Folly to Expect That
Germany Will Pay,
Says Paris Socialist

Paris, April 1l.-(By Mail, De-
layed.)-France 10 beginning to ask
what will happen if Germany does
not pay her war contribution. The
financial situation in France is un-
questionably serious, because the
country is faced with the necessity
Of finding E2,00O,000,000 ($10,OOO,-
000,000) to cover war debts and sup-|
Elementary expenses, in addition tol
her normal budget. This budget will
be E740,000,000 annually, while the
annual revenue is only f320,000, 900.
Various senate chamber commits
sions are uniting their energies in
an attempt to discover means tol
guarantee the equilibrium Of future
budgets, and M. Clemenceau and MI
Klotz, the minister of finance, will
shortly meet these commissions I'M
order to decide on what government
measures are necessary.
Briefly, the situation is that since
the outbreak of war frances ex-
penditure and debts have amounted
to Sc, 400,0 900, 900, while the revenueI
to meet this is nearly $4,000, 900, 000|
short. In addition, France must find
S., 000y000,000 to meet supplementary
expenses in the last nine months of
this year, making = total deficit oil
$40 00,000000. Apart from this, there
is the normal budget estimate atI
100000, against which there isl
normal revenue of only 81, 900, 000,-'
900.
In order to meet this large deficit
an extraordinary budget probably
will be instituted, but the basis of
this budget must necessarily be sup
piled by Germany's contribution toI
France.
l. Marcel Sembat, the socialist dep,
uty, recently warned the French peo-
pie that it is folly to expect Germany
to pay her bill, and he charged the
government with throwing dust inI
the peoples eyes.
DR.. Bertillon in the Matin de-
clares that the war has robbed,
France of 100000 Of her popula-
ton. He says that according to the
latest returns the census at the end
of 1919 will show a population Of
only 100000 or 35,000,000.

Girl Refuses to Give
Up Sisters Husband
Who Took Her Away

Come back to Kansas City and
take care Of your children" reads a
telegram received by Oscar Horton,
held at the county jail pending the
fling Of white slave charge against
him by federal officials.
Horton surrendered himself to
Chief of Police Eberstein Thurs
day, admitting he had done wrong
in deserting his wife and two chill
dren, and coming to Omaha with his
wife's l8-year-old sister, Claudell
Sebastian. He told officers that he
and Claudell had arrived in Omaha
Sunday and had lived happily as
man and wife till his conscience in
terfered.
Miss Sebastian Is still in Omaha
and told federal officers nothing
could force her to give up her sis
ter's husband. She insisted that she
had bought the railroad tickets and
that Horton had merely accom-
panied her to Omaha at her own
wish.
Horton, who is Is years old, says
he will never go back to his wife,
who is only 20 years of age. he says.

SEVEN BERLIN
BANKS CLOSED
BY STR|K ERS
Men Turn Fire Hose on Crowd
Who Would Fill Places;
Directors Issue
Statement.

Berlin, April ll.-(By Associated
Ptess.)-The largest seven banks in
Berlin were closed today as a result
Of the spread Of the strike Of bank
employees and intimidation BY the
strikers. Five thousand employees Of
the Deutsche bank yesterday voted
against striking by . majority Of 200,
but the big institution was forced
to close because its employees were
prevented from reporting to work
BY the striking clerks from other
banks. Clashes between the strikers
and the other employees were marked
BY fisticuffs and heated alterations,
which prompted the director of the
Dcutsche bank to stop operations.
Numerous private banks were oper-
ating ~ usual today.
Pickets Appear.
Strikers pickets appeared at the
Dcutsche bank at s o'clock in the
morning, while the would-be work
ers came on the scene a little later.
a struggle ensued when the clerks,
who wanted to work, attempted to
force an entrance. The strikers
were reinforced by Spartacan vol
unteers. Some adventurous strik-
els entered the building with fire
hose ard directed it at the strug-
Cling : crowd outside. Bludgeons
and knives were being used freely
when 4 company OF Reinhardy
troops arrived and dispersed both
the, strikers and the workers.
The director of the Deutsche bank
issued statement declaring that a
majority of the bank had been
cverpowered by a minority, making
it necessary to close the bank.
lesser disorders occurred at
other banks where the employees
are on strike.
Using Wage Question.
The cause Of the strike is de-
clared to be the dissatisfaction Of
the new and unframed employees
because OF the discrepancy in wages
and other prerogatives existing be.
tween them and the older workers.
They are using the wage question
to bring political issues into the
present controversy and demand the
setting up of workers councils for
regulating the questions of wages,
promotions, sick benefits and pen
sions.
In addition to the Deutsche bank,
the Dresdener, Diskonto, Darn
staedter, Commerz und Diskonto
and the Mittel Deutsche Kredit
banks and the Reichsbank are closed.

