CUNO LACKING
IN DECISION
German Publicist Says Na-
tion Demands Deeds, Not
Words to Be Saved.
FAILS TO GET THEM
Writer Is Pleased With
America’s Demand for
Open Door in East.
By MAXIMILIAN HARDEN.
Copyright, 1922, by the San Antonio Light.
Berlin, Dec. 2.—Germany demands
deeds, not words, but so far has failed
to get them.
Chancellor Cuno, in the reichstag, de-
clares that the republic waits for help
from American without whose aid eco-
nomic orders seems impossible.
Empty words! Evidently there is
• more naive feeling of hopelessness than
one of determination to restore the
' country. Cuno is neither better nor
* worse than his predecessors. He hardly
, can expect to interest foreigners who
have troubles of their own.)
t Cuno, as chancellor of the exchequer,
energetically demanded and obtained
! full indemnification of the Hamburg-
American line's war losses and in con-
sequence was made a member of the
- executive committee of the line by Bal-
lin. For the same reason he was made
a committeeman of the North German
Lloyd line. He belongs to that num-
, erous group who believes Germany was
deceived about the armistice conditions
• and that the misfortunes are due, not
to defeat, but to the treaty of Ver-
’ sailles. He wants the treaty revised.
He believes also that all reasonable
. men in the world are convinced that
• Germany cannot meet her reparation
obligations. Unfortunately, I myself,
have not observed any such feeling in
my conversations with the business men
- and politicians of great and small coun-
tries. Everywhere the feeling seems to
1 exist that Germany, by exercising pri-
: vate economy, because her industrial ma-
' chinery is intact, and she is without
any unemployment, can pay is she will
energetically re-establish her credit
abroad.
Not a Strong Cabinet.
Cuno wants to form a cabinet includ-
ing the highest intellects among the in-
■ dustrialists but he only obtained the
services of business men of medium at-
tainments. If he attempts to rule with-
out the assistance of the Social Demo-
crats, the strongest party in the cham-
ber, and controlling 100 seats, then all
‘ who see a hidden bolshevist in every
hidden Socialist will take fresh cour-
age. Of course, if he is unsuccessful
in assembling and carrying into effect
a program that will benefit the nation
the Social Democrats eventually will
triumph and they will til the masses
that the bourgeois government has
brought Germany to deepest misery.
i As in November, 1918, all blame was
laid on the imperial government, so
this December all blame has been laid
on the Socialist governments and the
reign of Cuno and his associates is
looked forward to as certain to bring
prosperity. Time will tell!
America has spoken at Lausanne
through Ambassador Child. His message
sounded like a friendly warning voice
drowning the shriks of quarreling sea-
gulls. He first proclaimed the princi-
ple of honest humanity and the prac-
/ tical. wise policy of the open door de-
manding the abandonment of secret
treaties and the giving of territorial and
economic advantages to individual states
imploring all nations to desist invad-
4 ing others’ rights in order to preserve
their own and thus furnishing a basis
. for lasting peace for the : Entire 1 orld.
America’s Demand Reasonable.
Everybody has listened to this short
Declaration more intently than to any
European minister or party leader. This
is not the language of a country which
thinks only of concessions arranged
through Admiral Chester which prevent-
ed England, after recognizing a sham
Turkish sovereignty, exploiting the Mos
sul-Caucasus oil fields. In the violent
struggle of oil against coal which now
is beginning, and which by the way also
Is a fight for culture, as it releases
innumerable poor slaves black with coal
dust, America must not abandon her
share nor allow her right to equal treat-
ment everywhere to lie doubted.
Not alone has Lausanne taught how
the petroleum of the Caucasus may af-
fect the policies of the world in Lenin’s
cold and Kemal’s hot territory, but it
has demonstrated that powerful Amer-
ca’s least word will prevent the clot ing
of the door.
Is it a new departure? America’s
traditions always have been different.
Despite changes in other governments it
seems to be dawning in Washington’s
minds that only a real democratic policy
can insure the future of the white race
and only international democracy can
overcome that Utopianism which teaches
that progress is possible without ths
stimulus of legitimate gain.
America, with 70 per cent of the
world’s gold; enormous raw materials
defends herself against foreign import*
but demands the open door for herself
and feels that the time for indifference
toward the development of other coun-
tries is past. She can help more by
fresh intelligence in reconstructing the
world than he can by her wealth and
“so she can save herself from the
Breatened rocks of overproduction. It
to a new departure.
BANK BUSINESS LARGE
Clearings Show Consistent Grow th Each
Month This Year.
Bank clearings for the month of
November 1022, announced by the
Clearing House Association Saturday,
were $28,043,700. Clearings during the
same month of 1921 were 820,642.401.
During the last week of November of
this year they were $6,248,820.
While the clearings do not give sn
accurate indication to business in gen-
eral, clearing house officials said
Saturday that in view of the fact that
dlearings this year have been consistent-
• better than they were during the
mme periods of last year, it is reason-
able to expect business to follow the
lame trend.
Her City’s Pride
Elizabeth Bayliss, 18-year-old high
school student, has entered the hall of
fame in Clarksburg, W. Va., where she
was proclaimed the most beautiful girl,
possessing all the characteristics of
Southern loveliness. “As demure, sweet
and pretty as the girls of grandma's
day,” said the Clarksburg city fathers.
Must Bring Own Smokes
Girls at Y. W. C. A. Hotel to Be Unable to Get Tobacco
at Hostelry News Stand.
By MARJORIE TAYLOR.
Copyright, 1922, by the San Antonio Light.
»i asnigton, D. U., Dec. 2.- Devotees
of "My Lady Nicotine” will not alone
have to roll their own, but they must
bring their own, should they desire to
smoke in the Grace Dodge Hotel, run
here exclusively for women, by the
Young Women's Christian Association,
Andrew J. Pollock, proprietor of the
news stand, beauty parlor and shoe shin-
ing there, won a partial victory when
the court ruled that he can not be
evicted by the hotel management. It
had complained that he "publicly dis-
played” smoking materials and that this
reflected in a discredible manner en
the hotel. The Y. W. C. A. secured
an eviction notice, but Pollock proved
before Justice Siddons that he had
not sold tobacco since last June and
the court stayed the order.
In ruling this, however, the court
offered to issue an injunction restrain-
ing Pollock from offering tobacco with-
in the sacred portals of the hotel. In-
asmuch as all of the evidence agreed
that there had been no sale since the
management ordered the cigarets cut
out the attorneys for the hotel did not
take advantage of the suggestion of the
court. ...
In his defense Pollock filed a large
number of affidavits with the court de-
signed to show that he had at all times
insisted on the utmost propriety in the
conduct and management of the con-
cessions he had leased. Incidentally,
these indicated that there was a well
built up and increasing trade in the
sale of that particular class of mnaga-
zines which cater to spicy tales of love
and adventure,
Later on, the court will decide wheth-
er Pollock violated agreements for the
other concessions which he holds and
if so, whether the Y. W. C. A. can can-
cel his lease. In the meanwhile there
will be no tobacco on sale and those
wanting to use it in any form will have
o patronize outside dealers.
Fire in Vessel’s Hold.

goia was proceeding toward the South

ing to wireless advices received here

day morning. The fire was reported
under control. The West Segoia was
bound from Houston to Havre. She
sailed Friday morning.

the Christmas Gift Incomparable /
Not the size, nor the cost is what counts, but that subtle some-
thing, that intangible yet unmistakable air of qualiy and refine-
ment, is what makes a gift so truly welcome—this it if that
marks gifts from the house of Hertzberg as being so distinctively
different from the commonplace—!
