POINCARE DECLARES FRANCE
WILL MAKE GERMANY PAY
Tells Thiaucourt War Victims Every German Will Be
Held to Strict Accountability for Repair of
Damage Inflicted

TO advise us to leave unpublished the
authors of this outrage against civiliza-
tior and relieve Germany of indemnities
to which the families of these martyrs
are justly entitled?
Germany violated all the recognized
rules of warfare. She burned. pillaged
and laid waste without justice or rea-
son. She bombarded unprotected towns
and used poison gas. all in an effort
to win by terror war which she de-
SPARED of winning on the field. 1t does
not suffice that since their defeat a GER
tain number Of Germans have weakly
repudiated this crime and destruction.
When 1t was being used and thought
practical all Germans encouraged or at
least tolerated il.
"All Germany is associated with the
sacking and burning of the devastated
regions. and all must therefore equally
assume responsibility for this outrage.
All are equally held to repair the ter
rible damage we have suffered. and we
know how to exact reparation for It,"
The Premiers speech was received
with great enthusiasm. He Is expected
to deliver an address of great Importance
on the reparatons question Tomorrow
at the opening session OF the General
Council of the Department OF the Meuse.

LABOR CHIEF DENOUNCES
8B GRADE GRADUATION
Says Exercises Glue Impression
Education Has Ended.

Peter j. Brady. chairman of the COM
Inittee on education of the State Fedora
iion of Labor. objects 20 the graduation
exercises that mark the close OF the
elementary school period OF a young
ster's life, and he will bring this matter
up at the convention OF the federation In
Poughkeepsie this week.
Many parents and children regard
graduation from the Sc grade as the end
of education. and this impression is
heightened by elaborate public cereno-
nies when some trustee or prominent
citizen attempts 10 advise the graduates
on the brilliant careers opened to them ;"
said Mr.. Brady. There should be no
break ~ the continuity Of advancement.
10 the higher grades and graduation ox !.
crclscs should be held only on compile
tlon Of the fourth year in high school.
"Foppish or ovcrdressed children are a
source Of destruction In the classroom.

discouraged i will help 10 produce n
better feeling among pupils and be an
aid 10 their parents. who sometimes go
without the necessities OF life IN order

THIAucoURT, France. Aug. 20 lAsso-
ciated Press) France knows how to
make Germany pay for the destruction
she causeI during the war, and every
German will be held TO strict account
ability for the repair Of this damage.
Premier Poincare told the assembled
population of Thiaucourt which gathered
together to-day to dedicate monument
TO the soldiers Of this community who
fell in the great struggle. The cere-
mony had a double meaning in that the
monument was designed also to honor
scores OF civilians who died as result
OF occupation of the town by German
troops.
After reviewing the heroic part played
by the town in resisting the German
drive on Paris In September, 1914, and
the intense suffering of the population
under German occupation. the Premier
exclaimed:
You citizens who have Witnessed
these horrors committed by Germany
you. who have seen your parents, wives,
children and friends fall before your
eyes because of German barbarity. can
you comprehend that to-day, after our
hard won victory, there are certain peo-

The first move TO be made by the OPP

the declaration OF Mr.. MoCumber that
President Harding can be swerved from

The presentation and explanation OF the
bill will consume two or three days pei

any opposing Senator is expected TO
make will be to recommit the bonus
measure TO The Finance Committee
which framed it, and permit It to die
in that subordinate body.
More than twenty amendments have
already been drawn to perfect the Dill.

Revelation or His Canvass.

A number Of Senators who had given
their individual pledges" to support "a
bonusbill' have come to agree 10 the
Presidents view of the situation. The
canvass OF the Senate by Mr. Borah
ana Mr. New yesterday clearly revealed
this fact, in addition to max ng il alb
solutely certain there will he votes
enough on hand to prevent the over
riding Of the Presidential veto. which
is expected by both proponents and op-
ponents of the bonus scheme.
While the advocates of the bonus,
headed by Mr.. McCumber on the Re-
publican de and Mr.. Walsh on the
Democratic. express complete optimism
over the successful result of their cam
paign to impose further burdens on the
taxpayers. there is manifestly less con-
fidence among the oliticans of the Amer
lean Legion who arc support ng their
efforts.
In public statement two months ago.
Commander MacNider of the American
Legion. who is now directing the most
vigorous propaganda ever turned loose
on Congress, declared there would not
be more than ten votes against the
bonsu bill in the Senate.
in a statement to-day the Amer can
Legion commander modified that pre-
diction with the declaration that "a ma
jority of the Senate, including both
parties, favors the bill. and Is pledged
to vote for IS passage"
Mr.. MacNider's declaration that ma :
jority of the Senate is pledged 20 vote
for its passage is correct These
pledges were solely individual, and
inspired by the belief that the national
treasury could stand the dra n involved
without resort to the stupendous taxa
ton that viii be necessary, o raise the
money.
The New York herald., 1922-08-21
value OF individual Pledges.

The value OF the individual pledges
gwen by Senator'S is held in some quar-
ters not to be controlling in the present
situat on. Many Senators who pledged"
their support to the enterprise of voting
money out Of the Treasury to promote
their political fortunes made a great
how-to-do during the debate on the
Newberry case. because the Michigan
Senator directly or indirectly had spent
his own money for the same purpose.
Some of Mr.. Newberry's critics who
are now opposing the bonus bill in the
Senate declare he proved himself "a
better sportsman" than some of their
associates who are eager TO dip into
the public treasury to pay off their So
called obligations to able bodied ex-ser-
vice men who want Government cash.
IL Is clear from the attitude in which
the supporters and opponents of the
McCumber bonus bill will approach the
battle on Wednesday that Il will be one
or the most bitter and spectacular
events ever staged in Congress. The
opposition expresses the utmost conf
dence that before the conflict is over
several Senator's who are still on the
fence will be brought around To the
Presidential view of the bonus propo-
sition.
Supporters of the measure admitting
the certainty Of 4 Presidential veto will
make a deter mined effort during the next
two or three days to develop scheme
which they hope win merit more gentle
treatment at the white House than
