GENERAL STRIKE IN
DENMARK HAS BEEN
CALLED OFF INDEFINITELY
The King Has Decided To Grant The
Electoral Reforms Demanded
BY The People

Copenhagen.--Not the
removal OF political obstacles and the
announcement that the general strike
had been called off, it still continued
to be effective The employers or
CARNATIONS and the trades unions have
Both yielded on many points, but are
faced by serious, perhaps insurmount-
able, difficulties through the uncom-
promising attitude of certain workers
outside the trades unions organization.
These workers include the dock men.
The general strike was called off
following a general meeting of the
chairmen of all political parties in
the rigsdag called by King Christian.
The announcement stated that all
the parties had agreed it would be
necessary to hold elections after new
electoral law has been passed.
Premier Liebe declared, upon the
kings suggestion, that he desired to
retire. The king will now ask former
Director of the Ministry of Justice
Friis to form a cabinet, with the I'M
erstanding that the rigsdag resume its
sessions as soon as possible and begin
negotiations for an electoral bill. All
the chairmen promised to cooperate
with a cabinet formed upon that ba-
sis. The resignation Of the Liebe min
istry, after five days tenure of Of
flee, means that the Socialists will
consent to call off the general strike
providing the new electoral bill is
carried through all the parliamentary
stages before the dissolution of the
rigsdag and the new elections.

FRENCH ADVANCE
SEEMS CERTAINTY
TEUToN DELEGATION AT PARIS
LAUGHS AT THREATS OF
OCCUPATION
GIVES UP HOPE OF U. S. AID
Millerand Invites Participation OF v,
S. Troops On Rhine II Forward
Movement Is Ordered

Paris.--Despite strong French init
nations of coercive military action un-
less the Germans should withdraw
from the neutral zone, foreign office
dispatches reported that the German
troops everywhere in the Ruhr region
are making progress.
Intervention by the French regu-
lar forces may lead to the worst con
sequences in the words Of Premier
Millerand in a state regarding the in
yasion.
After sharp combats near Vessel,
Ham and Walsum, the foreign office
advices state, the German soldiers con
tinued to advance.
Nothing has yet been announced re.
garding Frances next step with re-
gard to the sending Of German troops
into the Ruhr coal basin, with the ex-
ception Of a vague official statement
which says that any military measures
the French government has under con
sideration are merely for the purpose
of forcing Germany to adhere strictly
to the terms of the peace treaty.
THE military measures under the
governments consideration have as
their sole object the recall of Ger
many to respect for Articles XIII and
Xiv OF the peace treaty, which for
bid the presence of German troops in
the zone so kilometers east of the
Rhine" the statement says. "They
are, therefore, purely restrictive meas
ures."
phe terms used in the official state
ment are measures of "astreinte," a
legal expression conveying the idea
of both penalty and constraint. Such
measures are taken by the newspapers
to mean the occupation of Frankfort,
Hanau, Homburg and Darmstadt. The
newspapers express the belief that Of
fetal announcement of the occupation
is only awaiting Premier Millerand's
notification of and consultation with
the allies.

APPROVE SOLDIER RELIEF BILL
Vocational Education May supplant
Cash Bonus In Many
Instances

Washington. relief legisla-
ton, with probable provision for a
cash bonus, funds for which would
be raised by sale or Injuries taxes,
has been approved by the ways and
means committee by vote OF 10 to
6. Details OF the bill to be recon-
mended will be worked out by sub
committees to be appointed later.
Members of the committee hope to
obtain final action by the house be-
fore the contemplated recess for the
national political conventions, but they
express doubt whether action by the
senate could be had at this session.
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts,
the Republican leader, after a confer
ence with other senate Republicans
as to future legislation in the senate,
said he thought this would include
bill to give a money bonus to former
service men, with provisions for a spe-
cial tax to raise the necessary funds.
The program approved by the house
committee declares against any bond
issue. It is understood to have been
submitted by Representative Long
worth. Republican, of Ohio, and was
discussed at great length in executive
session.
While the exact form of legislation
was not decided upon, committee dis
cussion was said to have indicated APP
prevail of a plan of extending voca-
tional education as an alternative to
the cash bonus.
These two plans are a part OF the
American Legion's program. It's 9th
er selected plan of government aid to
soldiers and sailors for building homes
or obtaining ownership Of farms were
said by some members of the COM
mittee to involve too many difficult
ties to be worked out by legislation be-
fore the recess.

GERMAN RED ARMY
MUST GIVE UP ITS
ARMS BY APRIL 10
Commander In Ruhr District Handi'
capped by Lack Of Military
Supplies

Dusseldorf. -Soldiers Of the work
mems army in the Ruhr district must
make a delivery of their arms to To-
cal authorities before April 10 under
the agreement reached between the
government and the central commit
tee of the workmen's general confer
ence held recently at Essen. They
will not be considered rebels if fight
ing ceases Immediately
The commander Of the Communist
troops before Vessel gave pledge to
the conference for the strict observ-
ance of the agreement He declared
he had, really good army, but could
not continue fighting because he lack
ed ammunition and asserted all loot
ing had been suppressed and that all
Iooters had been shot.
Il will shoot with my own pistol,
he said, amy Communist soldier who
disobeys the order to withdraw and
disarm."
Assurance was given the delegates,
however, that there would be no trou-
BILE. There is some apprehension felt
as to few extremist groups particu-
larly as they have learned Of a report
that government troops have entered
at several points and that two work
mems delegates were arrested while
going to Essen for the conference.

WAVE OF HIGH PRICES
GRADUALLY RECEDING
RESERVE BANK SAYS
Manufacturers Al over Country Elk
press Belief That Peak Has
Been Passed

Washington. Nationwide reports
from federal reserve bank officials dis
close their opinion that the postwar
era of extravaganza and reckless
buying" by the people is nearing its
end ST
"A hesitation, if not an actual recess
sion of prices is noted and the fed
eral reserve boards statement sum
marizes its advices as indicating a
generally more hopeful view of the
countrys business condition than for
several months.
While the price changes were shown
by the board not to be universal they
were nevertheless regarded as posi-
tive and OF Importance as basis for
reckoning what the immediate future
holds.
Relief from the high prices for the
consumer will not be completely OBJ
tanned until preseNt stocks are absorb

the boards view Manufacturers eV-
erywhere, however were shown to
hold the view that the peak of high
prices has been reached and to ex-
pect a gradual recession,

the board said there was marked
