Split Now Wider Than Ever. Sven in the midst of the recent ar, the cleft between Britain and France was often visible. The split now is wider than ever. The war brought the British all they wanted. They are now the only great sea power of Europe. Ger- many is disarmed. and icussia 18 no longer a menace or a power in the world.

C, MAY 029 =2y AS ANALYZED BY HARDEN German Publicist Sees Lloyd George Aiming to Make Germany a Sort of Junior Partner of England. the Ruhr coal fields and the ian minerals, she would set an industrial dictatorship upon which_Engiand would be depend- ent. France, therefore, must not be allowed to export continental coal. Lloyd George also knows it would be'a dangcrous misiake to set any hopes upon the technical and industrial efficiency of the Toles. He wishes instead that a disarmed Germany shall soon re- cover enough to work hard and help England through her factorics and manufactured goods, and act s her agent in satisfying the needs of eastern Europe, especially Russia, where alone lies the neces- sary treasure for healing the dam- ages of war. The French intrigue mixed with the Polish episode therefore annoys the British pre- mier. Lloyd George emph, after the result of sian plebiscite was made Known the abominable injustice which would lie in taking away the whole or a large part of thé industrial district from Germany. France on the other hand an- swers a _positive program nega- tively. France does not believe Germany’s desire to make repara- tions. France does not believe “the boche” in his promises, and thinks that her debt is only sure of payment when she has control of the entire iron Rhineland from Lens and Briey to Rybnik. Feellng in ¥ran Many a French general is secret- ly saving today that as “perfidious Albion” is not dependable, an un- derstanding with Germany and a realization of the Napoleonic dream of a continental union is the | 1 most advisable plan. Public opinion in France. how- ever, sees only some Utopian idea and 'is convinced that France will be ble to breathe without care only when Germany has lost one bank of the Rhine or other. No g0od can come out of this an- &ry policy of mistrust, inasmuch as a diminished and weakened Germany. with the best will in the world, would be incapable of mak- ing world reparations. It soon will be apparent whether the new Wirth cabinet will be able to overcome France's distrust, to clear up the fog of political phraseology and recognize the realties of economic interests be- tween France and Germany. Perhaps it may be possible for Germany to obtain patronage in the world markets as a sort of junior partner to England, which today is commercially stronger than industrially. The attempt favored by the powers thirsting for reparations to improve Ger- many's paying balance by means of intensified exportation can only succeed in the east. Notwithstanding her human good will and ideals, the United States, which during the war years creat- ed a large industry which needs export trade for prosperity. will not allow German dumping to in- undate her markets. Otly in the east does a new sun shii e for German commerce. SANDED FLOUR AND HUNGRY ANTS MAKE GERMANS WARY OF U.S. FOOD BY GEORGE By Cable to The Star News. Copyright, 1921. BERLIN, Germany, May 20.— Germany is getting wary of Ameri- can food. Some time ago there came from the United States consign- ments of flour in which sand had been mixed. This flour was bought by Germany with some of the few &0ld marks remaining in her treas- ury. The “sanded bread” which was baked from it at least had the advantage of scouring the teeth, thereby making the use of tooth- paste quite unnecessary, as one newspaper put it sarcasticall Now the Berlin Institute of Biology has made a discovery that has made the hitherto greatly envied recipients of food packages from WITTE. nd Chiengo Daily the United Sta uite unhappy. These “love as they are popularly called, are now said to be carriers of a new species of red ants heretofore unknown in Ger- many. These ants are’ infesting the pantries of private homes as well as restaurants and hotels by the million and are doing great damage. So many complaints about the new plague were made recently that the government ordered the Institute of Biology to investigate the matter. Already ‘the land-baron news- papers, which took an antagonistic stand in regzrd to the shipping of American milk and cows to Ger- many, are demanding of the gov- ernment that it put a‘ban on the food packages, as “the ants are cating up the small supplies of 500d "food which the fatherland still possesse: ODESSA DESCRIBED AS MADHOUSE AND REDS AS ILLITERATE BRUTES CONSTANTINOPLE. May 19.— Mrs. Anna Keiscr of Philadelphia, who arrived here after having been allowed to leave Odessa as a British subject, says that in leaving that city she felt as if she were escaping from a madhouse. Odessa now is ruled by the bolsheviki. Mrs. Keiser is the widow of Eli Keiser, formerly of Philadelphia, who dfed in Odessa. and vhe Is the daughter of Mrs. B.

Mrs. Keiser said that Henry Pot- ter, an American who used to be employed in the American consulate as a courier or servant and who was left there to take care of the effects of the consulate, was executed in Odessa last June because papers ad- dressed to the American State De- partment and complaining of the sovict system were found in_ his pos- session. “He had a list of papers, files and furniture missing from the American consulates at Petrograd and Odessa,” said Mrs. Keiser. “He tricd to help me escape.” SIMS TO GET DEGREE AS GUEST OF BRITAIN Will Receive Honor With Foch at Cambridge University—Program Arranged by Admiralty. LONDON, May 21.—Rear Admiral Willlam 8. Sims, U. §. N., former com- {mander of the American naval forces in the war zone, who Is due in England on the liner Cedric tomorrow to receive the degree of doctor of laws from Cambridge University, will be the recipient of more official honors than perhaps were ever extended 1o an American naval officer in this country. There were very few blank spaces in covering the admiral's stay, from May 22 to June 11, and the scores of friends Admiral Sims made during the war, and friends of yet older days, are in keen competition for opportunities to enter- tain the visitor. Escorted into Liverpool by destroyers on Sunday, Rear Admiral Sims will re- main on the Cedric overnight. He will be accompanied to London on Monday by Capt. F. M. Leake, representing the admiralty, and Commander Emory S. Land, assistant naval attache at the American embassy, representing Am- bassador Harvey. The party will be accommodated in a special salon car. The American guest will be given a luncheon by the Pilgrim’s Society Thurs- day and will be guest at a dinner in the evening by Col. Mildmay. His party will occupy royal boxes at Hurlingham Saturday, watching the American polo team play with an English competitor, and at the Olympia in the evening, where the royal naval and military tournament is in progress. Admiral Sims and Marshal Foch will both receive their degrees at Cambridge on May 31, whéeg they will be guests of the, vice chancefior.

BUDAPEST, May 20.—The former Emperor Charles was 8o fearful that an attempt would be made to kill him when he tried receniiy to regain his throne as King of Hungary that he fled before the approach of five Hungarian newspaper men who went to Steinamanger to interview him. The reporters had obtained permis- sion to visit him when he was stay- ing at that place awaiting the over- whelming demonstration in his favor came. The man who as alone in the gar- den of Bishop Mikes' mansion at Steinamanger, and buried in deep thought, was walking slowly under the trees when he was startled by the appearance of the five strangers. He retreated before the advancing | party, and as they quickened their steps. Charles ran for the shelter of the trees and bushes. In a moment he encountered Bishop Mikes, who reassured him with a few | whispered words. Charles waited, recelved the surprised journalists and with a few friendly words, spoken in a trembling voice, dismissed them. —_— SOVIET GOLD, £50,000,000 ie!erve in Russia Estimated by Latvian Newspaper.
