Germany's Future.

We have the high authority of
Mr.. Thomas W. Lamont that the
reparation payments that Ger
many has now agreed to pay will
not crush the economic life of
that country. and can, indeed, be
met with no great suffering pro-
vided the government frees
itself of military expenses.
Under the agreement, as now
accepted by both sides, Germany
will pay annually 487 millions of
dollars in money, and, in addi-
ton, a sum equal to 25 per cent.
of the goods exported from Ger
many. This will continue until
the sum of SO billion dollars has
been paid.
The reparation payments are
thus divided into two parts. The
money item, 487 million dollars,
although large, can be paid.
Germany can save that much by
dispensing with a great army
and a great navy. The tax on
exports is another matter, and
the economists are divided as to
how that will work. Germany is
not compelled, indeed, to levy
such a tax. If her exports are
500 million dollars she can levy
an export tax to produce the 125
millions needed, or she can raise
that money by taxing all the peo-
pie. Looked at in one way it
seems only fair to tax the expor-
ters, but the argument against
this is that such tax night, and
probably would curtail Germany's
export trade. Germany can pro-
luce cheaply, but that she can
,elI her goods at a profit in for
,ign markets after paying a 25
Ter cent. export tax before they |
cave Germany is very improba-
Die. In the end, Germany will
probably decide to do without an.
export tax, and raise all her re-
,aration money by direct taxa
ion.
Germany's financial and econo-
mic position Is not bad, or would
lot be bad were it not for Ger
mans own giant debt. What is
going to be done about that?
The reparation payments must
come first. Will Germany be
.ble, in addition to making the
separation payments, to keep up
he interest on her own debt? |

Wonderful Nevada opal.

The mines of Humboldt county, Ne
yada, have produced every kind OF
opal known to science. The great
black opal found there SONG years ago
was the largest ever discovered, weigh
ing 1919 troy ounces, or, in jeWelry
phraSeology, 800. karats. 1t is nearly
4 inches long, 3 is inches wide and
averages . ~ inches in thickness. 1t
is, in short, about half the size of an
ordinary brick. At So karat its
value would be more than $4,000, but
,its great size increases the value TO
the point where it is worth whatever
a gem fancier will pay for If. The
highest rating ever obtained for an
opal was that for gem from Hun
gary, which was estimated to he worth
S25O,00O. on the same basis of rating
the Nevada gem would be worth as
much.

HOLD-UP MEN GET

Wallingford, Nov. "A daring hold-up was pulled off here just be- fore midnight, when Charles Back es was robbed of $40. He was on his way home, when an automo obile, with three men in it, drew up to the curb on South Main street and two of them leVclleo guns at the local cti- zen and proceeded to clean out his pockets. The third man remained ir the car. The machine then drove rapidly toward New Haven.
