GERMANS PLAN
Continued from Page One)

sist any moratorium until the repara-
tons commission shall have exhausted
all means given to it under the terms
of the Versailles treaty to enforce col
lection of reparations.
The instructions given by Premier
Poincare are understood to insist thai
the commission shall make SIRE that
Germany shall not pay interest on in
terror loans until reparations lave been
exacted. Premier Poincare is furt}e r
resolved that this phase Of the matter
shall be cleared up before considering
what action the commission shall take
on Germany's possible default in rcpa-
rations.
The French premier has decided that
If Germany fails to pay according to
the terms fixed by the reparatlons
commission, that commission shall no
tify the Allies of Germanys default
before discussing whether to grant de-
lays in her payments. 1t is understood
that NJ Pointcare will insist upon their
procedure as being the duty of the
commission under the Versailles
treaty.
The committee on guarantees having
completed its work in Berlin, probably
will report early in the week, where
upon the reparations commission shall
be called to dc3lde what the next step
shall be. The best information is that
France will be out-voted in the COM
mission unless the members find that
Premier Poincares point is well taken
that default on Germany's part must
be reported before delays in payment
are granted. 1t is explained that if
the default is reported, then the clause
in the treaty dealing with penalties
becomes applicable and it will be for
the Allies. instead of the commission,
to decide how TO deal with Germany.
Premier Poncare has written the
rman government proposing that the
Wiesbaden agreement governing pay
ments of reparations in kim shall go
into effect the 2Gth of July. This I'M
derstauding becomes of supreme i'm
portance to France in view of the pros
pect that no more cash payments shall
be made for zine at least. The other
allied governments have received all
the 500,000,000 gold marks coming to
them this year in goods, while France
has obtained only 100000 out of the
900,000.000 allotted to her by the rep
arations commission. Hence she is =
viously anxious to get the agreement
working as soon as possible.

HOME Of THE STATE COLLEGE
ENJOYS MANY ADVANTAGES

ing at home
The public schools of Pullman
rank high and give thorough pre-
paratiOn for all who desire to enter
institutions of higher learning. In
connection with the college they af-
ford to the young people of all ages
residing here the opportunity to ac-
quire an excellent education at a
minimum cost.
AS business point Pullman also
enjoys peculiar advantages 1t is To-
ing land in eastern Washington. The
large faculty pay roll at the college
and the money spent by the student
body are great asset which stimu-
lates and stabilizes business condi-
tions and enables the merchants to
carry stocks of larger variety and
better quality than can usually be
found in cities of the size of Pull
man. The stores are modern and
up-to-date and the merchants pride
themselves upon giving the best pos
sible service. Instead of wasting
their energies in fighting each other
they are cooperating to make this
city better trading center, and to
that end are spending a lot of money
to popularize Pullman's Sales Days
Another of the great advantages
enjoyed by this city it it's wonder
full supply of pure artesian water
which gushes out of a 1O-inch hole,
bored to a depth of lat feet, at the
rate of 2400 gallons a minute. This

SPEAKERS DIFFER ON
TAXATION QUESTION
Must 60 Slow on Gas Tax Says Sena-
tor Hall, Who Raps 3O-tO Plan
Should Make Gasoline
Build Roads Says Dumas

An interesting tax discussion was
carried on at the chamber of com
merce meeting Tuesday with Senator
Oliver Hall of Colfax and J. l.. Du-
mas of Dayton carrying the leading
roles Distinct differences of opinion
between the two gentlemen and sharp
but witty and friendly assertions and
retorts marked the discussion and
made it an intensely interesting and
profitable one
That the people at home and not
the legislature are at fault for the
alleged excessive tax rates was the
contention Of Senator Hall, who
stated that after the legislature has
levied a millage as great as it deems
advisable the people at home make
additional leyies to meet their de-
sires and are prone to lay the blame
for the heavy aggregate burden on
the legislature. I'VE must find out
where our tax money is going and
then make up our minds as to what
we are willing to cut out" said Sena-
tor Hall
Commenting on the proposed three
cent tax on gasoline, Senator Hall
stated that he has long been a be-
lever that the users Of the roads
must pay more toward the upkeep
of the highways and real estate less,
but there is limit he pointed out,
and stated that the legislature went
just as far as it could when the
| solons levied a one cent tax on gaso-
/ line. 1--WE could not have put on an
added half cent he said Senator
Hall pointed out that gasoline is used
in great quantities by other interests
than automobiles. mentioning the tug
boats and launches of the sound
country, which never use the roads
yet would be heavily taxed for their
upkeep under the proposed three cent
gas tax.
Commenting on the 30-10 school
tax proposal, Senator Wall stated that
the commission is leaving out the
desirable clauses which were intend
ed to equalize the tax burden and

Educational, Cultural and Social
Center of the Famous PalOuSe
Country, Also Good Busi-
ness Point

The city of Pullman is recognized
as the educational, cultural and So
cial center of the far famed Palouse
country and it also enjoys many pc
culiar advantages as a business and
residential point.
Its greatest asset is the State Col
lege of Washington, which not only
brings a steadily increasing student
population to the city year after year,
but also attracts hundreds of visitors
each month. The presence of the
college adds much in many diverse
ways to the pleasure of living in Pull
man. 1t brings here the best lee
turers, musicians and entertainers,
and enables the people to hear them
free of charge or at a much smaller
fee than would be charged in the
large cities for the same attractions
The large and well selected collec-
tion of books in the college library
can be used by anyone for a nominal
fee. This is great privilege to
studious people.
The members of the faculty add
much to the social and cultural at
mosphere of the whole community.
OF course the greatest advantage
which the institution brings is the
opportunity which it offers to the
young people of the community to
secure a college education while liY-
