British Await Poincare VIII,
French Reparations and
War Debts Plan.
BY LUTHER A. HUSTON.
International News Service.

LONDON, Dec. S.-Plans for the
weekend conference of the Allied
Premiers over German reparations
and war debts began to take form
today. The first of the premiers
to arrive was NJ. Theunis Of Bel
gium. Premier Poincare Of France
and Premier Mussolinf Of Italy are
expected late tonight.
Great Britain's policy Is still OBJ
scure. despite the formal announce
ment by Premier A. Bonar Law that
the British are willing to discuss
both debts and reparations.
The whole issue appears to hang
upon the program which M. Poin.
care is bringing with him from
Paris. Advices from Paris indicated
that the French cabinet is deter
mined that there shall be no con.
cessions to Germany as to indem-
nifty unless II is accompanied by can
collation. Of war debts. I.
Due to the fact that Great Britain
Is already committed to payment
of the $4,277, ,000, 900 owing to the
United States the British premier
Is In q quandary.

Birth and other societies have Sc

being made that these organizations
be compelled by law to make their
membership rolls public 20 that the
members may be identified.
There Ia no need for anything Of
the kind. for the reason that no sec
recy II attached to membership in
such other societies. The names are
published, and they do not work in
secret to the detriment of society.
They do not wear masks.
THAT 10 one Of the main differ
snces between societies that do not

ference.
1.-THE Khan can not honestly charge
that and others in Louisiana have
refrained from enforcing the laws
made for the protection Of society.
We are acting under authority Of
law, which h exactly what the Klan
is not doing.
J'The present trouble started when
the Khan abducted five men at Me-
rogeu. La. August ~. Three men
were brutally beaten and allowed to
return to their homes. Two others,
one of them q gallant soldier who
served in the world war and against
whom no evil can Justly be charged,
have disappeared. II is believed they
have been killed. No man has seen
them since they were taken from
their homes nearly four months ago.
We are looking for their bodies.
TT is that sort OF thing that the
State Of Louisiana is trying to stop.
A law was proposed In the legisla-
ture making II obligatory that the
names Of members Of all secret So
cieties TO be made public. But the
measure was headed of. Some
men who claim to favor enforce

enforcement.

QUAKE HORRORS STILL GROW

Santiago-Each hour brings further
details Of the great disaster to Chile
caused by the earthquake and tidal
wave, and each new report received
from the provinces which suffered the
full force of the convulsion adds to the
list Of dead and the enormous damage
already recorded.
Advices from Vallanar, in the pro-
vince Of Atacama, say that the total
figures for dead recovered thus far at
that place number 1,5OO, While the adj
joining town Of Freirina is in COM
plete ruins, the casualties not being
known.
An official compilation by the min
istry of the interior, based on reports
received by that department earlier in
the day, gave the number Of dead in
six towns as 1856 and the injured
2,14O. These towns were Vallenar,
Copiapo, Coquimbo, Huasco, Chanaral
and Freirina.
This compilation did not take into
account the hundreds of smaller places
within the radius of the earthquake,
which are virtually shut off from COM
munication because Of the breakdown
Of telegraph lines.
