a formidable weapon, as the Ger
mans know. to their cost. but 1t
costs far too much to move about
and although it has a destructive
effect upon the armies of the enemy,
it has an equally devastating effect
upon the bank balance of its
friends. After the cost of collection
in the Ruhr is deducted from the
price of the coal sweepings sent by
the Reggie to France, there will not
be much left for reparations. NJ.
Herriot, the new leader of French,
democracy, has the memory OF this
| demonstrable failure of the policy of
force to which he can appeal when
he puts into operation a policy Of
negotiation. He has thus a distinct
advantage over NJ. BRAND when the
latter tried negotiation at Cannes.
It was inevitable that the policy of
logical violence should be tried. 1t
is lucky that the experiment is over
| without producing a catastrophe.
In reckoning the chances, there
are two other favorable elements of
| the first importance to take into
consideration. Belgium has had
enough of a policy of costly blus-
| ter and America has had enough of
a policy of humiliating aloofness.
AS the success of the first expert
move depends on an international
loan, a change in American policy
is vital. And as Belgium has the
first cut of that loan, the experts
report is a welcome document to
Belgian eyes, ears and hearts.
Taking everything into account,
! all the determining conditions are so
| helpful that nothing but bad han
ding can muddle the settlement.

Cash Test Fails

The French elections were q de-
feat for that policy. There was an
uneasy feeling throughout France
that it had conspicuously failed in
its avowed object. NJ. Poincare
submitted It in advance to a cash
test and when he proposed a 90 per
cent increase in taxation. he sup
piled his own answer. The French
peasant is the most practical per
son on earth and the schedules of
the tax gatherer were more effec-
tive with him than all the thread
bare perorations of his premier. 1t
is not merely that increased taxa
ton IS always unpopular. In this
instance IT was a concrete adnlis-
sion Of failure. NJ. Poincare oc-
cupied the Ruhr in order 10 endow
Germany with the will to pay more
than she had ever paid to the com
placent NJ. Millerahd and the
pliable NJ. BRAND. France had to
pay "on account Of" Germany,
owing to the weakness Of NJ. POin-
cares predecessors. He would
make Germany disgorge her hidden
riches and thus tighten the burden
Of the poor French taxpayer. He
has been in the Westphalian coal
fields for fifteen months. At the
end OF It, France has received less
"on account Of" reparations than
in the easy going days OF NJ. BRAND,
and to save French credit from a

Business Would Settle

In spite. of these adverse condi-
tons, there are elements that make
for settlement in both countries. The
majority, such as it is. in Germany
and France alike. is prepared to &C
cept the experts report. But there
are other propitious circumstances
which afford encouragement. In
{ Germany, big business wants to
settle. Happily, the first two years
of the working of the experts pro
posals do not impose heavy obliga-
lions on German finance In pol
tiles. no part Of the community
takes such short views as business
men. I have seen them recently in a
state OF black panic at the prospect
of a labor government coming in to
destroy capital and a week later
after the Socialist government had
actually been formed, in a state Of
exuberant confidence over its mod
Grafton. They were wrong in both
their moods. Nevertheless, one
must reckon on the business tenn
! permanent.
In Gemrany, il looks at the report
and sees two years of tranquility
purchased by bearabie tribute 1t
trusts to luck as to what will happen
when the annuities thicken later on.
So German business leaders are all
| for acceptance Of the experts report
and their support will count more to
a government that has to find cash
than even q steadfast party major
ity. Since this report is further
strengthened by the anxiety of the
able settlement Of the PREPARATIONS
problem, a conciliatOry policy has a
better chance of success than the
figures Of the German elections
would Indicate.

the best of weather. If the Barons are able to get in q solid week of practice, they should be In good trim by the first of next week. There is no let-up in the practice and the candi- dates are given plenty of work.
 The locals still have another week after this one to get into shape for their opening encounter here.
 q Many Fans Are Out
 Many fans saw the Barons so through. their daily diamond doings "wednesday. The line of autos outside large srandstand is a little more thick ly speekled. Thursday the largest crowd of the spring training season is expected out to see the Barons. For in this game the first opportunity to get line on what is what in prospec- tive position players is offered.
 At third, where the battle is expected to wage the hottest, Pete Brausen and Frank Kane will oppose each other. Kane, a 1855 hitter in the Piedmont league and good fielder, Is making strong bid for the hot corner Brau- sen, who finished the season with the Barons and won many friends with his poppy work on third, realizes that he has an opponent worthy of his steel. He was out Wednesday getting around at top speed. This duel today will be one of the sideiishts of the game.
 Another position where some com pstitiye work will De called for is at running neck and neck for the position and will vie for honors in the first encounter. Bruce Hartford has not ar- rived to get into action at short in an endeavor to keep Charles Tooley off his position. He is expected in within the next day or so along with Arthur Olsen, pitcher, from Norwich, Conn.
 Many candidates will get a chance to do their stuff in the encounter Thurs day, and a fairly good early-season line can be obtained on the candidates.
