DEFENDS HIS
ADMINISTRATION
StreSemann Makes Long Ad-
dress to the ReiChStag
Today
TALKS OF PREPARATIONS
German Government De-
mandS Positive Vote of
Confidence
TALKS OF PREPARATIONS

BERLIN, Nov. % (By The Asso-
ciated Press) In the course OF a
vigorous defense of his administra-
tion before the Reichstag today,
Chancellor Stresemann welcomed
the renewed American interest in
the reparation problem and said
he hoped an international confer
ence would be convoked.
He also took the occasion to deny
the report published in the German
press that the government had been
officially approached by American
financiers and added that he had
not been informed of any impending
international financial action.
The address, which occupied two
hours in delivery, dealt at length
with both the foreign and internal
situations, and was wholly in the
nature of a vindication of the chan
cellor's policies.
The government is to demand a
positive vote of confidence from the
Reichstag, the outcome of which is
yet in doubt. DR.. Stresemann was
literally applauded by the three
government parties, but their com
bined vote is insufficient to give him
a majority vote.
The Reichstag was heavily picket
ed with security police in order to
prevent the entry of the Communist
Deputy Remmele, who was barred
from the session in consequence of
his obstructive tactics yesterday.
DR.. Stresemann said that, despite
Germany's serious position, efforts
would be made to continue negotia-
tions with France because the Ger
man government desired to leave no
stone unturned in its efforts to effect
an agreement and improvement in
the situation.
The Reiehstag, however must not
be led away by the idea that conces-
sions to France would do much TO
help Germany. The Reich was in
too weak a condition to force coun-
ter-concessions from France.
LONDON, Nov. 22-In his address
before the Reichstag today Chancel-
lor Stresemann is quoted by
Agency dispatches from Berlin as
declaring that his government would
relinquish office if it were consid-
cred necessary, ald that he hoped
the Reicbstag would make up it's
mind quickly in order that he
might know whether he should con-
tinue.
He declared that Germany's in
ternal position was hopeless, and so
far as he could see there was not the
slightest prospect of effecting i'm
provement.

FOUND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG

Have you ever done a piece OF work,
conscious at the time that something
was vitality wrong with II. but unable
to figure out the defect until after
the job was finlshedl
The feeling that something Is
wrong floats up vaporlike from the
subconscious mind, one Of every per-
sons two brains.
A Toronto doctor toiied evenings
for two winters building In his cellar
an eighteen-foot motorboat for Mus
koka lakes. At that time he was con-
scious that something was wrong.
but could not figure II out. though
he pondered In detail everything from
engine to paint.
When II came time 10 take the boat
10 the freight train he abruptly
learned what had bothered his sub
conscious brain: There was no way
Of getting the boat out OF the cellar
except by tearing q big hole In the
foundations Of the house and digging
deep opening 70 the outside.
