WIRTH PLEADS
FOR CHANCE
FOR GERMANY
CONTINUED from Page One

there can be no return to safety and
prosperity. If the whole weight were
put on us suddenly, there would, Of
course, be an immediate crash and we
would be flat on our backs.
"The fact that the burden is being
imposed gradually has postponed the
crash, but it grows heavier all the time
as our ability to carry the load is di-
minished. In the end ii is bound to
break us down. When the break comes
the economic consequences to the rest
Of the world are obvious to every SEN
sibe man who knows the situation. 1t
does not take prophet to forecast
them.
"The vital question is, repeat, will
the world see and act in time to pre-
vent the crash. A year ago the pres
ent German Government formed its
policy on Preparations. 1t seemed to
US that the only way to convince the
world of the complete impossibility
and unbearable hardship of the repa-
rations demands was to start in and
go to the extreme limit of our ability
to pay. This we have done. In less
than year, when we applied to the
Bank of England for a loan to enable
US to continue, it was declined on the
ground that we were 9; bankrupt ma
ton and our credit was no good.
"My conviction is that in the last
year we have convinced good part
of the world both Of the good faith
with which Germany has tried to meet
the demands and Of the impossible and
crushing nature Of the demands them
selves"

LEND A HAND

Everyone has read with horror of
the frightful conditions that exist IN
Central and Eastern Europe. FAMINE
and the plague alike claim victims.
Human beings, driven insane by the
hungar madness, became raVenlng
wolves. The picture might be enlarged
in a manner that would revolt even
the most hardened person, but thcre
is no need of that. When famishng
human beings devour their own KIND,
words are futile. m
This thing must be stopped. Inc
fact that the stricken country IS Rus
STA does not count. The fact that the
people may be to blame in measure,
for the doom they have brought upon
themselves is nothing in their houf
Of need.
They must be helped. All must lend
a hand. This is no time to stop TO take
account of things, to weigh matters,
to see lust what we can do. 1t IS a
time to act.
No matter how small it may be;
Give. Alone, little may be accomplish
cd, but together great deal may De
done. Russia can be rescued, the starry
ing fed, the fever stricken restored,
little children saved.
Nor can this country hope to pros
per until this plague-spot IS wiped
ont. That is an economical, CONNER
cial fact. The old world must be cured
Of its ills, physical and mental, and
we must play the good Samaritan. Our
Jewish friends have never been nlg-
gardly when called upon to aid any
Christian enterprise. Nor should we
fail them in their hour of need. Give
generously to the relief fund. Help
raise Virginia's quota.
Lend ahard,
