Only Last Moment Agreement

New York Herald Bureau,
Berlin. Dec. 30.
New Years eve may find Berlin cut
off from the rest OF the world While
new negotiations are under way between
the railway men and Traffic Minister

cease tonight. Only an agreement at
the last moment will save Germany from
the enormous cost of strike.

the railway men is strongly influenced
by the fact that railway officials re-

the rumor that the Traffic Minister in

owing to the demand of German indus
trialists to put the management Of the
railways on a sound business footing.
The general opinion here is that the
Government is hardly capable of uphold

FOUR BILLION LIRE
SCONTO LIABILITIES
Italian Bank Has Year to
Straighten Out Its Finan-
cial Tangles.

ROME, Dec. 80 (Associated Press).-
The total liabilities of the Banca Italiana
di sconto, which closed its doors Thurs
Jay and to-day was granted mora
torium of one year in which to endeavor
to straighten out its financial tangles'
will reach 1000. 100000 lire.
This fact became known to-day by the
publication of the petition of the bank
for q moratorium. The petition addeo
that the moratorium would enable the
institution to tide over the present finan-
cial crisis. The petition attributed the
situation of the bank to the general Eu-
ropean economic breakdown.
The court appointed Commentators
Tomaso de Angels Of Rome. who Is
director Of the Banca di Napoli, as
referee. Meanwhile the Banca Italiana
al Sconto is continuing all operations
except payments, which 1t Is stated VIII
be resumed as soon as the tribunal limits
the amounts which may be Withdrawn
daily.
There was a tone of confidence IN
financial circles to-day. Some appeared
convinced tnat the pfeSens oieua -
Italy was only temporary. On the other
hand the parliamentarians point out
that there is so much unemployment In
Italy that production is not up to nor
NAL and that the mushroom war indus
tries are now finding themselves face to
face with the numerous problems which
have crippled peace industries. For this
reason belief is expressed In these quar-
ters that only new international eco
nomic adjustments can give much hope
to the general situation.

patch which Sailendra N. Chose, di-
rector of the American commission to

that the vote followed a decision taken

In statement explaining conditions
In India, as reported by his friends
there. Chose said: india is in passive
revolt. although the declaration of in
dependence. which had been intended to
be declared on December 26, has been
held in allegiance. The reason for this
method of procedure is determination
on the part Of the Nationalist leaders
to place upon the British authorities the
responsibility for warfare"

MUNICH, Germany. Dec. so (Asso-

initial capital of 1900. 900. 900 marks has
been organized to construct canal con-
Meeting the Rhine. the Main and the
Danube, linking the North Sea with the
Black Sea, the biggest waterway project
ever undertaken in Europe. which will
require twenty years for completion.
Part of the canal, work on which will
begin on January i. will be built across
a 1900 foot elevation, requiring sixty
locks over a stretch of 700 kilometers.
Forty power plants, capable of develop
ing 100000 horse power, are to be erect
ed designed to furnish 2,50O,000,000
kilowatts of power an hour, at an esti-
mated saving of 100000 marks worth

the waterway will be 3,437 kilometers
and will be able to accommodate 1900
ton ships.
Every branch of German industry, as
well as the Central, Bavarian, Baden,
Hesse and Thuringen governments, are
interested in the project. 1t is UNDER
stood that sufficient private capital, in
addition to governmental funds. has
been pledged to insure Its success.
