Strike Weapon Has Been
Employed with Great Eff
feet in Two Countries.

Copenhagen, April 5.-An agree
ment to end the general strike which
resulted in forcing King Christian to
dismiss the Liebe cabinet has been
reached by employers and workmen.
The strike weapon now has been
employed with surprising effect in two
important constitutional crises The
first was in Germany, where the re-
dictionary government set up by Dr.
Wolfgang Kapp was forced to re-
linquish power at the end of five days
The success Of the strike in this coun-
try was almost as speedy.
The ministry which mas been formed
seems to meet with general approval
by the parties. 1t is composed largely
of the permanent secretaries of gov
ernmental departments. who obvi-
ously have been chosen for the most
part to carry on the routine OF the
department in the government, which
is considered temporary in character.
The other portfolios are held by men
who, although representative Of vari-
Gus political parties are not con-
sidered as likely to make any radical
changes in the conduct Of their de-
Npartments.
The reinstatement Of H. P. Hansen
as commissioner for Schleswig af-
fairs which is announced, has given
great satisfaction to those who OBJ
jected to an annexatiopist policy re-
garding the disputed northern schles-
wig plebiscite zone. 1t is stated, how
ever. that the appointee's political
friends are endeavoring to persuade
him not to accept the post, fearing

would be in propaganda against the
temporary cabinet. y
