gotten those decades around the open
ing of the Nineteenth century when
Napoleon's name was used to Brighten
children to sleep, and when the menace
of the Little Corporal, standing on
French soil and gazing across at the
cliffs of Dover while he assembled a
host of fishing vessels to transport a
great invading army, laid heavy on an
England.
In spite of the terrible nature of the
wal waged by Germany since 1914
England can be relied upon to keep
Germany in the concert of nations as
an Offset to the power of France. She
has checkmated France already in sew
eral ways In the present imbroglio,
chiefly by selling coal to the Berlin
authorities to enable them to keep
afioat in spite of the shutdown of all
supplies from the invaded region.
Keeping in mind the great principle of
the British nation it is not difficult to
forecast the fact that, Germany will not
be stripped of any of It's Ruhr dis
trict, the life-blood of its manufacture

alton been allowed to stand without
anything else to occupy the public
mind 1t would have removed the Ruhr
controversy to the field of national
prejudice, given the Germans a splen-
did chance to float more propaganda
based OF their inability to control the
peoples of the occupied area, and
given he French an equal opportunity
to assail the Germans for injecting
active armed force, coupled with muir
ders into a situation that is regarded
by the allies as being more of a police
measure han a military one.
The French have show a desire to
confine the issue entirely to a com-
mercial plane. They assert plainly that
all they want is their money and that
they regret being forced to use their
army as a force of bill collectors.
Until the declaration by the two
premiers that they would %evacuate the
invaded territory as fast as payment
was made the world felt there was
the possibility that the Ruhr would
finally find itself in the same BOAT as
Alsace-Lorraine, a part of France.
A remarkable feature of the state
ment is that it stands exactly upon
the words and actions of that arch
enemy of France fifty-two years ago,
Bismarck.
History records that Bismarck. in
occupying France, asserted he would
retire with his army as fast as pay
ments on the indemnity were made.
The French peasantry of those days,
as will be remembered, emptied the
hidden corners of their cupboards and
inside Of three years paid over to the
T'eutonic warlords the enormous sum,
for that period of the worlds history.
Of five billions of francs. roughly ST.
OO0,0O0,OOO, besides territory.
France went through the same strain
hat Germany now is undergoing. A
vast portion Of its people absolutely
refused TO aid in the payment of the
indemnity and for two months the
Commune, the Reds of that time, ragged
throughout Paris. attacking constituted
authority while the German army sat
Idly by and watched the situation
clarity itself.
History appears to have repeated
itself, as 1t has a habit of doing, in the
present Franco-German dispute. Close
students are watching to see whether
the Commune will arise among the
Teutonic peoples; whether the Ger
man equivalent of the Franc-tireurs
will arise. as was indicated by the muir
ders of the two French officials and
whether the indemnity will be paid
finally.

II OPES FOR A PEACEFUL SET
IL Element Of the Franco-German
difficulties over the Ruhr occupation
loom brighter as a result of three out
standing events of the past few days 4:
the formal declaration of the French
and Belgian premiers that Imperialism
had no part in their plans the murder
of two French officials by some I'M
known persons in the occupied district
across the Rhine; and a new move
ment instigated by German capitalists
expressing again the German govern
nent's desire to pay the reparations as
fixed by the Versailles treaty "as far
~ Germany can 60"
Taken chronologlcally the assassina-
lions come first. Two French officers.
NJ. Jolly. n technician in charge Of the
railroad yards at Buer. and Lieutenant
Collins, the army officer In charge of
the station at that town, were done to
death on March 10. their bodies being
found in a road leading to Buer. They

The mayor of Buer, his assistant.

citizens nave been arrested and are
being held as hostages. The deaths
follow that OF one French soldier and
two Others wounded in the same dis
trict and this latest outbreak has put
the troops In al unpleasant frame of
mind. The deaths are laid at the o.
of the expelled German police by the
French but no grounds that they may
have for such a charge have been
cabled to this country. The underlying
thought in the minds of those who
are keeping track of events is to won
der II the Germans are starting In on
the horrible Franc-tlreur movement Of
hfty years ago that resulted in terrible
reprlsals by the German invaders.

7 ENIN AND TROTZKY ARE RE
IL ported near death by former Am
bassador Charles h. Crane and the
world is wondering what will happen
to present Russian politics with the
passing of either or both of these men,
who are unquestionably great in their
achievements. 10 matter how one
views their activities. The death of
Lenin would put the Soviet government
to its greatest test and II alone will
answer the question as to the depth to
which his bolsheyik teachings have
penetrated to the mass Of the people.
Government is seized or perpetuated
by three things by hereditary, by cleo
ton or by a coup d'etat. Lenin will
have no heirs, even If they would be
recognized by the soviet peoples, an I'M
thinkable thing; while the country has
no election machinery and n seizure by
the military is not considered likely.
II Is understood that a small coterie
OF Lenin's advisers. some eighty men,
have already apportioned their part In
the event that will succeed the die
tator's passing from power but the
world viii wonder whether the ex-
tremists or the Missionaries will be In
the majority when that event comes to
pass. TrotZky's Illness Is said To be
slight by others who have seer him
