WATERWAY INTEREST INCREASES

Canal money for canal purposes, is a slogan that is being
taken up all over the state. Interest in the hearing to be held at
Trenton Monday afternoon is increasing. Waterway men are
coming from all sections to urge the state Legislature to use the
money that is received through the Morris canal settlement, for
the purchase of the right of way for the ship canal that it is
proposed to build from Morgan to Bordentown.
The fact that New Jerseys good faith is pledged to buy
the right of way across the state, a survey of which has already
been made, makes all the more logical the proposition to use this
Norris canal money for this purpose. There is a division of opin
ion as to what the money shall be used for. Naturally, there are
any number Of things that might be done with it. But, after
all canal money for canal purposes is the most reasonable, anC
tina fact Is going to be impressed upon the legislature mos

OCEAN CITY'S NEW HOTEL

The second campaign for subscrip-
tions for Ocean City's beach front
hotel, now in course of construction,
will be started within a short time,
it is stated, and it behooves all who
a possibly do so to %unloosen their
~purse-strings and financially assist in
the work. This is an enterprise Ocean
City has been talking and clamoring
for during the last ten or fifteen years.
Now it is assuming tangible shape,
and more money than was at first es-
timated will be required. The people
and friends of this resort got back of
the proposition at it's inception last
summer, and within a few days more
than the sum required or asked at that
time was subscribed. There must be
no hating or quibbling at this stage
of the game, and there won't be, of
course. A hotel of the character of
the Flanders will be an asset that
cannot be measured in dollars and
cents, however important to some
people this aspect may be. A house
like this, under the management of a
trained and prominent hotel man, such
as J.. Howard Slocum, will prove Of
inestimable value to the resort from
innumerable angles.-Ocean City

CONSUMPTION OF WATER IN NEW
JERSEY

Figures compiled by the Water Re-
sources Branch of the State Depart
ment of Conservation and Develop
ment show that the average daily
consumption of water per capita
throughout the state is gradually de-
~creasing. During 1921 the average
daily consumption per person was 100
gallons. With a population of about
2,950,000, the total daily supply re-
quired was therefore about 321 $4,000
gallons. The average per capita con-
sumption for 1920 was ia gallons per
day, while for 1918 the allowance was
III gallons per day. In commenting
on this fact, H. It. Critchlow, hydrau-
lie engineer of the State Department
of Conservation and Development
said: This apparent decrease in the
quantity of water consumed per per-
son cannot be traced either to a de-
cline in the popularity of the bathtub
or a decreased use of water for drink
ing purposes. 1t is due mainly to the
increased use of meters on water sup
ply systems which tend to prevent
waste.-Issued by the Department of
Conservation and Development of New
Jersey.

DREMIER POINCARE formally noti-
L fed Germany of Frances inten-
tons on Wednesday, and at 4:45
O'Clock Thursday morning the advance
guard of the French occupationary
forces entered Essen. Everything had
been prepared for the movement and
cavalry, infantry, artillery, tanks and
aviation forces poured steadily across
the Rhine. In his note to Germany M.
Poincare said:
'"rhe French government declares
it has no thought of proceeding at this
moment with an operation of a mill
tary nature nor occupation of a po-
litical character; 1t simply sends into
the Ruhr a mission of engineers and
f~unctionaries whose object is clearly
defined. It's duty is to S the re-
spect by Germany of the obligations
contained in the treaty of Versailles.
at sends into the Ruhr only those
troops necessary to safeguard the mis-
sion and guarantee the execution of
its mandate. No disarrangement and
no change, therefore, will be caused in
the normal life of the population,
which can continue at work in order
and in calm.
"The engineers and f~unctionaries Of
this mission will have full powers to
compel the administrative organs,
chambers of commerce and employers,
w%orkmen's, industrial, commercial,
ETC., bodies to communicate to them
all statistical or other information
they think 1t useful to demand.

Turkey agrees that England shall have
exclusive exploitation of the oil fields.
This, If true, removes the chief OBJ
stacle to peace. The Turks have
agreed that the Greek patriarch may
remain in Constantinople If he aban-
dons all political and administrative
activities. 1t has practically been de-
cided that some 100000 Moslems now
residing in the Hellenic peninsula shall
be removed to Turkey, and that about
100000 Christians now in Turkey shall
be taken to Greek territory. This COM
pulsory migration will entail great
'hardshlps, but the conferees believe it
is necessary to the maintenance of
peace in the Near East. The Greeks
in Constantinople and the Moslems in
western Thrace, 1t is understood, will
not be disturbed. Much time was
spent last week in trying to devise a
formula for judicial guarantees for
foreign residents in Turkey that would
be acceptable to the Turks.

ORANGE has made good her threat
L to occupy the Ruhr, the industrial
heart of Germany, for the purpose Of
enforcing the payment of ~reparations.
Belgium signifies her approval by send
ing a small body of troops across the
Rhine, and Italy gives moral support.
Great Britain stands aloof, %frowning-

another bloody war and menace Po-
land in case that country should at
tack Germany in support of her ally,
France.
Germany, indignant and ~sullen, has
declared a "moral war" on France and
Belgium; has adopted measures for
passive resistance in the occupied re-
gion, and has asserted officially that
the treaty of Versailles has been vio-
lated and she will make no further
payments so long as force is being en-
ployed against her.
That, briefly, Is the present situa-
ton, and before long the world will
find out whether the German, British
and American economists are right in
their predictions that the course adopt
ed by France is worse than futile and
is likely to result in her W financial
ruin; or whether the French are cor
rect in their belief that the method
they are pursuing is the only n left
that will compel Germany to fulfill her
promises and save France from bank
ruptcy.

