German indemnity were broken Mon
day; action comes with the march Of
French, British and Belgian forces
into Germany: and the occupation of a
large section of her richest manufac-
turing country.
The Allied troops are on the move,
a late Berlin dispatch saying French
troops who will occupy Dusseldorf
have advanced to within six miles of
that city.
The Allied ultimatum was fore
closed apparently with reluctance by
the British prime minister. The
French do not appear regretful, while
the Germans left Lancaster House,
where the conferences have been held,
plainly depressed.
Further Time Denied.
Two long sittings of the conference
threshed out the final break before
Marshal Fock and Field Marshal Will
son wrote kilograms ordering the COM
manders at the front to execute orders
already given them. DR.. Simons, the
German foreign secretary, presented
an alternate plan, whereby Germany
agreed to pay the annuities for the
first five years demanded in the Paris
plan, and also the equivalent of the
proposed IL per cent tax on exports,
but chung to the conditions for the re.
tention Of Upper Silesia and world
wide freedom Of German trade.
Mr.. Lloyd George, delivering judg.
ment for the Allies, said they deeply
deplored the necessity of the decision,
while DR.. Silnons chung to the last
to the contention that the Paris de-
mands were impossible for Germany
to fulfill. The Allies regarded the
German course as strategy for delay
and the latest plan as one whereby
the whole treaty would have to be re.
considered and debated after five
years, when Germany might hold a
more favorable position. DR.. Simons
finally asked for further time to con.
suit the German cabinet. This was.
denied
No Enthusiasm In Britain.
The French army will furnish the
bulk of the forces for the new march
into Germany. Great Britain's con-
tribution in men will be only large
enough to show her solidarity with
the Allies, who wait with the deepest
interest any sign from Washington,
any sign Of Americas attitude toward
the new enterprise.

HYsrE.RIA PERIOD PAST

Commenting upon the failure Of
the American public to get excited
over the threat of a railroad strike
an Illinois Journal remarks. Ia ex-
PLANTATION Of this, that "ror one
reason 1t Is nowadays a very DIM
cult matter to alarm the public" :"
Perhaps not many people have
observed Il. but II Is true neverthe-
less. that there lus been pro
nouneed change In the public mind
in the last few months. For eight
years the affairs OF the United
States Government we're administer
ed by an administration which was
given TO hysterfa.s Almost every
day for many months there was an
nouncement from the White House
of scme new "crisfs" which had
arisen. either In our domestic ;,or
our foreign affairs. and there was
spectacular action on the part OF
the President or members OF his
official family IN an effort TO save
the country from disaster. Some
bureau head was always finding
some new remedy for the Ills. or
supposed Ills. OF the nation and the
business men OF the country were
kept continually on edge watching
what the administration would do
next.
All this has been changed. We
have now in the White House a
man who is deliberate In his
thoughts and careful in his actions.
When some new problem arises
President Harding does not rush TO
Congress with request for the
creation OF a new bureau or com
mission and an allowance for the
creation of a new bureau or com
mission and an allowance OF a new
large appropriation in order that
the affairs OF private citizens may
be regulated In some new manner.
Neither do we have daily pronoun-
cements from the publicity bureaus
OF the various departments telling
Of new dangers that are confront
ting the nation and how some de-
partment head Is going TO save us
frcm disaster. When there was
threat OF a nationwide railroad |
strike President Harding undoubt-
edly fully realized the injury which
such a strike would cause but he
did not get excited about II. He
took counsel with members OF his
cabinet. with members OF the Rail-
road Labor Board and with mem
bers OF the Interstate Commerce
Commission. but there was no hys-
teria In any OF his moyemehts. The
calmness Of his mind was naturally
an Influence In keeping the rest of
the country from becoming unduly
perturbed.
This Is but one illustration of the
benefits OF having at the head of
the Government a man who has
self-control enough to act with de-
liberation and who will not keep
The country continually wrought upI
with anxious expectancy as to the
outcome of some new but perhaps
wholly imaginary national danger.

FOR RETURN
Of WOMAN
Wife of a Prominent Los
Angeles Broker Kidnapped
and Held for Ransom, by
Bandits Who Threaten
Her Life.
(By Associated presS1

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 27.-Mrs.
Gladys Witherell, %, the wife of o. S.
Witherell, the president Of loan and
investment company, who disappeared
from her home Tuesday night, was
kidnapped and is being held for ransom,
according to communications received
this morning by relatives.
These letters making demands for
the payment of large sums of money
are believed by the police to be iona
fidc. The Officers in charge of the
ease are reticent as to details they
have uncovered, but it is said that the
husband has been threatened that his
wife will be killed unless there is an
immediate payment of $4,000.
1t is also said that an appeal was
received indirectly from the missing
woman begging for help. The kid
napers, it is also said, have threatened
instant death to the woman, if their
demands for money are made public,
or made known to the police. With
erell has offered a reward of $500 for
any information of her whereabouts.
From an account given by Mrs.
Elizabeth Warner, who lives in a
house adjoining that of the Witherells
at 1843 Whitley avenue, man whom
she had never seen before rang her
door bell a few minutes after and
told her bad accident had happened
and Mrs. Witherell had been sent for.
Mrs. Warner was asked to go to the
Witherell house and take care of the
child. Jack, eighteen months old, un-
til Mrs. Witherell returned.
The man, Mrs. Warner said, was 45
or so years old, tall and gray haired,
smooth shaven and raw-boned.
AS Mrs. Warner entered the
Witherell house Mrs. Witherell al
ready was leaving, having hurredly
dcnned her cloak and hat. Mrs. War
ner assumed she left with the man in
hisautomObile.
City and county wide search that
night and since failed to find any trace
of the missing woman. and until the
communications demanding money for
her return, the disappearance was an
absolute mystery.
