STRIKES INTENSITY
FINANCIAL CHAOS
Red Danger Denied, But
Monarchist Opposition
Increases.

. OHNASA-Ns July lO. - Inc GeTHldn
government, negotiating with the
guaranty committee of the repara-
tons commission. has accepted all
the measures demanded by the en-
tente for financial control Of Ger
. many.
To help relieve the present fnan-
cial panic Germany wants a loan Of
4.ooo.ooO.0O0 gold marks 1,000. .000.-
OoO, and Secretary Bergman, who
has just been sent to Paris has been
authorized to ask the reparations
commission for this amount, accord
ing to reliable sources here.
This loan, coupled with a request
for the immediate meeting of the
Morgan bankers committee and ar
rangements for a moratorium, con-
stitute GermAnys plans for stabili-
zation.
Situation Is Acute.
The first reports from the German
delegates at Paris. according to men,
bers of the Reichstag. give some
grounds for optimism. inasmuch as
they indicate that the French diplo-
mats have taken the subject under
consideration without protesting.
This one hopeful ray. however. has
not changed the feeling that the sit
ustion is the most critical of any
since the 1918 revolution. Two ele-
ments, industrial and political. are
Y helping to intensity the pessImism.
In the Ruhr district small groups
OF coal miners are already going on
a strike, instead of waiting until
August /. when the wage strike be-
gins officially. In the political situ-
alton the opposition of the mon
RrchSsts and reactionaries to the gov
ernment's measures is growing
stronger.
Chancellor wirth has declared
himself against dissolution of the
Reichstag asd calling of general
elections, declaring the natio1's re-
ations with foreign countries would
be endangered thereby. The repub-
leans who are pressing for cleo
ions are assured OF a republican
Victory, but the chancellor as well
as the cabinet feel that America
hnd the entente believe the situa-
lion would be more dangerous II
general elections were called.
Deny Red Uprising.
The cabinet and the Reichstag
however, deny reports in America
and in entente countries that Ger
many is threatened by a red as
well as a monarchist revolution.
For the present, officials declare,
there is no danger OF any red up
rising. The entry of the inde-
pendent socialists into coalition
with the administration strengthens
the government.
However, danger from monarch
SITS persists. This could be better
fought IL the coalition was
strengthened by more socialist
parties joining. which would en-
hble the government to clean out
the monarchists from the army. po-
lice, militia and courts. as well as
wipe out the secret murder organ
izations.
A striking feature OF the mon
erchists' situation is the fact that
khe republican members of the
eichstag are coming to the meet
gs carrying loaded revolvers. All
i've seen the monarchist murder
st with their names following DR..
athenau's.
