l*ody boiause the allies had decided
to limit its authority and since the
naval and air commissions have boon
idagated to positions of secondary
* importance.
The military control commission be
iran to function as soon as the treaty
• »f Vcisailles became effective.
Presided over by (Jcneral Nollet ot
tin* Pencil army with headquarters
in lo ilin and reporting to Marshal
Koch, the commission, in addition to
its supervision of Ciernian disarma
ment. has taken an active interest
in tin* political-military developments
ill (lermany. Reports of tin* recrud
pseense of Prussian militarism in Hast
Prussia and Pomerania first emanated
from reports of the commission to the
supreme council.
A sub-committee of the commission
I
was sent into the Kuhur district foi
investigation under the command of
the French Major Graff and it was
the repoit of this mission to offi
cial advices, which formed the basis
foi French contentions at San Kemo
of German duplicity.
The work of the commission is di
vided into two general subjects; ef
fectives and armaments. The sub-som
mittee devoted to the subject of ef
fectives is concerned with the size
ami organization of the German army
'• h:Ie the sub-committee on arma
ment.'- is concerned chiefly with main
taining a proper reduction of stocks
of guns and ammunition in Germany.
Xo place in Germany is exempt
from investigation hy representatives
of ihese committees as authority of
the supreme council in the past has
been invoked several times to obtain
execution of th>» commission’s de
mands.
The sub-committees, in an ef
fort to maintain strict police over
potential German militarism, have or
ganized numerous agents into district
sub-committees throughout Germany.
Such district committees on effectives
are presided over by French officers
in Pomerania and Schleswig, East
Prussia, Bavaria and Silesia; by

BOTTF.M HAS FALLEN
OFT OF HIDE MARKET
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., July BJ
—Hide dealers here declare the hot
oni has fallen out of the hide anti wool
markets.
Croon salted hides which two weeks
ago wore soiling for eighteen cents a
pound have dropped to twelve. \\ B.
I.aDryer, manager of a well establish
ed hide company here, says the price
will go as low as ton cents, adding
that the same condition exists in all
the markets of the country.
The wool market shows an even
worse state of demoralization, accord
ing to Mr. La Dryer. Wool which a
year ago ranged from fifty to fifty
five cents a pound now is virtually im
possible to get twenty-five cents for,
he states. The demand for wool is so
slight, he said, that no dealers are
making purchases except where they
get an opportunity to buy at sueh low
prices that they are willing to take a
chance.
A recent attempt of the Wool
Grower’s association to hold a wool
sale at Enid, was called off because
here were no buyers.
