DAWES PLAN GOS INTO EFFECT TODAY Germany Defers Negotiation on 803,000 000 Gold Mark [Loan—Protests Interest. i B the Aswociated Press PARIS, September 1.—The Repara- tion Commi-sion today officially de- clared the Dawes plan in operation. The plan hecame effective at noon. Actlve negotlations between the German government and bankers of New York and London for the loan of 800,000,000 gold marks provided for under the Dawes plan are being de- ferred. They will not be started, it is understood, until the latter half of this month or until a favorable atmosphere is created by Germany's prompt payment of the sums agreed upon for the transitory period and the economic and military evacuation of the Rulr by the French and Bel- gians has made considerable progress. Interest Rate Hit. President Schacht of the Reichs- bank and Dr. Luther. the finance minister, who are likely to be the German ' government's = representa- tives in dealing with the bankers, have not yet been formally appointed When they are designated they will meet the American and English bankers in London to fix the terms of the loan, which up to the present have been discussed within vague limits during the sessions of the London conference. It is expected the duration of the loan will be! somewhere between 5 and 20 years, and an 8 per cent interest rate seems to be considered about right Dr. Schacht during informal talks he had in London with bankers there is urderstood at first to have said that § per cent seemed to him a high rate, considering the easy money rates in New York and London and high quotations in New York on numerous other Buropean issues. The reply was made, but other things should be taken into account in addition to the present ruling rate of interest. It was of the highest importance. he was told, that if con- ditions in the market should change, or if anything which looked adverse in a political sense in Europe should develop, these German bonds should not fall below their issue price. The future of German credit would be greatly influenced by this first issue, it was pointed out. If it fell below par soon after issuance for any rea- sons whatsoever, the effect would be detrimental upon all subsequent is- sues. It would be a good thing, it was suggested, to allow those who absorbed this loan to make some money out of it as a good preparation for the future Dr. Schacht is described as conced- ing that there was much to be said for this view. but that in any event Germany had to have the loan, as otherwise the whole Dawes plan would fail NATS DOWN MACKS, 5-3, IN FIRST GAME; 21,000 SEE CONTEST (Continued from First Page.)

D the Associated Press. TIFLIS, Geerglan Republic, Septem- ber 1.—An attempt to overthrow the Soviet regime in Georgia was made last Friduy night In several towns and villages of the republic, it is disclosed in an official communique issued by the Georgian council of commissars. The communique announces the suppression of a counter revolution- ary rising at Tshiateury, in the Kut- als district, where rebels seized the town but were disloged by Rovern- ment forces. The announcement claims that the movement has been fully liquidated and the leaders cap- tured. The rising is ascribed to supporters of the former government, who, des- ite public announcement that they woulid abstain from a struggle against the Soviet regime, were preparing for civil war.

Three destroyers have been ordered to Shanghai and the gunboat Sacra- mento to Amoy, China, a precau- tionary measure, by Admiral Thomas | Washington, commander-in-chief of th atic fleet. The destroyers named in dispatches to the Navy Department today from Admiral Washington are the Tracy, Borie and Smith Thompson.

