GERMANY
rAtlTS. April 4. Nothing has been
announced regarding France's next
step with regard to the sending of.
German troops into the Ruhr coal
basin, with the exception or a vague
official statement which said that any
military measures the French gov
ernment has under consideration are
merely for the. purpose of forcing
Germany to adhere strictly to the
terms of the peace treaty.
"The military measures under the
government's consideration have as
their sole object the forcing Of Ger
many to respect articles 42 and 44 of
the peace treaty, which forbid the
presence of German troops in the zone
i0 kilometers east of the Rhine." the
statement says.. "They are therefor
purely restrictive measures." ,
Newspapers Give View.
Such measures were taken by the
afternoon newspapers to mean the
occupation of Frankfort. Hanail. Ham
burg and Darmstadt. The newspaper
expressed the belief that official an
nouncement of the occupation was
only awaiting Premier Millerand's
notification of and consultation with
the .-flies.
The note of Dr. Goeppert, head of
the German peace commission, with
regard to the entry of German troops
into the Ruhr district, recalls that
the German government had accepted,
after hesitation, that such entry
should have been a counterpart al
lied occupation of Frankfort. Darm
stadt, Hanau. Hamburg and Dieburg
after a certain delay, presumably it
the troops had not been .withdrawn
after a fixed time.
Freer Guarantee Offered.
Receipt of the note, which was ad
dressed to the president of the peace
conference, was announced by Pre
mier Millerand Saturday. Dr. Goep
pert offered the fresh guarantee that
an allied commission be sent to the
lluhr valley to verify that the pres
ence of troops is necessary.
Comment has been aroused here by
the fact that the note was addressed
to the president of the peace con
ference and. not to the French pre
mier. The afternoon papers deduced
from" this- that Germany hopes that
allies "Judgment of her case will dif
fer from, that of France."
It was understood that Dr. Goep
pert, in his note, declared the Ger
man government was unable to with
stand the appeal of the distracted
population of the Ruhr region who

we fear, another sacrifice to our
mixed and complex system of episco
pacy and general superintendency in
the Methodist-Episcopal church.
Travel Declared Excessive.
"Constitutionally and technically we
have a general superintendency. which
calls upon our general superintend
ents to travel the convocation at
large, and we have, too, a developed
episcopacy which calls for an ap
proach to aiocesan responsibility.
"The complex system we now have
results in excessive travel, and is re
sponsible for the breakdown and sud
den collapse of all too many of our
bishops and leaders. The heart of
every true Methodist aches at the
price that is paid in the sacrifice of
strong men.
