The French premier has an agree
ment with Premier Baldwin Of Great
Britain, whereby neither government
will premit the contents of the note
or the tenor Of negotiations now un-

channels to become known.
Premier Polncare, however, is dis
playing an anxiety to keep relations
with England on the friendliest pos
sible basis.
Consequently little is known re-
garding Frances attitude toward the
three proposals of the document which
are understood to be:
/. An impartial commission to dis
cover Germany's ability TO pay.
2. France and Belgium to withdraw
most of their troops from the Ruhr
to permit resumption Of German in
dustry.
8. Germany to cease passive resist

Dislike Is Revealed

Smouldering dislike between the
two dominant figures in Europe
during the last days Of Lloyd Georges
rule, was revealed in Poincare's
speech at Villers-Cotterets, in the
forest where Foch made his great

tide of war to victory.
This is the moment chosen by a
former premier OF an allied nation
TO establish between Germany and
France the most ubiquitous CON

amusing that we can simultaneously
restore our devastated area, and com

CHICKEN Thief BURNS UP
COOP FOLLOWING RAID

A chicken thief CLEANED up" III
Englishtown. Monmouth county last
night, but in the opinion of local
police who received a report of the
down county theft. the robber pulled
a "bone."
Not satisfied with taking between
$50 and IT'S white chickens from a
coup belonging to Thomas West
of Englishtown, the thief set fire
to the building and it burned to the
ground. The local authorities are
wondering whether the "chicken
nabber" is planning to give up his
trade. There is a possibility that
the only way he can stop snatching
chickens, is to destroy all chicken
coops.
Richard Petty, constable of Eng
lishtown, made the report to Lieu
tenant Calvin by phone this morn
ing. In this section whenever a
chicken theft is committed the rob-
ber at least leaves the building so
he can make call at later date.
