l know the British premier: his
qualities and his faults. Considering
his nature, it is much more dangerous
to yield to him than to resist him
when you have right on your side.
The more he obtains the more he de-
mands. until finally he goes too far
even farther than he himself intend
ed. The present situation proves this.
After insisting for fifteen months that
the treaty should be revised in the
direction of a lump-sum payment OF

But ia: beyond Silesia. what difficult
ties are in prospect.
Little notice has been taken of the
resi- ignation of Bekir Semi Bey. for

ton is a triumph for the bolsheviki.
Dekir had negotiated at London the
armistice with France and the revi-
sion of Che Sevres treaty. His work
now has been rejected. In other
words. the Turkish elements cooper

France is likely to suffer the conse-
quences in Syria. Moreover. the So
Wet government of Russia gets an
other encouragement which it hardly
needed. Its propaganda continues
throughout the world. In London last
week the Duke of Northumberland
showed how dangerous this propa-
ganda was to England.
For year and a half Europe has
been paving the ground and getting
nowhere. The British government,
often through bad advice. constantly
has caused confusion by bringing into
question clauses of the peace treaty
which already had been signed and
ratified. France wrongly allow ed her
self to participate in this error. Gen
eral disorder is the result 1t must

Silesian minerals. she would set
up an industrial dictatorship upon
which England would be depend

be allowed to export continental

would be dangerous mistake to
set any hopes upon the technical
and industrial efficiency of the
Poles. He wishes instead that a
disarmed Germany shall soon re-
cover enough to work hard and
help England through her factories
and manufactured goods. and act
needs of eastern Europe, especially
Russia. where alone lies the neces-
sary treasure for healing the dam
ages of war. The French intrigue
mixed with the Polish episode
therefore annoys the British pre-
mier.
Lloyd George emphasized rightly
after the result of the Upper Sile-
sian plebiscite was made known
the abominable injustice which
would lie in taking away the whole
or large part of the industrial
district from Germany.

thinks that her debt is only sure

of the entire iron Rhineland from
Lens and Briey to Rybnik.
Feeling I'm France.
Many a French general is secret
ly saying today that as "perfidious
Albion" is not dependable, an un-
dersta nding with Germany and a
realization of the Napoleonic
dream of continental union is the
most advisable plan.
Public opinion in France. how
ever. sees only some Utopian idea
and is convinced that France will
be able to breathe without care
only when Germany has lost one
bank of the Rhine or other.
No good can come out of this an
CRY policy of mistrust. inasmuch
as diminished and weakened
world, would be incapable of max
ing world reparations.
1t soon will be apparent whether
the new Wirth cabinet will be able
to overcome Frances distrust, to
clear up the fog of political
phraseology and recognize the
realities of economic interests be-
tween France and Germany.
Perhaps it may be possible for
Germany to obtain patronage in
the world markets as a sort of
junior partner to England. which
today is commercially stronger
than industrially. The attempt
favored by the powers thirsting
for reparations to improve Ger

male publishes today sensational
story from it's Berlin correspondent
Georges Brun. purporting to tell the
inside story of British intrigues with
Germany to destroy the French in
demnity policy and claiming that Ger
tain German Americans are involved
The story asserts that these German
Americans persuaded the German gov
eminent to ask for American drhi-
tration of the reparations claims and
in the negotiations became the diplo-
matte agents of the Berlin govern
mcnt.
In this connection Bruins story
names a certain Hoefter. said to be

ready to accept the French repara-

Substance of Brun's StOry.
According to Bruins story, Hoefter
represented himself as an intimat e

ter and Won Wiegand. according 10
Bruins account. wrote the ,;erma,
note to the United States. while the
other four mentioned seized the op-
portunity to do good business sell

More serious portions of Bruins
story relate to the alleged co-opera
tion of Great Britain's diplomatic
representatives in Germany with the
German government in an attempt to
enable the German nation to escape
from a large part of the reparations
payments. 1t is even asserted that
Lord d'Abernon. the British amt.as-
sador, gave secret but official assur
ances to Walter simons. then foreign
minister, that the payment of less
than one-quarter of the reparations
demanded by France would be suf-
hcient. Later just before the recent
London conference. it is charged, Lord
dAbernon and other British diplo-
matte representatives held numerous
secret sessions with German officials
IN an effort to establish repara-
tions basis which Great Britain could
support in opposition to the french
claims.
This charge is somewhat similar to
the one circulated during the last
fortnight to the effect that Great Brit
ain had secretly promised Upper ST.
lesla to Germany if the latter would
sign the reparations agreement.

treachery to France are of the gray-
