PEOPLES FORUM
WANTS A CORN PALACE

Editor Tribune:
Mr.. A. D. Brown, Editor Of the
Beulah Independent, wants the Miss
ouri Slope Country to build Corn
Palace, patterned after the Corn
Palace at Mitchell, South Dakota.
Mr.. Browns idea is to have the Com
mercial Clubs Of Bismarck and Man
dan, the State immigration Depart
ment and the Northern Pacific Rail-
way Company cooperate in building
the palace. Mr.. Brown thinks that
the logical place to build the> palace
is at Bismarck, the seat of govern
ment of the state, and that it should
be built on the site formerly oc-
cupied by the old Northwest Hotel,
SO that it could be seen by people
going through the state on the
Northern Pacific trains, and the pa
lace to be completed and a big corn
show held not later than October
or November 1924.
Mr.. Brown says that the corn
growers and people generally of ma
jestic Mercer and Oliver Counties,
are ready and willing to get behind
and boost for such an enterprise.
Yours truly,
w. Az Falconer.

JUST TO REMIND YOU
TOO MUCH PESSIMISM

Pessimistc views of Wall street business have been
by reports of industrial activity throughout the nation
Gloomy reports of Europe by Secretary Melons

there Alarming reports of governmental waste and extra
vagance followed by plain showing of reduced expend
and the possibility of Congress looping
off the bill of the nation The pessmsm wheat
has been succeeded by optimism the huge

just ahead turned toward the forthcoming
sion of Congress.
There those who dire results emanatng from
the halls of Congress where it is feared by them that the
radicals will take control of the government and force the
country into many disastrous experiments
But is rather difficult to believe that those Senators who
returned from Europe getting frshand reports of
the conditions there going to embroil the United
States in disastrous Quarrels.
It is hardly likely that any of them who bumped along
t-controed railways the Atlantic
going try and wreck the rapid progress being made by
railroads in the United States.
It is rather stretching point to predict that legislation
will be enacted to disrupt the sound currency system of tho
nation when rubes have scarcely value and German milk
bills are paid in bales of paper marks.
Nor is likely that radicals will dsorganize industry
when the farmers and their representatives in the North
west demanding increased protective tariff and adher
to this traditional policy of the nation to aid the farm
ing industry.
Oraorica outbursts and go in the forthcoming
Congress and political shots crash through the air. but there

ton for the immense damage inflict-
ed upon her solely because she re-

In spite OF her priority claims. NJ.
Jaspar remarks, Belgium has receiv-
ed in cash and kind only q little more
than Great Britain or France. He
then gives the exact figures in gold
marks as follows:
Great Britain 1891, 900. 900; France
1.175. 900. 900; Belgium 1,29s. 900 900;
the other allies 642. 900, 900.
, 1923-08-28

upon the 1@stice Of Beisium's claim
to priority in PREPARATION payments.
It points out that thus far Belgium
has received only two million gold
marks more than Great Britain.
Foreign Minister Jaspar asserts
that the whole problem of repara-
tons and the question Of interallied
debts are definitely bound together
and he proposes a new method OF
procedure in the negotiations. sug-
costing conversations among the al
lies. without reverting to the old
system of conferences"
NJ. Jaspar remarks that IL n re-
duotion in Germany's debt is neoes'
sary. the balance she is obliged to
pay ought 10 apply TO material dam
ages only. Tn might be understood
as mcnacing the elimination OF pen
uions from the allied claims on Ger
many, thus reducing the British
share TO an ininitesimal percentage.
NJ. Jaspar lays down TIL, principle
that II the German debt is reduced
the percentages Of the allied shares
must be revised. He contends that
thi balance due from Germany must
apply only to material damage done
by her during the war. that Is, the
destruction OF property in Belgium
and France, shipping losses at sea
and damages from air raids in Eng
land.
He remarked that although the
material damage is perhaps less than
the 1872. ooo, ooo. 900 gold marks now
considered as due from Germany. II
is considerably more than the sums
mentioned by certain Of the allies
as tbs total Germany can pay.
The note agrees that the negotia-
tons thus far show that Germany's
debt can be considerably reduced.
The question. he asserts. is how II
can pest be done with Justice to ali
the allies.
In conclusion, the Belgium foreign
minister declares that so long as the
security of the countries which sui.
fered from invasion is not assured,
there can be neither n rea1 and en-.
durable peace. nor a reduction Of
armament.

the Germans alone arc responsible.
The occupation will be modified
whenever the German people aban-
don their present attitude.
Six of the twenty two pages in
the document are devoted to q dis
cuss!on Of Belgian priority in repara-
ton payments. The note answers the
implication in tho British communi.
cation that Belgium has been unduly
favored. since tho other allies have
made sacrifices while her priority has
remained.
