S. P. Of Germany, was, in serious
crisis, saved by the social democrats;
for, had the S. p. of Germany openly
voted against the agreement and in
sisted upon division, many a bour-
geeis deputy, representing a rural dis
trict would have thought twice as to
how he should cast his vote. No one
can say whether in these circum-
stances Luther and Stresemann would
have managed to hold their majority.
The Spanish trade agreement thus
showed the actual grouping of classes
in Germany: the S. p. of Germany
with the bourgeois parties on the side
Of capital, and the c. p. of Germany
representing the interests OF the work

however an intense counter-pressure
set in on the part of the large bour-

threatened to resign if the German

WHAT then was the attitude OF the
W S. P. Of Germany? This social
