SEES SITUATION ACUTE.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
ROME, July 4.-Reviewing the for
eign situation at a cabinet council
today, Premier Mussolini. made par
ticular reference to the aggravation
of the Ruhr crisis in recent days,
saying that the effects Of the crisis
appeared to have reached an acute
stage, as shown by the European
exchanges. The Pope's effort in be-
half of Europe and humanity had
failed to modify the situation. This
had been followed by Premier Poin
cares speech. which was accepted
unanimously by the French senate,
and a terrible act of sabotage at
Duisburg.
Diplomatic action, however, added
the premier. was continuing. Italy
was directly participating and would
not withdraw, provided efforts were
directed at a complete settlement on
the basis of the London memoran-
dunn. embodying consideration OF
reparations and interallied debts
jointly, granting an adequate mora
torium to Germany, fixing a definite
sum and a reasonable method of pay
ment, providing for serious economic
guarantees and abandonment by
France of the occupation of the Ruhr.
The italian government believed
that Germany had no interest in pro-
longing passive resistance, for she
could not pretend to be able to break
France, nor could she be under any
Illusion regarding the possibility Of
obtaining outside assistance.

without state prohibition law as the
result OF a decision by the state su-
preme court. handed down at Carson
City yesterday, declaring unconstItu-
tional the state dry law passed at the

of the title of the act to contents of 1t.
The majority opinion Of the court

is therefore fatally defective"

UNEARTH VAST
White Slave
ENTERP RISE
Especial to the Herald

BRUSSELS, Nov. 1.-The discovery Of
a vast White Slave Enterprise through
which more than 300 girls are reported
20 have been shipped to the United
Statcs has led to ar increased vigilance
on the part Of American immigration
authorities. whose representatives in
Antwerp, Belgian police say, have def
mite proof of the affair.
The principal in the plo; was named
Brown. who was president OF a girls
protection society in Berlin. The girls
were sent via Antwerp. Hamburg. and
Rotterdam TO the United States, where
they fell into the hands Of ccnfederatcs.
waen the plot was discoTcr.d through
complaints, Brown fled from Germany
lie Is reported TO have been q German
spy during the World War. aEd this is
thought ~ Belgian police u be a pos
sible reason that his arrest was not
requested by Germany. because OF the
possibility that he might make start
ling disclosures.
