T0TOLRATE GERMANY
(By United Press)

Paris. May 26.-(By Webb Miller)
BRAND appeared today to
have swung French opinion into
closest liberation for Germany. 1t
was confidently believed here that
the chamber of deputies will approve
his course i'll regard to- Preparations
and his handling of the Silesian sit,
uation. A vote of confidence would
serve to restore fully the cordial re-
lations of the allies and permit the
supreme council to proceed with plans
for dividing Silesia between the Ger
mans and Poland.
With railroad traffic restored in
Silesia, allied detachments reported
they were restoring order gradually.
The situation was expected to be
cleared up entirely when the Polish
answers the allied de-
mand that she close her Silesian from
tier. With France joining in the de-
mand. it was believed Poland would
obey.
