SEEKING
|. CHANCE TO EVADE
/. DEBT, SAYS HARDEN
Claims Berlin. Government Was
Not Sincere In Signing
Reparations Clause.

PARIS, July 12.-Interviewed by a
correspondent OF Excelsior on eco
nomic and political relations between
France and Germany, Macmillan Har-
den, editor of Zukunft, took yet anoth-
er opportunity offered him TO Bit
terly attack autocratic Germany and
to justify Frances claims for repa-
rations.
France asks for but part OF what
we made her lose" were Harden's nrst
words.
He then stated that Germany still
believes that she was not the author
OF the war, that she was never beaten
and that terrible conditions have been
imposed upon her. although she faith
fully believed in former President
Wilson's Fourteen Points"
That which past German govern
ments have lacked, cSntinued Har-
den, 'is frankness. II today Germany
shows Willingness to repair, " Is sim
ply on account OF Frances threats and
strength. No government heretofore
has shown any sincerity in it's at
tempts TO repair. Germany signed the
treaty of Versailles, and she must
make good her signature. Our peo-
pie think that France is in the throes
OF militarism, but / am surprised to
see how distant from militarism
II
your victory we expected to see the
appearance Of a new Caesar Instead
of that / notice that you make less
show OF your victorious generals than
we do OF our beaten military leaders,"
Harden believes Chancellor Wirth
is sincere and suggests that much
more may be had from him X only
the Allies. and particularly France,
were to encourage aim little more.
Don't continually threaten him or
bully him." is his advice. when
he has fulfilled certain of his en-
gagements pat him on the back and
tell him, We'll donel We are sat
isned.'"
Referring TO economic relations.
Harden considers that where senti-
ment has failed economic relations
might very well succeed. I'm my
opinion" remarks Harden, economic
relations alone can prevent any new
confagration. Let us bind up our
economic interests. France and Ger
many cannot gh on forever stabbing
each other in the back"
Asked what Germay would have
done had she won the war. Harden
replied:
she would not have done any
thing very fne, but that sort OF
thing must cease. We must become
men of the future, end not remain
comics OF the past"
