rcquisitioned to wait on the tables on

Naming of Dr. Rosen as For

Occasion for Reiterating
Program of Good Faith
Attacks Simons's Policy
All Parties To Be Asked TO
Cooperate in Plans for
Making Reparations Good
Special Cable to The Tribune

Copyright. 1871, New York Tribune Inc
BERLIN, May 23.--W With the appoint
ment to-day of DR.. Friedrich Rosen.
German envoy at The Hague, as For
eign Minister in the Wirth Cabinet,
the Chancellor affirmed Germany's in
tention to pay what ie due the Allies.
In statement to the Tageblatt DR..
Wirth criticized the policy of previous
cabinets in Germany of dilly-dallying
and procrastinating on the reparations
question in the hope of getting a set
tlement more favorable to Germany.
This part Of his statement is regarded
as an open arraignment of the record
of DR.. Simons, former Foreign Min
lister.
DR.. Wirth expressed his resentment
of the notions prevalent in German
press and political circles that his
Cabinet would be short-lived and had
been intended merely as an instrument
for the acceptance Of the Allied ulti~
matum on reparations and disarma-
ment. He declared the Cabinet re-
garded itself in duty bound to carry
out fully the provisions of the ultima
tum, and with this purpose would sum-
mon the assistance of all the financial
and industrial leaders of Germany
who were most prominent during the
wal.
Cooperation To BE Invited
DR.. Wirth said the Cabinet was pre-
pairing program of legislation for
presentation TO the Reichstag designed
20 facilitate reparations payments, and
indicated that other parties would be
given an opportunity to join with the

say yes or no to the demands of the
Allies. Our quarrels have proven
fruitless and we at last have begun to
act. Of course this policy will succeed
only ii all the German people stand
behind our promise. ANY sabotage or
either side will lead us into the most
serious of internal and foreign con-
ficts."
Overture to Peoples Party
DR.: Wirth declared the parties now
in the new government, and those
which may join, must be prepared for
work of long years duration. He
promised not to exclude anybody who
wished to cooperate in this direction.
This is regarded as an invitation to the
German Peoples party to join the
government, but how this will affect
the government in view of the Social
lists and the bitter opposition of the
Peoples party, remains to be seen.
Reorganization of the Cabinet is not
improbable, but Chancellor Wirth and
DR.. Rosen are likely to stay, in view
OF the distinct impression in Allied
circles here that Dr.. Wirth is seeking
honestly to respect Germany's obliga-
in Germany's good faith.

lost three guns.
The Germans. adds the newspaper,
olso occupied the strategic point of
Grosstein, northeast of Annaberg, cap
turing two mine throwers and seven
machine guns.
The German newspapers renew their
charges that troops of General Haller's
army, wearing uniforms, are fighting
against German volunteers in Upper
SlleSia, and that the Poles are bring
ing heavy artillery across the frontiers,
as we'll as troops and munitions. The
papers still publish appeals, signed by
individual Upper Silesians, calling for
volunteers to defend the homeland, al
though the Foreign Once has made
special request that such advertise
ments be discontinued.
Lively fighting is reported tonight
IN the vicinity of Rosenberg, where the
Poles are said to have received heavy
reinforcements recently. Meager ad-
vices, mostly by courier, from the in
dustrlal towns indicate that there is
growing excitement as the shortage
OF food becomes more acute.
Berlin Denies Responsibility
The German government in q note
TO the French Ambassador on May 19,
made public to-day, denies all respon-
slbility for the disturbances and de-
clines to comply with the French re-
miners. which was considered neces-
sary to forestall possible chaotic
conditions.
The French note, TO which the Ger
man memorandum is 8 reply, charged
Germany with ordering at too late q
date the suppression of volunteer
forces against the Upper Silesian
Poles to prevent the organization of
armed forces at Kreuzberg, Oppeln,
krappitZ and Ratibor, approximate
10000 men. It insists that Germany
direct shipments of foodstuffs into the
rebel area.
says that the Allied forces in Upper
Silesia cannot supply q guaranty, al
though there have been many promises
that foodstuffs would not fall into in
surgent hands, and that the self-de
fense organizations have been largely
recruited in Upper Silesia as a natural
result of General Lerond's failure to
protect the Germans in that area. 1t

tends only few kilometers beyond

been wide open, in evidence of which
q band OF 800 Poles crossed near Ros-
enberg on May 20, and attacked the
Germans at Kostau.
Puts Onus on Allies
In conclusion the German note points
out that Germany cannot be responsi-
Bile for a situation over which the
Allies assumed complete control, and
that if the Germans have armed them
selves with rifles, machine guns and
artillery, as the French note asserts,
that is a question with which the
forces of occupation must deal.
Germany, however, promises to ex-
ercise great vigilance in order to pre-
vent volunteers from crossing the Ger
man frontier, and says that to this end
the police force on the German-Silesian
border will be materially increased.
The French note asserts that the
German force at Kreuzburg number
5000 and are under the command of
a former army officer; that the Rati-
Dor force, also commanded by former
army officer, approximates 5000, and
in addition, the Germans in the vicin-
ity of Oppeln and Krappitz have or
ganized and armed under the command
of former officers.
