WORLD, SAVE U. S., BROKEN
"In Punishing German; Entente
Forgot to Take Cognizance of
Economic Conditions."
BERLIN. March 6. German .diplo
macy must "take up the struggle at
that point where President Wilson
permitted it to skip away from him."
said Count von Bcrnstorf f. former
German . ambassador at Washington,
at a mass meeting of university stu
dents in a discussion of the nation's
foreign policies.
Von Bernstorff declared that the
president had merely touched upon
the problem of negotiating a Just
peace, but failed to solve it. after
being first to assert that the war was
not to end in the creation of a new
balance of power.
"Kor us the question is: Docs the
Versailles peace represent the cruel
orgy of a by-gone era," he continued,
"or are we to experience new im
perialistic chaos, whether the new
diplomacy asserts itself or old method
prevail?"
rld. Sm V. S., Bankrupt.
Count von Bernstorff said he ha
warned against any attempt to
achieve a revision of the treat
through negotiations with individua
entente powers.
"In punishing Germany," he said
"the entente forget to take cogniz
ance of the economic conditions of
the world at large. The vanquished
are unable to pay the war costs
the victors; the whole world, with
the exception of the United States, is
bankrupt."
In connection with her declaration
Germany must convince tse entente
that she is unable to meet the treaty's
conditions unless given raw products
and ample credits which will enable
her to work off the indemnity, he
declared.
Dignified Course Vrsed.
Discussing the League of .Nations,
Von Bernstorff said that Germany
should not beg to be received Into it,
which would be undignified, but must
indicate through her diplomacy and
her attitude that she is willing to
join.
"An-;Hcan interest is now centering
in trie presidential election, he said
"rather than in European affairs.
which is accounted for in the disap
pointment the war occasioned in the
United States."
He further asserted that any at
tempt on the part of Germany to
approve the present American atti
tude toward the league would merely
fortify the entente against Germany,

I'ortland Need Have no Fear of
Shortage, Says Commissioner
Mann After Inspection.
Cheer up, injured and aggrieved
ones, victims of the "dry" propa
ganda, there will be plenty to drink
in Portland this summer.
Not the beverages once shoved
across the mahogany by a man in a
white apon, but pure, sparkling Bull
Run water plenty of it.
The winter just ended was so short
of rain that many feared for the
city's summer water supply. These
fears, it appears, are groundless.
Commissioner Mann, official head of
the water department, spent yester
day afternoon inspecting conditions
in the national forest reserve above
the headworks, some 40 miles from
I'ortland.
"Notwithstanding the unusual win
ter." said Commissioner Mann, "I
found conditions in the Bull Run lake
region about normal, and all that we
could wish for at this time. While
the amount of snow in the moun
tains is less than usual In March, the
constant melting has raised Bull Run
lake perceptibly. As a result of our
recent work at the lake we are now
able to turn its waters directly into
the pipe-line supply, if need be. This
alone would give us sufficient water
for three months, should other sources
fail.
"Portland has many problems to
meet," the commissioner eaid, "but
the question of water supply this
summer is not one of them."

he is said to have made on several
occasions.
Local authorities are seeking in

Tuesday morning he seemed un
usually preoccupied. Just before noon
he turned over all his construction
work to J. Defoe, his head carpenter,
and left, supposedly on his way to
dinner. He has not been seen since.

farmer, anywhere that Cletrac farming is
profitable farming.
! The Cletrac is the right size and type for
almost any farm, the one tractor adapted
to all conditions. It has proved its ability
to stand up to its work. And now that the
public has recognized its worth, it is out in

J The new 8-inch track one-third wider
