Williams, highway commmlsslon director; Carl Cue, deputy State auditor, and Fred Van Nuys, counsel for Bracken. Bracken said: “The auditor holds Mr. Leah's legal opinions In the very highest esteem, but his opinions are not court orders and In the last analysis the auditor must be governed by the court.” In order to relieve the Immediate needs of the commission, the State finance board authorized the general fund to borrow SIOO,OOO from the auto theft fund.

‘FRANCE SPURRED TO INVADE RUHR BY FEAR OF RUIN’ X Dr, John W, Herring Cites Observations in Recent Tour, Picturing the Ruhr as "a gridiron” with the human race seated on the bleachers watching the most unique battle of the ages, Dr. John W. Herring of the First Congregational Church, Terre Haute, this afternoon told ot his recent visit to Germany and France at the opening session of Indiana Congregational ministers and delegates at Union Congregational Church. Dr. Herring recently returned from Europe where he sought the French and German viewpoint on the Ruhr. “I spent a week In Paris getting the French viewpoint,” he declared. "France feels that Germany will not pay. She's lying down on the Job, France claims. She is deliberately evading a debt of honor, France feels. France Facing Money Crisis "France Is facing financial ruin. She la spending fifty billion a year with a revenue that Is only twenty billion. She has debts at home and abroad twice as gTeat as at the end of the war. Germany must pay reparations or France goes bankrupt." Dr. Herring stated that France feels that America and England have deserted her, and that “America has broken "Wilson's guarantee of her safety by abandoning Europe.” He stated that France contends that they are “fenced to protect the Ruhr for self protection." “I went to the Ruhr and was American enough to want to hear both sides. German labor leaders contend that Poincare does not want Germany to pay, and that he refused Germany’s offer when she volunteered to send men to rebuild the devastated area. German Leaders* View "The German leaders contend that Poincare has done everything to cripple them and make It impossible to pay.” The speaker stated that German labor leaders contend that "In spite of all difficulties, Germany has paid ten times os much as the Indemnity' of 1870.” A noted writer told Dr. Herring that "If the nutter were left to the economists of Europe Instead of to the politicians, the whale matter would >e settled before tea time.” Fifty Indiana Congregational ministers and laymen are attending.
