 .5 BERLIN, July 26.-Germany, as Represented by her chancellor ana Foreign minister, will go Detore the London reparations conference as nation with rights of her own, atnAtion no longer frightened and 1ervile as she was at the fateful Versailles peace conference.
 s Chancellor Marx and Foreign Minister Stresemann, with a reti- -nue of thirty or forty exports and secretaries are preparing to accept ahe invitation from the allies which will take them to London for pre- sentation of the German case" There is no doubt here that the lr1- .Vitation. will be forthcoming. Its receipt is expected not lat than Monday night. - - Voice From America
 Meantime, voice from America has Anspired the Germans to greater confi- &ence in themselves. The insistence of 4he American bankers on strict guaran- tees for the $200,000,000 loan to Ger many, with their demand that she be protected from precipitous occupation of her territory, has stiffened the Ger man spine materially. It has helped Gustav ;Stresemann, foreign minister. Sn his determination to quit office rath- 0rs than@accept dictation or an agree ment from the allies which would fail sogpfovide in binding terms for the evac- Nation of the Ruht.
 The folks party introduced a resolu- aior in the reichstag today expressing lack of confidence in the Marx govern 1neiit, but it was defeated by good ma jDrity, 172 to 62. with @ members ab- nfaining. The communists joined the folks party in supporting the resolution. The natioaelists were among the ab- mtainers. But the interest of Germany 6; directed rather to the American atti- tude, and it's probable influence on the French, than to a parliamentary vic tory that possessed little significance. This was reflected in the speech before the .reiehstag2by. Deputy Herr Hetzsch, who commented upon Americas par tieipation in the London conference. 7 'fIt is undoubtedly a novelty of great importance" he said, ''that the United States now participates in an allied conference more intensively than she ever has before. This is also true re- kpecting Secretary Hughes significant speech before the Pilgrims dinner in London" .,s fsf Has Been Warned U s4CSermany has been warned to proceed cautiously if she is invited to London a1ad not to ruin her case in advance. Hence she is not making such noisy pro- tests against unacceptable demands as she has in the past, despite this at- tempt at discretion, the correspondent learn that Stresemann intends to argue before the allied statesmen along the : following lines: ..5 ; 1-The RGhr and the so-called 'sanc- fion area'' must be evacuated. (The Dawes report itself makes this clear.
 &The old customs boundaries must be restored. -
 3-Germany must have the Ruhr in- tact. administratively and economically and must know definitely that the allied troops are retiring at an early date.
 1.-The regime of the Rhineland com mission must cease.
 B-French and Belgian railroad direc' tors, should be withdrawn from Ger, many, on the theory that they disrupt the transport organization and are con trary to the. spirit of restoration urged in the Dawes report.
 6-Germany must not be subjected to sanctions at the pleasure of NJ Poincare and his group. .f.1+ To Go Easy
 Stresemann has thought over these ideas thoroughly and decided to urge them before the allies, but he has been careful not to identify himself too clsoe, lY with any spirit of ''I will do this h4-
 or q will not do that"
 2 Chancellor Marks restrained state Tnent in the reichstag Friday showed how carefully the government is trying to keep an even keel and prevent un timely outbursts of extravagant state nients in advance. Both Stresemanr and Marx realize that any torpedoin9 of the Dawes program would mean real catastrophe to Germany. The ma tfonalists also know that. so their de u5ands are not regarded as dooming oi eyen 2damning the Dawes report, pro yided the London conference reaches reasonable agreement on sanctions anG the Ruhr evacuation,
 E But if the allies maintain their oc enpation of the Ruhr, it is likely that fsernany will explode the Dawes plan Even :pacifists declare they will refuse .to sign. the provisions of the report Il tke- troops stay in German territory.
