LttrULLLI 1 SPA. July 14. (U. P.) With the summoning- of Marshal Foch and Field Marshal Wilson, allied occupa- tlon of German territory and other measures to enforce the Versailles treaty, today seems inevitable. Ger many's flat refusal to meet the allied demand for l,t00.000 tons of coal monthly resulted in a suspension of the conference and the culling of the allied military leaders. Plans are completed for action against Germany. Unless some solution of the situation Is reached today tho French army on the Rhine will be ordered to proceed into Germany. It Is believed that Germany will not attempt to prevent the occupation of the Ruhr by force. In event the allies decide tp Invade Germany, IielKian and French troops will form a nucleus. Volunteers will be reee'ved from all the countries. No other nation will ie asked for regular troops. Marshal Foch and General retrain arrived here early today. Marshal Wilson is expected soon. They will confer with allied delegates and pre sent plans for military action. In the Tuhr district. Omfcrem Kmpliatio. SPA. July 14. A- P.)

HOSPITAL ESCAPE IS SHOT IN ENCOUNTER Jim OweiiM, part Indian, and Neil Hart, three quarters Indian, languish "in the Umatilla county Jail today and they may bo thankful they are alive. They were raptured after a desperate chnse eslorday by Sheriff T. I). Tay lor, Deputy Jake Marin. Deputy Gtonn Hushee and others. During the pur suit Taylor firea four times at f. weu, hitting him cnec on a thumb. In a fight with Hurl.

The car was tracked to Ilieth and abjut 4 o'clock yenterday afternoon Fherifl Tiiytc r and Deputy Bunh e found Owen and Hart walking down the railroad tr.tck towards Rieth. The men were covered by the officers. Haft threw up hiy. ImiuIh but Owen tried to play crassy and begked the vheriff not to kill him. A'.the slime time he waa fooling with hfs coat and suspecting ho was reaching for a gun Taylor erabl-ed the Cfat from the man. A ic volver in the oat. proved the surmise wai right. As his coat waa grab he i from him Cwci broke and run under a tre.ght err, the sheriff firing with the uim of slot ping him. Ili ads fur Cache, Getting e'ear of the tracks at Rieth, Owen was chased over the hills north of liielh and then across the Umatilla rHtT. lie was heading for a plac wher-; l:e and Hart had cached some guns and stolen Indian plunder. Sus pecting as much Sheriff Taylor and Deputy TSushee redoubled their efforts and Taylor finally caught him. Cov- ENDLETON stands to profit greatly by the report made by Miss Cummmcrs 'rif tViP TTni iTimrlTT subject of playground and recreational - opportunities in Pendleton. Her survey is of value for many reasons. She outlines a broad plan under which all people may derive good at all times of the year. Yet so practical are the suggestions made that a start will be easy because we may begin with improving conditions at the three big grade schools. It is the loaical dace to commence ana tnis paper teels safe in sav nir to the school authorities that the people will heartily suurjort them in iroinjr tne limit towards providing needed equipment and supervised piay ior tne scnooi cniidren. Miss tummings recommendation for a centrallv located community building to answer recreational and other needs is sure to strike a responsive chord. Many of our people and our organizations nave Jong seen the need of such a building. It is not a new subject by any means in Pendleton but it remained for Miss Cummigs to add new life to the move by pointing out the physical benefits to be derived from use of such a structure. Perhaps this is not the time to do any building, but that does not matter. It is not contemplated that the suggestions made can all be carried out at once. The survey looks to the future. not merely to the present. Some day we will be able to get this community building and the day may come sooner than we think. As an advocate of the greater Pendleton the East Oregonian heartily supports the cause of good playgrounds and up to date recreational advantages for all people. It sound policy to have such things trom a human viewpoint and jt will be good business for the city. This is primarily a home town and a school town. Every step that makes for happier homes and better schools helps build up the city. People like to move to a town that is awake on such subjects. We have gained population by improving local civic conditions. We can gain more by the same policies and Miss Cummings points the way.

Staff Correspondent) Making his first campaign state ment a stinging attack on Harding and his "senatorial oligarchy of Lodge, Penrose and fimoot," demo cratic nominee Cox today declared his fight for election will "be dedicated to the task of bringing peace with bonor." The statement was in reply to Harding's declaration that Wiluon forced Cox, although he did not have the backing of administration forces at San Fra ncisco. to acce pt t he league of Nations as a dominant is sue of the campaign. In a rather sarcastic tone. Cox at tacked Harding's front porch , cam paign, declaring his "listening post at Marion will be as far from the run ning current of progressive thought as the senatorial oligarchy of Lodge, Penrose and Smoot has been from" the heart beats of the American peo ple for a year or more." . - , ELKS AND FAMILIES CHICAGO, July 14. (By Henry Jacobs, U. P. Staff Correspondent.) The new third party will function without the guiding hands of the lead- ' er of the committee of 48. it was learn ed today on highest authority. Fur- . ther. Senator La Follette has refused to become the party's . presidential nominee. These developments result- ed from the labor party finally ma neuvering itself into complete domina tion of the situation, with apparent anchoring of the party to an ultra radical program. The Impasse was reached in an all-night meeting of tho leaders of labor leaders and the com mittee of 48. Liberal organizations which hava definitely cast their lot with tha la- borites include the non-partisan league, world war veterans, the rank and file veterans' association, tha American constitutional party and tha American party of Texas. Single Tax Party Out. The single tax party voted lost night to conduct its own campaign without 'entangling alliances., Several la bor! tes are working: for amalgamation of the third party with the socialists. ' Single tax men chose Robert Mc Cauley of Philadelphia, for their pres idential candidate and R. C. Barnum, of Cleveland, for vice-president. As a last resort, the leaders of tha committee of 48 may withdraw their delegates from the joint convention: and form their own "third party. Success of the latter will obviously b 1 remote as a majority of the original 48 of the convention went on record - fflvririnB- a 1 1 rro n ot- tn t Via la hnr too Hoe- SALEM. Ore.. July It.
