He was curious to kncw, however, how the Americans would receive a document which made all settlements of the reparation ques- tion depend upon the payment of the debts to the United States which he remarked amounted to throwing the responsibility for the Furopean chaos on the United States. The most surprising feature of the note to the French government offi- clals it was said was the contentlon that the occupation of the Ruhr was illegal, Tegality of Occupation The legality of the occupation of the Ruhr or any other German terri- tery the allies might choose was rec- ognized in a document signed at Spa on July, 1920, by the British as well ay the other allies, and by representa- tives of the German governmenf, an official said. He referred to the protocol in which were set forth the decisions of the Spa conference regarding coal deliv- eries on reparation account in which a clause read: “If by November 15, 1920 it appears that the coal deliveries for August, September and Ocdtober have not reached a total of 6,000,000 tons the allies will proceed to the occupation of ed States. " Grave Crisis The present situation in the Ruhr, says the note, constitutes a grave political and economic crisis which is having a particularly noticeable ef- fect on trade. The communication declares that Great Britain would be willing to have representatives of both the United States and Germany on the proposed board of inquiry into the Reich’s as- sets, but that the ‘reparation commis- slon being preponderantly Franco- Belgian, would hardly be competent to conduct such an investigation. " “When steps have thus been taken to ascertain the real value of thg as- | sels represented by German repara- | tions,” continues note “and to secure its realization without further depre- clation, his mafesty's government will be ready to deal as generously as cir- | cumstances permit, and in the light | of their respective capacities to pay, with the debts due to Great Britaln by her allles.

Ioggy conditions prevailed during the afternoon. Members of the Knights of Col- umbus council of Greenport, I.. I. on an excursion, were the ‘passengers. After the steamer was hung up on the bar, many of the passengers de- manded that they be put ashore and boarded a number of small sraft from Roton Point and Norwalk har- bor. There was some confusion in taking off passengers. Some pas- sengers took trains for New York while others stayed at Roton Point |until early evening when, the steamer having floated they were put back aboard. 8o far as could be learned the steamer was undamaged as the water was smooth during the mishap.
