KAHN'S PLAN ALLIED
DEBT CANCELLATION

New York. Mar. Decentralization
of the allied war debts to the Uni
ted States in return for pledges that
conditions keeping Europe in turmoil
will be eliminated was advocated to-
day by Otto II. Kahn, banker, in a
speech before the Advertising club.
The disturbing conditions referred to
have grown out of the various peace
treaties and form the basis for inter
minable strife, he said.
1.-THE most troublesome of many
ills growing out of the treaties is the
amount of the German reparation."
he added. 1T is not only greatly be-
yond Germany's capacity to pay, but
it is causing grave damage to all the
world. A policy of audacious kindli-
ness in dealing with foreign prob
lens is necessary if. prosperity is to
return to this country"

An Attraction Not
Sought by Augusta
(Biddeford Journal.)


Dusty Dumont, the ace of Tom
Travers' stable, came into the Jour-
nal Office this (Tuesday) morning
and requested the sporting ~ditor to
make the announcement that he
would be tickled to meet JOS st.
Hllaire of Somersworth, n H., in
bout in this city. Dusty stated that
since he met st. Hilaire in Augusta.
there have been a number of local
fans who have stopped him on the
street and told him what a beating
st. Hilaire gave him in the Augusta
bout. These same fans claim that
Dusty could never beat St Hilaire
at anywhere near even weight. Just
to convince the skeptical ones in this
city, Dusty will sacrifice the big
guarantee which the Augusta club
offered him to meet st. Hilaire in a
return bout, and allow the bout to be
staged in this city. Dusty cannot
get half the money in this city that
a bout in Augusta will bring, but he
would rather convince the local fans
that he is better man than st. Hill
aire, than to go to Augusta for
bigger purse, which has already been
offered for a bout within the next
two weeks.
This bout would probably bring
out more fans than any bout staged
here in years as it will be fought to
determine the welterweight title of
Maine and New Hampshire. Both
boys are we'll known in this vicinity
and the majority of local fans believe
them to be about evenly matched.
The two are of the slugging type and
bout between them is sure to be
full OF action. 1t is hoped that the
two will be brought together in this
city within the next few weeks.

Harvard Dean
Gives His Views
on Modern Football

VAt ANAV08SA - -
Cambridge. Mass. Mar. 1.-THE
view Of college football held by .Cean
LeBaron r. Briggs of Harvard Uni
versity was outlined today In his an
nual report az chairman Of the Har.
ward Athletic Committee.
For better or for worse. what was
designed as game has become to the
players discipline Of body and mind
(education of a sorD rather than fun.
though not all the fun has been elm
mated from it," he said. Having
become discipline, it demands highly
developed skill which can be acquir-
ed through nothing but severe and
costly training and which people who
admire skill in athletics will pay to
see"
This reference to the development
Of the gridiron sport. Dean Briggs
first contribution to the recent eX-
change of views on the subject by
leading educators. was incidental to
a consideration. of requests for the
soliciting of charity at the big games.
Almost invariably these requests
have had to be refused, he said. in
order to protect the purchasers OF
tickets from confusion that inter-
feres with their seeing what they
have paid to see."
Instructions have been given to
discourage flights by airplanes over
the stadium, Dean Briggs said, add
ing:
The fight or airplanes above the
field, if it cannot lawfully BE prohib-
tied, will be in a few years serious
menace to the comfort of spectators
and even to the satisfactory pla: ing
of the game. Incidentally. there are
wide and unpleasant possibilities in
the relation of flying machines, (and
of aerial photography to secret prac-
tce. The time may come when Sec
ret practice cannot confidently be
maintained without an air patrol and
the consequently heavy overhead
charges. Hence opponents of secret
practice may take heart"
Dean Briggs report was for the
year 1920-21. In the principal inter-
collegiate sports he said, Harvard
teams had good share of success
with the exception of the crew
(which met series of defeats end
ing with the loss of a close race al

ulty to discourage distant contests
On the other hand. western colleges

quate."

