Out in Perry City, Okla. Congress
man Manuel Herricks knows every
streets road, lane. and COW trail.
But down here In Washington,
where parks are ever presenting
themselves in places where streets
should run, it's a different PROPOSE
ton.
That's what Congressman Herrick
thought when he entered police
headquarters at night and asked
Lieut.. J. 1. Plemmon for his bear

The Cons FRESHMAN was directed,
but did not leave police headquarters

one Of the four to work on Monday,
one Tuesday, one Wednesday. and
one Thursday.
Then on Saturday he notifies the

LONDON, March 23.-Secretary
Hughes note firmly asserting Ameri.
cas- right to priority payment from
German indemnity for the upkeep of
the American army Of occupation on
the Rhine was characterized by
Downing street officials today as
lust but inopportune."
It is authoritatively stated that
Great Britain win formally recog-
nize Americas claims. Officials
pointed out that they realize the
United States Is entitled to the
money, but the understanding is
that Washington will not press for
immediate payment IL this reeogni-
ton is granted.
The belief prevalent here is that
the chief aim of the American Gov.
eminent now is to get the allies to
admit that it's claim for the cost of
keeping up the American occupa-
tional forces Is legal and just.
