providing Germany pays up the sums
she undertook to pay under the Lon
don ultimatum and agrees to remove
the boycott against French goods, was
decided upon at the final session OF
the allied supreme council. 1t was de-
cided, however, to maintain the occu-
patton of Ruhrort, Duisburg and Dus-
seldorf until the next meeting Of the
council, which it is understood will be
held previous to the Washington arma-
ment conference. At that time, Pre-
mier BRAND consented, the question OF
the occupation of the right bank OF the
Rhine should be reconsidered.
With the question of the disposition
of upper Silesia out of it's hands, the
council went to work on the other mat
ters which it had to take under advise
ment. The decisions were reached af-
| ter M. BRAND, as president of the coun-
Gil, replied to attacks by Lord Curzon,
the British foreign secretary, and Sir
Robert Stevenson Horne, chancellor Of
the British exchequer, against what
was termed the present expensive sys-
tenn of administering the treaty, espe-
cially as concerned the occupation OF
the Ruhr region.
This, Lord Curzon said, 'sis very
costly and also irritating to German
national resentment and pride"
The chancellor Of the British ex'
chequer argued that continuance Of
the present system impoverished every
one of the interested powers, and that
means ought to be examined for reduc
ing the cost as the high expense means
less reparatiOn.

Washington. Pursuit of former

politicians is about to receive a new
impetus by regalvanizing q long un-
noticed federal statute which was en-
acted to keep former departmental Of
ficials in Washington from prosecuting
cases, or claims, against the govern
ment The salute in question was
originally enacted back in 1858, but 1t
Is not now recalled that it has ever
been even SO much as indifferently ap-
piled.
Like many other statutes of similar
political nature of remote enactment.
it fell into disuse and was forgotten
even by it's sponsors. But when Wood
row Wilson and other democrats OF
less renown and distinction established
themselves in Washington as practic-
ing attorneys some of the partisans
who had barked at his heels through
out the eight years of his two admins
trations as chief executive took up the
trail, which should have ended in the
White House March 4, 1921, and are
pursuing him into the peaceful ways
Of private life.
The real animus of the proposed
legislation may be glimpsed In the con-
sidered amendment to make the stat
ute applicable only to those officials
who left the service of the government
since 1918. This amendment would ap-
ply to those democrats who resigned
from the service two years before
Woodrow Wilson retired in 1921.

SEN. LADD RAPS
RESERVE BOARD
ECHOES JOHN SHELTON WILL
LiAMS IN SPEAKING BEFORE
TARIFF CONGRESS.
MANY DIFFERENT OPINIONS
Republican Senator, Talking Before
Southern Protectionists, Declares
Reserve System "EnslavinQ
the People,"

Greensboro, N. C.-Forty-three bill
lion dollars has been lost by TIE peo-
pie of the United States because Of
unnatural deflation forced through"
Senator E. F. Ladd,. republican, Of
North Dakota, declared in an address
before the opening session of the
Southern Tariff Congress.
Basing his figures on recent testi-
mony of John Shelton Williams, for
mer comptroller of the currency, but
not giving Gov. Harding's refutation
Of those figures, Senator Ladd said
the nation "is indebted to Mr.. Will
liams for enlightening it as to the
workings of the federal reserve sys-
te mas now carried out by seven men
who have the power to initiate and
contract without regard to the gov
ernment."
I'VE have recently witnessed the
methods pursued under the guidance
of these uncontrolled guardians of our
money for further enslaving the peo-
pie of our country" the speaker said.
Having inflated the currency until
the dollar is worth about 40 cents,
the government proceeds to borrow
$4,000, 100000 to help pay the ex.
penses of a great world war. The
real value Of these dollars was not to
exceed $4,000, 100000 in the purchas-
ing power under normal conditions
"The same seven men proceeded to
deflate the purchasing power Of the
dollar, and now the government will
have to liquidate that debt; that is
the common people, the real workers
of the land, will pay for the most Of
It on basis representing the value o
$50, 100000 when expressed II
terms Of agricultural products"
Referring to the tariff Senator
Ladd advocated an alliance between
the south and west to prevent the
farmers from becoming the prey Of
the great manufacturing centers.'
The farmer is not justified, he said
"in remaining silent under the treat
ment which affords 10 per cent pro
lection on raw hides and then gives
$50 per cent protection on leather
products, so hidden that the average
person does not know what is the
trouble"
In the Fordney tariff bill, Senator
Ladd said, "a sop is thrown" which,
II accepted, will plunge the farmeres
more deeply into debt than ever be
fore. He said the bill did not afford
adequate protection either to the
stock man, the sheep industry, the
grain grower or to the agricultural
products of the south.

CHAMPIONS FOUND
FOR LEAGUE
GERMANY HOPES COUNCIL WILL
DECIDE ON SlLESiA-FAiR DE-
cISIoN EXPECTED.
CLAIMS BILLIONS LOST
While Some German Papers SEQ Some
Chance Of Further Deadlock, Pre-
vaiIinq Sentiment Is That the
Council Will Be Fair.

