GERMANS SUBMIT TO ALLIES THEIR VIEWS ON WAR
 INDEMNiTIES.
RAW MATERIALS ARE NEEDED
Suggest Schedule For Clearing Up the Obligation in Thirty Years in An nual ayments-Hesitate On
 Coal Question.

Spa, Belgium.-After some hesita- fion, due to the coal question, the Ger man delegates produced their plan showing how Germany would deal with separations, but they specified that the decision reached regarding coal would modify their proposals.
 The allied experts had declared they did not consider that even the figures submitted by the Germans would jus tify modification of the protocol sign ed July 2, but admitted the justice of the Germans pleas on two points, first relieving Germany of the obliga-- tion of reporting to the Preparation Commission regarding the distribu- tion of coal within Germany, and sec ond approving the proposal to increase the output by improving the food and welfare of the miners and suggesting that the German and allied govern ments discuss means to this end.
 The German reparation plan is in three parts. It was submitted to the conference with the understanding that 1t must be accepted as whole The plan follows:
 Part 1, section 1: The German government considers that the pur- pose of the present negation is to make a final settlement of their en- tire obligation for reparation.
 Section 2: The German govern ment, knowing that it is obliged un- der the treaty to pay on May 1, 1921, 120000,000 gold marks, considers that it has already paid not only that sum, but a much higher one, according to it's accounts.
 Section sets forth that in provid- ing for the future the German govern ment would be unable to fulfill it's obligations unless the German budget can be reduced.
 Section 4 provides that the measure of Germany's ability to pay, owing to her weakened economic structure, re- uuires that she should have necessary food, fodder fertilizers and other raw materials.
 Section names the principles upon which the German government consid' CTS it's payments should be regulated -(a) by annuities; (b) annuities to be limited to 30 years.

.& press as to ssHow old is John?"
 Old 'Uncle" Johnny Shell, tho Kentucky mountaineer, who paid visit to the Kentucky State Fair at Louisville last fall, has become famous over night as a result of this controversy.
 Such papers as the "New York Herald" the Literary Digest" and other periodicals of national circulation, have printed his picture, with comments on the question at issue.
 So much interest has been shown in the matter, that special investigator was sent to Greasy Creek, Kentucky, by The Chattanooga Medicine Company (whose medicine-Thedford Black Draught Liver Medicine-had been used in the Shell fam fly for many years) in order to get more information on the subject.
 The investigators report is given on an- other column of this page. The result of this investigation seems to show, on tes- timony of friends and neighbors, that John Shell is about 112 years old, that his health
 is good for a man of his age, and that
 his mind is clearer than that of the
 average centenarian.
