In addition, it is stated in officlal quarters, the Ruhr ‘situation in the present impasse, does not permit new and definite proposals to be contem- plated. {FRENCH TODAY BEGIN T0 UNLOAD COAL THEY SEIZED Agninst Acflon = Directed Who Refused .to Pay Forceful Those Taxes, wge Viscountess Dunsford, who prefers to be known by her stage name, Peggy Rush, has amved in this country to appear before American audiences in the stage version of Hutchinson’s famous novel “If Winter Comes.” U.

Serious Factor in 1923 Outlook. The unhealthy condition in the building trades, due to inflation, is de- clared to be the one serious situation in the outlook for 1923, Unless the inflation can be curbed, it is feared another general strike by the building public will result with the stoppage of virtually all construc- tion work. This would bring hard- ship to the whole manufacturing and industrial structure. The calling off of all government construction work will be recommend- ed as the best means of checking fur- ther inflation and at the same time providing a method of preventing a precipitate break in lndus\try generat- 1y, which would be disastrous.
