Dawes Committee of Experts
Agrees on Report on
Reparations.

Paria-The report of the first com
mitteo Of experts under BrgadierGcn.
eral Charles G Dawes, which is pruc.
tically agreed upon by the experts, Is
based on these fundamental findings:
The German people must pay as
much in taxes as any Of the people
Of the allied countries. Germany must
pay the maximum of her capacity in
operations. The German economic
machine must be free to function UNI
Ter German control, unhindered by
any interference from the outside.
Minimum sums must be paid at
once, or in the immediate future on
rcparations these to be increased in
proportion to the revival of Germany's
prosperity and according to her econ
omIc conditions.
In order to put Germany in a posi-.
ton to carry out her part OF the pro,
gram, the experts propose to set up
an international bank, to have ex.
elusive right to the issue of German
currency on a gold basis.
The suggestion Of the experts that
Germanys economic machinery be
freed of any interference from the
outside means that the French and
Eelgians must hand over the admin.

verdict at Grdner's Phoenix trial De-

according to her own story.
Mrs. ardner said she realized the
operation if successful would not
cause her husband to be liberated, but
that she thought it would change his
mental frame and restore his reason

Thus, she added, his conduct as a

GARRETT P. SERVISS TELLS OF

By GARRETT P. SERVISS.
Surface of Planet So Like Earth's as
Belief It Is Inhabited.

"HERE will be stirring times

best they can, with small means,
In the great astronomical cam

Mars. The intention is, IL it

vention Of the telescope first put
it in danger Of discovery.
What is this great secret. con-
corning another and an inaccessi-
BILE world. which so excites the
inhabitants Of our globe that
many feel as deep an interest in
the attempts to discover it as if
it were something which would
make them richer, like a gold
mine, or healthier, like a new
specific. or happier, like a fresh
philosophy?
It is q question of life. We do
not wish to be alone in the uni
verse. We should be glad to
know that there Is at least one
other planet in this solitary solar
system that carries upon its
round back thinking beings, an
good as ourselves, or better. Dis
appointed by the moon, which in
near enough to show the dreadful
scars Of q worldwide catastrophe,
and by Venus, which, though the
earth's twin sister by stature, per-
sistently hides her face behind an
iinpenetrable atmospheric veil. our
fading hopes have been flattered
by Mars, which alone Of all the
suns eight eligible attendants has
so far exhibited q geographic re-
semblance to the earth.
That resemblance is the magic
which now draws the eyes and
thoughts Of millions of the re-
fined descendants Of the earth's
original cave men to the planet
Mars. as its pursuit Of its ellipti.
cal orbit brings 1t unwontedly
near. Mars shows geographical

It may harbor beings resembling
ourselves, at least in intelligence.

certainty, unless, he also detects
signs Of wreckage or Of desertion.
The astronomer, gazing into the
interplanetary offing of the earth,
sees the planet Mars bearing
striking likeness to the earth 1t.
self, with shades, outlines and
markings which amazingly re.
semble the shapes Of continents
and oceans.
He sees Mars rotating on an
axis having almost exactly the
same inclination as that Of the
earth. He finds that its rotation
time differs scarcely more than
half an hour from Il earth's.

That g Ford Idea.

You know that Henry Ford bought the wayside Inn at
association connected with it. One thing would surprise the
old ladies and gentlemen that used to 60 the Inn in the
early days they could come back now and that is the
roll OF the Inn as Henry Ford it, In fact the Young
that work at the Inn about much surprised
their ancestors would have been.
Henry Ford who believes with Abraham Lincoln that there
should be no discrimination against women applies the regular
Ford system Of wages to the young ladies that wait on the
liable, make up the beds and help wash the dishes.
One New England young lady that got 81 week before
wage that Ford and is going be increased to Sc
soon, in accordance with his general plan.
That's quite change from the days when they were build

Around its poles he sees broad,
white, circular caps, which slowly
disappear by growing smaller and
smaller as the summer sun Of
Mars rises first upon one and
then upon the other, just as II
they consisted of snow, which
melts away with the increasing
heat, exactly as happens on the
earth in the polar zones.
He sees that. asa Mars goes
round the sun, it keeps its pole
inclinging always the same way.
as also does the earth, the con.
sequence being that Mars has
the same change of seasons that
we have, except that each sea-
son is longer because Mars year
Is longer, owing to its greater
distance from the sun, and con.
seQuent larger orbit.
Now all Of these things are
unquestionable; every astrono-
mer and every observer who has
sufficiently powerful telescope
at command sees them. There is
no dispute about their existence.
They prove that Mars is a planet
very like the earth. But they
do not prove that it may not be
like a deserted ship, its living
inhabitants having disappeared.
The reasons for assuming this
possibility are that Mars seems
to have a very rare atmosphere,
which would make 1t excessively
cold. and that the apparent alb.
sence OF watery vapor indicates
that the planet is nearly if not
quite dried up.
But against this is the exist.
ence OF very enigmatical, almost
invisible, lines which have been
called Canals" and which a few
astronomers think may be the
work OF the Marian inhabitants,
