Practical work in the service of the German nation, Dr. Luther d clared to be the predominating aim of his; program. He insisted on the efficacy of the Constitution and declared that{ "every violent, illegal blow at that Constitution will be iret as high trea- son." In matters of foreign policy the new ministry will follow directly in the steps of former Chancellor larx, supporting the Dawes plan to the limit, and working towards parti- cipation as a member in tho LeagufA of Nations when it shall have been successful in combattin a the senti- ment expressed by the Veroailles treaty giving Germany fu'l rerponsi- bility for the war. Those who are anxious th't Ger- many again attain a sound position in world affairs should be gratified at Dr. Luther's statements, especially since it was rumored that he was not in full accord with the Dawes plan. If stability is to come. Germanyv must resume her pre-wnr commercial po- sition, and the Dawes elan appears to he the best way of accomplishing this.