Berlin.-With the reference Of the
Upper Silesian dispute to the league
of nations that body for the first time
beginning to find champions in Ger
many. The atmosphere in which tho
league will work is SO different from
that surrounding the supreme council
that much more fair and impartial
decision Is expected from it.
Although the German League So
ciety promptly demands that the
league at Geneva prove itself less one
sided by accepting German testimony,
the majority of reasonable people are
indisposed to force the leagues hands
brusquely, but wait to see II it will
not prove itself unprejudiced.
The Frankfurter sZeitung feels that
il it we're not for the isolation of
France in continental policy, as shown
in the last session of the supreme
council, Germany would have occasion
to fear seeing the Upper Silesian ques-
ton in the hands of the league. But,
the paper says. Frances attitude to-
ward Germany is not shared by Great
Britain, Japan and Italy, so they will
not throw their weight to the side OF
France in the league.
For this reason, even If 1t means q
prolongation of the indecision on the
final fate of the disputed area, the
zeitung, like most German papers,
prefers to see it in the hands of the
league rather than the supreme coun.
| Gil. It expects a broader and mere
| just treatment, less dependent upon
the political exigencies Of the moment
for the Germans have always been
convinced that Premier Lloyd George
and BRAND used the Upper Silesian
dispute in their diplomatic juggling
and that 1t is the victim OF play Of
-French ana British interests.
Theodore Wolff in the Tageblat
says that though the league council
can give only an opinion on Upper ST.
lesia, the real decision is in its hand.
he adds that Germany would get fairel
treatment from the league assembly
explaining his duobts as to the i'm
partiality of the council by saying the
Spanish and Belgian members will fol
low French wishes. Opposed to them
will be the English, Japanese and
Italians. Herr Wolff hopes the Chi
nese will be on the latter side, but
he is not sure. In the end however
he admits, though reluctantly, that the
| league of nations may be just.

DEMANDS OF irish
CAUSES DEADLOCK
LLOYD GEORGE SAYS BRITAIN
STANDS FIRM AND THERE
CAN BE NO COMPROMISE.
RIGHT TO sEcEDE IS DENIED
Eamon Dc Valera Rejects Proposal -
Dominion Rule, Which He Calls
Interference In the Isiand's
Affairs.

LOndon.-EamOn De Valera, leader
of the Irish Republicans, has refuses
to accept the proposals OF rhe Bfitian
government, constituting dominion
government and having as their basis
the bringing about Of peace in Ireland.
He declares that the conditions sOughr
to be imposed constitute interferenc0
In Irish affairs and control which cam
not be permitted.
On the other hand, Lloyd George has
informed De Valera that there can -
no compromise on the question Of tho
right Of Ireland to secede from her al~i
legiance to the King. The Premier
tells De Valera that the conditions o.
the prosposed settlement contain no
desire on the part of Great Britain for
British ascendancy over Ireland or the
impairment of Ireland's national
ideals.
'Our proposals present to the Irish
people," says the Premier. 'an OPP
portunity such as never has dawned IN
their history before. We have made
them in sincere desire to achieve
peace, but beyond them we cannot go. =
Lloyd George leaves open the door
for possible further negotiations with
De Valera by saying that the govern
ment will discuss the application Of thu
principles Of its offer whenever ac-
ceptance Of the principles is commune
| Gated to him.
! simultaneously with the making
| public Of the correspondence between
Lloyd George and De Valera, noto
to the Premier signed BY Sir James
Craig, the Ulster leader, was pub
lished. This note, after declaring that
in the interest Of peace they consented
in the establishment Of Parliament
In Northern Ireland and now are car
rying out their part OF the compact,
\ while the Southern Irishmen have
chosen to repudiate the government
and press Great Britain for wider
powers" it adds, that to join in such
measure would be repugnant to the
people of Northern Ireland.
The note declares that listers ac-
ceptance of an invitation to meet tho
government in conference holds good,
but that no meeting between DE Valera
and Sir James is possible until De VAL
| era recognizes that Northern Ireland
will not submit to any other authority
! than the King and Parliament and
admits "the sanctity of the existing
powers and privileges of the Parlia-
ment and government Of Northern Ires
land"

Premier Personally Will Represent
Quaj D'Orsay,

Washington.-The hope of American
officials that the disarmament confer
ence will be a diplomatic conclave Of
the first order was strengthened when
France informed the state department
that she would send her premier, Aris-

cation of diplomatists.
The French notification came in the
form of message from Premier Bri-
and himself, transmitted through the
American embassy at Paris, saying
merely that the premier would take
pleasure in personally representing
his country at the conference. 1t was
the first formal acceptance to be re-
ceived from any of the invited nations.

highly successful premier Of "The

'If there is any one thing more than
another which has made England what
1t is today it is putney purity"
Although the play was racy y was
not considered, ,indelicate, but this line
