Ludovico Pignatelli d'Aragon
Can Move Hotel Furniture

the chan Of the workmen led Prince

workman, rs good as any the hotel
had moving furniture, il was learned
there to-day, and he earned his s.
per as handily AS any man Oh the
payroll until the day he quit because
his fellow worlCrnen, tactless persons,
belied the democracy Of the country
by chatting him because Of his royal
birth.
The Princes flther-in-law was
anxious 10 have him learn the hotel
business from the ground up, so he
started him in ten days ago TO help
move furniture for his new hotel from
the sidewalk to the upstairs floors.
His Highness came down at 7.3O
regularly, il was stated to-day and
worked with a will that enabled him
to find his way up the stairs with
heavy chairs and tnbles on his hack

learned.

Washington Officials Say EX-

at American Expense.

Germans May Sign Away

WASHINGTON, Jan. 81 Copyright
192D While there in general ap-
proval here Of the idea Of fixing
definitely the sum the Germans must
pay as war reparation, there Is con-
siderable murmuring and indeed DIS
satisfaction over what amounts to an
attempt to make the American people
pay part OF the German Indemnity.
The section OF the Allied proposal
which Is coming in for severe criticism
in Congressional ciPclos Is that which
would levy II per cent. tax on the
exports Of Germany. This means
that the American purchaser of Ger
man goods would have 70 pay the tax
and that the money would - into the
pockets OF the Allies. Indeed the
tlriff experts here calculate that the
~ per cent, tax on German exports
will operate rs n protective tariff
would operate II imposed at this end
it will keep Uut certain German goods
altogether. and will let in other kinds
that must be bought.
But IL viii be with this difference:
When the American Congress imposes
"A protective tariff on foreign goods
the money goes into the American
Treasury and helps pay Government
bills and reduces the amounts that
must be RAISED by direct taxation.
The action OF the Allies in imposing
an export tax simply means that the
American people who buy German
goods win pay the tax 20 the Allies
and thus rullcvc the Germans OF a
pa4, at least, Of their obligation.
SAY TAX WILL RESTRICT THE
GERMAN TRADE
Tariff authorities here insist that
a nat L per cent. tax on exports
is not only unscienHfic but unequal
and discriminatory and win restrict
trade with Germany as we'll rs the
countries which arc reached through
Germany as distributing centre In
middle Europe Anything that re-
stricts trade Is frowned upon because
it is realized here that II Germany

somehow, and she cannot make
money IL her goods arc not sold.

most vital factor of the whole ques-
ton comes in--unless Germany can

RECT THRUST is MADE AT
THE UNITED STATES.

It is pointed out that the European
Allies in their terms have made
direct thrust at the United States
1t precludes the possibility Of a
treaty by which any financial claims
OF America may interfere with the
reparations.
Apart from this definite control OF
GeImany's future financial relations
with the United States, the effect OF
the IL per cent tax on German eX
ports Is being calculated by some ex-
perts as bringing at least 100000. 900
marks worth OF American money into
the Allied treasures while the Allied
will benefit by the dump
ing OF German goods In the United
States.
The terms as sent 10 Germany were
accompanied by a note, which said
Sir: The Allied conferences

BIBLE STUDENTS

International Bible Students What Is the Soul?" will be the sub- ject of the lecture at the Arizona School of Music Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Many attempts have been made to find out just what the soul of man is, some going so far as to weigh a body at the moment of death to see how much a soul weighed. The creeds of all denomi- nations teach us that the soul is something within man that lives on after death, the good souls in a place of bliss and the souls of the bad in place of misery called he'll But what does the bible say in answer to the question, What Is the Soul ?"- what is it composed offs it death proof--can 1t die. Has the teaching that we have received from childhood from our ministers misrepresented the bible? What is the real truth full answer to this question? All the above questions and many more will be made plain by MT. Herrscher at the lecture Sunday. The bible teach- ing will be presented and the ques- tion of what is the soul will be un- derstood as never before by all who attend Those who have been puzzled by the question will find the bible answer reasonable and easy to un- derstand.
