Berlin Cabinet Resigns.
The resignation of the Fehrenbach
ministry at Berlin. on the eve of the
signing OF tne Ultlmatum. mas brought
new element into the situation.
Rumors that the German government
would tender it's resignation to Presi-
dent Ebert had been heard with con-
siderable credence for several days and
conflrmatory dispatches received last
night caused little surprise. 1t was said
last night that the German president
had asked Chancellor Fehrenbach's
cabinet to continue to function in deal
ing with current affairs.
This the cabinet consented to do. Dr.
Gustav Stresemann. leader Of the ,peo-
pies party in Germany. was mentioned
as being the proba BILE successor of Con-
stantine Fehrenbach as chancellor Dr.
Stressemann was among the most bit
ter critics Of the Fehrenbach ministry,
and his party was reported early in
March as exerting considerable pres
sure upon the government to bring about
break with the entente.
1t was said at that time that the
peoples party was urging the German
government to demand that the allies
withdraw their forces from newly oc-
cupied districts along the Rhine under
the threat of breaking of diplomatic
relations.

statement follows.
There will be no reduction OF

relations. The present acute depr.S-
sion in the mining industry. with
consequent widespread unemploN-

CONGRESSIONAL RECORD

the event that names appeared in the
lists enormously.
In asking the House for permission
to print in the RecrOd Mr.. johnson
said he realized the possibility of er-
rors in the department list and that
he stood ready TO print proper correc-
