The first committee of experts pre- sided» over by Brigadier-General Charles G. Dawes will hold a pignary session tomorrow afternoon. It is believed the report of the ex- perts will be virtually finished Sat- urday with the possibility of giving it to the press next'wetk. Collect Annual Sums The plan for settling the repora- tions tangle the general lines of which haye been agreed upon unan- imously by the experts, calls for the collection of progressively mounting sums annually, according to the re- pidity of Germany's recovery for a tentative period of five years. There will be three principal sources of revenue—first, excise taxes on various monopolies such as matches, spirits and tobacco; seccnd, interest from bonds to be issued by Germany's railways up to approxi- mately half their estimated valuation and third, through dividends from stock in the new gold issue bank. Reduce Allied Control To reduce us, far as possible allied control over Germany’s production in order to give Gerihany the neces- sury incentive to produce the plan pulates the minimum amount that must be set aside for the allies from ‘ach of three sources of revenue. Dnce Germany satisfies this. mini- mum which the experts are trying to place at a reasonable figure all the surplus will go to the German trea- sury to be used as the government fit. If Germany's producing ca- vacity increases over the scale of payment fixed, the plan provides that at the end of five years there will be a revision of the scale of pay- nents. The revenue from all three sources will be divided among the allies ac- -ording to the percentages decided at the Spa conference.

WOMEN TO BE ON SAME PLANE AS MEN IN ELECTION NEXT TUESDAY { North Dakota women will be exact- ly upon the same plane as men when they step into the ballot booths in North Dakota next Tuesday, Each will receive the same ballot and no separate count will be maintained, as a result of legislative action, Here- tofore notés of men and women were kept separately, due to a survival of laws which governed the voting when women had only partial franchise- ment in the state. The polls will be closed at 7 p. m. instead*of 9 p, m., also a change made by\the legislature, while the polls will open at 9 a. m, as usual.

The assistant ttorney-general, quotes section 91, compiled laws of 1913 as follows: “Each elector shall be nanced the ballot of the party with which he declares himself affiliated, or with which he have registered at the Hlast preceding registration or elec- tion, et.” i The opinion continues: “It is our opinion that in accordance withthe foregoing provision an elector has the right to declare himself affiliated with the political party of his choice and when he so does the ballot of such party must be handed to him. In case he refuses to declare his choice, then he must be handed the ballot of the party with which he registered, at the last, preceding re- gistration.” U. §.
