This elaborate military organization will consume more than she claims is due her through the alleged German default.” Chancellor Cuno said jhe believed that the Franco-Belglan-Ruhr army would soon show itself to be a highly {rrational and unproductive instru- ment, chiefly designed to spread con- fusion and destruction He referred at length to the annihiliating effects RUHE ELATED OVER NEAR EAST TANGLE | ESSEN, Feb. 1.By The Associ- ated Press.}—The Ruhr forgot its own | troubles last evening upon receipt of Lausanne dispatches from German sources announcing “the final break between England and France over the Near East question.’ “Cel im war between Britain and France screamed the headlines on one of the newspaper. extras. Great crowds gathered in front of the bu'le. tin boards in Essen and Duesseldorf to cheer the reports from Lausanne. For the first time in three weeks there was joy tn the Ruhr. The population had been waiting in front of the newspaper offices in the expectation that the French ult!- matum to Germany would be pub-|of the French: operations upon the shed. When a news of a break at| civil service administration, local food Lausanne was announced, the people] prices and the destructive influence were generally relieved and greeted the bulletins with tumultuous cheers Extra editions of the Westphalian Gazette and the Duesseldorf Tage- biatt were snapped up promptly at 100 marks a copy. Officers on duty at French head- quarters volunteered the information that no offic’ to a Franco. British break had been received from Paris and that the joy of the Ger- mans is\ likely to prove premature, “We wifi defeat the French,” was the cry heard again and again as patrols of soldiers dispersed the crowd. The population was in good humor and taunted the French sol- Gers without offering any resistance. “Be careful you don’t break your neck,” a German youth shouted to a French horseman as the latter’s| mount slipped on the wet pavement on the mark whtre Germany prac. tically has been eliminated as a buyer in the foreign markets Inasmuch as she is naturally incapacitated to pur- chase wheat, cotton, cepper and other essential commodities needed to keep her industries in motion and her workers employed. If.the French advance into the Rubr is to be interpreted as a pure! economic enterprise,” the chancellor sserted, nd calculated to promote the collection of reparations, its initlal effects on German fipances and economies can hardly be viewed as facilitating that purpose. LAST OUTLET FOR COAL IS CLOSED ISSELDORF, Feb. 1—(By The a Press.)—The closing of the Dortmund gateway, the only re- I sateen exit into unoccupied Ger- many was undertaken by the French early today upon. receipt of instruc- tions from Paris to complete the iso- lation of the Rupr. This step, which translates . into action the decision of tho French and Belgian governments to shut off the coa! and coke supplies from the rest of the Reich, follows quickly the as- sumption of the customs control by the allies yesterday, and leaves the Ruhr completely at the disposal of the occupying forces. With the Ruhr customs posts, as well as many large warehouses in | their possession, the French find that coal production is being considerabiy reduced while the rail strike is still effective, ‘The shortage of cars at the mines may result, it is feared, in the suspension of mining operations for a’ few days because of the con- sestion at the pit heads. Taking stock of yesterday's coal production, the occupying experts found that Mghtly more than 50.000 tons were thken out. This {s less than half of the usual amount and was the poorest showing for any day since the occupation began three weeks ago. Among the tncreasing number of persons deported arc 25 high school students of Aix La Chapel'e. They are charged with holding a demon- stration. Automobiles are still used to take ejected civilians across the border. Speaking to some labor leaders tn Essen last evening the correspondent found greatly divergent opinions re- garding the French occupation. The real leaders, it 1s belleved, are now in Berlin. Several af the local leaders spoke of the occupation as a violation of interffational Inw as great as the en- trance of the German army into Bel- sium. Men hold’ng such views be- long to the nationalist elements which the socialists and communists fear more than they do the French. Dr. Gruetzner, president of Rhen- ish Prussia, in an interview published in the Cologne Gazette, says he had discovered reliab information to the effect that the French wish to annex the Ruhr and that the installation of the'r owrl customs system {s the first step toward the end. the attention of French general head. quarters, officials replied that it was probably for the purpose of resisting annexation that a brigade of young men escaped from the Ruhr since the occupation, organ’zing at Hanover, under the name of “Hindenburg brigade.” The French ‘say that this force already numbers several thou- sand fully armed men.
