Princess Sentenced
on Treason Charges
lRv Associated Pressl

Leipsic-Princess Marguerite Won
Hopenlohe-O oehringen was convicted
today of completely in high treason
and perjury for her part in the escape
of Captain Ehrhardt, commander Of the
"Iron Brigade" during the Kapp
Putsvh of 1920. She was sentenced to
six months Imprisonment.
The Princess, who observed her
twenty-ninth birthday in jail last
Saturday while awaiting trial, gave
refuge to Captain Ehrhardt before his
arrest last December. As Ehrhardt is
accused Of high treason for his part in
the Kapp Pusch, the charge of COM
plicity against the Princess was based
on her act in giving him domicle.
The perjury charge arose from her
denial that she knew the former naval
commander when it was shown in
court, he was at the time living in her
home near Munich. Erhardt escaped
from the prison about ten davs ago
and still is at large.

UNCERTAINTY RESULTS
IN YOUTHS SHOOTING
Young Man Shoots and Wounds Self
When He Sees His Fiancee
Riding With a Rival.

Kansas City, Mo.-The uncertainty
of a woman's mind on her love af-
fairs, resulted in Boyd Meyer, 81,
shooting and seriously wounding him
self at midnight, when he saw his
former fiancee riding with rival.
Meyer had been keeping company
with Miss "Ted" Lawrence for nearly
a year. They had been engaged to
marry and the date for the ceremony
set on several occasions, but before
the marriage could be performed, the
girl changed her mind.
They visited Meyers parents in
Carthage, Mo-, on several occasions
and discussed the proposed marriage
with them. In March a license was
obtained, b It again the girl wavered
and finally tilted him.
Last night Meyer called for Miss
Lawrence, but she refused to accom-
pany him on ride. She went with B.
F. Kindall, in another automobile.
Meyer followed half a block behind.
AS Kindall turned onto a boule-
ward he heard a shot. He believed
Meyer was shooting at him and rushed
to police station. Patrolmen found
Meyer leaning over the wheel of his
running automobile, probably fatally
wounded.
"The woman made me do it, Meyer
said before lapsing into unconscious
ness.

letes from all nations of the globe are
going to the French Olympics and ar
rangements have been made to seat
100000 spectators.
Fifty-four nations will take part in
1873 events.
It may be the greatest athletic car
nival in the history of the world, thou
sands of times greater than when the
Greeks used to climb over the noun
tain passes in the spring, taking weeks,
to attend the first games on Mount
Olympus.
A tennis stadium is being built, a
village is being constructed to house
the athletes, nautical stadium for
the rowing and sailing races on the
Seine, range for long distance shoot
ing, an arena for boxing, fencing and
wrestling, and fields and stands for
the rugby football matches.
The track is the largest in the world
and made of red scoria, formed in two
parallel lines $50 metres long.
Work of the French committee has
been greatly hampered by lack of mon
ey. The chamber of deputies cut the
appropriation in half, but still the
work has gone on and it is very prob
able that all the projects will be sue
cessfully completed.

Regents See No Apprehen-

ure of Legislation.
SUM OF MONEY IN SIGHT
Normals to Continue on ApprO-
priatiOns as Made Before and
Governor Promises Aid.
(By Associated Press

Madison, Wis-Confronted with q
shortage of funds estimated by its
secretary to amount to $1,000,o00 for
the coming year, the state board OF
normal regents at its meeting today
voted to continue in force the opera
ton of Wisconsin's nine normal schools
on the basis Of the appropriation al
lowed for the year 1929.
Failure of the 1923 legislature to
grant an appropriation for the biennum
forced the board to consider a policy
to be followed in spending the
S1,3O0,0O0. available for the coming
school year. Action was taken to bring
the whole situation before Governor
Blaine in order that he may deter
mine whether a special session of the
legislature is to be needed to assure
operation of the schools.
Clough Gates, regent from Superior,
quoted the governor as advising him
that the normal schools should oper-
ate as in the past until an emergency
arose When that time came, Governor
Blaine is said to have indicated, he
would take action to relieve the
situation.
To assure normal school teachers
that they will retain their tenure and
continue to be employed under old
rules, Regent Gates introduced a reso-
luton instructing the educational COM
mittee at the next meeting of the
board "to bring in report recon-
mending which of the rules governing
contract relations with teachersy sus-
pended at a former board meeting may
be imm ediatley re-enacted, it being the
desire of the board to re-enact all of
such rules as may legally be upheld
No Loss in Forces.
The resolution by Mr.. Gates set out
that cit now seems feasible to con-
tinue in full number the teaching
positions at all the schools and further
to carry out most of contract rules,
with the teachers"
A resolution introduced by Miss
Lutte Stearns, Milwaukee, if adopted
will give the incoming president of
the Milwaukee Normal school authority
to re-organize departments in that in
stitution, and make changes in the
teaching staff. This resolution was
referred to committee to be acted up
on probably at the afternoon meeting.
Normal school regents indicated at
the meeting that they had little appre-
hension about their ability to obtain
sufficient funds to assure continued
operation of the institutions, despite
the failure of the legislature to al
low their appropriations. They ex-
pressed the opinion that Governor
Blaine through call for special
session or through the emergency
board, would be able to- take care of
all actual needs.
The business committee was in
structed to work out policy to be
followed in spending available funds,
and for obtaining additional money
when emergency arises due to shortage.

