GERMANS NOW SEE | FRENCH WEAKENING Consider Reluctance to Enlorce| qutluufllgn Essen, Jan, 19, (By Associated | Press) —The announcement at Frenech | general headquarters that the customa und forest eontrol to be inaugurated immediately in the Rhineland would be promulgated shortly in the Ruhr brought forth the comment in Ger. man circles that the Freneh military authorities were reluctant to apply such penalties in the newly occupied area. Delay in enforcemtent of the meas- ures here is regarded by the Germans as & sign of weakness. They declare that the Rhinelands having submitted without a murmur to four years of occupation are now the first to be thus punished, * Little Coal Taken, { As the French, Itallan and Belgian | ma experts completed their plans for controlling the expert business of | the Rhineland which includes 70 per cent of Germany's dye trade, as well as the products of the Krupp plant at Alx.le-Chapelle, the Ruhr valley offered neither resistance nor oppo- sition to the requisitioning of coal shipments. The ount thus taken over %o far s small There was great rejoicing today over the letter written to Gen, Den- vigne by Dr, Gruetzner, president of Lhenish Prussia in which he declared that the French have been responsi- ble for the increased living costs in the Ruhr and that they are incapa- ble, by reason of their inexperience of administering the Ruhr valley in- dustries, Famine Waming. ‘The communication also warned the French that famine appeared un- avoidable. In reply to the French retort that this was an attempt at blackmail, Dr. Gruetzner agserted that export houses in Canada and Holland which have been‘supplying the Ruhr! with cereals and other food, have given orders that shipments cannot be continued, The FFrance-Belgium order forbid- ding the singing of “Deutschland | Uber Alles” or the “Die “Wacht Am Rhein,” under penalty of a‘fine of 200,000 marks or six months’ im- prisonment is received with disgust.)

The Germans as the occupation be- gins its second week cpntinue to con- centrate their resistance to economic and financial lines. To a neutral ob- scrver this appears to have put the I'rench on the defensive. The control commission, however, adopts an op- timistic attitude, asserting that the German civilian and the Ruhr work- ing man would be the first to suffer from such tactics. MAKES FAST TRIP Airplané Flies From h.yton to New York in Afternoon—Time Four Hours, 18 Minutes. - New York, Jan. 19.—Licut. Alex- ander Plerson and Bradley Jones of the Army Air Service exceeded all records for the 692 miles between Dayton, Ohio, and Mitchel Kieid at Mineola yesterday, when (hey left Dayton at 12:14 o'clock and landed at Mitchel I%ield at 4:32 o'clock by the official clocks at the flying field. They made the distance, sccording to this timing, in four hours and 18 minutes, 24 minutes less than the best previous flight. Jones' watch, how- ever showed only 4:29 o'clock when they landed. H l.ieut. Pierson and Jones flew a De Haviland plane equipped with a 12 cylinder Libesty, motor of 420 horse- power. It carries 180 gallons of oil and gasoline weighing 1,400 pounds. Licut. Pierson flew at an average height of about 3,500 feet, and took advantage of a 100 mile gale blowing from the west. The machine made records for various points along the routé, reaching Moundsville, W. Va., in one hour and nine minutes. The plane made no stops between Dayton and Hempstead. One of the purposes of the flight was to test an instrument designed | to indicate to an airplane pilot his position in the air, even when he is not able to sec the ground and. make out landmarks, By referring to his maps, with the aid of this instru- ment, he can ascertain where he is and shape his course accordingly. Jones intended to start back to Day- ton this morning, to give the instru- ment another test.
