THE MORXIXG OREGOXIAX. MOXTJAY. JUXE 27, 1921 GOLD fSISTEffCE BLAMED FOR CRISIS Reparations Pay lnjures France, Says Harden. FOREIGN EXCHANGE HIT THE MAKER OF THE "JACKASS" SPEECH RETURNS TO U. S. Supreme Council Declared to Have Been Warned Problem Was Graves Ever in World. BT MAXIMILIA.V HARDEN. Germany's Foremost Publicist. (Copyright, llf-'l. by The Oregonian.) BERLIN", June 26. (Special by wireless.) And so the economic con sequences of the peace have begun. France demanded her reparations In gold, and the very first payment has set the financial world by the ears, t rance rejected what we could give from our own store. She de manded that which we did not have, gold. To meet her demands It became nec essary for Germany to buy American dollars, the only international money standard today, and having the equal value of gold throughout the world. The demand for dollars sent them to a higher premium. Allied moneys dropped in conse cuence. and thus we have the situa tion that what was gained from Germany- was lost in the purchasing power of the franc. England, re ceiving but little of the money, suf fered in the monetary decline. Warning Are Recalled. And yet. what else could be ex pected? The allied supreme counci was warned time and time again that the demands for huge reparations sums would upset the economic world. Under the pressure of France the council went . ahead with its stnseless demands, and now it be gins to look as if the problem would rave to be reopened and some new xnethod of payments devised. I endeavored to point out at the time the reparations question was under discussion in London that It was not merely a matter of bargain between two or three countries. laid very plainly that it was the j-reatest problem the clvllUed world cad ever faced. Labor Offer la Cited. We offerd France the manual labor of thousands of German work- I'.en to rebuild northern France. Here was something tangible, some thing creative. But France refused fc'he said it might result in cole niza tion and that the Inhabitants of the regions devastated by the war might r.ot like the presence of so many of their late enemy. We offered machines and technical equipment and implements, but we were told this was impossible. "Le Boche payera!" (The German must pay!) Economic CrlMla la Noted. Well, we pay and the first ronse quence is an economic crisis In France. The surrender of our ships in England brought down the price if tonnage everywhere, until rhips, priceless three years ago, are being allowed to rust in many a "bone vard." Yet we still build ships to be surrendered to the allies, while the allied shipyards are at a standstill. We offer coal to France; and at a figure that England cannot meet rven if her mines were in operation. - i. we cont'rue to offer this coal a, a price below the cost of production In England, what becomes of John Bull's export trade In the future? Germany could continue t-j pay France in American dollars and per laps the world would not be so up set, if America would buy a sufficient quantity of German goods. But America will not buy. She :s the enly country capable of paying for merchandise in standard gold money. She could help Germany's paying capacity, but the American congress is working with a will to shut out Kll foreign-made goods by tne erec t'on of a higher protective tariff wall. German Imports Opposed The allied countries are continuing to oppose the importation of large i quantities of German dye stuffs and manufactured goods, because they tay they do not want to imperil their uwn Industries. The solution, then, has not been as simple as Lloyd George and M. Rriand seemed .o think. My predic tion that no mechanical' means could l e conjectured to make It so has been smnly fulfilled. Meanwhile, what are the prospects ci a Franco-German approachment? TerhaDS a wave of sanity is sweep lr.g over Europe after all. Perhaps it will take something of an economic catastrophe in France before it can be realized. Perhaps M. Loucheur, who had much to do with the pre paration of the treaty, realised what the economic consequences o' Ger many being compelled to pay in gold would be, when he and Herr'Rath enau held their recent conference at Weisbaden. . In any event, the responsible offl tials of the two governments are getting close together. I have won dered if the Wirth government might -succeed in allaying some of the fears and suspicions of France. fr I v " r ' ' - f v. ' ' A v Photo by Underwood. A rIor-up photo of Admiral William 8.

The hearty wel come given Crown Prince Hirohito In England and France was widely com mented on by the Japanese press and has made a profound Impression on the people, who are convinced that the European tour Is a splendid education for the future ruler.

