tracts and bills. It is admitted that
Nledermeyer provided 9)23,968 which
Pehl disbursed for labor and small
Items. The reply further alleges that
Fehl held no realty dealer license, as
required by state law, and that dur
ing the construction of the Holly he
was engaged in other "building enter
prises, and he editing of a weekly
paper."
Advised Building
It is set forth that from 1919 to
1927, Pehl "constantly solicited, Im
plored and requested" Nledermeyer
to build a theater building at Sixth
and Holly streets and In 1927 Nleder
meyer permitted Fehl to start ex
cavating and that when a lease was
signed with Walter Leverette, the ex
cavation was finished. Nledermeyer,
In all these negotiations, assumed the
financial and other responsibilities.
The reply admits Fehl paid 9100
earnest money on the lot to the
Talisman lodge of Knights of Pythias
of which W. R. Qaylord was chancel
lor, and that Nledermeyer afterwards
paid $9,650 for the land In two In
stallments and that the 9100 paid by
Fehl was deducted from the promis
sory note. , "
. Insisted On Payment
The reply avera that Nledermeyer
Insisted,- on Fehl accepting payment
for services, when. Fehl claimed that
"the enhancement of property values
on Sixth street'' would be his re
compense." The sura of 92300 was
applied to the note on these grounds,
with the consent of Fehl. .
It is set forth further, that claims
of Fehl that he- was instrumental In
securing the Sixth street lighting
system, or a tent show to hold forth
on the site, are not supported by
Information at hand.
It Is also recited that Fehl In
terested Nledermeyer in the construc
tion of the Ivy Street Market and dis
missal is asked on the grounds of
"Insufficiency of cause.
Fehl In his answer and counter
claim alleged he had due 97.150 as a
fee for construction of the Holly
theater, 910,000 for various promo
tional efforts, and 95000 as a half
Interest In the lot upon w.hlch the

piles that the post-war reparations
chapter is relegated to history.
WASHINGTON, July 8. (AP)
Announcement of a complete Franco-
Qerman agreement at Lausanne on
reparations and war debts was re
ceived today at the state depart
ment with interest, but Secretary
Stimson was silent on the two ques
tions, -which are held " here to be
separate and distinct.
The fixing of Germany's final
reparations paymen t at ipprqxl
mately 9750,000.000 reduces Its obli
gations to less than one-tenth of
the total fixed under the Young plan
three years ago.
New Appeals to C. S. Loom.
The gentlemen's agreement Unking
the reparations with Europe's war
debts was looked upeon In some cir
cles at patently opening the way
for new appeals to the United States
for a scaling down, if not actual
cancellation of what Is owed this
nation.
When the Europeans submit their
agreements Individually to thla gov
ernment the United States will con
sider them. Until then Secretary
Stimson has nothing to say about
war debts.
The funded indebtedness of 15
European nations to the United
States exceeds 911.000,000.000. About
90 per cent Is due from Great Brit
ain. France and Italy.
Should Europe propose that debts
to this country be scaled down in
khe same proportion as German repa
rations are cut unaer mo new lmu-
