America's Willingness to Sit
at Reparations Meet#
Lifts Clouds of
Depression.
I
Plan Experts’ Meeting
By Associated Fresi.
London, Oct. 26— America’s deci
sion to lend its advice and co-opera
tion in a conference for the settle
ment of the German reparation mud
dle seems to have lighted Europe out
of the slough of depression.
Secretary Hughes’ prompt and de
cisive response to Marquis Curzon s
plea for American assistance has
given impetus to a situation which
has heretofore been marked by utter
inertia, and for the first time British
officials today began to see a rift in
the mists which have so long en
veloped the problem.
America’s voice, stressing the 1m
-perative need of finding a suitable
financial plan to prevent economic
distaster in Europe, found prompt
echoes in Paris, Brussels and Rome,
for it became known late this after
noon at the British foreign office
that Frtince, Belgium and Italy had
all accepted the principle of an ad
visory conference of experts. <
While the British authorities would
have preferred a full conference of
ministers to liquidate the reparation
troubles, they hope the preliminary
conference of experts will lead to a
larger council of allied and American
statesmen._
France’s consent to enter the ad
visory conference of experts will in
volve the question of acceptance of
the American principle that the inter
allied debts and German reparations
must be divorced, a point upon which
Premier Poincare heretofore has dif
fered from Great Britain and the
United States.
France will also have to face the
question of reducing the amount of
indemnity expected from Germany
under tiitf ^ oisaijies treaty, stucb *n
the past has been fixed at 6,800,000,
000 pounds sterling, or 132,000,000,000
gold marks. This sum, and the ques
tion of granting a moratorium to Ger
W)(*iny, were the points which led to
the failure of the last expert bankers’
commission, of which J. <P. Morgan
was a member.
If, as the British government anti
cipates, M. Poincare agrees to these
and other conditions, it will then re
main only for the nations participat
ing in the conference to appoint their
experts and formulate a program of
procedure. *
British oficials seem to favor Ber
lin as the principal seat of the confer
ence, as this would make Germany s
books and records and the German
officials themselves more accessible to
the experts who are to appraise Ger
many's assets and its capacity to re
deem its indemnity obligations.

Veteran Omaha' Physician Visits
Old Stone House, Hk Birthplace
Dr. J. B. Ralph, 82, Hale and
Hearty, Makes Trip
Back East.
A few weeks ago Dr. J. B. Ralph,
venerable Omaha physician and for
mer health commissioner, knocked at
the' door of an old stone house 10
miles out of Wilmington, Del.
The kindly old mistress of the place
bade the visitor enter, thinking he
might be a prospective lodger and
that there would be money in her
purse if she extended hospitality.
"I was born in this house 82 years
ago and i Just called around to see
it once more," the Omahan explained.
"I left the old home when I was
16; it has been 66 years slr.ce 1
have seen it.”
, Dr. Ralph went through the house
and recalled tender memories of hi?
childhood. He saw again the room
in which he was bdrn, and the large
dining room where 11 children once
gathered to break bread. He saw the
old vault, built In the side of a hill
for keeping perishable (foods.
Mr. Ralph says the old home was
built of stone and contains 12 rooms.
It has stood Impervious to the ele
ments far nearly a century, solid in
construction and severe In its archi
tectural lines.
Dr. Ralph was 82 on September 25.
He is know as "The Kid,” at his
home, and there’s a reason. During
the last year he has demonstrated
I Dr. J. B. ii^aTjpTc j
that a man need not be old at 80.
He has gone in for walking and eat
ing the foods that he should eat. He
has gained 25 pounds*since last spring,
walks three or four miles a day, and
recently made an extensive eastern
trip, beginning with the G. A. R.
encampment at Milwaukee.

