Autumn inevitable.
Some time ago the grass, sturdily

Minister'S Dog Draws Remark

PARIS, September 12.-Finance
Minister Joseph Caillaux, whose SEN
sational return from prison to power
in the short span of five years-like
his arch political enemy, Georges
Clemenceau, is one of the best hated
men in France.
An aristocrat by training and tenn
permanent, NJ. Caillauxs rise to polti-
cal fame. achieved through leadership
of Radical left, in personal appear
ance and demeanor is the very anti
thesis Of the generally accepted repre-
tentative of the common people whose
claims he has championed
He has few close personal friends,
but enjoys the unlimited devotion of
those he has made. He is admired for
his financial ability-some of his ad-
mirers even term 1t genius. His cour-
predominant emotion he has inspired

A few days ago UPON entering his
automobile at the ministry of finance
the huge wolfhound that always is
seated beside the chauffeur snapped at
one of the correspondents who was
talking to NJ. Caillaux.
This is the most vicious dog 1 ever
owned" exclaimed the finance minis
ter. He always Is trying to bite my

The dog must have very little op-

upon collecting from her debtors. In
cluding Germany. enough to pay her
obligations to the United States.
The British debt to America works
out at about f37 100000 year. This
sum must then be made up from
British creditors. The treasury eX-
pertS are assuming a revenue from
Germany of about f10,000,000 per year
under the Dawes plan. 1t is true that
If the Dawes plan produced the maxi
mum contemplated. f125, 900 600 a
year, and if this whole sum was
transferred from Germany to her
creditors, then Britain would receive
f27 800 900 from Germany. But in no
quarter, here or abroad, Is this
thought possible. The maximum that
any British ftnancier will admit as
possible is payment from Ger
many of half this amount, f13,7oO,O0O.
Italy to Be Asked to Pay.
1t has been announced that Italy is
to be asked to pay Britain not as
much as France pays, but an amount
that shall take into account her ma
tional wealth and income-in other
words, her capacity to pay. 1taly's
income is about half that of France,
her national wealth one-third And
her debt is but two-thirds the French
Britain intends to ask Italy for from
E5 900 900 to $4,000, 900. She cannot
ask more in view of official state
ments already made. Possibly H.
000. 900 yearly may be collected from
minor debtors among the smaller
countries.
Now, assuming the German pay
ments f10000.000. these figures show
that Britain would be short 100000
each year of the amount needed to
pay the United States. Even assum-
ing, which is thought unlikely, that
German payments reach half the
Dawes minimum, Britain would still
be short nearly f4,000,000. AS such
a shortage would destroy the British
debt policy and prove politically sui
cidal for whoever were responsible
for it, 1t is not and cannot be contem-
plated. Where is the shortage to be
made up? Clearly. from France,
Churchill knows--he has positive In
formation-that the United States
will ask not less than per cent from
France. probably ga per cent, and he,
therefore. secretly allows for an ulti-
mate payment To this country from
France. not of f12 100000 as an
nounced the other day. but of some
think like fI9,OOO.0OO.
The London debt negotiations. then,
leave the American position thus.
Either Caillaux is right. and the United
States drops her figures to 2 per cent
and takes $50. 900 900 a year. in which
case Churchill has ruined himself as
financier, and has left d permanent
deficit Of fS.000,000 or so between
Britain's annual payment to the
United States and what she gets from
her creditors. Or else Churchill is
right, and France will have to pay
ultimately to Britain d much larger
sum than she has pay America.
If Churchill is right and Caillaux
wrong then. most unhappily, the
United States will be held up as the
blame for the additional eight or nine
international Shylock not only in
France, but also here. The whole
million. pounds that Britain secretly
proposes to exact from France in ad-
dition to the fl2 100000 she now asks
will be placed here upon the United
States, France will be told that
Britain is most anxious to take the
smaller sum. but that the exactions of
America compel her to demand the
larger.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, September 12-Because
74-year-old Baron Christof Won DreC-
oil, head of Berlin's most exclusive
fashion house, refused to dun clients,
his firm has been compelled to go into
bankruptcy.
Won Drecoll designed gowns and
trousseaus for practically all the Ger

to join William II in wedlock, she
stopped In Berlin long enough to have
her wedding gown and other clothes

of the firm as by the creations of his
sisted upon personally waiting on all
distinguished customers and placing
the finishing touches upon their
gowns.
During the initiation period much
comment was caused in society and
former court circles when 1t was re-
ported that the British royal family
was placing orders with Won Drecoll,
and the London fashion shops started
a big protest.
The baron, who before the war con-
Quoted shops also in New York, vi
emma, Paris and London, insisted that
his clients of distinguished family
must not be dunned. This gradually
led to his liabilities exceeding his
assets, but it IS expected the firm will
emerge safely from the bankruptcy
proceedings, as the creditors are show
ing a disposition to make generous
terms.
