Washington, Dec. 2 I.-The fate of E'urope Is --o closely interwoven with that of Gerninny that the other Eu ropean nations should lend her every assistance Iin the or-gallizatioil and mliaintelanee of a stable govermllienl, Gen. Taske'r If. Illiss, American repre eintative on the stiplrelle War council, said today !n1 a talk with newspaper imen. Prescinl till nrest ill IEur ope is due al most iliely to unfavorable economic Conditions. Geiieral IBliss said, but these could be rapidly and wholly cor reeted if all Eir.ope conibiled revsour (C es in the effort. General V5liss sutigested the pooling of necessl les and raw materials un der one m1.an rwho would be designated "director-ge neral of supplies" and who 'would haI'! associated with him a "director-4.,neral of (istriution" to see that 'upplies wfere apportioned where most urgently needed. Delaring that food production in Europe this year would be from 80 to 8UP per ceit of normal, General Miss epressed heli conviction that there would be cnoutgl for all if properly distributed and that. therefore there was no real reason for famine in any par t of Eu irope. General 1liss said that fear of a re vival of (erman militarism had been greatly exaggerated; Iliat no reports which had reached him indicated the return of junker domination, and moreover inder the terms of the peace treaty, the German army end mni1 tion facilities were so reduced as to make heir coimi' back as a coinbaLlait hopeless.
