HOW GERMANY MUST PAY.

Allied experts have figured that Germany pay indemnity
gregatng 22000O0G00 gold marks plus 1917 per upon
her export trade all this be spread period of orywo
years.
German preparing statistics prove that Ger
many not pay that much.
In France and Great Britain the question is How much
get of Germany during this and the generation?
British economic expert j. Ellis Barker year
pointed huge German either of which he insisted
would pay the indemnity then demanded by France considerable
higher than that agreed upon by Allied economic experts
Germany annd potash would square Germany debts
to the allies nations, Barker said
He estimated from prewar German reports that in the Rhen-
Westphan coal fields alone Germany had coal worth pre-
mine prices times much asked of Germany
elusive the export which recognize would high
tariff wall against Germany trade for at least four decades
The coal in that district Barker estimated worth 22OO
billion gold marks The Allies experts place the indemnity 300
billion gold marks Exclusive of export tax.
Germanys immense potash (at pewar prices would
according to Barkers estimates yield something like 800 billion gold
marks more than twice the fixed indemnity.
The trouble though lies the fact that the coal potash
be mined and the workers must live while they dig If
potash could be scoped up much gold vault and
ported to the allied treasures the solving the indemnity problem
would be comparatively easy
If Germany could hand half her potash her
underground coal and call the bill settled would less wall
ing and CRASHING of teeth beyond the Rhine
But she can't.
Germany must settle to the and min
ing her coal and potash turning her natural resources into
gold its equivalent the while she carries her own cost of
living and cost of production
The best Germany get will hard ermsfrom the Ger
standpoint

accused. The U. S. Public Health
Service however, finds that he is prob

only under especially filthy condii-

Had Recently Gone to
Langley Field to Try
Bombing Stunts
tBy Associated Pressl

Hampton, Va, June Flying
cadets Knoei R. Thompson and c. A.
Bowen, were killed instantly at
Langley Field this afternoon when
de Haviland-4 plane in which they
were making a bombing flight struck
tree top and became ignited' Three
of four bombs being carried in the
carriage were detonated and blew the
machine to bits, burning and terrib-
ly mutilating the bodies of the two
aviators.
Pieces of the plane were thrown
great distances by the first explosion
which occurred about minute after
the machine took a straight dive into
the tree, which stands on the edge OF
the flying field. Efforts had been made
by Cadet Thompson, pilot, to extri-
cate the machine from the tree, even
after flames had broken out by the
engine.
Cadet Thompson, whose home is
in Jacksonville, ILL.,, and Cadet Bowen,
of Quitman, Ca, had come to Lang
ley field only few weeks ago from
Texas. They were considered safe
pilots and had been participating
since their arrival in preparations for
army and navy bombing experiments
to be conducted later this month.

TREATY WITH MEX
FORMALLY OFFERED
BY UNITED STATES
Only Needs Signature of
Obregon to Make 1t
Effective
PROPERTY RIGHTS
BE SAFEGUARDED
If Obregon Does Accept
Two Ministers Oppose
The Treaty
CBy Associated Press)

Washington, June THE Ameri-
can government has proposed treaty
of amity and commerce with Mexico
it was announced today at the State
Department in which Mexico will
agree to safeguard the rights of pro-
perty in that country held by Ameri-
can citizens which was attached be-
fore the constitution of 1917 was pro-
mulgated. The signing of the treaty
automatically would accomplish Am
erican recognition of the Mexican
government.
Formal announcement of the admin
istration's policy toward the southern
republic was made after the subject
had been discussed at the regular
cabinet meeting. President Harding
and his advisers had before them a
communication from President Obre-
gon relating to the proposed treaty
which was presented to the Mexican
President by George 7. Summerlin,
the American charge at Mexico
City, May 27. The text of Obregon's
reply had been withheld and admins
tration officers declined to discuss it
or to make any comment as to the re-
lation to it of the announcement of
policy made public by Secretary
Hughes.
1t is understood however, that Obre-
gon referred to the negotiations which
are proceeding with Mr.. Summerlin
and indicated willingness to carry
them forward. 1t is known that he
has summoned to the capital Minis
ters Gales and De La Huerta, who
are reported to have counselled
against the signing of such a treaty
at Mexican cabinet conference held
after it had become known in Mexico
City that treaty of this character
would be proposed by the United
States.
Secretary Hughes announcement
contained no reference of the atti-
tude as suggested by President Obre-
gon, but it did say that if Mexico did
not contemplate a confscatory policy
with regard to property the American
government could conceive of no
possible objection to the treaty."

DEMOCRATS ATTACK.
REBUB PROVISIONS
FOR DISARMAMENT.
(By Associated PressD

Washington, June 1.-THE house
paved the way today to strike out the
Borah disarmament amendment from
the naval appropriation bill.
In sending the bill to conference
by 232 to ITO, republican lead
ers indicated that the house would
not have an opportunity to vote di-
rectly on the Borah amendment. In
stead Representatives Mondell, Wy
oming, the republican leader, announc-
ed he would advocate accepting as a
substitute, of the Porter resolution
reported by the foreign affairs COM
mittee which would leave entirely in
the hands of the President the ques-
ton of calling an international con-
ference.
While there was sharp difference
of opinion on the Borah amendment
the house seemed united in its deter
mination not to accept any part of
the $9S,OOO,OO0 added to the naval
bill by the senate.
The Porter resolution was attacked
by democrats, Representative Pou, of
North Carolina characterizing it as
ga gold brick" while Representative
Connally, Texas, democrat, member
of the foreign affairs committee de-
clared it "a colorless, one half of one
per cent proposition without teeth or
whiskers."
