WIRTH BREAKS RECORDS
AS GERMAN PREMIER
Holds Office for Full Year-Suc-
cess Considered Vindication of
Official Program.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, May 1O.-The premiership
record in republican Germany is now
held by DR.. Joseph Wirth. who today
observed the first anniversary of his
incumbency as chancellor. The coali-
tion organs believe that the fact he
has been able to hold on for one
year is the best vindication of his
official program since the allies
threatened to invade the Ruhr sector
unless Germany accepted the repara-
tions decision.
Amy other policy would be a crime
against the Germon people," Vor-
waertS observes. adding an express
sion of satisfactio that the course
iof events has also proved the ma
jority socialists justified in supporting e
DR.. Wirth's policies.
Germania, which is the chancellor's
personal organ, says.
DR.. Wirth has dragged German
which it strayed. declaring that if
our words are not believed. then we
must demonstrate by deeds that the
task expected of us gets beyond our
capacity
This paper admits that a steep and
thcrny path still lies ahead for
Germany.
The conservative Ereuzzeitung fails
to discover any occasion for adulation
in the fact that DIR. Wirth has been
able to hold out for a year. and de-
May 81 is still ahead of US" says
the TAPER. "Wirth's chancellorship
has only driven US further into the
bondage of our former foes"
