Sill LVERT0A DRAIN PIPE.
CAUSES SECOND LAWSUIT

The drain pipe across lot No. II
in Browns addition to the city OF
Silverton, which took great
amount of the courts time in q
lawsuit about a year ago, has for
the second time made its bow In
court.
This time the trouble is be-
tween L. G. Eastman and G. F
Heisley. Eastman wants the drain
pipe, which runs from the Heisley
hospital, lowered 10 feet so thai
he can build natatorium on the
lot, and alleges tnat Heisley has
refused to comply with his re-
quest, though he has become own
er of the property since the first
lawsuit.
By the the Heisley refusal t.
lower the drain pipe Eastman al
leges that he has been damaged tC
the extent of $500 through the
loss of time in getting his nata-
torium underway.

COAST LEAGUE TO
OPEN ON TUESDAY

San Francisco, April 8. - On
four western ball lots, the Pacific
Coast baseball league tomorrow
will open its 1922 season, which
officials have predicted will be
the greatest pennant race ever
staged In the minor league. In the
opening games Seattle plays at
San Francisco, Oakland at Sacra-
mento, Portland at Los Angeles
and Vernon at Salt Lake, and re-
ports received here indicate that
capacity crowds will jam every
park. In San Francisco the ad-
vance seat sale is the greatest In
the local clubs history. In Sacra-
mento half holiday has been de-
clared; in Los Angeles the Sunday
exhibition games alone have been
drawing 10000 and in Salt Lake
interest Is 80 great that one or
ganization has invited Judge X.
M. Lands, baseball commissioner,
to pitch the first ball
President w. H. Mccarthy OF
the league says he expects the sea
son to be the greatest in the clubs
history. Competition will be keen
among the ball players, he thinks,
because this year, the league, for
the first time, has created a fund
of 100000 to be distributed to
the seven leading clubs. The club
finishing first will get $4,000, the
second place club $4,000, third
place $4,000. fourth $25O0, fifth
$4,000. sixth $500 and seventh
$1,000.

LLOYD GEORGE
ASKS SUPPORT
OF GENOA PLAN

London, April 3.--tBy Associ
ated Press. Prime Ministe
Lloyd George appeared in thu
house of commons today for th'
first time since February 2S u
ask from the house an expression
Of confidence In the policy Of the
government toward the Genoa
economic conference. He wai
greeted with cheers from the gov
ernment benches.
Mr.. Lloyd George said his reso-
luton gave the house an oppor-
tunity Of approving or disapprov-
ing the objects OF the Genoa con-
ference and the make up OF the
Genoa delegation and that II the
resolution were defeated 1t would
be equivalent to a vote OF no con-
fidence in the government.
Amendment Opposed.
The prime minister said the Of
fetal opposition amendment
changed not the object, but the
scope OF the conference. He did
not believe such body as the
Genoa conference could properly
consider the revision OF existing
treaties, even in the event this
was desirable.
The trouble In Europe had been
attributed largely to the repara-
tions exacted by the treaties, said
Mr.. Lloyd George, but the treaties
did not create the reparations.
Their creation was due to the fact
that there was something to e-
pair. II the treaty Of Versailles
were altered, lie declared, II
would only transfer the burden
from Germany to France.
Mr.. Lloyd-George said there
were two considerations in deal
ing with the problem OF repara-
tlons. The first was that II the
payments were insisted upon be-
yond the power of the war
exhausted country, crisis would
be preclpitated which would not
be confined to Germany. The
second was that Germany's ulti-
mate per capita capacity to pay
must not be Judged by present ca
pacity, when In common with the
rest OF Europe she was struggling
TO recover from the exhaustion OF
the war.
Warning Is Sounded.
Neither OF these considerations
could properly be judged at Ge-
noa. They ought to be Judged by
the machinery OF the treaty,
which was very elastic. France,
he forecast, could not forego the
right to have an adjudication in
accordance with the treaty's con
dition.
Defending the idea OF the con-
ference the prime minister said he
had been told that the coalition
was dying.
Perhaps ! may have the privi-
lege Of dying minister to give
up my last word OF advice he re-
marked. Il do not know who will
succeed us, but would like to ut
ter a word OF kindly warning.
Whoever succeeds us will find
IL impossible In the present Ftate
Of Europe to go ON without con-
ferences. The world is so battered.
bruised and crushed that the cure
will be a slow one and will need
many consultations of its leading
physicians.
One OF the most essential prob
lens to be dealt with, continued
Mr.. Lloyd-George was the restora-

tion Of the machinery Of interna-
tional trade. He adduced some
figures on this trade, pointing out
