CHICAGO, March 30.-Josepha BIazek and Rosa BIazek, the famous Siamese Twins, joined together by large iaament, passed away early this morning, Josepha's death occurred first, and her sister, after few gasps, followed in a few seconds. Their hearts beat practically as one.
 Physicians had declared that , in the event of the death of one, the other would die immediately.
 There was a good chance to save Rosa's life, the surgeons said, by an operation, seperating their bodies, but their brother, Frank BIazek, refused to permit it, he said, the Twins were as one, mentally and physically, and that the one remaining would be miserable and find life unendur- able.

France Powerful Enough to Act Alone, Ayers Du Bois, Enforcing Will Upon Germany.
BY BAYONET AND CANON
Open Threat Given by Preparations Chief in Warning to World of Army's Readiness.

PARIS, March 30. - France IS powerful enough to act alone, to en- force the execution of the Versailles Treaty with cannon and at the point of the bayonet," today declared Louis Du Bois, president of the Rep arations Commission, at largely attended luncheon of the Union of Commerce and Industry.
 This startling decuaration by M. Du Bois evoked a tremendous cheer ing. It was recognized as Frances answer to Germany's lament that she cannot meet the demand for the partial payment of several bil- lion gold marks.
 The determination of France to use force in the collection of repara- tions is believed by many here to be the real cause of the American re- fusal to have anything to do with the forthcoming economic conference of the Allied Ministers at Genoa.
 The French army is said to be stronger now than it ever has been in the history of the country.

Pershing and Harbord
 Declare Bill Sure to
 Undermine System of
 Army Preparedness. SERIOUS INJURY CERTAIN
Oregon Man Trying to Prevent Reduction of Navy by Pacifists in Act Now Pending.

WASHINGTON, March 30. Gen. eralz John J. Pershing and his Chief of staff, Major General Harbord. speaking before the National Press Club last night, jointly declared their belief that the bill just passed by the House of Representatives, limiting the Army to 115,OO0 enlisted men and 1000 officers, would work se- rious injury to the Nations military policy, and undermine and destroy the best system of preparedness the Nation ever had.
 The practical abolishment of pre- paredness, General Pershing said. would invite imposition and finally aggression on the part of other na- tions, and it would be an irreparable mistake It were best, he said, to follow the dictates of common-sense and the advice of George Washing ton-that in time of peace the na- tion should be prepared for unfore- seen emergencies.
 Representative McArthur of Ore gon, appealing to all Western Con- gressmen for support, today started a movement in the House to save the Navy from being scrapped by the proposed reduction of the enlisted personnel to 65,000 men. He will offer an amendment placing the min imum at S60O0.
 The preparedness advocates are be-
 ing opposed by the large paciflst group The former declare that the future, like the past is full of war dangers which only preparedness can avert or overcome, while the pacifists profess to see the dawn of universal reace, when the guns shall be beat en into plowshares and the swords into pruning hooks"
