BY Cable to The Star.
LONDON, September 22.-The COM
munique which was issued follow
ing Prime Minister Baldwin's inter-
view with Premier Peincare, in which
the public was assured that a COM
mon agreement has been reached and
that no difference of purpose or
divergence of principle exists be-
tween them, has aroused much sur
prise III England.
Is this communique the usual Of
fetal make believe, >ar has Mr.. Bald
win eaten his own words at NJ. Poin-
cares luncheon table?
If the statement is to be accepted
at its face value, it represents a flnal
most public and complete humiliation
of British craftsmanship in the
memory of any one now living.
Lord CurZon's great Indictment OF
public mind. No more devastating
criticism of the proceedings of one
great power was ever made by
another. 1t left no visible point OF
tries, and eliminated in the declara-
tion that the whole Ruhr invasion
was illegal Premier Poincare's re-
ply widened the breach, and every
grown more harsh and unyielding.
Collapse Continuing.
Meanwhile the collapse of Ger
many, under pressure of the policy
which the British government de-
clared Illegal, has proceeded with
gathering momentum, and every one
believes the end Is near.
In these circumstances Premier
Raldwin's plan to visit NJ. Poincare
aroused some criticism, but the gem
eral view prevailed that he was to
make courtesy call only.
The statement of the results of the
interview has been hailed by the Paris
press as a complete surrender of the
British premier and a restoration of
the entente on the basis of accept
ance by England of the "fait accom-
pill
The writer prefers to await further
DEVELOPMENTS before accepting this
reading of events. All depends upon
the real character of Premier Bald
win. which is still unknown to the
public. He had scarcely been heard
of until after the fall of the Lloyd
George coalition government. Every
one agrees that he Is an amiable and
an honest man, but no one, knows
whether he is a strong man. His
hostility to Premier Poincare is no
torious, and if it is true that he has
walked into the latters parlor and
offered unconditional surrender he
will go to swell the list of discred-
tied politicians who swarm about
Westminster.
Still, it is almost safe to say that
aside from Mr.. Baldwin there is no
statesman in any party who now
commands the public confidence or
creates ripple of public interest
Lord Robert Cecil. perhaps. arouses
the highest degree of respect on ac-
count of his high character and pure
and enlightened motives, but he is
without party following.
If Premier Baldwin proves a man
of straw it is difficult to see who will
succeed him. The feeling prevails that
the bankruptcy in statesmanship may
even give David Lloyd George an
other chance. His stock is very low,
and nothing he has done since his
fall has tended to raise il. But his
wits are so keen and his eIectioneer-
ing genius is so incompatible that
more unlikely things than his revival

In the meantime. another phase of
the international situation is assum-
ing Importance. British trade, de-
pressed by the failure of the export
market is now alarmed by losses in
the home markets. The attack comes
chiefly from France, where low ex-
change enables manufacturers to un-

land. The Nottingham lace trade and
the Yorkshire woolen trade have been
especially hard hit by imports from
Lyon and Roubaix.
The coming imperial conference is
expected to be chiefly occupied with
consideration of trade protection and

CORPORATIONS TO
FIGHT PENALTY
Supreme Court to be Asked to Decide
on Right of State to
Collect Ten Per Cent.
fBv Associated Press Leased Wire)


Madison, Wis.--Court action is ex-
pected by the state tax commission to
be commenced soon by Wisconsin COR
porations in an effort to have declared
invalid the new law providing a PEN
atty to be- assessed against income
taxpayers who make fraudulent or
incorrect returns.
The commission reports that it is
now assessing ten per cent interest,
as we'll as penalties against corpora
tions and individuals found to have
withheld income tax payments from
the state. These additional assess
Iments are made under the law enacted
by the 1923 legislature giving the
commission authority to impose the
Interest rate as well as penalty up
to two hundred per cent of the total
delinquent tax.
Constitutionality of the statute is
questioned by attorneys for certain
corporations, who are reported to have
announced their intention to COM
mence legal action in an effort to have
the law held invalid,
The attorney general has evaded
passing an opinion on validity of the
law, taking the position that it was
a question for court determination.
The law involved is one of the most
important enacted by the last session
of the legislature.

dropping it in corner on the floor.
Conley told him not to leave the gar
ment there, he said, saying he could
put it on nail.
