Continued from Ist page. today at an Easter mass meeling held i» advocaey of disarmament, under the auspices of the womens disarmament committee. Sepator Borah of Idaho who was the principal speaker, again ad vocated an agreement between the Uni ted States, Great Britain and Japan to reduce naval armaments, and charged the authors of the programme for in creased armaments for the worid with being ‘'sedulous® patrons of Bolshevisn:, painstaking and industrious gardeners of unrest and misery’’. The meeting, it was announced. was held simuitaneously +7ith others in 15 states in the interests of reduced naval an military pro- grammes Berlin, March 27th.—Beliet that the immediate danwer of a coordinated gen- eral strike in the Central German indus- trial recions has bcen temporarily ban- ished, is expressed by Government lead- ers here. They take this view because of the Easter holidays, which have come at the critical period, in the governments view. In the meantime, faith is pinned to the ability of the 5.000 Prussian secur- ity police to stamp out the lawleseness still r.mpant in open stretches of the country between towns. Many of these districts were, up to last night, firmly in the grip of bands of communists, who were everywhere leaving behind blown up public and private buildings and railway bridges and looted shops. Reports were received that the riofers were fortifying themselves in hilly dis- triets KEisleben., Mansfeld and Heft- stadt are guarded by security and local police, but the situation at lLeuna has not yet been cleared up. The big nitro- gen plant there has been made the head- quarters of the communists and leaders are said to be directing operations irom factory buildings. Government officialz appear confident that working men will reject the idea of a general strike, into which they say the communists are now attempting to bludgeon them through terror. The radical publication, the "‘Red Flag”’ printed last night a manifesto de- manding that workers everywhere strike in support of the revolt in Central Ger many. The court-house. at Mansfeld as well as the railway station a Hettstadt, has been wrecked by dynamite, but ad- vices received in this city indicate that the rioters suffered very heavy casual- ties in the clash with security police.
