PARIS, Juno 3. American eco
nomlcs experts, conferring with
President Wilson today, advocated
giving Germany mandatories over
her former east African colonies to
assist her In meet her financial
obligations. Prenfler Lloyd George
of Great llrltain Is expected to make
a formal statement tomorrow regard
ing tho proposed modifications In tho
treaty.
Tho matter was opened following
tho proposnl hy Lloyd Georgo that
upper Silesia bo returned to Germany
for economic reasons. American
erperls, however, suggested that
Poland retain upper Silesia, and that
tho Germans he given supervision
over their recent cast African pos
sessions. Krora authoritative sources today
It was learned that President Wil
son, Lloyd George and Premier
Cloinencenu of France havo agreed
on tho ndvlsabillly of modifying the
proposed treaty. Tho question Is
now said to center about tho degree
of modification which will hu neces

GREA T ACTIVITY FORESEEN

In view of the preeminence of
lumber manufacture from a local
industrial standpoint, forecasts ot

tho reconstruction era, which are

the northwest In the business digest
issued by the United States National
bank of Portland for the summer of

WASHINGTON, D. C. June
3. Thut certain interests In
New York are In possession of
the full text of the treaty with
Germany was the charge made
from the floor of the upper
house today by Senator Borah.
"These Interests are dealing
with It, and discussing it, while
the people of tho United States
have never been Riven the full
text." he declared.
Senator Lodge stated that he
- had had a copy of the treaty in
his hands 'yesterday.

Olio of the smallest votes ever
cast here at n stale election was be
ing recorded today, for at 2 o'clock
total for the five preclncls in the
city showed that just 106 ballots
had been used, fewer than had been
cast at the same hour at tho special
city election, May 27. No reports
had been received from precincts
throughout tho county to Indicate
tho strength of the rural vote. Within
the cily the volo by precincts was as
follows: No. 1, 27; No. 2, 15; No.
3. 29; No. 4. 20; No. 5, 15.
Among the stnto measures referred
to the people, tho reconstruction
bond bill was tho o'nly one which
was considered to bo at all in doubt,
but four was felt that a largo rural
voto might defeat tho $125,000 coun
ty road bond issue, becauso of oppo
sition which was created when tho
original plans, which contemplated
tho uso ot a pnrt ot tho monoy for
the Improvement of "feeder" roads,
worn altered so as to Include, only
Iho trunk highways and main market
roads.
So light was tho turnout in ono

dence district, with tho result thnt
tho voto , was Increased mulorlally.
in half a century is the prediction
made by George S. Long, manager of
the Weyerhaeuser Timber company.
"While there may be more or less
of the unknown and confusion about
business affairs until the war tur
moil is settled, I believe that the
activities of the world in the next
10 or 15 years are going to surpass
in a business way and in a develop
ment way any similar period within
the memory of man," Mr. Long pre
dicts. In lTie8ame article is the follow
Ing statement from one of the larg
est retailers having yards In the in
terior: "The demand for building
material for farm and city Improve
ments is in a very healthy condition.
We are not only anticipating a con
siderable Improvement In the volume
of our trade, but are already experi
encing such a condition."
In the production end of the lum
ber industry the optimistic atti'ude
is Just as pronounced, and the man
ager of one of the largest ir .Is in
the state already notes an upv.urd
trend. "The lumber business In the
northwest is showing some improve
ment," he declares. "This is coming
as the result of a certain amount of
foreign business, coupled with fairly
heavy buying by the railway admin
istration, and normul, or better than
normal, demand from the middle
west all coming at a time when the
southern pine competitors of the west
coast are overloaded with orders and
have depleted stocks.
"Fir manufacturers are beginning
to realize that they can no longer
sell their product for cost, and less.
Prices, having started upward, will
probably go as high as they should
to yield fair compensation to the
producers. Labor is beginning to be
scarce, and the problem the millmen
have to face, beginning immediately,
is not that of taking care of the un
employed, but of finding sufficient
labor to operate the camps and
mills." "

PARIS, June 3. Before the allies

the Germans may be asked to go on
record as to whether or not they In
tend to sign such a treaty. It wan

will be made. If the basic princiDles

with the experts of the American
commission regarding the proposed
modification of the economic section
of the German treaty. The suggest
ed changes were outlined authorita
tively, to the United Press as follows:
Fixing a definite sum which Ger
many will have to pay in reparation
at from J25, 000. 000. 000 to $30,
000,000,000; clarifying the clause
regarding the powers of the repara

crees governing the conduct ot Ger
man lnternatlonaTaffalrs; allowing
four instead of two years for the
payment ot the first $5,000,000,000
'.of the amount due for reparations;
making provisions for enabling Ger
many to acquire merchant shipping
by lease, charter or otherwise.
ENGLISH CELEBRATE
DERBY DAY AGAIN
Great British Sporting- Event Comes
Today fur First Time Since
War Waa Declared.
(By United Pm to Th Bend Bulletin.)
EPSOM DOWNS, June 4. After
four years ot war-abstinence and un
satisfying substitutes, the historic
Derby, the "blue ribbon" of the Eng- .
lish turf, was run off today and
sporting Britain turned out in record
breaking crowds to participate in
what is more ot a national institu
tion than a mere herse race meeting.
The pre-war spirit of carnival re
asserted Itself, and from an early
hour this, morning all roads led to
Epsom, the little Surrey town about
14 miles out of London. Every thor
oughfare and byway leading from
London, Brighton and nearby cen
ters bore the old-time "Derby day"
aspect, and the $10,000 automobiles
of the wealthy sporting and society
leaders jostled the "coster's" donkoy
barrow and brakeloads of humbler
enthusiasts. Special trains emptied
mnsses of sporting humanity, and
holiday makers, who hardly knew a
horso from a donkey, at the three
stutions near the track and by mid
day the streets of Epsom were almost
Impassable for the vast thron.gs, all
making for the famous "Downs."
King George arrived Just before
the first race and the royal standard
was hoisted on a racetrack for the
first time in four years, amid tre
mendous enthusiasm.
