Cre,U From Wrecked Schooner

Through the night the coast guard
stood by on the wintry shore, fire
which they kindled as sign OF en-
couragement to the ship-wrecked
mariners serving also TO keep them
warm.
This morning Capt. Bohdin headed
his hearties out again and this time
they pushed their dory through the
surf and reaced the stricken
schooner. C7ambertng aboard was
difficult. as the Roberts was covered
with ice. Capt. Bohdin said that
when he and his men had broken
through the ice to get to the cabin
door. he found Capt. William Kelson
of St John and his six men inside.
They were almost frozen.
The Roberts men were taken off
with some difficulty. as the schooner
was being beaten constantly by the
seas, but were landed without in
jury to any. They were at the coast
ment for frost bites

BERLIN. March e.-Germany is
putting out feelers to discover
whether now, following the steady
Improvement OF the German mark
abroad. there Is a better chance for
raising an international loan.
Finance Minister IIermes Is work
ing on new plans which are intended
10 convince foreign financial circles
that Germany does not offer such
bad investment opportunities after
all.
Conversation With Banker.
A few days ago the following con-
between Herr Hermes and a leading
English banker:
Hermes: What are the objections
Of Great Britain and the United
States to giving a reasonable loan at
a reasonable interest, so that We can
satisfy France temporarily, but
straighten out our own financial trou-
bIes?"
English Banker: "The situation
has changed very little since the
Cannes conference year ago, whom
the financial interests OF the world
would not consider loaning money to
Germany SO long as her printing
presses kept on turning out hundreds
of millions-I believe that 1t is bill
lions now-of paper marks weekly.
no sound banker in the world could
possibly regard Germany as safe
investment while the world was being
swamped with German paper marks
having no security back OF them"
Pledges stopping Presses.
Hermes: But we are prepared to
stop the printing presses the minute We
get an International loan"
Banker: But how can Germany ex-
plain her present manipulations on the
money market? She still keeps tho
printing going day and night and at
the same time she is buying UP marks
abroad. The mark Is going up and has
been fairly stable despite the adverse
situation IN the Ruhr region But does
Germany really need to keep the
presses going just now and until she
gets the International loan she is hoping
for? Foreign bankers cannot quite un-
derstand Germany's present policy in
this respect"
What reply Herr Hermes made could
not be learned By the correspondent,
but the whole conversation Is said to
have made a deep impression on the
finance minister.

BRITISH. RESENTFUI,
By the ARsociated Press.

LONDON. March 9.--The outcry
raised by British merchants IN CO.
logne against the Franco-Belgian
gathers strength daily. The CHIEF
complaint is that British trade with
Germany Is being suangled and is
almost at standstill.
In Cologne has renewed its protests
to the London government against
what 1t regards as an attempt to
blockade the zone. 1t seems, how
ever. that there are also is some re-
French and Belgian troops in com
pletely surrounding the British
bridgehead, which has made it i'm
possible for the English to move
eastward without obtaining permits
reports that the relations between
these posts and tho British are mono
100 friendly.
withdrawal Talk Revived
Some Of the newspapers have
revived the discussion of the possible
withdrawal of Gen. Godley's troops.
It is said that the German population
in the Cologne district believes this
step to be imminent.
on the other hand, the Cologne cor
respondent of the Daily Mall, which
is practically the only London news
paper supporting the French, says
that German propagandists are seek-
ing to create dissensions between
the British and the Ruhr allies. He
asserts that the British traders are
OVERRIDING their complaints.
Gen. Godleys business in London
10 said to be in no way confined to
the question OF railroads. The Tele-
graphs diplomatic expert writes: "A
most momentous development has oc-
ourred in connection with the nego-
tiations between Gen. Cooley and
Gen. Payot regarding the use Of the
railways" but the writer does not
divulge the nature OF the develop
ment.
Meanwhile. it IS understood that an
active interchange OF views is pro-
ceeding among the British ministeries
of war, foreign affairs and trade with
regard to the tangled situation. It IL
learned authoritatively that verbal
representation has been made to
France through diplomatic channels.
pointing out the dificulties forced
upon the British authorities in the
Rhineland. Some reports say that the
London government has made a for
NAL protest on legal grounds against
the occupation of territory between
the Rhine bridgeheads.
