INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. August IL
An international effort toward world
peace on the part of allied world war
veterans will be urged by America n
Legion officials. headed by National
Commander Alvin Owsley. who sails
tomorrow from New York to attend
the Brussels conference Of the Inter
allied Veterans Federation, it was an
nounced at legion national headquar-
ters here today. The convention will
be held September 1 TO 8. and the
whole of the delegations time other
than actual attendance at the meeting
will be occupied by official visits in
England, Belgium and France.
The purpose of the organization
with which the American veterans are
affiliated. is primarily for relief and
care of war veterans. Resulting from
this, a quest for solution OF interna =
tional difficulties. leading to world
peace. has become a prime conSidera
tion. according to the legion'S an
nouncement. At the convention held
in New orleans in 1922, simultaneous
ly with that of the American Legion,
the delegates voiced principles de-
claring for a world peace i'll a mani

One OF the important clauses in the
manifesto was a declaration for the
establishment of a world court" to

The American delegation will pre-
sent a complete agenda to the con-
vention. Col. H. Nelson Jackson of
Burlington, VT, vice president Of the
international organization and chair
man of the legion's committee, has
supervised the collection of the ma

the practicability OF the program. and
almost without exception, the condi-
tions generally were approved. legion

The expression received from the
late President Harding was made
public as follows:
Il have read with great interest
and quite general approval the pol
icies set forth in the manifesto. / do
not subscribe to unconditional agree
ment in every detail. but as a general
enunciation of principle and purposes,
the manifesto lays down a very
wholesome program. which gives
great promise Of promoting peace.

ticable in a half century to come to
have the United States fittingly rep

who can speak for those who par

PARIS. August 1.-THE movement
in the Rhineland looking to the es-
tahlishment of a Rhineland republic
is beginning to be looked upon Sc
riously in France since the three
factions of the separatists have
shown a disposition of getting to-
gether. Government officials here.
however. are reluctant TO discuss the
question.
The Quai d'Orsay has long doubted
whether the masses of the people in
the Rhineland were behind DIR. Hans
Dorten and his lieutenants. but the
news received here that all three
groups had united on common pro-
gram created great interest in official
circles.
Plan to Issue Money.
The appeal of the Rhinelanders for
the issuance of special Rhineland
money viii probably receive no OFF,
cial answer, as the French govern
ment is apparently determined to
avoid being compromised by any
movement that might be regarded in
Germany as subversive. The Ques-
ton of Rhineland money is connected

and manner of its issuance viii de-

issuance at the moment it becomes
necessary. but il is said this will be
done regardless of the separatists'
appeal.
Considerable interest was aroused

Observers See Chance for Berlin
Farley With Poinoare.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, August 17-If DR.. Gustav
Stresemann, the new chancellor
actually is seeking to get in touch
with the French premier, NJ. Poincare,
he very likely will find an "encourag-
ing atmosphere" for informal pour
parlers awaiting him, is the opinion
of the political leaders here
These leaders assert that the path
to the French premier already has
been made tolerably passible for DR.
Stresemann through the signaling
back and forth" between groups of
French and German unofficial person
ages, who, nevertheless. are not
wholly without authority or prestige.
1t is taken for granted in reichstag
circles that the German industrialists
far from diScouraging the new chan
cellor from embarkfng on such an
enterprise, would not hesitate to
make use of their influence with the
French induStrialists and financial
leaders with the purpose of actively
furthering any German attempt which
aims to seek dignified way out OF
the Ruhr impasse for Germany
There has been a marked change
for the better in the character of the
news brought in from Paris by the
Berlin newspapers in the past forty
eight hours and the instantaneous
psychological effect of this on the
popular mind has been to stimulate
belief in an early rift in the Ruhr
black clouds
Just how DR.. Stresemann purposes
to assume the initiative in the pres
ent deadlocked situation is not be-
ing revealed, although there is an
impression he may attempt to ap-
proach it through the medium of pri-
vate emissarieS selected from among
the Ruhr industrialists, who are
viewed as being the best situated
persons to inaugurate overtures
which later might be given a more
formal character.

FOOD RUSHED TO RUHR.
500 Carloads Cross Frontier to
Stave Off Famine.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DUESSELDORF, August IL In
creased efforts to relieve the food
shortage in the occupied area were
revealed today by the announcement
that 500 car loads of foodstuffs had
entered the Ruhr valley yesterday
from unoccupied Germany. Hereto
fore the daily shipments have never
exceeded 500 cars.
The efforts at amelioration have
come none too soon, because of food
riots. the pillaging of stores and the
stealing of potatoes.
French Seize Marks.
A dispatch from Coblenz to the local
German newspapers says the French
have seized 697,000,0 100000 marks in
local money from the printing office
at Lutzel. suburb of Coblenz.
The French in Essen have seized
14.000,0 100000 marks from the Essen
branch of the Reichsbank, which they
occupied few days ago.
The occupation authorities have con-
hscated s,2oO,o00.o00 marks from the
Reichsbank premises at Limburg.
There is much unrest among the
workers at Gross-Gerau, near Darn
stadt, and Russelsheim, in the same
district. Many of the men are with
out work. The German police have
arrested the members of the commit
tee of revolutionary action" at Rus
selsheim.
The frontier between occupied and
unoccupied Germany, closed for a
week by order of the occupation au-
thorities because of various disturb
ances in Essen and the surrounding
district. will remain closed until the
end of the month. Under the original
order the closing should have termi-
mated last night but the occupation
authorities decided to extend the pen
