NEW YORK. May 7.-Bernard NJ Baruch, who was economic adviser of the American Peace Commission today gave the following explanation of the allies reparations demands or the Germans:
 The supreme council of the allies according to cable dispatches. sent an ultimatum 10 Germany demanding payment or 132.00O. 900 coo gold marks
 Lest this be confused with previ. opsly reported demands, seemingly higher, 1t should be understood that this sum-$33 900. 900 .O0O-is the bin of damages which the allies demand.
 TO it must be added the S3,OOO,- 00o000 due May l. and still unpaid.
 The previous proposal of the all lies for gross sum of $54.0OO. 0OO.- coo represented payments extending over 42 years. which if discounted at 5 per cent interest would represent 9 present value of $21.0O0. .O0O, ,OOO-or at 6 per cent, of S1S.O .OOO. 900.
 These figures Of course. are ap- proNimated.
 'lf you took the present going rates of fnterest-S1-2 per cent which countries like England and Franee would have to pay. the s54.- 0O0,001.000 would represent a present value Of only slS.5OO, 900 900.
 "Of course no country could raise such d sum at any rate or interest,"

is debt of honor, then the justice that we owe our soldier boys, who made such great sacrifices on the field of battle. is indeed debt of tri pie honor and should be met before any other single obligation, If emergency funds are needed, how about the money that the people con. tributed to the various war charities That money was given primarily for : the aid and relief ,of our soldier boys. If any considerable amount of 1t re. mains unexpended today, why not use 1t for rendering relief msassres for our disabled vetefans?
 Memorials are all right and have no objections to them, provided other and more important obligations have been met. Let US do immediate and ample justice to The crippled and dis abled soldiers of our nation and we will have erected a monument and memorial of justice that will outshine and outlfve any other kind of memo rial that it is possible for human hands to construct
 am grateful to The Review for this opportunity to make this appeal and especially and most emphaticaliy would l urge every mother-whether she had son in the great war or not ito use every opportunity and every ounce of energy at her command to urge and demand immediate justice for our disabled soldiers.

BARUCH EXPLAINS WHAT ALLIES
 DEMAND FROM GERMANY F0R WAR

1 the money markets of the world couldn't stand it.
 The subsequent German offer of S12060 100000. if it bore interest at the rate of s l-2 per cent, instead of per cent, as suggested. by Germany, would have been within 10 per cent of the original $54.OOO. 900 900 de mands made by the allies--if you didn't take into consideration the IF l-2 Der cent export tax.
 "The German $l2OOO. 900 900 offer at per cent interest, however. would have a present value of only S7,59O.. GOO. OO0.
 Remember that the $54 GOO. 900 900 demanded would not be collected in full for 42 years.
 If you add per cent interest, plus amortization, the present S3S,- O0O.000.0O0 demanded will amount to a much larger sum in 42 years.
 Tt must be remembered that the S33, ,000. .0G0 900 demanded is the pres ent value of the repsrations and, of course. includes what the allies ex- pected to get by the export taH-in fact a totality Of their demands without interest. and is sl2. ,o00,- 900 more than the present value of the S54,0OO 0OO, 900 demand"

 1 know of no question facing the American people today that is so com pletely deserving of an immediate set tlement as that of rendering justice to our American boys who have be- come physically disabled as the result of their service and sacrifices in the great war.
 When our country entered the war and the call came for volunteers, and later when the selective draft went into effect, the boys and young men of this country were ready and will ing to make any sacrifice to serve their nation and the cause of the al. lies.
 We cheered them and patted them on their backs as they marched away

Farmers persist in circulating rum

Water has been running from the

in the ditch permitted the water to
flow back into the river. because the
entire ditch was not ready The
ditch is now ready for the water. but
the water must be increased as the
dried up ditch banks and the large
wooden fumes soak up. AS soon as
the soaking process is complete, water
is assured for everybody under the ir-
rigation system.
