the national jealousies are
whispering War"
And the winds echo back, "And
revolutioni"
Day by day, since the first inkling
that Cologne would not be evacuated
on January 10, as twice promised
Germany by the allies, the German in
terror has been showing an increas-
ing tornado of protest.
The keynote Of the whole Of Ger
many is crystallized in the cry, 1--WE
have been cheated" The social demo-
Gratis, who have beguiled and betray-
ed the German working class into ac-
ceptance of the Dawes plan, who
have tricked the workers into one
trap after another to keep them en-
slaved to capitalism and who have
now shown themselves as betrayers
even of national interests in their
support of the Dawes plan which ri
vets American imperialism's shackles
hard and fast upon Germany-now
stand revealed even to the most back
ward worker.
Monarchists, Too, Not Trusted.
Nor are these workers going to
trust very far the monarchist nation
alists who, they remember, largely
went over to the social-democrats in
accepting the Dawes plan in ex-
change for jobs in the cabinet but
few months ago. The workers of
Germany now can look only to the
Communists to protect both their in
terests as workers and their collec-
tive right of self-determination.
From London comes the report that
while most of the English press is
cautious about commenting on the
evacuation Of the Rhine, the Morning
Post published an article by Briga-
der General Morgan. which claimed
thaE Ge-meny he's concealed her mill
tary strength and has nearly 100000
reserve troops. In series of papers
there are loud praises Of Marshal
Foch and his report
Conflicting interests Threaten.
Dispatches from Paris show that
Herriot can no longer be trusted as
a friend of German-French har-
mony." He conferred with Foch
prior to the allied decision. Today
he conferred again with War Minis
ter Nollet and General Guillaumat,
head Of the army Of occupation. Aft
erward the government issued a note
giving its reasons for continued occu-
patton Of Germany. The note is
hoped by France to be adopted as the
official inter-allied note to Berlin.
France is trying to deny that the
Dawes plan is in peril.
But try to conceal it tho they may,
the conflicting interests of clashing
imperialisms are threatening the
Dawes plan with collapse. European
economy with new dislocations and
western Europe with both war and
revolution.