Foreign Advertising Representative
THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCLA TON
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1923-01-19

HAVING informally advised France
IL against the steps she has taken,
the American administration has done
the only other thing it could dot
has ordered General Allen to bring
home at once his "army of occupa-
ton" from the Rhineland. President
Harding was asked to do this in a
resolution adopted by the senate al
most unanimously. There were only
1000 American troops left In Coblenz,
and their retention there or their re-
call was really only a matter of senti-
meht. The argument that if there was
trouble between France and Germany
the presence of the doughboys might
involve the United States in renewed
warfare was bunk. Most of the Ameri-
can soldiers there heard the recall Or
der with deep regret, for they have
been having q fine time in COblenz,
with good pay and plenty of beer and
wine, and have endeared themselves
to the people there. Moreover, their
post in the Rhineland, according to
General Pershing, has been an incom-
parable training school. However,
they must now come home to harder
work and aridity. The transport st.
Mihiel has gone to bring the boys back.
COVIET RUSSIA'S reaction to the
" news from western Europe is in
.teresting. The official press declares
that if war does not follow, Frances
action will eventually lead to more
conflicts, drowning humanity in blood
and running what remains of European
civilization after the World war"
Which sounds queer coming from a
gang of Bolsheviki who have drowned
their own country in blood and
brought it to the verge of utter ruin. =,
AS for Russia's intentions, here is
what Trotzky, minister of war, said
recently: "When France invades the
Ruhr, Frances ally, Poland, may de-
eide to march with her to crush Ger
many. If such is the case, l doubt
that Russia will refrain from taking
part" Bolshevik interest in Germany
is based on the belief of the Russians
that Germany will be the next COM
munist state.

peace in the Near East. The Greeks
in Constantinople and the Moslems in
western Thrace, 1t is understood, will
not be disturbed. Much time was
spent last week in trying to devise a
formula for judicial guarantees for
foreign residents in Turkey that would
be acceptable to the Turks.
CENATOR REED of Missouri is
~ making himself very prominent of
late. His was the resolution calling
for the recall Of the American troops
from Germany, and he followed it by
urging that complete severance from
European entanglements'' be achieved
by the recall of Roland w. Boyden,
u unofficial member of the repara-
lions commission. On Wednesday
Reed came forward again with a Wig
orous speech in support of his resolu-
ton requesting the President to open
negotiations with the British and
French governments looking to the
acquisition by the United States of
the British and French West Indies.
I'VE are getting u troops cut Of
Europe" said Senator Reed. LET us
hope that we are getting ourselves
out of European entanglements and
European disputes and problems. I
think this an exceedingly appropriate
time to take a preliminary step look
ing toward the getting of foreign ma
tions out of American waters and the
removal of the guns of foreign nations
from possessions where they com
mand the passages of the sea which
are vital to the commercial welfare of
our country and doubly vital in case
of hOStilities."
London correspondents say there Is
to believe the British govern
ment might seriously consider such a
transaction provided the white popula-
ton of the islands approved.
CTANLEY BALDWIN and Montagu
~ G. Norman, Britain's debt refund
ing commissioners, have given the
American commissioners solemn as
that Great Britain intends to
pay every penny of her debt to the
United States, and also have submit
ted the facts and figures on which
they base their plea for more liberal
terms than were fixed by congress
full payment in % years at not less
thans4H per CEN interest. 1t now APP
pears almost certain that this request
will be granted. The American COM
mission will soon make a recommended
ton to the President, who will submit
it to congress for approval or disap-
prevail. Mr.. Harding is convinced
that the funding of the debts Of any
country to the United States
Is impossible without a modification of
restrictions in the law creating the
de%bt-funding commission" according
to a statement from the White House.
Such a modification would mean the
granting of easier terms.

1.-THE personnel of the German adj
ministration and the representatives
of Industrial and commercial bodies
must, under pain of severe punish
ment, put themselves at their entire
disposition for the accomplishment Of
their work"
In the course of his note the pre-
mier said "the French government
counts upon the good will of the Ger
man government and upon that Of all
authorities" but this of course was
merely a diplomatic phrase. AS a mat
ter of fact the Germans announced
that every difficulty possible would be
placed in the way of the French en-
gineers. The coal syndicate led the
way by removing it's headquarters and
all It's documents to Hamburg. The
chambers Of of Essen and
all other Ruhr towns followed suit by
moving away. At this writing the at
tltude of the union workers in the dis
trict Is uncertain, except that they de-
cided to put on a brief strike of pro-
test. If they refuse to get out coal
and to operate the factories, France is
prepared to carry on with French
workmen.
Berlin's first response to the French
action was the recall of the German
ambassador to France and the German
minister to Belgium, and 1t was be-
lieved complete severance Of diplO-
matte relations would follow. Chan
cellor Cuno called the premiers Of all
the German states to a conference,
and President Ebert proclaimed Sun
day as a national day of mourning.
For the first time in several years Ger
many presents practically a united
front to its adversaries. The nation
alists and socialists, even in Bavaria,
have adopted a common policy of max
ing the Frehch position in the Ruhr
unproductive and untenabIe. This
unifcation may go far toward frus-
trating the French plans.
