GERMAN GOVERNMENT
BEGINS SPECULATION
UNDER A PRETENSE.
Claims to Be Trying to
Stabilize Mark But in
Reality Gambling.
BY GEORGE WHITE.
Special Cable to The san Antonio Light
and the, Chicago Daily News.
I-n....ri.rht lNGg

'Ops lS-''
Berlin, Feb. 16.-Jealous of the
fortunes amounting to billions OF
marks made by private spectators on
the stock markets in the last few
months. the German government itself
has now gone in for speculation. Thus
far close to $J,000,000 have been
thrown on the open market inside of
five days by the Reichsbank supposed
" to stabilize the German exchange,
but in reality, according to foreign
financial experts here, to double or
treble the German holdings in foreign
money.
The money thus used by the Reichs-
bank had been saved for the repara-
tons due January Is and 81. The
government had no scruple of using
it on the ground that the treaty of
Versailles and the agreement entered
into at the London conference as to
imdenity payments were made null
and void by the French occupation of
the Ruhr valley. As an illustration
of how little faith the Reichsbank
has in the present rise in the value
of the mark as compared with the
dollar it is cited here that the Reichs-
bank is paying 10000 paper marks
for 30 gold mark piece whereas its

BRITISH INTEND TO
ANNOUNCE POLICY ON
OTHER WAR DEBTS
With U. S. Settlement in
Sight France and Italy
to Be Questioned.
by HAL O'FEAHERTY.
Special cable 10 The San Antonio Light
and the Chicago Daily News.
COpyTiEht 1928

London, Feb. 16.-Some definite
statement regarding British policy
with reference to intcr-allied war
debts is expected as soon as word is
received from Washington concerning
the disposition Of the British debt
funding plan. In the forthcoming
announcement, the British will clear
away doubts as TO policy that were
caused by the Balfour note of last
August in which the Allies were ask.
ed either to arrange for n general
cancellation OF debts or to fund their
debts TO Great Britain.
Now that Great Britain has ar
ranged to fund its debt TO the United
States it is logical 20 assume that she
expects France and Italy to fund
their debts 10 the British. For the
moment the British government in
proceeding on the assumption that
France ought TO pay, that the French
harbOr no ideas regarding the cancel
latiOn or reputation of their debt
to Great Britain, but on the other
hand do not expect the British TO push
for settlement.
The impression exists in some quar-
ters that Prime Minister Bonar Law
is willing to cancel the BalfOur note
and meet the French and Italians on
some other basis, but that assumption
appears 10 be without foundation.
BOnar Law first offered to denOunce
the Balfour note during the Decem.
Der conference on reparatiOns, but he
made that offer conditional on the
Withholding Of the French action in
the Ruhr basin. That condition not
having been fulfilled, the policy ex-
pressed in the Balfour note holds good
and the British government must soon
tackle the delicate job Of bringing
France into some sort of financial ar
rangement. As each day brings
further evidence that France is en-
gaging herself more deeply in the
economic war with Germany, British
business men see their hopes of finan-
cial stability for Europe fade farther
into the future. Perhaps for years
there will be no incentive to offer big
financial sacrifices in the hope of re-
storing peace.
If Congress acts favorably on the
British funding terms which everyone
here expects, then the British will
feel justified in saying to the French
"what are you going to do toward
paying your debts?" Naturally Wash
ingtOn will be expected to ask a SINH
lar question regarding the French
debt to the United States.
Grave consequences hang upon the
answers to these inquiries, Any I'M
due pressure upon the French might
urge them to more stubborn coercion
of the German industrialists. How
ever, the belief prevails in London
that the United States could offer
sufficient inducements to persuade
the French to change their policy in
the Ruhr region.

gold value even before the war was
So or less than 10000 paper marks.
Innumerable gold pieces have sud-
denly appeared as the result of the
Reichsbank's rather irresponsible Of
fer, but every single gold piece handed
in is paid for in full by the treasury
office. In Berlin it is generally be-
lieved that the value of the marks
will drop again soon in view of the
fact that in the last week the issue
Of paper money has exceeded three
trillion marks.
Recently prominent German
banker pointed out that before the
war the German national debt. in
Guiding all the money in circulation
exceeded two trillion gold marks.
"At present" he said, sour debt,
not including the reparations debt,
of course. is less than the one billion
gold marks which the Reichsbank still
holds. In other words il Germany
could get rid of the indemnity pay
ments she could not only withdraw
all the paper money in circulation
and redeem it with gold, but would
be better off than before the war
which she lost"
The only comment on this state
ment is the question, "who won the
war?r

