I. i ILLINOIS POSSEMEN CAPTURE THREE ESCAPED CONVICTS Fugitives Kidnaped and Robbed Two Deputies Before Being Taken. Special to the Poet-DieDatch. GREENUP.

111.. Dec 5. Three escaped convicts from the penal far mat aVndalia. 111., "were captured near Casey. 111., yegterday by young men from Greenup, part of a Sheriffs posse.

The trio of fugitives had held up two Deputy Sheriffs, robbed them of their money and revolvers and kidnaped one of them before they were captured. According to reports received here, two Deputy Sheriffs encountered two of the convicts and arrested them, but were not aware that there was a third fugitive. As they were preparing to return to the penal farm the third convict appeared, armed with an automatic pistol, and held them up. He compelled one of the officers to get into the car and then the convicts drove away. About a mile from Casey, they ran the car into a ditch.

The convicts then hired a farmer to drive them on, and even passed through one of the posses which, seeing them with the farmer, supposed they were his friends. However, a salesman saw them in Casey and, suspecting they were the fugitives, hurried back and told the posse. The men were overtaken by possemen. Including Leonard Trent and Hiley Goodwin. Surrounded by cars full of ex-servicemen, heavily armed, they surrendered.

Four automatic pistols were found on them. FRENCH SENATOR SUGGESTS PAYMENT OF DEBT TO U. S. Proposes That Interest Be Remitted for Ten Years From Date of Armistice. Copyright.

1923. by the Press and Pulitier Publishing tha New York World and the Post-Dispatch. PARIS. Dec. 5.

An Influential voice, that of Senator Taufflieb, is raised today counseling France to make immediate arrangement for settling her debt to the United btatea. 'Let us set an example of probity," he urges. He thinks the United States would prove as generous now as France was In 1782 when shw waived for six years interest on money she had loaned to America during the rei'olution. Gen. Taufflieb suggests that "Washington re-mlt interest on the French debt for 10 years from the armistice.

Besides that he expects "American common sense will make a distinction between sums loaned for the purchase of foodstuffs and mounts spent on war material jtihzed in winning the common ictory," which would reduce the debt enormously. Taufflieb suggests liquidation of the debt in 60 years, with 3 per cent Interest and of 1 per cent sinking fund. He argues such a settlement would set France's debtors a good example, strengthen French foreign policy and improve business. He even suggests such a settlement would perhaps lead to American consent to general revision of interallied debts. "At any rate, let us make the first move," he saj-s.

FOREST RESERVATION IN SOUTHERN MISSOURI URGED Special to the Poet-Dispatch. WASHINGTON.

Dec. 5. The National Forest Reservation Commission, in Its annual leport to Congress, recommends the purchase by the Federal Government of additional cut-over forest lands "with a view to demonstrating methods of management to private nTS The names Southern Missouri as one of the sections in which the establishment of forest reservations would be desirable. Two million acres of land have been purchased by the Commission in the Eastern States under the law for the protection of navigable streams against erosion. By a coincidence, the author of this law, former Senator and now Secretary of Y-ar Weeks is head of the Commission which cdmlnlsters it.

As already told in the Post-Pispatch, the Commission has laid out two "purchase units in the Ozarks of Missouri, but Is unable to proceed with its rlans because of the failure of the Missouri Legislature to pass an enabling act. In States where purchases have been made large tracts of waste lands have been reforested and made public playgrounds without expense to the States. A favorable report on the Ozark project, vthlch was first surveyed by tho Government nine years ago. recently was made by W. YV.

Ashe, Secretary of the Commission, after a personal Inspection of the lands marked for purchase. MRS. SANGER OPERATES BIRTH CONTROL CLINIC ON FIFTH AV. Public Announcement Asserts 00 Women Have Received Care in Last 11 Months. NEW YORK.
