Although detalls were said not to have been definitely worked out, it be- came known today that it will be neces- sary to abandon a number of military posts, fncluding several in each branch of the service and to materially reduce the commands at others. One of the most important commands to suffer reduction will be that on the Mexican border, it was said. - Reports from corps areas and division commanders received at the department indicated that the men are taking advan- tage of the order permitting them to ob- tain discharzes upon application without forfeiting right to travel allowances. The order was restricted to those on . duty within the continental United States and will not affect the strength of the army of occupation in Germany or forces in the territorfal possessions. ERMANY ONLY ABLE TO PAY DEBTS WITH PRODUCTS G Hamburg, July 5—(By The A. P)— Germany and the United States were represented at the opposite poles of the world's financlal structure by Dr. Wal- ter Rahenau, minister of reconstruc- tion., in_an address today at a meeting of the Hamburg committee for the res- toration of peacetime economy. “The United States is the world's chief creditor and Germany is the world's chief debtor, with a]l ether nations sand- wiched in between these two as creditor or debtor nations, each tied to or obli- gated to one another,” he said. v Dr. Rathenau argued that fhe de- preciation of the currencies of the vari- ous nations was tending to weld them together, nome of them with the excep- tion of the TUnited States, having been able to escape the ravages of war-time and the post-war economic invasions. “German: he continued,” is not a land of gold or raw maerials, but a na- tion which lives and will continue to live by the work of her hands. We are therefore only able to pay our debts with our products, our mental and manual labor. This we honestly purpose to do.” “I is to be hoped,” said Dr. Rathenau in discussing America’'s part in the up- building of Europe, “that the mighty nation beyond the Atlantic with which we hope peace will forever unite us [as it has since yvesterday, and whose sword when laid in the balance is equally as decisive as its pen, will real- ize that conditigns in Burope cannot be corrected if a factor of such giant di- mensions as the United States with- holds its collaboration.” SAFE CRACKING BAND CAPTURED BY POLICE New York, July 5.—A safe-cracking band of burglars that operated in New- ark with crowbars instead of explosives and obtained vast loot in jewels and meney, is belleved by the police to have been rounded up through two arrests in New York, two more at Savin Rocy near New Haven, and another in Provi- dence. muel Bender, arrested last night at Savin Rock with an alleged accomplice, Harry Feinberg, was brought here to- |ni’.:hl from New Hacen.