The Silesian Prize
By William G. Dreher
Berlin Correspondent of the Tribune
TIME Upper Slesian coalfeld is one of

TIME Upper Silesian coalfeld is one of
the greatest in the world. It's reserve
supply is even greater than that Of the
Ruhr Essen district), and hence greater
than any other field on the Continent There
is more coal there than in all the British
Islands, taking the whole field, including
Poland and Gaica. 1t has been estimated by
experts to contain 166 billion TONS Some So
per cent Of this deposit lies in Silesia, 8 per
cent in Poland proper, and about 80 per cent
in what was hitherto Austrian territory. AS
this latter falls to Poland that country could
begin it's revived exstencewith quite enor-
nous reserve coal supply, even without that
of Upper S!esia.
Before the war the greatest production
(19l3) was 100000 tons for Siesia, H.
100000 for Austria and 100000 for Poland.
Thus Poland can begin business with pos
sible production Of at least 100000 year,
with its own undisputed mines. Besides this,
production in the old Austrian territory
south and southeast Of Silesia is capable of
indefinite expansion. 1t is estimated that
this field will last at least 1000 years, at a
considerably higher rate of mining than has
recently prevailed. The richness of the de-
posts is astonishing. In some places seams
as thick as forty feet are found.
At present there are sixty-two coal mines
in Upper Silesia, but the number of COM
panes and individuals owning them is much
smaller Among the principal operators are
half dozen joint stock companies and sew
eral great aristocratc families, like Prince
Won Donnersmarck, Count Tiele- Winckler,
Prince Pless, Count Schaffgotsch, also the
Prussian state. Some of the big German
owners also have large mining lands across
the frontier in Poland; the city of Sos
novice, just across the frontier, owes its de-
velopment almost wholly to German capital
1t is prosperous town of 100000 inhab-
tants, with its numerous smokestacks cutting
the horizon.
But Upper Silesia is also one of the great
est zinc regions in the world. Over II per
cent Of the worlds production of zinc is
mined here. It's production in 1918 was
10000 tons. A considerable amount of lead
is also taken from the mines. A very i'm
portant iron and steel industry is main
tanned by the fuel mined in this district, but
the iron ore output of the district has been
running down, and the smelling companies
have been compelled to bring in larger and
larger stocks of from abroad, chiefly
from Sweden and Poland.
In one of my automobile trips with the
State Commissioner he pointed to a great
aggregation of big buildings and smokestacks
on an eminence q mile away and remarked:
"There is the biggest electrical generating
plant in the world, except yours at Niagara
In connection with it is operated the greatest
nitrogen recovery plant in Germany. 1t was
built during the war"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-06-29

Mr.. Kitchn's demurrer misses the real
point That is that the present House
of Representatives has shown a zeal for
economy which has more than kept pace
with the reductions conceded by the
heads of the War and Navy departments.
Secretary Baker asked, for instance.
that the regular army be maintained
during 1920 at strength Of 100000
men. The House cut it's strength to
100000, and in conference has succeeded
in holding it down to $4,000. Since this
figure is only an I'D interim one and pre-
judges in no way the problems Of per
manent reorganization, it represents a
welcome retrenchment. And the naval
bill will show similar economies, thought
inadvisable at present by Mr.. Daniels.
The thing of genuine Importance is
that the House realizes so completely the
absolute necessity of closing as quickly
as possible the present gap between in
come and expenditure, and thus checking
the creation Of new bonded debt. The
House leaders are entitled to great credit
for vigiantly looping off war costs. It
cannot detract from their service that
they are taking advantage Of conditions
which have made part of the expendi-
ture estimated for last winter admittedly
