The entire New GERMAN MARK THIS, FOLKS, IS THE TROUBL TO BE WORTH ABOUT 24 CENTS AMERICAN; NOW IT CAN BE HAD! i» |FOR A SINGLE COPPER—AND MAY BE DEAR AT THE PRICE! is BY J. W. T. MASON Authority on International Affairs Who Recently Returned From Europe New York, Sept. 20—The German mark is falling because Germany is continuing to issue paper money with- out increasing her gold reserve. At present the German government has one gold mark in reserve for ev- ery 90 paper marks being circulated. The proportion should be one ‘in two or one in three for the German cur- rency tobe on a safe-basis. , The fall in marks has nothing to do with any effort by Germany to evade paying the war indemnity. The in- demnity can be paid for the most part only in Germany goods. The fall in marks will make it more difficult. for Germany ‘to purchase raw materials abroad which must be used in producing manufactured articles to be sold in foreign markets for meeting the indemnity demands. But, by no possibility could the German government deliberately cause a fall in marks so as to compel Ger- man manufacturers to pay more for their raw materials. French Wrong French criticisms that Germany is deliberately arranging to go into bankruptcy as a way of wiping out the indemnity have no basis, in fact. German bankruptcy would not dis turb the amount of actual goods in Germany, and these goods are the counters in the. indemnity matter. It is more likely that the French critcism of Germany’s financial weak- ness is preparatory to an admission by French financiers and economists that the time has come when -France OFFICIAL HOSTESS OF CONGRESS Stephen G.

These goods already are beginning | to disturb the [French markets at| home and-abroad. French manufac- turers are feeling the enforced Ger-' man competition. | If Germany continues to pay the indemnity in the form of her own! manufactured articles for an inde=j terminate time, France will become} Germany’s economic vassal. It is now being admitted in official! financial. circles in, Paris that a new| way must be found for accepting the indemnity. No «feasible method of acceptance; has yet been devised. If none is forthcoming, then France will | have. to let Germany off, | ~ Ly The French fear of German bank- ruptcy, therefore, is an artificial fear. The greater fear in France ‘is that France-herself will have to admit be- fore long that Germany must be pre- vented from paying. Effect on France This will’ not mean France’s own bankruptcy. There is still a large; margin in France for increasing tax- ation, and enormous sums of money can be saved if France will reduce her present standing army of 800,000 men to.a reasonable ‘basis. ‘By these methods of increasing do- mestic revenue and decreasing goy- ernmental expenses, France even- tua]ly will be able to safeguard her- self against financial disaster without the German indemnity.

Bergeson & Son Dry Cleaning Bismarck, N.D. Tailoring | | i | WANT ADS BRING RESULTS BUNE For many years the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has been perfecting an organization with the sole purpose of giving the consuming public a maxi- mum of service at.a minimum of cost. Todo this, four large refineries have been built and equipped; 3,700 bulk stations have been placed at strategic points throughout the 11 states served; _more than 1,300 seryice stations have been located af convenient points so that Standard Oil Company (Indiana ) products may be obtained every few miles in the country and every few blocks in the city. Fleets of tank wagons and motor trucks are always in service ready to deliver Red Crown Gasoline, Per- fection Kerosene and other Standard Oil products to consumers, wherever they may live. In organizing this vast net - work of. service, those responsible for the management of the Company have had two major objects in view; first, to reduce the cost of manufacturing, marketing, and distributing to the lowest point possible; second, to make prices which would be fair to the consuming public. ~ While mindful of the rights and - privileges of its competitors, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) believes that its first duty is to the consuming public. - During the present unsettled condi- tions in the petroleum industry, this Company has reduced the selling price of its goods as rapidly as sound management would permit, and it proposes to continue this practice. This policy conforms to the estab- lished practice of the Company of letting service take care of volume, and volume take care of profits and return to the 20,621 stockholders, not one of whom owns as much as 10 percent of the capital stock.
