DODGES CURIOUS CROWD

Los Angeles, Cal, March IL
Mary Pickford, weeping and worn,
stumbled from the train here Friday,
on her return from Minden, New, at
which place she obtained divorce
decree Tuesday from owen Moore.
Miss Pickford waited until the pas
sengers had all left the car, then
neered out and seeing newspaper men
and camera men, flanked by a crowd
of the curious, she fled from the op-
posite side Of the car. AS she ran
with tears streaming down her face,
she stumbled and fell. Her mother
helped ner up and they fled in a
waiting car and sped away.
Miss Pickford would not pause 10
answer the questions fired at her by
eager interviewers, but her mother
spoke for her.
"This is entirely a personal mat
ter" she said, "and neither the pa
pers nor the public have any right
to be prying into it. Why car, I
you leave the poor little girl alone?
She is nervous and broken up. Can t
you see she is crying? This is just

WILSON s CHARGES.
AGAINST FRANCE
Noted Political Writer Says
President Has No Right To
Talk of Our "Imperialism''

Paris, March IL. President Will
sons charges against France made in
the letter he sent early this week to
Gilbert M. Hitchcock, Democratic
leader in the United States Senate,
are said by "Pertinax," political edi-
tor of the Echo De Paris, to ''be aim
ed at France by name, but at Mar
shall Foch by implication"
The so-called imperialism Of
France" says the writer in discuss
! ing Mr.. Wilson's letter, Consists in
the conviction, fortified by all the
lessons Of history that to guarantee
herself against attacks from Gen.
trail Europe she must hold the Rhine
bridgeheads. .
In the course o. his article "Per-
tinax" says President Wilson went
to the session of the supreme council
on May 29, 1919, much perturbed,
and read to Premiers Clemenceau and
Lloyd George a letter from Pierre
pont B. Noyes, American member
of the Rhineland commission, who
declared that the agreement reached
on May II for the administration OF
the Rhineland was more brutal than
it's authors themselves would desire,
as it provides for intolerable oppres-
sion of six million inhabitants or
| Of the region during many years"
Mr.. Noyes' letter added that Amer
lean officers with whom he had dis
cussed the question strongly support
ed his views and was accompanied
by a plan of occupation involving
minimum of military domination, 1T
is said.
Wilson Imposed Moves Views
"This plan," the article asserts,
! "was nothing more or less than the
convention providing for occupation
Of the Rhineland signed with Ger
manv at Versailles on June 2S, 1919,
because President Wilson was able
at the meeting Of May 29 to impose
the views Of Mr.. Noyes on the su-
preme council, and new commits
sion consisting of Marshal Focn'
General Tasker B. Bliss, American
peace delegate, and Field Marshal
| Sir Henry Hughes, chief OF the I'M
perial staff of the British army re-
ceived orders to prepare new
scheme Of occupation based on Amer
i lean ideas"
The writer declares Marshal Foch
in discussing the plan evolved by this
commission said: .-
sThe Germans asked for an I'M
perial commissioner and they were
given not only a commissioner, but
a civil administration commission
which is much more than they claim
ed" =,
"These words of Marshal Foch,
he continues, "characterize the whole
business today. In consequence IL
is plain to see the Rhlneland shares
fully in the life Of united Germany
and in the distribution Of coal there
Germany goes so far as to distinguish
hetween inhabitants she supposes fa-
vorable or unfavorable to u.s..
"In a word the work Of France IS
compromised by Mr.. Wilson atter
such examples of our moderation.
President Wilson has no right to talk
of our imperialism ~
