Allies Fail to Agree on Terms
To Be Offered Germany
At Proposed Conference
OPPOSE MILITARY ACTION
Suggestion That U. S. Cancel

LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE
meeting of Allied premiers,
which assembled here to draw
up a program for the Brussels
economic conference, collapsed
today under the strain of
working out an indemnity So
luton, although progress was
made toward settlement of the
inter-Allied debt question.
Chief causes Of the breakdown
Of the conference were:
The German reparstions
proposals, which were said to
be inadequate.
2-France's insistence upon
seizure Of the German indus
trial belt in the Rhineland, the
Ruhr coal fields and German
state-owned forests and control
of German customs.
UNABLE TO AGREE
THE premiers were unable to
reach an agreement" said Premier
Poincare. OF France. in q commun-
ique issued at French headquarters
tonight. "The conferees win meet
again tomorrow.
THE meetings of the premiers
have been most cordial. Great
Britain and France made definite
advances toward settlement Of the
inter-Allied debt question. The
Balfour note (which had notified
the European Allies that Britain
must collect from them to pay her
debt to the United states) no longer
stands as the basis Of British
policy. There 10 now great pros
poets OF the European nations set
Ting debt policy between them
selves irrespective Of the debts
owing by them to the United
States"
BRITISH COMMUNIQUE. e.
A brief British communique made
no mention Of another meeting in
Paris, but said that the Brla.sels
conference had been postponed.
The tentative date for the Brus-
sells parley was December l6.
The British communique said:
The Brussels meeting win be
held early in January. The Ger
man proposals have been unani-
mously rejected. The conference
has adjourned TO permit further
study OF the problems in hand
VICTORY FOR FRANCE.
The decision OF the British Cabi-
net at it's meeting this afternoon
before the premiers reconvened. to
reject the German proposals. was a
decided victory for Premier Poin-
care, Of France. The Cabinet was
confronted with two courses:
1-Agree with France and Italy
that the German suggestions were
not adequate.
a-Continue the old Lloyd
George policy Of moderation 10

some of the national wealth, in
eluding these items: "65. 5.000,-
900 acres of coal lands; $780,
900 acres of petroleum lands;
100000 acres of oil shale,
and 100000 acres containing

Is within easy reach of people.

the money taken in, all those

men that they kept all the
year round, because the farms
won't pay the men.
Ask the mayor of Freehold,

wouldn't pay for digging and

THE HIGH COST OF DIS
TRIBUTION is the trouble
with this country. The re-
ward is too small for the
man that produces; the cost is
too high for the man that con-
sumes; a profit TOO BIG goes
to the men between the two.
ONCE WE WERE moaning
" about a "billion-dollar Con-
gress." 1t meant that the gov
,ernment of the United States
then would spend one billion
dollars in two years, not one
year.
We have passed that primitive
stage. On Friday next the
United States Treasury will pay
out one thousand million dollars
in one day. The payment will
include s700,000,000 for victory
notes. War is expensive. But
keeping out of it, by keeping
ready for it, need not be ex-
pensivs.

An UNHAPPY WOMAN was

and buried in an ash pit months

discovered, was buried on Sun
day 10000 jammed the streets ut

coffin be opened that they
might look upon and sympa-
thize with the horrid remains of
the poor victim.

Others DO NOT expect great

still far apart The farmer wants
labor for as little pay as pos
sible and as high a price as
possible for farm products. The
laborer wants wages as high as
possible and the smallest possi-
bic price for farm products.

CLOGCED INDUSTRIAL MACHINE

DEVISED figures of the National In
~ dustrial Conference Board show
that about 1880, 900 persons are idle in
the United States as direct result of
strikes. This alone represents loss of
about 10000, 900 man hours of work
day. And each day the present situa
tion continues the larger becomes the
number thrown into involuntary idle
ness. Add to the number of idle re-
ferred to, the number who are without
work for reasons other than strike
and we have tremendous Gripping of
our industrial forces.
Wealth is created only by labor and
at time when the nation should be ac-
cumulating wealth to make up for that
destroyed during the war, we find con-
ditions the very reverse of what they
should be. And yet history shows that
all this is the aftermath of wars. The
period of readjustment is usually long
and painful. The greater the shock the
longer the time for recovery. Coupled
with this dead loss are acute develop
ments associated with the strikes
Things have an ugly look in Illinois,
due to the railway strike, which threat
ems to become an industrial war on a
large scale, and unless the coal miners
and operators get together in response
to what is virtually a Command from
President Harding, our industrial ma.
chinery will continue to move as if
clogged.
The nation has been faced with great
problems, and the nation shows ne
particularly strong and effective way Of
getting out of the wilderness. Why i.
this ? No one seems to be able t.
answer. We spend millions in eff
cheney, on training men for their differ
ent vocations, we boast of making goot
and yet there is shocking economi
loss through strikes. We, go along
with the rapidity of an old OK cart. il
trying to reach a solution of thes
problems. The trouble is that selfish
ness sticks out prominently when ther
is an effort to get together. VISION
lacking at conferences, and until W
get vision we shall wallow along in tn
same old way. .-Morning News.
