which was made available by sew
eral prominent local business men.
Although the land is now in the
possession of the auditorium com
mittec. work on the proposed baild-
ing will not be started until spring.
owing to the fact tina: ore of the
buildings which will be- razed -
bound to a lease which does not

In view of the fact that the pro-
posed building is a l0c per cent :..-
vestment tCr the city and a 100 per

fund campaign will necessitate
much time said Col Harper
The investors will be given half
OF their investment in first mort

protected in any event
when the funds have been Sc
cured. no time will be lost in MAJ
ing the necessary arrangements for

DR.. RYAN URGES
U. 5. and FRANCE
TO CANCEL DEBTS
Says Economic Balance
Of World Requires
Such Procedure.

Cancellation of foreign debts to
this country and all reparations
owed France by Germany was ad-
vocated as the only means by
which the economic balance of the
world can be established, by DR..
John A. Ryan. of the National Cath
Ollie Welfare Council, during an. ad-
dress before the National Council
for Reduction. Of Armaments yes
terday.
France will not receive even
that part Of the reparations which
Germany is able to pay" said
Father Ryan, for Germany can
only pay with goods, and France
refuses this. having recently in
creased her tariffs against German
imports.
This demand for full reparations
on the part of France is not only
insincere but is menace to inter-
national peace. for the following
reasons:
First. Ii means the continuation
and increase of International en-
nifty between France and Germany,
and between France and her allies,
who realize that this amount of
reparations cannot be paid. Sec
ondly, 1t leads inevitably to the ex-
ercise of force, in the seizure OF
German territory, and even in the
attempt to take charge of all the
instrumentalities of government and
industry in Germany. Third. this
policy will prevent the economic
recovery, not only Of Germany, but
of several other countries in Eu-
rope. Fourth. 1t continues the un-
healthy condition of government
finances in France and other couu-
tries which, like France, vainIy
hope that their excesses OF eXpendI-
lures over receipts can somehow be
betrayed by German rcparatiop
payments.
THE same dilemma which exists
In regard to the payment of Ger
man reparations exists in the case
of the foreign debts owed this
country. This debt can be paid
only in goods. Were we to receive
the amount of goods, or even the
annual interest in goods, the re-
sulting dislocation of our industries
would probably cause more incon-
venience than we have already suf-
fered. 1t is difficult, therefore. to
escape the conclusion that the in
formed and intelligent readers OF
industry and politics in America
are quite as insincere and stupid
for clamorinS for a repayment OF
foreign debts as are the leaders OF
France. And the anomaly of an in.
crease in French tariffs is exactly
paralleled by our proposed tariff in
creases We can be paid only
through an increase in imports. but
we are taking steps to reduce oul
imports"

The Mississippi State Society met
last night at the Confederate
Memorial Home, 1922 Vermont ave-

death of Walter P. Ramsey, a
prominent member of the society.

of Justice. a friend of Mr.. Ramsey,
eulogized him for activities in civic
and State affairs.
A short talk on the anti-lynching
bill was made by Representative
Quin, who declared that the seven
Representatives from Mississippi
voted against the bill because they
considered it would be an infringe

cause they believed an anti-lynch-
