GERMAN COAL HEADS
GUILTY AT COURT MARTIAL
CONTINUED from page ID
Outcome OF Trial Important

DUESSELDORF, Jan. "A (By The
Associated Press The trial of
Fritz Thyssen and the five other
Ruhr valley magnates at Mayence
today is regarded as the pivotal
point around which the entire Ruhr
situation ~revolves at present. 1t was
expected the Germans would seize
upon a severe sentence, as fur
nishtng the opportunity they have
been awaiting to fire the workers,
especially the railroad men, into an
enthusiasm, which up to now has
been lacking to make the railroad
strikes effective. On the other hand
9. lenient sentence, It was predicted
n German quarters, would only in
tensify the policy of stubborn re-
~sistance.
The Germans patiently intend to
bend every effort to enforce the
railroad strike. as if that were sue
cessful it would mean the closing
down of all the mines in the dis
trict within five days, according to
their forecast.
One thing they are considering is
the possibility of making the strike
effective only in the Cologne bridge
head. thus cutting off French COM
munication between Ruhr and
rance Dy way OF the railroads n
the Rhine. The functioning of the
immense railroad yards at Cologne,
in which practically all the lines
from the Ruhr converge, is abso-
lutely necessary, they say, to the
French lines of communication.
They expect no interference from
the British and look upon a strike
at Cologne as a favorable weapon to
drive a wedge between the British
and the French.
There were about 10000 workers
idle, out of the $4,000 in the Ruhr,
at noon today.

MEETING HELD
Local Students Heard Speak
ers Yesterday Afternoon
Enjoy Entertainment

A joint meeting and entertainment
OF the safety patrols of st. Stephens
and the Slovak schools was held yes
terday at the Laurie street school,
a which time Paul Steel, principal
OF the grammar school; Chief Niels
J T%onnesen and Joseph Seaman
were the principal speakers.
Joseph Seaman, the first speaker,
told of several instances in which
the boys were lacking in their duties.
but stated that he was well pleased
with the work accomplished so far.
Later in the afternoon Mr.. Steel,
replying to Mr.. Seaman's statements
said, THE boys patrol will be
perfect. a movement like this never
is. There will Away be a need of
adjustment at some Toint.'
Mr.. Steel continued, saying:
IF your patrol Says or falls to one
side, repair that side. If IL FANS
or says in the middle, repair the mid
ole. Any great on-going movement,
like the safety patrol, is nkel TO
sag 1t some po1nt. But this will not
hinder the work of the patrol in n
way"
Another matter brought out by
Mr. Steel at the meeting yesterday
was the fact that the patrol move
ment was not a movement going on
in two or three cities, but all over
the country. at has the same value
as any national movement" SAID
Dir. Steel.
s~rhe patrol movement is not a
eoilege movement or a high school
movement, taking in young men and
women, but an elementary move
ment worked out by boys and girls,
Mr.. Steele continued as he suggested
the two patrols enlisting the MEM
bership of a few girls into the pa
Moi.
Mr.. Steele complimented the boys
on their work so far, and reminded
them OF the fact that hundreds of
lives are in their are and under
their guidance.
Chief Tonnesen in a short talk
told the boys that he had seen their
work. and in his estimation the work
could not be surpassed. Officer

meeting, introducing the speakers.

LISTLESSNESS FEATURES
WEEKEND CURB TRADING
Improvement Manifested Despite Ir
regularity of Movements.
(By Thomson & McKinnon

NEW YORK, June 30.-The Curb
market closed a week of irregularity
In the short session today in listless
fashion. The trend was somewhat
steady because Of the lightness of
trading and the absence of any dis.
turbing news.
1t was quite apparent that the
market was not yet in a mood to ad
vance, sentiment being to await the
capitalization OF movements in other
markets.
On the whole the technical position
of the oils was considerably improved
Prices were off to what might be re
garded as stabilizng levels and prac
tically all adverse news has been dis
counted. Prices in the short session
today, while irregular and off frac
tionally, manifested improvement.
In the industrials, Gillette Safety
Razor showed an improvement of /
point for the day.
Stutz. in the motor group, was ur
u, rejecting impending transfer OF
the stock exchange and new plans for
the company.
