Of this city a chance to reach more
. people and near routes to the ter
ritory which is already developed is
on the most needed improvements at
this time.
The new Victory bridge. spanning
the Raritan river between this city
and South Amboy. is exceptionally
well located to carry out ideas OF
this kind. Already a new road Ia
under construction from the bridge
proper to the state highway now In
use and this road has been growing
across the meadow, the idea has de-
yeloped that additional roads would
be constructed. thus giving shorter
routes to the bridge than are possi-
BILE at the present time.
In order to reach this city from
Sayreville, South River, Parlin and
other towns on the south shore OF
the Raritan river, It is necessary to
make a long trip through South
Amboy. This It Is declared would
be unnecessary If Q new road touch-
ing all of these towns was built from
the highway leading to the Victory
bridge. to South River or beyond
that municipality.
The road, it is pointed out could
be built over the meadows and fol
low the course of the river. This
would not only open up new territory
and additional factory and residen-
tial sites, but also supply shorter
route to the towns whose inhabi-
tants 1t is believed. should become
shoppers in this city.
Such a road would not only open
up new territory, but would also be
q pleasant ride and would soon be-
come popular as motor route to
. the Victory bridge and the state
highways leading to the seashore
resorts of Monmouth and Ocean
counties.
In view of the fact that little diff
ficulty is being experienced in
building the road across the mea-
dows at South Amboy to the state
bridge, it is generally believed that
q road up the south side of the
river would not be any more diff
cult to construct.

France and Foreign Minister Strese-

afternoon on the question of the
evacuation of the Ruhr. The con-
versation followed a conference of
the principal French and Belgian
delegates to the international con-
ference.
LONDON, Aug. IL (By The Asso-
ciated ss).-The all important
question of the evacuation of the
Ruhr was being considered late this
forenoon at a conference of the prin-
cipal allied delegates. Until they.

LONDON, Aug. II (By The Asso- !
ciated Press) The allied and Ger
man experts attached to the inter-
national reparation conference have
reached a full agreement on the
Dawes program, 1t was announced
this noon. They remained In session
until three o'clock this morning to
arrive at an understanding on rep
aration payments in kind. on which
the Germans held out until the re-
suits of Premier Herriots' Paris
mission became known.
The French premier's return with
his cabinets approval of his Ruhr
evacuation policy in his pocket pui
new life and hope into the negotia
tors, and British observers believe
the conference will end by Thurs
day.
The completion of the experts
work here and Premier Herriot's
success in his Paris mission justifies
the hope that the conference will
come to close before the weekend,
according to a foreign office spokes4
man.
This morning the big fourteen"-
the allied and German delegation
leaders-met for an hour and a halt
at No. 10 Downing street and heard
M. Herriot's report or his Paris trip.
They then briefly considered the one
remaining problem within the pur-
view of the conference proper--that
of the allied railwaymen remaining
on the German lines.
This issue is so closely connected
with that of the evacuation of the
Ruhr that both seem likely to be
settled at the same time, although
the Ruhr issue will be kept outside
the conference.
Names for the post of permanent
sargent-general to carry the Dawes
plan into effect are being discussed
generally now in conference circles
since the announcement that the
French will agree to the evacuation.
of the Ruhr on conditions which II
seems likely the Germans will ac-
cept. James A. Logan, American
representative on the reparation
commission; Dwight w. Morrow, of
J. p. Morgan and company, and Paul s
d. Cravath, are three Americans
mentioned frequently Tor the post,
together with a number of Ozark
horses" who have not been identified
with reparation affairs.
owen d. Young, of the Dawes
committee, seems to be generally re-
garded In conference circles as the
ideal man to initiate the Dawes plan,
but his announcement that he would
only consider taking the post tenn
porarily makes the selection of his
successor necessary at an early date.

