V
Copenhagen, March 13. German
government forces, after lively fight
ing, have succeeded , in driving the
Spartacans out of the east end sec
tion of Berlin, including Lichten
berg, according to a Berlin dispatch
filed Wednesday.
The occupation of the district, the
message states, was systematically
carried out by the government
troops. Considerable quantities of
arms were captured, the losses on
the government side are declared
not to have been heavy.
The bestial acts of cruelty by the
Spartacans have teen fully con
firmed. '
Spartacans Flee. '
Berlin, March 13. (By Associated
Press.) Spartacan forces, under
pressure from government troops
using artillery and mine throwers,
were abandoning their positions in
Lichtenberg this morning. The gov
ernment forces took a large number
of prisoners, many of whom were
executed summarily.
The government troops entered

Lichtenberg after bombarding the
main Spartacan nests. The Spar
tacans lied. The only chance the
Spartacans have of escape is by con
cealing their identity by mingling
with the peaceable inhabitants.
One group of 30 prisoners cap
tured included 10 women.
Torture Police.
In one Spartacan nest, it is re
ported, 20 Poles were captured. Gov
ernment soldiers report further de
tails of the torture and murder of
government soldiers and policemen
by the Spartacans.
The government has" issued a
notice that the seven depots of the
republican soldier guards have been
abolished and that any former mem
bers of these depots caught with
weapons will be executed. The gov
ernment is preparing to clean up all
Spartacan districts thoroughly.
Largequantities of arms and ammu
nition are' being discovered.
The Lichtenberg soldiers' and
workmen's council, which was com
posed wholly of independent social
ists and Spartacans, has been dis
solved. German Press Opposed to
Giving Danzig to Poland
Berlin, March 13. (By Associa
ted Tress.) Reports from Paris
that the peace treaty will provide
that Poland shall have Danzig and
that- a buffer state shall be formed
along the Rhine have stirred the
German press, both conservative
and radical.
"It-is to be hoped there is no
body in Germany who would suffer
such a treaty to be signed," says
the Tageblatt.
The Lokal Anzeiger says:
"We regard it a3 absolutely cer
tain that these demands will be re-'
jected if they are made." ' '
The newspaper says that if Dan
zig were given to the Poles they
would ect little enjoyment from it.
"This stolen property," it de-0
dares, "would burn their hands.

Planned Asylum in Sweden
Washington, March 13. William
Hohenzollern, two months before
the armistice was signed, planned an
asylum in Sweden, but was pre
vented from going to that country
by the Swedish government, diplo
matic advices made public today dis
closed. The former kaiser's plans had.
reached the point, the advices said,
where a deal was virtually closed
for him to rent Castle Stora Sundby,
situated on one of the large lakes
in the center of Sweden. The castle
is owned by old friends, Prince and
Princess Wedel.

before the war labor board.
Acceptance of an invitation to
both sides to submit their differ

day from the public service corpo
ration and it was decided to pro

ENGLAND PLANS
LICENSING OF

American Business Men View
With Alarm After the War
Economic Adjustment on
Manufactured Articles.
London, March 13. Free trade
newspapers, are sharply criticising
the government's policy regarding
importations as disclosed by Sir
Auckland Geddes, minister for na
tional service and reconstruction in
the House of Commons, Monday.
He said that all importations of
manufactured and semi-manufactured
commodities permitted to en
ter Great Britaifi will be controlled
by a system of special licenses un
til September 1, when the question
will be "reviewed."
The newspapers denounce this
proposal as an attempt to introduce
protection without any mandate
from the voters and insist that a
great majority of the voters are op
posed to a protective system. They
say that Great Britain gained its
commercial and financial supremacy
through free trade and can hold it
only by free trade."
Importers Uncertain.
From the viewpoint of importers,
the license system handicaps them
with all the disadvantages of a pro
tective tariff without the stabilizing
virtue of certainty. They say that
they do not know whether to plan
to do any business, because they
caniivi count on being licensed to
import any given quantity of prod
ucts. England is swarming with Ameri
can business men, who came over
fully expecting to re-establish their
old connections as soon as the vital
factor of tonnage permitted. They
have the tonnage now, but find that
official barriers have been erected
against their using it.
Some think they have a grievance.
They kept up their British establish
ments at loss during the war on the
expectation of doing business im
mediately after the close of the
struggle. The process of obtaining
important licenses is that each pros
pective importer must present his
case to the board of trade and to
the controller of imports.
Consider Each Case.
Each case is dealt with on its
merits, as the controller judges it
from the importer's standpoint and
thj board of trade's first consider
ation is whether the goods in ques
tion can be obtained from English
firms. If they can, the license is re
fused. Conspicuous among the American
products which find themselves
against what virtually amounts to a
Stone wall, are motors, boots and
typewriters.
The self-governing dominions of
Great Britain are exempt from the
difficulties the government's policy
imposes on foreign merchants.

ONE of the big advantages of Grant Trucks is their
handiness in tight quarters. We know of no other
trucks built that have so large a pay-load space as com
pared with the length of the truck, yet in the standard
models the body extends only 16 inches beyond the
rear springs.
In the modef 12 there is full seven feet, in Models 10 and 15
full nine feet, and in Models 11 and 16 full eleven feet of pay
load space back of the driver's seat.
Grant Trucks are built to give maximum loading space- with
out sacrificing convenience in getting into and out of narrow
alleys and driveways, badly placed loading platforms, crowded
yards, wharfs and warehouses.
Electric starting and lighting saves time and fuel, makes a
more serviceable, smarter and more efficient truck, and by en
abling you to get and keep a better class of drivers is valuable
insurance against accidents and carelessness.
Complete equipment means that first cost is
the final cost no extras to buy afterward.

cause it is a subject of greatest in
terest to business men everywhere
and a source of controversy be
tween different schools of British
economists. It is looked upon as the
beginning of an important chapter in
the after-the-war economic adjust
ment. The arguments of the free traders
have been roughly summarized by
th Morning Post, which is the
strongest protectionist paper -in
Great Britain. It also points out the
possible weakness of the temporary
licensing measure, saying: "Ve be
lieve the licensing system is a vici
ous system. It leads to favoritism
and corruption and leaves too much
discretion in the hands of the of
ficials. At the beginning of the war,
if the government had been honest,
it would have accepted the logic
of the situation and imposed a tarilT,
but sooner or later a tariff must
come."
