GERMANY MAY i GAIK ON DEBT i PACT APPROVAL Demands for Rhineland Evacuation, Saare Valley Settlement Planned. I* BV A RfcDERK K Kill Lnitrd PrfM Staff f orrcvpondrnt I r BERLIN, June 11.—Interest of Chancellories throughout Europe has been aroused by Dr Gustav Strcsemann s recent statement before the reichstag foreign committee that Germany will demand immediate evacuation of the Rhineland and a complete settlement of the Saare valley problem before accepting the Young reparations plan. Germany will welcome nonmilitary •upervision over the districts by the League of Nations, according to well Informed persons. Something of this srt probably will be necessary, Jn view of the insistence by France and Belgium of complete military supervision and the insistence of Germany for no military supervision at. all. The Saar vallev problem will be more difficult of the two to solve. According to the 'Treaty of Ver#tailles. the fate of the Saare district Is to be decided by plebiscite in IP 35. Germany now contends that a ; plebiscite would produce a 95 per cent vote in tavor of immediate re- j turn of the district to Germany. According to the treaty, the coal j fcuncs in the Saare valley are ceded to France, but if the district is re- j turned to Germany, Germany re- I tains the right to repurchase them. The Germans now claim that the Toung plan includes in the annuities payments the money for the return of the Saare mines to Ger- j many, since the Dawes plan referred to "inclusive payments," which Ger- j jnany interprets as settling all the financial obligations arising from the war. The French, of course, will oppose these German demands so that a compromise as to price probably will .< have to follow. According to the United States geographical survey the value of s those mines is approximately $235.- j 000.000.

Indications of sharp but futile opposition in congrrss to American acceptance of the Young committee’s reparations plan appeared today as individual senators examined the document. The administration is prepared to tout its full strength behind the young plan. Whether formal congressional action will be required to approve comparatively small reductions to be made in American reparations receipts has not been determined. Preliminary estimates from the treasury reaching senators today indicated the American reduction would amount to between 545.000.000 and SS?iWO.OOO to be lopped off the slo6.oCii.npp arrears charged against Germany for upkeep of the American e my of eccupation.

The sums due the United States apparently were considered less important than the possibility that the report is another move in a long sustained international propaganda for cancellation of debts owed the United States.

RAIL ELEVATION GOES TO COURT Suit Seeks to Stop Closing of Oriental Street. Another delay in the track elevation program loomed today, after three Oriental street property owners filed an injunction suit in superior court one Monday. The complaint seeks to stop the city and the Pennsylvania railroad from closing Oriental street. Under an amended order of the works board the street is to be closed from Southeastern avenue to East Washington street. The original order dated Feb. 9. 1925, according to the complaint, provided that the street remain open and a subway be built. The plaintiffs are: William H. Foley, 32 South Oriental street; Marion A. Neff. 13 North Arsenal avenue, and Richard H. Neff, 5923 Park avenue. The city administration many months ago decided to close Oriental street after Henry Ford had threatened to move the Ford assembly plant near the street and the tracks from the city. If the street is left open Ford cannot construct a switch from the elevation down to his plant across Oriental | street. w GIRL IS BEST ORATOR In the finals of the stewardship oratorical contest of the Marion County Baptist Young People's Union Monday night at the Tuxedo Park church.

'BRITAIN'S O.X. ON MAG DONALD TRIP TO 0, S, Public Pleased by Proposal of Premier in Move of Friendship. BY WEBB MILLER Inited Press Staff Correspondent LONDON, June 11.—Approval of Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald's proposal to make a personal visit to the United States and confer with President Hoover on Anglo-Ameri-can relations appeared practically unanimous in Great Britain today. Newspapers andthe public saw such a visit as the only sure way of cementing the greatly desired friendship between the two countries, and the Daily Herald, a laborite organ, i went so far as to say it was ’’the j most momentous step in history j so British statesmanship." Despite the lack of precedence for j the prime minister’s foreign visit, there was a general feeling of pleas- , ure that MacDonald should have opened his labor administration in j such a way. Some sections of the press expected MacDonald’s proposal to receive further strengthening when Charles j G. Dawes arrives here this week to j be the new American ambassador at ; London.

They believed Dawes bore a personal invitation from President Hoover to MacDonald to go to Washington for a conference. The Daily News said the initiative for the meeting was from President Hoover and Mackenzie King, prime minister of Canada. HONOR MEDIC STUDENT Merle E. Whitlock Wins Medal for Highest Scholarship.

GAINS OF CHAIN STORES CITED IN STATE PLEA Threaten Extinction of Small Businesses If Unchecked, Says Official. Extinction of the individual small store owner within a few years, if the chain store movement continues at its present rate, was forecast by Joseph Hutchenson, assistant attor-ney-general. today in arguments before Federal Judge Robert C. Baltj zell in the chain store licensing law injunction suit. The suit was filed by Lafayette Jackson, owner of 225 Standard groceries. “In 1926 chai nstores did 30 per cent of the grocery business in the j siate, and they were increasing at the rate of 4 per cent a year. ’ Hutchenson said. Hutchenson held that the rich to tax occupation is an inherent right of sovereignty and that the legislature has the right to classf.v industry so as to encourage some and discourage others. If the state thought increase of chain stores, to the point of practically annihilating individual owners, should be curbed, it has the right to pass the necessary legislation, he argued. Jackson will pay 1,800 times as much tax on his 225 groceries as will large department tsorcs having a large sales volume, H. H. Hornbrook, defense attorney pointed out. Because of a bridge connecting the new L. s. Ayres & Cos. store with the old building, the store will pay only the $3 tax for a single store, he said, while Jackson's stores, under separate roofs, are highly taxed. The hearing was expected to continue throughout the afternoon, with decision probable on the state's motion for dismissal within a week or two.
