UPHOLDING THE REPUBLIC. LOYALTY OF THE REICHSWEHR. Press Association—By Telegraph—Cops r right LONDON, November I. The Daily Chronicle’s Berlin correspondent says; “The first response to Herr Albert’s proclamation came from the leaders of the Democratic, Centre, and Social Democratic Parties, who conferred with Dr Stresemann upon the advisability of enrolling youthful upholders of the Republic for voluntary service. They eventually decided against the scheme. Dr Stresemann expressing complete confidence in the Reichswehr’s loyalty to the Republic. Nevertheless, the Democratic Party issued an appeal stating that conspirators were threatening the internal peace and the maintenance of constitutional conditions in Germany, and that the Republicans and Democrats would see to it that such attacks were broken. If the Government found it necessary to strengthen the army or the police for the protection of the Republic, all Democrats trained to arms would be expected to answer the call. “The Social Democrats also broadcasted an appeal declaring that those who had not recognised that the conspirators were determined to fight were hiding their heads in the sands. An army of trained Republicans must arise when the moment came “The Government has announced that it had reinforced General Reinhardt, who is responsible for countering movements bv the Bavarian Irregulars.”—A. and N.Z.
