FOCH is SUPPORTING
THE RHINE REPUBLIC

Mannheim, Wednesday, June A.
(By the Associated Press)-When the
project of the Rheinish republic was
first broached, Marshal Foch, COM
nander in chief of the allied armies,
was approached through occupation
officers and asked whether the Rhine
landers could work for republic
without the risk of being disciplined
by Germany, according to the Ueiue
Baden Landebbeitung.
The newspaper states that Marshal
Foch and Premier Clemenceau, of
France, conferred on the subject and
sent a reply to the Rhinelanders to
the effect that the German govern
nent would never again have anything
to do with the left bank of the Rhine
and hence the propagandists could not
be punished.
1t is further suggested that France
will help the new republic economic
ally so as to tighten the financial in
demnity chargable to the Palatinate.
Marshal Foch has notified the Cent
rist members of the national assem-
bly,, according to the report. that he
would relieve their electors from the
necessity of paying indemnity.

COMMENTS ON THE
NEW TRAFFIC ORDINANCE

Editor Star: The columns of your
paper are frequently used for dis
cussions of various public matters,
and after reading the proposed new
traffic ordinance, will ask your pei
mission to utilize a little space. We
have just organized a board of
trade-or reorganized it, and every
body is trying to back it up for a
better Ocala. If the present traffic
ordinance were enforced, there would
be no need to think of a new one. A
lot of people ride down town to their
work, some through choice and others
of necessity. Suppose for arguments
sake that all of one side of a given
street covered by the ordinance is
lined up with cars and some one hav-
ing a business or Office on the other
side of said street comes down in his
car. He must either go around and
leave his car on the square or else
where equally distant and walk back,
and who wants to leave his car a
block or two away half a day at a
time during this rainy weather and
season of burglary? Suppose this man
is doctor and receives a hurry call !?
Suppose on the other hand a crippled
patient comes to see him and arrives
under the same circumstances, not to
mention bad weather? Why should a
storekeeper on the side of a street
which happens to be the parking side
under the proposed new law have the
front of his place utilized for parking
of cars used by people right then
either carrying on their own business
permanently elsewhere, or dealing
with his competitor? If all the block
on his side is parked up, is his/cus-
toner going a block away and walk
back, or won't that customer very
probably make that purchase else
where? / believe if the public will
take time to read over this ordinance,
they will decide it will be a public
nuisance, not only to local people but
to country people coming here to
trade. Ocala is not in position mu-
nicipally to do anything to clog the
wheels of its commerce. Our merch-
ance and business men pay enough
taxes and contribute enough to other
calls to fully justify the city of Ocala
il exerting itself in every way to re-
move obstacles and promote success
rather than legalizing hindrances.

agency for the Moon automobiles, in
cluding the light SO fve-passenger
car, the Victory seven-passenger and

the Moon being a popular car In

BRITISH BOY MISSED
HIS YANKEE FRIENDS

London.-(C CORRESPONDENCE of the
Associated Press airmen
who befriended and made a mascot of
named George Loveridge, will be
grieved to learn that the lad had a
hard time of it after they returned to
the United States. Charged with
sleeping in hayrick and having no
visible means of support, the youth
was arraigned in the Uxbridge police
court the other day.
'Well, my boy" questioned the
court, "haven't you any friends at
all?"
"Only the Yanks, sir" the prisoner
replied.
He said his father and mother were
killed and their house wrecked by a
bomb in an air raid in October, 1917.
"Some American airmen," he went
on, "took pity on me and called me
the mascot of the 186th squadron.
They treated me very kindly, gave me
uniform and took me with them
wherever they went. I was paid $40
month by the paymaster. When the
squadron went to France they wanted
to take me, but the war office wouldn't
let them, so they asked the 153d
squadron to take care of me. When
that left for France was handed
over to the 228th squadron and came
with them to Northolt.
"Now they have returned to Amer
lea. They tried hard to take me, but
the government said I couldn't go for
four years. | spent all my money and
had to sleep under the hayrick."
