PACT OF VERSAILLES
 WILL BE ENFORCED

London, April 29-Prernier Lloyd George, speaking in the House of Commons today on the subject of the recent Allied conference at Sam Reno, said that before the conference there had been some miS1nderstandings, serious enough in themselves but made grave by deliberate foTnendng on the part of very reckless persons.
 But" continued the Premier, 'I am glad to say that the sky is once more clear. So far as I can see every one is satisfied at what happened at San Reno."
 ence had been the most remarkable one in every respect held since the arniStice. There never had been such a conference as regarded satisfaction with the agreement by all the parties concerned or the happiness which it had been able to bring about, he said. The conference, the premier declared, dispelled all suspicion that the treaty of Versailles was not to be enforced.
 MT. Lloyd George said there had been no difference of opinion between the allies as to enforcement of the treaty. A misunderstanding arose he declared, over the question as to who should put down the disturbance in the Ruhr which threatened the peace not only of Germany but of Europe. The French thought it ought to be suppressed by the allies, the premier asserted, but all the others believed it should be left to the Germans. This difference had been settled, MT, Lloyd George said, and the Germans informed that the moment the German troops in the Ruhr were reduced to the proportions fixed by the allies last August, the French troops would be withdrawE from Frankfort and Darmstadt.

 WERE FALSE

Pontiac, Mich, April 2e-Anson Best, this morning in the presence of his attorney, Prosecutor Glenn c. Gillespie and a number of newspa- per men, repudiated the confession the prosecutor declared he made in the Vera Schneider murer case.
 The prisoner maintained that his first story, told when he was stopped at the scene of the murder, is the truth and that his admissions made, according to the prosecutor in the presence of several officers yester- day, were all false and due to his fear of the officers and fatigue from questioning.
 Plans to arraign the man again in circuit court today have been defer red because of the new development.

est races are infused into the life
OF the weaker (races)- The dom
inant powers of one race are
made &c blend with the doniin-
ant powers of another race, and
because of this power of assimila-
ton in our civilization we were
able to show to the world the
accomplishments of genius dur
ing the late war.
When the native born realizes
the strength added to his own
virile qualities by the qualities of
his adopted brother to the gen
eral American character, he will
with more propriety and better
meaning shout America for
Americans"
Some people want US to be
periodical in our patriotism as
though it were made only for
the Fourth of July and Decora-
ton Day; or as though it should
be locked up in a safe and
brought out in times of war to
rouse young men to enlist in the
army. Fie COR such a feeling.
Real patriotism should burn in
the heart Of every citizen contin
ually. 1t should be on the tip
toe of eagerness for his country's
welfare and ready to trample to
death any issue bringing dishon-
or to it's good name and stand
ard. 1t was heard from promi-
nent lips that cit is time to let
up a little on that sort of thing"
Why should we let up? Sorry

country, first, last, and all the
