If it is possible to market only 1 per cent of the bonds, 99 per cent will ‘be held by the Allied gov- ernments to whom they represent in some cases a practically sole barrier against bankruptey. If 99 per cent are marketed, they will be in thel hands of individuals who presumably would do their best to force their governments to take active steps to make the e good. The Allies hope it will be possible to market most of the bonds, if the price is igh' enough. They say Germany will be made to pay? They hope, also, that either the original or subsequent buyers wiil be Germans. The inducement is a heavy reduction in the actual total of reparations to be paid to outsiders, and knowingz financial power of Germany there are many who believe this will be the sclution. It this is the case, it will be years before Germany actuallyj bencfits, as the bonds are to be issued Ly the reparations commisson as Germany is able to pay interest and sinking fund on them from her stat- ed annual payments of $500,000,000, plus a twenty-«'x per cent tax on her exports, To the nvestor the will be a $100 bond, five per cent bend, marketed at perhaps fifty, “backed by the entire resourceful German empire.” His response pre- sumably will be in proportion to his quceess in eatisfying himself that there will be collectors wailing and able to keep the necessary portion of the empire's resources at the cam- mand of the bondholders. inducement BOY SCOUTS WILL HAVE BIG CAMP AT LAKE MOVAL (Continued Zrom Page 1) gested as additional, but not re- quired: kodak, baseball equipment, .mugical instruments, fishing tackle, stationery, watch, signal flags, tennis hoes, compass, flashlight.

They had been there all night. The steamer left Lake City about 8 p. m. and took up passen- gers at Wabasha for a moonlight ex- cursion. On the return trip the steamer got stuck at Alma and every effort to pull it off was unavailing. Officers were still studying early today how to get the boat clear. It was possible that the passengers would be unloaded on small boats to float the steamer clear.
