FUEL DECISION SOON DUE Statement Iauod to Prevent Any Possible Iioss or Friendship of America. POSSIBLE SHORTAGE IX OIL, MAY CAUSE COXVEKSIOX. ON GERMANS DENIED PARIS, June 5. (Special.) Love letters found on the French black soldiers in the Iihineland, bouquets of flowers brought by German women folk at Mainz and Woerms, when the nesro battalions were about to be relieved by white troops and rein forced guards posted at the barrack3 gates in Frankfort to keep off the German girls who flocked thither to have a peep at the dusky Senegalese these were among the hints given Friday by a high Quai d'Orsay offi cial to show that the presence of black troops in the French zone of occupation on the Iihine has not in terfered with the normal life of the population there to the extent indi cated by the German government. French officialdom is gradually awakening to the danger of a pos sible revolution of feeling against France in America and neutral countries as a result of the sustafned propaganda cammign to the eftect that daily atrocities are being 'com mitted by the black troops in the Saar valley and throughout the Mecnz bridgehead zone. Reports Meld RJdlcnlonx. "When in a recent Reichstag speech the German, foreign minister declared that there were still 65,000 French black troops in the occupied region, the French officials' denial received but scant notice in the French press because as the foreign office be lieves, Germany's attempts to make herself out a terrorized and martyred country are regarded in France as ridiculous. Th3re never were more than 23.000 black troops in the French zone. The number is now reduced to 16,000, the correspondent was officially assured, counting white officers and white non-commissioned officers. While the Germans have already laid hundreds of charges of assault on white women at the door of the black soldiers, French military au thorities have so far found only 13 authentic instances of mistreatment and nono of complaints investigated have come from the local population. Two of 13 black soldiers tried by French court-martial have been ac quitted, whije 11 have been severely punished. Eleven Blacks Convicted. The 13 authenticated cases of at tacks on white women by negro troops during 18 months, are a total which might have occurred under ordinary circumstances, French offi cials think. Besides the hope of winning the sympathy of neutral countries and America, there are reasons of internal politics, it is held here, which actuate the Germans in continuing the crusade against the phantom danger of the black troops in the moral eecurity of white women. , It is feared in Berlin, according to " foreign official Information, that un less the German government dis plays a deeper interest in the popu lation of the French occupied zone, the Rheinish Spartan movement will develop into, a tangible peril to Fi'ussianism. Portland Petroleum Users to Meet Tomorrow to Discuss Exig encies of Situation. '- Within a week fuel oil users in Portland will probably determine if they will hazard a chance? on the ex pected fuel oil shortage next fall or play safe by converting oil burners into coal or wood burners. As yet, so far as is known, no fuel oil users have determined what is to be done. Some buildings equipped with heating plants operated by fuel oil burners will be handicaped se riously by being shut off from the normal supply of petroleum, but a great .many of the downtown build ings are supplied with setam fur nished by the Northwestern Electric company. This company, incidentally, uses fuel oil. but officials are not worried for the present, as all essen tial industries and public utilities have been assured of an adequate supply of fuel oil. this fall. Apartment houses in Portland using oil are almost certain to be hit by the lack of fuel oil. but in the majority of cases apartment houses are equipped to use wood or coal, and conversion from oil can be accom plished easily. A meeting of building owners and fuel users has been called tomorrow afternoon in the green room of the Chamber of Commerce to discuss what shall be done. 107 GRADUATE AT EUGENE Largest Class in History of Higli School Receive Diplomas.
