4 ElNations
in Europe
Face Crisis
Germany, Belgium, England
and France Are Threatened
by Situation in Ruhr
District.
French "Sitting Tight
By MARK SULLIVAN.

Paris, June 29.-Attempts of Bri-
tain and France to come to an under
standing about what to say to Ger
many in answer to its note, now al
ready three weeks old. have been in
terrupted by the prolonged minis
terial crisis in Belgium.
!. The cause commonly given for that
risis is the dispute about the Flem-
5h language. But another cause
keighing as much is Belgian discon-
lht with the occupation of the Ruhr.
zgium imports more than so per
1t Of the wheat it must have for
Tread. For those imports of wheat
'sit pays with exports of manufac-
tured goods.
The invasion of the Ruhr has inter-
fered with Belgian manufacturers to
an extent that makes. 1t uneasy
about a possible economic crisis. For
this reason, opinion in Belgium
swings steadily to the British point
of view about the Ruhr against the
French.
Break Is Feared.
But Premier Theunis, the only man
of much political power in Belgium.
by temperament and due to circum-
stances, is fearful of a break with
the French government. As soon as
Belgium gets q new ministry, British
and French negotiations will go on.
Four European nations in one de.
gree or another and in the order
named, are headed for trouble be-
cause OF the Ruhr. Germany is on
the verge of an imminent crisis, and
steps are already being taken on the
assumption that within a short time
Germany will need relief from Amer
lea in the organized way previously
furnished TO Austria and Russia.
Next to Germst-.y, Belgium is the
most menaced. and any prolongation
of the Ruhs crisis win bring it to a
Sfrisis. Britain has upward of 1,000,-
900 Of unemployed, and its only ex-
Asctatioa of relief lies in an ending
lefthe paralysis in the Ruhr.
France .Sitting Tight
France is not suffering now and
Goes not anticipate trouble, largely
because it is practicing credit in
flation, feeding itself within its
own borders. and is trying to limit
imports to maintain an equilibrium
with exports. Everybody knows,
however, that complete collapse in
Germany will mean ultimately seri-
Gus economic and financial conse-
quences for France.
But France knows that IL is better
fixed for long strain than any of
the other nations involved. and its
policy of sitting tight" is based upon
that confidence.
