Officials would nut indicate whether they had any reason to expect a further communication from Paris prior' to the actual occupation of the Ruhr by French forces.

It evidently was desired in Washington, however, that the American public should understand that the Washington government had lost no opportunity to present its conclusions and suggestions on the reparations difficulty in such fashion that the French authorities full understood what had been proposed, including the direct intimation that adoption of the American plan might well lead the way to economic help for Europe, from the United State's. Germany Will Be Given a Hearing PARIS. Jan. S. (By A.P.) The meeting of the reparations commission Monday to determine whether Germany defaulted in her deliveries of coal in 1922, found the French governmant going ahead with its plans for a coercive movement in the Ruhr valley.

The plans themselves, still were the property of high officials. Louis Barthou. replying to Germany's objection that her experts might not reach Paris in time to appear before Monda'y's session of the commission, asserted that that body was not obliged to hear the German spokesman anyway.

INVASION OF RHINE BORDER IS UNDER WAY (Conintude from page 1) tachments and from that center French troops would spread through the Ruhr valley. For all this business-like attitude and the pulse of war drums along the Rhine border, it was believed France would proceed cautiously, and that actual invasion cannot yet bo said to have begun. France wants to learn more of America's intentions regarding her troops, and about what Britain is going to do next, before taking irrevocable action. One thousand picked American doughboys and 100 officers stationed here want to stay. French troops in the vicinity wero ordered to remain in quarters to prevent clashes with inhabitants of the occupied region and the doughboys had to do double duty.

But with pay running over three million marks a year and a pride in their participation in the latest European war game, the Americans are' keen for staying on. Pessimists in the ranks figure they'll be homeward bound in a month, however.

STATE AGE RATE Michigan is one of the few large areas in which the elderly- portion of the population is more numerous than the youthful. Jhe standard age distribution for civi lized communities shows that ordinarily only 48 per cent of the inhabitants are more than 25 years of age. In Michigan 53 per cent of the residents are older than that, according to figures just compiled by the Department of Health. This phenomenon, according to Dr.

B. M. Olin, commissioner of the department is due chiefly to the enormous industrial expansion of the state in the past decade. Health conditions have little to do with it. "Michigan's population is composed of older people," said Dr.

Olin. "for the same reason that pioneer communities are. In the old days few families emigrated. Most of the pioneers were men and women who had not taken root in their home communities. Today the high wages paid in Michigan auto shops and subsidiary plants are attracting skilled mechanics whose ages range chiefly from 25 years upward.

Comparatively few of them have families." PROPRIETOR OF N. Y. ROADHOUSE KILLED FREEPORT. X. Jan.

Safe Milk Forlnfamtt, Invalid a ChiUrtl- The Original Food-Drinle for AO Ages RichMUlc, Malted Grain Extract in Pow lerbTabletforms. NouriihlDg-Noceokiaf tf Avoid Imitations and Snbstitnta 0 MAN IN RESCUE 1 11 jzhiM'zm ii Cities Made Victims of Pro posed Gas Levy If Lansing motorists are to pay a gasoline tax for road maintenance, part of this proposed tax should revert back to the. city to aid in keeping the city streets in repair, John McClellan, city attorney contends. With a so-called "farmer legis lature and the proposal of a tax on motor fuel for aiding in road maintenance throughout the country.

Lansing stands well in line to pay possibly 90 per cent of this special tax for road upkeep, when all of this tax would applied to the roads in the county outside of the city, the city attorney pointed out. While ic is true that the city motorists do drive on country roads perhaps as much as the rural automobile owners still the remains that, if a gasoline consumption tax is required for road maintenance, certainly the upkeep of the. roads of the city deserve consideration in the distribution of such a tax, he con tends. Use City Streets A large percentage of the auto mobiles, and espec.aliy the heavier vehicles owned by a number of local contractors, seldom leave the streets of Lansing and the tax exacted from such operation should not be diverted to the care of roads other than city roads, stated. That similar legislation has been effected in the past with but lit tle apparent interest shown by the residents of the larger cities, was hinted by the city attorney.

The present ciocr' tax law was cited as a specific instance where the cost of collections of such taxes in the city devolves upon the city, whereas the whole levy is accredited to the county. Another instance was pointed to as the land contract tax and the tax on mortgages. Here, the attorney maintains, practically all the business in the county in volving land contracts and mort' gages is transacted 3n the cities dealing with city property. Still the proceeds trofji such taxation goes to the county. This in itself is no trivial sum in the course of a normal year, he asserts, since either of these taxes amounts to about $3 on each $1,000 of business transacted, uu of which is lost to the city.

A complete revamping of the old electric light wiring at the Ingham County Poor farm has been begun by the 'Barker-Fowler Electric Co.

The other day Secretary Hughes, out of a clear sky, proposed that a commission be appointed to find the facts in the reparations controversy. This is looked upon as a reflection on men like Thomas W.

Lamont. Norman H. Davis and Bernard M. Baruch and the American economic experts at Taris who made a thorough study of the question and who have since kept in close touch with the developments and are in a position to render advico on the intricate details of the problem. Xot one of these economic ex perts has been called into consulta tion by the administration here and the democratic leaders are be ginning to think the advice of these men is being tabooed solely because they are democrats.

Some of thse experts are author' ity for the statement that not a single new fact has been adduced since the subject was examined at the Paris peace conference and except for the political jockeying between the European powers the whole thing is just where it was three years ago. It is pointed out that the French and British now are in agreement as to the amounts that "Germany should pay. namely the twelve billion dollars of A and B. bonds and that the true quarrel is over the division of the sums that Germany will be able to pay.
