the experts believed the decree an ex-
cellent measure and that 1t shows a
desire on the part of the chancellor to
do everything possible to meet the sit
uation Some however, regard both
the speech and the decree as an effort
to impress the experts here. These said
the wage slashes and relief for industry
from certain taxes were threat that
unless reparations payments are abol-
ished Germany will food the world with

The DEGREES relating to the wearing
OF uniforms and making inflammatory

the greatest barrier between the two
countries.

was reported, have presented care
