ENGAGE COUNCIL ON
WAR ANNIVERSARY
Silesia, Near East, Repa.
ratiOns and War Debts
On Carpet.

PARIS, July 25.-The 4th Of Aug
ust, seventh anniversary of Great
Britain's entrance into the war, Will
find France, Belgium. Italy and Eng
land seated around the table at the
supreme council meeting, still de-
batting the problems arising out Of
the treaty of peace signed at Ver-
sailles.
The great question before the
council, of course, is the necessity
of arriving at some decision con-
oerning Upper Silesia, over which
France and Great Britain have been
split asunder for months, and which
holds more potential difficulties
than any phase Of the postwar sit
uatfon.
Faces Many Problems.
But in addition to the Silesian
problem. the allied council is faced
with other questions, principal
among which are settlement Of the
Graeco-Turkish imbroglio, includ-
ing disposition of the Dardanelles;
trial Of the war guilty by Germany,
which France considers a farce.
Belgium's priority claims to repa-
rations: extension of allied aid to
Austria and Russia; the war debts
of the allied nations, and other vi
tai phases Of the work OF restoring
peace to Europe.
France still maintains she must
send relnforcements into Upper si-
lesia. but that they will not go
forward until after the meeting of
the supreme council. She is un-
willing TO expose her troops to risk
of being overpowered by Gen, Hoe
fer's forces. and Furthermore wants
| to utilize the report of her experts
TO the supreme council as a basis
for her demand that her other allies
| Join in the movement.
France objects 10 Program.
The Upper silesian program,
which seems most likely, to he
adopted, has been evolved -by Sir
Harold Stuart and Col visconti
British and Italian commissioners
1t envisages giving to GERMANY ana
Poland those respective territories
which are incontestably theirs, and
leaving the remainder under control
OF the allied troops until the su-
preme council aliots the TERRITORY
TO one or the other of the contest.
ants
inns proposal has been rejected
once by the council of ambassadors
but changed conditions In Upper
siiesia augur better success at this
time.
TIE French are uneasy over re-
ports that this program will he
carried out. since it would place
the Germans in a strategic position
by which they could attack the Al

rendered regarding the disputed
area. and they fear that the SUI

partment.

FLOOD FAILS

LtvEE REPAIRS
Dam At Southside Water.
works Withstands Pres
sure OF Swift Current

Work of the United States army
engineers in Pueblo has not been in
vain. The new portion of the flood
levee on West Fourth street and the
southside waterworks diversion dam
remained unchanged against the on
slaught of high waters of Tuesday
night, 1t was announced yesterday by
Colonel Caples, in charge of the work
of the army engineers in this city.
The'only damage done to work of the
engineers was the sweeping away of a
$4,000 extension bridge, constructed
could be run out and dumped in the
river as a base for the dam.
The reconstructed portion of the
west Fourth street levee consists of
an eight foot wide automobile drive
way from the Fourth street bridge
to the Martin street crossing. The
base of the drive has been so con-
structed as to be $50 feet wide, The
entire length of the levee rip-rap has
been used with heavy Stag facing.
Colonel Caples states he will re-
construct the extension bridge at the
southside water plant so work fof
strengthening the diversion dam may
be completed. A week will be re-
quired to finish this work. it is said
DR.. w. Il. Buck, city physician
stated yesterday that he had made
tests of the water in the south side
and north side reservoirs and that he
considered the water safe for all
domestic uses.

and other changes which would make
for simplifcation in determining taxes.
The extent to which the law is TO
be rewritten by the committee remains
to be determined but il the suggeS-
lions made by treasury experts are fol-
lowed the old bill will be largely re-
written.
This probably would delay its pre-
senation to the house considerably be-
yond the time heretofore expected.
Chairman Fordney and other mem
beers emphasize the magnitude of the
task before them of reaching an agree
ment. and they say it is proposed to
go very carefully into all phases of the
subject
Apparently the members now are
somewhat far apart as to the actual
amount of taxes to be raised. 1t has
been estimated that the present law
will yield approximately s3,7oo.0oo,o 900
this fiscal year. but revisions sug-
gested would reduce this total.
All members of the committee are
not yet satisfied that this can be done
with safety.
