With Coalition Members
Of the Reichstag.
RI ~, Assooiated PRESS.


BERLIN, May 5.--President Ebert was
IN conference to-day with the PARTIES
comprising the Coalition bloc in the
Rcichstag In an effort to find a man
willing to organize n new Cabinet In
succession to that of Chancellor Fehren-
bach. There still was talk of assigning
the Foreign Ministry in the new Cabinet
TO either DR. Wilhelm Mayer. German
Ambassador in Paris, or Dr. Sthamer,
the Ambassador to Great Britain
The Fehrenbach Cabinet was continu-
ing to function to-day in compliance
with the Presidents request. The re-
firing Government, the commentators in
the press agree. had outlfved It's useful
ness in view of the present situation at
home and abroad but 1t is reproached
for not having either retired sooner or
remained in office until the London de-
cision We're at hand. The press gem
orally demands that a new Cabinet be
formed at the earliest possible moment.
This is urged not only because of the
necessity of bridging over the awkward
gap in Governmental affairs produced
by the allied ultimatum and the Upper
Silesian situation, but also for the obvi-
Gus necessity of permitting the new men
to find their bearings and agree on a
coordinated line of action.

No Change by De Valera.

The conference is said to involve on
De Valera's part no necessary change
in attitude for the Sim Feiners always
have asserted their Willingness to meet
any Irishman 1t is argued that the
North always has held aloof. and that
Sir Edward Carson refused TO meet the
late John Redmond on the recruiting
platform. IT was also said to-day that
DE Valera might meet Craig without
affecting his position. for he has no
electoral difficulty and his party is GER
tain to have an almost unopposed vic
tory in the elections in southern Ireland.
In political quarters here 1t was de-
clared that the latest move Of Sir James
Craig required courage. 1t was as
serted that he has critical situation
to face. and that the elections in the
North may provoke cross currents and
differences from the extreme Protes-
tants. as well as from the Prohibition
lists and others in the hurry over con-
ventional reforms.
Since assuming responsibility for the
future of the Utter Government, Il was

determined to maintain separate the
rights OF the North, he was anxious to

Political leaders asserted that the
main difficulty between Sir James and
De Valera was that Sir James favored
starting with home rule and advanc-
ing afterward TO common action. while
De Valera desired to start with unity
but was willing 10 accord the North Of
ireland all neces sary devolution.
There IS reason here for the belief
that councillors on both sides OF the
CONTROVERSY have been consulted. The
attitude Of the Government appears TO
be in favor Of any move for peace be-

and willing 10 make any notifications

The Race for Disarmament

The Herald portentously warns
against allowing the Washington
conference to become "a competitive
exhibition Of precipitancy and UNI
selfishness in the obliteraton of ex-
listing defensive establishments. Put
into palmer English, this seems to
mean 1T would have no race for dis
armament. There is not much dan
ger of this.
So complex is the whole problem
that the sane optimism and practical
good faith Of the world will have to
be drafted to solve it. What is
hoped for is the greatest possible cut
in armament. But that there will
be complete abolition is unthinkable.
The question is the degree of the Inn
ltatlon or reduction. 1t is excessive
armament which threatens peace. 1t
develops suspicion, it arouses fear,
1T invites disaster. If the Washing
ton conference succeeds in restrain
ing excess even little it will have
taken the first step toward ultimate
disarmament.
To say that disarmament is the
be-all and the cnd-all Of the coming
conference, however, is to confuse a
method with an object. Peace and
the elimination Of causes Of war are
the immediate aims in so far as thew
arc attainablc in the present dis
turbcd state Of the world However
desirable disarmament may be, it is.

Long, Long Thoughts

What "long, long thoughts of
youth" will be started the world
round by the luck of the two Scotch
boys whom Sir Ernest Shackleton
has selected to be Of the company Of
The Quest! What dreams will be
stirred and flung after them!
There cannot be real boy any,
where on earth who would not give
all he possesses, or that he hopes to
possess some day, to be in the boots
of nineteen-year-old Mari, of Aber-
deem, and year-old Mooney,
Of the Orkney Isles, when The Quest
sails at the end of this month to
delve into the secrets Of the Ant
arctic. And how many an cold boy"
steady going, white-templed and
supposedly dead to all thought of
romance, will wish himself back at
the age when "a boys will is the
winds will" and he had decided to
follow in the footsteps of Sir John
Franklin and dedicate his life to
polar exploration!
1t was fair and likable way Sir
Ernest chose for the selection of
young Mari and Mooney. 1t would
Lave been an easy thing for him to
have picked the sons of some of his
friends, but he didn't do that. He
sent out word that he had two places
for boys aboard The Quest. From
the host who applied ten were select
ed as possibilities, MARI and Mooney
among them.
Both Of them happen to be Boy
Scout troop leaders, which speaks for
character, but if we do not miss a
guess it is the fact that they know
boats and the sea that won them the
explorers favor. Mooney, the young
or, had never seen a passenger rail-
wav train until he boarded che one
which carried him to London and the
S''D
threshold Of his great adventure
But it will not be long now before he
begins to look upon greater wonders
than passenger trains-thc wonders
OF the wondrous Southern Ocean.
The dispatches tell US only the in
ltlals of the lucky youngsters. Blu.
Mari being from Aberdeen, we can
imagine that life on The Quest will
disclose him as "Wul]ie." N. e. are
the letters standing before MONEYS
name. We'll wager that in a month
they will be calling MIN "Nor'cast.'
AS sailor would say: $50 long.
Willie! So long, Noreast!" And
may the seas be kind to The Quest.

Henry Ford's Railroad Miracle

When Henry Ford purchased a
branch line railroad running from
Detroit to Toledo, and soon there
after it was announced that by low
ering rates, increasing the number
of employees and raising wages he
had converted savage deficit into a
smiling surplus, there was much
chatting. 1t was agreed all around
that as a railroad man Mr.. Ford was
an excellent advertiser. His name
was in the newspapers again.
1t was assumed that no one took
the miracle story seriously. Mr.. Ford
has the disposal Of a large amount
of freight into and from Detroit. He
had routed this via his own line and
had said to the competitive railroads
passing through Toledo: Deliver to
me as much tonnage as I deliver to
you"
Of course, the Ford lines traffic
went up. A railroad thus fed fattens.
A railway manager whose line is a
side-track of an immense freight
producing establishment can show a
profit if it's parent institution would
have it show one.
But it appears that the miracle
story is believed by some. Yapping
political orators are spreading the
tale, and it threatens to become a
legend. Oh, Barnum, how right you
were in your theory of what a Sec
ton Of the American public wants!
