The government is less worried over its stability to keep the Bavarian sit- vation stabilized than what is likely to happen within the remainder of un- occupied Germany, where its decree of military law is presumed to be suf- ficlently elastic to meet any emer- gency. The chancellor is expected to go be- fore the reichstag Tuesday with an explicit statement of the government’'s policies regarding the Ruhr and the Rhineland and the resumption of reparation negotiations although it is not yet in possession of formal noti- fication from the creditor powers to the effect that they are prepared to reopen the discussion, LANDS ON AUTO .TO!‘ Motorcyclist is Catapulted to Cover.
