    Reuter's Service. Washington, December 4. A warning against "blindly deluding ourselves" on the subject of national defence was sounded by Mr. Dwight F. Davis, Secretary of War, in his annual report. He says that there has been only a partial execution of the plan for defence mapped out in 1920. Even the maintenance of the army on the present basis requires an appropriation of more funds annually. Mr. Davis disapproves of the proposals to transfer the army engineer corps' duties to outside the army. The present system of administering the rivers and harbours is very economical in the* long run. He estimates that the completion of the waterway and harbour developments now progressing will take $225,000,000 and last at least fwe years. Approximately 85 per cent of the Ohio River development had been completed. Inland waterways were carrying 200,000,000 tons of cargo annually, at an economicsaving of at least $150,000,000 annually. Mr. Davis lays stress on the necessity for providing proper barrack quarters for the army personnel.  -  346 words

    Reuter's Service. Berlin. December 5. That the Dawr> plan is successfully standing the test of time is revealed in tiu annual report of the Agent-General for reparations, stating that thti course of events probably exceeded the experts' anticipations', pointing out that foreign loans and other fundi steadily flowed to Germany to a point sometimes surpassing the capacity of the countay to moke an advantageous use of them. The r «port alludes to the serious bu»>iness crisis at the end of the first annuity year, when many enterprises fai.ed to the great cost of individuals but to the undoubted benefit of the whole country, since industry and commerce were thereby fre-d from encumbrances and complexities and were now better able to take advantage of favouring developments. The report pays tribute to the spirit of friendly accommodation which has marlced the administration of the scheme; Germany hud loyally and punctually met her obligations and the distribution to the creditors was effected regularly without difficulty.  -  332 words
