GERMAN NOTE
|SENC0URAC|NC
American Experts Do Not Be-
lieve that Objections
Will Prove Serious

LONDON, Aug. 6 (By The Asso-
ciated Press) American experts
who read the German memorandum
and covering letter submitted to the
Allies today said they did not believe
the objections raised were likely to
prove serious bar to the success OF
the program the interallied BODY
had worked out for making the
Dawes plan effective.
1t was announced that the "big
fourteen" of the conference would
reassemble at o'clock this evening.
The memorandum was an eigh-
teen-page document accompanied by
a covering letter. 1t was a. broad
survey, from the German point of
view, of the whole program of the
Interallied Conference as worked
out for the launching of the Dawes
plan. 1t did not go into details but
presented the German viewpoint re-
garding the experts report on de-
faults and sanctions, on the fiscal
and economic duty of German, and
on the transfer of reparation pay
ments, the three divisions into which
the conference work was divided.
In the covering letter which the
Germans presented two important
questions outside the conference
were raised. The first was the MILL
tary evacuation of the Ruhr and the
other zones outside the Rhineland,
and the second was the question of
the retention n of allied railwaymen in
the Ruhr.
The German memorandum was
handed to the Allied representatives.
in Downing street this morning nv
the chiefs of the German delegation.
In consequence Premier Mcdonald
is urging all possible expedition so
that another plenary meeting of the
international conference can be held
today.
The Germans worked all night
and completed their reply to the
protocol at o'clock tl.is morning.

Want Rubr Eyacuatiop

LONDON, Aug. c (By The Asso-
ciated Press) Pressure is being
brought on the international con-
ference By DIR. Rudolph Breitscheid,
leader of the German Socialists, and
the French Socialists who are now
in London, to effecl immediate mill
itary evacuation of the Ruhr. The
proponents of immediate evacuation
indicate that the German govern
ment Is likely to fall If its delega-
ton returns to Berlin without a
promise that the Ruhr and other oc-
cupied districts will be Immediately
freed of foreign troops.
This question, although outside
the agenda of the conference, is for
the moment transcending all others.
1t is being stressed by the German
delegates who represent a minority
government whose existence, they
insist, would be seriously threatened
If the military evacuation is not
achieved.

it's moods at our feet, while inside we
have an American home rarely COM
bined with a continental atmosphere
which we cannot and do not want to
escape.
From one long widow we can look
over the city reveling in the beauty
that unfolds before us and in the
mystery with which the Paris air al
ways seems to cloak it's beloved. We
have not yet seen anything that is not
artistic and distinctively beautiful. 1t
seems that noting could be more per-
feet than the old buildings, the grace
full spires of st. Sulpice and the
majestic dome of the Pantheon until
we go to the window at the back
where we look down on courtyards,
moss grown walls and narrow, wind
ing streets that would ravish the soul
Of the veriest modern. And when
the lights come on in the dusk-ah,
words are far to puny for such rap
ture!
I think you ought to be educated
so next timeI shall write a very grave
letter about the Louvre and the Lux
emburg Musee and Notre Dame
oh, yes, and the styles.
A merry Christmas to you all and
a prosperous and happy New Year.

eloquent English and they shout
"Obligatoire" and threaten to rend
you limb from limb. When you move
into your apartment you tip your con-
cierge fatty and do not forget to re-
peat at frequent intervals else your
mail begins to straggle and odd little
things happen. When the time comes
that taxi driver smiles and says,
"Merci" instead of wailing, ooh,
non! non! nonp' no matter what /
give him, shall add five franc note
just out of sheer surprise and graft
tude. Likewise the piorters. Like
wise the bell boys. Ten per cent is
the legitimate tip here as well as
in America and it is all that is ex-
pected from continental. It is our
newly rich Americans who have over
tipped and who have spoiled the man
ners of some of an instinctively
courteous race and made it hard for
those of less means.
Il
The other Innocent and myself are
still debating whether or not French
as learned in America is of any con-
sequence. We thought we knew con-
siderable before we arrived but dis
covered that we knew absolutely
nothing when we got here. Our first
experience was with taxi driver but
we have since found that no taxi
driver understands any language. The
best way to do is to hand him the
written address and then sit back and
concentrate. In restaurants we long
ago gave up trying to order but have
learned to observe the food on othe,
tables and point. It is perfectly gooc
form for Americans. We are still
blessing the woman at the American
Express company offices who tole

