army costs, the notes declared, was
understood to be free from any sub
stantial dispute, but it was deemed to
be appropriate "in view of recent de-
velopments," to acquaint the allied
governments with the repeatedly re-
iterated statement that the govern
ment of the United States was eX-
pecting full payment of the costs of
its army in the Rhineland.
Basis for the American claim, the
notes pointed out, was found in the
armistice agreement, to which the
United States was sigEatory, and
which provided for military occupa-
ton of Germany by the Allied and
American forces jointly. That agree
ment. the notes recited. expressly
provided that the upkeep of the
troops of occupation in the Rhine
districts should be charged to the
German government and it was eX-
pressed as the view of the American
government that the armistice agree
ment had the clear import" that the
powers associated in that Joint en-
terprise should stand upon an equal
footing as to the payment of all the
actual costs of their armies of occu-
patton"
Priority Of payments for the total
costs of all armies CT occupation was
imposed by the treaty of Versailles, the
notes set forth. and since the right of
the United States TO share in that pri-
, GRITTY was not expressly conditioned"
upon ratification of the treaty bv the
mi e..
not be construed as affecting in any
way American rights. In that connec-
tion the notes pointed out that Ger
! many has explicitly consented t. the
priority Of the payment of the cost Of
the American army of occupation. rot
/ withStandlng the fact that the treaty
Of Versailles has not been ratified by
the United States and that hence
ANY technical objection" to the dis
charge of the just claim Of the United
states would necessarily rest solely
upon rcfuSal of the allied powers fpcm-
selves TO permit tho discharge cr an
"admittedlv equitable claim" and it
was insisted that the rights of America
We're free from any technical object ion.
The notes set forth that the total
cost of all armies Of occupation from
November II. 1918. to May I. 1921.
amounted to 3.G39.2S2 900 gold marks;
that the amounts Cue 10 Belgium,
France and Italy for their army costs
for that period had been paid in fun.
and that the unpaid balance due May
l. 1921, amounted TO 500. 090, 600 gold
marks. or which 9G6.37i 600 gold marks
We're due to the United States AMI the
remainder due to the British Empire.
II was pointed out also that tho Brit
ish government had received $50. SEQ. 600
gold marks between May and Deem
Der 81. 1921. and that the payment
was expressly made and received sub
ject to the rights OF the United States"
In conclusion the notes stated that
the American government would vel
come any suggestions from the allied
governments for the reasonable adj
justment of this matter" and the pow
crS were informed that upon receiving
assurances of payments" this govern
mcnt would be only too happy 10 pro-
coed to tho consideration Of suitable

satisfied.

day evening in the first round of the
second six before a large crowd that
filled every inch of space on the floor
the gallery, the stage and vim
dow seats. 1t was the biggest crowd
that has attended a local bout for
many moons.
Dubc's light went out in the first
round of the second six when he
went down under one of JoScphs'
punches and failed to rise before the
count. JoSephs showed better foot
work than he did two weeks ago
vi en- he and DUDE went IL rounds to
Il draw He entered the fight with
an air of confidence that spelled vic
tory, and he kept this attitude to the
last.
JOsophs had the best Of the scrap
from the first. although DUDE carried
the lighting at times. The first round
was even, although Josephs cut
Dubc's mouth and made his lip
bleed. In the second DUDE landed on
JoSephs' map again, which the latter
returned with interest. In the third,
it was again give and take. with Jo-
sCrhs Il shade the stronger.
They came up in the fourth and
went at it hammer and tongs, and
soon one of Dubcs teeth vent spin
ming across the ring. causing him TO
bleed profuscly at the mouth. In the
fifth. it was give and take at the first,
but Il lucky punch put DUDE down for
the count of eight. He got to his
feet again and made a wild swing at
his opponent. DUDE was plainly
wearicd and staggered against the
ropes with Joscphs following when
the gong ended the round. DUDE
came back in the sixth little fresh
cr and landed few on Josephs face
which were returned in kind, making
the round fifty-tif
When the fighters came on for the
second six, DUDE seemed to have re-
covered. Both men SPARED for a
. time and both put over few good
ones. Suddenly DUDE spat out q
mouthful of blood, and his face
showed the strain of the punishment
he Lad taken. Josephs landed a par
ticularly hard one and moment
later Dubc's legs crumblcd, he went
to the mat for the count.
Before the fight, Sailor Utah of
Bangor challenged the winner for a
bout in two weeks. Roy Day of Au-

closeted for two days in joint con-
ference, members OF the anthracite
miners and operators wage arbitra-
ton committee of eight announced
tonight that they were still at log
3CrhCadS.
one more session Will be held-to-
morroW-in a final attempt to settle
wage differences before labor mem
h"rs OF the committee leave for
Cleveland, to marshal the 100000
anthracite and bituminuus miners
of the nation for the general strike
ordered for April ].
I'VE have agreed upon nothing"
John l.. Lewis, international presi-
dent Of the United Mine Workers of
America announced at the close of
tcday'S session. our discussions
with the operators have been con-
fined to general conditions in the in
dustry.
Although operators have declared
they Will not increase wages, but
VIII demand they they be decreased.
they have not yet made specific pro-
(
eight. In the meantime we are
standing ON our 10 demands FOR
higher wages and better working
conditions"
The operators declined to comrpcnt
on the results Of todays session.
Mr.. Lewis today refused to con-
slider seriously the suggestion of
Frank Darlington. president of the
Illinois bituminous district, for ne
gotiations of Il separate agreement
with the operators which would per-
nit Illinois workers to disregard the
general strike edict.
Referring to what he termed mis-
leading. misinformed and erroneous
reports that the miners sought a uni
form wage scale based on conditions
in the most profitable mines in the
country. Mr.. Lewis asserted that the
nineteen wage demands made "spcCi-
Tic provision for the differential eX-
listing in mines possessing varying
advantages of output and gCOgla-
phicaI and commercial accessibility"
He cited Tie nanVillc and Hooking
valley bituminous fields. where. he
said wages had increased only GJ per
cent since 1916. instead of 100 per
cent, as claimed by certain officials
, of the operators.
Mr. Lewis tomorrow Will meet with
tho 50 members of the anthracite
scale committee to plan for the Sus-
pension OF work in the anthracite
fields on April /.

morrow, to prepare local unions for

general survey of the finances OF both
Litumiuous and anthracite organiZa-
lions will be started at once. it was
said to prepare for issuance of strike
