Naval Terms Revised by Allies Sub Basin to be Left for Fishermen. (By Associated Press) PARIS, 'April 19. The allies are to be Incorporated In the peace treaty concerning the Kiel canal and Helgoland, have been revised in several important particulars. It was the original plan to destroy the fortifications of the canal, making it a strictly commercial water-way without defenses. The changes that now have been made leave the present fortifications In existence and provisions also have been Inserted permitting of the continuance of the present coast defenses, all of which were to have been destroyed according to th original plan. , The changes concerning Helgoland leave intact the present large basin constructed on an extensive scale for the use of submarines during the war. It was concluded that the use of submarines now had been so restricted that the basin no longer constituted a menace and its continuance was decided upon as providing a useful haven for the North sea fishing fleet in case of distress. The fortifications in Helgoland are to be dismantled so that the basin is virtually the only thing -4 retained. The final disposition of the German feet is one of the subjects still undecided and even the highest naval authorities are not aware how the question stands since it passed into the hands of the council of four. The disposition to be made of the battle ships and the battle cruisers is one of the chief things to be determined upon under the head of naval terms and the decision will effect the large number of capital ships held under the terms of the armistice.
