Rollers stands. What New Britain should do is beat the Steam Rollers Sunday, but in the meantime agree to play Bridgeport anywhere and for any amount. Call their bluff Put stop to their dickering Hold them to their word Insist on play ing And then BEAT THE STUF- ZINC OUT OF THEM..
 If New Britain beats the Steam Rollers Sunday, and the West Sides of Hartford beat the Bridgeporters then what will the situation be? New Britain will be in the saddle and will be in the same, or even stronger position than is Bridgeport today.
 The New Britain management should insist on playing Bridgeport on Sunday, December under any terms and should bind the bargain with an alright contract that even the elusive and clever Healey cannot slip out of.

GONFRONTED with a powerful
~ passive resistance" of the Ger
man government and the German coal
barons, the French last week found
that their organization for the exploita-
ton of the Ruhr basin needed enlarge
ment and strengthening and, in conse-
Quence, they slowed up a bit--but with
out any apparent diminution Of their
determination to get from the Germans
all that can be had.
Early in the week the Berlin govern
ment instructed the coal mine opera
tors of the Ruhr to refuse to deliver
any more coal to the French under
penalty of a years Imprisonment. The
operators therefore def1ed the demands
of the French economic commission
and ignored it's orders to attend con-
ferences. Some of them left the re-
gion. Immediately the French extend
ed their zone of occupation to include
the entire Ruhr valley, the troops adj
vancing on the north to the Lippe
river almost TO Hamm, on the south
to Unna and Witten and on the south
west to Dusseldorf. They met with no
real opposition anywhere though they
had to fire on a crowd in Bochum, kill
ing one man. Exasperated by the Off
ciaI attitude of the Germans, the
French threatened to arrest and court
martial the coal operators and to con-
fiscate the mines. And, too, there was
a lot Of con to Berlin" Not far from
Muenster $4,000 men of the German
reichswehr, or national police, were
said to be concentrated and for few
DAYS 1t looked as If there might be real
warfare.
Then the French commission tenn
porarily modified it's plans. It an
nounced that for the present the mines
would not be confscated, but all coal
already mined would be seized and di-
verted to France and the recaIcitrant
operators would be tried by court-mar-
tiaI, but not arrested. The state for
ests along the left bank of the Rhine
also were seized and will be worked to
produce Preparations. Every coal car
and barge in the Ruhr was comman-
deered and Germany now can get no
German coal except some of an inferior
quality that is produced in Upper sile-
STA.
So far as the workers in the occupied
region are concerned, they appear to
be apathetic. Most of them are com
munfsts and they say they have been
exploited by the German industrialist
magnates and that the change of mas
ters neither hurts nor helps them,
They still insist that the capitalists
are the ones who should pay the repa-
rations.

MUCH space and many large head

out to be of minor Importance. When
the allies undertook to remake the map
Of central Europe they accepted the
suggestion of Woodrow Wilson and
made of the seaport of Mcneil and
some adjacent territory temporarily

League of Nations. Tt was claimed by
both Lithuania and East Prussia, be-

the Lithuanian peasants living in this
zone, several thousands in number,
armed themselves and marched to the
city of Mcneil, which they occupied,
the small French garrison being unable
to offer resistance. The ''Little Lithu-

themselves, announced they were in re-
volt, not against the League of Ma

on them. Several French warships
were at once dispatched to Mcneil and
the allied council of ambassadors de-

establish a provisional inter-allied gov

British, French and Italians. Lithua-
MIA, France, Russia and Germany were
each blamed for the insurrectfon by
some of the others, Germany being es-
pecially vehement in its charge that it
