Don't Spoil Your Hair
BY Washing It'll

When you wash your hair. be careful
what you use. Most soaps and pre-
pared shampoos contain too much
alkali. which is very injurious. as 1t
dries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle
The best thing TO use is Mulsif1ed
cocoanut oil shampoo. for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap
and beats anything else all TO pieces.
You can get Mulsified at any drug
store. and a few ounces will last the
whole family for months
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub !; in, about a teaspoonfui is
all that IS required. II makes an

with bitter argument The Germans say the
heavy Allied reparation demands were respon-
sible. France and some other nations which
support her, plainly charge that German bad
faith has been the cause involving a syste-
matte ruin Of the mark, with an idea Of cscap-
ing the payment Of just debts.
That Germany has worked herself into
curious and dangerous situation is now beyond
doubt One years installment of reparations

10000, 100000 paper marks
Assuming that the mark is about three
inches in length and reckoning that the sum
total of an annual payment might be fashioned
into tape, this tape would wind around the
world some fourteen thousand times. It would
reach out almost one third of the distance to

Cash payments applying to rcparations paia
by Berlin directly and indirectly up to and in
Guiding July Is, 1922, amounted to only s4Os,-
$4,000.
As the Germans were allowed to pay in
goods as well as cash and receive credit for
property turned over to the Allies, It will be
seen further that their performance up to
1922 was, however, no cause for alarm in Eu-
ropean creditor circles.
During 1920 and 1921 Germany supplied
goods (coal, wood and materials and requisites
for the devastated Iegions) to the total gold
value Of s699,s53,50O. During this time she
had paid directly and indirectly in equivalent
of gold cash the total of $296,043o00. To the
foregoing the Allies credited Berlin with an
additional $62s,os5,5oo, being the value Of
German state properties in territories Ger

view of Frances desire to rebuild her devas-
tated regions quickly. The Allies decided that
Belgium should have her share of reparations
in cash; first, because of her heroic work in
1914 and her subsequent losses. The prior
ity stipulation was about s500000,000, and
until she receives this France gets no actual
cash for reparations. France has built her
government budget on the supposition. Of heay-
ier cash payments from Germany, and if Ger
many defaults-as she has already done to
some extent French finances will reach pre-
carious state France, the greatest loser of the
war, has thus far received in actual cash only
about $3,5OO,000 from Germany, this to COM
pensate her for costs Of her Rhineland occu-
patton.
Comparatively speaking, ali went well with
Germany's part in reparations until 1922. But
the current year has seen the sitn atioa evolved
into something like chaos. Germany has con-
stantly impressed upon her debtors her in
ability to meet cash payments.

them in 1919?
The tctalgof German payments Of all kinds
during 1920 and 1921, therefore, amounted
sto 621,964 ,000 However, ssthe actual cash
involved was only s2s6, ,o43,O00. it was used
to pay portion Of the costs of the Allied

this machinery was the Allied Supreme Coun-

Council--took the matter in hand and de-
cided that until the formal statement had
been received from Berlin Germany must

Up to March % Germany had paid s7o,4S7,-

German statement promised by Rathenau, and,
acting upon it, decided that partial mora
torium should be granted. This moratorium
absolved Germany Of responsibility to pay the
original schedule of s75ooo0.ooo during the
year, but it prescribed that Germany might
cut down the figure to $3.50 o,Ooo,0 900 in cash and
Ss62,500, 900 in goods (coal, wood, building ma

May GiUe Consent


Germany's plea of July 10, however, for
moratorium for cash payments over 1928 ana
1924, ia addition to the last four months Of
1922, failed. Thus, unless some general set
tlenert Of the whole reparation problem Is
made before January, 1928, she must begin to
assume her annual obligation Of s750, ,000, 900.
France takes the stand that she will be will

Germany was called upon to Fay certain costs.
