BRIVK, France.—Speaking at the unveiling of a monument to the war dead hero Sunday after noon, Premier Poincare again came out with the declaration that the Treaty of Versailles set lho amount of reparations to be paid by Germany and his speech did not show the slightest varia tion from previous statements. Tho premier said the experts’ committee-of the reparation com mission must not be allowed to become the indirect moans of rais ing the question of the amount of Germany’s debt, nor must France be despoiled of her guarantee prior to the total payment of reparations. France, M. Poincare declared, would remain within thq frame work of the treaty “before, during and after ’ the work of the ex perts’ committee. pie of a community want -them enforced, according to Judge Samuel H.

People who have clothes • that will not be worn again are requested to send them to the Red Cross rooms in the court house. This clothing is badly needed now and Miss McGin- ley, the nur.se, urges that the good people of the city act at once. Sunday afternoon a little 'girl at one of the Sunday schools was absent for the first time since last winter and one of h6r friends told the teacher that she couldn’t come because it was wet and cold and she didn't have any good shoes or warm clothes. She has tuberculosis and it is for people like this the cloth ing is wanted. Send your old clothes, those that are warm and still, use ful. to the Red Cross rooms at once. “Man of the Hour” in Rhineland Republic HOPE REVIVED FOR M. Poincare made no direct ref- crencb to tho question of limita tion of powers of the experts’ committee, which has been the subject of much argument during the past two or three days. In fact, he never referred directly to the United States, except when he said he had made it a, point to leave no •■oom for ambiguity on these matters in, the interests of France and “the allies and asso ciate*/' ' Whenever he used the word “ca pacity” the premier always placed • the word “present” before it. In his speech M.

BIRMINGHAM, All—Birming. ham’s polico redoubled their ef forts Monday in an attempt to solve the city’s latest axe assault, committed Sunday night in downtown alley when a negro wo man and W. T. Conway, were the victims. The woman died while Conway's life is hanging in the balance. The death of the woman brought tho total of the murders in this alley to seven, while fifteen deaths have been recorded as the result of assault# upon keepers of small shops and members of their families since the ok* murder wave began. Th-s alley‘in which the latest murder occurred has been given the name of "Marfler Alley” since seven killings have taken place there. In the former murders police, while securing some alight.clewa have never been able to apprehend tho persons responsible. Various theories have been advanced, two of them being that the killings have been carried on by an organ ised gang, thought to bo negroes, the other theory being that the murders have been committed by separate parties who resort to the axe, thinking to throw suspicion on other persons.
