PARIS, January 27.-Almost every
body seems to be pursuing what you
call a pussy-footing policy. The in
tention is good. but the results are
not clear.
The French government in devel-
opinE the occupation OF the Ruhr, Is
showing an excess of caution, which
to me seems a psychological mistake.
When you are obliged-as the United
States and Great Britain both have
been in the past-to deal forcibly with
q party whose bad faith has been
demonstrated, you can't wear kid
gloves.
Our consideration for Germanys
feelings has even gone 50 far as to
attempt what has been called invisi-
BILE occupation. This is a bad method.
especially with Germany, which con-
siders herself cIeverer and stronger
than any others. In the present cir
cum stances we should proceed square
ly, firmly. Our extreme moderation
has not prevented Senator Borah pro-
claiming our action as an ofrense against
humanity, which shows that too many
precautions only lessen the advan-
tages from the operation without
eliminating the disadvantages.
French opinion Is beg inning TO con-
slider we have been too irresolute dur
ing the last two weeks. The policy
is too reminiscent of that which gre
vailed In the war before Clemenceau
took hold. To succeed a change is
necessary.
British at Sea.
The English do not seem to know
what they want. Bonar Law. on leav-
ing Poincare on January 8. said:
"T think you are mistaken, but II
events prove ] am mistaken, I'll be
delighted"
His attitude since has been friend
ly. but between his desire not to mako
extra difficulties for France and his
public disapproval Of the French plan
there is, Of necessity, certain friction
To cite a single example: Despite five
or six statements 1t is almost fmpos-
sfble here to tell what the British
governments attitude is to be in the
British zone of occupation in the
Rhineland. Paris tries to minimize
her occupation to avoid hurting Lon
don. while London attempts to mini
mize her abstention to avoid hurting
Paris. II is all touching, but not a
policy, and we are at the point where
policies must be made clearer

ergy. seems tarred with the same

LONDON, January 27.-I can never
recall such condition of dazed per-
pledty In the British public as that
which has been caused by tho astound-
ing developments in the Ruhr.
All instructed opinion is sensible of
the enornity Of the disaster to Euro
pean hopes. The momentary stimulus
to the coal trade does not conceal the
fact that the invasion disposes Of any
chance OF recovery for British trade. It
also demolishes any prospect Of peace
for Europe in this generation,
The financial district is filed with
apprehension and the political world Is
paralysed. The responsible press Is
unanimous in criticism Of the desperate
adventure. The only exception is the
bounding France on to any extrava-
gance. Northcliffe's brother succeeded
by inheritence to the Harnsworth press,
and ne aims to also succeed his brother
in tho rule Of the opinion OF the mob.

Newspaper dictation.
Fear Long War.
Events are too grave to permit in
cendiarism, The mob feeling Is waver-
ing. Organized labor Is solid behind
the government and the leaders Of all
political parties are united In growing
alarm and hostility over this unprece-
dented war on a disarmed nation.
No one any longer doubts that France
socks not reparations, but the perma-
nent disablement Of Germany as q pre-
lude to her political. dismemberment.
The views differ only on the possihili-
ties of success. No one doubts that It
dooms Europe to chronic war and dis.
.ruption for generations.

Door on Main Street.

Tentative plans are now being
made by the New Britain Trust com
pany to expand its first floor space in
Booths block on Main street and to
occupy the store now known as the
Outlet Millinery store.
William +. Atwood, president of
the bank, stated this morning that the
plans are tentative. however, and have
not been adopted. He expressed the
belief that the bank would take over
this store space which would greatly
enlarge its quarters on the first floor
of the building. The change will
probably not be made for at least a
month.
The millinery company now occu-
rying the store will move to a new
location farther south on Main street.

REMAINS CAPITAL OF MUSIC
Vienna, In All lts vIcissltudes, still
the Beloved Center. Tor the Real
Lovers Of Melody.

In starving Vienna the great hunger
Is still for music. After desperate
years Of struggle the capital on the
blue Danube remains musical center,
mecca for artistic pilgrims, says the
Living Age
Lovers Of music have regretfully
speculated as to what might be the, ultI-
mate fate of the city where Mozart,
Beethoven Brahms, Chuck and the
waltz kings OF opera composed their
masterpieces. DR.. julius Korngold, In
the London Morning Post, holds out
some hope.
The opera, under the combined III
rection OF Franz Schalk and Richard
Strauss Is giving. as a rule. the best
performances in the world. The only
drawback Is that the presence of
Strauss brings back the "star" SYSTEM
which had been banished from Vienna
for some decades. The opera is even
jestingly referred to as "Richard
Strauss theater."
Then, too, Frau Jenitza has left for
New York. and Lotte Lehman has
gone to Argentina. However, the
orchestra, under the direction of Felix
Weingartner, is unsurpassed and CON
tinues to give Its eight Philharmonic
midday concerts. And in It's magniti-
cent opera house Vienna has superb
setting for the performances.

WHY TERMED NAVAL STORES
Centuries Ago Turpentins and Rosiu
Were Imported Into England for
Ship Purposes Only.

"Navul stores," translated into ev.
eryday English. simply means turpen
tine and rosin.
The earliest mention Of the turpcn.
tine and rosin industry In the United
States Is found In an old manuscript
under date OF 1910, which inny be seen
in the public record office ut London.
1t Is entitled obstruction for suclie
things as are to be sente from vir.
ginia."
"Hard pitche." "Tarre." "Turpcn.
tine" and "lsozen." are also mentioned
In the "Booke OF the Commodities Of
Virginia." which, 1t IL presumed. was
issued about the same time.
Pitch and tar were the chief prod.
ucts Of the industry up to the middle
Of the Eighteenth century. This ex.
tensive use In the construction and
maintenance Of sailing vessels caused
them to be called naval stores." the
term which is now applied to the tur
peutine and rosin Industry. which has
supplanted the old-tline production Of
tar and pitch.
