England, France and Germany are

Germany's Problem.
In Germany Chancellor Marx is
getting deeper into trouble because he
persists in dealing with too great
complacency with the nationalist par
tv. as the nonarchists are now called.
The result is that, while Germany has
accepted the Dawes plan, and the
present government is determined to
do its utmost to fulfill the terms OF
the document, there is no telling when
Marx will be overthrown. This would
result in either the nationalist or the
extreme left socialists assuming pow
err and repudiating the entire scheme,
1t can be seen, therefore that just
when the international problems OF
Europe appeared on the verge of solu-
ton, Just when another giant stride
was to be made to shake off the Ell
fects of the great war, the individual
nations insist on bringing forth their
domestic problems, fighting them out,
even to the overthrow OF ministries,
and permitting the carefully worked
out international remedies to go by
the board.
