GRAVE WARNING
GIVEN GERMANS
(4.ermn Charge is Told France Will
Colutenanice In Volationi of the
Treaty. Too Mainy Troops have
been Sent to Ruhr.
Paris, 'April 3.-,After warning the
Gernaii charge d'affaires. in a note
thaf the French government would ad
mit of no derogation of the treaty of
Versailles, lremlei' M illerand con
ferred with Marslhal Foch this even
Ing. Marshal Foch then hal a con
ference with the minister of war. An
<iew Lefevre, who later was received
by the premier.
Premier Millerand sent a note this
evening to the German charge d'af
faires, Dr. Von layer, recalling that
he had written him yesterday asking
him to insist that his government re
tire the troops which recently entered
the Ruhr basin. The note warned Dr.
Von Alayer that the French govern
ment was unable to admit of any dero
gation of the treaty of Versalles.
"Today at 5:45 p. m1., Dr. Goeppert
(head of the German peace commis
Sion), informed the president of the
peace conference that troops exceed
ing the number allowed by the de
cision of August 9, 1919, had entered
the Ruhr basin an dasking ine to give
formal permission for their entry af
ter the entry had been effected," M3.
Millerand's note says. "I learn that
'Von 'Haniel (Dr. 'Haniel Von Haim
hausen, under-secretary of the Ger
man foreign office) confirms that the
German government has given entire
liberty of action to Severing (Prussian
minister of the interior) for the em
tployment of the troops concentrated
for operations in the Ruhr basin and
that Severing assumes responsibility
for their actions in this zone. I learn
further that the Reichswehr's attack
commenced In the neutral zone on
April 2 and that the front troops
have already reached north of Dort
mund and Duisburg."
"Ily this offensive the German gov
ernment infringes articr 44 of the
treaty."
Premier Millerand cites the text of
the article to the effect that any con
travention will be considered a hos
tile act against the signatories of the
treaty and adds:
"I will inform you later what do
cislon the government of the Repub
lic takes."
-In a statement to a lavas repre
sentative this evening, Premier Mill
erand said:
"We are confronted with a system
atic violation of article 43 of the
treaty. Bad faith in the explanations
offered by the German government
for its alleged mistake is evidenced
by the rapidity of the advance of the
troops despite our intefdiction. The
necessity of repressing the trouble in
the Ruhr district does not justify the
German initiative. The acts of dis
order, in fact, were localized, already
the conflict is apiproaching extinction
b~y peaceful means.
"Intervention by .the regular forces
may lead to the worst consequences."
M1. Mlillerand, as president of the
council.. naturnily refused to ustate
specifically 'what measures the French
government con tem leted to coun ter
act the German piroceedings, but saidl:
"I have made it a point to ask adl
vice of Miarshal Foch, and at the same
time have informed andl consultedl
with the allies."
It is believed that France wvill de
mnand as a guarantee the occupation
by the allies of Frankfort, 'Darmstadt
and -lIanau.

It was very bright on the street and

The Ideal Five-PTassenger Car.
Whether the Paige Glenbrook is chosen solezly because of its beauty or
rather because of its mech;anical excellence, a full measure of satisfiaction
is assured to its owner ii- either'case.
For it is well known that., in Paige cars, beauty and efficiency go hand
in hand.
The same skill in car buildingr which is responsible for making the
Glenbrook a vehicle of e::ceptional grace is likewise responsible for
making it an exceptional car from the mechanical standpoint.
In body, power plant and chassis, it is distinctly a Paige product -
setting standards of comfort, economy and dependability such as have
never before been prese nt in a car of moderate price.
Although it has been before the public no more than four months,
it is destined, we believe, to revolutionize the Lig-ht Six field.
Its new six-cylinder motor -designed and built in our own shops-is
a -feature which, in itself, entitles thie new Paige Glenbrook to a place
at the head of America's fmnest five-passenger motor cars.
When you see this latest Paige model and ride in it, you will agree
,with us, we believe, that, from a mechanical as well as an artistic
point of view, there is no finer five-passenger car on the market today.
That this is now quite the general opinion among motorists is indicated
by the number who have already made arrangements for Spring deliveries.
Let us suggest that you give early .consideration to the question ot
placing your order wasith our dealer while it is still possible for him to
take care of your requirements.
