GERMANS BALK

Financiers Take Little Stock
in Vanderlip Gold Reserve
Rehabilitation Scheme.

BERLIN, Nov. S.-German fnancisrs
and industrialists are skepti4-1 Of the
results of the proposed gold reserve bank
for the economic rehabilitation of CEN
trail Europe. The scheme for the creation
Of the bank, which was to be modelled
after the Federal Reserve bank system
in the United States, came from Frank
A. Vanderlip, New York inancier.
1t was learned today that practically
all of the German bankers and business
men with whom Mr.. Vanderlip talked
told him that they did not believe that
Germany could be relieved by any other
means than revision Of the Versailles
treaty. Among the financiers with whom
Mr.. Vanderlip conferred was Arthur Won
Gwinner, head of the Deutsche bank.
One German banker told Mr.. Vanderlip:
Germany is like a man who has just
been struck by terrific volley of ma
chine gunfre and is momentarily expect

bank is like offering the wounded man a
piece of court plaster.
The attitude of German f1nanciers and
industrialists might be summed up in
the fatalistic phrase whats the user"

At the Country Club the Marshal rested
for time and then came downstairs to
the room in which the reception COM
mittee was waiting. He walked over to
the open fireplace and warmed his hands.
Then he caught sight Of the trio of wom-

music and walked over to them, chatting
for several minutes through an interpre-

Marshal Foch seemed to get a great

him, not asked him-he obeyed promptly
and laughingly.
