REPARATIONS BODY ACTS

PAYMBIT
Drrlln Serves X at Ice Installment
of 2 0 Billion Demanded for
May 1, Has Been Met.
PARIS. March 23. (By the Asso
ciated I'ress.) The reparations com
mission has considered the German
statement regarding: non-payment of
the 1.000,000.000 gold marks today,
the dale fixed by the allies for pay
ment, and has forwarded a communi
cation to the German government,
according to official announcement.
It was maintained in the German
rote that tho 20,000,000,000 marks
which the ppace treaty provided
should be handed over by May 1 is
more than paid.
The note asked that a Joint commis
sion of experts fix the value of the
'icrman deliveries on reparations ac
count, but it declared that in any
event it would be Impossible for Ger
many to pay 12,000,000,000 marks by
.May 1.
Would Krgrotlute Loan.
The note concluded as follows:
"If. Hfter the experts have con
ferred, it is established that there is
a deficit In the payments by Germany,
.--he is ready to begin negotiations
with the reparations commission re
garding the floating of a loan
abroad."
The Germans' failure to pay is
Ceemed a violation of the treaty of
Versailles which the commission will
report to the allied governments. - The
allies will then determine what meas
ures shall be taken.
Arftmuentn Already Heard.
It was commented here that the
German experts already have been
heard by the commission, which lis
tened to the'r arguments before fix
ing the valuation of the German de
liveries credited as payments against
the 20.000.000.000 marks. This valua
tion, therefore was considered final
since the treaty gives the commission
sole jurisdiction in the matter.
The German reply did not answer
directly the commission's demand for
a first payment of 1,000.000,000 marks
today. (This point, however, is cov
ered on the face of things by Ger
many's contention of over-payment of
the entire amount due by May 1).
Germany Can Meet Puyment.
There was nothing said in the note,
nevertheless, to show that it would
be impossible for Germany to pay this
1.000.000,000 marks which the -epara-tions
commission knows that Germanj
has available in gold as well as in
foreign securities, it is stated.
COUNTY FINANCES SOUND
Washington Inspectors Give Clean
Bill to Lewis.
OLTiUPIA. Wash., March 23. (Spe
cial.) The financial condition of
Lewis county Is on a sound basis, the
records have been kept in first-class
condition, the estimates of expendi
tures in the various county depart
ments have been generally adhered
to. although the prosecuting attor
ney's office and the superior court
exceeded their estimates because of
the financial burden caused by the
I. W. W. murder trial last year, ac
cording to the reports received by
the state bureau of inspection today.
The state examiner, in his reports
to the bureau, says assets for Lewis
county are $159,563.15, the liabilities
$417,856.82 and the net liabilities
$258,293.67. There is $300,000 out
standing in county bonds and $95,000
in road bonds.
"Most men expect to 'have some
thing ' someday and most of them
are disappointed. You can't just
expect' you've got to pedal."
The sure way to have money or
property later on is to begin sav
ing NOW and keep at it.

DESCHUTES PROJECT BOARD
TO BE APPOINTED SOOX.
Colonel Cavanaugh of Portland
Probably Will Be One of Xew
Irrigation Commission.
THE OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington. D. C, March 23. Direc
tor Davis of the reclamation service
is expected to name ths commission
within a few days which is to make
an examination of the Deschutes ir
rigation project in Oregon, for which
congress h'as made an initial appro
priation of $400,000. The probable
members of the commission are: Colo
nel Cavanough of the board of army
engineers, to represent the federal
power commission; F. F. Henshaw of
the, United States geological survey,
who collaborated with ex-State En
gineer Lewis in the preparation of
the original Deschutes report in 1914;
D. C. Henny, well-known engineer of
Portland, and F. W. Hanna, an engi
neer of the reclamation service. Colo
nel Cavanaugh is now at Portland.
Several important questions will be
considered and settled by this com
mission before the work can pro
ceed. Representative Sinnott was ad
vised today of Director Davis' inten
tion to name the commission.
Senator McNary appeared before
the house ways and means committee
today and urged that hops be included
in the emergency tariff bill. He was
told that the present plan is to pass
the bill exaetly as passed in the last
congress and vetoed by President
Wilson. ,
The best promise he received was
that the question would be given con
sideration in framing the new tariff
bill. The senator presented evidence
to show that the hops now being im
ported into this country are suffi
cient to supply the entire demand,
thus- crowding the domestic crop out
of its own market.
Mrs. W. C. Hawley, wife of the Ore
gon representative, is at Garfield
hospital suffering from a severe if
not serious abscess in the ear. It was
said today that a mastoid operation
might be necessary.
G. A. Marquam of Fairbanks,
Alaska, but formerly a resident of
Portland, whose father was an Oregon
pioneer of 1851, Is here seeking ap
pointment as federal judge at Fairbanks.

HONOLULU, T. H., March 14. (Spe
cial.) Shipments of island sugar,
pineapples and other products from
the customs district of Hawaii to
mainland United States have trebled
in the last ten years, according to
statistics compiled by the special
deputy collector of customs of this
port. Shipments to the mainland dur
ing the last fiscal year from July 1,
1919. to June 30, 1920, reached a total
value of $101,194,733, the report
shows, while the estimated value for
1921 is $173,000,000.
In 1915 the total was $61,990,847,
while in 1910 it was $46,000,000. Im
ports from mainland United States
to Hawaii tell an equally interesting
story. Last year's total for the fiscal

mate for this year, which ends in
June, is $75,000,000. Exports from

Sure Way to Get
Rid of Dandruff
There Is one sure way that never
falls to remove dandruff completely,
and that Is to dissolve it. This de
stroys it entirely. To do this, Just get
about four ounces of plain, ordinary
liquid arvon; apply It at night when
retiring; use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
By morning most, if not all. of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will complete
ly dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of It, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all Itching
and digging of the scalp will stop In
stantly and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and eoft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is inexpensive, and four
ounces is all you will need. This sim
ple remedy has never been known to
