HAUGHTY SPIRIT IN ENGLAND SO SOLF DECLARES DON'DON, Nov. 29. (British Wireless Service.) A condensed report of the ses- i sion of representatives of the German ! federal states at Berlin early this week j is given in the German Wireless Ser- vice of November 27. The attacks on . Dr. Solf, the foreign secretary, and Ma- thins Frzberger are omitted in this report, re-port, but it includes an account of Dr. Solf's speech. The foreign minister is quoted as saying, among other things: "In England a haughty spirit of victory prevails. Even Lord T.ansdowne and Arthur Ar-thur Henderson (Labor party leader) have been silenced and Lord Kobert Cecil's Ce-cil's resignation may presumably be attributed at-tributed to his attitude toward the league of nations." Dr. Solf's statement regarding Lord Robert Cecil must be known to the Germans Ger-mans to be untrue. Lord Robert publicly pub-licly stated that he resigned on no grounds of foreign policy whatsoever. lie i expressed himself in fuljV agreement with i the whole policy of the government with ! the one exception of its attitude toward j the Question of the Welsh disestablishment disestablish-ment and disendowment act. ! The Berlin government, according to a news dispatch received from Copenhagen i by the Exchange Telegraph company, has i sent a telegram to the former German I emperor, now in Holland, demanding the forma! abdication of himself and the for- mer crown prince.
