Particular attention was naid to an alleged Vnfavorable trade bal- ance of a billion marks in Germany whereas a large favorable balance might be regarded as essential fo meeting the Dawes plan payments and interests on private loans, Interest Rates Compared During this morning’s session the experts began looking into the use made in Germany of the foreign credits accorded either the Reich government or the municipalities, as well as the rates of interest as com- ipared with other countrivs. Dr. Schacht was again the prin- cipal speaker for Germany. The discussion remained along generall ties and will probably continue so until sometime next week when some of the more vital points ~t is- sue come up. What is looked upon as the ex- treme modesty of the committee’s presiding officer, Owen D. Young, is frequently commented upon here. It was illustrated anew when Mr, Young shied at the continual refer. ences in the press to the “Youas committee.” He was quoted as hav- ing expressed a preference for the title “second Dawes committee” be- cause the new body of experts merely is continuing the work of the old one complet.ng what the first connaittee bLuegan.

Bills making. appropriations for the Groton monument und the grave of Colonel Ledyard at Fort Griswold went from the militia affairs com- mittee to the appropriations. The senate adopted the bills allow- ing the New Haven railroad to take over the manufacturers railway, in 'l\ew Haven, and extend the line, and exempting the appearance of the New England Transportation Comn- pany before the public utilities com- mission on bond matters. The bill giving the right to sue for, and colleet, damages from municipalities to persons injured in municipally owned or leased buses was adopted. In the abscnce of Lieutenant Gov- crnor Rogers, fenator Lawlor of Waterbury presided today. Doings In House The house rejected the bill pro- hibiting requests of more than one- half of estates to public uses, when there are legal heirs. much opposition when the judiciary committee held its hearing on it Other bills rejected included that providing the governor appoint a probate and land record examiner; authorizing probate courts to order sales of rights of way and ease- ments; providing a married women may have a domicile independent of Ler husband; favorable reports were received on ten local bills, one of them allowing the Boys' club of Bridgeport to hold property up to $600,000 in value.

Speaker Eddy an- rounced a letter had heen addressed |in his care, to “any anti-evolutionist member” and said anybody who will claim it can have it." The laugh had hardly subsided when Johnson arose with a motion that “we adjourn till Tuesday to give the members who claim it a chance to look at He's Selling Books The letter came from W. A. Wi liams, of 1202 Atlantic avenue, Cam- den, N.
