THINK PRESENT
GERMAN REGIME
WILL NOT SIGN
French Then Look For Imme-
diate Change in Hun
Government
By Associated Press.

Paris, June 1S.-The attitude of
the German delegation on the sign
ing of the Treaty is not clear. be-
cause the delegates as yet are un-
aware of the exact nature of the
instrument they are called upon to
ratify, owing to the conflicting ear
lier reports on the extent of the
notifications accorded them.
The French. who alone had an
opportunity of sounding the mem
bers of the German delegation in
formally on the prospective changes,
believe that neither the present dele
CATION nor the present government
Will sign, but they look fo the imme-
date installation of a Radical So
cialist administration, which will ac-
cept the Treaty.
Some time Saturday has been set
unoff1cially for the presentation of
the Allied reply to the Germans.
In Austria Hungary the political
situation is considered serious. Re-
ports have it that a Communist gov
ernment is to be set up in Austria
next Sunday, and that the Austrian
Communists will ally themselves
with the Communist faction in Hur-
gary.
In Germany, Gustav Noske, minis
ter of defense, has thrown down the
gauntlet to the radical Majority So
cialists who have been attempting
to force his resignation and that of
Premier Scheidemanr from the
executive committee of the Majority
party.
