by French Premier, Who Re-
fuses to Reduce Teutons'
Debt

Paris.-Germany can obtain evacua
ton of the Ruhr only by paying re
parations. She can assure attenu
alton OF the rigors of the occupation
by ceasing passive resistance and she
can win no reduction In the amOun
she owes France unless the allied
creditors OF France see fit to give
France credit for equal amounts on hel
war debts
These are the conclusions of Pre-.
mier Poincare's reply to MARQUIS
Curzon's reparation note of recent
date. The French government also
expresses it's belief that the allies can
agree on methods Of bringing about
the execution Of the treaty by con-
tinuing courteous negotiations.
The British proposals for a re-esti-
mate of Germany's capacity for pay
ment and Lord Curzon's suggestion
that the question of the legality of
the occupation of the Ruhr be refer
red to The Hague are rejected and
the French position is reaffirmed as
remaining unchanged.
France holds that a settlement of
the question of interallied water debts
should wait upon final payment by
Germany of $4,000, 900, 900 gold marks
in reparations comprised in the A and
B bonds, official opinion of the reply,

ES HOMES AND PROPERTY
Damage Estimated at 100000 10
Done by Torrent After Irri-
cation Project Dam
Gives Way

Fowler, Colo, -Approximately 10O(
ppersOns are homeless Thursday and
damage estimated at 100000 has been
done by flood waters which rushed
down the valleys of the Apishapa and
Arkansas rivers Wednesday ED
Thursday following the breaking Of an
irrigation project dam near here.
Five hundred persons have moved
out Of the danger zone in North La
junta, according to word received here,
and approximately that number fled
from their homes in the valley below
the dam. Observers saw a dozen
houses, and many bodies of cattle and
horses as well as huge trees, tumbling
along on the crest of the flood after
the dam broke Wednesday.
Warned of the breaking of the dam,
scores of families hastily moved their
household goods from the path of the
water and most of them, it was report
ed here, were able to save most of
their livestock.
When the dam washed out, a wall
Of water twenty-five feet high swept
down the channel of the Apishapa riv-
er, then spread out over territory
mile wide. As it spread out, the depth
decreased to four of five feet, observ-
ers said, but took trees, houses and
livestock in its path.
The wall of water swept the valley
from the dam, which is thirty-siX
miles south of Fowler, to the junction |
Of the Apishapa and the Arkansas riv-
er, three miles east of here, travelling
ut speed Of five miles an hour,
Then it swelled the flood in the Ar
kansas, which, because of recent rains
and cloudbursts, already had risen to
l point near that attained during the
disastrous Pueblo flood of June, 1921.
The city of Fowler is not in the path
