Berlin POzCerS
Issue Manifesto
Promise Energetic Measures
to Restore Order if Commu-
niSts Fail by March 80.

Berlin, March 29.--Energetic meas
ures to restore order and to protect
the German people from illegal acts"
will be taken by the government
against communist forces operating
in the Ruhr region, said a manifesto
issued by the government yesterday
If leaders of the communists fail by
March 80 to give adequate guarantees
to Gen.Von Waiter, commander Of
government troops in that district
The following stipulations are laid
down as conditions upon which the
government will refrain from taking
drastic steps to punish those who
have opposed it's authority;
Unconditional recognition of con-
stitutional state authority.
1 Restoration of official civilian and
police service, providing they have
not been implicated in the movement
supporting the reactionary regime set
up by DR.. Wolfgang Kapp March IS.
Immediate release of prisoners.
If these conditions are accepted the
government will not intervene, but If
they are not Gen. Won Waiter will re-
celve full power to proceed.
The manifesto declares the Biele-
field agreement has not been kept, as
attacks on Wesel are continuing and
as complaints from all circles of the
populace against the crimes of the
extremists have been received by the
government.
Gradually Restore OrGer.
Berlin, March 29.-(A. P)-The
news from the Ruhr industrial dis
trict, the Rhineland in Germany and
Westphalia, permits the conclusion
that order will be gradually restored
in these regions. where rebellious
forces of workingmen have been op-
Grating, it was declared here today.
At a meeting yesterday at Hagen
Westphalia, the three socialist par
ties decided to withdraw from the
Muelheim headquarters, the seat OF
the rebel control, and, if necessary, to
fight under republican Leadership
against the Muelheim faction, dis
patches from Hagen announced. the
behavior of this faction, which was
characterized as anarchistic, was de-
Clared to be held in these SoclalSl
quarters as constituting a danger tC
the industrial region.
Similar decisions, it is stated, are
expected from Dortmund, Elberfelc
| and Bremen, which would mean tht
| isolation of the Muelheim faction
This faction, however, so far, has not
! changed its attitude in making de-
mands which far exceed the terms oi
! the agreement reached few days
ago at Bielefeld for a settlement th'
| carrying out of which was prevented
| by further military activities on th'
part of the workingmen. These ue
mands, in excess of the settlement
/ terms. were for the complete disarm
ing and disbanding Of the regulal
| troops and the establishment OF
peoples army, composed of workmen
| to which all arms must be surren'
! dered.

Government PROPOSALS.

Essen, March 2S.-(A. P)-De-
layed.)-Prospects of a speedy peace
in the revolutionary workmen's
movement in the Ruhr region seemed
bright tonight following a conference
of representatives OF the Berlin
trades unions and the communist au-
thorities. There were signs of dis
cord in the workingmen' army and
conflict between the military and
civil leaders of the movement, and
the conference declared strongly for
supremacy of the political leaders.
The conference decided to demand
control of all arms and ammunition,
with seizure of the munitions plants,
particularly the Krupp and Tyssen
works. To forestall the possibility of
the governments rejection of the
conferences proposals. the threat of
a general strike, which had pre-
viously been made to support it's de-
mands, was Incorporated in a reso-
luton by which the conference, rep
resenting the executive committees
of fifty-nine cities and districts,
agreed, if necessary, to use all pos
sible means to effect a most com
plete general strike.

Fire at HoiiandaIe.

The most disastrous fire Hollan-
dale ever witnessed occurred Tues
day evening and destroyed several
business places and a dwelling house.
The fire broke out in the attic Of
the John Dunstan< building from an
unknown cause. The flames were
soon beyond control. Everyone
turned in and helped but it was nee
essary to call help from Mineral
Point to help check the flames.
The lower floor of the Dunstan
building was used by G. L. Severson
as a hardware store and was filled
with a valuable stock of goods. The
second story was occupied by George
Burris and daughter as living rooms.
The stock was worth about $4,000.
Mrs. Morgan's residence adjoining at
the rear soon caught fire and
burned. Most of the household
goods was saved The G. L Loc k
man furniture store with living
rooms upstairs also burned some of
their goods were saved. The build
ings were insured
1t was all the firefighters could
do to save Johnson & Hegeland' S
store which caught fire several
times. The barber shop next to Nor
gan's residence was saved only by
the good work of the firefighters.
By saving these buildings the flames
were checked which probably would
have burned most Of the business
section.

THE HOME NEWSPAPER

When people want to interest dis
tant friends in their home town,
they send away copies of the 1oca,
newspaper.
When anyone wants to know what
kind of place a distant town is, he
sends and gets copy of the local
newspaper.
When the merchants are full of
courage and advertise freely, an i'm
preston is created among the many
people outside the town who see the
paper that this is an exec edingly
bright and wide-awake business
town. If at times the merchants lie,
up a little on their advertising, the
town does not look SO good to out
siders.
In supporting the home paper,
therefore, you not merely get the To-
cal and business news, but you help
on all civic cause, you are enabled to
participate to the fullest extent In
it's life, and you help the town exert
influence and create a favorable i'm
preston outside.-Suffolk County
