and at Germany's expense. They may not be reconstructed for any similar
fortifications built in the future.

STRIPPED OF HER COLONIAL EMPIRE

Germany's vast colonial empire--totaling more than 1,000,000 square
miles in area--is now a thing of the past. Outside of Europe Germany
renounces all rights, titles, and privileges as to her own or her
allies' territories to all the allied and associated powers, and
undertakes to accept whatever measures are taken by the five allied
powers in relation thereto. In addition Germany surrenders all
concessions she had wrung from other countries,--as China, Siam,
Liberia, Morocco and Egypt.

GERMANY LOSES HER ARMY

The demobilization of the German Army must take place within two months
of the peace. Its strength may not exceed 100,000, including 4,000
officers, with not over seven divisions of infantry and three of
cavalry, and it is to be devoted exclusively to maintenance of internal
order and control of frontiers. Divisions may not be grouped under more
than two army corps headquarters staffs. The great German General Staff
is abolished. The army administrative service, consisting of civilian
personnel not included in the number of effectives, is reduced to
one-tenth the total in the 1913 budget. Employees of the German states
such as customs officers, first guards may not exceed the number in
1913. Gendarmes and local police may be increased only in accordance
with the growth of population. None of these may be assembled for
military training.

STRIPPED OF HER NAVY

The German Navy must be demobilized within a period of two months after
the peace. She will be allowed six small battleships, six light
cruisers, 12 destroyers, 12 torpedo boats, and no submarines, either
military or commercial, with a personnel of 15,000 men, including
officers, and no reserve force of any character. Conscription is
abolished, only volunteer service being permitted, with a minimum
period of 25 years' service for officers and 12 for men. No member of
the German mercantile marine will be permitted any naval training.

Germany must surrender 42 modern destroyers, 50 modern torpedo boats,
and all submarines with their salvage vessels. All war vessels under
construction, including submarines, must be broken up. War vessels not
otherwise provided for are to be placed in reserve or used for
commercial purposes. Replacement of ships, except those lost, can take
place only at the end of 20 y
