GER|MANY'S AIMS
SHOULD BE STUDIED
BY WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN

BY WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN
WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-Pre-
mier Brands speech has stirred up
a hornets nest and he shows no dis
position to retreat or to mollity
those who have responded to him.
His last speech in the United States
was unexpectedly bold in criticism
Of Great Britain, and Lord Curzon
has with equal frankness discussed
Great Britain's objection to the
French program.
While the quarrel has all the ear
marks of a fierce fundamental dis
pute, it may, after all, be the best
way of bringing the parties togeth-
er. Sometimes an open rupture has

tility is more likely to continue than
a hostility that bursts out and COM
pels attention.
British View
BRAND renews his attack upon
Germany and charges that the new
government is in line with the old,
and equally committed to aggres-
sionA by force Of arms. Great Brit
ain evidently does not share
Frances fears, and she certainly is
in as good a position to know what
Germany is doing as France Is, ana
there is no reason why Germany
should feel less anger at Great Brit
ain than at France. 1t was Great
Sritain's strength added to the arms
of France that held the line against
Germany until the weight of Amer
ica's influence was thrown into the
scale. If the fears of France Were
well founded, would not Great Brit
ain be equally alarmed? Is there
any reason why the British empire
should be indifferent to Germany
plans if the latter harbors revenge
and only awaits an opportunity 10
spring upon her neighbors?
But the important question is not
what France may think or WhaG
Great Britain may think; the Worla
is interested in knowing the actual
facts, and the facts are easy to ascer-
tain. 1t would seem to be the outy
Of the conference to inquire lnlnle-
diate1v as to Germany's disposition.
Her government could answer d.
once and decide the course OF the
conference. =
Facts Easy to Get

government, affirms what officials
have said unofficially. she can offer
, her pledges of peace and expires
her willingness to unite with the 9Th
er powers in any plan that will al
Law the fears Of France and any
other nation that suspects her. The
conference can name the conditions
it deems necessary; if they are COM
pIied with, France will doubtless
accept the assurances and the mat
ter will be settled. No country can
at this time justify unnecessary ex-
penditures on land or sea and the
masses are in no mood to bear the
burden Of the demand for continual
ton of these expenses. :
1t is time to quit charges ana
counter-charges and get down to bus
mess. The business before the con-
ference is to find out what Germany
ia willing to do to guarantee the
peace of Europe and thus insure land
reduction in keeping with the re-
duction already agreed upon on the
sea.

OBREGON SEES No
NEED FOR ALARM
BY CONDO

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 25.-(By the
Associated Press.)-Revolutionary
conditions reported recently in Low
er California are considered of small
Importance by President Obregon,
who received the newspaper CORE
spondents in his office today and dis
missed questions relative to these
reported disturbances with laugh.
There is no need for alarm" he
said, "as the uprisings are minor
and of no importance"
Greeting the newspaper men as
colleagues, in view of, his recent ven
lures as a special editorial writer
for a Mexico City periodical, Presi-
dent Obregon conversed with them
for more than an hour. The con-
versation was mostly on local topics.
He submitted to extensive question
ing relative to the agrarian law, and
asserted that a change Of personnel
in the national agrarian commission
would be made soon.
1.-THE government agrarian law" y
he said, els perfectly sound, logical
and workable; but for carrying out
it's provisions certain changes in the
agrarian commission must be made"
Some local newspaper man asked
if this would mean the resignation
of the minister of agriculture,
Fomento Villareal, but the president
answered in the negative. Despite
this answer, however. some local
newspapers declare there is a rea-
son to believe his statement Of a

cally, saying he would ttleave that

when questioned whether Mexico
would accept an invitation if ex-

in an Associated Press dispatch re-

answered that the form Of such In.

acceptance.
He said there is no change in
Mexico's relations with the United
States, and Under-Secretary of State
Fletcher's possible retirement was
described by President Oregon as

American state department.
He added however, that Mr.

ways viewed Mexico through North
American eyes,"
He intimated that extensive rail-
road improvements would be made
by the republic, particularly in the
west coast region. General Cocktails
recent visit to Mexico City was in
that connection, he said.
Among other points brought out
in his conversation were that article

problems are on their way to solu-
ton and that the report of loans to
Mexico by American ana British
