Poincare that the government never 14 a interference in either her domestic or foreign policies. The premier's zddress to the d uties also was marked by a brief but pointed reference to those who op- pose her coercive policy. “Today” he said, France appears to certain peoples who did not have part of their territory devastated in Pthe war and who did not advance a hundred billion in behalf of Ger- many as a hindrance to financiers who are in a hurry to form trust As to the Pope's letter M.

MAY ARREST SAILORS England Threatens To Forcibly Ree move Some of Leviathan's Crew on Charges of Descrtion By T Associnted Press. London, July 7.—~The threatened prosecution of many members of the l.eviathan's crew for alleged desertio! from British vessels is attracting mue! |attention here. The Daily Mall says the proceedings will be taken by the board of trade to protect British shipping. Other re- ports assert that the action will be taken by the steamship companies. The number of men who are threat- ned with arrest under the British mercantile shipping act is variously -stimated at between 100 and 300. The Daily Mail states that when the big liner arrives at Southampton she probably will be quarantined until the police have identified each man. There have been many complaints of Pritish ships being forced to res turn short-handed because of the de sertion of their men, who have been attracted by the high American wages although they signed for the round (trip and were warned before hand ef the j=nalties of desertion.
