There Is reason to believe that i the : Washington government not I only sees ; no further opportuuity I at this time to suggest a -way to Franco-British reconciliation, but i lacks also any intimation. that its j officers will be . sought - from i across the Atlantic at least in ad 1 Tance of an , actual test; of 'J. the 1 French theories on reparations. j v Attitude Sympatlietlc ? I Once the French plan has been, tried and. its results demonstrated the situation with respect to Am i erican aid, may change.- But there is no doubt that 'American official opinion ; is gravely ; eon eerned lest political chaos and? a' complete . economic ' breakdown; come in Germany - . before that point has been reached. I? The official attitude in Wash ington still is that of a sympa thetic ' spectator friendly - to all parties to' the crisis and with American-good offices and economic strength available at any time to allied leaders, f: . - ' '- J But wiile official activities axe thus hampered by , considerations or the most delicate nature, Am erican business working along its own line of approach, apparently is preparing for new attempts to substitute business diplomacy tor. inter-governmental exchanges in working 'out a new proposal, 'a( reparations. Officials of the Chamber of Commerce of - the United States,, it was7 learned to day, were' considering: renewing their activities to that end, halted temporarily while the statesmen debated and agreed to disagree In Paris. - r 1 7 Business Men Meet t .' ; The foreign atlairs committee of the chamber will meet here January 12 at the call of.

L The fruit buds have responded to this gentle wooing, and ; are 'up to 1 a point that a sharp, severe freeze might do vast damage. T; ": ? There is no indication of such a, freeze, u There, is little-in the past history of the valley to In- icate its probability. 4 The .big freeze three years ago came a nionth earlier in , f the , ' winter. There was little cold weather after that time, though the . dam age was done early in. December and the later' little ; frosts : didn't matter.' There I is nothing that man can do to affect what the winter itself may bring, accord ing to capable i fruit experts of the Oregon Growers : who have been considering the situation. It is too : early to estimate anything for T the coming year," said one of these fruit author ities, "The only thing - that can be said I is that . up to the pres ent not the slightest damage has : been i done. 1. Of course I a 'hard freeze would be disastrous. But as there's j nothing that any one could have ' done to prevent the early - development of the buds,? just; so there's : nothing to be done to keep off the freeze The fruit men t do their part during ; the summer;., it's absolutely up ! to the weather. man, during the win-i ttr, until . time r for us to begin to plow and to pick bugs." j Mayor's Suit Against ; j Ku Kfux is Dropped COFFEYVILrLE, fKas.,' Jan. &.

(Special to The Statesman) Seven victories j and one defeat la the record made in the first eight basketball games played vby the Aggies on their barnstorming trip, according to meagre reports re iceived from Coach R.
