilian workmen. Schwarzkopf recently came to Coblenz from Berlin. He told the workmen he was one of the Spartacan group which stormed the palace of the former German Emper or. Original Plan* Failed The original plans were for an up rising on March 15 or the day after, according to those under arrest, but the plan fell through owing to lack of interest among the workmen. Schwarzkopf and the other leaders planned to attack the German police station, gain possession of arms, seize, the railway stations and tele graph office and later take charge of the banks and affairs generally. Schwarzkopf said he received thirty marks a day from the Spartacans for his work as an agitator. The Americans had full informa tion of the plans of the agitators early in March and soon began ar resting the leaders in the plot and also those who showed any sympa thy with the Spartacan movement. Secret reports to army headquar ters from various parts of the occu pied area are to the effect that the civilian laborers employed on the roads and varous jobs under Ameri can supervision have no intention to strike or to join the Spartacan move ment. Glass Makes Public Reply to McFadden Washington. Mar. 25. Secretary Glass made public a letter to Repre sentative McFadden. of Pennsylvania, replying to Mr. McFadden's inquiry of the authority by which Secretary Glass lias continued John Skelton Williams in office as comptroller of the currency and ex-otticio member of the Federal Reserve Board. Mr. Glass said his action was based on an act of Congress dated March 2, 1595, which was construed in 1906 by At torney General Moody to provide for continuance in office of all treasury officials after expiration of their term of office and before the appointment and qualification of their successors. The Senate failed to confirm the re nomiriation of Mr. Williams. Referring to Mr. McFadden's letter of inquiry of March 14. Mr. Glass said; "X am pleased to observe the omis sion from your second letter of the surprisingly offensive implications and accusations which appeared in the letter of March 14 which I felt obliged to return to you."

CARRY ON Fnele Sam is releasing from his service the men who went "Over there" to free tho world from autocracy. Thousands of soldiers are daily receiving their honorable discharge; they pocket their pay, bid farewell to tlieir comrades and sally forth—civilians. There is one army, however, which must not be demobilized. That is the army of the War Sav | ings Stamps buyers. More re . cruits are needed to carry on the I campaign of readjustment which I follows the signing of the armis ! tice. The army of fighters has achiev ed_ its purpose. The army of savers must remain in "action." "Carry on" to a lasting peace under the banner of W. S. S. Social Democratic League Urges Pardon For Eugene V. Debs New Yerk. Mar. 25.—A full pardon for Eugene V. Debs, former Socialist presidential candidate now under a ten years' prison sentence for viola tion of the espionage law. and amnes ty for all persons imprisoned for "honest expressions of opinion against America's cause in the war," were urged in a petition cabled to Presi dent Wilson by the executive commit tee of the Social Democratic League of America. The release of Debs was advocated on tiie ground of his advanced years, "high moral character and long years of devoted service to the cause of human freedom, notwithstanding his violation of law." In their plea for amnesty for other convicts under the war-time statutes, the petitioners excluded "those who defined the law or. purposelv aided the enemy." They added that Amer ica could "afford to be generous to honest opponents of her course, now' that victory has been achieved." See the "Madge Evans" Milan Hats DIVCS.
