BERLIN", June 26. (Special by
wireless.) And so the economic con
sequences of the peace have begun.
France demanded her reparations
In gold, and the very first payment
has set the financial world by the
ears, t rance rejected what we could
give from our own store. She de
manded that which we did not have,
gold.
To meet her demands It became nec
essary for Germany to buy American
dollars, the only international money
standard today, and having the equal
value of gold throughout the world.
The demand for dollars sent them
to a higher premium.
Allied moneys dropped in conse
cuence. and thus we have the situa
tion that what was gained from Germany-
was lost in the purchasing
power of the franc. England, re
ceiving but little of the money, suf
fered in the monetary decline.
Warning Are Recalled.
And yet. what else could be ex
pected? The allied supreme counci
was warned time and time again that
the demands for huge reparations
sums would upset the economic
world. Under the pressure of France
the council went . ahead with its
stnseless demands, and now it be
gins to look as if the problem would
rave to be reopened and some new
xnethod of payments devised.
I endeavored to point out at the
time the reparations question was
under discussion in London that It
was not merely a matter of bargain
between two or three countries.
laid very plainly that it was the
j-reatest problem the clvllUed world
cad ever faced.
Labor Offer la Cited.
We offerd France the manual
labor of thousands of German work-
I'.en to rebuild northern France.
Here was something tangible, some
thing creative. But France refused
fc'he said it might result in cole niza
tion and that the Inhabitants of the
regions devastated by the war might
r.ot like the presence of so many of
their late enemy.
We offered machines and technical
equipment and implements, but we
were told this was impossible.
"Le Boche payera!"
(The German must pay!)
Economic CrlMla la Noted.
Well, we pay and the first ronse
quence is an economic crisis In
France. The surrender of our ships
in England brought down the price
if tonnage everywhere, until rhips,
priceless three years ago, are being
allowed to rust in many a "bone
vard." Yet we still build ships to be
surrendered to the allies, while the
allied shipyards are at a standstill.
We offer coal to France; and at a
figure that England cannot meet
rven if her mines were in operation.
- i. we cont'rue to offer this coal a,
a price below the cost of production
In England, what becomes of John
Bull's export trade In the future?
Germany could continue t-j pay
France in American dollars and per
laps the world would not be so up
set, if America would buy a sufficient
quantity of German goods. But
America will not buy. She :s the
enly country capable of paying for
merchandise in standard gold money.
She could help Germany's paying
capacity, but the American congress
is working with a will to shut out
Kll foreign-made goods by tne erec
t'on of a higher protective tariff wall.
German Imports Opposed
The allied countries are continuing
to oppose the importation of large i
quantities of German dye stuffs and
manufactured goods, because they
tay they do not want to imperil their
uwn Industries.
The solution, then, has not been as
simple as Lloyd George and M.
Rriand seemed .o think. My predic
tion that no mechanical' means could
l e conjectured to make It so has been
smnly fulfilled.
Meanwhile, what are the prospects
ci a Franco-German approachment?
TerhaDS a wave of sanity is sweep
lr.g over Europe after all. Perhaps
it will take something of an economic
catastrophe in France before it can
be realized. Perhaps M. Loucheur,
who had much to do with the pre
paration of the treaty, realised what
the economic consequences o' Ger
many being compelled to pay in gold
would be, when he and Herr'Rath
enau held their recent conference at
Weisbaden.
. In any event, the responsible offl
tials of the two governments are
getting close together. I have won
dered if the Wirth government might
-succeed in allaying some of the fears
and suspicions of France.

That the body of A. H. Downing
may not be found In the Willamette
river, as a note found in the pocket of
a coat picked up on the Albany steel
bridge last night would indicate, has
been developed from an investigation.
Chief of Police Catlin said that while
the matter is yet a mystery, the po
lice have found evidence that may
clear up the situation by tomorrow.
It will take a little time, he says, to
run down clews.
John Donovan, a transient, picked
up a coat on the Albany Prldge at
5:15 last night. From a pocket pro
truded a piece of paper apparently
placed to attract attention. On this
paper was a note in which the writer
bade good-bye to the world, said he
was tired of life , and that "you will
find me in the bottom of the river."
The note was unsigned but the name
of A. H. Downing appeared at the
top of the paper. The note was dated
June 21.

evidence that Downing was seen here

DETROIT, June 26. Seized with
what Morris Hillquit described as a

overwhelmed two others which as-1
sorted the dictatorship is not now an !
issue.

California. They branded it as linked
in American minds with the red ter
ror in Russia, and declared it was
useless to fix a policy which never
wculd be called into play unless, in
some distant future, a socialist revo
lution occurs.
Terror Declared Needed.
King declared "the terror is In
separable from dictatorship of the
proletariat. You have got to have
the terror to put it over."
J. Louis Engdahl and William F.
Krirse. left wing communists from
Chicago, offered two resolutions, as
serting the rights of the working
classes to set up a dictatorship to
insure the success of a socialist revo
lution and the duty "not to permit
anything to stand in the way of their
being the ruling class." One resolu
tion received only four votes and the
second eight.
Hillquit offered a substitute which
defined the dictatorship as the "po
litical rule of the working class in
the period of transition from the
capitalist system to the socialist
ordei1."
Hillquit Plan Defeated.
The Hillquit plan was defeated. IS

J. Richman of Washington said the
spectacle of "an insignificant bunch
of 10.000 socialists talking about the
dictatorship of the proletariat is
silly," and offered a counter resolu
tion which declared: "We do not con
sider the question of sufficient im
portance at this time to go on rec
ord for or against it."
His was the only vote cast for the
plan.
King offered a motion declaring
"the movement in the United States
is not sufficiently advanced at this
time to make a decision." He got
two votes.
Communlata Are Attacked.
The fight was enlivened when
Berger attacked the communists
within the party.
The communists issued circulars in
Milwaukee last April advising the
workers not to vote because the revo
lution was coming May 1." he said.
"And on May 1 it rained. so tney
postponed their revolution to May 6,
and on May .6 a policeman arrested
two of them for throwing handbills
on the street in violation of a city
ordinance, and the revolution never
has taken place.
Engdahl and Kruse. tne exponents
of communism, do not belong to the
proletariat. They are in the 'sal
ariat.' living off the money received
from t-he socialist" party."
"As for the communists. Engdani
said in his reply, we win tignt ior
our rights; we will fight for worklng
nla.o rule: we will fight for the free
dom of our prisoners, but we will I
not fight for them as 100 per cent
Americans. We will fight for them
only under the red flag of Interna
tional socialism.

LOGANBERRIES 90 CENTS
Market at Salem So Low Growers
May Not Market Crops.
SALEM. Or., June 26. (Special.)
The loganberry market opened here
Saturday at 90 cents a crate of 24
boxes. Indications were that berries
of this variety would touch even a
lower figure when the peak of the
harvest is reached some time this
week.
These berries were the first pick
and were handled by the stores. Local
canneries will begin receiving the
berries tomorrow, practically all of
which will be canned and shipped to
the eastern markets.
Because of the low prices and the
lack of pickers some growers will not
attempt to harvest 'their crops.
