Special Dispatch to The Star.


i. NEW YORK. May 6.-1t cannot be
said that events of the past week
have thrown much light upon the
larger problems Of world finance.
Whether in the end the nations of
Europe will be able to sink their indi-
vidual differences and agree upon a
program OF economic reconstruction
is quite as uncertain as it was when
the Genoa conference assembled a
month ago. AS the British premier
has pointed out, Russia and Germany
compose together nearly two-thirds
OF the population of continental Eu-
rose. There can be no rehabilitation
Ettti these nations get on their feet
financially and recover at least some
approach to their normal buying
power.
Russia cannot do this without an
external loan and the restoration of
trade relations with other countries.
Germany cannot do it if pressed so
hard on reparations payments that
she taxes herself to the breaking
point; TO the point. that is, where in
dustries languish for want of the
proper incentive of profit.
These propositions are clear to every
reasoning person. Yet whether in the
end they will triumph over selfish ma
tional interests is something which
at the moment is certainly far from
clear.
Hope for German Loan.
The fact that there has been no
further deterioration in value, despite
the enormous addition to the paper
supply. indicates plainly strong un-
dercurrent of hope that the pending
negotiations with British and Ameri-
can bankers will result in the fiota-
ton of a German security issue in the
international markets.
AS was pointed out week ago. this
Is the only solution, apparently. of the
German war indemnity question. Even
doubling her taxes and with forced
loan, raising her budgetry income 200
per cent. there is still a heavy deficit.
If this is not met by an outside loan.
