The police in Prussia continue to this day to wear the green uniform and black leath helmets of the German rifle regiments. Herr Noske was persuaded by Herr Dose, then an olivial of the Prussian Minister of the Interior, and Capt. Pabst (both reac tionaries and subsequently identified with the Kapp puterb) to retain the organiza tion and armament of this military police fores in place of the old blue-uniformed municipal police, to recruit them frum the ariay and keep thera in barracks.

As the result of this law there has been in Prussia considerable reorganization of the police. The demand of the Inter- Allied Control Commission, back to the 3 M., at the Offices. of the Public Works police conditions of 1913, has not been Complied with, the Governments, bath of the Reich and of Prussia, retorting that Kau Pai Shek in the Colory of Hongkong. the social conditions are not the same for a term of 75. years, with the option as they were in 1913. The police renewal at a Crown Bent to be fired by the Prussia remain under the control of the Surveyor of HIS MAJESTY THE KING, for one Prussian Ministry of the Interior (mutalis further term of 75 years. inutundis this is true of all the Federal States). They have no." machine-guns. They are armed with rifles (one to every three men), automatic pistols, and bar

nets. When on ordinary street patrol duty they carry a truncheon and no rifle. Their numbers, formerly 92,000, were in. greased to 130,000 by the permission of the Entente on the representation of Germany that the" smaller number was insufficient for the maintenance of order. In times of disturbance or anticipated to a military disturbance they revert footing at once: At the end of Septem ber, 1923, when, as the result of the in- flation collapse, a new Communist re volution seemed imminent, the police in Berlin were placed under Reichswehr Group Command No. 111.

The German Government is standing out for the retention of the barrack ss tem on the ground that conditions are still far removed from the normal. and tites in support of this argument the Tast that the Communists at the recent Reich stag election secured 2,700,000 votes. These votes were almost completely urban, and as the Communist agitators. and leaders were nearly all either in prison or in hiding, it is argued that there must still be a formidable back- ground to Bolshevism in the cities.

it not so, the present dispute would not arise. The police in reserve for dealing with any sudden local or concerted put- break are. I am informed, kept in bar racks because it would be impossible to summon the men separately in time, to strike an effective blow. The pro- cedure adopted is to rush them by means of motor lorries to the scene of disturb ance and bring them into action at once, In some of the former replies to the Entente Notes it used to be said that the reason why the, police, units in bar- racks were not disbanded and the men housed individually was because there was a shortage of dwellings. It was then indicated that the service, would be so re-organized that the barracks would This become merely model dwellings. contention, however, has evidently been abandoned.
