Fate Of Europe Turns On German Elections Sunday Repudiation of Strettneman Government and Triumph of Nationalist* Would Plunge Germany Again Into Finan cial Chaos and Might Provoke Actual Hostilities H> FRANK H. KIMONDS Copyright, 1924 by McClure Newspaper Syndicate Washington, May 3.?It would be difficult in the extreme to exaggerate the importance and the contribution of the latest speech of the British Prime Minister. It meets and should finally de- [ molish all lingering suspicion in France that Ramsay MacDon ald has any thought of seeking the isolation of the French or anything but the restoration of the Anglo-French friendship and co-operation which per ished as a consequence of the joint efforts of Lloyd George and Viscount Curzon. On the other hand It very neatly avoids supplying ammunition to the German Nationalists In the forth coming election. Taken in connection with the as surances sent to Paris In recent days. Indicating the British Prime Min ister'* readiness to Join with France] in energetic action If Germany again defaulted wilfully, after the Dawes | plan had been adopted, this speech | ^facDonald to his Welsh consti tuents constitutes a very materialj Contribution toward the accomoda tion of British and French policies. Despite the superficial and even the fundamental differences In British -and French outlooks. It is-fair to conclude that European events are still moving toward solution, or atr| least toward adjustment. * The rsal black spot on the horizon remains the German election, which -will take place on Sunday. This ?lection has now resolved itself Into a "solemn referendum" upon the Dawes Plan. The German Govern ment has accepted the plan as a basis of negotation and Stressemann has quite frankly accepted battle on that issue. If he is beaten the de feat will be a clear and final evi dence to the world that Germany la In the hands of those who oppose all fair settlement and seek to restore the old order in Germany. The victory for the Nationalist, group, the Pan-German party, whose ; flaming manifestoes are now a mat-' ter of world comment, would end all hope of immediate adjustment. Whether we fhould then have to face the possibility of new hostili ties or not might foe a matter of opinion, although belief in such con sequences is not lacking in Europe, but It Is morally certain that a new economic smash in Germany would foltow^jfilckly, that the rentenmark would collapse like the old mark and financial and currency chaos would ensure. or course n must bo obvious whyTl the Nationalists are making; this1 final stand. They perceive quite ] clearly that If Germany does accept; the Dawes plan and It Is actually tried out, the restoration of order, Industrial prosperity and Inter- I national cooperation will steadily diminish their chances of triumph.' They care little or nothing about ( their country's real interests, llko all the other factions In Germany alnce the War, they are concerned mainly and even exclusively with , their own fortunes. There Is, patently, very grave danger that the Pan-German move ment will be successful. When I was In Europe a month ago that success was expected In many quarters. If It does succeed unmistakably, there will almost certainly be a similar triumph of the extremists In France, which votes one week aft<er Ger many. Then two new governments freshly come from the people and led by men recently committed to extreme courses will confront each other. That Is the danger Ramsay MacDonald has always foreseen and that Is the explanation of his very cautious line. If Germany, by reason of the tri umph of the Nationalists, now re jects the Dawes report, then the al ternative for the British will bo either to support France against Germany or else to leave France with free hands to act as she may deem necessary, supported, as she would be by Belgium, and In event of hostilities by Poland and perhaps by ?secho-81ovakia.

MacDonald's declaration that Iso j lation is the last thing he seeks for l France Is evidently a warning to | those German Nationalists who have been preaching that the break be tween Prarfce and Britain is abso lute and that the hour has come when Germany can resist France not only deprived of British aid but suffering from the moral handicap' of British disapproval. Although he balanced this assertion with a plea for a fair chance'for Germany, the fair chance was comprehended in the acceptance of the Dawes re port upon which the Pan-Germans have declared war. At the moment, it Is plain that the European situation is more favor able, so far as Allied co-operation and Allied moderation are concern ed, than at any moment since the close of the war. The Dawes re port gives to the Allied claim against Germany an economic foun dation, where moral and legal war rant have always been present. Ger man rejection now will not be based upon any claim that the sums de manded are unreasonable and be yond German capacity. The Issue Is between payment and not payment or wnat Ik now universally regarded as possible. I Rejection of the Dawes plan by Germany, in its Sunday election, should quite obviously restore the' Allied front, because it will be the rejection of terms accepted by all the Allies. It will be a quick de monstration of the justice of the' French argument that Germany has: never meant to pay and that all her: course has been directed by those' who seek escape from all repara-j tlons. In all human probability,! too. that rejection will mean the I ruin of Germany as a modern state, for it will Insure Immediate eco-i nomic collapse and probably invas-' j Ion and consequent devastation, if war follows. That tho whole fabric of European civilization may be endangered is also quite patent. Therefore It Is not too much to say that the fate of | Europe in a real sense turns upon! the Sunday election in Germany.
