eral pacification of Europe. with the
exception OF Russia. 1t In delighted.
too, over the first French hint OF the
acceptability of a reduction in the rep
arations total.
The man in the street. however, was
stung quickly by NJ. Poincare's hints
that England got the better Of France
on war store prices and that her motiVe
in entering the war was less disinter-
ested than that Of America. This phase
of Poincare's note. according to Of
ficials. is not unwelcome. however. for
It will only strengthen MT. Lloyd
Georges hand In dealing with France
by making it politically easier for him
to threaten a break and actually carry
out a break IL no settlement Is reached.
The American declaration that the
time is not ripe for the United States
to enter a debt conference is taken here
TO mean that Washington will await
the results OF the next conference,
though il is hoped that 1t will be repre-
sented by duly accredited envoy, even

LONDON, Sept 2 ASSOCIATED Press).-
The French reply to the Balfour note
reached London so late last night that
only a few Of this mornings newspapers
find the opportunity TO comment upon II.
I'VE gladly recognize" says the
Times, that the reply indicates fresh
movement in the French mind in a gen.
timely constructive direction. and this
movement must be warmly encouraged
on the British side.
The real difficulty of the French po-
sition must be fully recognized, and the
British Government, instead OF thwart-
ing cooperation by such measures as the
Balfour note and maintaining mega
tive attitude in relation to reparations
must set itself firmly to make Germany
pay what she can pay.
1T is obvious that through the err
rors and dissensions of the Allies. Ger

which makes 1t more difficult than ever
to devise measures to insure payment Of
her debts
The Daily Chronicle does not pin too
much hope on the participation OF
America, which Gov. Cox so strongly
urges" adding, however: But Ameri-
can financiers will have much to say

demanded measures against the impor-

The trade unions followed the Gov
ernment's appeal to urge German work
ers not to strike during the crisis. but
they have gone further and have OBJ
tanned the consent of workers to work
overtime in the Ruhr coal region. where
the radical agitation and opposition to
long hours are most intense.
Only the Nationalists and the Com
munists. the two extremes. are seeking
to exploit the present crisis. The Com
inunists are starting a cheap bread agi-
tation. They also attack the Versailles
Treaty by saying. Let the capitalists

are opposing every German effort to
reach an understanding with the Allies
But these radical groups represent 4
small minority. Observers agree that
the outlook in Germany will become
grave only when hunger and unemploy-

are prolonged. All eyes are turned tc
the outcome of the rcparations question,
because there rests the only hope CT
stabilizing the mark and returning tc

derful when you take II off.
A lot Of men have trouble get.
ting the part in the right place.
one guy has opened a school and
makes It business Of training
toupees. r...
He also keeps open in the eve
ming and II you can't spare your
hair in the day time you can
send it to night school.
They make these wigs square,
round and oblong so that nobody
will have any trouble getting ono
to fit his head. .....s
Some of these toupees cost as
much as seventy-five dollars, and
others cost three bucks.
A man can spend whatever he
figures his head Is worth, but the
average wig is so cheap nowadays
that no man has to keep his hat
on any more when he eats in q
erstaurant.
Besides being q covering for
your head they also make rice
rugs to put in front of the fire
place.
OF course, when they wear out
you have to buy a new one, but
one guy was so dumb he used
three bottles of hair tonic on his
toupee before he realized what he
was doing.
II your whole head Is bald and
you don't want TO spend any money
for wig. you can buy q cardboard
pattern and stencil one OF them
on with some paint and then in.
stead of getting a hair cut all you
need is a rag and some gasoline.
A mans strength lies in his hair.
