The Marvel of Tho Hour

The marvel Of the hour is radio,
bringing through the air, free to all
who receive it, news of the day,
knowledge and music.
To be interested in radio, to install
an equipment simple or complicated
is to align yourself with the mentally
elect-to equip yourself and your
household with a new hearing, reach
ing out miles into space, blazing a
fresh trail of knowledge and pleasure.
To those readers who are not now
Of the elect, it may be wise to recall
that the world changes quickly. A few
years ago, here and the e, a man own
ed his private carriage. Other men
walked, orused the street cars and the
railroads. Now millions Of Americans
have their automobiles, and other mil
lions will have them. Radios the auto
mobile Of the brain. The time is not far
distant when it will also be universal
when the radio set, bringing in the
news Of the last minute and the mu-
sic Of the greatest artists andsorches-
tras, will be as much a matter of
course III every house as the front
door.
To the young the radio set is Of
inestimable value, fostering interest
in science and in the wide outside
world. To the old it is the beginning
Of new interests and new pleasure.
In order to be helpful to those who
already possess radio sets, and es-
pecially to interest others in this new
est fieldlof education and pleasure,
The Inquirer publishes every week a
section which gives whatever is
current in practical and technical
craftsmanship.

from social duties and has continually
objected TO travel.

and that the fact of occupation under
international law automatically sub
stitutes a French administration for
the German to which the inhabitants
of the occupied areas become no longer
responsible. The committee on foreign
affairs of the chamber of deputies has
asked NJ. Poincare to explain to them
the Ruhr situation and the apparent
feebleness of the French in the face
of the determined German resistance.
NJ. Poincare refuses to do so for the
moment, saying that he will explain
later before the whole chamber.
French opinion seems firmer than
ever as regards the Ruhr occupation.
Reliable reports from the most distant
countrysides show that the peasants
are virtually all of the same mind,
namely, that "those fellows smashed up
everything and they will have to pay
With this unanimity of feeling among
the masses of the French people it is
difficult for any political party to base
its opposition TO NJ. Poincare on the
Ruhr occupation.

years ago when he eloped from his lit

Before the glowing fireplace in the

now makes a rude pallet of quilts on

the first interview since his marriage
at which his wife was not present.
Asked how long his wife would be gone
he replied: -. =.

POINCARE is TOO WEAK
In HANDLING GERMANS
Opinion Is That Steiner
Measures Should Be Used
Against Enemy.

Copyright. 1928.
Paris. Feb. 9.-French opinion of all
shades is renewing its criticisms of the
Poincare government. The majority Of
Frenchmen seem to consider that Pre-
mier Poincare has been too weak not
only with the Turks at Lausanne, but
especially with the Germans in the
Ruhr valley. There is a widespread
demand here for exercising henceforth
the most stringent measures against
Germans who commit acts of sabotage,
who excite disorders or refuse to obey
the French administration in the oc-
cupied zones.
1t is pointed out that the treaty of
Versailles authorizes the occupation