It is J pointed out that this peace move is the most liberal made thus far In view of- the- fact that no conditions are imposed for the meeting The Sunday Times refers to the proposal as the "last offer the gov ernment can make to the Sinn Fein' and adds: "It Is a political potentiality and Mr. De valera may refuse to accept. In that case the alternative of the government is clear. The resources of the British empire to enforce peace are not exhausted." The Sunday Observer says the pre miers letter is a counterpart and an explanation of the cabinet's decision to increase the purely military pres sure on the Sinn Fein. "But," it adds, "full recourse to re pressive measures will not be had until or unless the Sinn Fein leaders decline the offered conference." AUXILIARY INSPECTOR SLAIN SOCIALISTS Officer Shot While Dining; Label of "Spy" Attached to Body. SEATTLE, Wash.. June 2fi. fSne- cial.) Whether the recent conference agreement of the eastern railroads to Join with the western lines in mak ing new and lower through rates be tween Pacific coast points and points east or Chicago will bring about downward revision in lumber and shingle rates. Is a Question that Pa-. ciric northwest lumbermen are eager to have answered. Their eagerness is shared by railroad traffic officials in Seattle. Meager advices that have reached Seattle concerning the conference agreement leave the local traffic of ficials of the transcontinental lines, as well as the lumbermen uninformed. but all are more or less hopeful that forest products will share in the rate reductions. Traffic officials have asked their chiefs for definite infor mation and are expecting to get a line on the situation within the next few uays. Rate Cuts Rumored.

Chief of Police Catlin said that while the matter is yet a mystery, the po lice have found evidence that may clear up the situation by tomorrow. It will take a little time, he says, to run down clews. John Donovan, a transient, picked up a coat on the Albany Prldge at 5:15 last night. From a pocket pro truded a piece of paper apparently placed to attract attention. On this paper was a note in which the writer bade good-bye to the world, said he was tired of life , and that "you will find me in the bottom of the river." The note was unsigned but the name of A.

Seized with what Morris Hillquit described as a "homicidal mania," the socialist na tional convention today killed three resolutions which sought to define "dictatorship by the proletariat" as a , part of the socialist policy, and then i overwhelmed two others which as-1 sorted the dictatorship is not now an ! issue.

They branded it as linked in American minds with the red ter ror in Russia, and declared it was useless to fix a policy which never wculd be called into play unless, in some distant future, a socialist revo lution occurs. Terror Declared Needed. King declared "the terror is In separable from dictatorship of the proletariat. You have got to have the terror to put it over." J. Louis Engdahl and William F. Krirse. left wing communists from Chicago, offered two resolutions, as serting the rights of the working classes to set up a dictatorship to insure the success of a socialist revo lution and the duty "not to permit anything to stand in the way of their being the ruling class." One resolu tion received only four votes and the second eight. Hillquit offered a substitute which defined the dictatorship as the "po litical rule of the working class in the period of transition from the capitalist system to the socialist ordei1." Hillquit Plan Defeated. The Hillquit plan was defeated. IS to 20. J. Richman of Washington said the spectacle of "an insignificant bunch of 10.000 socialists talking about the dictatorship of the proletariat is silly," and offered a counter resolu tion which declared: "We do not con sider the question of sufficient im portance at this time to go on rec ord for or against it." His was the only vote cast for the plan. King offered a motion declaring "the movement in the United States is not sufficiently advanced at this time to make a decision." He got two votes. Communlata Are Attacked. The fight was enlivened when Berger attacked the communists within the party. The communists issued circulars in Milwaukee last April advising the workers not to vote because the revo lution was coming May 1." he said. "And on May 1 it rained. so tney postponed their revolution to May 6, and on May .6 a policeman arrested two of them for throwing handbills on the street in violation of a city ordinance, and the revolution never has taken place. Engdahl and Kruse. tne exponents of communism, do not belong to the proletariat. They are in the 'sal ariat.' living off the money received from t-he socialist" party." "As for the communists. Engdani said in his reply, we win tignt ior our rights; we will fight for worklng nla.o rule: we will fight for the free dom of our prisoners, but we will I not fight for them as 100 per cent Americans. We will fight for them only under the red flag of Interna tional socialism. TIE FAVORITE BRUNSWICK ..
