more advanced opinions may enter the
German government But that, too,
will be only bait for the masses-a
concession in form. not in essentials.
If Germany wins the war the junkers
will put off the mask and rule the en-

tionarily, more automatically, than be-
fore.
The withdrawal Of Alfred thinner

Espionage Caused
Menocal to Act
Cuban Civil Rights Suspended
to Wage War More
Efficiently

The Republic of Cuba News Bu-
reau" here received a cable dispatch
yesterday from President Menocal of
Cuba in which he explained his action
of Friday in suspending the constitu-
tional guarantees and calling an extra
session of Congress.
"The suspension OF guarantees" said
the President, "was in obedience 10
my belief that this was necessary for
greater efficiency in waging war on
Germany and for the benefit of public
order in Cuba"
The extraordinary session of Con-
gress, President Menocsl explained,
was not to be confused with the sus-
pension of constitutional guarantees,
as it is designed solely to carry out
the final liquidation of the Port Of
Havana Docks Company bonds, which
have been known as the Dragado CON
cesson, and which were guaranteed by
the government.
The Cuban Congress on March gave
President Menocal authority to sus-
pend constitutional guarantees, but
this is the first time he has availed
himself of the power. II was said the
action is now taken to stamp out
espionage in Cuba.

Conference on Increasing
Reichstag's Rights Faces
States Rights Issues

Berlin. July l3 (via London, July IA.
A prominent political leader to-day
informed The Associated Press that the
discussions and conferences now going
on between Chancellor Won Bethmann-
Hollweg. representatives of the Fed
eral States and the Reichstag party
leaders. were for the purpose of devils
ing ways and means 10 achieve q closer
intercommunion between the govern
ment and Parliament
Whether such a plan of cooperation
shall take the form of rigid Parlia-
mentarism, cannot be stated at this
time. The sudden transition to such
system is acknowledged to be impos
siblc under the present federal consti-
tuition which gave to the component
states of the empire clearly defined
and individual rights and further takes
cognizance of the prerogatives and
functions of the Bundesrat or Federal
Council.
The informant of The Associated
Press explained that the question was
not unlike the problem of state rights
in the United States. The present ne
gotiations, which are following hard
on the heels of the royal decree grant
ing electoral reforms in Prussia, are
calculated to yield the Reichstag an
active voice in approving the men who
are TO conduct the government as well
as the right of council in questions of
foreign and domestic policies.
This approach to slightly diluted
parliamentarizatio of the government
now is looked on as the only feasible
solution of this feature in the present
crisis. II is not unlikely that the pro-
posed adjustment in this phase of the
new orientation will be the basis for
important political debates set to be
gin at to-morrow's plenary session of
the Reichstag.
Further delay in the vote on the war
credit is not looked for, although the
four party coalition has not yet agreed
on peace resolution. This agreement,
however. is expected to be reached at
to-dav's session of the Main Commit
New-York tribune., 1917-07-15

News has come through Switzerland
- the extraordinarily audacious speech
made in the Reichstag early IN May oy
nenu.v Cohn, Of the minority, or Lien
knecbt faction Of the Social Democratic
party. This speech was evidently sup
messed in Germany with good rea'
SOM. II was delivered on May D.
About a week later Ledebour made an
attack on the government which con-
tanned vague threat Of democratic
,ovoIution. The German censor al
lowed a synopsis Of it to be sent out
But Cohn's speech was far more as-
cressive and bitter than Ledebour s.

People Victims Of Policy
Cobn is. or was, a member OF the
Reichstag committee appointed to con-
slider constitutional reforms. As
member of that committee he refused
to sign a message of congratuiatloh
sent TO Field Marshal Hindenburg. he
was criticised for this display OF dlsre-
spect. and defended himself on the
floor Of the Reichstag. He said:
az could cite in apology the bombastic
tone of that dispatch. | could cite the
inopportune occasion on which 1t was
sent But there is still another reason
whv did not sign it. Our troops are
not fighting for the safety OF the peo-
nle or the welfare of the nation. Ihey
are the victims of a policy which does
not see. and will not see, its own
errors; of a policy which is not wlll-
ing 10 draw conclusions from the facts
which confront it; which is not Will
ing. in particular, TO draw the one
necessary conclusion-make peace and
democratize the military system: II IS
not through telegrams, it is not through
incomprehensible laws like the law or
auxiliary national service, that we
ought TO express our gratitude for the
courage of the German troops. IL is by
ameliorating their lot"
Army Forced to Aid Loans
Cohn then formulated series OF
complaints against the military ad-
ministration. He emphasized the fact
that the soldiers had been compelled 70
subscribe to the governments loans
and that in certain army corps an
obligatory savings system had been
introduced. Continuing, he said:
"The army is not, whatever may be
said to the contrary, the people in
arms. II is not a popular army; 1t is
a class army The Battle of the Marine
saw the collapse of the policy Of ag-
gre5sion. Il saw the collapse of the
opinion that the people can be armed
for any other purpose but self-de-
fence and obligatory military service
