No Evacuation Until Ber-
lin Begins to Pay, Con-
ference Holds.
NO MEDIATION WANTED
Confiscated Money and
Merchandise Will Not
Be Returned.
By the Associated Press,


Paris, April 14.-The French and
Belgian governments decided today at
the conference of their ministers here
to reimburse themselves for the Ruhr
occupation expenses out of merchan-
disc and money seized from the Ger
mans. The two Allies again empha-
sized their decision TO evacuate the
Ruhr only as Germany pays.
Any balance left after the mill
tary and engineering expenses are pad
will be turned into the reparation
fund for the benefit OF all the AL
lies.
The merchandise seized will first all
be applied on orders already placed
with Germany under the reparations
schedule for German payment in kind,
the French and Belgians filling their
orders by compulsion il necessary.
To Keep Confiscated Money.
Once these Individual reparation or
ders are filled, the seized merchan-
disc will be sold under joint Franco
Belgian control, and the proceeds will
be used. with confiscated money, cash
obtained from fines and other receipts
to pay the expenses of the occupying
forces as prior claims, only the sur.
plus going to the reparations commits
sion.
The announcement that the two Al.
lies are 'steadfast in their decision to
leave the Ruhr only as Germany pays
came in the form Of reaffirmation OF
the resolution to that effect adopted
in Brussels last month.
Loucheur Riddle Ends.
This is regarded in the political
circles as finally disposing Of tn;
questions raised by the visit TO Lon
don of Louis Loucheur, former French
minister of reconstruction, and as
bringing the situation back to wnert
il was before the ex-minister came on
the scene with the consequent talk OF
new settlement plans.
In other words. the Allies, in the
light OF this declaration. are stand
ing firmly on the treaty of Versailles
and will carry on their operations in
the Ruhr on the theory that Germany
must pay according TO that treaty.
Germany Must Submit.
There is no present question, it ap
pears, of a new plan involving new
concessions TO Germany. and their
will be no such question, it is asserted
until Germany says she is willing tC
make an earnest effort to pay and be
gins TO pay.
The study of the question will 8,
on in reparation circles and amons
the government experts. There may
even be an exchange Of views be
tween the government on some angles
of the question. But officially the Al
lies will engage in no such negotia
tons, il is insisted. and will consent
to none either with Germany or will
the other Allies for Germany's bene
fit.
The announcement of the decision
regarding the Ruhr was made at tho
close of the conference.

TIN-CAN LIQUOR CARRIAGE
NOT BEST METHOD IN ROME

ROME, Dec. 18.-While the peo-
pie of this common wealth may
still continue to harp on the delays
in the judicial system, Bill Hub
bard of this city emphatically de-
MES that this state Of affairs ex-
lists. Strolling down the street ap-
parently content as to hia safety in
carrying a tin can, which might
have contained almost any fluid,
he passed the chief of police, who
prompted by intuition or some 9th
er motive, became curious and made
an examination finding the con-
tents to be just what his premoni-
ton told him, whiskey. Hubbard
was fined 500 with the alternative
of twelve months in the prison farm
at Miledgeyille and being without
the $100 he had no choice. Rome
also lost another citizen when Nav
Saylors convicted of vagrancy was
sentenced to like term with the
stipulation that the sentence would
be suspended provided she STAYED
out of Floyd county.
