WARNS AGAINST DANGER
 OF WAR BONDS
Finance Ministry Fears
 Many Americans Due <. For Losses
lLeased Wire to Age.Heraldl

N g48S iLoaSod Wlre 70 Ago-Her8tu) z BERLIN, Sept 27.--Serious Alarm ever the widespread American sepcula- tion. in German war and municipal bonds is being felt in the German ministry of finance and there is fear that Americans, through no fault of this country, are due for some heavy losses. It has been learned that Hans Luther, minister or finance, and his associates fear that the gambling fever in Wall Street and elsewhere in the United States may lead to new reverses l by credulous American buyers, which in turn would react seriously against Germany.
 Fear Swinging Charge
 Reports lately indicate increased dabbling by Americans in German bonds. In sources close to the min istry of finance 1t is realized that if 1 the American public loses heavily on war an municipal bonds, due to the tact that they have not been valorized, Americans probably will claim that Germany is guilty of 'swindling," as many charged when thousands of Amer leans were burned by their speculations tn marks.
 Officials of the finance ministry made it clear today that so far as it 1t ! is concerned there will 7be neither fhlorization nor interest on. the bonds. This is reiteration of the views which Herr. Luther already has expressed be- tore the yaloriza tion committee of the teichstag.
 Church Demands Valorization
 On the other hand, the public de- mand for the valorization of war loans Is increasing. The Catholic church, led by Cardinal Bertram, archbishop of Breslau, is demanding the valorizae ton of the church's holdings of war loans. Cardinal Bertram contends that to wipe out the debts by Initiation is contrary to the principles of Christian morality. <
 The finance ministry, however, has said that any valorization would be tontrary to the spirit of the Dawes plan and would make it difficult, or perhaps impossible, to deliver the pay ments which the Dawes formula pro- vide The valorization question, one of the most important in post-war Ger many, was by no means sealed through Luther's declarations, especially as the reichstag committee: wa0ts the inter est aid. This means that the fight on the subject will be transferred to the k floor of the reiehstag.

The difficulty in settling the Russian question was a legacy from the Lloyd George government Lloyd George waged war on Russia and now the Russians have presented counter claims to us for damage he caused them.

PANIC THREATS

Pennsylvania and Ohio
Workers Angered at
Moves to Swing Votes,
BY LOWELL AIELLETT
Times Staff Correspondent

PITTSBURGH. Pa. Nov. l.
Many stories are circulating in Ohio
and Pennsylvania concerning efforts
TO brighten labOring men to abandon
the support of La Toilette and
Wheeler. In Cleveland tire story is
told that one auto accessory man.
ufacturer posted a notice a week
ago saying that unless Coolidge is
elected only the foremen need re-

something like an insurrection was
threatened until the request with
drawn.
Efforts Of this kind, coupled with
propaganda predicting a business de
preston. appear to form the greater
part OF the Republican campaign in
the closing days in these two States.
Their effectiveness remains TO be
seen. But the La FOllette-Wheeler
organizations seem completely con-
f1dent Of holding the whole indus
trial vote in both States.
The only likelihood OF Pennsyl-
vania workers being idle as the re-
suit OF the election is seen in the

tricts the miners leaders have called
on all the anthracite workers to lay
off election day in order TO work and
vote for Lafollette.
In Pennsylvania the sections which
the La Toilette organization declare
their certainty Of victory are Pitts
burgh and the western mill counties,
the mining regions and the railroad
centers. such as Altoona. In Ohio
the cities of Cleveland. Columbus.
Toledo, as we'll as the factory towns
in the Nahoning Valley, are regarded
safe. \ ffty-ffty chance in Cincin-
natl is assured also.
The situation in Ohio is such that
predictions that La Toilette will
carry the State are freely made by
his supporters. In Pennsylvania the
expectation seems TO be only that he
will run Coolidge a close second.

1t is not necessary to rush man

Avoid facing the one you block, but
take a position which will give the
impression that you are about to
catch the ball. If you do that, an

block you, and you will have taken
