The Visit of Rene Viviani

The real object of the visit of Rene Vivian
former premier of France to the United States
has provoked much speculation.
Some observers of diplomatic affairs say it is
a mere act of courtesy, without political fnan-
eal meaning if it is formal visit which he
will pay to President Harding and Secretary of
State Hughes
Some influential newspapers in France and
the United States however, see in his trip to the
United States the opening of consultations be-
tween the French foreign office and Washington
regarding the treaty of peace and other topics
closely related to it. Il
M. Viviani may have many important SUBJ
jects about which he wishes to sound out the
standpoint of the new administration. It is held
in some quarters that France is not sincere in it's
advocacy of the league of nations, and favors an
alliance of Great Britain, the United States and
France, in which England and America, with
their fleets, would support the French dominance
on the continent. NJ Viviani may breach this
subject.
1t is apparent that his informal conferences
with the American leaders will touch on the Yer
sailes treaty, the objections of the Americans to
the league of nations, the proposed association of
nations, and the French stand on the repara-
tions question.
A Qualification of the real French attitude
may follow the Visit OF M. V1Vlanl, as PRESIDENT
Harding and Secretary Hughes will meet him
with open mind and disposition to give
a sympathetic hearing to his presentation of the
French cause.
The policies of France have been criticized in
all the allied countries and the United States in
quarters where it is believed that she is trying
to build up military machine, which, co-operat-
ing with Poland from the east, will make her the
dominating power the continent. Her I'M
flinching stand on the reparations question has
been interpreted in this light. NJ Viviani will
have opportunity of discussing the French view
point on European policies to the American lead
ers, who will outline and determine the American
policy. II
Coming as an official representative of the
French government, M. Viviani will be able to
present the official views of his people to
public which for many generations has been its
warm friend. And, on the other hand, President
Harding and his advisers, by reason Of the many
conferences which they have held with Ameri-
cans who have studied the European situation,
will be able to indicate how we feel on the momen-
tous issues that still remain as heritage of the

MILK HUCKSTERS
MAY BE STARTED
Employers Claim They Are Distributing
75 Per Cent of New York'S
Milk Supply.

NEW YORK, Nov. THE milk huck-
ster may take his place along with the
vegetable and ice cream pedler in New
York if plans of the milk conference
board, the employers organization, are
carried out
Board members favor such a scheme
of milk distribution, it was announced
yesterday after meeting held to discuss
plans fer the resumption of wagon de-
livery in connection with the strike OF
drivers and wagon statesmen. One COM
pany, it was stated, operated $50 wagons
in the experiment.
Under the proposed plan, distributing
companies would operate retail route
wagons and trucks to give housewives an
opportunity to purchase fresh milk
bottled or loose, at the doors of their
homes. This would eliminate the indi-
vidual family delivery. Exception would
be made, it was said, in case of invalids
and others especially entitled to per-
sonal delivery.
The board announced that the city dis
trbution of milk had returned to APP
proximately 70 per cent. normal since the
beginning of the strike last week.
Health Commissioner Copeland de-
clared last night that the distributors
grossly exaggerated their claim of fur
nishing from 20 to so per cent of the
normal milk supply. Investigators of
his department had informed him, he
said that only 55 per cent of the normal
supply was being made available.

Adoption by the government of pro-

ton of the governments willingness to

Dernburg wants MORATORIUM.

BERLIN. Nov. 7.-Dr Bernhard Dern-
burg, who has held the post of finance
minister, discusses the German economic
situation in the Tageblatt and outlines a
plan which. he declares, is the only way
to save Germany from financial ruin and
the rest of the world from wage slavery
and business instability His plan en-
braces the following points:
First-That the United States grant the
entente powers additional time on its
credits and advance loans to the central
powers for the purchase of raw materials.
Second-The declaration of ,10-year
mora atorium on German reparations.
Third-Arrangeme of Germany's in
ternal financial problems.
Fourthz-ProtectiOn of German money
held i'm foreign countries
Fifth-Immediat reduction of the cost
of occupation of German territory.
Sixth-Expert examination of Ger
many's ability to pay and the establish
ment of her rights under Article 234 of
the peace treaty.
The StabiizatiOn of the mark is impOs-
sible, says DIR. Dernburg. so long as
"reparations are being paid by printing
presses" He estimates that taxes in Ger
many amount to 22.000 marks yearly per
family, of which 5000 is for internal ex-
penSes.

METCALF SECURES
2OO-POUND BUCK
Trophy i'm Newfane Several
Inches of Snow Last Night.

Hunters lined the woods of Wndham
county today. each in the hope of secur-
ing his antlered trophy, but - to ,
o clock the only report of success received
at The Reformer Office was from George
A. Aetcalf of South Main street, who
shot fve-point 200-pound buck at $50
o'clock on a hill near the Dutton farm
on the so-called Stratton hill road in the
town of Newfane.
A larger number Of the hunters than
usual came from outside the state. Town
Clerk G. :. Hopkins already having issued
"a nonresident hunting Licenses as com
pared with 43 nonresident licenses for the
entire season of 1920. Sixteen of the
number were issued Saturday and four
were issued this morning. The supply
of hunting license blanks was exhausted
and certificates now are being issued
until additional blanks are received.
Between - and 100 resident hunting
licenses We're issued Saturday by Town
Clerk Hopkins and dozen or more were
issued this morning. Nearly as many
resident hunting licenses already have
been issued as were issued in the whole
season last year.
Town CLERK Hopkins said he had issued
40 combination hunting and fishing
licenses this year 50 far compared with
760 during the entire season last year
Straight hunting licenses issued thus far
this season total 30S as compared with
$50 throughout the season last year
Fishing licenses this year, however, total
many more than last year, the figures
showing issuance of 653 against 446 in
1920. This decided increase was brought
about by the new law requiring women to
secure fishing license OF the total fish
ing licenses issued this year $40 We're to
non-reSidents. while 37S were issued last
year to non-residents.
Ii is estimated by the town clerk that
he has sent to the secretary of state $3.50
more than last year, due in large measure
to the large number of fishing licenses
issued to women and the new law which
provides that nonresident must pay
$3.50 for a fishing license whether or not
he has secured a license In his home
state. Heretofore reciprocal licenses have
been issued for 81
The snow which fell last night is favors
able for the hunters. enabling them to
track deer. About FIVE inches fell in some
of the West River valley towns.
