Entire National and Private
Fortune to Be Pledged
to Allies Under
Di sves Plan.
Necessary Laws Drafted
By KAlii. II. VON WIEGAND,
1 nlveraul Service staff Correspondent.
Berlin, July IS.—Germany is all sot
to carry out the biggest pawning
transaction in history, pledging the
whole national and private fortune
of a nation of 60,000,000 persons in
order to pay for the lost war.
The laws to make this transaction
possible, as provided under the Dawes
plan, have been completed except for
final scrutiny and filing with the
reparations commission.
I learn the government has defi
nitely determined to place the laws
before the reiehstag and drive them
through with all the power at com
mand as soon as they come back
from reparations commission, hut
will make their operation dependent
on the passage of a special enabling
law".
Ash Definite Dale.
Tn order to get the enabling law,
however, the government considers
it essential that the allies assembled
at the London conference he asked
first, to set a definite date at which
time I lie Dawes plan is to go into ef
fect and second, that Germany lie
given assurance that the allies will
have carried out their part in the
Dawes plan by that date.
Dnder "the allies' part" Germany
includes not only the complete
economic liberation of the Kuhr add
the Rhineland hut also military
evacuation of the Ruhr, for which it
has asked that definite d.'.tes lie set.
These demands are not made as
"conditions” but are termed "ir
i evocable propositions contained in
ihe Dawes plan itself," without whose
fulfillment Germany will lie unable
to carry out Us end of the bargain.
The transaction itself Is provided
Tor In t^ree laws. The first pawns
the German-owned railroads for a lit
tle loss than $3,000 000.000. The sec
ond pawns German Industry and
hade for $1,250,000,000, the money
thus raised to go to the allies through
the reichsbank, which is to be reor
ganized as a collection agency and
turned over to foreign control by
the third law.
New Railway Company.
The management of the railways
and ownership of rolling stock and
moneys taken In by the government
are to he turned over to the "German
National Railway company,” a pri
vate corporation under allied cun
teol, which, though still to he
founded, will become the biggest sin
ale railroad company in the world.
The normal title to the railways re
mains in the control of the govern
ment but the oomimny will have con
trol of operation and the right tn
divide the. profits, according to the
agreement readied by represents |
tives of the reparations commission ,

Large State Wheat Crop
Farmer* of Nebraska and closely
neighboring states who have shipped
grain and livestock In the Omaha
market* have been benefited to the
extent of $157,205 during the first
1<I days of July by Increasing price*
paid for farm product*.
A* a result of advancing hog price*,
farmers have received $44,000 more
for hog* shipped to Omaha than they
would have received had the price' not
risen, according to estimate* of A.
F. Stryker, secretary of the Omaha
Livestock exchange.
Advancing sheep prices have netted
file farmer* who have shipped sheep
to the Omaha market since July 1
a nice bonus of $41,473.
Wheal liain *13,160.
During the first IS days of this
month farmers who consigned wheat
to the Omaha Grain exchange received
$47,160 more than they would have
had the price of wheat not advanced,
and $24,570 mote for their corn, ac
cording In the estimates <>f K. I'. Man
Chester, secretary of the exchange.
These amounts added to the farm
ers' incomes as a result of the recent ^
price advance on farm products, total
$157,205, making an average increase ;
of about $»,73U daily to the farmer.
Moreitver. it must be remembered
that the wheat crop Is just beginning ,
to move, and that most of the in
crease In hog prices has occurred
in the last few days.
Omaha jobbers and retailers an- (
nounced last week that, beginning
July 1, business had Improved In a
most encouraging manner. They at
tribute tills Improvement to a large i
extent to increases In prices for farm i
products. They also report that col- ;
lections have been better recently,
and are thoroughly optimistic over
the outlook.
Wheat Crop I.arge.
This same feeling is reflected In a
statement issued Saturday from the
offiie of Clarke G. Powell, commie
[rioner of the Omaha Chamber of
Commerce, as follows
“Omaha and Nebraska *re on a
firm foundation for recovery already
noted, government statistic* show
that the wheat crop of the chior
win t pi tin mg countries of tbs
world I* 13 per cent below lart vars
crop. Nebraska's ub"at crop on the
other hand will be iS.OOO.OOo bushels
or 40 tier cent greater than last year.
With prices for farm products rising
we can look for better business for
everybody."
