IN FORMAL GERMAN
NOTE TO COMMISSION
fRv Associated Press

PARIS, July 12.-The German rep
resentatives today submitted to the
reparations commission a formal note,
requesting a moratorium on repara.
tions payments for the remainder of
the present year The note stated
that the 100000 gold marks due on
Saturday were available if the COM
mission insisted on this payment, but
recommended that it also be waived.
The German request did not specify
an extension of this moratorium
throughout the next two. as had been
forecast in some quarters, but urged
the commission to consider Germany's
condition and make public as soon as
possible a complete plan for her re-
lief
The commission will hold special
meeting probably this afternoon to
discuss the German note, the text Of

DIRECTS
MAIL Interference
NOT Be TOLERATED
fRv Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, July II. = With
continued reports of interference with
mail trains by railroad strikers reach
ing the postoffice department in the
last "a hours, President Harding has
issued a proclamation directing all
persons to refrain from all interfer-
ence with the lawful efforts to main
tain interstate transportation and the
carrying of the United States mails.
Drawn up after the railroad strike
situation, with particular reference to
reports of interference by strikers
with train operations had been dis
cussed at length at yesterdays cabinet
meeting, the presidential proclamation
invited the cooperation of all public
authorities, state and municipal and
the laid of all good citizens to up
hold the laws and to facilitate those
operations in safety which are essen
tial to life and liberty and the security
of property and other common public
welfare"
THE peaceful settlement of contro-
versies between shop craft employees
and carriers in accordance with law
and due respect for the established
agencies of such settlement are essen
tial to the security and well-being of
our people" the proclamation stated
and added that men who choose to
work under the terms of the labor
boards decision which led to the walk
out have the same indisputable right

LONDON, July 12-The best In
formed American opinion in London
inclines to the view that the state of
affairs in Europe is generally tending
toward betterment notwithstanding the
ominous situation in Germany and the
economic chaos in Russia. This is
based mainly on multiplying signs
that European statesmen are realizing
that Secretary Hughes meant what he
said when he declined their invitation
to go to Genoa and plainly told them
that they must clean house before
America can usefully cooperate"
Slow acceptance of this fact is seen
by American official observers here in
recent utterances by the French pre-
mier Poincare, who is believed to be
cautiously feeling his Way toward the
Germany and Russia taken sometime
ago by Premier Lloyd George.
NJ. Poincare was given a powerful
lever with which he may be able to
bulge the French public from their
Search Germany's pockets" attitude
when the franc began following the
mark on its downward path.
See Clever Design.
NJ. Poincare's recent statements are
interpreted here as being carefully
designed to keep the make Germany
pay" slogan in order to disarm his
political opponents, but at the same
time calculated to point out the dan
gers of too intransigeant a policy as
indicated by the depreciation of the
franc.

High Government Officials
Declare Mine Union Off
cials, Soft Coal Operators
Seeking to Learn Attitude.
CRISIS IS THREATENED
(By Associated Press)


WASHINGTON, July 12.-High gov
ernment officials declared today that
IN their opinion the United Mine
Workers officials and the bituminous
coal operators were delaying and
evading action on President Hard
ing's plan for arbitration on the coal
strike in an effort to ascertain wheth-
er public opinion will permit re-
lection of the settlement proposal
These officials declared that in the
meantime a serious situation was
likely to develop in the matter of
public coal supply
This was particularly true, it was
added, because of the enga cement of
the railroads serving non-union terri
tories, where output is continuing. and
officials said they saw some ind;ca-
ton that special efforts were being
made by striking railroad workers to
tie up strategic outlets from the non
union mining districts, lying south of
the Ohio.
The anthracite operators were un
derstood to be prepared to respond to-
day to President Hardings proposals
for arbitration to end the suspension
of work in the unionized coal mining
areas. Previous proposals for arbtra-
tion at the hands of the president by
the anthracite employers afforded the
only indication of the probable nature
of their reply.
Several inconclusive sessions of the
bituminous operators now here result
ed in an adjournment of further meet
ings yesterday until Sunday, after A.
NJ. Ogle, chairman of the operators
group and president of the National
Coal association and a delegated COM
mittee of the operators had conferred
with President Harding on various
phases of his arbitration proposal
brought up in the operators confer
ences. Later Mr.. Ogle said the oper-
ators felt they must give the proposal
further consideration and would have
!, to take time for that
Await Meeting
The union officials today were still
awaiting the meeting of the full policy
committee of the United Mine Work
ers here Saturday before formulating
a reply, and there were intimations
that delay might be expected in tha,
quarter also.
Meanwhile it was evident that neith-
| er side regarded the arbitration sug-
gestion as outlined with entire ap-
| proval Among the operators the pro-
posals for temporary continuance of
the old wage scale and for national ar
bitration instead of district arbitration
met with disfavor, while on the union
| side the issue was raised as to what
areas would be included in the arbitra-
ton scope. This results from the fact
| that since the strike some fields have
! changed from a union to a non-union
basis, while some former non-union
| territory has been more or less closed

