FRANCE WIPINC OUT
STAINS OF THE WAR
Tardieu Reports Great Prog
ress in Reconstruction.

PARIS, Oct. Capt. Andre Tardieu,
member of the French peace commission,
speaking at a meeting of the French
American Club, gave interesting figures
on the reconstruction work accomplished
since the armistice. Sixty thousand Of
the $4,000 houses in the battle area,
wrecked by shell fire, have been rebuilt !;
2,016 kilometers of the 3.246 kilometers
Of railway destroyed have been repaired
and 700 of the 1875 kilometers of ca
nails rendered useless in the course Of
hostilites are again in commission. OF
the 1,160 plants destroyed by the enemy
SOS haveNbeen repaired.
Equally remarkable progress Is being
made in restoring to cultivation the vast
areas in the devastated regions. which
the end of the war left with their rich
surface soil plowed under by artillery
FIRE, sown with dangerous unexploded
shells and cut UP by trenches and thou
sands of miles of rusting barbed wire.
The devastated area embraced $500, 900
acres. OF this approximately 1,000.0 900
acres have been returned to the farmers
and 100000 acres of 1t are ready for
the seed. Ten million meters (mort
than 5000 miles) of barbed wire hav
been disentangled and carried away in
the operation.
The yield of taxes. which was o,U0o,-
900, 600 francs In 1912, has been raised
to 100000, 900 francs in 1919.
Commissioner Tardieu added that a
country which had lost nearly 1000, 900
workers killed or incapacitated by war,
which had been deprived by invasion
of one-fifth of its productive capital and
which, nevertheless, of its own efforts
had accomplished such a showing as
that recited above has right to rely
on the effective help of its allies and
associates to restore COMPLETELY Its

WET LEADERS IN DISSENT


wAsH1NGToNs Oct. Identification Of
The peace treaty by three of the FIVE
great Powers, which, according to n
p,ovision of the pact, will put peace into
universal effect. will not give the Presi-
dent an opportunity to lift the war time
prohibition, Representative Volstead
(Ninn), chairman of the House Judi
ciary Committee, in charge of prohibition
legislation. and Representative Webb IN.
c., ranking Democrat pf that commit
tee, said to-day.
Both thought the ratification of the
treaty by the United States was neces-
rary before the President, Under the
wording of the war time prohibition act
could take steps to lift the ban.
SHOULD Italy ratify the treaty soon,
as France and England have done. l
am sure It would, have no effect on the
prohibition question Nin this country"
said Mr. Volstead. "rhat would put the
treaty into effect and mean peace for
the countries approving the pact. but the
United States still would be at war
with Germany. The prohibition act un-
doubtedly provides for the lifting of the
ban only when the United States and
Germany are at peace and the President
could take no other action.
"The United States technically never
assumed the position of an ally during
the war, as the forces fighting Germany
were frequently referred to as the
United States and the associated
Powers and the putting OF the treaty
into effect will have no effect on the
United States"
Ratification of the peace treaty by
the United States is the only thing that
will bring a period of wet days before
constitutional prohibition gees into effect
January 16 next" Mr.. Webb said.
Representative Graham (PaD, also a
member of the Judiciary Committee.
takes the position. however. that the
President has the power to lift the ban
now. The war time prohibition act
gives the President the discretion to lift
the ban either when the army is demo-
bilized or upon the conclusion of peace
through ratification of the treaty.
THE point that has been overlooked
is that the act specifies the President
may repeal when either OF the two re-
quirements are fulfilled, not when both
of them are" Mr. Graham said.
The prohibition enforcement bill for
both war time and constitutional prohi-
biton is expected to go to the President
late tomorrow. Mr.. Nolstead expects
TO call up the conference report which
already has been passed by the Senate.
The vets are planning to make points Of
order against some of the provisions
and the bill might be sent back to con-
ference.

PLANS GIVING VETS
HOMES, NOT FARMS
Morgan Offers Substitute for
MOndell Soldiers Land
Reclamation Bill.
Specini Despnfch 10 TEE SUI.

WASHINGTON, Oct 9.-Government aid
returned service men was suggested in
the House to-day by Representative
Morgan (Okla.), Republican. who asked
that this plan be substituted for the
Mondell soldiers land bill. which has
been slumbering on the House calendar.
Mr.. Morgan asserted that the Mondell
bill would benefit only a small percent
age of the service men, as most of them
do not desire to reclaim waste and arid
land that will give little return for many
years, whereas a large majority are
anxious to obtain assistance In home
building.
THE bill which have presented"
said Mr.. Morgan. proposes to create
Government controlled corporation with
capital OF 800, 900, 900 subscribed by
the Government 1t is authorized to
make a loan Of not exceeding sixty
years and will be paid on the amortza-
ton plan. The total annual payment re-
quired OF borrowers will be "a per cent,
which will include 3 a per cent interest,
| one-half of 1 per cent. on the principal
and one-half of per cent. for the guar
antee fund. The corporation will use It's
capital as a revolving fund in making
on which to make loans through the sale
| of it's bonds
1.-THE unusual feature OF the plan Is
| that loans will be made up to 100 per
cent. of the appraised value OF the home
purchased, thus placing 1t within the
reach of every soldier. regardless OF his
financial condition. The corporation will
be able to do this and meet any unusual
| losses occasioned thereby by the use OF
the income from its $10o,0Oo,0o0 endow-
ment capital and the one-half of l per
cent paid annually by each borrower on
| the face of his loan into the guarantee
| fund.
by actual calculation l have found
the corporation can make 100000 loans
annually OF $4,000 each for a period of
twenty years, which would provide
homes for 2,O00,0O0 soldiers. charge off
every years per cent of this amount
| due from it's borrowers. and at the end
of twenty years will have increased its
capital from $780, 600, 900 to $500, 765,375.
II can stand a 10 per cent. loss each
year on the amount due It, and at the
end of twenty years will have a capital
of s274,S65,0OO, showing net earnings of
s174,365, 900, enabling 1t to return the
s1O00O0,000 advanced by the Govern
ment with interest and still retain its
original capital.
"In addition to its chief object II will
serve at least three great national pur-
poses. 1t will multiply the number of
home owners. encourage thrift and saw
ing among both soldiers and investors.
and stand as a mighty bulwark against
7. w. W.ism, Bolshevism and every other

PARIS. Oct. 9.-The chief of the Ger
man delegation has sent to the general
secretary of the conference a new note,
asking that the plebiscite to determine
the future of the district of Eupen and
Malmedy, which are coded by the peace
treaty to Belgium, shall take place un-
der control OF commission appointed
by the League of Nations and including

By the peace treaty the Belgian au-
thorities in the two districts were to
open registers, in which the inhabitants
might record within the six months
after the treaty is in effect a desire to
see the whole or part of the territory
returned to German sovereignty.
The note asks that the plebiscite in
stead should be constituted under rigor-
ously secret provisions, and complains
of several attempts made by Belgian au-
thorities to influence the results Of the
plebiscite by intimidation of voters de-
string German sovereignty.
