BANKRUPTCY PLOT
Plan to Thwart Scheme to
Dodge Payment Of Repara-
tons Instalment.

Paris. Sept. 20.
Forced bankruptcy on the part of
Germany will not be accepted by France
as an excuse for non-payment OF the
reparations instalments due on Novem-
Der 10 and January Is. THE New
YORK HESALD correspondent here was
informed in reliable financial circles to-
day that French experts are studying
scheme that will embrace demand
thai the German Government hand over
to the French Government a certain per-
centage OF the capital stock of every
German concern which has back OF it
real estate or material reserves.
The steady depreciation in the value
OF the mark has been attracting the
attention Of the French Ministry of For
eign Affairs and nnanciers for month,
and the opinion is almost universal here
that Berlin is deliberately aiding the
NEAR bankruptcy movement in order
to reduce gold values. 1t was said here
that while Germany's next payment is
estimated at 300,000.000 marks there is
still some question whether this is cal
culated on gold or a paper basis.
Therefore If the value of the mark de-
preciates Germany's payment. If made in
gold. would be considerably less than II
on the basis of the exchange rate of,
say, two months ago.
While this would enable Berlin to
save perhaps % per cent. on the inn
mediate reparations requirements, in the
long run it would not affect her indebt-
edness, as under the Preparations Com
missions system of bookkeeping all
payments are credited on the basis OF
comparison of the American dollar with
the prevailing rate OF the mark.

that various members of the British
Cabinet are OF the opinion that there Is
nothing in the communication to prevent
the proposed conference. This certainly
appears to be the belief held by the
London public and press. and the com

communication is causing there. The

leading role, for. to mention only a few
accounts where the dispute in this field
is likely TO be bitter, there is the ques-
tion of whether Ireland is responsible
for any part OF Great Britain's share
Of the world war debt, the question Of
who is responsible for Ireland's own
war damages and such things as the
burning of Cork and the burning of the
Dublin Custom House.
Then there Is the question of whether
HE overtaxation of Ireland. which Great
Britain admitted ten years ago, has
been wiped out, and what Irelands =
financial contribution to imperial ex-
penses should be. Connected with this
is the delicate problem of how the dis
parity in taxation on the two islands
may work to the outrageous favor of
ireland. The last mentioned question
will surely result in bringing up the
Ulster problem.
Finances aside, all the parties to the
irish dispute except those fanatical Bel
fast partisans on both sides who can
not restrain shooting seem agreeable
to let the Ulster question lie dormant
until some disposition 10 solve itself
appears Finances in the two parts or
ireland are sure to raise this in acute
form, however. and may force an effort
TO solve the problem before the ground.
eGlbttered by long prejudices, can be
sweetened by little time and under
standing.
1T is certain that, in addition to these
clements, the British delegation will
have a tough time coming to any agree
ment which tends to impose greater
financial burdens upon the present
staggering weight the British taxpayers
are carrying

AMERICA WINS.

America has regained the interna- t.onal polo trophy by defeating Great Britain for the second time.
 Polo is not a poor mans game. The ownership of the polo ponies, obtain ed and retained at considerable ex- pense because of their value in sport Is pot for the man of even moderate means. -
 But the poor man and the man of moderate means are big enough to be have so ably represented this coun- try which belongs to the rich and poor alike. All. rich and poor. of the leisure or of the working class. will join in the satisfaction gained from another proof of the superiority oi our country in the field of contest.
 Strength. quickness. courage and determination-all the manly quail ties are required to excel in this branch of sport.
 These qualities are possessed by Americans in all walks of life, to a greater or less degree. The men who represented America in these inter. national matches are as ready to rec ognize such characteristics possessed by thoso who are not familiar with that sport, as are the latter to give praise where praise is due.
 The bringing back of this trophy should and will be a cause of pleas ure to all good Americans

tical1y impossible to do this during
 later hours of the day. n The resolution adopted by the Common Council indicates most of the places where these lines will be placed. but, as a precaution against the human characteristic of not be- ing able to provide for every enlerg- ency. and recognizing the fact that after practical working of the plan it may be found that crossing places arc needed at points not mentioned in the resolution, that resolution provides
 also that white lines may be placed
 at such points deemed by tho police department to be necessary. Already it is startlingly evident that there is need for white lines where Court street joins Main.
 A safe passageway is needed at this point as much as at any other in the city.
 The resolution omits mention of this needed crossing. There must be a passage here at the place where cars stop and remain sometimes for some minutes. A person must be made to feel safe in crossing to the aisle of safety between the ropes there and from that aisle of safety to the east side of Main street.
 At present there are no white lines
 between the north and south end of
 the busy portion of Main street about
 tho center. It would be ridiculous to require persons to walk to either of these points from a department store. for instance. in order to cross the street safely.
 It may be asserted with confidence that the police department will con- slider this fact as coming within the general power given it under the res olution. The lines will be placed to accommodate people at this point Meanwhile, remember about Rome and New Britain.

The none too secluded screens of those bushes and and trees furnish their only dressing and un- dressing places. So eager are they to get into the water that they cannot resist stopping in the first fairly wen protected spot and throw off their clothing-the little girls and the lit- tie lads.
 Places should be ready for them to dress and updress where their sense of modesty may not be blunted. It is an imposition upon the inno- cence of childhood to allow this situa- tion. to exist longer. It is a crime against the purity, unstained, which birth.
 And something should be done to- morrow!
 No longer should it be said that New Britain allows her children to bare their nakedness where a chance passer-by may see.
 1t would be almost as great a crime to take from these children this chance-perhaps the only chance they will have throughout the long, hot summer-to gain daily an hour of happiness in the water. That is out of tho question. What is to be done :?
 For years the park commissioners have been advocating the building of pretty shelter at the North end of the. pool. Every effort should be made to put this plan into execution. The structure would be a shelter from the rain or sun for those who watched. It would add to rather than mar the beauty of the spot.
 Underneath this shelter, hidden from sight on the northern slope, would be comfort stations and sep arate places where the boys and girls could get ready for the water.
 This plan must eventually be adopt ed. and a beginning of its execution should be carried out at the first possible moment. But it seems it cannot bc dono now-finances!

 But something must be done-done as quickly as the proper authority to spend a few dollars may be obtained.

Fattening Hogs Fall Of
fBv Associated Press)

Frankfort. KY, Sept. l6-Only
five Kentucky counties had as
many hogs for fattening on Sep

date last year according toii"ure
compiled by the United States
Bureau of Markets and Crop Es-
IN cooperation with State
Commissioner Of Agriculture w.

were Morgan. Pike, Ednonson,
McCreary. and Union and all re-
ported 100 per cent but none
showed an increase.
The state as whole showed a
decrease of five per cent in the
total Of hogs for fattening. These
figures are estimates sent TO the
United States Crop Statlstlcian
and the State Department by far
mers and correspondents through
out the state.
The greatest decrease is shown
by Butler county which reported
only so per cent as many hogs rs
the year before.
