GERMAN ELECTIONS
RAISE BIG DOUBT
Policies of New Reichstag Are Declar-
ed to Be Very Much in
the Air.

Berlin - An official recount of the
returns from Sundays elections for
the Reichstag, announced at noon to-
day, comedies the United Socialists 100
votes, the Nationalists Sc, the Center
party or Clericals 81, the Democrats
%, the Communists 81, the People
party Al and the Bavarian Peoples par
ty 16.
The big coalition, comprising the
Socialists, Clericals, Democrats and
Peoples party members, still COM
mands slight majority, which will be
safeguarded by ten votes from the
middle class league and the Bavarian
peasants league, and eventually those
of the Bavarian peoples party.
The parliamentary leaders admit that
the situation is not yet wholly clar-
flied. but they view any coalition not
including the Socialists as a remote
possibility, unless the nationalists make
an unequivocal announcement of their
complete concurrence with the Dawes
report and give assurance of their
support for the foreign policies inaug-
urated and pursued by the present
government.
The preponderance of opinion in po-
litical circles inclines to the belief
that the new government will be COM
posed of. the three middle parties now
in office, with the active support Of
the socialists vouchsafed for it, or
that straight four-party govern
ment,. comprising the Socialists and
present parties in power will succeed
the Marx-Stressmann cabinet.

not know that it is the upkeep that

foot the bill that the costs would more
than offset the fine, as they paid out
each ten bucks or Whereabouts.

He then told the judge with the
familiarity of an old friend, that
"John was dead" and after they had
exchanged some courtesies he went out
to pay his fine without a croak."

In an effort to equip workers and

WILL NOT ARREST
LOCAL PHYSICIAN
Evidence in Death of Nurse
Insufficient to War
rant Action.
DOCTOR TELLS SIDE

There. will be no warrant issued for
the arrest of the Kenosha physician
who was named last FRIDAY hv Harriet
Walske, 29-year-old Willowbrook
nurse, in a death-bed statement, as
the man who performed an illegal OPP
Grafton on her.
This statement was made today by
Morris Barnett, district attorney, fol-
lowing a conference in Milwaukee with
Roland Steinle, assistant prosecutor OF
that county, to whom the girl made
her statement. Mr.. Barnett stated
that the evidence was not sufficient to
warrant any official action in the mat
ter. Aa
Had the girl lived five minutes long
er she might have signed dying
statement which would have been
complete enough for the state to pro-
coed on, Mr.. Barnett said. AS it was,
death sealed her lips just after she
had mentioned the Kenosha physi-
clans name and before she could tell
any of the circumstances which, ac-
cording to Mr. Barnett, are absolutely
vital evidence.
Mr.. Barnett pointed out that the
state Is in ignorance of the date of
the alleged offense. While It is be-
lieved TO have been about the 18th of
April, there Is nothing definite, for
the girl dis not name any date before
she died.
The physician who is accused had a
conference with the district attorney,
it was learned today. He informed
the prosecutor that he had advised the
girl to go to a hospital here in Keno
sha, and that when she refused, he
asked her if she would be willing to
go to Racine, but this she also de-
clined to do for fear that her difficult
ty would beSdiscovered by her family,
or her friends here in Kenosha.
However, when she became SO seri-
ously i'll, the physician told the dis
trict attorney, she agreed to send for
Milwaukee. BY this time she was so
i'll, that the trip had to be made in an
ambulance.
"Tried to Help Her."
The physician stated that the girls
condition was serious when she first
came to his office. She represented
herself as married woman from
Chicago, but according to the doctor,
stated that she was not now living
with her husband.
He said that he tried to help her,
as he would help any, other patient in
need of medical aid, but denied that
he had committed any criminal act.
The act, he said, had been committed
kntfc rLo ~ L L.
refused to be taken to hospital, he
told the prosecutor, he agreed to treat
her at the hotel.

CONFIDENCE NEEDED
TO HOLD PROSPERITY
Head Of United States Chamber of
Commerce Shows Heed of
Stability.

Cleveland, Ohio Virtually all eco
monte factors point to quick healthy
expansion of world commerce as soon
as business confidence in America is
restored by clearer definition Of gov
ernmental relationship to business,
Julius II. Barnes, president of the
United States Chamber of Commerce
predicted in his annual address to the
twelfth annual convention of the
chamber. Approximately 5000 repre-
sentatives of business organizations
are attending the four-day sessions.
Rehabilitation of European com
merce, which is expected to result
from the operation of the Dawes re-
port on German finances, was pointed
to by Mr.. Barnes as perhaps the most
hopeful sign on the horizon of world
industry. At home, he pointed to the
recuperating agricultural industry
and a perceptible sterilization of the
tokens of continued prosperity.
The present tendency toward re-
trenchment, he said, was due almost
entirely to financial uncertainty grow
ing out off the present governmental
situation in Washington, in which
policies in taxation and transportation,
two fundamental factors in the indus
trial life of the nation, are awaiting
determination.
The decision will clear the track for
business to proceed at full speed-if
it is not made too late, Mr.. Barnes
said
Almost without exception the coun-
tries of Europe today are making no.
ticeable progress toward political and
economic stability.
