This flat declaration OF the States
policy in dealing with the situation In
the Monroe gas district was made
Monday by Governor Parker to Reid
l.. Carr OF New York. representative
OF the carbon black interests at
conference I'm the executive office.
Governor Parker also announced
that the Constitutional convention
would not be asked. as far as his in
divdual views are concerned, to 20
any further than to adopt an article
empowering the Legislature and the
Conservation Department to handle
the conservation of gas in any manner
that may be deemed best in the public
interests An enabling article of that
sort, the governor said. would give the
State ample authority to exercise its
police power in regulating the con
sumption of gas or to prohibit the use
Of gas in any way that might be
Classed as wasteful.
The governor told Mr.. Carr that he
had been informed on what he CON
sidered reliable authority that there Is
no chance to get gas piped from the
Monroe field to the populous centers
In the State unless the carbon black
companies are materially restricted in
the consumption OF gas. Official re-
ports showed. ha. aaid-- that the. CAR
bon black companies are consuming
over 100000 cubic feet of gas per
day. The governor considered this ex-
cessive and was OF the opinion that
Il should be curtailed within reason
able limits, otherwise, he said, the
gas fields are liable to be destroyed
Mr. Carr said the carbon companies
did not wish to destroy the field, and
insisted that they stood ready to CO.
operate i'm the distribution OF gas
through pipe lines. The carbon in
terests, he said, had organized the
Louisiana Gas Distributing Company
for building a pipe line TO Alexandria
and other places in the State. He
said the carbon black companies were
the pioneers In developing the Mon

that II would be dangerous to close the

GERMANY INFORMED
MUST PAY ALLIES
Informal Exchanges Made
Between American and
Ieutonic Governments

Observation-Disclosures of the In
formal exchanges between the Ger
man and American governments re-
gardlng reparations, in which the
united States holds Germany NOR
ally bound to make reparatiOns, so far
as may be possible" were made pub
Tic Monday at the state department.
Describing the German communi-
cation as an "unequivocal expression"
OF the recognition of that obligation,
the American reply expresses the hope
That renewed negotiations which Ger
many says 1t plans to initiate may
lead 10 a prompt settlement which
VIII, at the same time, satisfy the
just claims of the allies and permit
Germany hopefully to renew its pro-
ductive activities"
Included in the German communi-
cation is the suggestion that the only
solution of the reparation problem is
in an international loan, in favor OF
which the allied and associated pow.
ers would waive the general mort
gage on German assets created by the
treaty of Versailles. In this connec-
ton the German government says. 1T
would not be unwilling to assume the
obligation of the interest and the
amortization Of the foreign debts of
the allied and associated powers, with
in the limit of her capacity"
Germany invites the examination
"by unbiased experts of it's own abil-
ity to make payment" and says she
stands ready to meet any proposal
which appears feasible "for the solu-
ton of the economic and financial
problems of Europe"
The American reply makes no ref
erence either to the proposed cOnsoli-
dation of allied debts as German obi
cation or the suggestion for the de-
termination by unbiased experts OF the
ability of Germany to pay.
Another consideration with regard
to reparations presented by Germany
is that of the rehabilitation of dew
astated regions. The German govern
ment saws L stev s-ready to, offer
ri ance gook efffres -an,. -Is-ources in
whatever form is acceptable. 1t as
serts that for the immediate rehabili-
tation Of the devastated regions 1t has
repeatedly proffered labor, technical
advice and material assistance, but
that these offers have not been &C.

PLANNING FOR The
CARE OF VETERANS
Creation of Service Admins
ton for Relief, Chief
of Plans.

Washingt0n.-Seven specific recon-
creation of tho veterans service ad
ministratiOn to take entire charge OF
government relief work among ex-
service men and to be headed by a
director general. responsible directly
TO the president, were contained in the
report submitted Thursday to Presi-
dent Harding by his special c0mmiG-
sion investigating the care OF veter-
ans.
Charles G.. Dawes. Chicago, chair
man of the commission, told the presi-
dent that he believed the recommends
tions would prove "A satisfactory sotu-
tion OF the troubles in the administra-
ton of soldier relief. Early action by
President Harding on the report Is cx-
pected. One recommendation provides
for the new agency and gives 1t juris-
diction over the bureau Of war risk
insurance. the rehabilitation division of
the federal board for vocational educa-
ton and such part of the public
health service as may be necessary
to care properly for disabled veterans.
II also asks that director general as
sumo charge of the new agency with
full authority to obtain necessary IA
ciIities when those already available
prove inadequate.
Another recommendation Is that
4 -, o..
rotary Mellon of the treasury shall is
sue orders to the heads of the public
health and war risk bureaus, authoriZ-
ing the latter bureau to take charge OF
sonnet engaged in providing medical
care for the veterans, The effect
would be to consolidate these bureaus,
under one head by executive order
without waiting for congress to act or
risk delay from that cause.
The next recommendation provides
for an immediate extension and util-
izatioR of all government hospital IA
cilities together with such mobliza-
ton of civilian medical services as
may prove practical.
An immediate and continuous hospi- !
tai building program is asked In a
which suggests that
Secretary MELONS committee recently
appointed to report on sites for new
hospitals be directed to report con-
corning the type and locations of the
required buildings. II adds that ap-
should be made available
by the congress which convenes next
Monday.
The sixth calls for erection of hui
influences to impress the
sick and wounded with the fact that
The nation Is entirely concerned In
their welfare and rehabilitation.
The last asks immediate use of the
slS,600,000 appropriated by the last
for new hospitals.
