PITTSBURGH CARPENTERS
STRIKE CAUSES TIE-UP
Construction Totaling $4,000, 900
at Standstill During Fight Over
Working Conditions.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associa ted Press
PITTSBURGH, April One thou
sand union carpenters of the Pitts
burgh Council went on strike this
morning when their representatives
reported inability to reach an agree
ment on working conditions with the
Master Builders Association of Allie
ghcny County. w. ]. Kelly, business
agent of the union, reported that
ninety-three Independent employers
had signed the agreement and that
their men would remain at work.
The strike, according to the build
ers' association, will tie up work on
contracts valued at s30,000000.
The carpenters and the builders had
agreed on a wage scale of S11 q day,
but the men demanded conditions un-
der which planning mill employees
would have been unionized.

will take over the functions of the
Reichsbank and gradually absorb
Herr Schacht's rentenmarks
If the plan is accepted, 1t is esti-
mated that stabilization will be under
be under way in four months.
Gives Allies Excess Wealth.
II is notable that the report would
schedule all payments so that excess
wealth in Germany would be con-
stantly transferred to the reparations
commission with a minimum shock
to the financial system, while at the
same time other funds would be mo-
bilized through domestic and inter-
national loans to apply to liquidation
of debts.
The partial moratorium Of four
years may yield increasing sums in
accordance with continued prosperity
in Germany. In this respect the Reich
must assure delivery of raw materi
ais, functioning of the officers of
compensation and, above all, main
tenance of the armies of occupation
at the Rhine bridgeheads.
The total payment for the first year
is 1000, 900, 900 gold marks; for the
second year, 1900, 200, 900; the third
year, 1,400,000.000, and the fourth
year, 1000, 900, 900.
Start of Fifth Year.
The fifth year is to commence with
an estimated 2,50O.000, 900, which the
experts estimate as the minimum an
nual payment thereafter. The So
called co efficient OF prosperity will
begin to operate about the-sixth year,
and some estimates place the pay
ments then we'll above 5000, ,00O, 900
annually.
1t is well to recall here that the
reparations total as fixed by the last
allied accord is still $4,000. .000, 900
gold marks. The experts do not fix a.
total. as the report simply recon-
mends what Germany can pay.
The 100000. 600 mark instaliments
should be augmented each year after
1928 proportionately to the multiple
Of G1rmany's increased wealth, all of
which will be figured on growth of
population, increase in consumption
nf staple articles and in exports. For
example, If the reparationS commits
sion is convinced that the wealth of
Germany has increased 3 per cent in
any given year it will demand that
the annual total be increased proper
tiona te1y.
The sums included in the two and
a half billion mark instalmentS are as
follows: Budget receipts, 1900 200. 900
gold marks; receipts from railroads,
660,00O,0 900; special tax on railroads.
300,00O,000; debentureS on farm in
dustries, 100000. 900.
IT is TO be noted that the principal

taxes on products such as sugar, al
cohol, tobacco and salt. Revenue on
so-called monopolies would be includ-
ed in the ordinary budget receipts.
Source of Evil.
1t may be recalled that the spirit OF
the report was conceived throughout
on the theory that all payments by
Germany, from the first to last, should
be based on a painstaking estimate OF
the coeff1cient of her economic recoV-
cry. One other political consideration
almost as important as the plan it
self-is that it's acceptance or reJec-
ton by the allies or Germany must
finally unmask the source of evil in
Europe. If Dawes report fails, 1t
will at least force showdown In
Europe.
The report does not take up the
question of French military occupa-
tion though by implication 1t clearly
invites the French and Belgians to
abandon productive exploitation OF
the Ruhr.
5000 ,OOO, 900 Marks Abroad.
On the question of Germany's ex-
patr1ated wealth the estimates vary,
though the report written by Reginald

McKenna puts the total at 5000, 900.
600 gold marke

McKenna puts the total at 5000, ,000,-
900 gold marke.
The report in few pages merely
indicates the nature Of the securities
which the committee has been able to
locate and points out the significance
and probable value which such wealth
would have to the Dawes committee
in its efforts to stabilize the budget.
The report. however, is regarded as
supplementary to the main report of
the first committee. Almost half OF
this wealth is supposed to be seoues-
tered in the United States. most Of it
under Shines control
The last important feature of the
Dawes recommendations is one which
will go unnoticed perhaps, but which
is necessary for the whole structure
1t is proposed to name a commission
which will be changed with the move
ments of funds, emission of notes and
loans and payments of bond maturi-
ties, etc, all Of which might be used

FIRE DESTROYS
SANFORD GARAGE

Sanford. Nov. S.-The large two
story wooden garage owned by Cur
tbs r. Johnson, local dealer for Max
we'll and Chrysler automobiles, was
destroyed by fire this evening, caus-
ing q loss roughly estimated at $25,
600. In the building were about Is
automobiles, several of which were
new. With the exploding of gaso-
line tanks, the fire was highly spec
tacular at times.
The fire was discovered shortly be-
fore 10. about 10 minutes after mir
Johnson had closed the place for the
right. Although the cause is not
definitely known. it is thought to
have been an overheated stove in the
otIice.
The building was located on South
Main street on a part of the old fair
grounds and was at one time one of
the exhibition halls. Mr.. Johnson
purchased the property last spring
from Moses Moulton, and had since
laid out considerable on repairs and
alterations. 1t was occupied by the
Caaco Motor Co, before Mr.. johnson
took possession Of the building.
Automobiles were stored on both
floors, and there was no opportunity
to save any of them or any of the
st ock of supplies as the, fire had
gained great Roadway before the fire
alarm was rung in. AS there was no
wind the flames were easily confined
to the building and there was no
damage to surrounding property.
