(By Associated Press.)


 Dusseldorf (By the Ass'd. Press)- Belgian patrols which took control Of the rural commune of Hamborn on Wednesday night, have been removed and this action on the part of the Allied command has tended to ease the situation at DuiSburg. Officials declared the patrols were thrown out merely to protect the town of Duis- burg but the advance of the Be1gians inspired belief on the part of the Ger mans that the Allied lines might be extended imm ediately. Assertion is made in official quarters that such a movement is not planned.
 Cooperation between the German security police here and Allied troops have been effective as a result of Ger at French headquarters yesterday and made formal apology for the refusal on the part of a German policeman to salute an Allied officer
 Essen, Germany.-In this center of the great industrial region of Ger many bitter hostility prevails against the allied plan for establishing a cus- toms frontier and taxing German ex- ports. The feeling is expressed chiefly against Lloyd George and the French authorities.
 The heads of the great industrial houses of Essen are outspoken in this, criticism. They say that already and that the prospects are that trade will stagnate. They declare that the. workmen will be the chief ones to suf- fer and that the entire Ruhr basin if not all Germany will be irreparablys damaged.

The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-03-12

The workers are pursuing their un- eventfu1 routine which was not inter rupted by the entrance Of Allied troops.
 A delegation of Union leaders call ed upon General Gaucher, in Dussel- dorf, on Friday and assured him that the workers are not hostile towards the troops occupying that city.
 The Uniohists said that it is the chief desire of the workers to re- main on good terms, with the troops, knowing then that they would not be disturbed or troubled.
 This was good news to the French commander who feared that an at tempt might be made to bring about a general strike to embarrass the Allies.
 Belgian troops left DusseIdorf for Duisburg during Friday. In N the meantime the French are searching the houses at Dusseldorf for firearms for they are determined to disarm the city completely despite the pres ent passive attitude of the people.
 The restrictions upon cafes and the movement of crowds in the streets have been lifted.

PERMIT To MAKE
WINE GIVEN To
BERRY GROWERS
Large Plant to Be Erected
in Louisiana to Use Up
the Surplus Crop of Straw
berries in the South.

Washington, March GA per-
ton to manufacture wine out OF
strawberries for beverage pur-
poses was issued tonight to the
Strawberry Growers association of
Louisiana by the bureau of internal
revenue. Provision is made that
no sugar shall be added to increase
the alcoholic content.
Bureau officials said that the
strawberry growers had appealed
to prohibition authorities for per-
mission TO set up a winery to care
for their surplus crop, estimated to
be worth about 100000. Under
the Nolstead act, 1t was explained.
It Is legal to establish wineries for
the manufacture of non beverage
products for sacramcntal purposes.
The association, 1t was said, plans
to erect in Louisiana large wine
manufacturing plant.
Whether the principle on which
the permit was issued would ap-
ply in other cases, officials coul1
not say, but it was suggested that
should a surplus of berries occur
in other states, the producers would
be entitled to an opportunity to
show whether there was danger of
heavy loss unless the establishment
of a winery was resorted to.
Such procedure, officials intimat-
cd, would not be confined to straw
berry producers, but would include
producers of other juicy berries and
might in the case of necessity cover
vegetables, such as beets and pos
sibly dandelions and elderberries.
