_ _ _,_ y Ifo-Iliillo Invasion

(spoolaite Tlfllaf Guardian)

PARIS, -May 32.--Bhoulda refusal by

the Germans 'toj sign the treaty lead to a further invasion of' Germany. the mslloeutre' wdll -be‘osrnied out almost auth-ely'liy French troops. By June 3, unless .p`li'eil`ent§ orders are changed, there will ‘be only two American di- visions lb_ft_in tlw Occupied area, the Fifth, ixtll and Seventh begin their withdrawal towards 'France tomor- row, while the Fourth Division starts moving westward on May 22 This will leave only the First. Second and Third Divisions. one of which will quit German territory by June 3.

Msrbhul' Fpcll. on this, his -first tour

of the lone of occupation. is now nr- rangiag at Ooblenz- and Cologne just what part the American -and British forces will play in any eastward ad- vance. He is also completing- his pro- gramme by which`the French will lake over af large part of the Ameni- can area in~___/the first days ot June. whether the treaty be signed- or not. l=ael»'¢ Movements.

It is expected that Marshal Foch

will remain in -the Rhineland for some time. l-its absence from Paris at this. time is considered not altogether un- welcome to the~Clemenceau Cabinet, although tho censor has been busily engaged erasing the_ name of Foch from' euloglstic newspaper articles. Never -before. _even during the war, has the French censorship shown lt- self so eager to prevent news of thc ruarshlvl’s movements from reaching tbe public, although the German press carries long accounts of his activities and intentions.

Despite -the possibility of further militsry` intervention against Ger- msnyptlle clamor for demobllization is steadily increasing in France. Tile militarlstlc Echo de Pal-is seeks to sooth the clsmorous by figures, indi- cating that by April 20th 2,750,000 Frenchman were demobilized as against 2,000,000 Bnitlilh, 1.600.000 Americans and 1‘.500.000‘l-tallans.

in less than one .month from the

time the signatures are nfllxed to the peace* terms the newspaper adds, tive lllore classes, those of 1907,‘1908. 1909, 1910~al1d 1011, will be liberated. Tile Echo de Paris carefully refrains frolu mentioning. however] how imuch larger the French army was than any of the other three. ln proportion to the number of Frenchman under arms. France has demobillzed a far smaller percentage than any of the other powers. .

Would Separate From Prussia. Colncident with Marshall`Foch‘s np-

pearance in the Rhineish provinces reports reach here of a strengthening of the movements forseparation of the llhinelands -from Prussia. Last Sun- day all the German /preachers in ter- ritory ocoupied by one of” the Ameri- can corps voiced a demand for inde~ pendencs 'from Prussian domzinatlon. There is no evidence. however, that the Rhinelanders desire to become completely autonomous. their attach- ment to Germany as s whole being as wsrln as over.

_ Father Murphy

The many fl'-lends of Rev John 'l`.

Murphy. Parish Priest of Frectown. have learned with deep regret of his death at the Charlottetown Hospital, early on the morning of May 23rd

Father Murphy was a native of Kill

kara, being the son of the -late Thomas Murphy and .Rose MncCabe of that place. -He received his early educatf ion at Kinkora, and subsequently cn tered St. Dunstalfs College where he began his classical course, at the com- pletion of whl.cll, feeling called to the higher life, he went to 'Rome to study for the priesthood. He studied Tlleo logy at the college of the Propaganda and also at the Canadian College, and was ordained priest in the Eternal City on April let, 1899. ;

On his return to his native province

he was appointed to the teaching stuff of St. Dunstsn’s College, wllerc llc rc maincd till the -following year when he was transferred to the Cathedral; but his health failing, he was obliged after a fcw months to remove to a milder climate. As a result he spclli several years nt Tacoma, lWssllilll:t0l1~ Returning to ‘Charlottetown in 1909. he resumed his profcssorshl-p at St. Dull stan's College: but after scvvrlll years residence there. was again on llgcd to leave on account' of ill~llealth\ much to the rogrot of both Professors and- Students, with whom he was dc-

slvely at 'rracadlo and Frectown. und did not resign. his'positlon till about two weeks previous to his deatll. when he entered the Charlottetown Hospital. Here, notwithstanding the best med- ical sklll and asslduous care. he pass- ed peacefully away to the home bo-

yond. _

The late lihttllor Murphy was il iiillil

_Nnmd by rr deep spirituality; and his demise at the early “ge ot i'orty~eiShf. would be s. matter or deeper .ferret did we not feel that in a short time he measured ull t0 *D0 9f““‘iI"d "I me -Divine Architect Who lnust ever uchgf the wood ere lie oan~limn fwltll lt." ' . _ ~

Government Purchases if not Made in England Will Be Made in 0v°r~ seaa Dominlong.

(special to The Guardian

LONDON, May 23.--Second reading

was given in the House of Commons today tothe Government's finance bill after motion had been rejected which objected to the policy of Im- perial preference and the absence of a levy on capital. Mr. Chamberlain ill a lengthy speech colnhatted the politics of the Liber- als regarding the preference. He said the preference was to pervadc ollr whole policy. Ho lnetanced that pref- erence wouldihg given in cases where capital was to be expended ill one of the Dominlons. (chcers); also that the Govemment had decided two years ago that purchases in then: bc- llalf, if not made in Great Britain, would be made in the Empire ovcr» seas rather than in other countries and; the Government had recenly in- structed all its departments to give effective preference in Government contracts to overseas Dominlons, both as regards offers to tender and price. (Cheers.)
