FRENCH DOUBT REPORT
Do Not Think Baldwin VIII Announce
Acceptance of German Offer

Paris, July 1.-THE report again
printed here this morning that the
statement on reparations which Prem
fer Baldwin is TO make in London to-
morrow will include acceptance of
the German proposal for an impartial
intention to examine into Germany's
capacity for payment is treated in
French Official circles as incredible.
The argument once more is advanced
that no reason exists to supplant the
reparation commission by another
body.

CALVE CONCERT

TRIUMPH
Most Impressive in Beethoven's
''In Questa Tomba," and
Cesar Franck's Nocturne.

Nine. Calve, once more returned
to the concert stage, is still g re-
markablee singer and an accom-
plished actress Although it Is now
thirty years since she made her
American debut, her voice still re
tains its charm and sweetness,
though evidence OF great care in her
singing was noticeable in the re.
tardation Of the tempo in some of
her numbers.
Carmen" Of course. is insepara-
bly, linked with the name Of Calve,
and her program yesterday included
three selections from the Bizet
opera, among them, naturally, the
incompatible ''E1abanera, !" which she
invested with a dramatic interpre-
.tation rarely seen on the concert
stage. So effective was her rendi-
ton OF this number that one could
almost visualize the scene from the
opera itself as q background for
the singer.
The diversification Of her pro.
gram gave opportunity to bring out
the resonance and coloring of her
voice. She began with Handelss
ARIA de Cleopatra" and followed
this with Bellini's ''Casta Diva" but
nc remained for the third number
to show Calve at her best. This
was Beethoven's I'm Questa Tornba, .
which Chaliapin sang here earlier
In the week. Calve gave q most
impressive rendition Of this work,
and later attained q like artistic
triumph in Cesar Franck's 'Noc-

AGRICULTURAL NEWS NOTES
Cost Accounting In Wool Production


The Department of Rural Eco
Monies of O. S. T., has recently pub
lished some very interesting data on
the cost of producing wool in South
eastern Ohio. A group of men pro
ducing fine wool in Morgan and No
BILE counties have kept accurate ac-
counts of the items Of cost pertain
ing to the sheep business during the
alast two years. They are now in
their third year of record keeping.
As usual, there is a great variation
between the low costs and high costs.
In cases where the increase in
value due TO lambs was not credited
to sheep, the cost per pound Of wool
was invariably high. The increase
in value of lambs reduces wool costs.
The Morgan county farmer who kept
cost account records had a final wool
charge ranging from $00739 to So
asa per pound.
The larger flocks have a lower la
bor charge per sheep than the small
er flock
The fIocks with the lowest cost
per pound OF wool fed considerable
legume hay. The five llocks with
low est cost fed no timothy hay.

Pouitrv Records

About a dozen progressive poul-
t1ymen of Morgan county have been
keeping demonstration farm records
tor the last year. These farmers eX-
pect to have a meeting soon to COM
pare methods and results of certain
poultry practices.
Three or four farmers have not
yet sent in final reports. OF the
records sent in, the best labor in
come was $1435.40. The farm max
ing this labor income on poultry
alone had a flock Of hens numbering
4S0 for the entire year This flock
produced eggs with feed cost OF
121a cents per dozen.
The yearly egg production per her
ranged from 1867 eggs to 166 eggs
per hen. The feed costs per dozen
eggs ranged from 9.3 cents to 19
cents per dozen.

COST OF GOVERNMENT

United States Senator McCormicl, asserted recently, says the Chicago Tribune that the present Republican national administration has reduced the national pay roll to a par with the pre-war expenditure for simil- ar purpose, and has brought federal government costs to nornlalcy.
 That" he says, .'is something that is not true of municipal govern ments or state governments. For every three dollars expended by fed eral government, state and muniei- pal bodies are spending five dollars, he adds.
 That, the Chicago paper believes, is subject worthy of emphasis, and elaboration. Because we are all forced to make income tax returns and because we did not make such returns prior to the great war, we are inclined to feel that it is the federal government which is im- posing the greatest tax burdens upon us. That is not fair attitude.
 The facts are that approximately s2,000,000,000 a year now collected by the federal government is re- quired to meet fixed charges grow ing out of the war, not for current expenses. We require $95O, 900 ,OOO year for interest on the public debt; s35O, 1000, ,O00 for sinking fund !; s250,000,000 for pensions, and s45O, 000,000 for the veterans bureau. Thus an estimate of $3,100, ,00O, 900 federal revenue needed for the next fiscal year means SLIGO, ,O00, ,OO0 for ordinary federal government ac- tivities.
 At the same time an estimate of the cost of forty-eight state govern
The Nenana news., 1923-04-24

ments for like period is s1,000,- 00,000; of municipal governments something more than S2,O00,00O,000 and of county governments in forty eight states at least S50o,0O0,0O0. It seems fair then to put cost of S1 ,10O,000,O00 for current federal government activities against a to- tai cost of s3,50O, 100000 for state, county, and municipal governments.
 In such circumstances it becomes quite apparent that the attention of taxpayers should be directed to economy and caution in state and To- cal governments as it has been in national government, where total expenses have been reduced from s5, ,538, ,040.689 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1921, to an estim- ated s3,I0O,0OO,00O for the next ifs cal year.
 State and local governments are not making similar reductions. They are running amuck in many sections, particularly with the issuance of bonds which find a ready market because they are tax free, but which must be paid with heavy interest charges.

RECOMMENDS LASH
 FOR DRUG PEDDLERS

TORONTO, April 19- Police Chief Samuel J. Dickson recon mends the lash for persons convict ed of peddling narcotics. Imprison- ment is not sufficient deterrent upon those living on the profits de- rived from the sale of drugs to ad- diets, he declares, and fines are usually paid by the "higher up'' in the traffic. ..
 Police records for the year show a heavy increase in the number of convictions urIer the Drug Act.
 The provincial penal law already provides the use of the lash on highway robbers whose victims are cruelty treated.
The Nenana news., 1923-04-24

Word has come from Col. Got wals that the Nenana hospital will continue to function at least until the end of June. The colonel takes the logical view that there is need of the hospital at present and that there will continue to be need for it as long as there are large forces of railroad workers employed close to Nenana. Perhaps by the end of June it will be apparent to the authori- ties that the need of a hospital at this central point Of the railroad is a permanent one In the mean time, Nenana should endeavor to evolve some plan for keeping the hospital open in case of the with drawal of federal support.
