Berlin, Oct. 22.—The separatists continued the extension of the new Rhineland republic Monday by tak ing possession of the administration of several additional towns and cities in the occupied regions. Little bloodshed /was reported in the w'lde movement for the establish ment of the republic. The most seri ous early clash occurred Monday morning when the secessionist troops marched into Mayence. Two casual-' ties were reported by the separatists, following a brisk firing which greeted them at the city gates. The troips were later withdrawn to the out skirts to avoid further clashes. Mayence has thus far refused to accede to the separaist demand that it join the secessionists. Rioting at Wanne. Later in the forenoon rioting broke out at Wanne and in the scrimmage two separatists were killed and six communists injured. When the sep aratist cavalry entered Meissen they were greeted with shots from a mob which gathered to oppose them. The cavalry returned the shorts. Several were wounded on both sides. Towns and cities seized by the separatist forces now include Juelish, Crefeld, Meunchen-Gladbach, ErcK elin, Bracekelin, Mayence, Russel heim.r Berncastle, Saarburg, Baden, Prum, and Montjoie, besides Aix La Chapelle, the seat of the original movement Sunday. Coblenz Loyal At Coblenz, the former seat of the American occupational forces, there was a strong movement for joining the Rhine republic, and a great crowd assembled, urging the mayor to ac cede to the movement. The mayor refused, declaring: "I know only one republic and that is the reic’i.” Dr. Leo Deckers, prime mover in the separatist program, assured the movement of further friendship from the French and Belgian occupational forces, by declaring: “We seek to establish a free and neutral Rhine land like Luxembourg was before the war. We recognize the Versail les treaty and guarantee that the Rhineland will pay its share of rep arations." WILL MAKE NEW OFFER Berlin, Oct. 22.—With Bavaria and the Rhineland in revolt, and with Saxony under guard by troops, the 'German government has definitely decided to try another offer to meet the French reparation demands. It is hoped by this means to stay furth er French-Belgian action arid at the same time keep the Ruhr working to prevent an industrial shut down entailing chaos and hunger there. The proposed offer originated with the industrialists of the Ruhr and Rhineland, led by Hugo Stinnes. It will be made public in Germany Tuesday to prepare the German peo ple for the" reception of the plan. The plan provides that the indus trialists will deliver 20 per cent, of their total production as reparations payments in kind at their expense. In return, the government will free the industrialists from all further tax payments. Cabinet Accepts Plan The industrialists claim that this plan will enable them to keep their plants going at cost without profit. The Stresemann cabinet has accept ed the plan, and, according to au thoritative information, will deliver the proposal to France. If France accepts the Stinnes plan the way will be opened for consider ing the whole reparations problem. Secret- negotiations regarding the new note have been going on with Sir Slohn Bradbury and M. Leon De La Croix, British and Belgian heads of the reparations commission. The aim of these negotiations is to sound the opinion of the allies and prepare the note in such a way that it will be assured of acceptance. Berlin is informed that Premier Baldwin of England will make an im portant speech Thursday outlining the new position of the British gov ernment on the reparations problem.

