CONFIDENCE UPSET
IN DISCUSSION ON
YOUNG PREPARATION
Snowden Demands considera.
ton on His Resolution; Re-
fuses to Wait on Farley

The Hague, Netherlands, Aug. TO-
R)-A slight recovery Of confidence
In conference circles today when gen.
eral discussion Of the Young plan
was resumed without incident was
again upset before the end Of todays
vital meeting Of the financial COM
mittee by the intervention Of Philip
Snowden. British chancellor Of the
exchequer.
He declared he had placed his case
before the conference and could not
wait much longer for a decision.
Il don't want to spend the rest of
my days at The Hague" he declared.
I'VE must come to grips on the ques-
ton at issue. My resolution is still
before the committee and I cannot
permit delay in action upon 1t much
longer"
The financial committee meeting
this morning was first devoted to q
general discussion, w. Graham, pres
ident Of the board Of trade, stating
the system Of deliveries In kind had
affected British trade and caused un-
employment. The British wanted
them abolished or limited to the
shortest possible time.
Henri Cheron. French delegate
gave great number Of figures which,
he held proved Great Britain was
getting more out Of the Young plan
than the Dawes plan.
Chancellor Snowden expressed sur
prise at discussion of the repara-
tions sums: since the morning was
to have been devoted to the ques-
ton Of deliveries in kind. He said
he would refute every figure and
every statement the French minister
made but that he could not wait
much longer for action on his resolu-
ton regarding the revision of the
Young plan. He didn't want to re-
main indefinitely in The Hague.

(Tribune Special Service)

Dickinson, N. OAK. Aug. 10. =
Proposing to obtain the ideas and
opinions Of Dickinson taxpayers on
the feasibility Of calling special
election this fall to consider q bond
issue for improving the water sup.
ply Of the community, the city COM
mission has issued an invitation to
all who are interested to attend the
regular meeting Of the commission
in the city hall Monday afternoon u
2 o'clock.
Experience during the warm, dry
spell this summer has shown them
the necessity Of taking steps to in.
crease the water supply, said one Of
the commissioners. The regular
pumps proved inadequate and it wa.
necessary to use air lift pumping
equipment in two reserve wells in
addition to the three wells ordin'
arily used. Even then the water
levels gradually lowered in each
well, indicating a possible time whcn
they would run dry.
Overwork Pumps Now
1--WE must overwork the present
wells and pumps to supply the city
of Dickinson with the water il
needs" was the statement of the
commissioner. "While we do. moi
want to alarm citizens unduly, We
feel that the problem should be con.
sidered now and remcdied before an.
other summer"
With cooler weather the last week
the demand for water has lessened
but they are looking forward to m.
other summer and its increased de-
mand, it was stated. Provided scnti.
nent favors such q step, a specia
election will be called for eeptcmbel
or October. With approval by the
voters, the contract could be let this
fall and part of the work com.
pleted during the winter season
when it is believed it could be done
at q lower cost.
Larger Reservoir Needed
The proposal is to dig two more
wells and also to install a concrete
reservoir with q capacity Of 1,OO0,.
900 gallons Of water. The reservoir
would replace the smaller one now
in use, which is proving inadequate
as sufficient water cannot be stored
to help meet the peak demand dur.
ing the early evening.
While additional wells were due
several years ago, it is claimed these
are not now sufficient to meet tht
unlocked for increase in demand 70,
water. The much larger amount o1
water now being used is attributed
in part to the great increase in mod
ern plumbing here during the las
few years, to new homes being
erected, and to the much larger
number Of lawns being sprinklec
during the dry season.
