mentioned by certain of the allies as
the total Germany can pay.
The note agrees that the negotia-
tions thus far show that Germany,
debt can be considerably reduced. The
question. he asserts. is how II can
best be done with Justice to all the
allies.
In conclusion, the Belgian foreign
minister declares that SO long as the
security of the countries which suf-
fered from invasion is not assured
there can be neither a real and en-
durable peace, nor a reduction in
armaments.
Meets POincare View.
The Belgian note. which was received
fayorably here. is in such complete
accord with Premier Poincare's stand
on most of the irritating points in
question. such as the legality of the
occupation Of the Ruhr and the terms
upon which the territory would be
evacuated, that it is thought in on
cial circles that the contention on
these points will be abandoned by the
British cabinet or be left in suspense
while the larger aspects of the prob
lem are discussed.
The change In the method of dis
cussion proposed in the Belgian note
Is felt here to be an absolute neces-
sity to prevent ruffiing the feelings
Of the allies. as was evident In the
recent exchange of notes, and the
French premier is believed to be very
amenable to initiating a system of
talks between the allied ministers, ar
ranged to suit the British. provided
that there is no return to- the OLD
supreme council meetings.
The declaration of the Belgian for
eign minister in the note that repara-
tions and the interallfed debts def
nitely are bound together has awak-
ened great interest in French circles,
as did the proposal that if the Ger
man debt Is reduced reparations
should be distributed on the basis of
material damage done. But discreet
reticence is observed upon these
points in official circles.

MINERS REFUSAL
TO ARb|TRATE HIT
Julius H. Barnes Sees ChaI.
Ienge to Basic Principle of
Industrial Relations:

In its present aspect the coal situa-
tion has become a challenge to funda-
mental principle of industrial relations,
Julius H. Barnes, president Of the Cham
ber of Commerce of the United States.
declared yesterday in statement deal
ing with the controversy in the anthra-
cite industry.
I'VE never have found" Mr.. Barnes
| said, ''any method of settlement of dis
putes to replace the one of physical con-
test and violence except the method of
judicial Interpretation by reference to
an impartial tribunal. The establish
ment of courts and tribunals is the one
distinctive feature which marks the diff
ference between civilized organiza-
ton Of society and that of unorganized
barbarism.
Offered to Arbitrate.
Now, if it is true that in this dis
pute there has been on the part of the
operators an unreserved offer to submit
the questions to impartial arbitration,
and II that offer has no conditions which
tend to render it unfair or partial in
any degree, and if that offer has been
fiatly refused, then we are. as 1 said,
to the point of challenge to the prin-
Sipic oI WHICH organized society pre-
serves its orderly existence.
There has developed, moreover, a
feeling. that the public has an In
terest In the settlement of wage dis
putes and of relations between work
ers and their employers on such a
scale as this, such as has not before
been generally recognized. 1t is now
realized that settlement. which
grants unfair demands on either side
and is reimbursed by a public price
levied on every consumer, is not a
fair settlement in an article of such
common use and of such a charac.
ter as to assume almost the character
OF monopoly.
Direct Challenge Seen.
Therefore, there is an unusual sig.
nificance in the direct issue, stripped
OF all other technicalfties, as to
whether. in this great industry. the
workers and employers Is to be sub
ject to the determination OF an i'm.
partial tribunal, in which the public
interest will also be considered, ol
whether one side or the other shall
impose it's will brutally upon the
other, and the public pay the cost
1T may be true that twenty years
ago the refusal of the employers tt
submit these questions to arbitration
when requested by workers, is today
the foundation on which justification
is attempted for todays refusal or
the other side, bat the ethics of TWEEN
ty years ago in industrial relations
are not the ethics of today, and pas
WRONGS do not make the foundation
for present wrongs as WELL

was showing herself too exacting in
this respect, in view of the allies
generous action in wiping out the
81. SOC, 900, 900 owed them by Belgium
and the further fact that the Bel
gians have already received about
$3.50, 900. 900 of the total of $500. 100000
reparattons due them from Germany.
The suggestion by the Brussels
government that the percentage
agreed upon at the Spa conference
be revised receives scant sympathy
from the British. who see in such a
plan a curtailment of both the British
and Italian shares of the indemnities.
Broadly. therefore. ii is held in gov
ernmental circles that reparation
solution is no nearer today than a
year ago, and that whatever slender
hope there is for the future rests
with the uersonal meeting of Prime
Minister Baldwin and Premier Poin-
care before the former returns from
his vacation in France.

10 BANDITS FLEE
WITH $4,000 RUM
Three Stand Guard Over
Watchmen While Seven
Roll Out As Barrels.
By the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, August 2S.-While three
armed men stood guard over the
three watchmen seven other robbers
early today loaded forty-five barrels
of whisky from the warehouse of
Wakem & Mclaughlin into a truck
All the robbers escaped with the
liquor.
The stolen liquor, according to po-
lice. estimates, might be marketed at
bootleg prices for something like
$4,000.
The warehouse, a government bond
ed warehouse. is situated on East Illi-
nois street and, according to police
information, the robbers rolled the
barrels of whisky out of the front
entrance and loaded them without
any interruption.
While the three watchmcn were
held under cover of revolvers others
in the band knocked boards off the
stairways and rolled the barrels down
SkidS from the second and third
floors. During the time the men were
, held prisoners, the robbers registered
the watchmen'S regular calls on a
watch service.
When the robbers fled the watch
men summoned the police, but the
invaders and their cargo vanished.

resist the bonus advocates and make
a drive for lower taxation? y
See Western Drive.
From d political viewpoint few
people are able to estimate which
would be more effective. There are
many more MILAN taxpayers, Of
course, than there are soldiers en-
titled to bonus. The support of the
big business and financial centers Of
the country would be given the
Coolidge administration II at the
same time that a bonus was shelved
taxes were reduced. The agricul-
turai west is off the political resar-
walton anyhow, and Is an uncertain
quantity. but program of lower
taxes would trend to hold the east
solidly behind the Republican admin
istration--thats one theory by which
the politics of the hour is being cal
culated.
Senate finance committee. has said that
he didn't look for reduction of taxa
tion at the next session. But there is
no doubt that the western insurgents,
especially the La Toilette group, will
press for tax revision, especially on
smaller incomes and for a raising Of
the taxes on those of higher incoh1es
If the western senator's are going to
take the initiative In tax revision, the
regulars. who want to keep the admin
isGyRtion lined UP with eastern senti-
meht, would prefer to control the sit
uation BY offering a program Of their
own. 1t IL inconccivabie that the ad-
ninistratioH would sit silently while
the Insurgents offered programs Of tax
revision, ~.
Two Courses Open.
Can the government reduce taxes
and pay a bonus, too? The advocates
of the sales tax think so. This In
PRODUCES still another element into
the controversy. as there are many
people In Congress who think the
present system of taxation could be
simpiifed by sales tax, and they
are glad OF the excuse that the bonus
situation offers to renew their advo-
cacy of a sales tax.
The announcement of Chairman Mad
den, however, will for the present
have the effect of forcing the tissue
as between a bonus and tax reduc-
tion, with the administration watch
ing carefully the trend OF public
opinion to sac whether the country
would rather add to its expenditures,
with q possibility of increased taxa
eion, or keep on tor a few years with
its policy Of reducing tho public debt
apd taxes generally.
