Sherman, Bax- ter said. was engaged to his sister, at that time, and Baxter caused the en ement to be broken. Another story Is to the effect that Mr. Baxter, immediately after the fight, expressed the hope that “Flo Hart” would not like Lowell so well with his new “hare 1ip." Miss Hart is hostess of a fashignable club which both Sherman and Baster much trequent However, that may be, there is no that the ball lived up to all its historical precodents. Wholly de from Mr. Lowell Sherman, it indubitably was a “knockout.”” Some even go so0 far as to describe it as a “staggering succees.” European nations as a whole and not separate states should pay the cost of the war, which was a com- mon_enterprise, but America should determine for herself what share she had in the conflict, Walter Thomas Layton, editor of the London Econ- omist, said_last night in an address at George Washington University. Layton, whose subject was the Dawes report, said that, although it was not original. it was a great and unmistakable boon for kuropean trade. He said ll British economists are confident that the plan will work “Britain is for the Dawes plan be- cause it will stabilize currency. It will also increase our foreign trade and this will do away with our un- employment, which is largely com- Posed of men from shipping, coal and fron industries,” the British econ- omist stated. He said that all the features of the Dawes plan not already in operation |\were discussed at reparation conf. lonces. He cited the League of 1 tion's plan for Austria as the prece- dents for the Dawes plar A He also recalled the disastrous ef- fects of the French occupation of the Ltubr Valley. He declared that during | this time stcaling was not by worker | from capitalist, but also from worker by worker. | This time of currency depress.on is the time for bolshevism.
