The reparations tangle has become
diplomatic contest, having been In
turn political, economic and financial.
That is the view of leading authorities
here.
The mission to Berlin. headed by Sir
John Bradbury, the British member
of the Preparations Commission. for
example, is OF nature far more
diplomatic than economic. as Ger
manys capacity, to pay has been ex-
haustively examined by the commit
tee of guarantees. What Sir John does
when he sees Chancellor Wirth to-
morrow will be to give him chance
to propose an alternative scheme to
sidetrack Poincare's so-called produc-
tive guarantees. The majority of the
reparations commissioners consider
that these guarantees would not be
productive to the extent OF counter
balancing the loss they would involve.
If DR.. Wirth can offer an alternative
that the members of the Reparations
Commission find capable of producing
more money than those OF Poincare, they
would then be in a position to effect a
compromise between French views and
Anglo Belgo- Italian objections. Also,
once more they would gain time which
is desired by the Tar sighted-permitting
a future meeting on scale of payments,
to study the whole problem again in it's
relation to interallied debts Members
OF the commission are inclined to COM
plain that independence is supposed to
be accorded them by the treaty. and are
rather resentfu OF NJ Poincares effort
to bring pressure upon them through the
French delegate.
They hold that the commission is

MANY business men talk of
the day when they will retire.
Yet very few actually do it.
They find they can't let go
absolutely right now-next
year maybe, but not now.
They want the business
they have worked SO hard to
build, to 90 on. They are
afraid "the boys" are not quite
ready to take the reins.
And often they are right.
The head of a business can lay
down policies and judgments
for forty years, and the forty
first year someone in his COM
pany asks. him what to do
about some matter that was
thought to be as settled as the
alphabet.
This sort of thing happens

Seniority II the Key.
The seniority dispute must be decided
before the strike can be settled. * the
roads still insist that the strikers must
sacrifice their seniority rights and re-
turn to work as new men the shopmen
say they will gain nothing by making
peace. because they can go back to work
on that basis at any time.
They hope the moderate group of rail-
executives will overrule the mo surren-
DER element led by Gen. Atterbury OF
the Pennsylvania. Loree of the Della
ware and Hudson, Pearson of the New
Haven and other Fasteners. These men
may be outvoted but they certainly
will not give in. They denied Saturday
the rumor that there is to be a gentle
mans agreement whereby a secret
clause will cover the seniority point.
Seniority has been n barrier to peace
in previous railroad strikes, but in most
cases the men who went on strike lost
their rights when final settlement came.
The New Haven Railroad produced
records from the general strike of 1877
to the outlaw strike of switchmen in
1920 which showed in sixteen cases
the men returned with entire loss OF
seniority.

The very pressure Of public

CHINAMAN WHO STRUCK
 FILIPINO GIRL TO GO
 FREE ON POINT OF LAW

Manila. Dec IA Chinese passen- ger who struck little Filipino girl while 10th were aboard the steamship President Taft probably will go scot free because of a matter of jurisd4c- tior.
 When the vessel arrived in Mania the authorities were notified and made an investigation
 The incident is said to have actu- ally occurred when the vessel was in Shanghai, China, so the authorities declared it would be necessary to transport both the Chinese and the little girl, together with witnesses, back to the Oh nese city
 Under existing laws this is virtually. impossible, SC there is small chance of the Chinaman being tried for the offense.

DUSTING DEMONSTRATIONS
Meetings to he Held al Waterloo and
In YOungS Township.

County Agent c. H. Vaughan has an
nounced two boil weevi busting dem
onstrations TO be held this week The
first one is to be held at Waterloo
Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock. The
other one is to be held on II. G.. Harris
place in Youngs township Friday af-
ternoon at 4 o'clock.
The demonstration on the place of
Mn j. B. Cook last Friday afternoon
was attended by between 300 and 400
farmers, including about 70 farmers
from Spartanburg county.
Mr. Vaughan invites all farmers in
the vicinity to attend the two meetings
the latter part Of this week.
Mr. Vaughn states that he finds that
the plan Of holding dusting dcmonstra-
tions at various points in the county
is the best plan for him to follow at
this time and that he will not be able
to fill requests for individual calls un-
til the rush Of the boil wecvil cam
paign is over. For that reason he says
that he hopes that the farmers will at
tend the demonstrations when adver-
tised.
