their machinery to strengthen the me-

Their statement was made less than
two days after the double deaths near
Buer and evidently Was designed to
offset the reaction expected from the
world over the summary deaths. The
statement says, categorically that the
invaders have no desire to retain per-
manently any additional territory over
that granted them at Versailles and
that the allied soldiery will retire
from the occupied zone as fast as pay
ments are made on the indemnity
granted the allies by the treaty.

TRUE VISION

I rather deem to be
A vision
Of precision
That through clouds of care can see
The things not seen by you and

The light of love, the CLEAN of hope,
To ease the gloom of them that

And lead them out of their despair
Up to the heights immortal where
They touch blue skies
Beyong the reach of farther-seeing

4 i 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:
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 new move
ment instigated by German capitalists
expressing again the German govern
ments desire to pay the reparations as
fixed by the Versailles treaty 'as far
as Germany can go"
Taken chronologically the assassina-
lions come first. Two French officers,
NJ. Jolly, a 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
were thirty feet apart, when found,
FIVE bullet wounds being discovered in
the head of each of the victims.
NJ Maginot, minister Of war in the
French cabinet, addressing group of
French officers, gave Frances first re
action when he said, I'm our attitude
towards the population our soldiers
have animated sentiments Of humanity,
but such a crime cannot remain I'M
punished and it is only right to carry
with it terrible reprisals."
The mayor of Buer, hig assistant,
the chief Of police, and two prominent
citizens have 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 an unpleasant frame Of
mind. The deaths are laid at the door
Of the expelled German police by the
French but no grounds that they may
have for such 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 if the Germans are starting in on
the horrible Franc-tireur movement of
fifty years ago that resulted in terrible
reprisals by the German invaders.

L by German capitalists is variation
from history and is therefore to be
scrutinized with great care. In es-
sence it is said to formulate plans
whereby the entire structure of Ger
man industry will be placed in pawn
to foreign nations as the basis Of an
international loan which is to be used
to pay part Of the country's indemnity.
Underground reports from Switzer-
land say that the German movement
has proceeded to the extent that a
tender of the equivalent of ten billions
of collars in gold was made to French
emissary. This offer is the largest
that has ever been made and is con-
siderably higher than Chancellor
Cuno's tender at Paris, the rejection
of which was signalized by the occu-
ration Of the Ruhr Acceptance Of the
offer will unquestionably result in the
immediate retirement of the French
from the invaded district, as soon as
satisfactory guarantees have been
made.
AS the French have taken one leaf
out Of Bismarck's book by. occupying
territory, they will not act hastily
in consenting to a reduction of the

Science

Recently the close study Of glands
became noteworthy in the medical
profession. Many Of the results ex-
pected of various gland operations
have been far below expectations,
but the general study Of the subject
seems to prove that the chief organs
in the problem of prolonging human
existence are the ductless glands.
Very little is known about glands,
but il is certain that they are of vast
Importance. Operations have been per
formed on rats in Vienna, stimulating
the interstitial gland and giving a

renewed life. Even failing brain and
mental faculties were revived. These
results, of course, need further testing
to see whether they apply to other
animals besides rats. DIR. Evans, Uni
