Instead of thinking doughnut.
They're thinking bout the hole.
They eat the bit OF pastry,

But you'd think they'd eaten only hole
They look so very glum.
And so, with all Gods blessings
For body and for soul,
They quickly take the blessing
But talk about the hole.

|RUHREVACUATION IS BASIC ISSUE
Question May Be Settled By Private Inter-
 views
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, Aug. 1.-The repara- tions conference, has finally shaken itself down to the basic question of the Ruhr evacuation and the leaders are att tempting in private interviews to effect a settlement of this acute political prob lem which really is not on the agenda of the conference.
 r M. Herriot, the French premier had long interview today with Dr. Strese- mann, the German foreign minister, Chancellor Marx and Dr. Stresemann, called on M. Theunis, the Belgian pre- mier, and the leading German delegates also conferred with Ramsay MacDon- ald, the British prime minister.
 While M. Herriot is supposed to have returned from Paris with authority to agree to the Ruhr evacuation within eleven months, the question of when evacuation will begin and the details of it's execution, including the desire of the French and Belginns to keep their nationals on the railways must be set tied among the French, Belgians, Eng fish and Germans before the conference can proceed in definite way with the program for instituting the Dawes plan.
 Reports from all three committees of the conference have been agreed to in principle but the jurists are busy study ing and editing the protocols which are not yet in final form.
 The opinion now seems general in conference circles that the outcome will be definitely settled by Thursday or Friday and the majority opinion is de- cidedly optimistic respecting the result. The "big fourteen" met today to receive the report of the third committee which outlined how Germany will make pay ments in kind. There was much argu- ment in this committee about the Quan- tity of coal and coke Germany shall de- liver but an agreement was finally reached with the understanding that the matter shall be subject to arbitration. The "big IA" will meet again tomor- row morning and there is q chance that private interviews mRy have effected a settlement of the Ruhr evacuation prob lem by that time in such manner that the conference can act on the technical problems without standing under the shadow of political controversy be- tween the French and Germans over the district where the Krupps and other manufacturers of war supplies have their headquarters.

CHARGE COACHING.
 IN ACTRESS SUIT.
Attorneys Claim Miss Luther Instructed
 Movie Broker

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11.-Ann mood Monday, but toward the close of the days court sessions in her $1O0,000 suit against Jack +. White, her buoy ancy gave way to dejection.
 Cross-examination of one of her wit nesses, Ben Rothwell, motion picture broker, and booker, hinted at an ir- regularity in which the actress was charged directly with having instructed Rothwell few minutes before the aft ernoon session opened.
 Paul Schenck, attorney for White, asked Rothwell flatly, Did you not, five or ten minutes before this session opened, tell Miss Luther that you would say she had told you, in 1922, that she was under contract and could not accept any other picture work?"
 Rothwell denied the charge hOtly and Ann's fluffy hair bobbed excitedly as she registered indignation at the ac- cusation.
 Bringing in the name of Charles Jones, former Los Angeles chief of po- lice, Schenck asked Rothwell if he knew him. The witness answered "No."
 But didn't you state to Jones that you had tried to employ Miss Luther, but that no studio would have anything to do with her because she had no box office value?"
 Rothwell said he didn't know Jones and couldn't have spoken to him about anything.
 Didn't you tell Jones that Miss Luthers picture in New York had Topped Schenck demanded, ignoring RothwelPs reply.
 Again the witness repeated that he did not know Jones.
 Didn't you say that Miss Luther could never stand a case in court be- cause of the unravelling of her reputa- tion, and that the movies would be bet ter off without persons like her?"
 Rothwell answered 'No."
