Can Be Reached

London, Aug. 6.--(By the A. P.)-r
The German memorandum in reply e
the allied protocol outlining plans
for putting the Dawes reparatlor pros
gram into effect was handed to the
allied representatives in Downing
street this morning by the chiefs Of
the German delegation.
In consequence Premier MacDon-
aid is urging all possible expedition
so that another plerary meeting Of
the international conference can be
held today. The Germans worked
all night and completed their reply
to the protocol at 3 o'clock this
morning.
American experts who read the
German memorandum and covering
letter submitted to the allies today
said they did not believe the objec-
tions raised were likely to prove a
serious bar to the success of the
program the inter-allied body had
worked out for making the Dawes
plan effective.
1t was announced that the "big
lOuICecu VI Iuc COHleIeHCe "Vuiu

The memorandum was an 18-page
document accompanied by covering
letter. 1t was broad survey of the
German point of view of the whole
program of the inter allied confer
ence as worked out for the launching
of the Dawes plan. 1t did not GO
into details but presented the Ger
man viewpoint regarding the experts
report on defaults and sanctions on
the fiscal and economic unity of
Germany and on the transfer of re-
paration payments, the three divi-
sions into which the conference work
was divided.
In the covering letter which the
Germans presented, two important
questions outside the conference were
raised. The first was the military
evacuation of the Ruhr and the 9th
er zones outside the Rhineland and
the other was the question of the
retention Of allied railway men in
the Ruhr.

Activities of state and federal Of

tion Of livestock in the state just
now are centcred on the eradication
of tuberculosis. Funds for this pur-

It is the North Dakota office Of the
Bureau Of Animal Industry, divi-

TAX CUT NOT
FULL 25 PCT,
IN ALLCASES
Varies According to Amount
of Bonded Indebtedness,
Etc. Under Proposed Law
PETITIONS ARE FILED

The exact cut in taxes which
would be effected in Bismarck and
Burleigh county, if the proposed
tax limitation measure of the State
Tax Payers Association were enact
ed into law on November 4, is some
what problematical. Because of the
exceptions, such as special local i'm
provement taxes, etc. the estimated
cut in the city of Bismarck would
be about 18, and not rs percent, as
indicated on the face of the pro-
posed law. The decrease would
range from Is to 25 percent in many
tax districts, it is estimated.
Voters of North Dakota will de-
eide on November whether taxes
in the state for the years 1925. 1926
and 1927 shall be reduced by the
law for which petitions bearing 49,
700 names were filed with the Sec
retary of State yesterday.
The proposed law provides that
for the years 1925, 1926 and 1927 all
boards in the state charged with
levying taxes "must take as tho
basis of such respective levy or GER
tification, the aggregate amount Of
taxes actually levied and extended
upon the tax record in the same
taxing district for the year 1923. and
the amounts levied for each of said
years of 1925, 1926 and 1927 must
be limited to not exceed seventy
five percent Of the amount levied
and extended upon the tax record
in 1928"
Exceptions provide that the linn
itations shall not apply to special
assessments for local improvements,
sinking funds, interest on bonds,
the county tuition levy, levies for
the purpose of exterminating grass
hoppers or destroying gophers or
similar pests, state taxes now pro-
vided by statute and fixed at def
mite rate in mills, not state hail
taxes.
1t is further provided that appro-
priations of the legislature for the
biennial period ending June 30, 1925
shall not be affected.

LOEB ADMITS
HE Is ACTUAL
.FRANKSSLAYER
Alienist, Testifying in Case,
Says Youth Told Him of
Striking Fatal Blow
HAD BEEN DENIED
Both He and Leopold Had Ac-
cused Each Other-LOeb
Devoid of any Emotion

Chicago, Aug. 6.-Dr. Bernard
Glueck of New York, testified at
the Franks hearing this morning
that Richard Loeb, in his mental
examination of him, had admitted
that he struck the blow with cold
chisel that killed Bobby Franks.
Throughout the investigation of
the connection of Loeb and Nathan
Leopold Jr., with the murder the
matter of who actually struck the
fatal blow had been an unsolved
mystery. Both youths, while con-
Tossing to the kidnapping and slay-
ing, accused the otherA
Two defense alienists previously
on the witness stand had failed,
they said, to ask the boys as to
which struck the fatal blow and the
state had been unable to bring out
? the point. Loeb remained impassive
when DR.. Glueck testified that he
had killed Bobby Franks. Leopold
leaned forward, grimace on his
face, smiled slowly and talked with
his counsel.
The statement that Loeb actually
had struck the fatal blow was
| brought out under questioning by
Benjamin Bacharach of defense
counsel.
"Did Loeb say who struck the
blow?" asked Bacharach. "He told
me throughout all details that he,
Loeb, struck the blow" replied DR..
G]ueck.
Judge Caverly and attorney re-
mained impassive as had Loeb when
the testimony was offered, Judge
Caverly leaning calmly on his hand,
elbow on the arm of his chair.
Spectators Miss Point
The mental pathologist spoke in
q low pitched, one toned voice and
twice within the first five minutes
was urged by Mr., Bacharach. -, tp
"speak louder please"
Talking along in his monotolse
Mr.. Bacharach suddenly interrupted
him with a question as to whether
Loeb had admitted who struck the
fatal blow. In the same voice DR..
Glueck replied that Loeb had ad
mitted throughout his examination
of him that he, Loeb, struck the
blow.
It was not apparent that the spec
tators had caught the real signif
canoe of the remark. There was
nothing to indicate that they mad
even caught the remark.
~ took up with Loeb the Franks
.drime and asked him to tell of it"
testified DR.. Glueck. "Loeb replied
in a most matter of fact way, mar
rated without any squeemishness
all the details and planning of the
crime and I was amazed at the
absolute absence of any normal
feeling. He showed no remorse, no
regret, no passion or love and as
he kept on talking it became evident
to me that he was utterly devoid Of
emotional responses. 1t became
wholly incomprehensive to me ex-
cept that felt he had very alb
normal personality.
~ never saw such profound dis
parity. He told me of his little bro
ther, of whom he was most fond,
yet he had considered him as pos
sible victim. Even here he showed
no emotional response. He explain
ed his matter of factness by saying
that he had nothing within him
that might call forth any such re-
sponse."

UNCLE SAM KNOWS

When the government recently
sent out a crop report it state among
other things that the farmers appear
to be in better financial condition
than they were year ago, and back
ed up the statement by declaring
the mail-order houses report increas-
ed business and announce that they
now expect their receipts to run as
heavy this year as in 1923. The mer-
chant who stops advertising because
business grew little dull, oughtto
do some thinking over this, for it
means nothing more than that the
mail-order house is taking advantage
of his shorts sightednefs. They're
making hay while the summer sun is
shining, taking the dollars the home
merchant could get by going after
them through bis hometown paper.
When the year ends the mail-order
house will have profit as large as
it had last year, and the home mer-
chant will have only what came to
him unsolicited. Uncle Sam says
more money is being spent by the
farmers. If home merchants hope
to get it they'll have to use printers

are being sent out in summer as well

The little boy Of the White House

Here we have a bright, manly boy,

Again the nation mourns; the peo-
pie here and of other lands sympath-
ize with the President and Mrs. Cool
idge in their sad hour of bereavement
It is sad to think that the young
should be cut off in the bloom of
health and life, but such is the man

well. We cannot understand why it
sit is not for us to know at least not
now, and what if we should? This
is a secret for eternity, and by faith
