Boost Given Free
Milk and Ice Fund
Two Out-State Organizations
in List of Donors on
Thursday.

Some persons declare our country
is over organized. They insist that
originality and individual thought Il
crushed by organization.
But the editor Of the Free Mix and
Ice Fund is inclined 10 believe that
organizations which exist permanent
iy justify their existence by the good
they do. Looking back over the
years the fund has been conducted
he discovers that hundreds OF organ
izations have contributed 10 the
fund.
Among Thursday contribu lions are
Union Aid society OF Fort Crook.
Neb.. and the S. s. S. auxiliary of
Lexington. Neb. These two organiza-
,ions are to be commended for their
ability 10 choose a cause where their
gifts viii go farthest IN doing the
good they desire.
Repetition lends emphasis. and day
after day it Is necessary 70 repeat that
the Free Milk and Ice fund is an in
stitution that not only alleviates ter
rible suffering, but often saves lives
The heat that beats down on city
pavements with such great intensity
during the long summer months
places the lives OF the tiny babies in
the poorer homes at a premium. One
contribution may save habys life;
il surely Will save a haby's health.
And it Will mean more to some dis
tracted mother than many times the
amount of the contribution can mean
to most Of us.
The list Of contributors 10 The
Omaha Bee's Free Milk and Ice Fund
is an honor roll. Your name should
be in the list this summer.

Paris, July e.-For the first time
since the delivery of Englands ques-
tionnaire the Ruhr and reparation
problem there appeared today in
French political circles a distinct
feeling Of optimism over outcome OF
the conversations between the two
countries.
The French interpret the very
lengthiness of the conversations as
inaugurating an eventful Franco
British understanding rather than the
pursuance of the separate lines Of
settlement with Germany.
Spirit of Cordialify.

tons. Lord Crew, the British am

more conciliatory attitude and a sin

cation Of this thesis.

French Fear

Mililarists See Creation Of
Buffer State as Protection
to Country-Cermans
Oppose Plan.
Hatred Is Intensified
BY MARK SULLIVAN.

Cologne, July 6.-Whatever the
French government might conclude
as an incident of negotiations with
Great Britain, most French military
leaders will not willingly see any
abandonment of their theory of the
Rhineland as a buffer state. Every
well-informed person will be surprised
il the French government abandons
this idea except in exchange for some
equally dependable military guaranty.
II the French government should
give 1t up the military men will, of
course. bow to that judgment. But
they will be sure to counsel the gov
ernment to stick to the Rhineland as
a buffer state. and in their hearts
will not cease to think that that is the
best assurance of Frances safety.
They wanted it at the time of the
peace conference and were induced to
giXe it up by America and by Britain's
rsHnfulfiled promise to safeguard
France against Germany. They want
it now because their military judg-
ment dictates it.
Tolerant of Independence.
Al most IlIlleS tie lutd VI all liut-
pendent Rhineland does not greatly
shock the Germans who live in that
territory. Local business men are toll
Grant OF it, The exploitation idea
goes up and down and just now it is
rather much in the air. The more in
tense opposition to it comes less from
the Rhineland itself than from the
rest of Germany. which would feel
outraged to see this territory taken
or depart of its own accord.
Locally, where the occupying arm
les have been for more than four
years. the public is on the best of
terms with them. especially with the
British Indeed. the money spent by
the British officers and men is count
ed as an asset by local tradesmen.
The American reader, of course, must
not confuse the Rhineland with the
Ruhr district, which the French went
into last January.
Resort to Barbarism.
In that territory the opposition to
the French occupying army grows
more intense every day. until now the
French are compelled to resort to a
policy of frightfulness not differing
much from that which the German
army followed during the war. and
which the French, then victims in
stead of the conqueror. denounced as
Among the people of the Ruhr
there is a notion that as a result of
pending negotiations, France may
cease to occupy the Ruhr immediate
ly. To an observer fresh from Paris,
that seems to be most improbable;
the sternness of the French occupy
ing army of the Ruhr tends to stiffen
all the German people, including those
living in the Rhneland. against the
thought OF the Rhineland as buffer
state and against everything else in
the nature of a compromise or ame-,
lioration.
For the moment the feeling of self
conscious national solidarity is very
strong. One plan recently discussed
here with only a vague idea Of wheth-
er it is possible. is that if the occu-
patton Of the Ruhr must continue,
there should be substituted for the
presence of the French alone a Dint
occupation. including the English
army, which has become SO well liked
where it is now.

When a man wants to go from

get there. But he needs only to
buy through railroad ticket, get
on the train, and go.
When a man wants to go from
London to Budapest, he must pass
through several countries, each
with a different language, to get
there. But he needs to get pass