Senate Committee
Favor Duty on Hides

Washington, Mar. 15-An import
duty of Is per cent. ad valorem on
hides has been voted by Senate fin
ance committee Republicans who are
rewriting the Fordney tariff bill.
Hides were on the free list under
both the Payne-Aldrich and Under
wood laws and would have so re-
manned under the Fordney measure.
There were two separate votes on
this subject. the first having been
five to four against any duty. Lead
ers of the Republican agricultural
tariff bloc insisted that cattle raisers
be protected and on a reconsidera-
ton of the first vote: the Is per cent.
rate was agreed upon. also by five 70
four. 1t was indicated that the fight
to retain hides on the free list would
be carried to the floor of the Senate.

touches their interests. An amend
ment for that purpose, in form diff
fering slightly from the two voted
Senator Pittman. Democrat, Nevada,
and was defeated, % to so. with the
division of strength virtually COIN
Gliding with party lines.
Little running debate developed
over the amendment or the treaty
generally. although late in the day
Senator Spencer, Republican. Mis-
souri,, treaty supporter. stirred up a
cross fire of discussion by assailing
the mo alliance" reservation of the
foreign relations committee. He de-
c1ared that tn etreaty did create IAN
alliance for conference" and that the
reservation constituted a ridiculous
absurdity."
Meantime also, two new resolutions
and one more amendment were Offer
ed for later considerat alton. One of the
reservations was put in by Senator
Johnson, Republican, California and
embodied the language of the reserva-
ton which had been presented by
Senator Brandegee, Republican, Con-
necticut. in the foreign relations COM
mittee. but abandoned by him after
a conference with President Harding.
The other reservation was by Sena-
tor Shields, Democrat, Tennessee and
would declare the treaty meant no
interference in foreign quarrels. The
amendment. offered by Senator Rob-
inson. Democrat, Arkansas, would
pledge the four powers against Sc
cret treaties or understandings.
1t was Senator Brandegee who laid
the unanimous consent agreement be-
fore the Senate with a statement
that he had been prompted to prepare
it. because several Democratic sena-
tors had come to him with the sug-
gestion that time be fixed so they
would be free to attend to other duties
away from Washington. The "irrec-
oncilables" element also had been
consulted before the formal proposal
was made and had given their assent,
although Senator Johnson told the
Senate he considered it unwise. be-
cause it would serve to deaden in.
terest and keep senators away from
the sessions that are TO intervene be-
fore the final vote.
The opposition leaders would not
discuss what bearing the agreement
might have on their hopes of defeat
ing ratification but they conceded pri-
vately that they saw little to be gain
ed by delaying a vote. This admis.
sion in itself was accepted by those
IN charge of the treaty as virtually
meaning the collapse of any real ef-
fort to beat the pact for which
enough pledged votes are claimed to
insure ratification.
1t was considered probable TONIGHT
that in their campaign to secure
reservations the opposition now
would center attention of the question
OF admitting outside powers to the
paclnc conferences. Although de-
feated three times in the form of an
amendment. proponents Of the pro-
posai still believe that if embodied in
the right kind of a reservation II
might command the support of MANY
who had hesitated tc amend the
treaty text itself, because that meth
cd would require re-opening of nceo.

Boston Market Review
For Week Endino March ia, 1922

Dairy and Poultry Products: But
ter prices have been unusually low
for a number of months, and many
dealers had figured that they would
continue low for the remainder of
the season, but the past week has
seen an advance that has brought
values higher than they have been
at any time this year. Fancy fresh
butter has been extremely scarce
and active bidding jumped the price
from SIC up to 4Oc for tubs and
forced up all other grades CORE
spending amounts. Print butter has
sold easily up to 43c and even dairy
goods have brought &c. Western
fresh has advanced to 33-3Sc and
storage has sold more readily at 10
i6c. Cheese prices are little changed
from last week but are very firm
at q 1-2c for fresh and 24c for
cured stuff. The poultry market has
reacted slightly from the high levels
established last week and most kinds
are little lower. Dressed fowl sell
at 32-35c, chickens from 32-36c for
frozen and up to 43c for capons.
