Judge Price received a unique

The card was postmarked Au

The message on the card wish
ed the Judge a Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year, and writ
ten in long hand at the bottom
was this inscription:
“ .. and I promise not to over

Then suddenly her weeping

She turned and looked behind her
at the window, in dreadful se

the new Congress.
But defeated Senator Ball of

Such a step, he told a reporter,
might alienate the “middle class

that both Senators Taft of Ohio

THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA -
|, The three senatorg—all friend
ly to Taft — aktsp proposed that
I*he chairman of the committee, as
well ae¢ the head and secretary of
}the party caucus and the floor
leader, be elected by the confer
{ence of all Republican senators,
| These four automatically would
{become members of the poliey
making group. The eonference
chairman — a post which has
been filled by Senator Millikin of
Colorado — would appoint the
!other seven membe.s, subject ‘to
conference approval.,
Counter Plan
Senator Morse of Oregon, who
said he and others “represent the
gLibeml Wing of the Republican
party,” countered this with a plan
that all- members of the policy
group be elected by secret ballot
after they had been nominated by
a committee on committees.
Morse’s proposal is expected to
be taken up by the insurgents
when they meet, probably Thurs
day, in advance of Monday's full
conference session.
Dall didn’t refer specifically to
the Morse plan or to the peace
bid, .but he said “political logic
demands that the party reject its
would-be leaders” who, he said,
have tried to turn the GOP “into
a pale replica of the New Deal
| party.”

eager desire to suspend “businecs

System Setup By Western Powers
To Bar Ruhr Valley War Production
! BY ALEX SINGLETON :
LONDON, Dec. 28.—(AP)—The Western Powers set
up today a strict international control system to bar Ger
many’s industrial Ruhr valley from war production.
| The Ruhr was ozdered to pro
duce solely for peace. :
' Their decision was announced
- in a formal commurique as the
- climax of a six-week conference
. here attended by representatives
iof the United States, Britain,
;IFrance, the Netherlands, Belgium
- and Luxembourg..
| It contained no admission of
lßussiu as a partner in the inter
' national contrel board to be
ri known as the “Ruhr Authority.”
,l Have Place on Board
The agreement offered Ger
* many a place on the board as
!'soon’ as it develops a legal gov
'!ernment. The Germans will "have
;!three votes —the same as the
| United States, Britain and France
|will have and two- more.than
‘ieach of the Benelux ecountries
, | which it overran in World War
lITWO.
It set up an international sys-
L {tem of inspection—the framework
» | for an. industrial police—to keep
[ {the Ruhr from .becoming once
b fagain ~a war-making industrial
machine as it did under Hitler
and Kaiser Wilhelm, AL ey
It left unsettled the dynantite
laden question of ultimate own
ership of the Ruhr’s industries—
a plain concesison to Framnce,
The French want international
ownership. Britain prefers Ger
man public ownership. The Unit
[ ed States favors private enter-
S [ prise,
1 The agreement was for an in
| definite term, lcaving open tne
| possibility the Ruhr might for
,|ever continue under internaticnal
. | supervision,
Victim of Aggréssion
’ This, too, was a concession to
1, the French — often the victim of
> German aggression—who argued
with success that Germany's in
dustrial might was developed in
(| the coal, coke and steel produc
tion of the Ruhr’s concentrated
industries. &
The communique said the
meeting was ‘“held in a friendly
almosphere throughout,” and that
|it “carefully examined all aspects
lof the problems invoived.”
| The communique announced
the conference’s “threefold objec
3tive”: .
l 1. “To assure the disarmament
and demilitarization of Ger
many.” g
2. “Tg further the recovery of
the countries of Europe, includ
ing a democratic Germany.” 1
3. “To promgte that intimate
association of their economic life
!which in the last analysis alone
can assure a.peaceful and* pros
perous Europe.”
The communique itself was is
sued simultaneously in the six
jcapitals of the conference coun
‘tries along with a 6,000 word’
itext of the history-making docu
‘ment designed to chain the Ruhr’s
‘War—making powers.
| Spells Out Purpose
' _ Simply but firmly, the agree
yment spelled ou* in its prcamble
the purpose of the meeting:
| “That the resources of the Ruhr
shall not in the future be used
for the purpose of aggression but
shall be used in the interest of
peace . . .)”
i First of all it cerated the “In
ternational Authority for the
Ruhr” — its members to include
the six countries which partici
pated in the conference plus Ger
many.
Then it set out, step by step,
1 the functions of the authority, the
voting powers, a clause that a
majority vote will govern decis
ions, the fact that the chairman
ship will rotate every six months.
i It ruled that the authority will
hold indefinite responsibility for
division of coal, coke and steel
from the Rubr as between. Ger
man consumption and export.
| The communique Ilaid down
firmly these basic rules over fu
ture control of the Ruhr:
‘ Three Basic Rules 6
i 1. “There shall not be allowed '
to develop or be restored any
pattern of ownership in the"
Ruhr coal, coke or steel indus
tries, or trade and marketing
agreements among such indus
tries, which would constitute ex-;
cessive concentration of economicl

Weather Will Favor
New Years Activitie
(EDITOR’S NOTF—The Banner-Herald is the exclusive yb.
seriber to the George J. McCormack Long-Range Weather Fore
casts in this arvea.) :
Forecasts made on December 20 state that on th,
whole, general weather conditions including minimun
precipitation should favor New Year’s activities, includ
ihg travel.
The McCormack Long Range
forecasts have been correct within
a few days of almost everything
they predicted for this section of
the country between September
and December. On September 22
the service stated that severe cold
would hit in this area on Christ
mas. It definitely hit—the day
after Christmas.
The winter forecasts that have
just been released (forecast on or
before December 20) prediet
stormy weather with light preci
pitation in areas surrounding
Georgia for the first of January.
Taking the United States as a
whole there will be excessive
cloudiness, damp and wet weather
in the coastal areas, with corres

the interior. gt

2. “Persons who have been, or
'muy be, found to have furthered
ithe aggressive designs of the Na
!tionu] Socialist Party (Nazis) do
not hold positions of ownership
or control in the Ruhr's basic
industries.” s
Neither the communique nor
the agreement contained any
specific reference to plang for
settind up a system of -interna
tional police to patrol the Ruhr
plans. Diplomatic sources said
L this will be .dohe under the
“Ruhr Authority.”
Yet, again and again, both the
commungiue and the agreement
itself spelled out the authority
for that check-up system.

Predicted for that area by the
Long Range service is a stagnant

but also of the proposed North
Atlantic military alliance. 1t si,
however, an’' 3im -which can be
realized, American officials are
convinced, only by inereasingly