Dry Spell Is Broken j
in Yukon Territory
' Victoria, B. C.. Oct. 26—The
Yukon territory "dry" spell ha*
been broken and liquor has been
entering the district as freely as
ever, according to Reports received
here by police authorities.
Although Yukon Is officially
[ *'wet," the territory had faced a
drouth because the only Ingress
is through Alaska, which, being an
American territory, comes under
the federal ban against the trans
portation of liquor within its
borders.
Someone or other Is believed to
have found a way of crossing the
Alaskan panhandle with the for
bidden wet goods. Knowledge of
the source of supply has been care
fully guarded, the authorities de
clare.
Months ago, however, the police
point out, it was announced that
$100,000 worth of liquor was In
Vancouver, B. C., warehouses,
awaiting shipment to the Yukon ns
soon as the Alaskan authorities
would permit transportation. The
authorities here are Inclined to be
lieve that most of the liquor cross
Ing the border was disguised ns
"canned goods."

Wheat on Credit
for Germany
ml
Coolidge Hears Plan From!
Western Delegation to
Stabilize' Price.
- t
Mperlal IMupatrb to The Omaha Bee.
Washlngto, Oct. 26.—A plan for
shipment of 50,000,000 bushel* of
wheat to Germany, and granting of
two years or more for that country
to make payment hns been broached
to the administration.
Iifforts are being made. It was an
nounced yesterday, to g*t Germany
to oak American exporters of wheat
to ship It 50,000,000 bushels, and thus
put the American wheat market on
a domestic basis. President Coolidge
and Secretary Henry C. Wallace were
told of the plan today by a commit
tee consisting of George Marcy, presi
dent of the American Grain company;
C. K. Lewis, pres cient of the C. K.
Lewis Grain company of Minneapolis;
George A. Roberta of the Roberts
Grain company, Omaha, and W. K.
Gould, vice president of the Kewanee
State Saving bank, Kewanee. HI.
They assured the officials that It
would not be difficult to meet the
Germnn representatives to make thls^
request. The committee said the War
Finance corporation should purchase
drafts on wheat shipments under
these conditions up to 10.000.006
bushels, without recourse on the ship
per. If this plan proves to be Im
practical, the committee stated they
wished the president to call an extra
session of congress, giving the War
Finance corporation adequate power.
Would Help Com nnd Hogs.
"The shipment of 50,000,000 bushels
of whent not only would Improve the
whent market here, with a substantial
Indroase In price, but the corn mar
li-et would react In sympathy," Mr.
Marry wild in a statement to Secre
tary Wallace. “It would mean that
we would have TO to T5 cent corn
throughout the winter. Hogs nre com
ing t<» market 'lean na dogs.’ The
turners, larking confidence In the
corn and hog mniket, do not feel
that they should tnko the gamble of
fattening their* hogs. We have no
surplus corn, but w.> do have ninny
hogs. If \ve rould get a more liberal
feeding of hogs, we could make more
lard, and we have an outlet for it lu
Herman) 1 expect to s< r the price of
hogs go up to x cents a poynd, if we
ran move this wheat out of the coun
try nnd do It promptly.
The far reaching effert of such a
sale of wheat, which I fun convinced
can and will he made some way Is
almost limitless. The Increased buy
ing power of the farmer would he
directly reflected aud almost Hnmedl
utely solve prohlotus, to the railroads,
to labor and a better market for all
agricultural and manufacturing pro
iluction would prevail
Suggests I lie her Tariff.
"The prices of some kinds of wheat
in this country mis approaching the
price across the Canadian border, phis
the tariff differential. Wo would
like to see the tariff wall raised In
coalue -»ior> with ths #»purta'w '*
‘ *
a large quantity; a very great benefit
would accrue to ua even with the
existing tariff barrier. The exporta
tion of wheat would bring about more
of an equalization In price* between
the hard winter wheals and the
durum variety which now Is differen
tiated against to the extent of 10 to
15 centB a bushel.
"It is of vital concern to the farm
ers and the country in general that we
export 40,000,000 to 50,000.000 bushels
of wheat before the Argentine crop
comes on to the world market In Jan
uary and February. Wo believe our
proposal does not require congres
sional action, for the War Finance
corporation has ample authority to
issue securities without recourse. It
wns created by congress to act as a
buffer and to help put agriculture on
Its feet.
"Eugene Meyer. Jr., director of the
corporation, has consistently failed
to lend Its aid In getting this surplus
off our markets, and on to foreign
markets. Wheat sent by us to Ger
many would sink out of sight very
rapidly for It would tie utilized to sup
ply the bread lines.
