ALLIES AGREE ON
HUN PREPARATIONS

The allied supreme council to-day
approved the German reparations
plan drafted by it's special committee
last night.
The plan provides for the payment
by Germany of 226, 900 gold
marks in AZ annual installments on
rising scale beginning with pay
mcnts of 2,00O,0O0,000 marks the
first two years and in addition the
payment of II per cent tax On Ger
man exports.
The plan was signed by the coun-
Gil members this evening. The Ger
man disarmament agreement also
was signed. The council likewise
approved a plan for a 200, 100000
franc corporation to aid Austria.
The council agreed to forego pay
ments for reparations and other
debts from Austria in order to en-
able her the better to negotiate for
outside aid
The plan will be communicated to
the Germans in few days and they
will be invited to a conference on
Feb. 28 to consider the terms.
In the meantime the Brussels
council of economic experts will re-
sumo its sessions Feb. IT. The pen
alties provided in the reparations
plans are in general the same as un-
der the treaty of Versailles, includ-
ing both military and economic
measures.
The report of the military COM
mittee in disarmament of Germany
also has been virtually approved by
the council. 1t provides for the
complete disarmament of so-called
civic guard organizations. The dis
bandment must be completed by
July l next.
Examination of the reparations
plan showed it provided that the IL
per cent tax on German exports
would extend over the same period
as the stipulated reparation pay
mcnts made in advance.
The total CT 226, 100000, 900 gold
marks of German reputation pay
ments called for by the plan would
equal approximately $56,000,00O,000
at normal exchange rates.

JUDGE LINDSEY IN
FOR BREACH OF LAW
Loses Contempt Case in the Supreme
Court.

Denver, Colo, Jan. 31.-Juvenile
Judge Ben Lindsey, of Denver, must
pay $500 fine for contempt of court
or go to Jail. The United States Su-
preme Court Monday dismissed his
appeal from the decision of the Colo
RADIO Supreme Court, which had sus-
tanned the action of District Judge
Perry in fining Judge Lindsey $500
for refusing to testify in the famous
Wright murder lease.
INDICATES JAIL TERM.
The action of the highest court in
the United States means that unless
he pays the fine he must serve it out
in the county Jail. He indicated that
he will go to Jail.
On June 3, 1916, during the trial
of Bertha Wright, charged with the
murder of her husband, John A.
Wright, Judge Lindsey was called to
tho witness stand by District Attor-
ney Rush and asked to tell the jury
of a conversation he had had with
Neal Wright, 12year-old son of the
accused. He refused point blank,
contending that the conversation was
privileged and that he could not
honorably divulge it.
Neal Wright, just before the trial
had made an affidavit stating that he
and not his mother fired the shot
which killed Wright. District At
torney Rush insisted upon Judge
Lindsey testffying. 1t was his theory
that Mrs. Wright had fired the fatal
shot and that Neal Wright had SO
told Judge Lindsey.

sey guilty of contempt of court and
