AFTER a few days of the strike rail-

Instances almost normal restoration Of

curtailment of the movement Of

practically all the necessaries Of life.

consequent lessening of production.
contributing to further increase In
prices and the cost of living. But
since responsible unionism has been
under direct attack and public senti-
ment has been aroused. the two forces
see a clearing Of the atmosphere and
ultimate good as a result of the fray.
Germany seems surprised and en-
deavors to muster a show of indigna-
ton that the French should have
taken seriously the terms of the peace
treaty. With the movement of the
German reichswehr In unauthorized
force into the Ruhr basin (part Of the
neutral zone of 80 klometers on the
right bank Of the Rhine) the French
promptly occupied the German cities
of Frankfort, Darmstadt, Homburg.
Hanau and Dieburg and surrounding
territory. French officiadom points
out that Germany had already slipped
out of ten cOmpllances with the
treaty, the most important being fall
ure to disarm. nonpayment of indem-
mites. no prosecution of her war GRIM
inals and failure to deliver coal to
France; also that If permitted to get
away with such a vital violation as
invasion of the neutral zone, she would
soon discard all pretenses of living up
to the pact. It is further pointed out
that NOske far from reducing Ger
many's army to the point demanded
in the treaty, had really been building
up a great and potent military force
from the remnants Of the old army.
The French, and they are not alone in
the assertion. claim that Germany
still has 1880 cannon, and could now
mobilize more than 2,0OO.O00 trained
men armed with rifles, machine guns
and minenwerfer, The assertions are
a tribute to German organizing effi-
cheney and charge that camoufaged as
auxiliary troops, safety guards, police
men, civic guards. regulars. volunteers.

has no less than 35OO,OOO men who

longing to a military organization and

his home. The French occupation has
been criticized as lacking allied sup
port, but the allies were drifting apart
on important matters before that. At
any rate, the occupation appears to
be complete so far as II has gone and
promises TO end with a compromise
with allied supervision OF German OPP

Sc, 200 NEEDED FOR Y. W. C. A.
Fund Drive Falls Short: Other
Methods to Be Used,

In spite of efforts of everybody con-
cerned, the recent Young women's
Christian Association drive for $685.
600 to complete it's budget for the
coming year fell considerably short
OF the desired goal. At yesterday
afternoons final meeting of the ex-
ecutive committee. of which Mrs.
Robert Lansing was chairman, addi-
tional contributions amounting to
about $4,000 were reported. The
business and professional women's
teams accounted for about $500 of
this sum, and approximately half of
the amount they turned in was the
result of their government tag day on
Thursday. in which only two or three
specified bureaus were covered.
According to yesterday afternoons
figures. the total amount collected in
the ten days of the drive was S2S.-
St1.49-a shortage of $1,000. which
will have to be raised in some other
way.
