The greatest of | these rifts in the United States, so ‘ar as known, extends along the | roast ranges of California for a dis- tance of six hundred miles.

Deep In Study For same years now, the Carnegie nstitutfon has been deep in the f itudy of. earthquakes, and only re- ntly Organized the advisory com- [mittee in seismology, calling on the cooperation of many other scientists to aid.in the research. Its activities have regulted in the discovery” of many f@tts of practical importance fto mankind in this connection.

Vashington, Jan. 27. —- Coloney George Harvey, journalist-politician- diplomat, who -has been a hous guest at the White House during his stay in Washington, is a stickler for the proprieties. Not once during his Washington sojourn did the colonel forget that, as United States ambassador to the Court of St. James, he must move sedately, speak: sonorously and ob- serve alwavs the duties and dignities of his high position. Wherefore, whenever Harvey wish- ed to confer with Secretary of State Hughes, he did not simply put on hie hat and stroll across the narrow street that separates the White House from the State Department. Instead, the White House Pierce- Arrow was summoned. Into it stepped the dignified diplomat, top- hatted, frack-codted, horn-spectacled. Congressman Julius Kahn, chair- man of the House Military, Affairs Committee, hails from California where they speak a picturesquely emphatic language. Secretary of War Weeks comes from Massachusetts, where long cul- ture shas softened the form of ex- pression. Speaking of the European’ situa- tion the other day Kahn told a news- paper man if he read the signs aright there would be “hell popping” over there soon. Seeking cabinet confirmation for what promised to be a hot story, iv the secretary of war would only in- dorse the opinion of the committee chairman, one of the men hot-footed it to Weeks. “How about it?” he asked Weeks, after quoting Kahn. “Mr. Kahn comes ‘hell from a ee Eee S.

Geum a WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE WORLD Week’s Chief Events Briefly Told By Charles P, Steyart ' NEA Staff Writer As might have been expected, tae \ Franco-German trouble ig getting | around to a point now where Euop- ean diplomats re beginning to hint | that the whole thing could be fixed up if the United States woud can- cel a lot of the war debts due to her from the Old World powers. | At any rate, dispatches from} across the Atlantic are saying “re- paration experts” are working on a plan to settle the, entire question— on the supposition that America forgives England half of what the latter owes to ner—that is, that she wipes out a couple of billion dollars in obligations. This kind of talk starts so natur- ally as almost to hint that the Ruhr invasion may have, been staged to some extent“with a view to scar- ing the United States into making financial concessions, as the only | means of averting another world! conflict. Will America Agree? But will tae United States fall for such a program? <It doesn’t seem very likely. Americans have been pretty balky | hitherto whenever it has been sug- gested that it would be a good idea for them to give up any or all of their war claims. By a curious coincidence there was a.Britisn mission, headed by Chancellor of the Exchequer Stan- ley Baldwin, in Washington, discuss- ing the question of war debts, just when the Ruhr invasion occurred.” This mission has gone home now. The negotiations are said not to have broken down. On the contrary, it's understood the British commis- sioners, having found out how Americans feel about the indebted- edness matter, returned to London to talk it over with their own gov- ernment. * 6 « Now or Never for France If, by any possibility, the French really did think their Ruhr venture would prompt the United States to make financial sacrifices and the United States doesn’t do it, the in- dications are that France has under- taken a pretty serious contract. For in that case France positive- ly MUST get her money out of the Germans by her present method, or the Germans will fairly wells have proved that they aren't’ ABLE to | warned, it is said, pay it, and then France NEVER will get anything. So they’ve got to go ahead. The French government hasn’t said it will go as.far as Berlin, if neces- sary, but individual Frenchmen in ‘nigh government posts have said so. 2 Effort To Obtain Coal The French occupation of . Ger- man territoyy now covers the entire region whigh-the Versailles treaty. permits them to enter and there were some signs that already they might have gone farther than that but for England and American and perhaps Italian disapproval. They have ,“requisitioned,” they .call it, considerable coal as als | ready dug, but steered -clear of the word “confiscation”, having been that it would create a bad impression in the Unit- ed States and Great Britain. They have made sdme arrests of German industrial leaders and Aeld {them as “political prisoners.” The German owners, refusing to proceed with production, the French began taking possession of mines, but this started a strike. It re- mains to be seen how the invaders will deal with this difficulty. Taey show a disposition to treat the workers gently. Germany Protests Again The German government contin- ues to protest. It’s protested ‘again to the United States, but still with no prospect of getting even an answer. It’s said to have a “confidential mision” in England, trying to secure intervention. The English govern- ment is keeping as quict as tae American, but Hugo Stinnes is re- ported to have obtained a $10,000,- 000 credit in London to buy coal, now that his Ruhr supply’s cut off, to keep his factories going. If this is true, while it isn’t the same thing as English government action, it’s a pretty strong card Yor te Germans. Italy's said to be working on a Franco-German compromige _ plan. She certainly is very unenthusiastic over what France has done. Bavaria Threatens Trouble The masses of Germans are not raising much commotion, consider- ing how much trouble they're in. There have been a few smail clashes with the French and two or three killings, byt nothing to com- pare with what’ often happens in connection, for instance, with a big strike in tais or any other country. But there's some %#lk of a Ba- varian secession from Germany’ and 200,000 Bavarian National Socialists are reported under arms. These so- cialists, by the way, as their namé doesn’t imply, are’ conservatives, not to say reactionaries, maybe even royalists. : Also there are hints at the forma- tion of a Rhincfand republic, or sev- eral republics. The Frenca are re- ported encouraging it, liking the idea of some smal] “buffer states” between France and Germany. All Afraid of Russia The wresting of Memel, on the Lithuanian frontier, from the small French force which was holding it, doesn’t seem to have much to do with the,Ruhr situation. It’s pretty clear that this was the work of Lithuanian _filibusters. | Germans may have helped, but that doesn’t matter so muca. What does matter is whether or not the Russians were behind it. eee Turks In’ Ugly M News dispatches haye it that France and Italy are exerting pres- sure on England to prevent the Eftg- lish from dtiving the Turks to ex- tremes in taei® argument at Lav- sarine over the Near Eastern ques- tion. The chances are that not. much pressure is needed. Tis would-be a mighty poor time to get the Turks started and undoubtedly England thinks so. The Turks will go to war véry easily. If they do, they'll ask help from Russia and probably they'll get it. Everybody's afraid of Rugsia. Plenty Of Strife Brewing There's trouble along the fron- tiers between the Bulgarians and the Jugoslavs, between the Bulgar- ians and.the Rumanians, and be- tween the RumaMians and the Jugo- slavs and the“Hungarians. But it isn’t a circumstance to waat would happen if the English and the Turks should get to fighting, and Greece and Rumania should at- tack Turkey,/and Bulgaria attacked Rumania, and Jugoslavia attacked Rumania, and Hungary attacked Ru- |, BISMARCK.
