BERLIN, August 30.-When in
their sympathy with Germany, Amer
leans and others in the diplomatic
boxes of the Reichstag chamber
cheered the vote of acceptance of the
Dawes plan on Friday, the German
Super-Nationalists and Communists
turned and shook their fists at the
diplomats. However. this does not
express the general sentiment here.
There is no doubt that Germany ap-
proves ratification of the London
agreement and a two-thirds majority
is even les than the plan would have
received had a referendum been held.
There is no chance of passive resis-
tance if the French do not try again
to annex German territory.
On Friday, as soon as the result Of
the voting vas known, the govern
ment wired the German Ambassador
in London to sign the agreement to-
day.
Ludendorff Votes Against.
Gen. Ludendorff, Herr Hergt, Count
Won Westarp, Herr Geisler and Herr
Oh1er voted against the laws. But
Admiral Won Tirpitz, President Wall
raft of the Reichstag and Prince Bis
marck voted for them.
Center Party. the Bavarian Peoples
Party. the Economic Union Party, the
Democrats and the Social Democrats
voted Solidly for the plan. Forty
eight Nationalists voted for il and 54
against it, thus making two-thirds
majority. the vote being 314 to 217.
The German Nationalists. however,
did not give their votes for nothing

The chancellor said:
Deny War Guilt.
The war guilt was falsely ac-
knowledged under pressure and does

Gen. Ludendorff is openly dis
pleased at acceptance of the Dawes
plan. He said to Admiral Bruening-

Party: Ten years after Tannenberg

him became necessary not when "he
began to assert his right and duty"
but when he began to show com
plete misunderstanding Of the united
front tactic, and when he began to
apply the united front in Chicago in
the wrong way.
The Majority and Lore
Comrade Cannon denies that tina
majority had any alliance with any
other group. shall leave this to the
c. e. c. members and to the comrades
Of New York to answer. Just a few
facts about the last party convention.
Comrade Cannon claims that his
group had clear cut majority at the
last convention. The true Of the
matter is that the Foster-Cannon
group had at most 20 delegates solidly
on their side. The Finnish block Of
10 and the Lore group had the bal
ance Of power which helped to elect
the present C. z. c.
Since the convention the alliance
continued both on the C. z. G. and
way down the line and this helped
not so much the Foster-Cannon group
as It did the Lore group. Sufice it to
point to New York City to show that
since last convention the Lore group
has grown In strength and in infiu-
ence and now represents a real danger
to thu party.
We welcome any attempt 70 take
up openly the issues involved in
stead of trying to invent shifting
issues" as the majority was doing
up to now.
