MASON NEW YORK, May 25.—Germany is losing the Ruhr conflict. That | doesn’t mean the Germans will have to pay the full amount of the war tn- domnity ax now fixed by the allies; but the amount to be eventually de- termined will be decisively influenced by the successful pressure the French are bringing to bear in the | Ruhr.

But these are only subordinate con- siderations, ‘The real test of the Franco-German struggle concerns the currencies of the two countries, Since the French marched into the Ruhr, franes have become stronger and marks weaker, That is the real barometer of the eventual outcome, The Germans have not co-operated with their own government in trying to stabilize the mark. The industri- lists and other manipulators of ox- change in Germany have been unable, to resist the temptation ‘to mako money for themselves at the ex- pense of thelr country. The recent fall in tho mark was due to this fact alone, GERMANS DIVIDED AGAINST INVADER The unanimity of resistance within Germany has proven a myth, The German capitalists have apparently reached the conclusion that the Ruhr adventure is not going to mean tho downfall of Germany, or elso they are indifferent to such a catastrophe.

The German government, at the outset of the Ruhr struggle, counted on being able to depress the franc, as its principal weapon against France. Internationa forces have been used by the Germans to bring about a fall in French currency. There have been many efforts in this direction since last January. But the Bank of France and the French treasury de- partment have been able fo counter every blow. FRENCH PRESENT A SOLID FRONT That would have been impossible if French capitalists and industrial leaders had acted toward their gov- ernment as Gerinan financiers have behaved in Berlin. Instead, the French have held firmly to the idea that it would be unpatriotic to at- tempt to make capital out of ex- change by endangering the position of France in the Ruhr.