Whenever anyone in my family

There is always the possibility that

Harding Would Avoid Com
plications by Holding Off
Until Last Days.
MANY URGING MONDELL
Friends of House Leader
Point Out His Qualifi-
cations for Job.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

Copyright, by The San Antonio Light
Washington, ID. C.. Feb. 16-Presi-
dent Harding probably will defer max
ing any announcement of his choice of
successor to Secretary Falls Of the
Interior Department until the closing
days OF the present session and pos
sibly not until after March 4.
The situation which prompts delay
is rather delicate as well as compli-
Gated. Two weeks ago the President
let it be known that he would give out
the name of the new secretary of the
interior the following week. but he did
not. Inquiries from newspaper CORE
spondents have resulted in a uniform
answer at the White House that the
President had not chosen anyone as
yet.
lt is a fOregone conclusion, of
course. that the President is not plan
ming TO add some unknown person to
his official family and that the choice
will be made from someone now in
public life. But the pressure upon
the President has come from his own
friends and whatever selection he
makes is bound to prove disappointing
10 some group.
MOndell Is Urged.
There has been a we'll defined move
msnt in the House of Representatives
for instance. to urge the appointment
of Frank W. Mondell. Republican
leader. Arguments have been ad-
vanced to Mr.. Harding that Mr.. Mon
dell not only knows the problems of
the Interior Department because of his
own experience in the West with pub
lie lands and mineral resources. but
that be is intimately acquainted with
the intricate questions arising daily
out Of the Interpretation of existing
laws. Some of the laws were spon- |
sOred by Mr.. Mondell himself after his |
term in the House. He halls from |
Wyoming which satisfies the require
npeDt that the secretary Of the interior |
be a Western man.
4 steady stream OF members of the
House have been telling the President
the merits of Mr.. Mondell for secre-
tsry Of the interior. It's one of the
curious phases Of life that this goes on,
for IL there is anybody in Washington
who has been in intimate touch with
Leader MondelI and knows his qualifi-
CATIONS. it is the President himself.
Mr.. Mondcll has persuaded some of
the delegations which planned TO go
up to the White House to refrain from
doing 50. 1t puts him in an embar-
RAISING position because the truth is
he is not seeking the office.
Those members who have seen the
President about it. however. have
pointed out that in the next Congress
the Republican ma jority will be small
and there ought to be in the cabinet
man who is familiar with the member
ship In the House and with the ways
Of the House because it will be neces-
sary for the administration to tread
cautiously next session to ct its prof
ects through.
There also has sprung up q feeling ,

City Abandons Plan to In.
uestigate Public Ser
Uice Holdings.

Due TO a scarcity Of funds in the
city's treasury, plans for an audit and
appraisal Of the books of the San An
tonic Public Service Company were
abandoned mt the regular meeting of
the council Thursday afternoon. When
bids were presented they were al
lowed to die a natural DEATH" the
mayor pointing out that no money is
available. The bids ranged from SILL
600 upward. The object of the pro-
posed appraisal was to enable the city
TO intelligently fix rates to be charged
by the public utilities company.
Commissioners Pfeiffer and Wright
blocked an attempt to authorize the
compromising of n tax suit against
the Lone Star Cotton Mills involving
more than $4,000 in taxes, interest
and penalty charged against that firm.
Commissioner Pfeiffer said an at
tempt had been made to secure a
compromise from him but that he
had declined. The assessment and
valuation lad been agreed 10 by the
cOmpany's representatives, he said.
Since the assessment was made, the
company went into the hands Of re-
ceivers and now it wants TO pay only
the taxes due, waving the interest
and penalty. II this were accepted,
he said, it would encourage Delinquent
cy and would impose penalty on 9th
er taxpayers who pay their taxes
promptly. The city has prior lien
on the cOmpany's property, for its
taxes and interest, the tax commits
sioner said.
1t is known that the mayor and
street commissioner, through the COM
promising of tax suits involving large
sums, had hoped TO secure funds to
bolster up the budget of the street
commissioner, which now faces a huge
overdraft.
An ordinance providing that the
city pay $500 for paving in front of
the property of the Free Dispensary
Association was held up on motion
of Commissioner Wright. 1t was
claimed that former Street Commits
sioner Heuermann had promised that
the city would pay for this paving
but Commissioner Wright asked that
he confirm This promise in writing.
