ESSEN, Jan. 29.—(By The Associated Press.)—Pay day in the Ruhr brought labor to the fore as one of the most formidable obstacles in the path of the French and Bel gian experts who in their firm de. terminat‘on to exact reparation pay ments by force have already selzed some of the Prussian state mines and arrested several of the magnates. To the murmurings of discontent at the presence of French bayonets before several of the pit heads there Was arrested today, an atmosphere of. unrest and uncertainty as the workmen began to wonder where their pay envelopes were coming from. Delegates from the unions were in- formed last evening by the French that France was unwilling to assume responsibility for the wage payments. On the other hand Herren Krupp and Thyssen gave the workers to under stand that today’s envelopes would propably be thin. Five thousand working men in the state mines and ovens in the Reck linghause district protested last eve ning against ‘the confiscation of the properties there and the imprison ment of Herr Rochstein, the d rector. They framed an ultimatum to the French military authorities demand. ing the withdrawal of the soldiers and the release of Herr Rochstein within 24 hours. The latter request was refused point blank, whereupon the workers adopted a resolution which threatened a str’ke on Monday unless the troops. were withdrawn arid the director set free. Workers the Moeller -pits at Giadbach hi already ald down thelr tools and there were reports today that technical experts at other places had also quit work. The troops stationed at the Gladbach and Buer min seized terday #aid today to have been reinforced by Getachment of cavalry equipped with machine guns and elght howitzers.

Release of Dr. Schlutius, president of the state finance department, who was arrested at Duesseldorf, was also demanded. Five mine directors have been invited to appear this morning before General Fournier.

Oakes YYENNE, of the United States air mail was attempting “stunt” flying when he and William Acor, a mechanic, fell to death at the Cheyenne field Thursday afternoon, never will be known in- asmuch as death has muted the only lips that could give posi- n yes that the cause of the tragedy Was an effort to execute the perilous “Immelman turn’ while too viuse 10 the ground.

Suddenly a streamer of black smoke spurted from the alr- plane and the two loops followed !m- mediately.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—Routing all opposition, including the house leadership, the rivers and harbors bloc overrode both the budget estimate and the appropriations com- mittee and increased thr waterways item in the army bill from $37,000,000 to. $56,500,000. The vote was iaken after one of ‘the stormiest sessions of the present house. Unab'’e to agree on a time for debating the item, the house became impatient for a vote and the speak- ers, including Representative . Mon- dell, Republican leader, and Chair- man Madden of the appropriations committee were interrupted by de- mands for a vote from all gver the house. i The motion for the increase made by Chairman Dempsey of the rivers and harbors committee was adopted 172 to 44 after the bloo had forced the house to shut off debate. MARY PICKFORD SEENAT BEST “One of the most beautiful pictures ever screened,” is the unanimous ver- dict of crowds whch have taxed the capacity of the America at every per- formance of Mary Pickford in “Tess ef the Storm Country.” If you witnessed the old version of ‘Tess of the Storm Country” in which Mary Pickford and Harold Lockwood starred almost eight years ago, that's all the more reason why you should see the mcdern Tess. It’s more beau- tiful in stage setting, better acted, better filmed, and the scenes are more in harmony with the story. There's, just enough of pathos in the recreation of this popular story to soften the scenes, enough of comedy to releve the tenseness of many trying situations, and the teach- Inga in practical Christian ty impart- ed by Tess, the daughter of the lowly fisherman, carry with them a lesson that goes straight to the heart. of every one of the hundreds who saw America’s “Little Sweetheart” in her role last night. It is confidently predicted by most of the best versed critics that ths 1922 model of “Tess of the Storm Country” is going to be a popular ‘at- traction for decades to come, and that the future generations are sure to cherish the memory of -this great artist through her sterling histrionic work in this one product on, if for nothing else. If you didn’t go to the America last night. or today, make arrangements at once to attend one of the perform- ances inday or Monday. You'll be better for it, and you'll witness a plc- ture that will linger long in memory. pbsiacainar head lade “SERVANT IN THE HOUSE?
