Allied Armies Are
Marching Into Germany
to Enforce Indemnity

Troops of French Belgians and
British have marched into Germany
and taken control OF the richest coal
properties and of important ports.
This is the. result of Germany's S
dallying about payment OF the indem-
nifty levied against her for war losses.
The London conference Monday de-
cided upon this course because Ger
many continued her evasive replies to
demands.
No resistance was made by Germans
to the advance of troops except an
appeal to the League of Nations. of
which Germany was not permitted to
become a member. The Allies mean
to enforce their demands.

Council Bluffs
Custer Hearing
Set for June Is
Efforts to Retire Aldermen
From City Council Will Be
Fought in District Court
They Allege Politics.

Custer proceedings against Lee
Evans and Charles Campbell. Coun-
Gil Bluffs aldermen indicted for con-
spiracy to solicit and accept brides.
will come up for trial in district court
June Is. Bonds OF $1,000 each have
been filed in the district court for
their appearance to face the criminal
charges, which carry penalty of
three years in the state penitentiary.
The custer proceedings arc
brought under the Cosson act, a
statute which Attorney General
Cosson induced the legislature 10
enact. 1t provides for the summary
removal from public office of any
man indicted for malfeasance in oil
fec, and the removal is permanent,
regardless of the outcome of the
criminal procedure.
John P. Tinley, attorney for the
two aldermen, yesterday issued 4
statement in which he alleged that
there is nothing to the charges but
mess of dirty politics, engendered
by discredited and discarded poll
ticians." He SAID his clients were
anxious to have the case conc to
trial as soon as possible and that
some startling testimony" would be
introduced in their behalf.
Tinley stated further that ''if Bob
Wallace had been reappointcd to the
water board there never would have
been anything done about this mat
ter" Mr.. Wallace, whose term on
the water board expired June /,
qualified Tinley's statement as
bunk" and trick to draw atten-
ton from his clients by attacking
someone else. He f1atly denied any
responsibility for the investigation.
In the indictments, Evans and
Campbell are specifically charged
with approaching half dozen diff
ferent men i'll as many different
business transactions between the
city and private firms or corporations
to solicit brides.

Poison Gas Is Latest
Protection Against
Robberiies Of Banks

Chicago, June 3.--Poison gas in
the newest weapon in the war
against crime, according to Prof. w.
Lee Lewis, who demonstrated de-
vice for the protection of bank
vaults at Northwestern university.
The device shown by Professor
Lewis, who was connected with the
chemical warfare service during the
war, depends for its effectiveness on
the breaking of three glass tubes
concealed behind the combination
lock by any violent attack upon the
vault door. The liquid contained
by the tubes produces dense
smoke intermixed with a noxious
irritating vapor which causes violent
coughing, sneez;ng and lachryma-
ton.
"If the first discharge does not
discourage the robber, reserve
supply is released automatically
within the vault, when the door is
opened" said Professor Lewis. Gas
masks do not effectively protect
against the mixture, as smoke passes
through the ordinary canister.
Moreover these vapors burn and ir-
ritate the skin unendurably."
