Fifty years ago DR.. Paul Wagner be-

this institution world renown,
through his Investigations on plant
foods. Doctor Wagner certainly de-
serves to receive great commendation
for having, with the help of his own
method of pot experiments, substan-
TALLY extended, and firmly established
the foundation for the use of CONNER
cial fertilizers.
Ee was the drst TO recognize and
correctly estimate the fertilizing eff
feet of the Thomas phosphate or basic
Stag.
BY a steady improvement in the
methods of fertilizer experiments in
the field, he succeeded in making of
these field experiments practical
means of exact Investigation.
Doctor Wagner, furthermore, has
clearly shown the results of his in
vestigations in the vegetation house,
field ard laboratory, to the practical
farmer, either in articles which are
easily understood. or in inspiring lee
lures; and in this way he has contrib
uted in an enormous degree toward the
proper use Of commercial fertilizers
in agriculture.
Here in the United States many of

~ ERMAN CHANCELLOR CUNO
N on the sixth presented to the
reichstag his version of the situation
between Germany and France, and de-
manded protection from France to be
afforded Germany by the nations that
signed the Versailles treaty, specially
referring by inference to England and
the United States. He inisted that
Germany would not enter direct nego-
tiations with France, but said the gov
eminent was ready for the interven-
ton of third party provided France
would guarantee to eyacuate the
Ruhr after an agreement to negotiate
had been reached.
Much of tbs chancellor's speech was
devoted TO a recital Of what he termed
the acts of violence by France in the
occupied territory. 1t was evident
that that portion of his speech was
intended as much for foreign as for
home consumption. 1t was a species
of German propaganda seeking SYM
patty from other nations. judging
from, press comments throughout the
world 1t did not accomplish its pur-
pose. for the world has not yet for
gotten the violence used by Germany
in dealing with Belgium and France
during the war.
He urged a continuation of the pol
lev Of passive resistance as the only
weapon with which unarmed Germany
could combat the French invasion.
.Tanks and machine guns are sense
less when there is no one opposed. A
sword stroke will cut air" he declared.
ssGermany is without arms in the true
sense of the word, but it has one strong
defensive weapon-that is the strong
will of free men who oppose violence
In obedience to justice. Guns and
dynamite may be good for the destruc-
ton Of factories and mines, but net to
run them"
At the end of his speech the chan
cellor said Germany was willing to
paw to the utmost of it's ability, and
had tried to come to an understanding
with France In this connection he
said:
eve cannot make any offer in f1g-
ures as long as we must reckon on the
destruction Of values in the Ruhr dls-
trict. for it is utterly impossible for US
to have clear ideas as to our capacity
for fulfillment.
ssIf the way is opened to us, free
from foreign pressure, and given equal
rights to confer in open discussion as
to the way leading back to reason and
right, then the government will take
the road. In doing this it will not
sign anything that it cannot fulfill or
approye of any solution which will
abandon the Rhineland, Ruhr, or any
territory occupied Illegally.
eff France wants Germany's destruc-
ton. Germany wants the right to liveA
That is it's right and duty to itself and
other nations.
"What does the world say to this?
What do the nations that signed the
Versailles treaty say? Are they silent
because they have not known about
the violence? Do they want more acts
Of violence? I do not appeal, do not
accuse, when the fate Of the entire
nation, with a threat to the entire con-
tinent. hangs in the balance"
In all but one respect the speech
was satisfactory to the Socialists, but
not so to the Nationalist, who had
hoped for a declaration of armed re-
sistance. The one feature that caused
a sensation among the Socialists was
an interpolated sentence in which ne
