GERMAN DEBT
DUE SLASHED
DOWN THIRD
May Not Take Up Plan
for Moratorium Until
Future Is More Secure.

Paris. July 11.-(Ry The Associated
Press. THE reparations commission
Tuesday decided TO relieve the German
crisis to the extent of reducing the
monthly installment of 10000, 900 gold
marks due next Saturday on the sched-
ule of payment, to 32000.O00 gold
marks. Germany had announced her
Willingness to pay the whole amount
but the commission ruled that in view
of the crisis the smaller figure was all
that would be required
Gets Credit for Dyes
Credit to the amount of 1O6. .oOO. 600
gold marks was given TO Germany on
her reparations account for deliveries
of dye stuffs made during the last few
months to the Textile Alliance of
America for the allies. and also for
deliveries of coal which had been made
to Luxembourg at the request of the
allied governments. These credits
were due Germany for some time and
the officials thought the time oppor-
tune to allow them, in view of German
difficulties.
The members of the reparations
commission spent all day discussing
the German crisis. DR. Fischer and
Herr Schroeder conferred with the
members Tuesday morning and had an
other talk with NJ. Dubois, president
of the commission, in the course of
which the German representatives re-
iterated their country's inability to
meet cash payments after July
Expect German Request Today
The commission is expecting to re
ceive formal request from Germany
for moratorium in some form, Wed
nesday; indications Tuesday night were
that the German note would ask that
Germany be relieved of all remaining
payments this year.
Roland X. Boyden is keeping in close
touch with the developments in order
to advise Washington, 1t was said Tues
day evening in certain reparations CIR
rles that there was disposition to
take no action on the German request
Tor a moratorium. but rather await
possible political developments in Ger
many Those who take this view say
hat the fall of the present German
government would make any decision
low reached of little or no value.

when we build roads in Louisiana
we will not build political roads. The
roads of this state will be built be
cause they are needed and because
we intend to work out plans that

we are going to be big enough t.
complete it."
Do it now. Make that your rule
of life and success will be assured
Many of the failures in the business
world are caused by short sighted
ness and procrastination. Putting it
off until tomorrow means that ir
many cases it is never done, and it
is the things that are not done that
cause the receipts to dwindle until :;
business is eventually wrecked. 1t j.
just as easy to do it today as it is
to put it off until the last minute. L
is far more pleasant and decidedly
more satisfactory. The world is full
of physical and commercial wrecks
The man who is a physical has-been
couldn't go to the doctor in time
and the fellow who is down at the
heels financially depended upon
tomorrow that never comes. Do il
now.
Why cuss the warm weather? Th.
Lord made it, and what is goot
enough for Him ought to be good
enough for us. If we didn't have the
warm weather with its bright sun
shine we wouldn't have any crops tc
feed us, and if we didn't have any
feed we wouldn't long be here, am
If we were not here we would miss
