GERMANS FACE
FINANCIAL RUIN

BERLIN, Feb. 9.-Germany is bal
ancing on the very edge of a precipice.
above the abyss OF national, economic
and financial collapse, which is certain
to be followed by reaching iuterna-
tional reverberations in the financial
world.
That is 'he unacceptable impression one
gets here in the vortex of the central
European political economic whirlpool.
All indications here point to the Yer
sailles treaty revenging itself upon its
makers with a rapidity that even the
most vengeful German nationalists hardly
anticipated.
The most portentuous shadow coming
events have east before them is the new
drop of the German mark, which touched
the 1-cent here and went even lower In
Cologne and in Holland, where it dropped
to seven -eights of a cent.
For the first time the confidence Of the
Germans themselves in their own money
is beginning to disappear. as is shown
by the wild scramble for foreign money
at any price, especially American, Swiss,
Dutch, Danish and Swedish.
All the leading Berlin jewellers closed
their doors yesterday, except one, which
refused to sell diamonds, precious stones
and jewelry of all kinds for Germany
money, which is almost worthless.
