These two young women We're
virtually born into Salvation Army
work for their parents for years
We're working members OF this great
peace ARMY. They went TO, France
last February. The following notes
of their work. jotted down In diary
form, gives in part the interesting
story Of work done by these two
pucky American girls:
February - At last we are in

Two days after we arrived we
had our first Introduction to real war

We used up a scrubbing brush and
several pieces Of soap and lot Of

A good many towns in farming COM

they remain wholly unconscious that

The fuel restrictions were lifted in
Julesburg last Monday morning, and
business is again being resumed in a
normal way. The Fuel AdmInistra-
ton considered that the emergency
ceased to exist with the settlement of
the miners strike and the ban was
therefore lifted, which was indeed
pleasing to our citizens. However,
the coal shortage situation is not en-
tirely relieved, and the citizens Of
Julesburg and community are urged to
use lust measures in the future con

,ovince and fears that the separation

province and fears that the separation
movement may carry with II still
more Of her western territory. Count
vow BRooKDoRrF-RANTzAu, the chief
OF the German delegation at Paris,
has stated the German position by
entering q formal protest declaring
that the armies Of occupation are
favoring the formation of the new
State. The action taken by the Amer
lean and English commanders In the
occupied area has, however, given no
reason for this contention.
The American attitude was shown
at the time Of the announcement Of
the establishment Of the republic, when
General LIGGETT declared that any
demonstration for or against the re-
public would be dealt with as a vio-
lation Of the American Army orders
and would be punished as such. 1t
was stated too that the American au-
thorities would not permit DR.. Dor
TEN to set up his government at Co
blenz and that they would continue
to recognize the existing Government
until ordered to do otherwise. In
formation from Cologne was to the
effect that the same stand was taken
In the British area Of occupation.
The report that the new republic
owed Its establishment to French In
fluence and that It was to be backed
by France seems to have come en-
tirely from German sources. The
basis for the report was the action Of
General MANGIN in issuing a procla-
nation at Mayence forbidding strikes
against the Rhine Republic and
threatening the leaders Of strikes
with expulsion. In this proclamation
General MANGIN said there was moth
ing In the procedure Of the Rhine
landers (which might justify strikes
or protests which disturbed order or
economic life" He has since ex-
planned that he acted upon his own
responsibility and that he did not in
volve the French Government.
The German delegates are making
full use Of these conditions in the
Rhine Valley either to delay or pre-
vent action on the peace treaty. They
declare that II the Rhineland Is lost
Germany cannot meet her obligations
and that for that reason the situation
should be cleared before the signing
Of the treaty. The ALLIES are appar-
emily not inclined to oppose the inves-
tigation asked. They would rather
invite it, if it were not solely for the
purpose Of delay, as a means of dis
closing the full measure of the Ger
mans responsibility for situation
Of which they are so DESTROYS Of
taking advantage.
