GERMANS GAIN
DISBANDING.
Limitation on Annual Cost
Fixed by Big Three's"
1919 Agreement.
PROTOCOL ISPUBLISHED
Bavarian and Other Home
Guards May Be Mustered
Out Soon Now.
By 9. b. CoNGER.

FRANKFoRT-ON- Dec. D.
The question Of disarmament Of the
Bavarian and other home guards
and the disbandment Of the "or-
gesch- and similar self defense or
ganizations has assumed for Ger
many financial as we'll as politicc
Importance by the revelation of an
e. agreement between President VIII
son. Premier Lloyd George and Pre-
mier clemenceau to introduce a lin
itation on thecost Of the occupation
as soon as German disarmament
was completed.
The government recently dis
claimed all knowledge of such a
pledge, but the protocol of the ses-
sion of the Big Three on June 16.
1913, now published here, shows that
the following decision was signed
by the three chiefs of State:
.Ts LIkhten War Burden.
"To tighten the burden of repara-
tions, We agree now and for the
future that as soon as the interested
allied and associated powers are
satisfied that Germany has fulfilled
the disarmament conditions salts
ractoriIy. the annual amount pay
able by Germany to meet the cost
OF occupation is not to exceed 24o.-
100000 marks gold (s60, ,Ooo. .0oo)."
The protocol also continues the
agreement between the three states
men looking for the withdrawal of
the army of occupation before the
expiration of fifteen years and be-
lore Germany has completed the
payment of reparations. provided
she has given proofs of good
and satisfactory guarantees of the
1ulfilIment of her obligations.
Powers Must BE sati.ned.
The Limitation on cost would COM
mence when, but only when. the
question of home guards is adjusted
10 the satisfaction of the controlling
powers, since the reduction of the
regular army to the limits provided
In the treaty and the Spa agree
ment are well on their way to COM
pietion- Hence the German tax
payers have a direct interest in the
quick surrender of the Bavarian
special armament.
The terms OF the protocol are of
nnanclaI interest and Importance for
the United States since the cost of
maintaining the American forces on
the Rhine alone is far in excess of
theihmit Of Approximately $50, ,o0O,-
600 specified in the agreement, which
sum, IL divided among the occupy
ing powers proportionately to the
size Of their armies in the Rhine
land, would give only a few million
dollars to the United States and
leave most of the expense of occupa.
ton to be borne by the American
Treasury.

WOBILLIONS
IN CREDIT, PLAN
Gov. Harding Suggests Vast
Corporation to Stimulate
Farm Trade Abroad.

HARRISBURG. Pa, Dec. 2.-Crea-
tion of a United States Finance Cor
poration capitalized at $4,000, ,0oo, 900
to open foreign trade and extend
credit to farmers would solve the
problem confronting agricultural in
terests of the country, Gov. w. l.
Harding. of Iowa. declared wednes-
day at the conference of governors.
The corporation would be for the
purpose of funding the allied debt.
explained Harding. Credit could
be extended farmers. who will move
their crops in the export trade. he
said.
The plan would break the dead
lock now existing on corn, cotton
and other products OF the farm
where by reason of present exchange
conditions and lack of credit abroad
buying power is almost absolute
ly lacking" he added.
Farmers Need Credit.
Unless sufficient credit is offered
farmers in all parts of the country
they are not going to produce
enough to meet demands for their
products.N the Iowa governor stated.
The finance corporation. under
proper management and control and
under the supervision of the Fed
eral Reserve Board. would soon sta
bilize foreign exchange. but pri-
marily would make /, 1t possible
through extension of credits to re-
lieve conditions of over-production
at home and at the same time re-
lieve the danger Of shortage
abroad"
THE weapon of impartial justice
under responsible government" was
offered as substitute for the "wea-
pom of the strike" by Gov. Henry ].
Allen of Kansas.
II fully agree that any law that
goes to take away from labor its
right to strike without giving to Ia
Dor adequate protection would be
going backward" Allen declared
But We have arrived at the period
when government provides the only
strength through which in justice
we may get this protection" he
said. =
Arbitration Has Fafled.
Gov. Allen stated that arbitration
has failed after sixty years of
growing industrial strife in Amer
lea.
In the Kansas law we are doing
away with the principle of arbitra-
ton and establishing the principle
of adjudication" he said.
Governor Bamberger of Utah pre-
sided at the conference, which was
attended by governors and govern
ors-elect or their personal repre-
sentatives from thirty States.
TT is fitting that the conference
of Governors this year, in a period
of reconstruction should be held in
Pennsylvania, where so much of the
history of the United States has

address Of welcome.

q st, J.. train, Monday remained a mys-
terry still despite the fact that Mr..
Thompson spent part Of Sunday in
Memphis and left Sunday night for
Nashville accompanied by his wife and

vile to meet him.
Mr.. Thompson reached Memphis Sun
day afternoon from Augusta, Ark. ac-
companied by John Regal. friend who
recognized him aboard a west-bouud
Iron Mountain train near that city Sat
urday and telephoned Thompson's rela %
tive in Nashville. Mrs. Thompson and
DR.. A. w Harris, his physician were
on hand to meet him. Thompson was
taken to the Hotel Chisca and placed
in bed hy his physician. who permitted
no one to see him until he left Sunday
night for Nashville.
According to Or. Harris Sunday night,
Mr.. Thompson is suffering from a ner-
vous collapse aud is on the verge Of
a breakdown. The physician would not
allow him to talk about his leaving the
train nor any subject connected with
his disappearance from the Pullman.
The physician stated that there was
a period of 80 hours which Thompson
had indicated he knew nothing about.
The physician declared that after a
few day3 rest Mr. Thompson would
probably be able to converse upon his
strange actions and would probably is

medical man indicated there would be
no statement issued and no one would

BOSTON, Aug. 2-~The Securities

claimants awaiting attention was a
long one. fully eaualling that Of the
early days Of last week, when, ~ the
request of investigating officials,
Pongi stopped taking in money from
wouldhe depositors Ponzi's prompt
return Of funds to those who asked
for them, had the effect toward the
end last week Of greatly diminishing
the number of claimants, but there
was evidence today of a sudden re-
newal OF the desire to cash the notes
he had issued.
While his clerks were meeting his
demands, returning the principal to
those whose 90-day notes had not ma
tured. and keeping, It was said. to the
promise to pay 30 per cent interest on
matured notes. Ponzi himself issued
statement in denial OF a published

Masters expressed the belief that

was paying out money to some de-
posttors at the expense OF others

Many of those who waited for their
money today were carrying copies Ct
