Powerful Wireless Plant on
Pacific Coast.

Portland, Ore, May 21-With
the completion of the Federal Tele-
graph Company's new plant at Hills
boro, Ore, in June, the second high
est powered wireless station on the
Pacific coast will be put into opera
4ion, capable Of transmitting across
the Pacific ocean.
This station will be used primarily
for coastal business, handling COM
mercial messages in competition with
the older wire companies.
An interesting feature of the op-
Grafton of the new plant will be the
direct connection of land wires with
the wireless sent, without break in
the circuit. Messages will be sent by
wire from the company's Office IN
Portland to the station at Hillsboro,
20 miles Distant and the instruments
there will be so arranged that they
will automatically transfer the sig
nails to the wireless. Messages for de-
livery in Portland will be received on
the roof or the building housing the
company's office, thereby making the
presence of telegraph operation at
the station itself unnecessary.
The station will be capable of han
ding eight messages simultaneously,
four coming and four going, accord
ing to the company's officials.
The company's pla5at San Diego,
Cla., which was bull, for the navy
during the war, is the largest on the
Pacific coast, being rated at 300
kilowatts.
The Hillsboro station will be Of
130 kilowatts, with tower 625 feet
in height. The aerial is of umbrella
type and will cover 275 acres.

Palmer Says New York Attorney
Is Aiding Former Clients.
Attorney General Presents Report
Taken from Boy Ed on his Cap
ture by British In Palestine.

Washington-Attorney General Pal.

ing his old clients" in his recent critic
isms of Mr.. Palmer's conduct of the
offices of alien property custodian and
Attorney General.
The Attorney General presented his
charges in a formal statement with
quotations from a report taken from
Captain Boy-Ed, former naval attache
OF the German embassy here, on his
capture by the British in Palestine
and from the diary of Heinrich +. AL.
bert, former chief privy councillor of
the German embassy. The report Of
Captain Boy-Ed as made public by Mr..
Palmer referred to Mr.. Untermyer as
"the unpaid judicial and legal political
adviser of the German embassy" while
DR.. Albert in his diary is quoted as de-.
scribing a meeting brought about for
business reasons at Mr.. Untermyer's
estate at Greystone on the Hudson
river.

and false charges which the friends
of Germany insistently circulated

Allied Powers Reach Agreement
on System of Indemnities
From Germany.
PAYMENTS RUN az YRS.
Proposed Scheme Provides for An.
nuities on a Sliding Scale From
1000, 100000 to 6,0oo,ooo,ooo
Gold Marks.

Paris-Solution of the problem OF
German reparations was reached ten.
tatfvely by the committee of experts
appointed by the Allied supreme coun.
Gil. Confidence was expressed that
the council would approve the solu.
ton.
The proposed scheme provides fol
the payment of annuities on a sliding
scale of from 1000, OO0, 1000 to $780,.
100000 gold marks over a period OF
probably forty-two years and also a
12R per cent ad valorem tax on Ger
mar exports, so that her creditors
will be paid according to Germany's
increasing prosperity.
The sudden ironing out of differ
ences came after two days Of a con.
tinually widening breach that threat.
,ened to break up the conference, il
being virtually suspended except for
private conference. Official French
circles give the Belgian delegation
credit for the success in reconciling
the British and French viewpoints.
Germans to Be Invited.
The project in it's final form, when
approved by the council, will be sub.
mitted to Germany for acceptance as
an agreement outside of Article 233 OF
the peace treaty which entrusts the
reparations commission with the task
of fixing the amount of the indemnity.
Then another conference will be called
to- which the Germans will be invited
The committee of experts was in
session at midnight considering the
question Of shortening the period OF
the payments to thirty years, for
which the treaty of Versailles spe.
officially provided. But it is expected
that the period of forty-two years
finally will be adopted, as the longer
period of payments will make the
task easier for Germany.
BRAND Meets Lloyd George.
Conferences between small groups
of the delegates continued in an effort
to clear up the tangle in the situation
which had arisen. M. BRAND, the
French premier, after leaving the
British premier, Lloyd George, con.
suited with his colleagues of the cab
met and later returned for another
talk with Lloyd George.
Meantime, Lloyd George had re.
.ceived the British and Belgian repre-
%.sentatives on the special Preparations
committee and after some discussion,
these representatives returned to the
session of the committee. After the
consultation with Lloyd George the
members Of the committee seemed
more hopeful. Much of the discussion
bore upon al ad valorem tax of from
10 to Is per cent that it had been pro,
posed Germany should place on ex.
ports.

