 Asked whether Germany and Austria would go ahead with their customs "Anschluss," or union-a project which has aroused the re- lent1ess antagOnism of France-~Dr Bruening replied:
 "If the verdict of the Hague court now considering the legality of our plan is favorable, the world will realize that Germany has nearer q solution. Having already declared Germany's. readiness to negotiate with other powers for similar customs unions We would then expect other governments to propose a constructive solution"
 The chancellor deprecated the Idea Germany was tossing the pocket battleship"--the 10000 ton cruiser Deutschland which has aroused concern among admiral ties around the world-into tbc arena of international debate. lie indicated a conciliatory German naval policy.
 | Germany. at q slow pace strictly within the provisions of the treaties Is gradually replacing obsolete war ships, 26 and 30 years old" he said. Our financial situation prevents replacing them more rapidly. | I recalled that Wilhelm Groencr. defense minister, in the reichstag proposed laying the keels of slx new "pocket battleships" by 1888 and two others by 1940. Chancellor Bruening. In significant response, said:
 "The reichstag merely desired to cease the eternal haggling over these shpis but the government of the Reich I may Say does not feel they found any dates for the con- struction of new naval units"
 The chancellor touched briefly on the vital subject of Germanys separations payments.
 'The future of reparations, he said, depends on the United States. We would be impractical if we formed our opinion only from the German viewpoint.
 | However, we expect decisive de- velopments before congress con venes in Washington in December" In response to a query, Dr Bru- ening praised the report of the in- ternational bankers committee headed by Albert II. Wiggin, of New York. which met recently at Basic and recommended reduction of separations payments.
 The WigBin report was good" he said. Tt was clear, but 1t had been circumscribed on some impor- tant problems"
 The chancellor said Germany planned a federal system of bank supervision similar to the system in the United States. .He denied. however, that this meant "even a partial eurn to state capitalism"
 "The impending creation of q systme of federal bank supervi- sion." he said. "may not be regard ed in this light, but will be de- signed merely to prevent past hum ders. It will not go beyond the methods in the United States for supervision of banks"
 | Chancellor Bruening had talked for m hour. He rose and in con- cluding remarked that greater ob- jectivity in Interpreting the Ger man situation was essential.
 We must recognize our difficult ties," he said, but not exaggerate them.
 Every responsible leader in | Germany ought to have a personal sense of responsibility when de- scribing Germany's perplexities. We should, I think. compare them with other countries. And this" he smiled. "is net always done."

New economic as well as po- litical tranquility is essential for this purpose, but l am convinced that the fulfilment of this need is possible. Germany, I may say, will contribute Its utmost to that end.
 "If the people understand the causes of the crisis, they will go far toward overcoming 1t. But they must realize that we are immersed not only in a crisis in business but 8 crisis of confidence in economic stability"
 The chancellor sat back in his chair. We were talking in his aus tere bachelor apartments two plain rooms economically furnished which are his home. The nations leader who has brought Germany through series of crises in the past year practices the economy he breaches. He lives far less pre- tentiously than many of the re- public's lesser men.
 He talked without restraint on many subjects during an hours in- terview, divuIging his impressions of the path which the great inter national economic and political problems besetting the world are likely to pursue. He said:
 "Our measures to surmount these obstacles will consist of fur ther economies, especially in the finances of the German individual states and communes, and the bal ancing of their budgets. The Reichs budget generally is in or derly shape. However, despite economies in unemployment insur- ance payments, we are mourning a rise in expenditures due to in- creased unemployment.
 "There may be 100000 unem- .ployment in Germany next winter, although l am not sure. This Is estimated on the presumption that the unemployment curve in the coming winter compared with this summer will rise as 1t did in the past two years"
 The chancellor, seated at a ta- ble opposite the correspondent, conveyed the impression of out ward placidity. However. this yelled a high-strung vibrant per- sonality. His attentive hospitality quickly places visitor at ease, but his personality also illumin- ates the unpopularity of his gov- ernment in Germany.
 His tightly drawn lips and pal lid complexion seemed to typify him as the iron disciplinarian--- perhaps a relic of his experience commanding a machinegun com pany on the western front in the World war. Nevertheless, from the outset close contact with the chan cellor convinces the listener to his terse sentences that the man pos

