HEAVIER FINES

Suggested AS Means To
Better Enforcement of

ENCOURAGEMENT
WAS EXPRESSED
After Conference Of Pres.
Harding With IA
Governors

Washington, d. G., Dec. lo.--Gen-
eral encouragement as to the prospects
of meeting present prohibition en-
forcement problems, through closer CO..
operation between the federal and
state authorities and an earnest APP
peal for reverence Of the law was felt
to-day by administration officials as
a result of President Harding's con-
ference on the subject Of state Cover
nors.
Among the IA state executives, who
discussed the subject informally with
the president and administration off
cials directly interested at White
House luncheon conference yesterday,
there appeared to be An almost unani-
nous opinion that the way to inn
provement In the enforcement situa-
ton lay not in relaxation Of the pres
ent enforcement statute but rather in
more rigid execution of its terms.
More severe fines and prison sentences
for violations, it was said to have
been held, would assist prohibition
officials in their work, while more
careful selection Of prohibition person
mel and education of the public to the
necessity of law reverence were among
other informal" suggestions made.

caught in a rock slide on the brink of

waters of the Fraser river below, while
members of section gang stood on

padding his way to a shallow spot in

Edwards, employed by the British

PREMlER'S PLAN FOR lMMEDi-
ATE CONVEYING OF PARLIA-
MENT MEETS OPPOSITION.
MORATORIUM REFUSED
FRENCH MINISTRY is SILENT ON
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN
MORATORIUM.

Rambouillet, France-Sitting under
the presidency of President Millerand
the French cabinet at it's session re-
Gently gave approval unanimously to
the attitude taken by Premier Poin-
care at the recent conference OF al
lied premiers in London and also dis
cussed the question Of q moratorium
for Germany.
On the matter of q moratorium IL
was decided to await the forthcoming
decision of the reparatiOns commits
sion, but plans were perfected regard
ing the measures to be adopted should
the decision of the commission fail to
agree with the French viewpoint.
Another decision arrived at was
that for the time being the govern
ment need not call an extraordinary
session Of Parliament so that the dep
uties and senators might be acquaint-
ed with the exact situation and the
program of the government Freedom
of action was reserved, however, to
consult with parliament in the event
that the plans adopted should require
legislative endorsement.
M. Poincare's plan for an immediate
converting of parliament developed OPP
position, of which President Millerand
was the leader, and finally was de-
feated
NJ. Poincare went to London with
the specific mandate to execute plan
which had been signed by all the mem
bers of the cabinet without the slight
est deviation. 1t is known that when
Poincare made some concessions to
David Lloyd Georges counter proposal
telegram was dispatched to him from
Rambouillet requesting the strict
carrying out of the specific plan
agreed upon.
All the ministers were in a sober
mood as they emerged from the large
sitting room of the Rambouillet pal
ace M. Poincare responded to the
cheering of the people who had assem-
bled at the Rambouillet station.
''This is the best republican opinion
I can get" he remarked.
What retaliatOry measures will be
taken by France should Germany be
declared in wilful default of her re-
parations obligations is being kept a
close secret. 1t appears that the
French ministers are of the opinion
that moratorium will be refused Ger
many, but that they have little hope
the reparations commission will de-
clare Germany in wilful default.
The Belgian vote on the reparations
commission is regarded as certain to
be against a moratorium, or else the
Belgian representative will abstain
from voting on the proposal. which
would be equivalent to negative vote.
But similar abstention by the Bel
gian member on the French proposal
to declare Germany in wilful Sdefault,
would place France in the minority on
that question.

REV. w. K. MARSHALL KILLED
BY AUTOMOBILE.

Stepping in front of a speeding
automobile in street thick with
traffic, Rev. w. K. Marshall, at one
time pastor of jefferson Circuit. M.
E. Church, South, this county, was
instantly killed in Baltimore about
noon last Tuesday. The fatal ac-
cident occurred on North Charles
street, between Chase and Biddle
streets. Mr.. Marshall in attempt
ing to cross Charles street, near the
middle of the block, stepped from
behind an automobile parked along
the side walk directly in front of
car operated by Louis M. Steese, 10
years old, and in the employ of the
Reinhardt Motor Company of Balti-
more. Steese quickly swerved his
car to avoid striking the minister,
but failed to turn it far enough, the
mud guard striking him and knock
ing him down. Bystanders aided
Steese in placing him in his car in
which he was taken to a hospital.
An examination made at the hospit-
al disclosed he was dead with
fractured skull. Physicians said he
had probably been killed instantly.
AT the time of his death, Rev. Mr..
Marshall was rector of Sc. Barnabas
Episcopal Church at Sykesville, Md.
he was pastor on Jefferson Circuit,
this county about 1884 and '85, his
transfer to the ministry of the Epis-l
copal Church coming a few wears
later. His wife who was a daughter
OF the late John H. Strider of this
county, survives. Rev. Marshall was
!. native of Hampshire county, w.
va, and his remains were taken to
that community for burial.
