Fehrenbaeh Cabinet Reeigna After America Rejecte Offer—Poles Invade Upper Silesia Plebiscite Zone—Panama Scorns the Warning of Secretary

Hughes.

By EDWARD W. PICKARD. Two things operated to prevent the occupation of the Ruhr district by the allied forces last week. One was the hesitation of Great Britain and Italy to exact the-sanctions which France demanded and which everyone admits are warranted. The other was the time required to mobilize the French troops and move them over Into German territory. Tlie French minister of war. however, culled to the colors about 1-Ki.OOO men of the class of 1919 ami started them toward the Ruhr, armed ami equipped for real warfare. For several days the supreme council, in session in London, argued over tlie roparatlciiK and sanctions. Lloyd George and Count Sforza delaying ili a I decision as long as they could, while Premier Briund Insisted oi. speedy anion. Lord Gurzon was singularly stubborn in contesting the 1 French proposition)! and In the effort to delay matters he persuaded tlie council to summon to London the entire reparations eomnilssUin. Early la tin- week Secretary of State Hughes had replied to the German n. te, saying that the offer of Berlin was not. In the ; opinion of the American government, ; worthy of transmission to the allies, ! ! and expressing the hope that Germany j would "at once mnk?- directly to the i Hilled governments clear, definite and : adequate proposals w hich would In all i restsii-ts meet Its Just obligations." The wording of this note made It 1 clear that America would not Inter- i | fere, but the British and Italian mein- i ; bets of the council still hoped Doctor ! j Simons would come across with u new j j offer that would make the seizure of I i the Ruhr unnecessary. On Wedne j- | day, however, they gave in ami a final

•bed regarding the

holding futile sessions trying to frame a new offer, nod on Wednesday Chancellor Fehrenbaeh, Foreign Minister Minions ami Ihelr colleagues gave up anil resigned. At this writing !: Is underatisvl Doct'— tbrexcmnnn. leader of the |>eople‘a party, w'lli he chancellor, and Dr. Mayer-Kaufbeuren. German ambassador to France, will In? foreign minister. The collapse of the German cabinet had uo effect on the plans of the allies. Tlie United States doubtless will take no part In the military occupation of the Ruhr district, but It may soon

reparations terms. The supreme council ha* invited President Harding to name representatives in the council and the reparations eimiinisaion, and there is reason to believe the invitation will he accepted. Tlie administration, it In said iu Washington, desires to participate In the yvork iff the mission to promote American interest

In n permanent settlement.

Enraged by reports that the allies' plebiscite commission had recommended that only the Uybtilk and Pleas regions In Upper Silesia be awarded to Poland and that the rest of the territory be given to Germany, some 20,000 Poles, well organized and armed, invaded Upper Mlicslu, seized a number of Important cities, cut the cotamunl cations with Germany and at latest reports were ndvanring on Oppeln, north of tlie Oder river. The Fi British and Italian control officers and their small bodies of troops were unable to co|fe with the situation and the whole region was overrun, peasants there siding with the Polish Invaders. At (irons Mtrelilliz Italian forces commanded by Colonel Bond, an Eiirrllshuian. resisted the Poles who sought to occupy the city and an artil-

lery engagement ensued.

The Gonna a government, of con no , formally protested against this action of tlie Poles to the allied governments, and the latter look Immediate steps to tegaln control of the situation, declnrlug martial law in tlu plebiscite zone and sending troops against the invaders. It was admitted that it would be hard to oust the Poles, and the alleged fact that their course was tacitly approved by the French authorities there created considerable ill feeling between Hie British and the French Premier Brlami, however, asked Prince Sapleha, Polish foreign minister, now in Parte, to transmit to the Polish' government a request to end the disturbances in Upper Slli-slu. When the allied supreme council adjourned Its London session It was said it would soon meet again In Ostend to take up

Jn the final debate on •• i.-.solution Senator Lodge admitted tlie Versailles treaty could not be wo um.mdcd ns to meet the requirements of the United Stales, as President ilardiug hoped, and that a new treaty nius' be negotiated. Tills, of course, I- pleasing to ihe '‘Irreconcilable*.'*

‘'Panama feels sure that the Ameriran government will cease Its endeavors In recommending acceptance of n decision upon which public opinion already has uttered Us last word and which has become an adjudged matter Pnunmn refused the White decision with the same right and for almost the same reasons that the United Slates government declined In 1831 lo accept the decision of the king of Ihe Netherlands In a boundary litigation

The senate passed the Dillingham Immigration 1, ' which limits immigration to 3 per cent annually of persons of various nationalities In the United States In 1910. Only Reed of Missouri voted In the negative. The measure went to conference and It was expected the house would accept the senate bill and that It would he signed by Ihe'President. It becomes effective within fifteen days after enactment and remains in force until June 30. 1922. The measure would permit tlie landing In America of about' 860,000 Immigrants In tlie next twelve months.
