BERLIN DEF|ES
U.s.. ON BOND
PAYMENTS
(Copyright, 1885, by International
News Service)

Germany has notified the United
States that it does not intend to
bulge from its policy of discrimi-
nation against American holders
Of German bonds unless it gets
special trade concessions.
In q formal note delivered to
American Ambassador William e.
Dodd, a summary Of which has
been received at the State Depart
ment here, the German govern
ment has stated that it intends to
continue to meet the interest pay
ments on the Dawes loa nbondS in
ReichmarkS unless special clearing
arrangements involving trade con-
cessionS are made.
Creditors Must Buy
The German contention is that
the Reich cannot meet its debt
payment unless the creditor ma
ton buys more German goods.
The reichsmark payments are not
convertible into foreign exchange
but are restricted to use in Ger.
many primarily for tourist trade.
The German note Is conSid-
cred totally unsatisfactory by the
State Department. However, no
further protest by this Govern
ment was considered likely until
it receives the full text of the
German note. which is now en-
route by mail.
u. S. Complaint Made
The German note was in reply
to an aide memoire which Am
baSsador Dodd delivered to the
German foreign office on April 10.
Calling Germany to task for
failure to meet the $4,000, 1000
April is Dawes loan interest pay
ment, the aide memoire called
the Hitler governments attention
to the fact that he solemn faith
and credit Of Germany" was
pledged to meet these payments
without discrimination.
Germany has been meeting the
interest payments in full and In
cash to nations which have
granted special trade conces-
sions or which utilized an unta-
vorable trade balance as threat
to curtail German exports I'm"
less the payments were made.
This country. possessing a favor
able trade balance with Ger
many, has not been in a posi-
ton to use this threat.

BEAUTY SCORNS
|. LAUGHTER IN
Barring LOVE :

| BARIN6 LUvE
LONDON, May 10 dN.s0
The passionate love story o
'Teedles" and "Boodles"-other
wise known as Angelo Joyce ant
Lord Revelstoke-was told from
the witness stand by the beaut!
contest winner today in her $500,
600 breach of promise actor
against the British peer.
The Miss England" OF 1880
in the face of laughter in thu
court, testified:
"He called me 'Teedles' and
I called him Boobies On sew
eral occasions he asked me to
elope with him-and 1 was per.
fectly willing"
Lord Revelstroke testified today
taking the stand after Miss Joyce
had told her story. He denied HI
promised to marry her ethel
while he was a student at Cam
bridge or afterwards. He said:
"The only occasion on which
marriage was discussed, she
raised the question. 1 said I
couldn't contemplate it."
Following this testimony, the
trial was adjourned until tomor
row.
Additional torrid letters, writer
by the youthful millionaire while
a Cambridge undergraduate smit
ten with love for his Goddess II
the Clouds" were read before Mis-
Joyce took the stand.
They bristled with such terms
as Everlasting devotion" and dis
closed that Lord Revelstoke'S late
father had threatened to disin
herit him if he continued thu
friendship.
ITO Darling Angela"
Soon after she took the stand II
a court room damned with society
notables, Miss Joyce was handed
a photograph of Lord Revelstoke
The blonde plaintiff, who recently
returned from Hollywood, de
clared:
"He gave me that"
Her attorney, Norman Laski
read the following inscription:
''TO Darling Angela with I'll
my fOndest love"
On the reverse side was:
ITO my Adorable Angela with
all my love and everlasting af-
lection. Robin"
With a sigh, Miss Joyce contin
ued her story.
Threat BY Father
She told the court:
"He told me his father said
he would never entertain the
fact of association with an
actress and that If the asSOcia-
ton continued he would dis
inherit him and that / wouldn't
touch q penny of their money
under any circumstances"
She said her apartment was
invaded and that Lord Revel
stokes had been entered the day
before. She said:
"My private papers, including
some of his letters, were stolen"
Addressing the court, Mr.. LaSk
said Lord RevelStoke tainted
when his father discovered hi
association with Miss Joyce. He
added that there were a consider
able number of letters written II
the same strain as those read last
week when the case opened.
Letters Read
He said he would content him
self with reading only a few
One read:
Darling, I'll adore you and
love you forever. When you
kissed me goodbye tonight in
that way, so beautiful and
unforgettable, you showed me
all your true love.
"Th0se last five minutes
made such an impression. How
I love you, I love you, I love
you. 1t is such an exquisite,
such q fundamental, such an
everlasting devotion. I am in
love with the most glorious girl
in the world"

ter from Boobies" read:

loving you every second Of my

ALCOHOL AND ACCIDENTS

The attempts of ignorance, prejudice wet
greed to belittle and suppress the startling impor
lance of beverage alcohol cause of increasing
motor accidents and fatalities cannot deceive those
who have eyes to see and brains to think.
Great concern over the rapid increase of acci-
dents the highways is felt in the field of the in
surance business. Frank c. Morris, president of
the Standard Surety and Casualty company of New
York City, thus expresses himself:
zone of the most momentous problems before
casualty insurance executives this time emanates
from the disastrous loss experienced under automo-
bile liability policies during the calendar year 1884
which amounts to little less than cataclysm Our
company, like our contemporaries, was flooded with
an avalanche of accident reports, involving many
deaths from serious personal injuries in numbers
far exceeding prior years. In Analysing the causes,
we found an abnormal percentage attributable to
over-induigence in alcoholic beverages by automo-
bile operators both young and DID, l regard the
greatest enemy to the safety of highway traffic to
be the automobile driver who operates while in the
glow of cocktails and other strong drinks" ....
DR.. Heise in the Medical Journal of American
Medical Association of September s, 1884. ana
lyzed ITO consecutive accidents on an arteria high
way in and around Uniontown, Pa, and classified
go per cent as alcohol accidents.
1t is no longer guess that alcohol is the cause
of majority of accidents. There is increasing evil
dence to show that drunken or drinking driver,
arrests are to large extent camouflaged inten-
tionaly or not in the police records in many other
convenient terms-the most popular being ''ina,-
tention, speeding, and recklessness" Some of our
wet friends would have US believe the increase IN
accidents is attributable to the increased horse
power of cars. To this argument we would reply,
it is easier to control high powered cars than it is
to control liquor. l.l
I When so-called "facts'' are published to influence
the readers" it would be wise thing to consider
the source from which these "facts" emanate. The
