A new German cabinet is to have the task of rendering a decision on the allied reparation terms, according to a state- ment made in the reichstag today by Chancellor Fehrenbach. After saying that the English text of the allled protocel had reached Thurs- day evening, the chancellor added: ““The cabinet will prepare most care- fully all the material and data on which a decision will be the task for the new cabinet.” The chancellor then referred td the disorders in Upper Silesia. A statement by him that the German government was prepared to dispatcy Reichswehr into the Upper Silesian re- volt area if the allies were unable to cope with the situation there, brought the commumists and independent social- ists to their feet in a desperate endeavor to_debate the issue. President Loebe of the chamber, how- ever, succeeded In diemissing the house just as a communist rushed up to the speakers’ stand to move discuselon, the needed votes for which were available among the radical parties. Otherwise the chancellor’s statement of the government's procedure in the Up- per Silesian situation provoked express- sions of approval. He charged the al- lise with disregarding Germany's repeat- ed warnings, which he said were based on Polish machinations onenly carried out along the frontier and 1 § purpose of which wag obvieus.

P.)—Fighting between _the Italians and the Poles at Rybnik, Pless and Gross Strehlitz _continued today, with the sitwation at Rybnik increasingly menacing to the allied forces, according to reports received this afternoon by th inter-allied commission. The Ialians are known to have lost thirty men killed and seventy wounded, and in French quarters it is estimated that the allied casualtiesi since the up- rising began have been seventy killed and an_unknown number wounded. The Poles today resumed their artil- jery attack on.Gross Strehlitz and twice advanced into the city, but were thrown back by the Italians. Elsewhere the Poles are reported to have “consolidated their positions.’ The French authorities heard a rumor today that 150 German (green) police had crossed the frontier. The report was discredited. Germans have occuied Oberglogau, which the allies evacuated yesterday. The inter-allied commission today re- celved a dispatch from London saving that the supreme council had postponed making public the decisions of the plebi- scite officials, hoping that this would tend to allay the Polish activities when it became general known. HOUSE TO SPEED UP THE REDUCTION OF ARMY Washington, May 6.—The heuse showed its determination today to speed up re- duction of the size of the army to 150,000 men by agreeing to an amendment to the army appropriation bill designed to facili- tate the discharge of enlisted men. Of- fered by Representative Hull of lowa, the amendment directs the secretary of war to grant applications for discharge “‘under reasonabel regulations” prescribed by the war department. It was adopted 105 to 91 The house also approved another amendment offered by Mr. Hull to discon- tinue payment of a $30 bonus to soidiers Who re-enlist. It was estimated that in normal times it costs $1,800.000 a year to pay such bonuses.

May §—The movement to plant memorial trees along the national highways as memorials to men who gave service in the world war was endorsed by President Harding in a letter written to Joseph M. Patterson, one of the editors of the Chicago Tribune, and made public tonight at the White House. “A general adoption of this plan,” Mr. Harding wrote, in part, “would, in the coming years, be noted as one of the use- ful and beautiful ideas which our soldiers brought back from France.” GOV.

His mother was American and his father French. He has many relatives in the United States. Germany had addressed to the allfes on Thursday, in which attention was call- ed to the heavily armed and organized Polish bands terrorizing the peaceable population in Silesia, forcibly preventing mining and work in other indusfHes. The insurrection In Silesia, said the chancellor, was spreading. Korfanty was claiming the supreme authority, while the inter-allied commission was unable, he declared. to prevent the movement, which, obvicusly had been long prepared. 2 The chancellor asserted that the Gar- man government had requested the al- lies to reinforce the troops in Silesia so that the revolt might be suppress and order restored. Germany was will- Ing. he. added, to help bring about nor- mai conditions in the disturbed area. It was necessary, Dr. Fehrenbach con- einded, to decide whether Germany must fake measures to protect the upper Si- lesian population ; meanwhils the Relchs- wehr would be held ready to carry out promptly whatever steps the situation required as a result of the German note. BELTEVE GERMANY WILL AGREE TO ALLIED TERMS Duesseldorf, May §.—(By The A. P.) —Preparations for the occupation of the Rhur are proceeding, although the gen- eral impression here s that Germany will agree to the allied terms at the cleventh hour. Two full divisions of cavalry are now at Duesseldorf under General Hen- nocque, who is in jmmediate command of operations. He is organizing to effect occupation, if necessary, between sun- rise and sunset of May 13, first covering the heart of the industrial region with mounted forces and gradmally replactng them with infantry.

The language of Sir James on- this point, it was declared, was as deci sive and emphatic as anyiming Premier Lioyd George has said on the same sub- ject, and hence mno progress was pos- sible either with the premier or the peo- ple of Ulster along the lines of the Sinn Meiner's present policy.

ARGUMENTS BEFORE THE RAILROAD LABOR BOAED Chicago, May 6.—Labor's charges of financial mismanagement by railread managements were declared irrevelant, visionary and failacious today when rep- resentatives of eastern roads began their closing arguments before the railroaad labor hoard in the wage reduction hear- ing of neaarly 100 roads. The exhibits by W. Jett Lauck in be- haif of the railway unions came under fire from E. H. Senneff, counsel for the Pennsylvania, John C. Walker, speaking for all eastern roads, C. L. Bardo, in behalf of the New England roads, and Jacob Aronson, counsel for the New York Central. Charges of past financial mismanage- ment was ‘water over ths cam,” Mr. Senneft said, adding that the interstate commerce commission now controlled all financial transactions. Mr. Walker said that “from weading Mr. Lauck’s ex- hibits, one might get the impression that American railroads are antiquated and inefficiently managed.” He denied such presumptions, he said. Regarding the consolidation of the New York Central and the Hudson River railroad in 1862, Mr.' Aronson said the supreme court justified the scrip stock issue which the unions charred wae used to_Inflate the capital siock. The consolidation of 1814 in which the Lake Shgre and Micnizan Centra! were brought under New Yo Central control showed ‘“extreme conservatism” he continued. ““The bold conclusions on ine finzncial performance of railroads,” he continued, “appear to be predicated (o - iarger ¢x- tent upen the novel assurantion that wn- distributed surplus constiture capital.

Mr. Fletcher asserted that congress was pursuing a wrong policy to enact tar- iff legislation of any kind under the present disturbed conditions and added that the farmers whom the bill s clai ed to aid “will be dillusioned before its six_months of life is over.” Mr. Gerry inquired why President Harding did not make his policies “con- form.” Teferrinz 1o the presidents ex- pression of iriendship for South and Central America which he said was out of line with a declaration of a tarft barrier azainst Canada.
