to any reduct ion of German reparations
debt by a committee of experts, nor will
she consent to any plan under which the
reparations commission would surrender
the prerogative conferred on it by the
\ ersailles treaty. Premier Poincare yes
terday gave notice that although France
welcomed American representation on
such a committee, she must insist that it
act only in conformity with the peace
treaty, thus virtually making the com
mittee an adjunct to the reparations staff.
Views Not Changed.
Washington. Oet. I'D.—Premier Poin
care's statement of the French attitude
toward the new reparations inquiry is
construed in official quarters here as lit
tle more in substance than a reassertion
of the obvious t that rights acquired
under the treaty of Versailles cannot, be
abridged except with the consent of the
parties to the treaty. I’iKm the propos
ed expert commission outlined by the
French premier sve not viewed as having
altered the situation in any material way.

DUKES GIVE BUILDING TO
ELON IN MOTHER’S MEMORY’
Will Contain One of Most Finished
Laboratories in the Country.
Elon College. Oct. 27.-^-!t xvas official
ly announced today from President W.
A. Harper’s office that two distinguished
sons of North Carolina. B. X. and J.
B. Duke, had decided to erect the science
building here, xvhich is a part of the re
building program, in memory of then
mother. This announcement has brought
joy to all members of the college.
The Arfelia Roney Duke Science
building is the fifth of the buildings in
the rebuilding program for Elon neces
sitated by the fire of January lsth.
This building is to be 120 sees long,
64 feet x\“de. three stories High, and
xvith basement. The first floor is to be
given over entirely to physics, lecture
room and laboratories: the second floor
is assigned to Biology and Geology, and
the third is for the chemical detinrt
meut.
The building is so constructed that
120 pupils in each department can be
on duty at the same time. The archi
tect, Herbert B. Hunter, in making the
plans for the building was assisted by
Professors Bran cock. Hook and Powell,
and made a careful study of recently
constructed science buildings. It is be
lieved that the Artelia Roney Duke
Science building xvill readily take rank
among the most ifficient college science
buildings in the country.
For a generation the Duke brothers
have been signal friends of Elon Col
lege. When the administration build
ing xvas burned a telegram xvas sent to
them giving the sad intelligence of the
fact, and immediately they wired $5,000
each in the rebuilding program, and now
they have decided to enable the college
to complete its rebuilding program at
this time by contributing the science
building.

EGYPT LIFTS COTTON BAN
Removes Restriction on Growing Crop

Cairo. Egypt, Ort. 25.—For several
years cotton cultivation in Egypt has
been regulated by a law providing that,
cultivators shall not grow the crop on
more than one-third of the land they

was to confine the cultivation of Egyptian
cotton to one-third of the jM>ssible yield,
! an# also to insure that a certain propor
| tion of the cotton land shall lie fallow
I annually in order to induce a better qual
ify of the Egyptian staple eventually.
• During the last two years, however,
growers have ignored the law more and
j more, and now the Government has de
leided that the law shall not be renewed
when it expires at the end yf the pres