WASHINGTON, July 12.-Investiga-
tion by the special federal war frauds
grand jury of the sale of hundreds OF
German dye patents by the alien prop
erty custodian in 1919 to the Chemical
Foundation. Inc. is expected to be
carried on concurrently with other i'm
portant cases already taken up by the
grand jury, it was said today
The dye patent sale case, which
was opened yesterday with the ap-
pearance of Francis p Garvan, Gus
todian when the sale was consum-
mated, and now president of the pur-
chasing company, was declared au-
thoritatively to be the first step in n
sweeping inquiry into the entire his
tory of the custodian's office since its
inception.
Mr. Garvan, refusing to open the
records of the company to Assistant
Attorney General Grim as representa-
tive of the department of justice, said
he had offered the entire record to
the grand jury. His charge that Ger
manic influence" was behind the
move to force the return of the patent
to the government brought a formal
denial from Attorney General Daugh-
erty and a statement that every
American interest in those holdings
would be protected.

PARAMOUNT ISSUES
OF STATE POLITICAL
CAMPAIGN UNCERTAIN
fsnecial to The Palladium


INDIANAPOLIS, July 12.-Political
leaders of both parties in Indiana are
wondering what the paramount issues
Of the fall campaign will be. Gen
orally on the eve Of an important
campaign the leading issues have been
case this year.
Both Republican and Democratic
politicians expect the tariff to be the
diana campaign, it is quite probable
that the Democrats will try to make it
so. They profess to see in it great
possibilities for embarrassing the Re-
publicans. But reports from all parts
of the state indicate a general apathy
toward the tariff on the part of the
public, Notwithstanding the fact that
it has been under debate in congress
for over year.
In the event the tariff law is en-
acted before the elections in Novem-
Der, which now appears to be a Ger.
tainty, leaders of both parties expect
it to become factor in the senatorial
and congressional contests. If in its
final form the new tariff act provides
extremely high protection, the tariff
will, undoubtedly, become the import
ant national issue in Indiana.
State for Protection
Indiana is a protectionist state, bul
in 1912 it repudiated the Payne-Ald
rich tariff act, which went to the ex
tremes of protection.
The tariff bill now in the making
seemed to meet with the Indiana idea
on protection, but the senate has beer
busily engaged since the bill was re
ported to that body last March, max

FUNDING OF BRITISH
WAR DEBT TO u. s.
TALKED IN ENGLAND
(By Associated Press


LONDON, July 1.-THE question of
funding the British war debt to the
United States, reported to be under
consideration by the British govern
ment, is given prominence by the
newspapers.
Overtures for the funding of the
debt were made by the United States
some time ago according to the Times,
accompanied by an invitation to a
conference in Washington. The Daily
Mail asserts that important communi-
cations are passing between the two
governments, adding that a British
mission will leave soon for the United
States to discuss the question and
while there, will talk of the possibility
of an international economic confer
ence in Washington.
The Morning Post says: "Unques.
tionably this matter plays an import
ant part in the whole problem of inter
national Indebtedness and it is very
clear that America is looking to Great
Britain to give a strong lead to recog-
milton Of these external obligations. y
The writer in the Post ridicules the
report that repayment of the debt to
the United States in lump sum in the
near future is contemplated, adding
I'VE must remember that apart
from the question of beginning the
liquidation of our large debt to the
United States in the autumn we have
smaller obligations to meet during the
present year. 1t is understood thai
there is liability of something like
93,000,000 due to Japan while there
is a large line of three year British
notes in America which will mature

900 900.
