U. S. RADICALS URGE OVERTHROW GOVT
GERMAN ARMS TO BE LIMITED TO TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND
Special to The Nome Nugget by The Associated Press.
PARIS. March 11—Military Germany will cease to exist as sobn as the
peace terms are signed as a result of the adoption by ihe Supreme Allied
Council of the military terms of tho German disarmament clauses which will
be incorporated into the peace treaty which will be presented to the Germans
iit the actual peace conference between the entente and the Teuton govern
ments.
Under the terms of the disarmament clause tho German army will be
reduced to two hundred thousand men and four thousand officers. Germany’s
army will thus be smaller than that of Switzerland, the war strength of the
little Alpine republic being 540.000 men. In addition to binding the Germans
to this exceedingly small force, the clause embracing the Allies military terms
v. ill force Germany t<> abandon military conscription for a period of twelve
years. Such military forces as she maintains must be raised by volunteer
lecruiting. The Allied terms will also designate that Germany must destroy
all the groat military fortifications along tho Rhine valley and abolish the
imperial General Staff. Germany will also be compelled to give binding guar
antees for the faithful observance of the military restrictions imposed .
In tho view of the Allied council, the terms adopted today will m.i'cc
Germany practically innocuous in a military sense. He army at full strength
will not be large enough to cope with those of even the smallest European
states. In addition, her ability to surreptitously build up a large reserve
force will be practically destroyed by the clause prohibiting military conscript
ion. In a general sense the terms to be presented will mean the practical
destruction of German militarism as it existed in earlier years.
It is expected that the treaty which will be presented by the Allies
-and the United States will be ready by March 20. A day or two after the
treaty terms are finally endorsed by the I’eace Conference, tho German dele
gates will i>e summoned to Versailles to place their signatures on Hie docu
ment. This final act of the great war struggle is expected to occur about
March 22. It is indicated that the Allies have no intention of permitting
negotiations of an.v character beyond settling the questions of means and
methods involved in carrying out the Allied terms. The Germans will have
little option, save with respect to the manner in which the terms will be car
ried out.
