BERLIN. January pa slump
on the German stock exchange,
while the mark improves abroad
these are symptoms of our mad
economic conditions and illustrate
the falseness of our present situa-
tion. We groan over unfavorable
exchange. hindering imports and
reparations, but do such volumes
of small domestic business that
banks. despite doubled personnel.
can hardly handle it and constant
ly declare new holidays in order
TO catch up on their business Col
lections taken in the streets for
hungry. unclad children are like
catching rain drops in a bottom
less barrel, while an army of Off
cials. undreamed in kaiser times,
draws salaries. Vast sums are
spent for champagne. needless lux
uries are imported and there are
more balls, dances and gluttonous
feasts than before the war. A half
of billion marks was gambled in
Berlin during the racing season.
Troops with many various names
for their regiments hear loud
whisperings that their existence is
justifiable to the entente allies only
because they overthrow communist
revolutions. Yet we seem Sur
prised at bloodshed at every harm
less meeting. We are helpless be-
fore the decree forbidding Austrian
union with Germany: it is regard
ed as the greatest crime of the
peace. yet every financier and
nearly every politician secretly ad-
mits that Germany is quite unable
to bear the burden of setting Aus
tria's house in order.
As in ancient times, every stranger
was considered a barbarian and a
deadly enemy. SO now it is consid-
cred a patriotic duty to spread lies
for enemy ears. AS during the war.
Liar Bethmann Hollweg is being
glorified by this strange republic
and the unpolitically minded Ger
man people are again having ham,
mered into them the doctrine that
they are surrounded by greedy
enemies and in danger of annihila-
ton. They are told that they must
use all weapons. even craft and
lies. to defend against this con-
spiracy. This is quite immoral and
all well meaning people should
join to free the splendid German
people from the mists of such false
illusions.
Socialist industrial workers di-
vided into three parties. violently
fighting one another, are per-
suaded by their leaders that Ques-
tions Of the state are meaningless
to the proletariat and that the
only important thing for them to
dois to capture and demolish the
capitalist fortress.
All citizen parties, however di-
vided on domestic policy by shades
Of economic theory. are united on
nationalism, all making the same

CALGARY, Alta, March ' (by As sociated Press). Plans to provide transportation from Edmonton to the Fort Norman oil fields by dirigible airships are under way, and c.
