Oriqin of Old Saying.

The saying, Good Wine Needs No
Bush," owes its origin to the ancient
custom of hanging out an ivy bush at
the doors Of taverns-probably in
honor Of Bacchus, to whom the ivy
was sacred-to inform travellers that
good cheer" might be found within.
Many references to this custom are
found in the old poets and dramatists.
In Lily's "Euphues" are these lines:
Things of greatest profit are set forth
with least price. Where wine Is neat,
there needeth no ivie-bush."

France FIRM AGAINST CUTTING

EXPERTS MUST FOLLOW treaty

PARTICIPATION U, s.
IN PROPOSED PROBE

Washington. Oct. 2S-(By A. P)-
On the face of Premier Poincares
remarks today or the the official
communique issued by the French
foreign office, it docs not appear that
the limitations France insists must
be placed upon the scope Of the pro-
posed inquiry by experts into Ger
many's capacity to pay rena~mtions
necessarily impedes PARTICIPATION of
American economic authorities in the
undertaking. 1t has been emphasized
repeatedly by spokesman of the
Washington government that such 4
commission ought not to have power
to bind any of the governments on
any point.
Presumably the allied powers will
feel that they cannot commit them
selves in advance to acceptance of
recommendations made by expert ad-
visors TO the reparations commission.
1t has been stated on authority here
that the chief hope of success in
solving the repara tons problem by
means of an advisory commission
would lie not in the method by which
it's recommendation were arrived
at but in the soundness of its con-
illusions.
In view of this feeling here, the
assertions of the French premier
that France could not agree to any
reduction Of Germany's reparations
obligations does not appear to place
an impossible barrier in the way of
! final adoption of the expert commits
sion plan. 1t is pointed out that if

Dusseldorf, Oct. 2S (By A. P.)-
Plundering and violence have sud-
denly become so general and men,
acing throughout the Ruhr that both
the French and German authorities
are beginning to realize that some
thing drastic mGBt be done to re-
move the economic causes immedi-
atcly
The pillaging of stores continued
last night, suburbs regardless of the
curfew law, and the mobs were so
rampant today that the Dusseldorf
police who have been diSarmed, dare
not enter the district to face the loot
erS, who carry modern rifles, pistols,
and hand grcnadcs.
Several were killed or wounded
overnight. The plundercrs emptied
a large liquor store in koelncrstraSSe
in the night.
The systematic pillaging of a large
sugar plant in the suburbs OF Film
germ began about noon. Early this
morning several hundred men broke
into the Jail at Geresheim, another
suburb, and released fourteen crimi-
nails. Similar instances of Iawless-
ness are reported in almost every
town in the Rhur.
The French superior delegate of
the Rhineland high commission, ac-
cording to a report from Trier. has
issued a formal order to the old town
officials that they must continue to
function under the new government,
as the Separatists have been recogni-
zed as the de facto administrators of
the town. and all attempts to change
the present form of government
would be depressed by arms.
French and Belgian troops contin-
ne to guard the public buildings in
all the towns where the Separatists
are installed. and the maintenance of
order has devolved largely upon
them in some cities. particularly
CoblcnZ. where the Green-caPped
Separatist police have been with
drawn entirely.
A republic has been proclaimed in
the villages of Kim. Nonsenger and
Sonderheim. in the Cob!cnz district.
