NEW YORK. Dec. 1-Germany is
self-confessedly insolvent. At any
rate. the fact that her direct obiiga-
tion--her token money--is circulat-
ing at discount Of over 80 per cent
of its par value. is tantamount 10
such confession. q.
What steps are necessary for Ger
many and her creditors to take in
order to restore to her some sem
blance Of solvency?
Sir John Bradbury and other ex.
perts rightly consider the stabilizac
tion OF the mark imperative. but 1t
would be childish to lay down a ses
OF rules to be observed by Germany
in her distress unless and until the
whole reparations questions will
have been revised and reparatton
demands are confined within The
limits Of her ability to pay. The
most casual observer must realize
that the equilibrium of the budget;
that is, the balancing of her income
against her expenditures, 10 the sine
Qu non sSondition for the saving
Of her financial situation. But how
can the government establish a bud
get when the very figures OF the
budget are written upon sand!
with the currency gone mad, the
administration OF the finances OF a
country becomes simply Impossible.
First OF all, Germany must check.
II not for her own sake, certainly
for, her creditors' sake, this frantic
currency initiation which has been
going on progressively ever since
the armistice: Austrian and Rus
sian precedents show with merciless
kclarity that, Germany Is rushing
toward a formidable catastrophe,
and the financial and political col
lapse Of Germany would not only be-
a disaster fR Germany; 1t would be
Ia disaster for Europe.
The key-iog In the Jam Is unques-
tionably the reparations problem.
Readjusted on the stern but inexor-
able principle that reparations can
only be paid out of the export sur
plus Of the country, that log may
be idislodged. 1t IL useless to dis
cuss temporary relief in the shape
OF q moratorium or q revenue pro-
gram until this primary question is
settled once for all. .. r.-.'
Germany has immense recupera-
tive powers, which can only come
into play when this primary condi-
ton has been settled. and her credi-
tors are clothed with ample power
to impose conditions out of which
the solution of her present Difficult
ties would. progress automatically.

the stabilimtion of the mark Ii to
be made is a question to be studied
by experts and financiers, but the

sity that the currency must have

gold. that some kind of q gold par
ity must exist. can no longer be
