CERMANY TROUBLE v i Achievements Over Post-War Obstacles Obscured by Mental State. By the Associated Press. BERLIN, April 30.—That Germany's chief handicap today is a deep pessi- mism which obscures in the popular mind the chief achievements over post- | war obstacles is the diagnosis given by Jacob Goldschmidt, executive director of the Darmstaedter & National Bank, one of Berlin's chief private financial insti- tutions. He said that the burdens placed on the loser of the World War have been 80 great that the nation is blindly star- ing at a blank wall, overlooking the breaches that have already been made in that barrier to progress. “This depression of the spirit of a great people is one of the most serious consequences of the critical year 1929, and is perhaps more worthy of atten- tion than the material changes ich the year has brought,” he says. “The hard fate of the German peaple cannot be mastered and overcome if its vigor and strength and the creative and con- structive impulses which are the ex- pression of that strength are nullified by a spirit of crippling pessimism and hopeless resignation. Optimism a Necessity. “Our people must not be deprived, on top of the great material losses to which the past year has once again given prominence, of the principal asset which it has had hitherto in the recon- struction of all that defeat had shat- tered, namely, its optimism and will to work. “From faith in ourselves and in the organic soundness of our national and economic system we must draw the energy which we need more than ever since, in the domain of foreign policy, the past year destroyed the great hopes we had placed in the transformation of the Dawes plan into a new and fun- damental contractual regulation of the relations of Germany with the other partners to that settlement.” Observing that practically no ome in Germany is really satisfled with the reparations solution embodied in the Young plan, influenced as it was by a “tendency to lose sight of all but purely material requirements,” Herr Gold- schmidt points out that there is never- theless nothing to do now but fulfill its obligations to the uttermost and then “learn to wait” for the economic reaction.” Fruitful Waiting Pol “In the life of individuals, and still more in the life of peoples,” goes on, “a policy of waiting is often more fruit- ful than continuous activity, and need in no sense imply missing the moment for action when it comes.” What Germans are constantly over- looking in their present pessimistic mood, continues the report, is Ger- many's actual progress during 1929. It was precisely during the unsettling Young plan negotiations at Paris and The Hague that the American stock market frenzy was sucking the world’s = | money into Wall Street and making it +| resolu | abnormally difficult to raise money for industry in Germany. Yet a survey of the past year, in its political and economic aspects, reveals clearly the exceptional achievements of Germany in the period of transition be- tween the Dawes and Young plans, in fighting her way through a severe crisis without any possibility of recourse to the capital market at home or abroad.

It has at last mm'runbletnmnunmmw&he normal conditions and relations of the international money market and, above all, has set Germany, with her intense demands for capital and credit, free from the dangerous competition of the unnaturally high rates for money on the New York market.” 1,947 STILLS SEIZED BY U.S. DURING MARCH 5,380 Prohibition Arrests Made in Month, Commissioner Doran Announces, By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, April 30.—Retrial of the $500,000 suit by Mme. Andree Hahn of Paris against Sir Joseph Duveen, art expert, for slandering the title of her painting, alleged to be Leonardo da Vincl's “La Belle Ferroniere,” has been postponed by agreement from May 15 . The first trial ended in & jury disagreement. The postponement and the fact that Sir Joseph is sailing today for Eng- land caused rumors that a settlement out of court had been reached, but this was denied by counsel for both parties. George W. Whiteside of counsel for Sir Joseph said the pos:gnnement was due to Sir Joseph's health, that the painf ing was a copy stopped sale of the picture to the Kansas City Art Museum for $250,000.

GENEVA, April 30.—Lord Cecil yes- terday told the League of Nation's com- mittee on arbitration and security that the British government desired that the proposed draft treaty to strengthen the means of preventing war should take into consideration existence of the Kellogg pact. The proposals of his government re- garding this type of concerted action against war, Lord Cecil announced, in- cluded the suggestion that the preamble to the treaty should contain the fol- lowing provision: “Noting that to this end (the pre- vention of war) the task of the Council APRIL 30, 1930. of the League 8f Nations and the pur- poses of the pact of Paris in insuring and conciliation might be facil- itated by undertakings assumed volun- tarily in advance by the states.” Similarly, Lord Cecil suggested that in view of the existence of the Kellogg pact, another article of the proj treaty be modified by deleting a phrase which recognizes the possibility that peaceful means of settling disputes might fail. After the British proposals had been submitted in written form general dis- cussion on the drafting of a treaty was adjourned until tomorrow.
