CONSTITUTION DAY
F|zzLES IN BERLIN
Few of PopuIace Inclined to
Celebrate Anniversary of
Present Regime.
By the Associated Press.


BERLIN, August 11.-"Constitution
day as it was outwardly observed
in Greater Berlin yesterday, once
more suggested that in Berlin, Ger
many is "a republic without Republi-
cans"
The sturdy efforts of the cham
pions of Democracy to turn the fifth
anniversary of the adoption of the
Weimar constitution into rousing
demonstration for the young Republic
and a militant challenge to the Ma
tionalists and the Bavarian FaScisto
met with only a sluggish response.
Republican colors were only sparce-
ly displayed and a scant 5000 Joined
in a parade.
Opposition Press Active.
German Democracy's apparently
rocky road affords the Nationalist
torial chuckles. The Republican
form of government and the parlia-
mentary system are totally unsuited
to the needs Of the German people,
in the opinion Of the kreuz Zeitung,
the venerable monarchial journal,
which calls for return to the
methods of Bismarck.
Staunch optimism is reflected In
the editorials appearing in the
Liberal and Socialist organs, which
are anything but disheartened at
the uphill task confronting German
democracy. These newspapers see
the republics salvation in the nations
youth.
President Ebert and the members
Of the Prussian ministry led the cele-
bration in Muenster. Westphalia-
There were numerous demonstrations
staged by the new Republican league
of "Black Red and Cold, through
out Germany. Reports received in
dicate that these were literally at
tended. especially one in Munich,
Bavaria, where the Clerical, Demo-
cratic and Socialist parties united in
observing the day, notwithstanding
the police embargo on open-air
meetings.
The German government will OFF,
cially commemorate Constitution
day" today in a series of public
ceremonies in which President Ebert,
members of the cabinet and mem
bers of the Reichstag will take part.
Chancellor Marx has abandoned his
intention to return to Berlin from
London for the event, owing to the
necessity for him to be present at
the international conference.
One of the chief celebrations of
today took place at Weimar, where
former president Of the Reichstag
Loebe and President Hugo Preuss de-
livered addresses.
