CRACK BANK, TAKE
VILLAGERS SAVINGS
Auto Bandits Get $4,000 and
War Bonds at ReedvilIe.
Blast Burns Building.
By STAFF CORRESPONDENT.

WARSAW, Va, Jan. 31.-Rob-
bers swooped down on the little fsh-
ing village Of Reedville, thirty
seven miles from here, and left
penniless practically every one Of
the 200 simple fsherfolk who live
there.
Speeding into the town by auto
mobile after the residents had gone
to bed, they cut the single telephone
wire leading to outside civilization.
Then they dynamited the vault of
the Commonwealth National Bank,
holding the life savings of the town.
They stole $4,000 in cash and
$4,000 additional in Liberty bonds,
bought by the fishermen in war days.
Ban kofficials said the loss was COW
cred by burglar insurance. ..
EXPLOSION STARTS FIRE.
The explosion set fire to the build
ing. This is the sole structure OF
any size in the village. In addition
to the bank, 1t houses also the office
of the United States Customs House,
and that of the commonwealth at
torney. The entire building was de-
rifed, still smoking-hot, dynamited
vault are all that remain.
While the building burned and the
town still slept. the robbers sped
away in their machine-necessaril
in the direction Of Fredericksburg-
for that is where the only passable
highway leads. They must have
passed through this town, but no
one heard them.
A fisheman resident of Reedville,
who lives perhaps two miles outside
the settlement, on the pike. says he
heard a machine passing his house
about o'clock this morning, but,
save for bit of grumbling about.

decent folks up" he gave the mat
ter no thought.
REGRETS HE DIDN'T SHOOT.
He wishes bitterly today that he
had risen, got down his old Win
chester, and taken a shot at that car.
For his life savings, too, were in the
looted bank.
There is not the slightest clue to
the robbers. Not a resident remer-
bers seeing strangers In the settle
ment for weeks-and In a village Of
only 200 souls, a stranger would sure
ly be noted. even commented on, and
discussed.
But they must have been experts,
for no one heard the explosion. News

the victims by the blazing wrecksgs

BRITISH PLEASED WITH
TERMS FOR GERMANY

LONDON, Jan. 31.-Despite the
angry and derisive protests of the
German press against the sum of Ger
man indemnity fixed by the inter-al-
lied supreme council in Paris, Great
Britain does not anticipate trouble
from Germany over the question, it
was announced at the foreign office
this afternoon.
"They (the Germans) will accept
the position taken by the allies in due
course of time" said the announce
ment.
DECISION IS ATTACKED.
John Maynard Keynes, famous
British publicist, who wrote book
on the peace conference, criticizing
the Versailles treaty for it's harsh
ness, gave the International News
Service a sensational interview at
tacking the indemnity decision.
"The Paris proposals cannot be
taken seriously-any more than the
original treaty was taken seriously"
said KEYNES. "The Paris proposals
are simply another move in the game
in which the players, at any rate,
were taken in. The monster propa-
ganda has escaped from its authors,
and the most powerful and intelligent
statesmen of the world are compelled
by unacceptable forces to meet almost
daily to discuss detailed variations OF
the impossible. Surely the truth Will
have to come out some day"