Admiral Washington's action pre- sumably was requested by American dtp’omatic officers in Pekin and it is not regarded as Improbable by offi- clals here that the Pekin diplomatic | body, comprising representatives ot other foreign powers, approved the step and that it will be followed by movements of other than American naval craft to Shanghai and other affected ports. Warning By Diplomats. was recalled in this connection that the diplomatic representatives in Pekin reiterated thelr warning to that government that all foreign nationals, properties and other in- terests in or about Shanghai should be given adequate protection in the event of hostilities. The communi- cation addressed to the Pekin au- thorities said if the Pekin govern- ment failed to accord protection in this regard the governments inter- ested would adopt “such measures and utilize such means as are avail- able” to them for use in China. SIX SAILORMEN RESCUED AFTER FOUR DAYS ADRIFT Survivors of° Wrecked Schooner Lived Off Flying Fish—Three Others Lost. By the Associated Pres: AST HAMPTON, N. Y., September | ix survivors of the four-masted auxiliary schooner Samuel W. Hatha- way, wrecked at sea last Tuesday in a hurricane that swept the Atlantic seaboard, were picked up early today by the steamship Southern Cross, bound from Buenos Aires for New York. The rescued sailormen were found floating atop of the schooner's sky- light, where they had existed for four days. eating such flying fish that they snared and drinking water that they caught in their hats. The rescued men were suffering se- verely from their experiences and were taken to the hospital of the Southern Crosg, which reported the rescue to the Independent Wireless Co. station here. The Southern Cross is due in New York today. The Hathaway's sailors reported that the schooner's engineer and one sailor were drowned in the blow and Capt. Eliott of the Hathaway was last seen Tuesday night clinging to a raft. The rescue was made at 4:30 o'clock this morning. The Hathaway was bound from Charleston, S. C., loaded with fertilizer for San Juan, P. R., and foundered in the hurricane at 10 o'clock Tuesday morning. The schooner was owned by Crowell & Thurlow of Boston. Among the rescued was a steward named Melvin and a boatswain, Olla- son. It U. S. LONE BRIGHT SPOT IN WORLD, DAVIS SAYS Labor Secretary Sees Working Man and Capital Moving Toward Close Co-Operation. By the Asociated Press. NEW YORK, September 1.—“Amer- fca is the one bright spot in a world of economic gloom,” James J. Davis, Secretary of Labor, declared today in a Labor day address at Fort Ham- ilton before the Central Trades and Labor Council of Greater New York. “The American worker and the American manager of industry are moving rapidly toward complete co- operation—toward that mutual good- will and mutual understanding which ultimately will assure permanent peace In industry,” he said. Through- out our whole economic system from top to bottom we see the evidence of prosperity. He attributed the con- dition of the worker in this country to the maintenance of high wage standards following the war, which upheld the nation’s purchasing pow- er, while European industries and European laborers were in slough of depression. He also took occasion to deplore the prevalence of the jurisdictional dispute within the labor movement as a “breeder of strikes” and to urge further that voting workmen “shun the will-0’-the-wisp millennium prom- ised by the visionaries who would, through .government ownership of industries or similar nostrums, rob America of what freedom of opportu- nity for the individual which has wrought so successfully for Ameri- can growth and prosperit: —_ AUTO KILLS MISSISSIPPIAN Car Turns Over on Clayton D.

HOUGHTON CERTAIN DAWES PLAN HELPS (Continued from First Page.) is the case because the entire re- sources of the German nation’ are pledge as collateral. “American capital has an even wider interest in the adoption of the Dawes report and in what is bound to be its beneficent aftermath. That interest is that there now will open up for American investment in Ger- many a practically unlimited field of opportunity. Germany is starving for the capital requisite for her de- velopment in almost every con- ceivable direction. It can be invested at extraordinarily attractive rates of Interest, compared to the returns ob- tainable in the United States. 1In many respects, Germany today re- sembles one of our Western States in the days before Eastern and foreign capital came into them. British Also to Invest. “It is altogether probable that British capital will be found ready to join with American money in the pacific penetration of Germany. If such a combination should ensue, it is my private opinion that the cause of European peace—and that means world peace—will be effectively en- hanced.” Mr. Houghton was asked if he Is persuaded that Germany means to “play the game and live loyally up to the conditions now incumbent upon her.”” “I have the firmest con- viction she will do so” he sald. “Germany will keep the faith. She at length has a practical induce- ment to do so, for her responsible men hitherto have felt that Germany has been asked to fulfill impossible conditions. She s now faced by workable conditions. America's part in bringing them about, which freely: acknowjedged throughout Ger- ‘many, is not the least of her reasons |2 is: (Photographs by National Photo Co.) for making a sincere and earnest effort to carry out the Dawes plan in letter and in spirl American Investors are certaln to consider seriously the eventual effect of an industrial Germany, rehabili- tated by American capital, upon the industry of the United States. In other words, will a eGrmany financed and bulwarked with American dol- lars not become, sooner or later, an even flercer rival of the United States in world markets than the pre-war Germany? Europe is full of similar quaims. Some authorities who are in touch with present-hour con- ditions in Germany scout such a possibility. They argue the old-time industrial “punch” of the Germans is gone. The former discipline vanish- ed, they claim, with the monarchy. The ancient apprenticeship system has been largely wiped out. The 8- hour day is practically universal, wages are vastly higher, working- men are out of hand, and, generally, German industry is not the vital competitor it once was. This is the picture the Germans paint of them- selves. Many authorities doubt whether it is a strictly accurate plc- ture, —_— KILLED IN AUTO CRASH.

