Some of the tax payers seem to
think our old folks and children S
homes are costing too much to
maintain. 1t has always seemed
advisable to us that the purchase
of coal, feed and groceries, in fact
about all that enters in the support
of these institutions should be
bought by competitive bidding. We
are not in favor of cutting down
the rations as we may have to be
entertained there during March.
The sale of the personal property

FRENCH FRANCS TAKE
SHARP UPWARD TURN
Improvement in Exchange Due to
Bank of France Preparing
for Huge Loans.
By the Associated Press.


PARIS, March 21.-The drop of the
dollar by more than two francs on the
exchange market since last Wednes-
day is attributed on the bourse to the
action of the Bank of France in pre-
pairing the market for loans author
lied by parliament to a total of 49,
600, 100000 francs. OF this amount g.
900, 900 francs will go to balance the
budget. 5000, 900. 900 francs to meet the
short-term obligations coming due
soon and 5000, ,00O,O6 francs author
lied for reconstruction.
The bulk of the operations on the
bourse at present is in foreign Sc
curities and it is commonly reported
in trading circles that the Bank of
France is in accord with the gov
ernment, is pushing the franc up
the same time pressing down the
value Of foreign stocks. The conse-
quence of the movement is temporary
stagnation on the bourse, there be-
ing a great predominance of sellers
who find difficulty in liquidating their
holdings.
1t IS anticipated by the experts
that the upward movement of the
franc will continue until the sub
scriptions to the loan opening in
April are closed.
Expenditures in e execution of the
peace treaty have risen more than
$500, ,000, 100000 marks, while since
last autumn there, has been an in
crease of 5000, 900. 100000 marks in
