BERLIN, Germany, July 11. (p)
Dr. Hans Luther, president of the
reichsbank, returned by plane from
Paris today without having obtain
ed French assistance and with no
hope of obtaining it under condi
tions acceptable to the German gov
ernment. He had sought French aid in ex
tending credit to the reichsbank.
The bank head went Into confer
ence with Chancellor Bruenlng im
mediately after his arrival at Tem
plehof airdrome and thereafter the
cabinet was called into session to
consider the drastic measures of
departing from Uie gold standard
and putting all German exports un
der government monopoly.
Heavy Withdrawals
These developments came on the
heels of the news that the reichs
bank run on foreign currencies to
day reached the record breaking
total of 100,000,000 marks (about
825,000,000) during the brief Satur
day banking hours.
The reason why the cabinet feels
obliged to consider such a sensa
tional step as putting German cur
rency and exports on what might
be termed a soviet basis is that
the reichbank's gold reserve Is so
low now as to cause a fear Mon
day's demand for foreign curren
cies would Bweep the few remain
ing gold millions out of the bank's
reserve In a few houra.
Going to Basel
Dr. Luther will stay here only
over night and tomorrow will fly

Next War Armageddon
With Civilization's Fall
Is MacDonald Warning
LONDON", July 11. (P) A dire
picture of humanity's plight In
the event of another war, was
drawn by Prime Minister Mac
Donald at a peace meeting at
tended by 10,000 in Albert Hall
today.
"The great armageddon strug
gle would come at last," said the
prime minister, "and the end
of It would not be defeat, but
the uniformity of exhaustion. Man.
kind would be almost wiped out."
The prime minister spoke on
a program which Included David
Lloyd George, the liberal leader,
and Stanley Baldwin, conserva
tive leader. Speeches were broad
cost over an International hookup
In the United States.
The early part of the meeting
was interrupted by the bursting
of several stench bombs thrown
by a wornan In the audience. As
the prime minister shortly after
wards began speaking there w"
some heckllnit and attendants
forcibly quieted one man who
shouted out something about Rus
sia. The premier declared:
'people seeking safety by arms
are like people seeking safety
under tree In a thunder storm.
They are at the point which 1s
the first to be struck when tho
storm breaks."
He said that the tlrltlah dele
gates were going to next year's
disarmament meeting at Geneva,
determined, by appeals to pledges,
to history and to common sense,
to persuade the nations to reduce
"this enormous and disgraceful
burden."
"Mankind would be exhausted
by another war and all his works
and his civilization would be ob
literated." he said. "THat Is the
end which awaits those who say
we will trust our national security
to the accumulation of arma
ments. Security rests not In arma
ments, but In preventing the
enures which hitherto have led to
actual outbreaks of war."
