French general DeGoutte outlines aims in Ruhr crisis
In Dusseldorf on February 16 General DeGoutte, commander of the Franco-Belgian occupation, insisted Germany must pay its debts and execute the Versailles treaty. He claimed patience, predicted German morale would break, and said negotiations would only resume if Germany fulfilled obligations. He noted a secret pact between German miners and mine owners and warned of long French stay unless debts are paid.

Speaks Highly of This Home Made Cough Remedy
A reader praises a simple home made cough medicine claiming quick relief from coughs and wheeze. The remedy uses double strength peppermint, sugar, and water to make a half pint, suggesting it acts on throat and nasal membranes to clear mucus within hours. The ad-like text boosts confidence with dramatic claims.
Prison reformers push education over punishment
Mr. Osborn argues that old theories of retaliation fail and education is the only practical reform. He advocates inside prison freedom to foster true reform, rejecting force and persuasion as ineffective and stressing training for life. Committees and advisors from Ohio institutions join speakers from the American Social Hygiene Association and National Probation Association as the conference continues.
