FRANCE IS
VICTOR IN
GERMANY
Official Declaration Ends
Passive Resistance in
Ruhr.
By CARL D. GROAT

United Press StGf Correspondent
BERLIN, Sept. 26.-The end
Of Germany's passive resistance
ITO Franco-Belgian occupation of
the Ruhr was proclaimed official
ly'today.
The proclamation declared the
government will not sign any
agreement tearing away any
portion of the nation from the
Reich.
The end of resistance came
after nine months. It was Ger
many's admission she has lost
the "war after the war" and has
again been brought to her knees
by France.
The Stresemann government, it
was indicated, will attempt to save
its face by a complete but dignifed
admission of capitulation.
There will be no whining. The
government feels the German people
have fought an honorable battle and
lost. They now must accept what
ever consequences are in store for
them.
Cost S5,0O0,O00 Weekly
With resistance costing upward of
$4,000, 900 r week and the mark so
valueless quotations ION it had been
stopped by many banks, the govern
ment had no other choice, but sur
render.
The population seemed to take the
drst news of defeat alphabetically.
mSchooled to obey, the people accept ed
he loss of their postwar fight against
France as merely another chapter in
the sequence of events which has car
ried Germany from her proud posi-
ton of 1914 to her present place as
the "sickest country Of Europe"
People Demoralized
AS resistance ceased, reports from
the Ruhr were not encouraging. Nine
months Of fighting without arms has
demoralized the once Woodworking
people Of the great industrial region.
Proof Of this state the government
admitted, is to be found on every cor
{ ner in the Ruhr territory The admin.
istration's liberal hand which poured
money lavishly into the Ruhr has
turned many of the workers into para
sites
The Ruhr has lost its sense Of
morals

LONDON, March, 20.-For the las six months England has been under 1 the shadow of a war cloud, but i Is an interesting fact that the na tion seems to have become immune to war scares.
 The Lloyd George Governmen l played it's finale with war setting the locale being the Near East.
 The peace and tranquility" Gov ernment of Bonar Law came into power under the shadow of tht same war clouds undispersed.
 Then along came the Ruhr inva sion, with its possibilities of war. Rumors of mobilization along the Russo-Polish borders, Algania rev olutions, little Entente bickerings anG the ever-present Irish troubles al reeked of possible wars.
 Truly these last six months would have been tense and exciting months in America. In England they have been just six months, with the En glish people Carrying on.'
 English people seem to have be come impervious to "war scares." Il takes a pretty strong blow to upset the stock market, and even the most blatant newspaper posters fail tt cause commotion in the streets. When the Near East war threat came to crisis during the Lloyc George regime it was on Saturday afternoon. London went on its week end holiday as usual, and newspa pers based their headlines on foot ball results.
 Princess Mary's baby had little ol no difficulty in driving the Ruhr in vasion story off the front pages
 Will England go in?" the Amer ican asks the Englishman, when discussing the possibilities of wal resulting from the Ruhr invasion.
 "Oh, I don't know!" comes the la comic reply. But have you ever been bunkered on the fourth hole at Deal?"
 The English just won't take I'll mors of war seriously any more There is no doubt that they donr want war, and they won't have wal unless the Government wills it Then they will join up just as they did in 1914 and take it as a matte1 of course. Perhaps it is happ, faculty the English have-this i'm perviousness to wars and rumors o wars.

 Carl Hyson, an American, seems to be a sort of fly in the ointment of the London County Council. The London County Council is striving to check the growth of carabets with stirling restrictions. It constantly changes it's rules and regulations, with the consequent result that no cabaret producer knows just what part of his performance will be al lowed as a permanent feature. Fly son came to England from America and is now the liveliest of the cab- aret producers. He bobs up with a new idea every time the London County Council kills out one of his feature acts. At present he is stag ing a nightly production at the Midnight Follies," with chorus of three The London Ciunty Ciuncil limited the number of performers, but Hyson went ahead with a chor- us of three. Incidentally, Helen Macdonald, formerly of "Ziegfeld's Follies," is one of Hyson's latest London discoveries.
