Lloyd George Says Plan Is Better

LONDON, Aug. S.--The vote for an
advance OF 100000 to Germany in
connection with the Spa coal agree
ments came up last night m the House
of Commons. 1t was not seriously
challenged and was agreed to with
out revision In the course OF his
speech Premier Lloyd George said the
proposal for securing coal was much
better than sending a large costly
army for It. He argued that Ger
many must pay her debts either in
gold or goods, She had no gold, he
declared, but coal was the equiva-
lent OF gold or even more valuable.s
However," added the Premier,
Germany is unable to produce suf-
flclent coal while her population is
unfit and i'll fed. Hence she must be
helped"

She made it from a blue flannel shirt,

dom Avenue. which was found later to
nave been looted by burglars. Walsh
was carrying several bundles and WAS
headed tor an automobile that stood at
the curb. At sight of the patrolman
he dropped the bundles and ran.
Pursued by the patrolman, he ran
south block to l59th Street and
turned east toward st. Nicholas Ave
nue.. In the course Of the chase the
patrolman fred two shots in the air.
the effect Of which was merely to ac-
celeratc the fugitive's pace Decker
was close behind him when Walsh dart
ed INTO the apartment house and was
ma II way down the entrance hall when
Walsh turned to 20 down the stairs
leading to the cellar.
As he turned he thrust his hand into
his pocket. Decker said and. feeling
sure that he intended to take a shot
at him at close range, the patrolma n
tired. The shot aroused tenants in the
building, who clustered on the stairs
and IN the hall while an ambulance e
surgeon examined Walsh's wound

cop" Walsh is said to have exclaimed
as he was being carried to the ambu-