 Berlin, Aug 26 = (UP)-Chan- cellor Heinrich Bruening voiced a spirited appeal to-day for inter- national cooperation to check the downward trend of prices as the "only solution" to the worlds eco- homie ills.
 The chancellor, scholarly, aes- thetic, unfinching, looked with confidence on the future. He said the coming winter would be trying, but was optimistic in an exclusive interview with the United Press in which he pleaded for concerted action among the nations.
 q am optimistic" Dr Bruening said, because the German finan- cial crisis recently revealed that the German people have self-con- of cool-headedness. This, l think, is reassuring for the impending ordeal this winter"
 despite the worlds depression, he ward. He faced facts, however, IItdL IL WILL Dc tlic est winter for Germany in a. cen tury."
 "Even in the face of such a win- ter" he added, "I am not pessi- mistic as far as Germany Is con- cerned."
 He admitted that the world eco- homie crisis was not ended, and that 1t might even assume greater lx.,A f.. this to disturb his optimism, tenn pered with stern realization of the problems facing Germany and the world.
 believe the only solution," Chancellor Bruening said, "is the closest possible international CO., operation. aimed at checking the downward trend of prices.
 "The purchasing power of Ger many and Europe Is sinking. Mar kets are shrinking. As a result, a healthy price level for foreign pro- ducts cannot be maintained.
 This development may contin- ue, but it must lead to worldwide restriction of production if 1t does. The longer this process lasts, the harder the remedy. It is impera- tive that economically weakened countries be enabled to buy again."
 His firm mouth, unsmiling, closed over teeth clenching the inevitable cigar. He smokes 20 a day. The "iron chancellor" paused a moment, then said:
 "There may be as many as r. 100000 persons out of work next winter in Germany. We must give them work and raise prices so we cap buy abroad.

REWORD|NG ASKED
FOR SCHOOL ITEM
Burroughs Body Desires New
Junior High Design to Be
Like Paul.

The Burroughs Citizens Association
last night passed resolution to ask
the House Committee on District APP
preparations and the District Board of
Education to reword the section of the
appropriation bill pertaining to erection
of the William Howard Taft Junior
High School, to the effect that it would
be modelled along the lines of the new
Paul Junior High School, rather than
as the Mcfarland Junior High School,
at Iowa avenue and Varnum street,
which they designated as factory like"
IL appearance.
The school is to be built at Eight
zenith and Perry streets northeast, near
the present Burroughs School. An ap-
preparation of 100000 is included in
the bill The association went on rec
ord as opposed to the plain appearance
of the mcfarland School and favoring
the ornamental appearance of the
Paul School.
QUESTIONABLE Is Recalled.
The resolution came as an aftermath
of the reply of Kenneth P. Armstrong,
president of the Burroughs body, ito a
QUESTIONABLE sent out by the Fedora
ton of Citizens Associations asking
that each association submit state
ment showing the needs of its commu-
nifty Mr. Armstrong; recommendation
was based largely on the new Taft Junior
High School.
Copies of the resolution were sent to
all organizations interested in the build
ing of the school, including the Fine
Arts Commission, municipal architect
and others.
DR.. George C. Havenner, president of
the Federation of Citizens Associations,
spoke at the meeting, tracing the growth
of the Citizens Association movement
in the District from the time the bill
was passed abolishing suffrage in the
District in 1874. He told of the accom-
plishments of the associations since
they have been banded together under
the federation, citing the Improvements
in which they were instrumental in 1890
Chest Speaker Heard.
A representative of the Community
Chest spoke at the meeting, telling of
the aims and purposes of the Chest
movement.
The association voted to indorse the
action of the conference of Northeast
Suburban Citizens Associations in ask
ing that the library appropriation be
enlarged so that the branch library at
Woodbridge might be kept open the same
hours as other libraries in the system
instead of occasionally" as at present.
A discussion of the Borland law re-
garding the special assessment of prop
erty in the District for street paving
and Improvements resulted in move to
oppose any attempt to continue the as
sessmentS under the old law, because of
the fact that much of it has been ren-
dered null and void by decisions of Che
courts.
