FRENCH CABINET
 CRISIS AVERTED Callauz Partially Surrenders to
 Socialists Attacks TROUBLE OVER FINANCES
Three Hour Discussion Over Diffl- culties Finally Ends in Truce -- France Is Affected By Budget Argument.

Paris. June 5 (AP)-The cabinet crisis, threatened earlier today seemed postponed later wher Finance Minister CaiIlaux partly sur. rendered to the socialists attacks upon his financial program.
 The attacks were conducted by former Finance Minister Louis Loucheur and by socialist leaders al a peace conference" with the gov ernment and the left bloc of the chamber, called by Premier Pain. leve to reconcile opposition to the Caillaux financial program.
 At first the attitude of M. Lou cheur and the socialists seemed fir. reconcilable with that of NJ. Gail. laux. The impasse was maintained during the greater part of three hour discussion but finally when M Loucheur took the floor. the finance minister comprosimed.
 M. Cailaux insisted that the bal ancing of the budget came first while NJ. Loucheur and the socialists maintained that financial reforms must precede a budget balancing M. Cailaux, however, emphatically rejected the socialists demand for capital levy.
 One of NJ. Cailaux's big argu- ments was the United States is just now greatly interested in our situa- tion," and that the best way to se- cure a satisfactory settlement Of Frances debt to the United sWtes will be for France to balance her budget, and even to make her re- ceipts exceed expenditures.
 NJ. Caillaux. after hearing the ar guments of M. Loucheur. agreed to attempt to balance the budget and to "rehabilitate" French finances This ''rehabilita- tion' although described in general terms, was taken to mean the in- auguration of various measures lead ing to the refundins of the internal debt and the stabilization of the franc.
 Payments on Bonds
 NJ, Caillaux told the cabinet that he expected the French treasury would have to pay on July 1 in cash 1 500, ,000,0 francs to holders Of treasury bonds maturing then. Sim liar payments of 3,50o,ooO,ooo francs on Sept. 1 and of 4,oOo,OOo,ooo francs on December would have to be made, he estimated. A total Of 900, 900 francs of treasury bonds will mature or these dates, but the figures M. Caillaux gave rep resented the amount of cash pay ments that will be required by the holders of the bonds, according to M. Caillauxs estimated.
 He made no explanation of how he reached his figures of the cash proportion of payments, but 1t was he made an estimate based upon the proportion of cash pay ments reaiured by holders of treas lry bonds that matured last Febru- ary.
 In discussing the situation with he cabinet, NJ. Cailaux criticized severely the financial policies of the proceeding Herriot government. He said telegrams from the French ann at Washington showed that he issue of paper money to relieve treasury embarrassment during the Herriot regime had had effect upon French credit in the United States.

94 IN SHADE IS
 AVERAGE TODAY.

With no break in the terrinc heat wave and no indication of any, New Britain continues to suffer but not in silence. Physicians say there is a general condition of exhaustion and prostration among the older people and those who have been i'll from other causes. The prolonged heat wave has shown a tendency to break down their resistance.
 Probably the most prominent among the heat sufferers is Patrol man Michael J. Cosgrove. veteran member of the police department. who collapsed while on duty at the Capitol theater yesterday afternoon. He was sent home in the police am- bulance and is under the care of Dr. A. J. Savard. MT. Cosgrove is said to be resting as comfortably as possible in the intense heat.
 Francis Mclaughlin of 1OS West Main street was prostrated by the heat on Main street near the rail- road crossing yesterday afternoon when the mercury scared to no and was sent home in the police ambulance.
 Many cases are reported where physicians entering homes to treat other patients have found cider members of the family on the verge of collapse.
 Schools Are Closed,
 So insufferabe has the temerature become that the school department upon the petition of the senior high school teachers decided at noon to. day to close the schools and about 1900 children were released for the day.
 At the parochial schools it was re- ported that orders had been issued at the St. Joseph's school this morn ing to dismiss when the examina- tions were concluded, and at St. Marys school early this afternoon.
 At least one school teacher col. lapsed yesterday and according to reports several others did this morn ing. The entire office force of the Landers, Frary & Clark plant was dismissed this afternoon. The foun- dry at the North 6 Judd plant was shut down yesterday but resumed operations this morning, although one man collapsed shortly after starting to work. The office force at the North & Judd plant was dis missed early today.
 The temperature stood about the same today as yesterday. It hovered between 96 and 100 in the shade and scared to 1o6 in the sun by 7 o'clock.
 A prominent physician this morn ing made the suggestion that people owning lawn sprinklers attach their sprinklers and let the neighborhood children play in the water. Hun dreds of men and boys found their way to the I. M. c. A. and Boys club shower baths and the "Y" pool. and this afternoon crowds of young sters climbed the hill at Walnut Hill park to wade in the water.
 HOW TO AVOID REGISTRATION
 Dr, Henry T. Bray, chairman of the board of health, stated this aft ernoon that the health board real ized that things were serious but be yond advising people what to do could do nothing to relieve the sit uation. Dr. Bray issues the follow ing advice:
 Take things as easy as possible.
 Bsthe as much as possible. Use tepid water-not cold.)
 Keep out of the sun.
 Dress lightly
 Don't exert
 Drink es much liquids ss possible. but not ice cold,
 Drink 1t often. but not in larEs amounts.
 Don't eat hearty.

