Can a schedule be worked out which will not ruin German industry and at the same time yield to the allies a revenue of respectable size? Can sufficient pressure be exercised in Berlin financial circles to make them change their attitude on the reparations? Certain authorities here. who are undoubtedly well informed profess themselves skeptical on these points. has even heard it said ‘man industrial magnates are laughing in their sleeves at the futile labors in which the allies have involved themselves. It is a fact that German exchange has grown no worse since the punitive measures were put in force. French Work Rapldly. “Our work is going along as rapid- Iy as possible,” protested M. Tirard, the French president of the commis- sion, “and by the end of the week we hope to have worked out and sub- mit to the allied governments a com- plete rate schedule. n before that certain nominal duties may be im- posed just to show the Germans that we are in_earne; Meanwhile it is true that the French authorities have begun to es- tablish control stations along the railway lines and wagon road in the Mayence bridgehead, though only as a preliminary measure. They will levy and collect no charges save in concert with the rest of the allies.” Three Courses for U. S. Maj. Gen. Henry T. Allen has three courses open to him in the American zone. He can forbid the allies to operate in his territory, refuse to act with them, or allow them to act without his consent. The general opinion here indicates that he will hardly be just to the nations the United States aided in the war. To co-operate in the collection of cus- toms, on the other hand, would in- volve the question of the American attitude toward the treaty of Ver- sailles. Theoretically, Germany must pay all the cost of the new operations, but. until she consents to do so the burden will fall on the allied treas- uries. The salaries alone will amount to a large sum, for many revenue officers will have to be imported from France, Belgium and Great Britain. It _is thought, in fact, that the sum will be large enough to eat up the receipts. STRUCK BY FAST TRAIN, HURLEDTO STREAM, LIVES Tennessee Man Swims to Safety, Never Losing Consciousness.
