QUESTION MARK i PUT ON RUSSIA, GERMANY, ITALY Economic Readjustment Is Leaving Hotbeds of Rebellion. This Is the last of a series of six articles on the European situation by Milton Bronner, European correspondent for The Times and NEA Service. BY MILTON BRONNER NEA Service Writer LONDON, Dec. 12.—Take a map of Europe. Mark the countries whose future is in doubt. You’ll have to put a question mark on every one of them. But the largest question marks will have to be placed upon Germany, Italy and Russia. Germany already has accomplished miracles. It has stabilized its currency at practically the prewar figure. It has so far made its payments of war reparations under the Dawes plan. It has cut down its unemployment to less than half a million compared to Great Britain’s million. It has resumed its old industrial ways. Its cities once more look bright and busy. But much of Germany’s future and Europe’s future for peace or war hinges upon the political contest between the monarchists -and the Republicans. United States Can Help The monarchy made the war* The republic is liquidating its aftermath. The United States, Great Britain, and especially France, can do much to help the young republic. If the way is made easier for the average German, if Germany is assisted to some measure of prosperity, the republic will be founded oh a firm basis. This is not true as yet. The monarchists sigh for the old days of place and privilege. They are backed by the rich junker class which owns the great agricultural lands. Many of the powerful industrialsist are monarchists. They have a powerful and active press. Monarchy Seeks to Return Secret organizations of army veterans or of young men who are drilling themselves, provide the weapon for a “putsch” if the time is ever ripe. On the other hand, the mass of ordinary business men, a large part of the lower middle class and over 90 per cent of the workmen are for the republic. They constitute the Democratic, the Centre and the Socialist parties. In the Reichsbanner they have an organization devoted to the defense of the republic. The republic means a continuance in the paths of peace. The monarchy probably would means dreams of revenge and new wars. Italy is the scene of one of the

greatest experiments of modem times. Mussolini and his Fascists have passed their heyday and their testing time has come. The Parliament is an echo of Mussolini’s wishes. The press is his. Political opposition in the open, at least, is over. But now Mussolini is facing not men, but economic facts. It will require all his undoubted genius to solve the pressing economic problems of his country. In the early days of Fascism, when Bolshevism and Communism were stamped out, Italian industry flourished. The lira was cheap, wages were low and exports were largely kept out. Mussolini has stabilized the lira. The working man suddenly has discovered an unbridgeable chasm between his wages and what he wants to buy. The government tried to assist him by ordering that retail prices must come down. Russia Has Troubles In Russia the leaders of the 500,000 or 1,000,000 Bolsheviks, who have imposed their will upon a people numbering 150,000,000 are seeking everywhere in the world to undermine constituted authority and constitutional government; and themselves. Those stubborn things,—economic facts and human greeds—are proving too strong for Bolshevik theories. The ruling Bolshevik group comprised of Stalin, Yaroslavsky, Astroff, Granovsky and others are p 1 wly but surely having an orientation towards the much-hated capitalist civilization. They say Stalin, to win the peasants who produce the food, has
