Minister Luther. in II statement to
the press yesterday on the prospects
of the Dawes loan to Germany, said
that America need not fear German
competition in trade as it was i'm
possible for this country to achieve
what she did before the war because
her sources of raw material had
been diminished by the loss of I.or-
raine her colonies, valuable parts
of East Prussia and her Upper
Silesian coal mines.
DIR. Luther added that Germany
had paid her first installment for the
service of the loan, namely 10000, 900
marks, into the account at the
Rcichs bank of the agent general of
reparations.

tion of Austria and Hungary. Then
amid ringing applause, NJ. Hymans
turned his attention to those oppo-
nents Of the league who degrade
love OF country into an egottsticaI
and ferocious nationalism." He
scourged those who deem human
solidarity to be irreconcilable with
the idea Of country and declared that
countries were enlarged and i'm
proved by adherence to the league.
The other notable address was de-
livered by DR.. Motta. who was elect
ed to the presidency with the sup
port or 45 out OF the ~ states repre-
sented in the assembly.
Fidelity to the idea of and faith In
the future of the League of Nations

there had grown up among all sec
tions of the population a feeling of
friendly interest in the work of the
league and a general desire that 1t
may grow in influence and powers.
This change. he said, had come be-
cause the true character Of the league
was now better understood. 1t is
looked upon in the United States, ac-
cordinE to the speaker. not as a su-
perstate or league to enforce peace,
but as an institution for mutual coun-
sci and a means Of manufacturing
consent.
He informed his audience that. ire
spective Of the results of the Novem-
ber election. he believed the relations
of the United States to the league
would continue to develop until per-

American people may suddenly find
that in all essential respects, except
that Of form, their government is a
member of the league.
