Oct. 28.—An official communi que written by premier Poincare and issued at the French foreign office this eveniug teiterates the* French govern ment’s determination to refuse to agree lo anl reductions of the German debt as fixed bv the London conference in May. 1J)21. ' The communique insists that a com mittee of experts, organized within the scope of the reparation commission to investigate Germany’s capacity for pay ment. has no authority to mak p an/ re duction in Germany’s debt. Tt says it considers such a committee will be practically a more addition to the present staff of experts of the repara tion commission. Quoting the Versailles treaty, the communique says the reparation commis sion itself, has no power to grant any reduction in reparations and any re duction stipulating such a measure must be decided by the unanimous vote of the nations interested.

I E A LEIGH CROWD ANGRY OVER BEATING OF LAD | Charles J. Jarvis. Manager of Grant Store. Taken to Police Station For Pro tection. Raleigh, (let. 2i. —Followed bv howl ing hundreds, moved more by the gregar ious spirit perhaps than any purpose to do him wrong. Charles J. Jarvis, mana ger of the local Grant store and one of the most likable merchants in town, was taken to the police station about 10 :.'M) tonight and given protection following 8,1 alleged beating which lie gave to a boy 4n the store. I Ihe exciterfient proved too much to get from from policemen or partisans auy truth by which one could swear. The thing which the crowd thought moved it was Jarvis’ catching a boy named .Tones, ago between 10 and 13 years, stealing, it is alleged from the Grant store. A brok en nose and tom ear was the damage done ti) the pilferer, according to the cr nvd's information, and it tore down the strive as Jarvis was towed in by the police. The boy was nowhere to be seen. After surrounding the city hall sever al minutes the crowd disbanded. Jarvis gave bond for his appearance. A hacknian who took the injured boy home, said his name is Robert Hester, an orphan, delicate and only nine years old. Though bleeding at the nose and his ears torn, it appears that young Hester’s nose is uot broken. Manager Jarvis was later escorted ihome by policemen. Though, an Irish Roman Catholic, the crowd seemed to have no worse feeling against him than a desire to beat him good. For that rea son police would not Jurn him out. There was no effort to force the door at the station. The haekmnn who took the boy home said the youngster's companion stole the shirt which figured in the assault and that Jarvis was beating Hester when two boys pulled him off. Jarvis, thoroughly likable fellow, head of the scouts and or ganizer of the big trade festivals of Ral eigh, is popular and the savagery of his assault, if it is as represented, appalls ev erybody. He sought police protection while imprisoned at his store, the crowd gathering outside to catch him when he came out. Six-Day Bicycle Races In Chicago. Chicago.