Defines One Main Insue. “There is but one issue before the country today. It is: ‘Shall the con- trol of the government be left in the hands of the small group that has cornered- the national wealth and ex- ploited the people? Or shall the con- trol of the government be returned to the representatives of the people to be administered in the interest of the masses, to be so administered that the right of every man, woman and child to food and clothing and shelter and health and happiness is placed above property rights and the claims of profit?' “Gen. Dawes (I use the title general in memory of his gallant service as commander of the minute men in his war on organized labor) says the is- Sue is conservatism vs. radicalism. He attempts to picture Coolidge and Dawes as representing conservatism and La Follette and Wheeler as rep- resenting radicalism. “The general, bluff soldier that he is, finds no issue between his party and the Democratic party and names none. He could tell the truth by ex- plaining that behind the word con- servatism there is hiding Big Busi- ness, representing less than 5 per cent of our population, who want things to go on as they are, and, if he could tell the truth, by further explaining that by radicalism is meant the desire for a change for the better on the part of the great mass of the people who produce the wealth of the nation. < Ready to Fight it Out. “He would have you believe that all those who desire that the people, and not Wall street, shall rule are radicals. We will meet him on this day by day until it shall finally be settled at the polls next November by the people themselves. “Most of our political problems, in fact, are economic problems. What except an economic issue is at the bottom of the spectacle of corrup- tion at Washington which has shock- ed the people of the country the past few years? This corruption in the executive branches of the Govern- ment is not a simple matter of in- dividual dishonesty, but is a natural outgrowth of the system by which Presidents and and Vice Presidents of the United States have come to be nominated. “In all my studies of political his- tory, T cannot recall an administra- tional more venal, more corrupt, more destructive of the rights of the people than the administration of the Republican party during the last three and one-half years. We need not go beyond the records. There is Albert B. Fall, Edwin Denby and Harry M. Daugherty driven from the cabinet by an outraged public senti- ment. I ask you, Mr. Coolidge, to explain to the people of your own State, if you can, why Fall and Forbes and Daugherty were allowed to go scot free.

MOTTA IS ELECTED LEAGUE PRESIDENT Former Swiss Chief Execu- tive Chosen—Speed Marks Opening Session. By the Asociated Press GENEVA, September 1.—Dr. Giusep- pe Motta, former President of Swit- zerland, was today elected president of the fifth mssembly of the League of Nations. Businesslike efficiency and speed marked the inauguration today of the work of the fifth assembly. Paul Hymans, Belgian's energetic foreign minister, who opened its proceeding: in his capacity as president of the council of the league, conducted af- fairs like the chairman of the board of directors of some big American organization. None the less, he spoke | long and seriously to convince his large audience that this assembly could achieve great things if it would in assuring lasting peace for the world by finding a solution of the grave problem of security as a neces- | sary step toward the reduction of armaments. Referring to the London agree- ment for a reparation settlement with Germany, he said it ushered in a period of quietude and progress on the road of civilization and had | caused a new and hopeful era to suc- | ceed the previous times of trial, sac- | rifice and suffering. He remarked | that countries which were not yet| members of the league, like the | United States, Germany, Russia and | Turkey, had participated in the work | of the technical organizations of the | league, pointing out that thus the | league's sphere of action was rapid- 1y being extended and the spirit of solidarity daily gaining strength. Sees Hostility Aroused. The League of Nations, he said had aroused the persistent hostility of all who worshipped force and who represented patriotism as wearing a mask of hatred and anger, and “who | degrade the love of country into an | egotistical and ferocious national- | ism.” There he continued, in ringing | oratorical phrases, a tendency in | certain quarters to oppose the idea | of country to the idea of solidarity, | as if these were conflicting and ir- | reconcilable conceptions. Yet, to use | the words of M. Barthou of France, | he said, “the spirit of international- | ism can and