A campaign for $125.000 with which to equip the Boys' Club of Washing- ton with a b house. swimming pocl, and other facilities will open tomor- row. The campaign committee, head- ed by Frank R. Jelleff, will establish headquarters in_room 214D of the ional Press Building. e npaign workers have been or- ganized into committees and will make intensive efforts to obtain the desired fund. Contributions will be received at headquarters which will be in charge of F. V. Thomson, sec- retarv of the club. Members of the general campaign committee include Rov L. Newhouser, William L.

The present quarters of the cluh fa an old building at Third and C streets, first occupied by the bo: when the club was organized in 192 with a dozen members, have become inadequate now that there are 1,248 bo! who avail themselves of the privileges of the club and the oppor- tunities for development it offers. Tentative plans for the new club- house, construction of which is de- pendent upon the success of the cam- paign which opens tomorrow, call for an auditorium, classrooms, four shops, two gamerooms, bowling alleys and swimming pool. The pool will be 75 feet long and will accomo- date 1,500 boys a day, who will be under the supervision of trained life guards. Officials Indorse Work. Sponsors of the club point out that the present facilities are inadequate for the needs of the club and boys have to be turned away who should be able to avail themselves of the privileges of membership. Work ot the club has received the indorse- ment of District officials, it was stated, and other representative civic leaders. In the gymnasium the boys par- ticipate in various sports and join in regular physical training classes. The wood-working shop develops individ- ual skill and inculcates a know- Jedge of handicraft. The local club won the 1925 prize shield for wood- working, competing against 260 clubs in the International Club Federation and in_1926 the club's printing class took first award at the annual printing exhibit in New York. Club attendance figures indicate a total attendance between November 1, 1926 and July 31, 1927, of 61,920. Fetween 300 and 400 boys are han- dled daily, Secretary Thomson said. . AUSTRIAN TEACHERS PROTEST THEIR LOT Burgenland Pedagogues Threaten Strike Unless Relieved of Menial Duties. By the Associated Press. VIENNA, October 22.—Because of teing required to shave the parish riest, wash hig vestments and clothes, !ury the dead, sweep out the churches and perform other similar services, school teachers of the Burgenland dis- trict, who now are under the Vienna archepiscopate, threaten a national atrike. The teachers' grievances date from the time when Burgenland was part of Hungary and the clergy were all- powerful. The teachers now seek the 2ame privileges and liberties enjoyed by their profession in the rest of Aus- tria. ‘A deputation of parish pedagogues fom Burgenland protested against their lot today at a mass meeting of Viennese teachers. The deputation declared that in Burgenland the teach- ers, although refined and highly edu- cated, are regarded still as menials. They petitioned their Viennese asso- ciate to have the Austrian National Assembly accord them what they con- sider their proper status. The petitioners stated they not only act as valets to the priests, but they Jead the singing and collective praycrs at high mass, play the organ, assist at every funeral, attend the priest While changing vestments, wash the altar linen, bake sacramental wafers, sweep the church, remove snow on walks between the priest's house and the church, teach catechism and Scrip- ture 1 achool, shave, wash and attend to the personal wants of the priest. .

GERMAN FINANCES Loans and Execution of| Dawes Plan Seen as Cause | of Much Concern. | BY GERVILLE REACHE. By Radio to The Star. PARIS, October —Germany’s for- eign loans and t arrying out of | the Dawes’ plan already have caused much ink to flow throughout the world. Shortly these questions will be- come exceedingly acute. It is believed here to be quite pos- sible that they will take a prominent place in American political discus- sion when Congress convenes. since Senator Carter Glass has declared that a law should be passed depriv- ing the State Department of the privilege of vetoing private loans to Europe, and President Coolidge is re- ported as saying that he would veto such an act. Reparations Issue Reopened. So far as Europe is concerned, this | problem has reopened the whole rep: rations question which_jas lain do; mant since the Dawés plan was adopted. The Coolidge administration opposition to the Prussian loan of| $30,000,000 was overcome only by the | insertion of a clause in the prospectus invoking article No. 243 of the Ver- sailles treaty and stipulating priority for the Dawes payments over those of the loan. The powers of the Ge: man Foreign Commission also were de- fined and a new system for con- trolling such loans was instituted, giving the German finance minister and the Reichsbauk a preponderant vote, In the meantime, partisans of Eng- 1and are seizing the oportunity to pro- | claim that the Dawes plan is impos- | sible of execution and even the aus- tere Times mentions the necessity of revising the plan and warns against too great liberality in loans to Ger- many until the legal interpretation of the peace treaty as affected by the Dawes plan has been settled. | Ot course, this British attitude is | warmly welcomed in Germany, where | there is a_ permanent conspiracy against the Dawes plan. But France and Belgium are beginning to be.seri- ously worried by this concealed threat | to another voluntary bankruptey by Germany to avoid reparation. Speeches like that made by Herr Duisberg at the annual industrial congress and the attitude of Minister of Public Eco- nomics Curtius have created a most unfortunate impression here. . Budget Deficit Cited. The prospect is still further dark- ened by examination of the German budget situation. The budget, for the first four months of the fiscal year, shows excess receipts of $180,000,000, yet for the whole year it is said it would show a deficit because of very obscure reasons, such as failure to collect certain taxes, enormous re- funds to states and towns and hold- overs of appropriations from one fiscal year to the next. But yet authoritative German econo- mists have demonstrated that the re- sources of the reich are sufficient to | meet both reparation and foreign loan payments on condition that Germany continue production and export. Germany's internal and external debt is only half of what it was before | the war. Last March it totaled 23,000, 000,000 marks as against 48,000,000 000 marks in 1913, and this redu tion has greatly aided in rebuilding, saving and regenerating _industrial fupllal and in meeting public expendi- ures.
