'tn this direction. At a recent meeting
OF that city, the erection/of a $4,000
National Guard armory there as q
memorial to Custer county men who
participated in the war was decided
upon, and it vas proposed that a tax
levy be made On property owners of
the county to meet the expense. If
this is found unpermissible under the
law, the state legislature is to be
asked at it's coming session. to amend
the statutes to permit it. it was de-
cided. y

monument on Big Butte, a high
mountain which rises from the west

for 60 miles around, has been put
forth by M. M. Donoghue, president
Of the Montana Federation of Labor,
He suggests that the names of all

Gloomy View of
German Financial
Situation Taken
Only Foreign Credits Will Save
Country From Bankruptcy,
Is View of Expert

BERLIN, Aug. % (By The Associ
ated Press ).-The financial writer on
the "Lokal-Anzeiger" takes gloomy
view of the financial situation and the
decreasing value of the mark He
points out that Germany has only
1900 900, 900 marks in gold left in the
Reichsbank, and she cannot dis
pose of this while paper money now
totals 10000, 100000 marks and more
daily is being printed.
"Only foreign credits will save Ger
many from complete bankruptcy" says
the writer. "lf Finance Minister Err
berger is able to induce foreign credits
to Germany then disaster can be
avoided"
The writer questions the ability of
the Finance Minister to obtain the
necessary credits, saying the accom-
plishment of this task is we'll nigh
impossible. He cites an alleged threat
of an American financier to remove
the mark quotation from the stock
exchanges Of the world, declaring
this would make the mark utterly
worthless.
The dollar has been buying more
marks recently than ever. The quota
ton rose from about 10 marks per
dollar, the rate after the signing of
the armistice, to ii and Is marks.
Here it stood for a time, but recently
it swung rapidly upward and as high
as "a marks were offered in Berlin
for American bills. The correspond
ent was informed at the Dresdner
Bank that on an American draft he
might surely count on IS marks and
prOhablV more Der dollar.
Felix Pinner, the Tageblatt's fnan-
cial expert, admits \that Erzberger's
plans are partly RESPONSIBLE for the
financial situation, bit he calls atten-
ton to the heavy overlooking of the
foreign markets with German money,
giving as an instance Switzerland.
where he says there are 20O0,0 100000
marks, or as much as Germany's paper
circulation in peace times similar
situation exists in Scandinavia and
Holland, says Pinner, who adds that
the Entente Powers doubtless have
rickcd up many millions in occupied
territory.
"The escape of the mark abroad and
its consequent depreciation" Pinner
declares. "came about in two ways:
First, through payment for goods
struggled through occupied territory,
and, second, through Erzberger's with
drawal order
Pinner estimates that 9,000,000,000
marks are abroad He says havoc was
caused the value of the mark W, ben it
was proposed to stamp bills and Ynvali-
date those unstamped. The writer also
declares that credit from the United
States is the only salvation, and that
unless the people work and increase
production they cannot expect to in
duce credit to come to Germany.
BERLIN, Aug. 23.-Owing to objec-
tions by the financial experts consider
ing a means of preventing an exodus
from the capital and reducing the in
flated paper currency, Herr Erzberger,
Minister of Finance, has withdrawn his
stamping plan.
Herr Erzberger in July presented a
comprehensive set of measures to pre-
vent tax evasons. These included pro-
visions to prevent fraud through CAPT
tai being taken abroad, including a
plan to require that all stocks, bonds
and coupons must be restamped by the
government, and that all such secur
ties not restamped would revert to the
empire.
