French industrial products at lower
duties than English and American.
One sees that new and strong fac
tor arises here in favor of the French
PAN European movement and Germany
is thus brought face to face with a
fateful decision. Her industry needs
markets in the European southwest, but
she can also not permit her economic
relations with the non-European coun-
tries to atrophy. Hence Germany will
in any event assume the role of inter-
mediary and must endeavor to prevent
the policies of the East European agra
rian bloc from becoming the cause Of
an economic estrangement between Eu-
rope and the rest of the world.
Whether she can succeed in doing
this depends mainly on the commercial
policies of the other continents. If TIA
British Empire-and menacing indica-
tons of this are seen-shuts itself off
from imports of other British goods, if
in the United States no amelioration of
the protectionist system comes about,

PARIS, September 6.-Spectacular
achievements by improved types OF
tanks we're the feature of the first part
of the French Autumn army maneu-
vers just concluded in the mountainous
Haut Maurienne district facing the
which a high degree of Importance is
attached, conferred on an attack on the
frontier town of Modane, which was
defended by a skeleton force. In all
nearly 10000 troops were engaged
under the supervision of Gen. Serrigny,
military governor of Lyons.
The tanks began their extraordinary
performance on the first day of the
maneuverS, when squadron Of six
descended 1900 feet down a mountain
side strewn with boulders on an 80
per cent grade, taking completely by
surprise the defending force. The
lery machine guns, formed the blue"
forces, who were supposed to have
crossed the italian frontier the night
before in an effort to show surprise
attack could quickly gain command Of
the railway running from Hodale to
Paris, thus establishing direct COM
munications with the heart of France.
Represented New Policy.
The skeleton opposing force accu-
rately represents the recently inaugu-
rated French policy-dictated largely
by the reduction of compulsory service
from two years to one year-of oppos-
ing sudden attack by "a covering army
to hold the enemy in check until ma
tional mobilization is completed. The
plan is already subject to attack in
many quarters, although the reorgan-

The demonstration on the southeast
frontier is subsidiary, however, to the
main test of a covering army system
which will be tried out in the neigh
borhood of Metz in the next three days.
when an army of $4,000 under Gen.
Brecard will attempt a counter mag
mary attack In force through Lorraine.
This will present a much more normal
situation by which the merits Of the
covering army system will be more fully
tested.
The results of the critical examina-
ton of these maneuverS are expected
with interest, in view of the recent
doubts cast on the merits Of the plan
and the intermittent nervousness lest
highly trained professional army
should break through the defense be-
fore mobilization could be carried out.

GERMANY FACES
ECONOMIC TASK.
Expert Sees Problem of Pre-
venting Estrangement of
Europe and Rest of World.
BY DIR. GUSTAV sTOLPER.

~ Radio TO The Star.
BERLIN, September 6-Next to the
purely agrarian and raw materials areas
of the American. ASiatic and Australian
Continents, the present agricultural
crisis affects most of the states of
slaVja and Hungary possess no indus
tries and hence they cannot, like Ger
many ameliorate the distress Of their
farmers by granting them Subventions
ct the cost of their industries.
Since the full extent of the agrarian
crisis has become apparent, different
plans have come to the front IN all of
these states for heading off through
joint action the danger of catastrophe.
Economic distress has become so great
that it even conquers political miStrust.
Rumania, Jugoslavia and CzechoSlo-
vakia, united in the little entente"
are members of the French system of
alliances, to which Poland also belongs.
They all fear the revenge of Hungary,
which was mutilated in their favor, and
which has assured itself of Italy's sup
port and has also been favored at times
by England.
CzechOslOvakia Absent.
But Rumania and Jugoslavia came to-
gether in conference with Hungary at
Bucharest IN order TO discuss Jne re-
shaping of their commercial policies.
CzechoSlovakia, whose attitude polit-
tcally against Hungary in particular is
Sharpest, stayed away. This, however,
was due less to political reasons than to
the different economic structure of the
state
The results of the discussions, it is
true, were not very copious. 1t was
decided to avoid mutual competition in
deliveries to Western industrial coun-
tries. Somewhat more came of the fol-
lowing conference in Sinaja, where only
Rumania and Jugoslavia came together.
They drew up a plan for customs
union. But all of these things did not
affect the roots of the situation and
even at new conference the past week
in Warsaw, in which Poland also par
ticipated there was little talk of a
customs union, only cautious advances
In that direction were made Where
they lie is shown by the sharp attacks
made at all these conferences on the
"most favored nation" principal in in
ternational commercial policy.
Seek Preferential Duties.
The agrarian countries of South
eastern Europe would like to induce
Europe to accept a proposal to give
their products preferential duties
against the agrarian products of the
lands overseas. In return therefor
they would willingly admit German and
