situation has arisen here regarding

cision of the Council Of the League OF
Nations, which was TO have been an
nounced to-day. may not be known
before Thursday. il then. The trouble
is that the great Powers already have
the decision, but have refused to allow
their representatives on the Council
to approve IL until certain changes are
made.
This action has brought bitter conn
nlent from the other members OF the
Council 1t is reported that one MEM
Der of the Council, representing a nom
Europesn State, threatened to wash
his hands Of the whole affair and in
sisted that if the Powers We're going
to act in this manner he was through
trying to settle European affairs. His
colleagues by dint OF great persuasion
got him to modify his attitude and to
continue to attend the meetings which
appear to be merely for the purpose OF
marking time on the part OF the Coun-
c1l while the Powers carry on their
secret conversations over the solution
which has been proposed. Meanwhile

How unexpected the present state Of

fact that all members of the council.

Gagged travelling reservations for Mon
day night, which they are compelled 10
cancel.
II appears that the non-perniancnt
members-Spain, Belgium. Brazil and
China-after sessions lasting several
weeks. reached a decision early last
week which was put in draft form. This
was communicated unofficially to the

changes in the Sforza line but proposes
the Appointment OF a commission of three

WrrssApEN. Oct S.-The Franco-Gef-
man reparation agreement serves as the
first practical step toward an economic
understanding between these two coun-
tries. Hans Kraemer a prominent Ger
man manufacturer and vicc-president OF
the National Economic Council declared
TO THE New York HERALD correspond
ent here to-day.
THE terms OF the agreement are those
which German industry has accepted
and is ready To fulfill" he added.
The entire German press comments
favorably on the agreement. The only
discordant note is sounded in National
ist circles, where it is feared that the
Germans have conceded too much, ana
by the Communists, who gee capitalist
intrigue" in all agreements
Hugo Stinnes's newspapers predict
that as a resul, of the agreement specu-
.ation on the floor OF the Berlin Stock
Exchange will be checked. as II was IN
augurated with the heavy foreign Sc
curIty purchases made by the Govern
ment to meet The reparation payments
The SHINES newspapers also declare
that the agreement should assure steady
orders for German industry, with the re-
sultant prosperity.
Among the clauses of the agreement
which attract particular attention here
is the ore which provides that Ger
many engages TO deliver TO France upon
her demand all machinery and materials
which would be compatible with the pos
sibilities OF production in Germany and
subject to her limitations as 20 supplies
of raw materials" Attention is directed
to this provision chiefly because OF the
fact that Germany will have to buy
these raw materials In the world mar
kets with paper marks. These payments
in kind of course viii take the place of
gold deliveries for reparation.
On the other hand, the agreement
gives to German manufacturers their
first opportunity to ship manufactured
wares into the French market to an
amount OF 1000, 100000 marks in gold
In five years. \ further advantage Is
that French prices will be taken as the
scale for determining the cost OF these
goods. These French prices are much
higher than the inland German prices.
The situation thus created here is
looked upon most hopefully az contain
ing probabilities of boom" in the
building and machine industries. which
have been hard hit during the business

PUT MUCH FAITH IN ACORN
In England II 10 Looked Upon a
Protector Against Lightning, and
~ Love Charm.

From Druidlcal times the acorn has
been held to be a sure protection
against lightning. as the tops Of many
flagstaffs, the end Of cornice poles
umbrella tassels and blindc0rds still
attest. Even to this day, In English
rural districts, when a thunderstorm
threatens, farm-Iaborers and others
will HE them to the nearest oak tree,
gather an acorn and carry 1t about
with them till the sky clears. In many
parts Of Great Britain a girl Tilted by
her lover will seek by the light Of the
moon for dried acorn beneath an
oak tree. This she will burn at mid.
night In a candle fame, reciting mean.
while the following doggerel: ""Tis not
this acorn would burn, but my true
loves heart that I would turn. May
he no Joy nor profit see, till he comes
back again to me-" Welsh peasants
hold that to plant an acorn brings
lifelong good luck; simple way, one
would imagine, to insure ones future
success. The resultant sapllng, how.
ever, must on no account be trans.
planted. If this Is done. most terrible
things are bound to happen.
