separations front shifted today from
The Hague to the parliaments of 10
nations and three dominions whose
delegates yesterday signed the re
>ised Young plan protocol.
As soon as those governments
ratify the agreement, perhaps even
before, troops will be on the move
again, with the last of French forces
evacuating the Rhineland Those
soldiers will never go back SO long
as Germany does not wilfully de
FAULT in rcparations payments.
The Hague conference, which be
gan January and ended yesterday,
was intended To put final end to
PREPARATIONS squabbles. 1t succeeded
in principle, but must be followed by
a smaller conference at Paris in
which details are arranged for the
handling of Balkan property claims.
4 general agreement was drawn
up and signed here whereby Hun
garian, Bulgarian and Austrian, rep
arations annuities were fixed. but
some minor matters connected with
funding of Balkan claims remain
for settlement at Paris. They affect
the putting of the Young plan into
effect.

MANY VARIETIES
OF WOOD READY
FOR BUILDING

A proper combination of woods
makes better house than any single
wood could ever make, according to
the Building Service Bureau.
There are 1000 different species
Of trees in the United States. and
after making and using lumber from
most OF them during the past 200
years, much has been learned about
the merits of the different species
and their serviceability for various
building uses.
The number of species used has
been gradually reduced until there
