YEARS MORATORIUM
GRANTED GERMANY
Commission Comedies PrOvi-
sional Release of Payments
for 1922.
LOAN EXPECTED SOON
Reparations Decision Was
Unanimous, French Dele
gate Joining in 1t.
LOAN EXPECTED SOON

PARIS, May 81 (Associated Press).-
The Reparations Commission tonight
fully approved the German reply to
it's ultimatum and definitely decided
to grant Germany provisional mora
torium for the year 1922.
The text OF the commissions letter
TO Chancellor Wirth and also its de-
cisicn were issued about midnight,
after tie commission had framed them
at session lasting many hours.
The decision was unanimous, the
French delegate joining in it, despite
the report of opposition from section
of the Chamber, which caused deep
concern in commission circles during
the day.
In reparations circles it is said tkat
the bankers will approve fully the
commissions action, and the view is
expressed that loan of more than
s., 900. 100000 will be arranged within
the next few weeks.
The action taken by the German Gov
ernment to put its finances on a sound
basis and eliminate as much as possible
the wholesale printing Of paper money
constitutes "a serious effort to meet
the commissions requirements the de-
cision says. Regret Is expressed. how
ever. that Germany did not begin at
an earlier date steps in this direction.
In its letter to Chancellor Wirth the
commission states that in view of the
Importance of an immediate decision
upon the question of postponement OF
payments, the commission felt justified
In taking prompt action, notwithstanding
the fact that on several points Ger
many's answer requires further elucida-
lion.
The commission informs the German
Chancellor that these matters win be
dealt with in another communication In
the near future, but II is indicated that
these matters are OF minor Importance
and will have no effect on the present
decision. In making the decision to
grant partial postponement Of payments
in 1922. beginning June !, the commits
| sion says
THE commission recalls that the post
| ponement now confirmed remains liable
to be Cancelled at any time in accord
/
commission is subsequently satisfied that
Germany has failed to carry out the
conditions laid down."
The commission further reserves its
right to cancel postponement IL at any
| time il becomes dissatisfied with the
progress made In the settlement OF mat
ters still outstanding, or failing to carry
through the arrangement in regard to
the floating debt specified in the Chan
cellor's letter of May 2s. or II. because
of inability to obtain the assistance OF
a foreign loan, Germany does not make
alternative arrangements satisfactory to
the commission for dealing with the
budget deficit and the floating debt.
The decision of the commission will
be communicated to the members OF the
International Bankers Committee to-
morrow morning, and the committee Il
expected to begin the actual work OF
organizing a loan at its session in the
afternoon provided none OF the mem
bers is out OF agreement with the COM
missions decision.

more gratifying because 1t comes
from one whose Judgment and dis
elimination deservedly carry great
weight in the community.
Moreover. the form in which this
gift is made by safeguarding the

to the application of income. is such
as to make II most beneficial to the

VIII he Used for Education.

In explaining the possible application
OF the income to the museums needs

cision had been reached the money

its educational features. which include
classes for students In the public schools

scum for students under experts, and in
increasing the number OF lectures.
Mr.. Baker has been trustee of the
Metropolitan Museum for thirteen years
but has been interested in the institution
almost since it's foundation. He Snade
several gifts to II before he bee me a
trustee and has made several since. His
most recent gift, in 1916. was the cele-
brated picture ''Salome." by Regnault,

for s105. 900 in 1912 BY Roland Knoed-
Ter from the collection Of Marquise Lam

The only recent gift in cash TO the
museum equal in size TO that OF Mr.

by Mrs. Anna NJ Hardness. the income
from which also is being used In ex-
tending the educational features OF the
institution.

WOMEN VOTERS
HEAR SPEAKER
This EVENING
Mrs. Emma ingalls, Will Spend
Week in City Recognizing
League.

Mrs. Emma A. ingalls, OF kaIspeu,
who is in the city to assist the City
Federation of Women's Clubs in reor-
ganizing the League of Women Voters,
will make her first appearance this
(Tuesday) evening at the junior high
school, where a program will be given
in the interest of cooperative commun-,
ity service, under the auspices OF the
federation. She will discuss num-
Der of federal bills that are partlc-
ularly pertinent to her work as state
representative of the League of Women
Voters.
1.-THE meeting is in the nature OF an
experiment, but we believe it will meet
need and that it will be appreciated
by all who are DESTROYS Of keeping
abreast of present day educational
problems said Mrs. II. B. Mitchell,
chairman for the City Federation, in
arranging the program, upon which
DIR. G.. A. Fuson, city and county ply
stefan, and 10y Molumby are listed as
speakers. DR.. Fuson will discuss
health problems and Mr.. Molumby,
Americanization work.
In discussing her work for the
league, Mrs. Ingalls, said Monday after
noon:
No Party Lines
II consider the reorganization of
the League of Women Voters, here
and elsewhere, absolutely essential.
The league is the only medium that l
can think of through which the wom-
ans political point of view may be in
troduced into the various political par
ties. 1t is the only medium through
which those particular things that are
essential to our national life can ever
be secured. Women will vote for these
things regardless of party and the i'm
portant thing is to get all parties in
terested in them"
Mrs. ingalls, stressed particularly the
point that the league is not partisan IN
It's ideas and efforts. Rather than
encouraging the forming of political
party, this is discouraged. 1t is more
important that the woman's angle on
politics should be brought into the
many parties. than practiced by the
one" she said.
Education First
''The league aims first to educate
then to agitate and finally to legislate
| We want to educate so that the won er
may carry the ideas fostered by the
league back into their own parties. We
expect them to see that women's in
terests are protected by the legisla-
| ton of their parties.
THE strongest stand taken by the
league is in matters of education anG
protection of children; the protection
of women in industry; social conditions
generally, and hygiene and education
that will lead to finer, cleaner cond
tons in particular"
Mrs. ingalls, comes to Great Fails
from Helena, where she has just re
organized branch of the league She
declared that the enthusiasm she founc
there was inspiring, saying that tbs
women felt the crying need for sucl
an organization. She voiced the hop,
:! that the interest in the reorganization
here will be as keen.