that we shall have to go long before
the time Of the service in order to
get a seat.
One of the most charming customs
of the Christmas tide in France comes
on Twelfth Night called here, The
Feast of the Three Kings. This is
on January sixth and the celebration
begins with dinner at which the
hosts serve cake cut into as many
pieces as there are guests and one
more. A bean is baked in the cake
and the person who has the bean in
his cake is proclaimed king. If a
woman gets the bean, then she is
queen. The king chooses queen
or the queen king, as the case may
be. All evening the guests must do
whatever the royal pair do. / can
imagine Americans having quite as
good a time over this affair as the
French.
The extra piece of cake? Yes-that
piece is given to the first beggar who
comes to the door. When no beggal
comes it is sent out to some poor
person.
I promised to say a few words
about tipping in France, believe,
since I remarked in my last letter
that compared to this country the
United States is a rank beginner. If
there is anything for which one does
not tip or from which one can escape
tipping have yet to discover it. Go
to the theatre or the opera and you
will not be shown your seat until you
have tipped the usher. If she knows
no other English words she can say,
"Tip for service, please" Go to any
museum or exhibition and no matter
what you carry into the building you
must check it no matter if it is only
your fountain pen. expostulate in

We went out Immediately and not
only found that what she said was
true but that the proprietor of the
place was friend we had made on
shipboard. / will never forget that
first dinner after a week of unknown
foods. / had everything from oat-
meal to ham and eggs and apple pie
and coffee. Any American coming
to Paris will do well to write me.
Of course there are all manner of
restaurants which cater to Americans
but they are over town and are very
high priced.
We get along all right in spite of
our apparent ignorance. The French
are very patient and try hard to I'M
derstand. We find that plentiful
sprinkling of, eff you please" and
"Thank you," much murmuring of
"Ah, yes" Tin French) combined
with Monsieur" or Madame" and
rich gesturing will get us any
where. We are picking up the Ian
guage gradually and will be studying
soon. 1t is almost impossible for us
to understand the French but we have
no trouble with the Americans or
English who speak French. All of
which goes to prove that the Partisan
accent is quite unattainable.
We are now comfortably and

tablished in our diminutive apart

those terrible recurring moments OF

PREVENTING HOSPITAL FIRES

Two recent hospital fires, one in
Boston and the other in Syracuse.
have drawn the attention of under
writers AID fire department officials
to a new and growing hazard which
is treatenng the safety Of these in
stitutions-the storage OF nitro
cIIuIose film-and the great need of
precautionary measures. They re-
commend:
In all rooms where X-Ray films
are stocked, handled or filled. smok-
ing should be strictly prohibited.
A metal can should be provided
for all waste negatives and film
SCRAP, and at no time should these
be permitted to accumulate on ta-
bles, benches or floor.
1t is best that stock OF unexposed
films should be kept at a minimum
and such stock should be kept in a
cool, dry place out Of way of ordi-
nary room traffic, in metal box or
can.
In a room where films are filed
or handled there should be no flames
or any other than standard electrical
fixtures. A hand fire-extinguisher
should be in each room. Film mega
tives should be so designed that the
diffusing glass is not hot to the
touch and there should be no unne-
cessary display of film negatives in
lighter illuminators.

INTERNATIONAL RESTORATION

What Statesmen and politicians,
plenipotentiary the League OF ma
tions and parliaments could not
accomplish for world restoration, a
committee of business experts have
probably achieved.
Alexander HamiltOn's report in
1890 upon the finances of the Unit
ed States rescued our nation from
financial chaos and ranks among the
classes of finance. The report OF
Charles Gates Dawes and his asso-
ciates upon the reparations due from
Germany will, if accepted, work out
the economic redemption of Europe
and be forever regarded as a maker
of history and originator of a new
day for the world.
Virtually five years of financial,
industrial and political warfare have
passed since the war of arms in
Europe ended. It's nations have
wrangled ever since. They long ago
demonstrated their incompetence to
settle the financial difficulties in
herited from the war and increased
by the treaty of peace.
Their fickleness and despair drove
them to seek American advice as
being the only counsel that could be
trusted as competent and disinter-
ested. 1t is given in the competent
and courageous answer of General
Dawes
He and his fellow experts display
even greater genius in cutting the
Gordian knot of European finance
than he demonstrated in devising a
L. l.
If this work of the best minds of
financial America be not adopted In
the main, then nothing can be done
for the reconstruction of Europe.
1t remains for the nations to
acquiesce and put into effect through
the reparations commission, what
governmental machinery was power
less into operation.