ought to be in harmony | with the idea of country.” Applause burst from the galleries | as M. Hymans flayed the enemies of | the league as being opponents of | progress and civilization. Alluding | to the charge that the league was a | superstate, the Belgian minister de-! clared it did not supersede the func- | tions of individual countries but ex- | tended, developed and encouraged them. | “Individual countries,” he declared, | “do not lose a single iota fo those i alienable righte which are alike their | protection and their pride. | Asks World Look Ahead. | M. Hymans appealed to the world | to look forward and not to look | backward to the terrible war that| had begun 10 years ago this Summer. | The memory of great deeds done, the | heroic sacrifices made, the blood so courageously shed must be cherished, | he said, but the time had now ar- rived to safeguard the world from the recurrence of such disasters as had occurred and to establish on an unshakable foundation the reign of law and the sanctity of treaties. “Let us advance firmly through doubts and difficulties,” he added, “to | the heights where justice and peace sit_enthroned.” M. Hymans laid emphasis on the creation of the Permanent Court of International Justice as one of the finest accomplishments of mankind. He said the league had before it the | task of bringing about an atmos- phere of co-operation and solidarity in which the spirit of an ardent de- sire for peace would be predominant. He also dwelt upon the importance of the reconstruction of Austrian and Hungarian finances under the league. The éxact situation concerning the plans for reduction of armaments and the adoption of the pact for mu- tual assistance was set forth by the speaker. He touched briefly upon more important results of the league's activities over a wide range of sub- jects, judical, political, humanitarian and others, making special mention of the achievment of Norman H. Davis in settling the Memal dispute and the good work of Jeremiah T. Smith, as tke league commissioner in Hunggry. M. Hylnans insisted, however, that the problem which came foremost with people all over the world, was the problem of security—a problem which must be solved to bring about the reign of peace. To obtain ma- terial disarmament, he declared, there must develop what he termed a “moral disarmament,” having its root in a spirit of confidence. He empha- sized the significance of the coming here of Premiers MacDonald and Her- riot as indicating the determination of the political leaders of the world to settle this problem. The League of Natlons, M. Hy- mans, insisted, was indispensable now to international life, as the cen- ter of co-operation, and as an entente between the governments. He urged the league to turn toward the goal without & lift of and eyebrow. * o Asks Reply by Collidge. “True to his masters' command, President Coolidge went to Wall Street for a successor to the recent Attorney General, and finally to ex- press his contempt of public opinion and comman decency he left in the Department of Justice the Same men who had so badly assisted Daugherty in his efforts to protect the corrupt interests that have been looting his country. “President Coolidge is a candidate for President of the United States. He has a record and must be Judged by that record. Mr. Coolidge, you are before the bar of public judgment. Stand up and answer for your deeds of omission. Knowing Mr. Daugh- erty, as you did, why was it neces- ry for the legislative branch of the Government to expose the corruption in the Department of Justice before you would dake & step to remove him from office? Why, Mr. Coolidge, do you atill keep in the Department of of establishing a reign of law and justice throughout the earth, and to assure fidelity to treaties so that the peace might never be broken. Justice those men who worked hand in hand with Daugherty In protecting crime and criminals? I ask these things, Mr. Coolidge, I ask them in the name of—common sense. * * *. “This is Labor's day. I have rea- son to believe that this audience is largely composed of workers. But I have endeavored to appeal to you today, not as a class within the American body politic with special Wishes and speclal needs, but as aver- age citizens who ask only a square deal. Today I have tried simply to indicate that so long as our political parties are controlled entirely by the financial interests we must expect corruption in the national Govern- ment. This constitutes a condition that cannot be cured by silence in the White House, but silence in all that issues from the White House.” |a woman seen the murder car o | virginia— MORE CLUES FAIL INOFFICER'S DEATH Suspected Auto Stopped, But Not Murder Car—Funera of Leisinger Today.
