Provisions Are e In Program Whereby Gennans Would Be Abli Buy Supplies, First By Permitting Them To Emf In Export Trade, And Second, By Allowing ThE To Establish Neutral Credits. By Fred S. Ferguson (United Press Staff Correspondent) Paris, Mar. 8. The supreme war council, discussing the problem of sup plying food to the enemy countries to day, was expected, to reach an agree ment by Monday. It was believed thai certain concessions would be made to relieve the situation resulting from the disagreement between the German and allied economic commissions at Spa. The conferees already liavo approv ed for feeding the people of dismem bered Austria, whereby tho blockade will be lifted. This prlnciplo may be extended to Germany, it wan under stood, through adoption of a resolution directing the supreme economic coun cil to carry out tho provision of re victualling that country contained in the armistice. Program Under. ConsidTratlon- From authoiilutivc sources, it was learned the program now being discus sed under which the Germans will be able to buy food, provides: First, for permission for the Ger mans to engage iij export hade, par ticularly with such commodities as coal and' potash, of which they have a plen tiful supply. The money thus obtained will be applied on food payments. Second, for establishment of neutral credits by Germany. Third, for use of gold nssotB. if nec- iwury The latter method would bo permitt ed only as a last resort if money raised through other means proved insuffi cient. It' is estimated that Germany lias $500,000,000 in wold. The French ere understood to have tentatively agreed to such a plan, buT have insist ed that first the financing of Germany should be undertaken by an American loan, taking long term notes in payment for food. This, the Americans refused to consider. WOWAN PRESIDES IN HOUSE, Sacramento, Cal.j- March 8.

PUTflMOYERlit At Recent Meeting Decided That 130 Miles Is Neces sary To Cover County. The Bevefal committing appointed to handle the market rouds proposition for Marion county are putting in u.er time getting affairs in shape in order to liave everything set aqnarely beforo tho pco plo at the coming special election, June 3rd. Both tho road location committee and the parent committee Ifl suujtct to tho call of their chairman. One of the reasons the market rofrds committco recommended tho . bonding plan instead of a direct tax levy, was because under tho bonding - plan, the roads to be improved would have to be definitely specified in the measure sub mitted to the people. It was thought that those communities in tho outlying districts would demand that tho road to bo improved be designated before they would support any measure for raising funds for road improvement. , ... ... 'Under the direct tax levy proposition it could not bo legally designated as to tho location of the roads. At a recent meeting of tho road lo cation committees, it ws decided that 100 miles of roads would not cover tho county, as this first move for good roads, or first unit, will require the building of 130 miles. This will mean that the plan of road building will be extended to six years instead of five. 11 Per Ce.'.t to Be Raised. According to tho estimates of the county court and the road committee, only 11 per cent of the paving cost will have to be raised by the salo of bonds. The other 89 per cent, of funds will come from direct taxation without auv special levy, through channels already legalized. A considerable sum of monov will be received bv the county from tho! automobile tax of the state. Ono fourth of the total auto tax is to be retunud to each county.. Tho committee in charge of road loca tion will meet when called by it3 chair man, Hurley L. Mooro of Woodburn, but this will hardly be until after the next meeting of tho parent committee. In the1 meantime tho executive committee is preparing the measure to be submitted and also preparing tho form of the pe tition to get tho measure on tho ballot.

Washington, Mar. 8. Germany's re fusal to turn over her merchant ships for shipment home of American troops has aroused the widest speculation and comment among officials and diplomats here. In tho absence of details' of her ac tion at Spa, officials hero know only that Germany has broken the contract her officials signed with- Chairman Hurley of tho United States shipping board, and other alliod representatives last January to turn over her merchant men. Possible motives for Germany's ac tion are believed to be: lirst, her internal condition partic ularly as regards food may bo such that her present government is afraid to turn over the vessels for fear of giving tho Spartncan group a cry of protest: Second, the strong sailors councils nt Germanv's ports may have served no tice on their government that the ships could- net leave unless thoy were man no dby German sailors (not provided in the contract Hurley offered and had accepted), or, . May Bo Using Trickery. Germany may be resorting to her old trickery and seeing discontent growing in England at. the delnv in shipping troops home, has thrown a hitch into the program of turning thousands of tons of shipping over to Great Britain as well as tho United States for troop transport, thus aggra vnting tho unrest In all events, it is held certain hero thnt her action is timed to end, if pos sible, tho nllied delay in sending food stuffB into Germany.
