GERMANY AND REPARATIONS.

REPLY TO M. POINCARE

FOREIGN MINISTER'S SPEECH,

te

BERLIN, April 16, Contrary to international expectation, the Foreign Minister, Dr. von Rosenberg, in his speech in the Reichstag, did not make definite proposals as regards the reparations problem. It is believed, however that Germany's ignored January, offer of thirty milliards gold marks will eventually form the basis of the solution, The Reich will not entertain plans for the formation of a Rhenish federal state or transfer its rights to international organisations. It rejected the recent Franço Belician proposed system of gradual evacuation of the Ruhr.

Just as there is a great deal of interest in reading the obituary notices of eminent people whom one has met and whom one has not met, so the news that a stout old ship is being broken up always puts one into a humour. to lean back and ruminate on her per. sonality and her doings, and on. the various occasions when she was met on the Seven Seas, and the thoughts that were engendered by those meetings, says the At the Journal of Commerce.

Replying to M. Poincare's Dunkirk speech cabled yesterday, Dr. von Rosenberg declared Germany was compelled to import British coal. He admitted that currencies were being sent abroad in order to save the people from hunger. He denied that the Schutz police was in end of last year, and has now com any way a military organisation, and wound up by expressing Ger-pleted her scrapping. She was one many's determination to hold out until France recognised Germany's rights.

BURMAH OIL STRIKE.

EXPECTED SETTLEMENT 'DEFERRED.

RANGOON, April 16.

The expected settlement of the strike on the Yenon Yaung oil- field, in which 10,000 workers are involved, demanding a large increase in wages and recognition of equality treatment for American and Burman skilled workers, has been deferred. This is owing to the alleg ed victimisation of a hundred members of the labour minion. The strikers demand the appointment of an arbitration board.

of the ships that the British India had built for them_by, Inglis in the early nineties, she and her sister, the "Danera," having been cons- tructed for their subsidiary services. She was a ship of over 5,000 tons, Which could manage her 14 knots at sea quite easily, and was a very popular ship in her time on account of her solid comfort and reliability. A considerable pro- portion of her career was spent as a transport, having been taken up on charter during the various trooping scasons in the 'nineties, and being the proud bearer of No. 3 during the South African War. During the late. war she was again employed on-a similar duty, bringing home regi-} } ments which had been on garrison duty in India, and maintaining"sup- plies generally until the latter days of the war, when she was taken over by the Ministry of Shipping under the scheme for the requisition of

"TOO MUCH BUSINESS":"

CORONET'S AMUSING

COMEDY.

"Too Much Business" is the title of the seven-ree! Vitagraph confedy which is the current attraction at the Coronet. It is a screen version of one of the "John Henry" stories by Earl Dorr Biggers which have found such fayour with readers of the Soiurday Evening Post.

The plot presents a hero who is in love with a girl who frowns upon romance. So he puts his love affair on a strictly business foundation; taking out an option on her for thirty days and proving to her that he can double his salary within that period. Fired by his boss, he opens an hotel for babies and the day nursery becomes highly po- an abusing com- pular. There plication to the plot because his. rival is determined to ruin the hero's noval venture. The comedy is brightly and interestingly interpreted and the direction is highly capable..

WHEN 2 AND 2 ARE 3.

(By M. Ejiri, A Japanese Bank Clerk in London.)

My ambition in my boyhood was to bo, a kind of the Château-du- Lion" in the Southern Ses (not fito | "Château do Chillon" iu Montreux, which I visited last summer); and to marry a beautiful merinaid in the Mediterranean who would' avrim about in the water at night when the moon was at the full,.

But, unfortunately, for me, in- stead of this I was obliged to learn "how to count figures" from my stupid school teacher, who only knew that 2 and 2 are always 4, and nover told ive that the result should sometimes be 3 or 51

You see, there are only a fow things which work out, like arith. metic, and in the arithmetic of this- world 2 and 2 are not always 4, and the result should be, rather, 8 or 6. But in most cases it is 3, and even in some cases only 1. But my teacher never taught me such re- sults, as these, which will be found in the Arithmetic of life s

·

I had often thought that my father might know this and would teach me later on, but he died white I was very young, and my mother had a great respect for those worthy tenchors Alas! my dear mother also died some time after, and while I was wandering in London my fondly loyed younger brother and sister lied too.

Do you still believe that 2 and, 2: are always 4? Then why did my younger brother and sister die before me?

Thus I missed the opportunity of marrying a beautiful "mermaid in the Mediterranean.

However, I found a little girl who was born in the Inland Sea of Japan and married her.

יז

I have no space here to tell you about the romance of my marriage. but I should like to say one thing. on that is that I was lucky in marrying a Japanese girl, not he- cause I am a Japanese, but because I am not expected to take a cup of < tea to my wife in bed every morn-; ingar to tie her shoe laces in the street!

Also, I am not asked to help with housework as soon as I come home from the office,