GERMANY MUST KEEP
 VERSAILLES TREATY
British Will Not Evacuate Occupied Territory Until
 Terms Are Met

London, June 5 (AP)-Germany has failed in 13 conditions to comply with the disarmament requirements of the Versailles treaty, declares the allied note to Germany, the text of which was given out here tonight.
 In order to obtain the evacuation of the Cologne area, Germany must among other things suppress the present general staff and reduce the number of German police from 18O to 150,000.
 The strength of the German army must be reduced to 100000 fighting men.
 "The military character presented today by the German security police must entirely disappear" says the note.
 The note demands alteration of certain factories in order to make impossible the manufacture of war materials. All existing munitions in excess of amounts to be stated by the allied control mission must be surrendered including spare parts for small arms, bomb throwers, ma- chine guns. Blank cartridges also must be given up.

Tossing or Shooting

/ feather and the dollar tossing fails is
that in the case of the feathers the
wind distributes them beyond any hope
of recovery-but in the case of the
dollars. they are recovered almost i'm
mediately-but arc recovered by the
chaps who are selling the stocks, not
by the purchasers of the gaudy certi'
ficates.
The chap with the arrow, shooting
at the target, is the investor who real
ly knows the thing he expects TO. ac-
complish. He knows precisely where
his dollars are going, and the size OF
the target they are to bit if bulls
eye is to be scored. And it is not to
be overlooked that eyen if he does not
hit the bull's-eye every time, neither
does he use so many feathers. The per.
centagc of hits Is considerably larger
than BY the scattering method.
While the target is the thing a.
which he is aiming-the target Of
safety for the principal, and the bulls.

archer Tor investor) pays considerable
attention to the quality of the arrow.
He makes sure that it is straight, well
balanced and heavy enough to carry
the distance. And he gives some atten.
ton to the bow as well. He makes
sure that it has strength and plenty Of
push to propel the arrow onward to-
ward its mark.
The bow of good Investment prop
ositions is the company in which one
places his money. 1t must have
strength, be properly financed and
planned. and have a product which
will serve a good market on a basis
which will permit the earning of a

In a recent issue of Printers Ink
the advertisement of home magazine
caught my eye, BY reason Of the up-
usual sketch at the top of the page,
1t was of two men standing on a hill
top. One man had basket of feathers
on his arm. With the free hand he
was scattering the feathers to the
wind. The other man. with bow, was
sending arrows direct TO the bull's-eye
Of a distant target.
The text of the ad called attention
to the two ways of directing an adj
vertising appeal-one by the broadcast
method for reaching large numbers ;
the other in an intensive drive upon q
selected market. Commenting on these
methods the advertisement continued /:
THE difference between the two is
the difference between standing on a
hilltop with a basket of feathers,
throwing handfuls of them into the
air-and that of using fewer feathers,
fitting them to arrows and aiming at
target.
pursue the first method and many
of your feathers may reach the hoped
for destination, but choose the second,
and certainty that you will hit the
mark replaces hope that you may"
Unknowingly the writer Of the ad-
vertisement preached a mighty excel
lent theme on the art of investing.
The world is filled with feather
tossers. The feathers are the dollars
they have painstakingly gathered
through years of saving and thrift.
Then when they have a goodly number
gathered. they take the basket TO the
top Of the hill and toss them 10 the
winds. There is usually plenty Of wind
provided by the sales talks of the
high-pressure boys with the fancifully
colored stock certificates. which are
strong of promises but somewhat weak
on making those promises come true.
These feather tossers" are the
''take-a-chance" folks, who throw their
dollars out in the hope that some of
them will fall on fertile soil and
sprout a bumper crop. The view of
the valley in the distance, lush with
the green of growing things obscures
their vision to the fact that the fin.
est crops are not grown on the hill
tops. or that the soil from which they
expect to reap their harvest is thin
and full Of rocks.
