OPERATIONS AGAINST THE POLES.
(Australian and N.Z- Cable Assooiatbn)
(Rec. Jan. 22, 10.30 a.m.) NEW YORK, Jan. 17.
Mr Dosch FJeurot, at Berlin, interviewed Ebert, who said the last few weeks had been most trying. Germany’s greatest fear was that the armistice would not bo renewed, but its renewal assured the conclusion of peace. He added: “We resorted to force only when the Spartacists did. Our hands are how free to take up the work of restoration. For days and days no coal or food reached Bedim Communication must bo restored. The National Assembly elections wijl be held on Sunday. " By the collapse of the Spartacists fair balloting is assured. Because of events in Eastern Germany we must face a hard fight against former enemies and strong elements among the iSpartacists. It is our intention to fight off those conditions which the Poles are attempting to create in the East. If they were successful, they would prejudice the conditions affecting a final peace.”
