stone team at the Standardization
Fair last Friday. Norman Rockwell
of this place had the misfortune to
break his right leg just above the

FARM HOME DESTROYED

The farm home of Ed Barnick, who
lives two miles east of town and
little ways north on highway No.
1, was completely destroyed by fire
Sunday morning. Mrs. Barnick and
the children had left Saturday to
attend the state fair. On arising
Sunday morning Mr.. Barnick lighted
the oil stove preparatory to getting
his breakfast and then went out to
do his chores. 1t is presumed the
fire started in some manner from
the stove as Mr.. Barnick, on discov-
ering the blaze, was not able to
enter the building, consequently
nothing was saved.

MAY ASK j. S. AID
ON PREPARATIONS
Part in Geneva Conference
Believed Essential for Set
Element of Problem.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
+ GENEVA, September 1.-THE belief
prevailed today that the United States
I would undoubtedly be asked to par
ticipate in the deliberations of the COM
mission of experts that will work for a
complete and definite settlement of the
reparations problem. After series of
conversations Great Britain, France,
Germany, Italy, Belgium and Japan
reached an agreement to name COM
mission, and an accord was reached in
principle for special official negotiations
looking to evacuation of the Rhineland.
In some circles the opinion was held
that discussion of reparations would
lead to a discussion of war debts in
general
Disclaimers Are Issued.
Disclaimers were issued, however, that
Europe had any wish to drag the United
States into the reparationS discussion
Nevertheless the general opinion in
political circles appeared to be that
nothing sound. complete or final could
America either through governmental
representatives or financiers who would
reflect Washingtons views.
When delegates of so nations to the
Assembly of the League of Nations
heard of the accord. the opinion was
voiced that statesmen have begun to
write the last chapter on liquidation
of the consequences of the great war.
Not only representatives of European
governments, but those from lands be-
yond the seas as WELL saw in the pre-
liminary agreement solid basis for eff
fective collaboration between the gov
ernments and peoples for general So
tuition of the problems left by the war
and particularly of all financial prob
lens arising from fiXation of German
separations on basis of Germany'S
capacity to pay.
Agreement Called Colossal.
Some Geneva newspapers in describ-
ing the agreement called it colossal.
That Japan was invited to sit on the
commission of financial experts which
will tackle the reparations problem was
taken to indicate that Europe's belief
was that the question was not only
European, but international, in its
scope and possible repercusSions.
A German spokesman said today that
when the discussions began there would
be recorded the necessities and the
hopes of Germany and the allies in
connection with reparations. The Ger
man belief was that Seymour Parker
Gilbert agent general for reparations,
had already admirably paved the way
for the proposed study.
The belief was generally expressed
also that the negotiations would have
repercussion on the Berenger accord
under which France has been pro-
visionally making debt payments to
the United States. Some thought that
it would be difficult, if not impossible,
German reparations to interallied debts

PARTICIPATION VIEWED UNLIKELY
Washington Receives Rather Colby
Reparations Discussion Plan.

Washington Receives Rather Colby
Reparations Discussion Plan.
By the Associated Press.
Geneva dispatches intimating that an
attempt might be made by the allied
governments to induce Washington to
participate in the work of the COM
mission which will deal with the repara-
tons problem were rather coldly re-
ceived in official quarters today.
1t was stated fatty that the only in
formation on the subject before the
State Department was that conained in
news dispatches. Beyond that, comment
was refused.
u. S. Viewpoint Well Known.
The policy of this Government, which
regards the reparations and war debt
questions as wholly separate, has been
reiterated so often that the further
suggestion in the Geneva dispatches
that the reparations conversations would
lead to a general discussion of war
debts is held not to reflect the Amer
lean viewpoint.
The only American participation in
the reparationS discussion at any pre-
vious time was in connection with the
allotment of "a per cent of
the general payments made by
Germanw under the Dawes plan to sat
isfy the costs of occupation covering
the periods during which there was
an American Army on the Rhine. The
United States Government was rep
resented at the Dawes plan and sub
