TRYING TIMES AHEAD.
NEW YORK, Jan. 21. Dosch Fleurot, at Berlin, interviewed Ebert, who said that the last few weeks had been most trying. Germany's greatest fear was that t-he armistice would not be renewed, brtt its renewal assured the- eonchision of peace. "We resorted to force only when the Sparitacists did. Our hands are now free to take up the work of restoration. For days and days no coal or food have reached Berlin. Communications musu l>& restored. The National Assembly elections will be held on Sunday. By the collapse of the Spartacists fair balloting is assuerd. Because of events in Eastern Germany, we must face a hard fight against our former enemies and strong elements among the Spartacists. It is our intention to fightoff those conditions which the Po'es are attempting to create in the East. If.1 they were successful it would prejudice conditions affecting final peace.