CABINET APPROVES
POINCAIRE'S ACTIONS
Say Counter Proposition to British
Note viii Be Submitted to the
French Cabinet Today.
By Webb Miller
lited Press Staff Correspondent

United Press SCaI1 correspondence
Paris. - Recommendations for a
counter proposition to the British note
to Germany were to be submitted to
the French cabinet today by Premier
Poincare.
Second in Importance only to this
was a report to the ministers by M. lie
Troquer, minister of public works,
who returned from inspection of the
Ruhr, to the effect that German re-
sistance is weakening and will collapse
eventually.
Although official proceedings still
remained locked in great secrecy, the
interference that Poincare and his
aides had found the British draft in
acceptable, just as the press and un-
official spokesman have predicted.
The counter proposal which will be
sent to London by way of opening in
ter-alIied pour parlers on the subject
of reparations, is understood to con-
tain French suggestions for modifica-
ton of the British note.
Those of the government who in
sist on a firm Ruhr policy and no con-
cessions to British suggestion that
French and Belgian troops withdraw
found NJ lie Troquer's report pow
erful argument in their favor. The
minister has understood to be con-
WINGED heavy pressure is wearing down
resistance.
While the morning papers are ex-
tremely guarded in their comments,
pursuant to hte governments request,
majority intimate France cannot do
otherwise than disapprove. the draft.
Pertinex, writing in the Echo de
Paris, says:
"France cannot let it be said that
occupation of the Ruhr has proved a
failure because such an assertion IS
contrary to the facts. Our English
friends too evidently are inclined to
saw sit is useless to continue longer IN
the Ruhr. Your policy has condemned
you"
The cabinet met shortly before noon
and Poincare first outlined the French
positions in new relations with Bel
gium on the subject of joint attl-
tude towards Preparations. The cabl-
net approved the premier's actions.

ATTENDANCE AT HIGH
SCHOOLS INCREASES
Number of Students Enrolled in the
High Schools Increased 81 Per
Cent in the Last Decade.
(By Associated Pr-ss)

Madison, Wis-What is becoming of
the boy who formerly quit school gin
the seventh or eighth grade to go to
work in the shop or store?
The state department of education
reports that he is rapidly becoming ex-
tinct, basing it's statement on survey
of high school enrollments covering
the last ten years. This shows that
the number of students enrolled in
high schools has increased 81 per cent
in the last decade; that in 1912 there
were 40,012 high school students in
the state and that in 1922 the number
had increased to 72,423. The year
showing the biggest increase was 1922,
the last covered by the survey, amount
ing to % per cent. The number of
students increased steadily from year
to year and in no year was there a
falling off in high school enrolment.
The increase doubtless was due in
some cases to the state increase in
population which approximated 100000
in the last decade.
The survey shows that not only has
the net enrolment increased, but also
that the ratio of average attendance
to the enrolment has made steady
increase in the last decade. "
The number og high school teachers
has kept exact pace with the increase
in students, the survey shows. The
rate of increase in teachers is pre-
cisely that of students, 81 per cent,
the number leaping from 2,041 in 1912
to 3,705 in 1922.
Thasa fo11res IN teachers tend to
refute the statement advanced during
the recent legislature, that there is a
super-abundance of teachers in the
state, the department says. The teach
ing force has only kept pace with the
rapidly increasing enrolment, it points
out.
