PAYS $500 FINE
FOR DECEPTION
JUDGE SMITH PUNISHES MAN
WHO USED FAKE EXCUSES
IN BOOZE CASE.

Woonsocket. June 5-"You may
fool jury, but you cannot fool this
court and get away with it,
This is what Judge Smith, of the
state circuit court said in effect to
Walter Moody, Sanborn county man
who had ben cited to appear before
him for contempt of court shortly af-
ter Moody had been freed by a jury
of the charge of making moonshine
liquor.
Judge Smith fined Moody 5000 on
the contempt charge and it was or
dered that il he defaulted in the pay
ment of the fine he should serve a
term of 10 days in Jail.
The contempt charge grew out OF
an affidavit filed by Moody last fall
in order to get continuance in the
liquor making charge. In this affi-
davit he set forth that his wife was
about to become a mother and that
1t was therefore necessary for him to
be at home.
1t developed at the term of court
just held that the baby was not born
until two or three months after the
affidavit was presented to the court
Judge Smith looked upon the affida
Wit as a means of purposely deceiv.
ing the court last fall when Mood,
asked for the continuance to the May
term Of court and the court accord
ingly felt 1t had been imposed upor
and that the deception merited the
$500 fine which now has been i'm
posed.

Germanys reparation notes issued to

the remainder Of the year, have been
discounted by a consortium of Swiss
banks at Az per cent According to
reliable information from Brussels, it
was intended at first to divide the notes
among English, American and Swiss
bidders, who originally asked a higher
percentage. The American bankers, more
over. were willing to accept only a small
portion of the total, at rate higher than
all the others. The English banks also
showed no great interest in liquidating
Germany's pledge. and when the Bel
gians saw there was a possibility that
they might be drawn into complications

cided to close the deal privately in

rangement is that il the Reichsbank fails

According to the Minister, no traces
OF the Industrial crisis OF last Decem-
ber and January now remain. Both
internal trade and foreign trade have
improved month by month since the
first OF the year, and even the impor-
tant problem of new capital has in part
been solved by the greater influx OF
foreign capital.
Only a few articles remain on the
export embargo list. These are chiefly
food items; their export is forbidden
in order to avoid depletion Of food and
seed stocks within the country. Since
the incorporation Of Polish Silesia the
export of coal has been permitted and
large quantities are being exported
monthly.
The Minister called attention 20 the
trade agreements that have been made
by Poland with many of the neighbor-
ing States as well as with France and
other Western European countries.

Berlin. Sept. 30.
Germany has dropped her passive at
titude about asking for membership in
the League Of Nations. and the press
to-day Is rampant with declarations that
acceptance of a seat would put the coun-
try's head in the allied moose.
Although Count Won Bernstorff has
made no public statement since lis re-
turn from Geneva, his arrival in Berlin
was again the signal for denunciation by
nearly all the press of his plan to per-
suade Germany to make application for
membership. The AHegenlcine Zeitun1
declared that it is plain now that the
moment Germany asks for membership
she admits responsibility for the war
and accepts the Versailles treaty.
The Frankfurter Zettumg criticizes the
Government for not coming out fat
footed with a statement that Germany
cannot become a member and thereby
make herself a prisoner of the Allies.

that any nation ought to have too
much self-respect to belong to this

London. Sept. 30.
Russia has made an offer that may
solve many political complexities in
the Near East. According to the
Moscow correspondent OF the North
ern News Agency, Mustapha Kemal
has accepted the Soviet offer to trans
port forces from Asia Minor to Thrace
in Russian steamships conveyed by
the Black Sea fleet, the crossing to
take place from the Anatolian coast
between Handy and Eregli and the
landing at Midia in Thrace.
This route would entirely avoid
either the neutral zone or the straits,
and while not satisfying Kemals
claim for Constantinople it would
avoid pressing the question Of capt.
tai until after he had not only re-
lieved the more immediate question OF
meeting the Greek army in Thrace
and protecting the Turks there, but
Of avoiding a clash with the Allies.
British officials. being unable to con-
firm the Northern News dispatch, re-
fused to comment on it and also on
what action the British fleet in the
Bosporus might take in the face Of
such movement. It is considered
likely however. that it would relieve
the pressure at Chanak and Ismid and
would smooth the way toward a con-
ference
Actual Russian participation might
also make It easier to admit Russia to
the final conference.
Ex-Premier Venizelos of Greece still
insists that he is here on private
business. though the foreign office ad-
mits that if he wants to see Lord Cur
Zon he will be received 'as an old
friend" by the British Government.
There is no disposition to disguise the
fact that he will find it difficult If not
impossible again to Commit Great
Britain to any policy that might be
characterized in any way as pro-Greek.
AS the British Government has prac-
tically assured Kemal that he will get
Thrace If he does not violate the neu-
tral zones It Is considered hardly likely
that even VeniZelos could persuade the
British to interfere with the Black Sea
movement which will complete the ac-
tual rout of the Greeks and will make
the allotment Of Thrace to the Turks
all the easier in the final settlement.
Great Britain's prime interest is in
keeping the straits free and putting
them under the supervision of the
League of Nations. While American

strange man. was worse to-day. Indi-
cations of gangrene have developed as
the result of a compound fracture of the

the room after Louis had left and fred
a shot before the woman. who was ir
delicate health, could escape. When SUR
rounded by excited hotel employees the
man turned the pistol on himself. He
probably will die.
