BERLIN, Nov. 13 (By The Associated
Press).-The German government to-
night forwarded formel note TO the
Reparation Commission in Paris in
forming the commission that the
Reichsbank is prepared to advance the
German government 50o,ooo,o0o gold
marks toward loan to stabilize the
mark, provided an equal amount is
Forthcoming from abroad and subject
to the conditions proposed by foreign
financial experts who recently visited
Berlin, as essential for the success of
the stabilization project.
In connection with the attempted
reconstruction Of the Cabinet the Social
Democratic party has addressed let
ter to Chancellor Wirth, in which it
is declared that the stabilization of the
mark is the most urgent question of
Germany policy and that the party will
participate only in Cabinet which en-
ergetically pursues sucn policy.
The fate of the Wirth government
tonight seemed to depend on the
Chancellor's ability to effect an early
reconciliation between the United So
cialists and the German Peoples party
by inducing the latter to make spe-
cific declaration of it's attitude on the
stabilization program demanded by the
radicals as one of their conditions to
further participation in the present
coalition.
The Socialists tonight passed q
resolution to remain out of anv Cabi-
net which failed to designate stabiliza-
tion as an urgent cardinal feature Of
its program, thereby putting the issue
up to the Peoples party, which earlier
in the day informed the Chancellor of
its refusal to enter the government in
any official capacity, or even to permit
two Of it's members to become minis
ters without holding themselves &C.
countablo to the party.
While the radicals are strongly sus-
pected Of applying polite political CO.
ercion to the situation by debating
terms to the Chancellor and the Peo-
ported to be determined not TO sur
render his conviction that the Peoples
party must become an integral part of
the present coalition Oh straight
party basis In this he Is backed up by
the Clericals, Democrats and the Ba-
varian Peoples party.
AT the conclusion Of ten hours Of
inter-party deliberations, Reichstag
circles tonight were more optimistic
regarding the Chancellor's ability to
appease the Socialists and also to
smooth the path for the Peoples par
ty's entry into the government, in view
of the formal note which the govern
ment sent to Paris tonight informing
the Reparation Commission Of the
Reichsbank's offer TO advance 500,0o0,-
900 gold marks in the program TO sta
bilize the mark.
PARIS, Nov. 13 (By The Associated
Press).-The Reparation Commission
this evening, after three hours of dis
cussion Of the situation of Germany,
financially and economically, as viewed
during its recent visit to Berlin, found
itself just as far from agreement as
when the session began. The Ameri-
can unofficial sentatives-Roland
W. Boyden and Colonel James A. Logan
jr.-participated in the session.
A deadlock in the commission again
seems imminent. Although it is reli-
ably reported that M. Barthou, the
chairman, has been favorably i'm
pressed with the proposed solution con-
taineo IN the report Of the foreign ex-
perts who recently went to Berlin to
study the situation, it is said that
Premier Poincare insists upon the i'm
position upon Germany of rigid guar
antics before everything else.
