GERMANY AND ALLIES.
NEW MEMORANDUM. STARTLING DEMANDS. By Telegraph.—Press Assn. —Copyright. Received Dec. 26, 1.10 a.m. London, Dec. 25. The German memorandum to the Allies suggests that the Customs tariffs in the occupied area be brought into line with those prevailing in unoccupied Germany, and requests permission to circulate stable money guaranteed by towns, communes, and lands bank in the Rhine province. It desires the reinstatement of the freedom of the Rhineland shipping, -and points out that the congestion of the railways will be relieved by the recall of the German railwaymen, who alone understand that system in the industrial area. It says the payment of the German railwaymen’s wages and the railway fares in French money is prejudicial, and declares the police forces in the Ruhr are not sufficient to carry out the duties, and a larger percentage of trained men should be recalled for duty. It remarks that the installation of tax collectors, and the reinstatement of German ex-officials are essential, and ob-erves that the resumption of immunlity of members of the Reichstag, Federal members of Parliament, the right of assembly and independence of tha law courts are a necessity.
