Stories of violence, robbery and vir'

terest on outstanding bonds. The bill
called for 100000 annually for the bi
ennial period for this, the amount hay
ing been cut down from $4,000, Mr.
Dyer of Salisbury, after consultation
with the state treasurer, declared that
100000 would not be sufficient. He
first proposed that the amount be made
$4,000 for 1929 and II was agreed to
Later he cut the 1928 amount to Sl4O
900. This amendment was adopted with
but little opposition.
Amusement Over Publicity Measure.
Most of the debate on the budget
came in an attempt to cut down the
$4,000 appropriation for publicity
which Gov Hartness had expressly
asked for. That the amendment of Mr.
Bryant of Troy TO reduce the amount
TO $4,000 did not receive a single vote
when it came TO a showdown may be
considered as victory for the admins
tration.
Mr.. Barber had explained in some
retail about this publicity item when
ne was gong over the Duugel. ne "a W
that the $4,000 which this department
has had in the past has been consid-
cred very inadequate for the advertis-
ing of Vermont. Any business that gets
anywhere to-day, he said has to adj
vertise and $4,000 will not go much
further to-day than $4,000 would a
few years ago,

things up somewhat when he asked Mr.

To German Government
Regarding Refusal to
Pay Reparations
1T WAS DELIVERED TO
DELEGATION TO-DAY
With Request That 1t Be
Sent Speedily to German
Government

Parls, March "a (by the ASsoelateu
Press) The German government was
notified by the allied reparations COM
mission to-day that the total amount
of 100000 gold marks due under ar
ticle 235 of the peace treaty m1st be
paid by May or additional penalties
will be inflicted upon Germany.

Press The allied reparations com
missions delivered to the German dele.
CATION here to-day note replying TO
the German refusal to pay the one bill
lion marks gold on reparations ae-
count which the commission had de-
manded be handed over yesterday.
The Germans were asked to have the
note transmitted to the German gov
ernment as quickly as possible.
The commission in its note says
there is nothing in the treaty Of Yer
sailles which obligcs it to confer with
the German government by which the
deliveries OF the twenty billion mark
payment to the allies (which article
235 Of the peace treaty stipulate should
be paid by Germany by May b should
be made or appraised.
THE Germans in their note deliS
cred Wednesday asked that joint
commission of experts fix the value OF
the German deliveries on reparation
account. which they claimed already
more than equalled the twenty billion
mark total, while the reparation com
missions figures showed balance Of
twelve billion marks due. 1t was point
ed out in allied quarters, however, that
the Germans experts already had been
heard BY the commission before it fixed
the valuation of the German deliveries
credited as payments against the twen
ty billion marks.
The note adds that the commission
waited as long as possible before de
manding payment by Germany, think
ing the German government would
take the necessary measures faithfully
to fulfill its obligations under article
235.
The commission is now persuaded,
however, II says. that such is not the
case.
The commission states that it de-
manded the payment by March p q
ono billion marks in gold to apply on
the reparations account because OF
certainty that Germany possessed sui
hcient funds to make immediate pay
