remark-

Mr.

The

be

District
Chief Espersen
tells
us that
no order
was
issued
to
the
police
to
this
effect,
hut
that
he had instructed
the
men
on best
there
to po itely request
any
larce
trucks
or noisy waggons
to take
gnother
course,
It was
not the order
against
traflic
which
struck
us
so
much
but
the deliberate
dis-
tinct.on
shown
between
persons
which
certaimy
reflects
discreditably
on the n.an
guiity of it,
and
invites
noedless
eriticism
of the
po
ice department.
We
want
(o soe
the policemen
carryving
out
their
orders
fairly
and
sqaarely
regardiess
of
per-
sonality.
It will gain for
them
that pub-
lic
respect
and
cooperation
whieh
will
make
for
a
safer
and
more
law-abiding
community,

TELEGRAMS,.
ST.
CROIX STATION.
Brussels,
Aug.
27th.- The
usefulness
of exchanging diplomatic
notes
over
the
reparations
question
has been
exhausted.
The Allied Governments
have
compleied
their study
of the
prcblem
and
the time
has
arrived
for
resumption
of direct
conversations
botween
the
governments.
These
are
the conclusions
of
Belgium’s
reply
to the latest
note frem
the British
Foreign
Secretary.
The
vreply
covers
twenty five
typewritten
pages.
While
not indicating
a time or piace for the
con-
ference
it advocates,
the B=lgian
Govern-
ment
expresses
the hope that,
1n
as
murh
as neither
M. Poincare
nor Mr.
Baldw:in
seems
hostile
to the idea,
direct
negotia-
tions
on tle
question,
which
has
been
greatly
clarified
by
the
documents
ex-
changed,
shouid
be
scheduled
as
soon
as p.ssible.
