THE open hearing in the atrocities
L and murders by masked mobs at
Morehouse, La, came to a close on
Thursday and indictments are expected
to follow. Before adjournment Of the
hearing Attorney General Coco made a
statement concerning the outrages in
the parish, charging the Ku Klux Khan
with responsibility for them.

mines, smelling works and postal serv-
ices to hold themselves at the disposal
of the French government.

DOLAND has assured the German
foreign Office that it is preserving
the strictest neutrality regarding the
Ruhr occupation, that it has no belli-
cose intentions and that a recent move
ment Of troops from the Lithuanian
frontier has no significance. Great
Britain seems somewhat at a loss on
what attitude to take. She has no in
tentfon Of abandoning her ally, but is
skeptical of Frances success. Some
public men and some newspapers there
are demanding that the British army
Of occupation be withdrawn, and it
was decided that a cabinet meeting
should be held to discuss this question.
Italy is still hoping that the whole
affair can be settled by mediation and
it was reported in Rome that Premier
Mussolini would ask the United States
to issue a call for a world conference.
Premier Branting of Sweden notified
France that he would suggest to the
League of Nations Mat it intervene,
at the meeting of the league council on
January 20. So far Germany has con-
sistently refused to take part in any
mediation parley 50 long as French
troops are in the Ruhr.
THAT the United States will inter-
l. fere in the embroglio in any way is
said in Washington to be quite i'm
probable, at least for the present. IN
der the situation that has now devel-
oped the administration believes that
if it does anything, it must do some
thing that will be helpful and not
harmful, and up to the present mo-
ment officials hold that there is no OPP
portunity for anything more than has
been done without making the situa-
ton worse.
If the United States should make a
gesture toward France, the French
would claim that the Germans had
thereby been stiffened in their resist
ance and if the Ruhr expedition fails,
they would blame the United States
for it's failure. On the other hand, if
the United States should assume a
course which the French could inter-
pref as encouragement the feeling of
evaporation in Germany would be
heightened. Either way no good would
be done and the United States would
be incapacitated for helpfulness in the
future.
