GERMANY GETS
TIME To MAKE
1922PAYMENTS
Preparations Commits
sion Accepts Belgian
Compromise.

Paris, Aug. 31.-(By The Associ-
ated Press.)-The reparations COM
mission late Thursday unanimously
accepted the Belgian compromise on
the German moratorium proposition.
NJ. Dubois, the French member of
the commission, voted with his col
leagues after a long interview between
sessions with Premier Poincare.
The commission rejected the mo-
ton of Sir John Bradbury Of England
Cor a moratorium without further
guarantees. England alone voted for
the motion. France and Belgium
voted against it and Italy abstained
from voting.
The commission accepted last min
ute proposals of the German govern
ment providing for deliveries of coal
and wood in 1929 under contracts
for delivery to be made under an ar
rangement between the German gov
eminent and leading industrials, in
Guiding Hugo SHINES.
The acceptance of the new pro-
posals by France would remove the
threat of a separate military action IN
the Ruhr. Premier Poincare through
out the negotiations has indicated that
q failure of the allied powers TO come
to an agreement on the German terms
would result in further occupation OF
the Rhine territory by French forces,
and though the possibility of such ac-
ton still remains, it is regarded as
removed from the realm of p%ossiblil-
! ties by Thursdays tentative agree
meDt.
Under this plan brought forward by
VI. Delacroix, the Belgian member OF
| the commission, Belgium, in lieu OF the
coming cash payments from Germany
this year TO which she is entitled un.
der a priority agreement, would ac.
cent treasury bills from the German
government payable in six months.
These bills would total more thar
250, 000, 900 gold marks, and Germany
would offer further guarantees fol
| their redemption when due.
Premier Poincare accepted the de
cision of the Preparations committee IL
favor of the Belgian compromise OF
the German r~eparations question after
the Belgian government had assured
| him that the arrangement was yer.
satisfactory. :.
The premier's approval was condi
tional upon a German gold deposi
sufficient to guarantee the d~eferret
payments involved in the Belgian plan
This was said to have been assured
The solution arrived at, although
not technically a moratorium, has tn
same effect as a moratorium, in tha
Germany is relieved of cash pay
ments for the remainder of 1922 witt
the provision that the payments du
in 1923 would be discussed and decide
later in the year.

Edge-Stitcher and RuffIer At
tachment Makes Work
Much Easier.

Would you like to increase your
efficiency in sewing by one-third?
Would you be glad to accomplish
that much more work in an hour
or day and do II expertly?
That is what the electric sew
ing machine means in the home,
declares a housewife who Is enthu.
siastic about her new possession.
MY sewing woman has done
fully one-third more work for me
In a week with the new machine" !"
she stated, and moreover, she
tells me that now after spending
a day at our house, she goes home
fresh. without any OF the dragged
out feeling she usually has at the
end OF a day. It's such a relief
not TO be obliged to keep up with
that continual pedalling."
You can make a street dress by
electricity" in one day, or house
dress in a morning. With the
clever five stitch" ruffler, you can
ruffle a yard Of material in less
than a minute. an operation which
would take fifteen minutes by hand.
In making a silk dress with a
pointed tunic and drop skirt. the
needle sews altogether twenty one
and one.sixth Yards Of seams max
ing the French seams in one oper'
alton with the edge-stitcher at
tachment. 1t takes twenty-eight
stitches per inch. when working
in silk. and so this must contain
a total of 1886 stitches. made
with 421a yards of thread! The
electric machine does all this from
four to five hours. 1t sews a
yard OF seam. without basting, in
| minute and quarter. In q
! half hour, II one Is sewing fairly
steadily, allowing five minutes for
occasional stopping to change ma

| tween twenty and thirty yards OF
, seam.
When sewing on the foot power
machine, q woman makes at least
| fifty treadle strokes per minute, or
twelve hundred in a half hour. In
making this silk dress. she is &C
tuaIly sewing on the electric ma
chine about three hours and

this would take her. as computed
from actual observation. four hours
and ten minutes OF pumping. In
other words, electricity takes the
place Of $500 strokes OF the treadle
| in making this one dress-a very
considerable saving OF woman 6
strength.
With such an instrument at her
command. the housewife is able
to turn out good-looking clothes
! easily which she formerly thought
she must buy ready made. She
can combine the speed and preci'

Small Electric Fan
Most Suitable for
Homes

The small fans are the most
generally useful for homes. They
can be carried anywhere and
may be used even while you
are sleeping. Carried into the
kitchen during the morning work
hours, the small fan set upon
the window ledge will eliminate
all steam and cooking odors and
enable the housewife to do her
work in comfort even during
the hottest days. II can be set
upon the floor or upon a chair to
air out closets. a very necessary
thing in summer when clothing
is liable to retain perspiration.
1t may be run at low speed all
night to keep the air in the bed
room fresh and cool without
disturbing your sleep.
The cost OF operating a fan
Is very light compared with the
comfort 1t gives. The twelve.
inch size will run several hours
for a cent. II can be run al
most continuously during the
hottest months in the year at
the cost of a couple OF nut sun.
,daes per month. A ride on the
street car or five minutes tele.
phone gossip costs as much as
your fan for two or three days
in torrid weather.
While fans differ in quality,
and while some cost almost twice
as much to operate as others,
they all give comfort and refresh.
ment at a very low cost. The
electric fan is an aid to health,
II increases vitality. II insres
restful sleep even on the hottest
night. 1t maintains your vigor
for work and gives added zest to
your play. 1t is. any way you
figure it, the cheapest and most
healthful form of summer re-
freshment.

WASHER PROVES
USEFULNESS IN
I SUMMER TIME
Electric Device Lightens
Housework by MAXIM
Laundry Simple.
II you've been contemplating the
purchase OF a washing machine,

II you've been contemplating the
purchase OF a washing machine,
summer is the time to buy.
In any family with children,
the weekly washing is nearly
doubled during the summer months.
With this increased washing on
the one hand and with physical
effort more fatiguing than during
any other season. electric washing
and ironing machines bring their
owner maximum Of comfort.
Let the youngsters wallow In
mud pies and play to their hearts
content. After little bodies are
grimy and tired and rompers very
much bedraggled, a Tubing and
a nap and a clean frock will set
them right. The children will be
happier and healthier II they can
play without heed to their clothes.
And in a home with electric laun-
dry equipment. innumerable fresh
dresses require no laborious effort
on mothers part.
Use all the fresh napery you
like to make table service more
attractive, for jaded summer ap-
petites respond appreciatively to
such daintiness. The average wash
ing machine can take care OF eight
table cloths in fifteen minutes.
while napkins literally go through
the ironing machine lickity-split.
