FIRMLY IN POWER

StreSemann Declares Resist

CHtttU lIbo6 DAuU COJTtSDORttHb
BERLIN, Aug. 15.-Chancel-
lor Stresemann coalition gov.
ernment appeared firmly in
power today after its presenta.
ton to the Reichstag yesterday
and a strong vote of confidence
by that body.
A majority of the middle groups of
public opinion seemed in full accord
with the Government and ready to
back It against the Communists and
extreme reactionaries - the only
groups in open opposition.
Meantime. the internal situation
showed signs of calming, despite new
outbreaks yesterday in Aaschen (Aix-
La-Chappelle) and vicinity, in which
ten were killed and upward of 100
wounded, and extension OF the strikes
in the chemical and electrical indus
tries at Frankfurt.
Downs Eeckiars
The new chancellor's opening
speech in the Relchstag. during which
he boldly downed Communist heck
ling. showed the new government will
follow out the same broad lines as
the preceding Cabinet of DR.. Wilhelm
Cuno.
Stresemann declared himself in ia
vor of consolidation of the political
and economic situation as an indis.
pensable preliminary resumption OF
reparations payments. continuation of
passive resistance. which, he said, was
fully justified in the last British note
to France, and an internal gold loan
to provide funds for adjustment of
wages as demanded by the workers.
Appeals to Farmers
The chancellor appealed to the agri.
culturists to relieve the food situation.
admitting the government could not
expect the workers to remain quiet
unless they were assured an adequate
food supply.
In general interview following
his appearance in the Reichstag
Stresemann told newspapermen Paris
is deceived If 1T thinks the change in
German government indicates an end
TO GermanY's resistance program.
The chancellor said his new tax
program was expected to ameliorate
finances considerably and reiterated
the policy that Germany considers the
Rhine provinces as inYiolate.
Ruhr Necessary to Germany
Regarding the Ruhr. Stresemann
said 1t will always remain the soul of
industry and a necessary symbol of
the nations material accomplish
ments.
The chancellor attributed internal
confusion to a breaking of the popu-
lar nerve.
Nothing is so bad for a nation as
not to know its future" he said. But
a people with the great past Of Ger
many need not fear. We still have
the power to carve our own destiny"
Throwing a warning to France,
Stresemann said it would not be safe
to press the German people too far.
Disruption. he said, would mean boil
shevism, poison that would not
halt within German borders"
DR.. Cuno, 1t was reported. has been
mentioned as new German ambassa-
dor for Washington. a post he prob
ably would accept.
