BERLIN, June 5.-The Cabinets sue
cess In parrying the attacks of it's
enemies in the Reichstag last night and
obtaining the defeat of q resolution
which would have declared the coun-
| try's lack of confidence in Chancellor
Wirth. has not solved the governments
| parliamentary problems. On all sides
, the suggestion is renewed to-day that
if the ministry Is to avoid the frequent
recurrence Of crises which threaten it's
life Chancellor Wirth must dissolve the
Reichstag and call new election. 1t
is said that the Chancellor is inclined
to adopt this course.
After the confidence vote. declared in
the Chancellor's favor, his majority
forced q weeks recess OF the Reichs-
tag in which time Dr. Wrth will have
an opportunity to rebuild his political
fences and lay plans for meeting the
attacks of the harlequinate combination
of Nationalists and Communists that
seek his undoing.
Press Urges Appeal to People
The Democrat and Socialist news
papers to-day are insistent upon this
point, George Bernhard, writing in the
Vossische zeitung, vigorously urges
DIR. Wirth not to shrink from an appeal
to the people in an effort to smash the
forces which are out to destroy the
Cabinet, violate Germany's obligations
to the Allies and recreate an inter
national crisis with all the complica-
tions which that implies. Asserting
that return Of yesterdays political
crisis is Inevitable, Bernhard urges DR..
Wirth to take the bull by the horns and
give the National Peoples party and
the Nationalists open battle. He
writes:
Any man to-day who proves to the
people that the fulfllment of Ger
many's obligations leads not to slav-
cry but to freedom will receive united
support. Sabotageurs who merely crit
lclze must be merclesslv elected frona
pubic life no matter to what party
they belong"
The Berliner Tageblatt saws:
THE governments majority bfsis
must be widened either to the right or
to the left or by a direct appeal to
the people"
Norwaerts Supports Chancellor
Vorwaerts. organ of the Majority
Socialists, again urges the Independent
Socialists, to whom DR.. Wirth owes mis-
victory yesterday, to throw their full
support to the Chancellor by entering
the Cabinet. The newspaper says that
only by close cooperation between the
two Socialist parties will it be posi-
Bile to paralyze the efforts of the reac-
tionaries and monarchists TO bring to
nought Chancellor Wirths program Of
understanding, reconstruction and
reconciliation"
Over the weekend the Chancellor is
trying to work out a solution of the
delicate disarmament problem. The
question is still open whether dis
armament of the Einwohnerwehr. as
demanded by the Allies, involves also
the dissolution OF their organization.
BERLIN, June (By the Associated
Press. The Reichstag debate and bal
loting showed startling gaps in the CO.
hesiveness of the present three-partv
bloc and emphasized the Chancellor's
predicament in connection with the
prospective support for his reparations
legislation.
While the Democrats are desperately
trying to coax the German PeopIes
party into the coalition, the Majority
Socialists continue their pronounced
antagonism to the suggestion that they
cooperate with Mr.. Stresemann's party.
10 this extent the coalition on which
