Sestri Ponente, near Genoa, Italy, which
broke out following ceremony IN memory
of Italy's war heroes, says dispatch from
Genoa to the Tempo today. The trouble be-
gan, according to the message, with the fir
ing of shots from the Socialist club, where it
was rumored sixty Communists were in
hiding.
A crowd of the Fascist, or Extreme Ma
tionalists, and carabineers Immediately be-
sieged the building, and fighting was in prog
ress throughout the night with revolvers and
bombs.
Germany and the United States were rep
resented as at the opposite poles of the
worlds financial structure by DR.. Walter
Rathenau, Minister of Reconstruction, in an
address at meeting of the Hamburg Com
mittee for the Restoration of Peacetime
Economy.
DR.. Rathenau argued that the depreciation
of the currencies of the various nations was
tending to weld them together, none of them,
with the exception of the United States, hav-
ing been able to escape the ravages OF war;
time and the postwar economic invasions.
Germany" he continued, sis not land
of gold or raw materials, but nation which
lives and will continue to live by the work OF
her hands. We are, therefore, only able to
pay debts with our products, our mental and
manual labor. This we honestly purpose to
do
at is to be hoped" said DR.. Rathenau in
discussing Americas part in the upbulldlng
of Europe, that the mighty nation beyond
the Atlantic with which we hope peace will
forever unite us as it has since yesterday, and
whose sword when laid in the balance ID
equally as decisive as its pen, will realize That
conditions in Europe cannot ne corrected IL
factor Of such giant dimensions as the
United States withholds its collaboration"
Cabinet Quits
The Cabinet of Premier Allendes Alazar,
SPAIN resigned this week, but the King asked
that it continue in office.
Conferences between the retiring Premier
and other leading politicians of the Liberal
and Conservative groups were begun early
and the opinion was general that Jose San.
chez Guerra, Speaker of the Chamber or
Deputies, would be requested to form new
ministry. He possesses SOLID following
among the various more Conservative groups,
but often has expressed the intention of os-
clining to form a Cabinet unless he should be
certain of having a majority or the senators
and Deputies behind him. Whis at present IS
not the case, but it is considered likely
combination under his leadership can be
formed if King Alfonso intrusts him with the
task of selecting ministry. -
Ell impartial foresees great d1t1cultv IN
forming a new Cabinet and predicts the MN
isterial crisis will last long time

No Deal
Representatives of Soviet Russia have been
feeling out the ground in trade circles In
France with the view, they indicated, OF plac-,
ing orders for automobiles and other articles
of commerce, but reports are that they nave,
met with little encouragement.
The reports that have been IN circulation
that Leonid Krassin, the Soviet minister OF
trade and commerce, was entering into nego~,
tIS"ions with France for trade arrangement
are attributed in official circles to desire
on the part of Moscow to draw out french
opinion. The attitude of the french gov
eminent, however, is declared to be unchang"r
ed-that is that it will have nothing to do
with the Soviet government or any other gov"
eminent in Russia until it shows sondity
and an intention to establish a moderate re-
gime and to recognize foreign debts.

imperial conference of England to consult

and rado-telephony. This committee is com"
posed of Winston Spencer Churchill, secre"
tary for the colonies, chairman, with one
each from Canada, Australia,
New Zealand, South Africa and India.
