ALLIES IN FULL ACCORD
NOW, LLOYD GEORGE SAYS
misunderstanding as to the Ruhr
Endangered Peace of Europe,
He Declares.
BY Associated Press to Every Evening

BY Associated Press 10 Every Evening
London, April 29-Premier Lloyd
George, speaking in the House of Com
mons today on the subject of the recent
allied conference at San Reno, said
before the conference there had been some
misunderstanding serious in themselves
but made grave by deliberate fomenting
on the part of very reckless persons.
'But," continued the Premier, II am
glad to say that the sky is once more
clear So far as ! can see every one is
satisfied at what happened at San Reno. !"
The conference dspelled all suspicion
that the treaty of Versailles was not to be
enforced, the premier said.
Mr.. Lloyd George said there had been
no difference of opinion between the allies
as to enforcement of the treaty. mis-
understanding arose, he declared, over
the question as TO woh should put down
the disturbance in the RUIN, which threaten
ed the peace not only Of Germany but of
Europe. The French thought it ought to
be suppressed by the Allies, the Premier
asserted, but all the others believed it
should be left to the Germans. This
difference had been settled, MIR Lloyd
George said, and the Germans informed
that the moment the German troops in
the Ruhr were reduced TO the properties
fixed by the allies last August, the French
troops would be withdrawn from Frank
fort and Darmstadt.

Government Engineer Making a
Survey of Wells for Drinking
Purposes.

The State water supply and those towns
in Delaware that are used as terminals
by the railroads in the sense of supplying
drinking water for drains passing through
Delaware, have been the subject OF a
government investigation for the past
two weeks. =
The inspection has been made by Cap
tain J Pinois who with an assistant has
made a physical examination of the wells
in those cities where the railroads procure
drinking water to determine any potential
danger. What the government men

not be known until it is announced from
Washington.
The government was formerly satisfied
