THE EVENING WORLD, SATURDAY, DAY, JULY 8, 1922, GERMANY WORRIES |4oA REST OF WORLD; FEAR NEW RUSSIA a In Crisis Which Is Developing Europe Turns to U. S. to Solve Problem. ALL FINANCE INVOLVED German Financial Collapse Would Hurt Alll, but Rev- olution Is Real Menace. By David Lawrence (Special Correspondent to the Eve- ning World). WASHINGTON, July 8 (Copy- tight).—Germany is the chief worry of the world. Drifting along from one crisis to-another, with her political and economic structure steadily weak- ening, there arises again the spectro of another Russia. And if Germany should go the way of Russia the effect on France and Great Britain would be an infinitely greater shock than Europe a8 a whole could stand This is the apprehensive state of mind in Washington, 3,000 miles away in physical distance, but from an econoinic viewpoint next door. Ever; branch of the Government which touches foreign trade, or is de- pendent upon European economics, is afraid of a collapse in Germany. The Treasury Department expects to fund the Allied war debt. Interest and principal are confidently counted on to help ease America’s tax burden, but while there is no official rela- tionship between German payments of war reparations and Allied payments on war debt to this country, the con- nection is all too obvious for officials here to ignore, If Germany should collapse, the Allies would promptly ask for a post- ponement of payments of their war debts. They would contend that the money they had expected to receive from Germany did not materialize and that the crisis in Germany has interfered with trade and other sources of income on which Allled Governments are dependent German; in absolute bankruptey, it is admitted here, would change the whole face of things in Europe, though, to be sure, financial ban} ruptey is feared much less than poll- tical chaos. If Germany should go, into a state of bankruptcy and turn to the Allied Governments for a re- ceivership, the viewpoint of the French, who have been insisting on fhe letter of the Versailles Treaty, might be changed.

Women's ears must be visible.

The long skirt has come back, probably to remain, and American women who went to Paris with short ones had to hurry around to the dressmakers to get long ones as soon as they saw the French mode. But with the lengthening of the skirt, the waist-line has gone up an inch or two. The prevailing colors worn in Paris are lavender and orange." When Mrs. Tremaine was asked about men's clothes, she sald she hadn't looked very careftilly at them, but added, “Englishmen's clothes are , owing to the recent William Rocke- n automobile ride.

Ward and Mrs. Willard N, Curtis, father and mother-in-law of Walter S. Ward, as material wit- nesses in the Ward murder trial should they return to the jurisdiction of the New York courts it Is reported to-day. Both were sought in vain for the Grand Jury inquiry into the kifl~ ing of Clarence Peters. The two misisng witnesses are thé only persons known to the authorities who can tell the whole story of the Ward case, Mra. Curtis spent th night of May 15-16 in Walter Ward’ home at New Rochelle, according to Mrs. Ward's testimony before the Grand Jury, She is believed to have been awake when Ward returned home about 6 o'clock in the morning after the shooting and to have heard what Ward told his wife. Mrs. Ward could not be competie@ to divulge @ confidential communices tion from her husband, but her mother could be forced to relate {t {f she could be found. Ward told hie father the whole story, according te/ Ralph Ward's testimony before the Grand Jury. The father also could be compelled to talk if he could be aubpoenaed. Additional portions of the minutes of the Grand Jury which Indicted Ward for murder are made publia to-day showing that Ward's counsel referred to his alleged ‘confession’ merely as a “statement.” Sheriff Werner of Westchester County also regarded it as such, It was through the Sheriff that the statement was put before the Grand Jury. He tela how he received it on May 22 trom Ward's lawyer, Allan R. Campbell, Ward apparently was little more than an interested spectator, Werner said Ward was accompanied to his office by his counsel, who sald they were there to surrender him, In the District Attorney's office » dlacussio took place. The minutes continue, ‘Werner's testimony thus: Q, In his presence? A. Yes, sir. ¢ Q. What was that discussion In his presence? A. The discussion was based upon this original statement which he handed me, The statement was handed over, Werner sald, with the brief announce- ment by Allen R. Campbell of counsel for the defense: ‘Here is our states ment.” Q. Did Ward deny that was his statement? A. He didn’t affirm-or deny it. Q. And he heard the statement and assented to It by his silence? A’ I assume he heard it. Questioned by the jury, W rnex said Ward did not sign the statement. He was ‘asked if it was not custom~ ary for a signature to be placed at the bottom of a confession, “Tt Isn't a confession, it is a state« ment," he>replied, It was learned yesterday that an Investigation of the alleged blackmall plot may be sited by the June Grand Jury. ee 70 HORSES STAMPEDE; 5 KILLED.
