PARIS.- June II. (By the Associated
Press.) A protocol to be added to th
peace treaty, explanatory of the six
points raised by the Germans, reads
- "Firstly, a commission will be named
by the allied and associated erovern
ments to supervise the demolition of
, the fortifications of Heligoland in con
formtty with the treaty. This commit
ion will be empowered to decide wha
part of the constructions protectin
the coast from erosion should be pre
served and what part demolished.
"Secondly, the sums which German
will have to refund to Its citizens to
Indemnify them for Interests they ma

CsatradletlM Is Denied.
Til the reply on the six other points
raised, the most Interesting question
dealt with concerns Germany's admis
sion to the leamie of nations. The re
ply denied the German declaration that
the term of the peace treaty with re
gard to the league are contradictory.
It Mrs the covenant of the league
declares that members of the league
hall take the necessary steps to assure
and guarantee the maintenance of lib
erty of communication and transit, and
also equitable commercial treatment of
all members.
"Germany when admitted to the so
ciety, the reply says, "will share In
the benefits of these stipulations with
other countries. Nevertheless, during
the period of transition following
peace It la necessary to take Into ac
count the special conditions which are
laid down on page 43 of the memo
randum. The obligations Imposed on
Germany are therein shown to have the
character of reparation measure and
their maintenance for five veers, far
from being Incompatible with the prin
ciple of equitable treatment, have a
their object to assure Che application
f that principle."

Germany cOuld not agree to surrender
for trial by the allies of the unnamed
military and political leaders, nor
would Germany subscribe to sole guilt
for the war.
For a time on Friday morning It ap
peared that the balk of the majority
socialists and clericals would agree on
a common formula for conditional sign
ing and the two parties together form
a new government without the partici
pation of the democrat on this con
ditional basis, subject to the mental
reservation that if the allies refused
their conditional signature, they would
end by signing the treaty uncondi
tionally, but under rhetorical protest.
But during Friday's proceedings both
the centrists and the majority social
ists lost their nerve it-hen they figured
out how small their majority would be
In the public showdown in the national
assembly. Both parties accordingly
shrank from shouldering the responsi
bility for signing. They tried all dur
ing the day to lure the liberals back
into the old government combination
and to re-establish the former large
coalition majority in the national as
sembly, but the liberal refused to come
in again, except on the basis of their
six points.
Saturday morning it appeared that
the liberals, clericals and majority so
cialists would agree on a formula' for
signing conditionally. These condi
tions Involved four principal points a
plebiscite In West Prussia, Immediate
admittance Into the. league of nations,
no subscription to sole guilt for the
war, and no surrender of the former
kaiser and the unnamed military and
political leaders, but with the promise
to place these latter on trial before a
German tribunal.

FALL OF GERMANY IS SAD
fCoetlaued Trtn First Pa-o
of th masses this majority had dis
integrated Into nothing mors than a
powerful and fighting minority, a solu
tion appeared In the forcing of the
Scbeldemann government to resign.
This plan was knocksd out unex
pectedly when a second straw vote
showed that the small majority of the
national assembly againat the plan of
not signing at all waa by no means
solidly la favor of unconditional sign
ing. Liberals Take Definite !.
With this situation, the liberals were
the first to regain their self control.
With one dissenting vote the party
ballot showed itself to be solidly
against unconditional signing. So the
liberals thereupon formulated six con
dittens under which they would be
willing to algn the Versailles treaty,
subject to allied approval.
But these conditions practically
amounted to not signing at all. for
they involved reconsideration by the
allies of me six principal points in
the peace treaty. The vote, therefore,
waa tantamount to renewing and con
tinuing the negotiation Indefinitely.
The Catholie centrists were next to
regain their equilibrium and to try to
patch up th wide split In th caueua.
Trne to their poncy of seeking the
mlddls line, th centrists succeeded In
uniting most of their members in the
national assembly on a compromise
formula for signing conditionally, th
principal condition, inspired by the
crafty Ma lb I a Ersberger, being that

WEIMAR, June 21. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Germany acquired a I
new cabinet only after nearlv a week
of literal sweating in biasing Weimar I
weatner. The signing of the peace
terms naturally waa the onlv anestlon
around which the cabinet construction
hinged and th government, which
went on record as considering ths
terms unacceptable, found a surprising I
roiiowing Behind it.
The first party ballots, however. I
seemed to make ths signing of the
treaty inevitable, for the powerful ma
jority socialist party voted two-thirds
for ending the suspense. With the in
dependents supporting them, the con-I
servatives as a party behind them, and
ths centrists on th fence, the result
appeared a foregone conclusion.
But the conservatives suddenly swung 1
around and declared for non-signature;
tne centrists wavered and Imposed con-
to I anions and th democrat temporarily
naiked any hope of a majority by stub
bornly persisting against the extradi
tion by the entente of the former em
peror and other German notables.
Democrats Refuse to Bndge.
This waa the stumbling-block, for I
the democrats could not be budged
from the attitude which they held
through the belief that a revolution
would break out In protest by the peo
ple should Von HIndenburg. Ludendorff
and other Idols b humiliated.
count Von Bernstorff played a I
prominent part in the proceeding, not
only as president of the German peace
committee, but according to persistent
rumors, as the possible successor of
Count ron Brockdorff-Rantzau. for
there was a powerful group that want
ed him to suffer the poetib Justice of I
signing tne terms, after he had helped
to Bring the United States into the war.
Von Bernstorff. however, resisted
nd after having been appointed In the I
morning to the cabinet, refused to ac
cept the appointment or have anything
to do with the matter.
Opponents Weaken Later.
Later In the day th cantrlsc drop-1
ped their demand for modification of
the term and expressed their willing- I
ness to sign. Tne democrats also
weakened to such an extent that IS
of their S members in the assembly I
went over to the side in favor of the
signature.
The first ministry headed ty Hen-
Bauer lasted exactly one hour. It
crashed on the stubbornness of the
democrats and Von Bernstorfrs flat
refusal to head the ministry of foreign I
atiairs. .
Dr. Dernburg, who had been named
as minister of finance, declared he
could not co-operate. The democrats
then reduced their demands to one
point on which they were adamant,
namely, that the former German em
peror. Von HIndenburg and Ludendorff
must not be delivered to the entente I
for trial.