(By The Associated Press) The
United States cruiser Raleigh, ex-
ploring the east coast of Greenland
in search of landing place for the
American Army round-the-world
f1iers, today reported to Rear Ad-
miral Thomas p. Magruder that she
was In dense fog 80 miles east
southeast of Angmagsalik and that
she had encountered many floating
ice hummocks
While the vessel was attempting
to gain the sea clear of ice, a hum
mock touched 1t, slightly damaging
the starboard forward propeller. ac-
cording to the report to the admiral.
In statement this morning, Ad-
miral Magruder. said 1t was doubtful
If Angmagsalik could be used as a
base by the scout planes which are
being carried by the cruisers Raleigh
and Richmond to explore the coast.
A plan had been considered whereby
these planes would carry fuel for
the round -the-world flyers over the
Angmagsalik ice field.

yesterday that she needed coal, ex-
poets to clear the ice pack in two

Commander Lieutenant Lowell H.
Smith has engaged trawler here
to carry 800 tons of coal to the
Danish ship and to refuel her at the
edge of the ice.
Lieutenant Smith and Lieutenant

REYKJAVIK, Iceland. Aug. II
(By The Associated Press) s):-There
Is no squestion of calling off the
American Army world flight because
of ice conditions around the shore
of Greenland, according to an official
statement issued on board the crui-
ser Richmond, flagship of the con-
voying squadron. In the opinion of
Rear Admiral Magruder, command
er of the squadron, the flight will be
completed successfully, barring pos
sible accidents or unforeseen adverse
weather.
The aviators are faced with three
possibilities in making their next
hop. First, the Raleigh by means
of her scout planes may find safe
landing haven for them on the
Greenland coast; second. they may
fly to Angmag gsa.lik harbor, which is
free of ice, provided the Raleigh's
planes can take enough fuel there
to provide for the next lap, and.
third, they may attempt a nonstop
fight from this port to Ivigtut, on
the western coast of Greenland or to
a base near Cape Farewell, on the
southernmost tip.
The last named project would en-
tail fight of 7S0 miles. necessitat-
ing the hazardous task of landing at
sea to re-fuel from the Raleigh.

MEET
ORGANIZE:
NREEDSbURG

At a meeting of the golf enthusi-
asts of Reedsburg in the Office of
Chas. Fl. Stone. preliminary steps
were taken for the permanent or
ganization of the Reedsburg Coun-
try Club. This is the outgrowth
of an agitation started some time
ago by Mr.. Stone and other local
golf enthusiasts with. the idea in
mind of establishing a golf course
handy TO the city.
At the meeting it was decided TO
incorporate under the laws of the
state and a. committee to draw up
the necessary papers and arrange
the details was appointed The
members of this committee are f.
H. Henry, w. F. Winchester, c. G.
Wiesler, N. T. Gill and Chas. H.
Stone.
Perhaps the most important step
in the advancement of plans for
future development was the deci-
sion to purchase sixty acres of the
Roy Kinser farm which lies two
miles east of the city on the north
side of Highway %, just opposite
the Earl Fish farm. The plot is
admirably located for a golf course
with natural distractions and can
easily be developed into an excel
lent club property.
Harry C. Nelson Of Madison, a
landscape artist employed for the
purpose, was in Reedsburg the
fore part of the week and went ov-
er the ground carefully. His rec
commentator was that it is an
ideal plot for a ninehole course.
This, we understand, is to be
staked out at once and plans made
for development in time for use
next season.
The development will be made
with plans in view for club house
which, no doubt, will come in due
time.
Mr.. Nelson is expected to return
in day or so and remain until the
various details of the project are
worked out. In the meantime the
perfection of a permanent organi-
zation will be made, which will be
followed by the election of officers
and other routine procedures. At
present there are thirty-four sign
ers to the agreement.

MRS. WOOD
found DEAD
AT HER H()ME:
Body is Discovered by
n e i g h b o rs This
Morning; Was Last
Seen On Tuesday

Mrs. Anna d. Wood, 321 Blake
street, was found dead on the floor
at her home this morning when
neighbors became alarmed at her
non-appearance and went to investi
gate. She had succumbed to heart
trouble while sitting alone sewing.
Mrs, Wood was last seen about her
home on Tuesday and it is thought
that her death took place on the
afternoon of that day.
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Hunter. next
door neighbors, noticed that wash
ing which had been hung on the
line early in the week was still out
in the rain this morning and this
caused them to go to her home to
see whether she might be i'll or un-
able to be about They found her
body lying face down i'll front of a
chair, her sewing beside ner. 4
deep cash in her forehead indica I'd
that she had struck a nearby coal
scuttle as she fell but the wound
was not sufficient to have caused
her death.
County Coroner F. E. Tryon was
called and decided that no inquest
was necessary, death being plainly
due to acute dilatation of the heart.
Mrs. Wood had suffered from heart
disease.
She is survived by six children.
Chester, Thomas and Miss MargGr-
ct are employed in Chicago, Mrs.
Allegri Warren lives in Racine.
Miss Ellen teaches in Merrill, and
Frank resides in Adams.
Mrs. Wood had resided in Bara-
boo for many years.

