1 12 'REPUBLIC DEFENSE ACT * VAIN, DECLARES HARDEN -German Government Compromises With Improper Public Held Unsafe While Monarchists and Spirit Continue. [The knife of an assassin has not stilléd the trenchant pen of Maximilian Hhrden, Germany's Ereat editor and publicist. whose life was atfempted last Monday night outside his Jittle villa in the Grunewald section of Berlin. This is his first dispatch received in this country since the attack.] BY MAXIMILIAN HARDEY, Germany's Foremost Publicist. By Cable to The Star. BERLIN. July 8.—Four years after the fainting fit which legend politely calls a “revolution” the Germhn government introduces a bill in the reichstag entitled “A bill for the pro- tection of the republic.” The title alone implies its own harsh criticism. _If, after four years, it is necessary to protect the re- public by a special law, the republic heretofore must have been unpro- tected, threatened and endangered. Unless states are protected by B constitution and a penal code they stand on a rotten foundation. Re- experiences show this to with Germany. Those over the government thought th: would make thei usurpation more palatable by leni ency toward those who were over- thrown. They allowed the princes who were wise enough not to flee from Ger- mhny to remain at Potsda in Silesia, Schleswig and They allowed these princ court ceremonies. They aliowed the kaiser's picture to. remain in public took nexations and by the presence of black troops on our soil. These statements daily have been hammered into millions of German minds by inumerable papers and magazinds. A whole flock of new papers have sprung up, wonderfully on the glorification of kaiserism, militarism and monarchism. They hve conducted an anti-semitic campalgn, and have agitated pre- paredness for revenge. Their thrift has come largely from advertising by nationalist -businessmen. Many of these publications are directed by former officers, mostly naval, knd they have been propagated by let- ters of recommendation from the Hohenzollern princes. Republic Too Tolerant. The republican government has tolerated all of this, "and even (In the reparations, Silesian, Sarre 'basin, Rhineland and other disputes) has aceused the victors of breaking their word, not realizing that such declara- tions would only bolster up the i tional feeling. From this bellef that outside Germany only scoundrels 1iv scoundrels “who wish to ruin Ger- many and started a-war against the innocent German empire for that pur- pose,” it is a short step to a fanatical persecution of all who do not join in the propaganda for revenge, but who desire Germany's spiritual regenera- tion and hope to see the day when Germany will take her place with the other nations striving for a purer in- ternational morality. . The bill for the protection of the re- public provides stern punishment, even death and to confiscation of for- tunes, and partly reasonable, but largely brutal measures to prevent the murder wave from growing.

Masses Too Credulous. The masses readily believe that their illness is the result of a fever. Given such ignorance, one can readily Imagine the effect on the unpolitical ; German mind of the following series of declarations since the v ) 1. We were not defeated in the war, but betiived by the socialist democrats, the Jews and the pacifists, on_the eve of triumph. 2. We were cheated of our promised rights by a faithless enemy. 3. Since then we have been insult- ed, robbed, dishonored by breaches of the treaty, by the extortions of the reparations commission, an LONDON AND ROME - HOLD VAIN PARLEY inglorious, The center of the “consul organiza- tion,” founded by former Capt. Ehr- hardt, is in Munich. It has thousands of active members everywhere. It issues orders “to suppress by any means every movement based on in- ternationalism.” That means all who desire an understanding among peo- ples and who don't put German self- ish ambitions above everything else. The members of the “consul organiza- tion” are instructed never to argue with such elements, but to use their weapons unhesitatingly urged further to invent electricity, and to select partic resolute men for special duties.” Secret Socleties Powerful. Hundreds of such secret societies exist with plenty of money, powerful influence, and sufficient weapons for civil war, and thousands support them for their “patriotic motives.” the blunders of the victors have been too many to hope for the speedy heal- ing of a government whose next task will be to notify creditors that it cannot pay its debts. The govern- ment's real power lies in the indus- trial workers, but their agitation for ! higher wages scares the bourgeoisie into nationalism. A clear but unthreatening declara- tion from the great powers might help | the situation in Germany. be to the effect that: “Every help will be accorded to a democratic, peaceful Germany, but there will he no intercourse with a Germany returned to monarchism.” An international congress of unofi- cial liberal leaders should follow this declaration. The German republic, however, will be safe when it needs no other protec- tion than its constitution and a prop- er public spirit. (Copyright, 1922.) FRENCH FORESEE SOVIET COLLAPSE It should Italy and Britain Fail to Agree on Joint Policy in Mediterranean. BY HIRAM K. MODERWELL. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1922, LONDON, July 8.—Another of the long series of efforts to settle Euro- pean differences ended unsatisfacto- rily late Friday, when Foreign Min- ister Carlo Schanzer and the Italian delegates completed their conversa- tions with the British government. Italy is seeking to increase her pres- tige, which has been suffering rela- tively to that of France, and to as- sure herself of the raw material on which her life depends. Britain wishes to bind Italy firmly to her pol- icy of continental peace. Among the details discussed were the rectification of the Tripoli-Egypt frontier. the extension of the Itallan colony of Jubaland, near Abyssinia. and Italian control of the “Cenacu- lum.” or lezendary scene in Palestine of Christ's last supper. The principal Italian demand is for support for the Ttalian economic zone in Anatolia, provisionally granted under the tri- partite agreement and from which Italy hoped to obtain large supplies of coal and-other raw stuffs. This Avas part of the treaty of Sevres which is now regarded as dead. Italy wishes to maintain her privi- leges and also have a free hand in ob- taining a permanent settlement con- cerning the eastern Mediterranean islands with Greece, Great Britain’s friend.

By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News Copsright, 1922, PARIS, France, July 8.—The war between the church and state in Rus- sia, as illustrated by the arrest and imprisonment of Patriarch Tikhon, is interpreted in France to mean the ar- rival of a new phase in the bolshevist revolution, “Heretofore Lenin and Trotsk. have never bothered about religion,’ said an authority on Slav affajrs to the writer today, “because they de- spised the orthodox church. financial necessity that caused them to take this attitude. They must have money. After exhausting every resource in Russia, they still see the altar vessels and the accumulated treasure of centuries in the hands of the church, Why not confiscate them? The red army will suppress any possible resistance on the part of the peasants. Such calculations look plausible on the face of thIng: but they may prove false in practice. History has shown that the church L: strongest when under persecu- tion.” The confiscation of ikons and the sale of oil concessions mean the same thing to the French, namely, the bankruptcy of bolshevism, and financial collapse, they say, is alwavs followed by political collaps The whole ambition of the Russian revo- lution, therefore, can be nothing larly | This | poison has penetrated too deep, and | LU U It is| concessions is Italian support for the British-Turkish policy, which aims to Eet Greece out of the present Turco- Greek mess with the minimum loss of dignity or territory.
