HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
NOW UP TO THE
| ALLIEDMISSIONS
i Germans Say They Arc Not
Hindering Work on the
Treaty Demands
Parts, Dec. 26.—The final ilate of
the repeatedly postponed exchange
: of ratifications of the treaty of Ver
sailles now depends upon the speed
with which the Allied missions in
i Germany can verify the German
figures of available floating dock
| tonnage demanded by the Allies as
compensation for the sinking of the
; German warships at Scapu Flow.
| The Associated Press was informed
|to this effect at the headquarters
of the German peace delegation.
Baron Von Lorsner, head of the
German representatives, said he
thought this would take at least a
fortnight, If not longer, in view of
the difficulties of transportation in
Germany and the detail involved in
verifying the figures.
"A decided misunderstanding is
reflected in the Paris press during
the past two days regarding my pro
jected trip to Berlin, which 1 subse
quently abandoned," he said. "My
object was to hurry, rather than de
lay, tlie putting of the Versailles
treaty into effect. From Monday
night until Wednesday afternoon at
two o'clock I was deprived of any
| communication with my government
by either telegraph or telephone, in
consequence of which Berlin had no
knowledge of the Kntente note or
of the verbal communication given
on this subject by M. Putusta (sec
retary of the peace conference) until
this morning.
Favor Early Peace
"1 thought, that u trip fo Berlin
and a verbal explanation of the situ
ation to the government would fa
cilitate matters. The inference by
the French papers that the German
government wanted to delay the ex
change of ratifications is absolutely
unfounded. We want nothing more
than effective restoration of pence.
"Peace means the repatriation of
our soldiers, prisoners in France,
who are obliged to spend another
Christmas in captivity though hos
tilities have been suspended for
more than a year.
"The fact that' Uorr Von Simaon
arrived in Paris last Sunday to start
negotiations for putting the treaty
into effect proves that we had no
intention to delay matters."
Regarding the Kntente note. Baron
Von Lersner said its tonor sur
prised him. as it seemed so little in
accord with the progress of the ne
gotiations.
"The Paris press." he said, "e\en
announced readiness to deliver over
all the harbor material we could
spare without endangering our eco
nomic existence us compensation for
the Scapu Flow sinkings, and fore
cast an early agreement on this
question. If we did not get that far,
it was not our fault. Our experts
have not been asked to talk the mat
ter over since a week ago.''
Baron Von Lersner asserted that
according to the verbal communica
tion of M. Dutasta at the time of the j
delivery of the note, the Kntente
made a diminution in the port ton
nage demanded, conditional upon j
verification of Germany's claim that j
the Kntente estimates of the harbor I
Material available were erronetfiTß.*"" |
French Stories Disloyal. Charge
"1 want to say in this connection," |
he continued, "that the statements i
in the French press that we wore
disloyal and gave out wrong figures ;
on this tonnage is absolutely un- '
founded. This the Investigation
would prove. I promised M. Dutasta
to ask my government to give all
facilities for such investigation, and
have no doubt that they will be ac
corded at once.
"We both agreed that it should be
possible in a short time to verify our
statements and come to a definite
agreement regarding harbor ma
terials to be delivered by Germany,
t hope that our expectations will
soon be fulfilled and that peace will
finally be put into effect.
After the chief of the German
delegation had informed M. Dutasta
that ho thought it advisable to go to
Berlin, communication by special
wire was restored, according to the
information given out ut the head
quarters of the German delegation
and it was decided to telegraph the
note and verbal communication,
which, taking into consideration the
time for coding, transmission and
decoding, could not come to the
knowledge of the German govern
ment before the morning of Decem
ber 25. t
Ten Lassies, Who
Cross the Sea to Wed,
Get Chilly Welcome
Philadelphia. Dec. 26. —lt is an
unusual 'trip when Captain Jones, of
the American liner Havel-ford, does
not bring at least one or two Kng
lisli lassies who are destined for
whajt some folk call the gamble of
matrimony. Yesterday there were
ten of these women on the liner,
which came in from Liverpool two
days late, owihg to severe gales en
countered on the voyage und fog
and snowstorms met when the ship
was nearing the Delaware capes.
While the other 316 passengers
were rejoicing over the fact that
the Haverford had reached port in
time for them to come ashore on
Christmas Day .the happy anticipa
tion of the tpn young women came
unpleasantly to naught, for the day
at least, as their prospective hus
bands failed to be on hand to meet
them when the ship docked.
Ukrainians Protest
Delivery to Poles
Washington, Dee. 26. Protest
against the action of the Supremo
Council ut Puris in granting to Po
land mandatory powers for twenty
live years over the territory of East
ern Galicia, 65 per cent, of whose
population claim to he Ukruin'ans, is
made by Julian Batchinsky, dip
lomatic representative of the Ukra
intng Peoples' Republic.-
Appealing for the right of self-de
termination of people, Mr. Batch
insky in his memorandum made pub
lic to-day, cited the action of the 3.-
500,000 Ukralnins of Eastern Gali
cia .who had proclaimed through
their legislative body the desire for
a union with the former Ukrainian
provinces of Southern Russia, now
known as the Ukrainian Peoples'
Republic. i
The fact that the mandate over the
territory was limited to twenty-five
years indicated the doubtful char
acter of Poland's title, in the opin
ion of the Ukrainian representative.
As evidence of the alleged abuse
Polish rule already had Inflicted. Mr.
Batchinskty enumerated the sup
pression of the Ukrainian language
and press and the suspension of all
Ukrainian schools.

-1 liter yesterday in his newest Para

i never offered a more enjoyable or
I more technically perfect perforni
j ance than does handsome Wallace