Germany is Fast Forging Ahead
Despite Heavy Burdens of
Recent War.
FOREIGN TRADE CROWS
All Departments of Public and Private
Life Shows improvement Except
the State Finance, British
Officials Says.

London-In an official report to the
Board of Trade from the British eni-
bassy in Berlin on the industrial and
economic situation in Germany, Secre-
tary Thelwall declared that, reviewing
the last two years, it is impossible not
to be struck by the evidence Of i'm
provements in all departments of pub
exception of state finance.
Germany's chief weakness, he says,
is her inability to arrest the outflow
Of paper money, and if ultimate finan-
cial collapse is to be avoided the ques-
ton arises as to how she can be saved.
The time has passed when an interna-
tional loan or credit would suffice.
Secretary Thelwell thinks that
though it still shows sign of weak
ness the governments authority has
steadily increased and that the Social
lists are a greater element of strength
outside than inside the cabinet.
"It is impossible not to admire the
skill with which traders and manufac-
turers have not only survived the try
ing times, violent fluctuations and dis
turbances, but have done good bust
ness despite Them" continues the re-
port. "The outstanding feature in
1920 was the establishment of COM
bines and cooperation with foreign
groups of capitalists.
Syndicates Grow.
1.-THE inclination to create syndi-
Gates, already marked before the war,
has during the past two years spread
to every branch of industry and trade,
while the great banks are not only
participating in these transactions, but
are busy opening up new branches.
The motive of this is the development
of mutual assistance and strength to
face the heavy increase in commercial
trading risks"
Remarking that it is impossible to
estimate the extent to which Germany
is restoring foreign trade while she
refuses to publish official trade figures,
the report says:
ut cannot be doubted that German
competition will be found and must be
reckoned with from South America to
Japan, there being ample neutral and
Allied shipping to carry it.
Production Costs Low.
Moreover Germany starts with the
initial advantage of lower cost of pro.
duction as compared with other Euro.
pean goods"
In conclusion he considers that Ger.
man trade and industry are sound in
themselves if national bankruptcy can
be avoided.

PEACE HOPES BLASTED
Sim Feiners Say Leaders Resig.
nation Ends Movement.
DeVaIera Is Reported in Dublin as An.
%nouncfng Ireland's Demands
on Britain.

Dublin-The resignation Of Roger N.
Sweetman from the Irish Republican
parliament recently was declared
by prominent Sim Fem leaders to
mark the end of the movement look.
ing toward a peaceful settlement of
the Anglo-Irish dispute. The move
ment was initiated by right wing
Sim Feiners and other supporters of
1reland's campaign for independence.
Mr.. Sweetman and Father Michael
O'F1anagan, the latter acting president
OF the Sim Fem, participated conspi,
cuously in the peace activities. 1t was
Mr.. Sweetman who proposed early in
December a conference between the
English Labor commission visiting
Ireland and the Irish Labor party to
effect a truce in Ireland.
Mr.. Sweetman's resignation, which
is creating a big stir in Dublin, was
the result Of what he termed a radical
disagreement with the majority of my
fellow members on vital matters OF
policy"
Coincident with word of Sweetman's
action report that President De Valera
had outlined Ireland's peace terms
were rife here in connection with re-
port in some quarters that the head of
the Irish Republic" had not left Dub.
lin as press dispatches have stated.
According to these reports De Valera
said the first step toward peace would
be for Great Britain to acknowledge
1reland's right to independence.
