MARSHAL FOCH'S TERMS
WILL PROTECT FRANCE
VIII Effectively Disarm Central Powers
on the Side Nearest France, Barriers
Of Free States to Be Erected
There and in the East.

London, March 3.-Commenting upon
the terms which Marshal Foch will pre-
sent to the Germans, the Times says:
''They will be severe and such as win
effectively dsarm the central powers on
the side nearest France France has a
just right to extra military guarantees
on her frontiers towards Germany, and
these guarantees may well have to take
the form of special territorial readiust-
ments. In any case, France may count
on our sympathy and assistance in OBJ
tanning all these necessary guarantees.
But the chief weakness in the future
viii be in eastern Europe, and that is
why a barrier of new states to be erected
between the Baltic and Adriatic will need
strengthening by every means in our
power Although France has a particu-
lar interest in the west front, the defec-
tion of bolshevik Russia makes it desr-
able that she should find some substi-
tute on the east for her old Russian al
lance, and it must be great Joy to her
people that this substitute should take
the form of a barrier line of free peoples.
Our position has many points of re-
semblance to that of France. The main
avenues of the league of nations com
municating with free peoples between
the Baltic and Adriatic will be over the
sea, and therefore, we are anxious about
free passage into the Baltic and also that
there should be at its eastern end friend
ly powers to provide the navies of the
league after they have entered the Baltic
with repairs and facilities of operation.
But that is not all. AS in eastern
Europe, we hope to see a barrier of free
states erected so that England which
has India to think of, may be protected
in the middle east. No one substitute
will cover all the ground once occupied
by the Ottoman empire. Its old func-
tions will have to be divided between
new Arabia, new Armenia and new Pal
estine. That is why the question of
Syria is so important to us. France has
a right to the best frontiers possible on
the side of Germany, and we have a
similar right in the middle east, for it is
not our way to keep huge armies garri-
soning frontiers. Our way is to dimin-
ish our military liabilities by a system
of buffer states.
"Our position in Egypt gives us espe-
cial interest in the future of Palestine.
and the same applies to Arabia. Such
considerations as these are not incon-
sistent with the principles of the league
of nations. On the contrary, the nearer
an ideal carriers it's head to the clouds.
the more firmly must its feet be planted
on solid ground.
The Times concludes by speaking of
the value of American support, saying:

see it her way to give

HOUSE RANSACKED;
PEOPLE At CHURCH
Burglar Got Small Amount of Money at
Residence of DR.. 0. G. Stickney;
Tried to Open the Safe.

Again last night Barre's burglar got in
some more Of his work, this time at u
home of DR.. O. G. Stickney, where q So
bill and some Sunday school money were
found missing upon the return OF DR..
and Mrs. Stickney from the lecture at
the Congregational church.
Upon going upstairs, Mrs. Stickney
found articles scattered about the floor
in their sleeping room and other signs
that someone had entered during their
absence, and on looking in the bureau
drawer, she found missing So bill which
had been left there Investigating fur
ther, it was discovered that some Sunday
school money, probably between So and
S3, although the exact amount is not
known, was also gone The intruder
also tampered considerably with the doc
tors safe, in a vain effort to look over
its contents.
The burglars tracks were easily fol-
lowed and he took considerable pains to
make his entrance. Walking along the
wall between the Stiekney house &nd
that of H. A. Phelps, the person made
his way down at the rear of the house
and by standing on fence, though it
had plckets on the top, he managed to
raise the window of room on the sec
ond floor of the house Then he had ac-
cess to the whole premises The window
sticks after going up short distance
and only a small person could have
crawled in through it.
Next to the room where he entered is
the sleeping room of the family and
probably his first stop was there After
taking all the loose change available, the
person went downstairs, unsuccessfully
tried to open the safe, unlocked a back
door and departed.
The police we're notified and examined
closely the circumstances connected with
the break
This is but another in a series Of
breaks that have been continuing since
before Christmas.
