TIMES MAN SAYS RUHR IS BITTER WITH HATE

Riding Whip Is Symbol of 'French Kultur’ in Invaded District, According to Essen Citizens —Anger Is Nearing Bursting Point, The United Press sent Carl D. Groat into the Ruhr valley to set firstJsand impressions from an American reporter s point oi view of just what the situation is under the French occupation. His first dispatch with its eyewitness description of how the invaded towns look and how the people feel about it, follows. Another disptch will be carried tomorrow. By CARL D. GROAT Copyright, by United Press ESSEN, Feb. 19.—“ The riding whip is the symbol of French kultur in the Ruhr,” reads a Socialist poster on a well in an Essen street. It expresses as well as anything else the bitterness, pent up to the very bursting point, with which citizens of the Ruhr regard the invasion. It is believed throughout the newly occupied area that the French are trying to stir up trouble and provide an excuse for ieclaration of the sharpest martial law.

An automobile trip through an expensive section of the Ruhr during rhe week-end shows that if this is the French purpose they will be accommodated. The population is humming a hymn of hate through gritted teeth, despite utmost efforts of labor leaders. government chiefs and others to maintain order. The Socialis poster referred to above warns the populace to avoid provoking the French, adding that inventions of passives will only conjure immeasurable harm to our cause.” French Are Nervous The French are extremely nervous. They certainly are rough on individuals. I had an opportunity to see this at Gelsenkirchen, which is overrun with ! soldiers, a “sharpened state of siege” ! prevailing. Many companies of in- * fan try and artillery, supported bytanks, were encamped there. Besides the regular troops of occupation, rei inforcements had been poured into the town to enforce collection of the 100,000,000 marks fine which the authorities had sworn not to pay voluntarily, hut which the French eventually confiscated. Upon my arrival at the outskirts of Gelsenkirchen a French sentry, about 100 yards ahead, gave the customarysignal, and my driver, a German from Essen, slowed down. Our car skidded on the icy roadway and did not halt just where the senry desired, whereupon the latter cocked his rifle and jabbed a long, thin bayonet threateningly at the chauffeur. The driver was scared out of his wits, and a sedate British correspondent, with me in the back seat, who came within the line of fire designated by tne sentry’s rifle, was shocked beyond measure. Grumbling, the sentry summoned a corporal, who, after examining our papers, allowed us to proceed. Similar treatment, except for the rifle-cocking incident, befell the party seven times in the course of a brief tour of the city. We were treated with particular scorn until the patrols learned our party consisted of Americans and British, whereupon they were all smiles. Row With Bar Maid The guards at first ignored our passes and insisted we enter a saloon where they were making their headquarters. I saw several poilus rowing violently with the bar maid over the price of a drink which was not excessive and which was plainlyposted. Here In Gelsenkirchen the French apparently were fearful that citizenry are smuggling weapons into the town. They- searched all packages. Arriving at Essen I found the in- j habitants living miserably between the German boycott and the French closing of restaurants and some shops. We lived scantily; meat twice a! week, remainder of the time nothing but vegetables and French cognac. Incense Population On all sides I hear stories of how the French are striking citizens with their titling crops or dropping the butts of rifles on the toes of passersby, Incensing the population. The French claim to have broken the shop keeper’s boycott on Saturday. Three shop keepers were arrested and the Invaders said that others had relented from their decision to sell nothing to the troops. If the boycott was broken. It was resumed soon afterwards. These West Phalians never before endured having military quartered with them and they are mad clear through. Stolid Heinrich suffers from having his toes bumped with rifle butts, and tells his grouch to his frau. Perhaps little Otto comes in with a story of how he w-as whipped with a riding crop on the way home from school for making faces at the guards. The neighbors sympathize and repeat the stories. , Blood May Flow Small wonder many predict that the Ruhr, snow clad and scot flecked, may soon be stained with blood. Kssenitos are sneering and mocking at the French. A delighted mob gathered and jeered at a couple of French Polius who were vainly trying to tear down a firmly glued antiFrench poster. The troops ate maddest at the boycott that prevents them buying cigars and cigarettes. Several times I saw a blue clad Poilu, his face almost the color of hisj uniform, expostulating, cursing, storming and vowing vengeance, trying vainly to buy cigarettes.
