FOLLOW THE MARK
Waahington, D. C., Dec. 26.—Possi
bility of ’’gravest event! before the
end of the winter" in continental Eu
rope unlcaa the allied government!
"act with an economic wiiidom, pru
dence and fornight hitherto foreign
to their policy" i! aeen by Senator
McCormick of Illinois who has just
returned from a trip through Europe
Senator McCormick in a statement
issued last night indicated that hil
survey of the European situation had
,ionvincc<| him that the nations of Eu
rope must solve their own problems,
for tho definite and final settlement
of the total sum of reparations which
Germany shall pay and can pay,” he
said, “if they cannot agree ai
themselves mid with hankers an
vestors upon a plan which will stab
ilise German currency, we maj
pect the franc and the lira to start
down the declivity in pursuit of ths
mark, the crown and the ruble.”
Three general propositions which
ought to be included in n new repara
tions settlement were outlined by ths
Senator ns:
Priority of payments for the re
construction of the mins of northern
France.
Extension of a moratorium to Ger
many for several -years, conditional
upon an adequately secured bankers
loan to stabilize the mark to bal
ance the current German budget and
to contribute to French reconstruc
tion this year.
The prompt withdrawn! of "the
barbarous or semi-barbarous Moham
medan troops from the Rhine and the
progressive withdrawal of other
troops as the terms of the morato.
JHR reparations agreement aro
fulfilled by Germany.
"More important to the rehabilita
tion cf Europe than any aeon Terence
than any agreement helwvsu states
men and financiers can be,’ he added
"is the abolishment of the spirit of
hate which animates governments and
people. Unless the people are moved
by a Christian will to pence and by
Christian comity there can be no real
peace in Europe."
