Will Not Pay Cash
Continued from Paue Qnel

In the note, the text of which was
published tonight, Germany points
out that in May. 1921, the ratio Of
sixty paper marks to the dollar
formed the basis of fulf1llment Of
reparations payment, while on July
1st the mark had declined to 500 for
the dollar.
To effect the payment of 100000, :
900 gold marks during this year. the
sum of So,Ooo,ooo,o paper marks would
be necessary, with the mark at it's
present value.
IF under the circumstances" the
note continues. Germany would be
further obliged to buy foreign cur
rencies to an extent similar to the
amount demanded at present, the
depreciation in the value of the mark
would progress rapidly and lead to
the complete dissolution of the fin
ancial economic and social life of
Germany. For this reason Germany
under present condt' rs is unable
to continue cash payments.
There is no doubt on the part of
the German government that in
order 10 re-establish the rate of eX-
change for the mark, measures must
be taken Immediately, the effect of
which will be felt hn"~" '''' wear.
Germany, therefor, considers It in
dispensable that she be freed OF cash
payments also during the years 1923
and 1924.
The note further points out that
the situation can be remedied only
If r0.'- : a. 49, all other
cash payments arising out of the
treaty of Versailles in so far as they
have to be paid i fo:> ign currencies.
1t is declared that Germany will
henceforth be unable to meet the
cash payments required of her from
time to time by the Allied clearing
offices for the payments Of private
debts contracted by her nationals
with the nationals # the Allies.
The note concludes:
1.-The recent development in the
rate of exchange of the mark, which
began with the adjournment of the
negotiations of the loan com littee
tlement, the relief payments expected
from a foreign loan not having been
/ lized. In consideration of the
above, the German government
would be glad if the commission
would make its 'orision as to the
demand for a respite with all pos
sible speed. The German govern
mert trusts that such decision will
favor the resumption of the loan
negotiations"

Judge Nash lockwood, one of the

At new MEADOWS Inn IS
| VERY ENJOYABLE OCCASION

Representatives from many of the
chapters of the ID. A. r. throughout
the State met Wednesday at New
Meadows Inn for the annual State
Field Day. There were about 100
representatives from the various
chapters in the State and most en-
joyable time was reported by those
in attendance.
After a fine dinner had been
served at the Inn to the ladies, a
State business meeting was held
with the State Regent, Miss Maude
N. Merrick of Waterville presiding.
There We're several matters of bust
ness to come before the meeting, in
Guiding the question of erecting a
marker at kingfield at the grave of
one of the women who helped to
decorate" the men who took part
in the Boston Tea Party.
A most interesting essay was read
at this meeting. This essay was the
work of Miss Angina Alberta, a
young Portland Italian girl who has
been educated at the Springfield In
stitute by the d. A. r. of Maine. She
has completed her two. year course
at the institute and will take a post
graduate course there. Her essay,
which dealt with Americas part in
the reconstruction following the war,
was very fine and has won a prize
in a contest.

The only difficulty seems to be to
train the public to have exact change
ready, and this will be a lesson
that will be learned in time, although
at present there are short delays due
to the fact that the operator has
difficulty in making change and
operating the car at the same time.
The pay-as-you- enter feature makes
it necessary for change to be made
with passengers before the car starts,
but it is thought by officials of the
road that the matter will be straight
ened out in Q few days.
