RUHR OCCUPATION VIOLATES TREATY, BRITAIN CONTENDS

upon which the allied policy depends for it's ultimate success.
 'If it be the case that the so-calieo massive resistance of Germany is the main obstacle that stands in the way of that consummation, and If its abandonment will be the first step towards a positive advance, his majesty's government is quite pre- pared to join their allies in pressing such a policy, as indeed they have all ready pressed it, upon the German n government. But if this plan is to be pursued with real hope of success, 1t would appear that two other condl- tions will require to be simultaneous ly satisfied. The first is that re- newed and serious attempt should be made to deal with the questions of reparations by determining, not the liability of Germany-for that has al- ready been laid doWn-but her capac- ity to pay. The second is that pro posals should be made for the res toration of the Ruhr to that condi- tion which will enable 1t to become an area of fruitful production, rather than one of industrial strife.
 New Calculations Needed.
 "As regards the first of these steps, it will be acknowledged that the reparation figure laid down in 1921 no longer corresponds to the realities of the situation. Fresh calculations must sooner or later be made. It is in the best interest of the allies that whatever figure be finally decided upon by them, 1t should be accepted by the German governpent as just and realizeable. Furthermore, the situation is likely not to grow better but to become worse with delay, A recurrence to procedure by ultima tums may indeed produce tardy and reluctant exploitation; but little sat isfaction will accrue if 1t fails to produce substantial deliveries either in cash or in kind.
 "As to the composition of such an inquiry, this is matter which should be determined by the allied govern ments in consultation. There should be no difficulty in agreeing upon a selection of competent persons enjoy ing their confidence as well as that of the public. Further, the advantage of American cooperation in this in quiry, whether in an official or in an unofficial capacity, scarcely requires emphasis and is confidently recom- mended by his majestys government to their allies"

MARKS BEING PRINTED BY MANY MILLIONS
Government Makes Every Conces- sion To Engravers And Printers

BERLIN, August 12.-The demand for the German paper mark in huge quantities occasioned by the recent big slump in the value, has caused the Reichsbank to increase the daily printing of the notes to 12,000,- 0O6.006.000 daily.
 Threat of general strike de- cided the government to make every concession to engravers and printers to maintain the continued printing of the mark.
 Owing to the mark note famine, exchange bureaus throughout Berlin closed. Shops refused to accept bank checks and some are begin ming to do business only in foreign currency. Big department stores are empty of buyers. Banks demand per cent premium tL cash foreign drafts and notes. Banks are even ap- pcdhng to big retailers to give them part of their mark reserves. Lowest premium is 10 per cent for large quantities of paper marks. while summer resort hotels collect 1000 per cent for checks.

DEPLORES LACK OF
 UNITY IF ACTION AGAINST GE ERNANY
Declares Cuno Government Was Leading Germany
 To Catastrophe


 STENAY, France, August 12.-(By Associated Press.) )-Disreg garding the Recommendation of David Lloyd George, the former British prime min ister, that he should not make speeches on Sundays or in places where war memories would be aroused. Premier Poincare today made two addresses to emphasize Frances unswerving determination not to change her policy toward Ger many.
 He delivered his first address this morning at Marville at the unveiling of a monument to military and civil victims of war. His address had been written before the last British note, although he had the document before him as he spoke.
 "Chancellor Cuno," said the speak CT, referring to the chancellor's re- cent address in the Reichstag, "un- doubtedly would not have used such senseless language if the allies had ben unanimous in showing him their will in ordering him not to revolt longer against the legitimate meas ures taken by Belgium and France" Says France Sure.
 The premier declared that the Ger man government was leading Ger many to a catastrophe. adding, I've are sure not only of our rights but our methods"
 We can only smile indulgently at Cuno's blundering," M. Poincare con- tinued. If he thinks Germany was not thoroughly beaten in the war; If he thinks Germany can violate with impunity the treaty she signed; if he thinks we are disposed to go on indefinitely without the separations she owes us; if she believes we will go out of the Ruhr before our claim is paid, then he is greatly mistakn. And if he does not believe all this, but only says it, it is his compatriots he hoodwinks and leads to ruin"
 NJ Poincare concluded by saying that Germany now, as in 1918 on the eve of her military downfall, was seeking to mislead opinion.
 Tt is not only necessary" he de- clared, mot to weaken, but to have the last word. It was not only the bravery of the allied armies that won the war, but the unshakable will of the nation. The whole nation has now the same will to win peace, and 1t will do so. Your dead demand it. and their demand will be granted" Wants No More Ground.
 In his afternoon address in Stem way, M. Poincare said that that part of the world influenced by Germany refused to believe France has no ul- terior motive in her present policy. But. he added, i've do not think of crushing anyone, nor we do not wish to take a single bit of ground that does not belong to us.'
 NJ. Poincare referred to the speech made Thursday by Dr. Stresemann, leader of the German peoples party in which he asserted that Germany did not hate France during the war and detested her now only because of the Ruhr occupation.
 What would the Germans have done if they had hated ps?" asked the premier We are not flaming hatred" the premier added. We proclaimed, on the contrary, after victory, that we were ready to for get. Rancor and vengeance are sen ttments that have no place on French soil. We wish only that our spirit of chivalry, our generosity, should not be abused"

 The farmers are beginning to wake up. They are demanding that Wash inGton do something that will en- able them to sell their grain.
 The American tariff prevents this country. and others, from selling goods in the United States With the proceeds of those goods, if they could be sold, it would be in Flu ropes interest to buy American food.
 IL :s not meant that wheat and corn and meat are not wanted by tns continent, but that the continent simply cannot pay for them. Ameri- can politicians, anxious to win the next election, must do something to help the farmers, and lower tariff is the first and most obvious assist ance the farmers can receive.
 Much more is needed, if America is to recover. than mere jugglings with tariffs. Hope for cooperation between the United States and the British Empire is based on the fact that our interests are alike.

 Need Trade Restoration.
 We need restoration of world trade and peace more than the Americans, but they need these things, too and their leaders are at last coming to realize that they can only get them by helping us to liquidate the war. It is yet too soon to prophecy as to what form American intervention will take when it comes. But that does not greatly matter.
 Washington will find London ready for teamwork that in the end will succeed. The time for secrecy has passed. MT. Baldwin knows thls, and an appeal to the people, if nee essary, will route the reactionaries of his own party who are seeking. through fear or for worse motives. to overthrow his policy.
