Debt Remission Impossible. Since the war her people have been employed and are prosperous. failure to tax herself like other na- tions is indefensible. French statesmen know the nece sity, but lack the courage to enlighten the people and leave them in posse sion of the facts. In the present cir- cumstances remission of the French debt is impossible. Germany's admi sion to the league of nations will be the first gleam of the sun in the dark sky of Europe. It may save German too, from an internal cadastrophe threatened by the monarchist move- ment in Bavaria. which menaces the existence of the republic. The su- preme council. instead of supporting the republic, has done its utmost to diseredit it. This attitude must change, or the republic will collapse between the military reaction on the one hand and anarchism and bol- shevism @n the other. ¢ (Copyright, 1922.) BUILDING IN BERLIN BLOCKING STREETS City Loses :Spotless’ Record .as Skyline Is Being Rapidly Changed. By the Associated Press. BERLIN, July 29—Berlin's chang- ing skyline is one of the several out- ward manifestations which are pro- voking eomment by post-war visitors who vividly recall the city's pre-war appearance, both with respect to the cleanliness of streets and the uniform _height of buildings. This period of transition is having the effect of creating among the capi- stal’s inhabitants a sort of grouch, due to the dishevelled conditions of many of the main thoroughfares. and also a specles of envy with which the ighfalutin” tourists are viewed by the” natives. The natives seem to feel that they are not only being crowded out but obliged to pay more for such lodgings as are avallable on socount of the fascination which the high offers of foreigners seem to have for Berlin landlords. Dearth of Offices, Too. The prevailing housing shortage aiso is reflected in the dearth of office ‘ accommodations, and the capital’s once rigid building laws prescribing the helghts of buildings are now be- ing given more liberal interpretation. As a result there is scarcely a street in the central section of the metropo- ‘lis which is not cluttered up by flolding or whose side- are not barred to ”deinflln . The municipality is not opposing ap- lications for permits for ded on all sorts of buildings, pri- because the remodelling pro- ded employment ended. | i I world is suffer Her | { principality of Monaco by the claims {of George Frederic maldl, wh calls himxelf the Moxt Noble Marqu ecrge Frodetick Grimaldl, that he | ix the succensor (e Prince Al- line | of the Venstians, the former b who stylew himself the elev | quix, dixputex the succession of { Louls, xon of Prince Albert. gty JOINT VIEWPOIN | - NEEDOF EUROPE Crossed Policies of Paris and London Halts Stabilization. iPREMIERS ARE BLAMED French Publisher Believes Lloyd | George Will Vary His Plans to Accord With Poincare.

And when that day comes the United States can say that order has re- turned to European affairs and it can venture in without risk. That, of course, s only ordinary common sense, but it is not negligi- ble because common Sense has gained more victories than subtlety.

PARIS, July 29.—Charles Deville ‘Wells, the “man who broke the bank of Monte Carlo,” and hero of the celebrated song heard wherever the English language was spoken in_the early nineties, died in Paris on June 22, in such abject poverty that his death was passed unnoticed until now, more than a month afterward. He was 81 years old. Wells, after a record run of luck at Monte Carlo, soon became a bank- rupt. He had many other vicissitudes, including several terms In jails and penitentiaries in England and France, for obtaining money under false pre- tenses. He used to blossom out with many get-rich-quick schemes. One of them was a system whereby he claimed any roulette wheel might be beaten by & player with a sufficient bamk roll.
