GERMAN PASSIVE RESISTANCE ENDING BY S. D. WEYER (I. N. S. Staff Correspondent) (Copyright 1922 by International News Service) DUSSELDORF, Sept. 10.—"German passive resistance in the Ruhr has entered its last phase," General De Goutte, the French commander, told International News Service in an interview today. "There is no longer any real heart and swing in it. The Germans have been cooking their own goose—cutting their own throats. The cost of this resistance has been ruining German finances. The longer passive resistance lasts, the more difficult it will be for German industry to resume. When we came into the Ruhr I did not think the Germans would keep up resistance this long. I thought the German industrialists were too intelligent to pursue this suicidal policy. This resistance will prove a terrible boomerang to them. It is a weapon the workers will use against their employers just as quickly as they did against us. Nothing is so dangerous as to get the workers accustomed to earning huge wages while idling away their time. The German policy of paying the Ruhr workers preposterous wages for doing nothing will take awful vengeance when industries resume operation." The correspondent asked General De Goutte if direct negotiations were already under way between Germany, France and Belgium. "I do not know, but I think it is most unlikely because the French government has repeatedly made known that it will listen only to concrete proposals", replied the French commander. "Such proposals have not been made up to date so far as I know." Asked what he thot of the conciliatory speeches Chancellor Streemann has been making, General De Goutte The correspondent asked General De Goutte if direct negotiations were already under way between Germany, France and Belgium. "I do not know, but I think it is most unlikely because the French government has repeatedly made known that it will listen only to concrete proposals", replied the French commander. "Such proposals have not been made up to date so far as I know." Asked what he thought of the conciliatory speeches Chancellor Streemann has been making, General De Goutte answered: "Chancellor Streemann's tone is better than that used by former Chancellor Cuno but speeches have no diplomatic value. They cannot be regarded as direct proposals. One does not make peace treaties with speeches." General De Goutte was next asked if he was satisfied with the results of Franco-Belgian occupation. He answered: "As I told the American public through International News Service early this year, I never doubted the success of occupation. Tranquility prevails throughout the Ruhr. The mood of the population is sullen but not ugly nor provocatory as it was the first few months. We are carrying out our program without haste. Just now we are taking measures to safeguard coal production even if passive resistance by the Germans should continue. We have already taken the production of coke into our hands."
