French, shows the scope here OF
the Citroen calamity.
There is talk of the men going
back to work this month. There
is talk of continuing production
under the receivership.
There is talk of preserving the
big factory in western Paris ON
the Seine as an important indus
trial unit for French war pur-
poses.
Questions facing the Citroen
liquidators and creditors are: How
many men can actually count on
new and continuous employment?
How many cars can be put out
month, how much will their price
rise or fall?

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 12.-Seismo-
graphs, instruments whose normal
function is the measurement of dis

also can be used to detect local tilt
ings so slight as to escape the most
precise measurements by surveying
methods. At the meeting of the

CITROEN, as an industrialist,
~ was like a great athlete who
lacked-in the pinch-one vital
quality. The quality was timing.
He knew how to swing on the ball
like a Babe Ruth in his prime.
The trouble was, he swung too
late-or too early.
In boom times, the Citroen
plant was turning out the tidy
number of 700 cars a day.
With a humming plant, his
tendency toward prodigality ex-
pressed itself in big effort. He
tried to compete in America, in
England, in other lands outside
France.
He sent his cars through desert
and jungle, over the Himalayas,
across China, in big propaganda
tours. There was something
very American in his ideas of
spending money to make money.

London, Paris and Rome to bring
about an entente between France
and Germany.
Complete success means the
re-entry of Germany into the
League and the Arms Confer
ence. Once back in the fold,
Britain and Italy particularly
feel Germany's re-armament
can be watched and perhaps
regulated. At present only the
sky, or her pocketbook, is the
limit.
What happens tomorrow in the
Saar will have a bearing on all
this. Disorders would bring in
tervention by the international
army. If this army is unable to
cope with the situation, the
League might have to call on
French troops. And that would
almost surely lead to a Franco
German armed clash.
THERE seems good reason,
l. however, to expect that to-
morrow will pass off without an
explosion. Six weeks ago this
could not have been said. A
startling chance Tor the better
has taken place, for which the
French government and the
League of Nations share chief
credit.
Just when the clouds over the
Saar seemed blacklist, M. Laval,
one Of Europe's most determined
men of peace since Aristide
BRAND, got busy at Rome and
Geneva.
To forestall the probability of
bloodShed resulting from the use
of French troops by the League,
an international army was
brought into being. Britain, genu-
inely frightened by the fast
growing specter of war, quickly
agreed to supply 1900 troops.
Italy compiled with 1900 more,
and Holland and Sweden with
$50 each.
These neutrals will watch over
the voting tomorrow, assisted by
the regular police. AS the Saar
is approximately 95 per cent
German, the outcome is hardly
in doubt, despite a small but
bitter opposition.
THERE still remain, however,
Il grave financial difficulties.
The treaty put the Saar under
League mandate for IS years,
but gave the mines outright to
the French to make up for those
Germany destroyed in Northern
France. These mines we're to be
bought back by Germany, pro-
vided the Saarlanders voted that
way, but the price was payable
in gold. And Germany lacks the
gold.
Instead of sticking to the let
ter of the bond, France on Dec.
3 voluntarily agreed to accept
900 million francs about $780,
100000, 95 per cent of it in
paper francs, now legal tender in
the Saar. The rest, she would
take in coal.
M. Laval. astute, reserved, sim
pie, met the bellicose German
fuehrer more than half way. If
Herr Hitler will now go the rest
CT the distance, admittedly there
is an excellent chance that
France and Germany may short
ly bury the Ratchet.

HARTMAN HITS
COTTON POLICY

NEW YORK, April II U.S0.
Government policy in restricting
the export trade in cotton is de.
Structive and bound to cause
disaster, in the opinion of w.
Averill Hartman, administrative
officer of the MIRA and chairman
Of the board Of the Union Pacific
Railway.
Speaking today before 400 bust
ness executives at the luncheon
of the Traffic Club he said:
Zone can't help see disaster,
the way things are going now"
He added that the Govern
ment's policy of restricting cot
ton growth and export here Is
being taken advantage of by other
countries which are rushing to
grow cotton for the world market.
He added:
"The cotton problem is to
sell abroad the surplus we are
producing"
Mr.. Hartman said that this
country might profitably adopt
the British method of disposing
of its coal. This, he said. was to
place a fair price on domestic
coal and leave the export surplus
to be disposed of at what it
might bring.
