Germany, Dec. 28 The eforts of Germany during 1921 to fulfill her peace obligations have failed, and it is idle to think that any political or economic efforts will now succeed unless these conditions are modified, declared the annual report of 'judgment or do not desire fulfillment, but. the destruction of Germany, which, in time, would react on France, , England and America." The report asserts a way out of the dilemma could be found by a very simple means, as follows: revision of the treaty of Versailles and. of the London agreement to a reasonable basis, making it possible for Germany to secure foreign credits: a conferlence ot issuing bank:: of interested nations for the regulation of German exchange, and the restitutions of the German colonies, or. at least, a German mandate over these colonies. Criticises Policy. The report expresses slight faith in the sppedy return of world economic i normality and criticises the American towara German shipping in particular. "The outlook for American merj chant shipping is unfavorable,' conMimies the report. "Only 400 of the 1,464 shipping hoard steamers are being employed. German ships in American ports are still in an extraordinary position despite the resumption of friendly relations, which could be justified only if American ships in German ports were compelled to pay considerable fees."

Proposes 4,0QQ Idle Given Watchman Jobs (By Associated Press) PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 28. A plan to use 4 000 unemployed men in the city as night watchmen, their wages to be paid by contributions of 15 cents weekly by each family in the territory they are to guard, has been suggested to the unemployment committee by Mayor Moore. The plan, it is said, has the endorsement of police department officials. Under the proposed scheme each man is to patrol four sides of a city block, performing the duties of private watchmen. They are not to be uniformed and this, the mayor said, will decrease automobile thefts, burglaries and banditory of all sorts. ADDITION TO POoTOFFICE FINDLAY, O., Dec 28.

Favor Duties By Decree CBy Associated Press) PARIS, Dec. 28. A bill providing for continuance of the war' measure adopted in 1916 giving the government power to increase customs duties by simple decree has been approved by the customs duties commitee of the chamber of deput:hs. The chairman of the committee said the favorable report was justified by the fact that several other countries were following this system. Some of them had even decreed that the duties be paid in gold, and had applied a supertax to make up the difference in exchange values. Conciliation of France's commercial agreement with Spain had been provoked by similar measures, he said. , WANTS TO RETAIN PLACE fBv Associate!. Press) WASHINGTON', Dec. 28. Richard V.
