EXTENSION OF CREDITS FROZEN
 IN GERMANY
American Interests Have S8O0,00O,OOO of Them Bankers Decide to Extend Them for One Year

Berlin, Jan 23-UP)-Agree- ment for a one-year extension of private credits frozen" in Germany in which American interests are es- timated at $SO0.000,00 was reached by international bankers here to- day reportedly without foreseeing any date for further repayment.
 The bankers negotiating an ex- tension of the present stand still agreement" were in accord on most of the important points. Included in the stand-still agreement. is es' timated at around $2,570, 100000.
 It was expected the agreement would be initialled today by the heads of various delegations, then submitted to the various national banking committees for approval.
 According to sources usually we'll informed on international finance, the agreement provided a one year prolongation of the stand still'' agreement under which foreign bankers agreed not to withdraw investments from Ger many until March, 1892. The ex- tension might be cancelled, how ever, if Germany declares a mor- atorium.

FRANCE CLAIMS
 GERMANY OWES HER GREAT SUM
In Fact She Says That the
 German Debt to France Is Now $2,859,O8O,0O0
By RALPH HElNZEN

United Press Staff Correspondent.
 Paris, Jan 23-UP)-After careful compilation of war dam ages, credits and debits, the French government through Pre- mier Pierre Laval to-day an- nounced that all of Germany's actual reparations payments are still twelve milliard marks - roughly 71,477 million francs or S2,859, 8O,000-from meeting the full actual cost of repairing the war damages in the ten devastated regions which comprised the fred zone" of France.
 This figure is at odds with the statistics advanced by German statesmen, but the United Pres: finds the difference is to be ac' counted for by the assignment b! France of certain portion of Ger
 many's total payments to cover the costs of the army of occupa
 ton which occupied the Rhine land.
 The Laval figures show tha' France already has reimbursed tc private property owners and has rebuilt for its own account wal damaged property of total value of 97.881 100000 francs. There re- mains, still to be reimbursed by the French government to its na- tionals for war damages, about D. 900, 900, 900 francs, which will bring the total of actual war damages to |102,881, 100000 francs.

Germany Of Belief 4 Disarmament Of All
 Is Fully Justified
At the Conference to Be Opened Soon, She Will Make Plea for Complete Dismantling of Every= thing-And Gives Rea- sons
By ERIC KEYSER

United Press Stan Correspondent
 Berlin, Jan 23.-(UP)-Germ at the forthcoming disarmament conference will reiterate its plea for universal disarmament.
 The Germans believe their de- mand is justified. Germany's dis armament was not unconditional. they aver, but. in according with the introduction to Part V of the Versailles treaty, was meant to be the forerunner to general and universal disarmament.
 The Germans cite many. author ities. among them leading states menf of the former allied powers. who in official speeches and state ments recognized this claim. for in stance. Joseph Paul-Boncour, of France, and Viscount Cecil and Arthur Henderson of Britain. the latter in his capacity as foreign sec retary.
 Germany's attitude on disarma- mert-and not alone the attitude of German officialdom but also that of the German public-may best be shown by quoting from a speech which Chancellor Heinrich Bruen- ing made in the reichstag on Octo- Der 16, 1880.
 The chancellor then declared:
 What is disturbing our nation. and especially the German youth, is the fact that, after the disappoint- ment caused through -obsery- ance of Wilson's fourteen points, the partners to the Versailles treaty now do not even observe the pro- visions of that treaty which are in our favor.

RUSSIA HAS THE INCOME TAX BUG
 JUST LIKE US
All Earning Over $37.5O a Month Will Have to Pay Up a Little Bit

Moscow, Jan 23-(U. P.)- The Soviet government decreed addi- tional income taxes to-day to pro- vide funds for house construction and cultural advancement during 1892. The new taxes followed es- tablishment of 30. per cent inn provement in the living conditions of the masses as the governments goal in the second five year plan.
 All incomes above r rubles monthly (about $37.50 at par) will be taxed additionally. The new levy will be comparatively light for workers with small incomes but will be graduated steeply for pri- vate traders, land owners of the Kulak class. and others not of the proletariat. The Kulaks' taxes will be almost doubled.
 Wage earners will pay roughly between two and three per cent Of their annual incomes. Persons em- ploying hired labor on a private basis, of which there are few left in the Soviet Union, will be taxed almost two months earnings dur ing a year.

WORCESTER HAD TWO MORE FIRES
 LAST EVENING
They Didn't Amount to Much - Took Place While Arrested Sus= pect Was in Custody

Worcester, Mass, Jan 23.-UP) -Worcester's 11th and 18th incen- diary fires within a week occurred last night while 19-year old youth, suspected of being the fire bug was in custody. The lad, whose name was withheld. was ar- rested early yesterday near the ruins of All Saints Episcopal church, destroyed by an incendiary fire Wednesday with loss of more than $250,O00.
 A few hours after he entered Worcester state hospital for 10 days observation, a fire started in the cellar of house at 35 Mason street. No sooner had this blaze been extinguished than fire was discovered in an adjoining build ing. This blaze, too, was quickly quelled. The fact that two addi. tional incendiary fires occurred af- ter his arrest did not convince DO. lice, however, that the youth un- der observation was not the pyro. maniac. They said they still be- lieved he may have been responsi- ble for the previous fires.

Fifteen thousand dollars will be needed to finance the work or a democratic state headquarters dur ing the coming campaign, Labor Commissioner Joseph Tone or New Haven. one of Governor Wilbur l.. Cross chief lieutenants, estimates. He made this estimate this week during his visit to Waterbury Tn connection with the opening of the drive for $50,00O democratic victory fund in Connecticut.
 Where the Connecticut headquar. ters will be located is not yet known. Commissioner Tone stated that this fact will not be definitely ascertained until the democratic state central committee meets in about two weeks. The call for the state meeting Is now being awaited Mrs Fannie Dixon Welch, acting state chairman, will send out the notice.
 It Is believed, though, that Ne" Haven will be favored as the scene of the state headquarters once more. The Elm City has been headuuarters for several campaigns in the past due to the fact that it is the most centrally located Of the larger cities of Connecticut and therefore, most easily accessible to the party leaders of the state.
