COMMUNIST GAINS
THE PARTIES DEFINED.
Received May 7, 10.15 a.m,
LONDON, May 6. The German elections resulted in marked progress of the extremists, with the collapse of the Centre Party and Social Democrats. The surprising Communist gains are due to the reaction against Hitlerism. The Eight demands the restoration of the monarchy and the rejection of the experts' reports. The Extreme Right desires to tear up the Versailles Treaty. It is considered that the result must ease the. international situation, but will increase communism and necessitate German concentration on, international affairs. It is expected that the disunited Central parties will reunite, but even if they succeed with the help of the Social Democrats and the German People's Party in forming a new Cabinet its life is certain to be short.-^-Sydnpf 'Sun Cable.