Visitor Is Host
At Game Supper

Often when the members of the
Heart of the Hills Walking club
of Baraboo face the road which
ends at Devils lake, o. D.. Bran

joins the company. To complete
the circle, when Rev. F. w. Apple

a game supper was the program for
Thursday night, Mr.. Brandenburg
arose to the occasion by inviting
those of the ''shank's mare" group
to the feast, given by the men Of
Rev Mr. Applegates church, the
Methodist Episcopal. The men of
the congregation not only had
gone over rocks and rills, meadows
and marshes for rabbits and
squirrels, but created delectable
dishes fit for kings. Several pretty
girls served the meal with such
generosity no Oliver Twist asked
for a second helping, and so the
total was a delightful occasion.
Mr.. Brandenburg' guests included
Rev. e. G. Henlae, Rev, Henry
Harris, NJ G. Crandall, v. S.
Pease, R. B. Griggs, A, N. Buckley,
and H. E. Cole. Others of the

Greeley of Madison were guests OF

DR.. Stovall is connected with the

archaeological department. H e
talked on vaccines and serums,
particularly mentioning a new
serum for scarlet fever which will
probably prove as effective as

DR.. Greeley. who is an expert on
diabetes, stated that after years
of observation he has come to the
conclusion that anyone over. fifty
should not be given insulin; that
60 per cent of all cases of diabetes
should not be given insulin; that
IS per cent do not need it.
Both talks were exceedingly in

MONEY
ALTO I MENT
EXPLAINED
Sank County Has Elk"
pended S225,O0O In
Projects Underway
Near BarabOO And
Spring Green

Assemblyman Dwight S. Welch,
member of the state highway com
mission, says there has been a
slight misunderstanding as to the
expenditure of money on state
trunk highway number II, between
the Hazeltine corner and Baraboo
The situation is about as follows:
Federal road money to the amount
of $4,000 has been spent between
Reedsburg and Spring Green.
The sum of $4,000 is now being
spent on the two projects between
Baraboo and Prairie du Sac.
There has been recommended the
sum of SIS 900 for the surfacing and
completion of the two projects be-
tween Baraboo and Prairie du Sac.
There has also been recommends
ed the sum of $4,000 to improve
the road between Spring Green AMI
the Wisconsin river
According to law, Sank county
is entitled to $4,000 of federal
aid and there has already been
spent and recommended by the en-
gineers the sum of $225,000 as in
dictated above. This leads UP to
the further expenditure to improve
the road between tle Hazeltine
corner and BaraboO. In order to
obtain federal aid for this project,
it will be necessary for the county
to do the grading and place enough
broken rock on the road to make
it suitable for the placing of three
and half inches Of tar penetra-
ton.
Mr.. WEIGH says that if the coun
ty is willing to put in the founda-
ton from the Hazeltine to the AL
exander corner, the federal govern
ment will allow the highway COM
mission to spend the money on the
three and half inch penetration
top.

Lime Deposit Find
In Sank County
Will Boost Alfalfa

Apparent unlimited deposit Of
excellent quality limestone PAS
just been located in the northern
part of the town of Dellona, in
Sank county, by County Agent
Stanley E. Sands, of Mauston. I'm
til the finding of this deposit, lime
stone was not known to exist in
this particular locality. Warmers
WAC have tried to grow alfalfa had
to ship in their lime.
4 The demand for ground lime
stone to correct soil acidities has
been so heavy during the last year
that commercial companies have
been unable to fill all orders. The
element of cost has also figured
largely in the farmers plans, for
commercial limestone that has to
be shipped any great distance and
then hauled several miles usually
comes pretty high. Not every far
mer feels that he can afford the
experiment even though improved
conditions in his forage fields are
certain to result.
The new limestone deposit in
Sank county, which is said to be
of a superior grade, will supply
a large local territory in both
Sank and Juneau counties and will
have a decided stimulous on the
growing of alfalfa.
