GERMANY NOT
so PROSPEROUS,
FARLEY TOLD
Delegate Disputes Report
on Economic Situation at
Paris Meeting.
BY WEBB MILLER
nited Press stan Correspondent

PARIS, Feb. 13-Germany's plea
that her economic condition is not
as prosperous as claimed by the al
lies was set forth again today before
the commission Of reparations eX-
perts.
A brief official communique issued
after the morning session indicated
that the report of S. Parker Gilbert,
agent general Of reparations, was
being disputed by the German dele
gates.
DR.. Hjalmar Schacht, head of the
Reichsbank and chief German del
egate, continued his presentation OF
Germany's case that he started
Tuesday. The official communicate
said:
Or. Schacht continued to hold
the floor this morning. In response
to the committees request, DR..
schacht and his colleagues offered
observations upon certain points of
German economic conditions as set
forth in the recent report Of the
agent general Of reparationS.'
The experts had voluminous doc
urnentary evidence prepared by
Parker Gilbert on which to work.
The understanding was that a
complete survey of Germany's eco
nonnic condition would be attempted
to prove or disprove the validity Of
the German viewpoint, in view of
the definite conclusions reached by
Parker Gilbert.
owen D. Young, chairman of the
conference and unofficial American
delegate, read a message from Vice
President Charles G.. Dawes &C
knoWledging the conferences mes
sage Of greeting and cougratulation.
Or. Schacht maintained an atti-
tude Of Cancellation and did not de-
nounce the Gilbert report.
One of the American observers
said:
Or. Schacht even went so far
as 10 express admiration for Parker
Gilberts report"
A running fire of cross questions
frequently interrupted DR.. Schacht
as he continued to present his re-
port of Gernany'S economic situa-
ton, building up Germany's claim
that a reduction of the present re-
parations payments of 1928 100000
annually eventually must be made.

ONION TARIFF
BATTLE LOOMS
Will Urge In.
crease on Foreign
Production

LAREDO, Tex, Jan. S0.-F. ". Pul-
liam, Of Crystal City, was selected by
the onion growers of south Texas to
represent Texas at Washington in
the hearing of the ways and means
committee of congress to be held in
connection with the meeting of the
National Onion association commit
tee.
Mr.. Pulliam was to present the
claims Of the Bermuda onion grow
ers Of south Texas in support Of an
additional tariff of 1c per pound on
foreign onions in addition to the
/ lie tariff which became effective
on January FL.
The members Of the committee rep
resenting the National Onion Grow
ers' association, Of which Joseph
Rosenblum Of Laredo is the chair
man, appeared before the ways and
means committee of the lower house
Of congress January "a in Washing
ton for q hearing on tariff revision
Of agricultural products. Their claim
is that the l l-2c tariff, effective
January ], is not sufficient to do
justice to the domestic grower and
they will furnish data showing the
actual cost Of production and market
ing onions in comparison with the
low price at which foreign onions arc
marketed and delivered in the United
States.
With . total OF 2 Lee per pound
duty imposed on all foreign onions
the domestic growers are given q bet
ter showing in the competition they
must meet for Egyptian and other
foreign onions.

taxes, in helping Cameron county
carry the interest and sinking fund
on these bonds, or more properly
speaking, Cameron county and the
state together, as we have to levy q
tax supplementiEg the state tax.
The general advalorem taxes OF
Willacy county had by act OF the 3sth
or the seth Legislature, been donated
Cor sea wall purposes ut Corpus
christi, so that in 1924 as well as IL
1873 the state only gets, ! think it is
~ cents net taxes. Now az cents on
the 1924 valuations, or $4,Sss,5ll.00
yielded S~20,3l4.S4, and az cents on the
1925 valuations yields SS3,204.s1 or
an excess Of $12,s9e.00. So that the
state is today reaping at the very
lowest you could figure it, about a 80
per cent interest on its investment;
and with the tremendous development
in the two counties, which has been
insured by reason Of this flood pro-
lection, it is my opinion that in 1--we
years from the date Of the donation,
the state Of Texas will not be merely
receiving more taxes, but will be
reaping approximately 100 per cent
on its investment, and I cannot help
but believe that this is the best in
vestment the state OF Texas ever
made.

New York Gets
Florida Fruit
Over Boat Line

NEW YORK, Jan. 3i.-The first
boat OF the Mallory Line to bring
citrus fruit from Florida arrived
Monday with 80 cars from the load
ing point, Tampa. The fruit was in
good order. It was discharged at
Pier No. "a North river and sold at
auction on the Pennsylvania pier.
A good many strawberries are
coming from Florida by way Of the
Clyde Line. The boat line loads 1t
Miami and now is carrying open
crates Of berries. The growers bring
the berries to the Clyde Line ware
house where they are preceded. It
takes about 90 hours to make the
trip from Miami to New York.

against the proposal. On the other
band leaders Of the dry organizations
were almost unanimous in support Of
this fund and many democrats who
favor 1t, sought q direct vote in the
house upon it.
On the senate side, the committee
investigating patronage conditions
in the south had not finished work
and for the last two days fire has
conferred on a republican national
committeeman. First r. B. Creager,
Texas committeeman, was charged
with protecting certain Texas hotels
from prohibition agents. Then the
inquiry shifted 70 Mississippi where
charges were made that Perry How
ard had sold federal offices or prof
tied by appointments made. Towards
bank accounts were gone into and
Senator Mcclellan Of Tennessee, de-
manded that Howard, suspended spe-
cial assistant attorney general, as
well as republican national commit
teeman for Mississippi, be punished.
IL was expected that tariff hear
ings before the house ways and e
committee would continue until near
the end Of the session but the
length Of the hearings before the
house merchant marine committee
on a bill to prolong the life of the
radio commission has been surprising
to some. Much Of the testimony has
centered around the granting Of 40
short wave ~frequencies to the Uni
versal Wireless company Of Buffalo.
The house irrigation committee
today had arranged to hear further
testimony on the Smith bill which
would set up q $3.50, 1000 loan fund
for drainage and levee districts.
The navy supply bill carrying
S347, OOO, 900 was reported to the
house yesterday and IL that body
follows the precedent it has set at
this session, passage may be expect
ed quickly.
