ton. all now in Germany.
These men insist that their presence
is for informative PURPOSES only, that
only far reaching financial aid will save
the situation and that the meeting in
Paris of the international bankers alone
can determine a feasible basis for the
credit required for stabilization Of the
currency.
The visitors will be In a position TO
remedy the false Impressions which ex-
list In the American banking circles that
have handled German securities and
marks The determination Of such as
sets as Germany can offer which will
have real foreign value has become a
highly complex problem.
Hugo SHINES and Herr Helpland, the
German radical economist. have pro-
posed merging the railways into some
sort of private company as property
guaranty for a loan. But the railways
have, and probably will continue to
have. a deficit. making them a burden
rather than an asset. Furthermore, the
railways could not be separated from,
the economic stability OF the Govern
ment, no matter what kind of a prl-
vate holding company were formed.
Karl Fuerstenburg. head OF the Ber-
lin Trading Company and for many
years the associate OF DR.. Walter Ra-
thenau. the Foreign Minister, admitted
to THE NEW YORK HERALD correspond
ent that German railways were OF
doubtful value. Fuerstenburg thinks
that German industry. with actual pro-
duction and profit. offers better security.
German bankers agree that the sta
blization of the mark is a considera-
tion of the first Importance. but they
disagree as to what real value they
would give the paper mark They seem
afraid that giving the mark its face
value would, open the door to big spe-
culative profits for those outsiders who
bought when 1t was low.

General Impression i'm London
Is Premier Has Grown i'm =
Peoples Estimation.

Special Gable TO THE NEW YORK HERALD
Copvrioht, 1929, by THE New YORK HERALD
New York Herald Bureau.
London. May Is.
Officials in Whitehall admit they are
unable to keep up with affairs at
Genoa. Judging by the lobbies of the
Commons and newspaper comment
with the exception of the Northcliffe
press-Mr Lloyd George. whatever his
failures at Genoa. has grown in the
estimation of the folk at home He
is expected back at the end of the
week. and will probably appeap before
Parliament next week and report on
the results achieved. 1t is believed he
will find political support there.
During the Prime Minister'S absence
Parliament has been strkingly subdued
In Its criticism of the Government in
ternational policy and Austen Chamber
lain, the Government leader In the
Commons, has received the best of sup
port, which is taken in political circles
as an indication Of the manner in which
the Premier will be received.
The press is not pesslmistic. The
DUfy Netcs still expects the "squabble"
will be patched up. adding that there
are obvious advantages to all parties In
the proposed Hague conference. If Amer
lea really can be persuaded to intervene
officially. the outlook is not at all un-
promising"
The Star hopes the French people. II
not the French politicians, will realize
that the Entente exists for a greater
object than the collection of Russian
debts
The STANDARD thinks there are mary
things to be thankful for because the
Entente still exists and a way out may
be found at The Hague.
The Pail MdH Gdsette, with the high
est praise for Mr.. Lloyd George, says
that he alone prevented the economic
! conference being completely wrecked BY
Premier Poincare, and insists that the
economic revival and the pacification
OF Europe be pursued, declaring that
the Powers cannot agree TO indorse an
unending paralysis. apprehension and
poverty to please the French This issue
has brought us within sight OF a very
definite parting of the ways"
The Westminster Gazette believes the
central problem Of the Genoa conference
remains n question for negotiation by
the European countries and says
Clearly, the moment, the Franco Bri-
tish-Russian triangle defles solution
The deadlock would seem to be COM
plete. Nothing short of radical change
in the attitude of the French can make
il possible for Mr.. Lloyd George to dis
ccvcr a formula which will secure at
tho same time French acquiescence and
Russian acceptance"
Pessimistic about The Hague. Il says :
THE HagIe like Genoa. can only pro-
duce concrete result IL allied solidarity
is abandoned We have TO choose be-
tween agreement with Russia and for
NAL maintenance OF the Entente. II Is
not n pleasant choice nor one to be
made lightly. but # is choice which
canont be avoided"
The Times says THE world will
utter sigh Of deep and heartfelt relief
that the delegation have left Genoa
without working mlscihefs even greater
than those known. 10 has made plain
the folly OF the idea upon which 1t was
based"

RUSSIAN QUESTION PASSED
TO THE HAGUE MEETING

ment with Russia and an agreement
seems satisfied that 1t has done good
in making plain what can and what
cannot be attained. Every one has
agreed to truce pending The Hague
negotiations, and Mr.. Lloyd George
said to-day: II hope The Hague meet
ing will succeed and the temporary
truce become a permanent non-aggres-
sion agreement over a long period Of
years."
Credits Soviet's Great Need.
lie explained that Germany was not
included in the truce because her
treaty with Russia, on one side, and
the Versailles treaty, on the other, pre-
vented aggression by her.
Rakovsky reiterated once more that
the real need of the Soviet Government
was credits, big credits. and credits di-
rect to the Soviet Government, adding
that should such credits not be granted
all other credits would be futile. That
is the situation into which the United
States is being invited to step.
The Russians still insist they cannot
be blamed for talking communism.
They say they represent a communist
State. But apart from the question of
adjusting the communist and capitalist
views on property to some workable
compromise, as between the western
nations and Russia, the allied dele
gates feel that The Hague meeting
will be strictly on a business basis
Even the French are now disposed
to feel that if the matter be confined
to experts who have no political axes
to grind at home.though their ulti-
mate decision be subject to a check by
the home Government-somew workable
compromise may be attained.
Rakovsky, too, intimated as much
to-day when he declared that Russia
was willing to make many concessions
to the capitalist system if they should
not involve direct challenge of COM
munism, in return for credits for COM
munist needs. He again defended the
Soviet Governments right to nation
alze foreign property by citing west
ern performances of the same sort,
both past and present.