CLEAR WAY FOR PEACE, PLEA OF LLOYD GEORGE “Little Welshman” Urges Co-operation Between Na tions to End War BY JAMES R. NOURSE Universal Service Correspondent Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 22.—Before an audience largely composed of veterans of the World war. in the which gave birth to the man who fired the first American shot and to the one who was the/first to fall af ter America entered the struggle, David Lloyd George, leader of Brit ain's war forces, made his greatest appeal for world peace. The speech, urging co-operation between English speaking nations to end war, was most forceful, the most eloquent, the most brilliant, he has delivered on his American tour. Inspired by the presence of the American Legionnaires and of the flags they carried across to France, the former premier rose to oratorical heights which filled the geat auditor ium to a most responsive enthusi asm. Entering the grim horrors of war and the ghastly paft he had in it, Lloyd George in tragic tones ex claimed: “I don’t want to do it again: I don’t want any one else to do it again!” Clear Way for Peace ‘‘As long as I live,” he added, ‘‘this shall be my plea, that there Shell be no more war, but that your nation and our nation should unite toclear the way for the Angel of Peace with its message of peace on earth, good will to men.” In another portion of his speech Lloyd George Indirectly criticised the policy which France is now pursuing toward Germany, declaring that Ger many is crushed and vanquished and should not be kicked while she is down. He dropped into the vernacu lar of the prize ring in saying this and apologized for it, explaining that no other language could explain his meaning. He said the policy of Ab raham Lincoln of “conciliation, not vengeance,” should be adapted to the case of Germany. The speech was delivered' in Cadle tabernacle, estimated to seat 10,000. Hundreds were turned away. A sec tion of the hall was reserved for vet erans of the World war. American Legions members marched into the hall and placed their flags flags-on the platform at the left of the Speak er. Lloyd George was half an hour late In reaching the hall. When he en tered at 8:30 o’clock, accompanied by Dame Margaret and Miss Megan Lloyd George^and others in his par ty, he was given a two minute ova tion. Praises Indiana Beginning his speech with an ex pression of thanks for the cordiality of Indian's greeting, Lloyd George said it was an honor to receive a welcome from a state which had taken such an honored part in every struggle in which the ountry was engaged. It was a plecasure, he said, to be present at a meeting organized by the*&merican Legion, adding that he regretted that he could not at tend the convention recently held in San Francisco. “We were glad to see them some years ago,” he added with a smile. “The first sight we had of their uniforms gave us a thrill of relief and hope and confidence which it is difficult for those who have not gone through a great war to appreciate. Things were not going very well in Europe at that time. The greatest army the world has ever seen, were the words, Iheard General Poch use about the Germany army that had marched through Belgium. Millions were dead, many more millions were wounded, our ospitals were filled and the prospect was not a promising one. “Just fhen the great republic of the west sprang into the arena with its sword drawn to fight the battles of right in the field of Europe. When we saw that uniform for the first „ time niarching in the streets of Lon don on to France, what a thrill it gave us. "When the great peril came in March 1918, when our lines were broken, when Russia was practically out of the fighting and Germany was able to bring her army from the eastern front and throw it in against the green array of the. Allies on the wes t,I remember sending a tele gram to your president asking him to send even a small detachment over to give spirit and courage to those broken lines. And his response was prompt. The Americans began to come and the very fact that they were coming gave courage to the Allies all *along those shattered fronts. "At the battle of Cfoteau Thiery the American army won a signal victory,and that, no doubt, helped to restore the fulles confidence among the Allied forces. When I saw thai uniform today it brought back to me the thrill that I had in those days when they came across to join in the' fight for liberty." Gov. Small Frees Men Who Refused to Help State Case Waukegan, 111., Oct. 22.—Gov.

Plans for establishing a boarding house for pet animals, principally dogs and eats, were outlined recently by officials of the Wyandotte County Hu mane society. The plans will be sub mitted to the board of directors by Miss Sarah Jacobs,' president. The dog and cat boarding house would be self-sustaining. Miss Jacobs said that the plan contemplated would require the construction of suitable sheds, pens, a run or playground for dogs and a modern system for disin fectant to guard against disease. “I have had more than 100 ealls this summer,” Miss Jacobs said, "from re sponsible persons who desired to pay for a temporary home lor their pets while away on vacations. “It appears comical to establish a boarding house for dogs^and cats, but the proposal has a serious side. Many animals are valuable, and dogs roam ing the streets while owners are away on vacations often become rabid." Miss Jacobs said provisions would be made to give lodging to horses and cows If the demand was great enough. The boarding house would be under supervision of a veterinary- surgeon.— Detroit News.

The world’s largest sandstone quar ries are located In Ohio, a few miles to the south of Lake Erie, In the vicin ity of the towns of North Amherst and Berea.

One of the quarries has been mined to a depth of 1(55 feet in pluces and the distance nround it is u mile and a half.

In cutting a block of sandstone wedges are driven in sidewise at the base of the block, while steam drills bore holes from the top to meet the openings made by the wedgc-s.

In Java, which has a population a third as big as ours, bubonic pingua Is so common that it kills half of tha children before they are live years old.' The .Tuvnnese take this as a matter of course, reports William Ferguson, globe trotter. He found the people of Java with the viewpoint that if the plague didn’t kill half of the children the Island shortly would be unable to sustain the Inhabitants despite Its fer tility.
