pleaded guilty to a charge of murder Alex Kcls, Lodi butcher, may yet face what ainoun'i to a trial. It. may even go as far as empanelling a jury to pass on his ease. Officers, it was learned tonight, have serious doubts as to whether tile whole story of the murder of a still unidentified stranger, to which Kels has confessed, has been told. These doubls involve two points: First, is the question, of whether Kels is sane.

Second, members of the prosecution have informally admitted, is a doubt as to wether he told the whole truth in his confession. Committee aNmed to Speed Up Insurance BERKELEY, Oct. 6.

VON WIEGANP. Universal Service Staff Corrc-SMnclcnt. (SiMH-lal Cable Despatch.) BERLIN. Oct.

6. Germany Is an economic and financial marl house and politically is In a brainstorm. More than half the German people ate almost mad from fears of hunger, cold and the lack of ojoth-ing for the rapidly approaching winter. Others seem politically and economically unsound In that through selfishness or ignorance they are contributing to the ruin and downfall of all. One feels that one is In a nation that Is very near its death throes.

These were my first impressions of Germany on my return after a seven weeks visit in America. There have been appalling changes for the. worse, economically and politically, in those few weeks. Misery cries from hundreds of holes in shoes and clothing on the ragged figures stalking the streets. Beggars have multiplied to an almost unbelievable number in Berlin.

PARLIAMENT SYSTEM END PREDICTED SOON. The parliamentary government system, which came in the republic is on it last legs. Dr. Stresemann is making a last, desperate effort to save the coumtry from civil or military dictatorship to tUe exclusion of parliament, a direction in which Germany seems to be in evitably driving. Stresemann started a strong drive at the vast and complex trusts which have been exploiting the Gernian' people in his speech this afternoon in the Reichstag presenting; the new cabinet.

Stresemann declared tha time had come for government intervention against the monopolies created by trusts, that competition in tade was as vital to the German economic life as the creation of syndicates and combines for the purpose of steadily rising prices. CRISIS BRIDGKD FOR TIME BELVG. The acute crisis of the last few days was temporarily bridged by the success of Chancellor Stresemann in reestablishing substantial ly the same cabinet as before, representing a fragile coalition of the moderate parties in the reichstag. The key man of the cabinet is Dr. Koeth, the new minister of economics and a former colonel In the regular army who achieved distinction in bringing the German army back to civilian occupation, as Commissioner of Demobilization.

Ilerr Helferding, the socialist minister of finance of but a few weeks, who failed in trying to put through his socialist financial theories, is replaced by Luther, the former food minister. Luther is an ex-burgomaster of Essen. This cabinet is considered the last hope of saving Germany from a dictatorship of the extremists. Stresemann struck no constructive note in his speech in the reichstag today. On Monday the government will ask and undpubtedly will obtain a vote of confidence.

At the same time Stresemann will ask the reichstag to create him a sort of parliamentary dictator by endowing his new cabinet with extraordinary authority comparable to the war power of the pres- iaent for tne Lnited States. This will mean that the cabjnet can proclaim laws without the consent of the reichstag and such consent now is obtained only after prolonged bickering among the parties. Stresemann can then aro ahead With Mm Internal sn4 I dl7llllI you. i-ro uuoui ursi caving: to ask the reichstag, but subject to revision if the country opposes his plans.
