Although Stresemann and his
assistants were visibly nettled at
the precipitate manner in which
the Bavarian action was carried
out. the Berlin government heads
tonight professed the belief that
they once more have become the
victims of Bavarian "idiosyn-
crasies” and seemingly realized
their own ’ inability correctly to
appraise Munich psychology, de-
spite their past experience with
Bavarian diplomacy.
Secession Threat Doubted
The talk of revolt and secession
by Bavaria is scouted in official
circles in Berlin, where the im-
pression is given that the two
governments are in complete ac-
cord with respect to common aims
and that their proclamations in no
way collide. At the chancellory
it was stated that Stresemann was
convinced that Von Knilling was
sincerely desirous of co-operating
with the central government.
