BLOCKADE OF RUHR
VALLEY IS COMPLETE
By Associated t'res*
Duesseldorf, Feb. 2.—The blockade
of Ruhr valley from within was abso-
lutely complete today. Not a single
ton of coal or coke has entered Ger-
many from Ruhr In the past thirty-six
hours, French authorities announced.
The French have guns commanding
every line Into Germany, and directors
of the railroads have been Informed
that any locomotive attempting to es-
cape will be fired upon.
The French government will be ob-
liged to take a severe attitude toward
the German government It It continues
to tolerate the molestation of French
subjects such as occurred at Koenigs-
berg In the last two days, the foreign
offlc esaid.
Major General Allen, who command-
ed the American forces that occupied
Germany and which were recently
withdrawn, was directed by the state
department at Washington to discon-
tinue unofficial relations with the
Rhineland high commission, said a Co-
blenz dispatch.
Food supplies are getting low and
hunger threatens Ruhr.
GERMAN LABOR
APPEALS TO AMERICA
FOURTEEN KILLED |
IN MEXICO CITY RIOT
Ut Associated Frost
■M
Mexico City, Feb. 2.—It is estimated
that fourteen persons were kitted and
more than forty injured In a street
here at noon Thursday in front
labor headquarters following the
lag of passing street cars by
“Beds," who resented the mainten-
ance of street car traffic by men who
reached an agreement last Sunday
with the tramway company to end the
strike, which had -been In progress for
some time.
Soldiers guarding the cars answer-
ed the fire of the snipers, and the
shooting soon became general. All the
downtown stores were Immediately
closed and traffic was suspended.
Troops were thrown into the affected
area nad this evening are patrolling
the streets with orders to kill in the
event of further disturbances.
The trouble today had’its origin in
smoldering hostility between rival rad-
ical factions within the ranks of the
street car employes. Trouble had been
brewing more or less forcefully during
the past twelve days, especially be-
cause of threats issued by the “Reds,”
who did not recognize the adjustment
of the differences between the strik-
ers »>i.d the railway company effective
by the “Yellows,” as the men who re-
turned to work were called.

Washington, Feb. 2.—Prohibition
Commissioner Haynes informed Secre-
tary Mellon today that the thing that
impressed him most during his recent
inspection trip to the west and south-

pecially, had taken steps to safeguard
the lives of prohibition agents, Haynes
said, -by prescribing prison sentences
for liquor law violators found carry-
ing weapons.

Berlin, Feb. 2.—Organized German
labor, speaking for more than half the
population of the German republic
views the American congress as the
logical tribunal to which to address an
appeal, declaring this "American honor
asserted at this time can save us and
the world from the inevitable disas-
ter."
This is the keynote of a message
which was forwarded to Washington
carrying the signatures of the chair-
men of the executive boards of the
General Federation of Trade Unions,
the Federation of Christian Labor Un-
ions, the League of Clerical Employes
and the Independent Federation of
Liberal Trade Unions, which embrace
a registered membership of 12,000,000
male and female workers.
Labor’s action Is the direct outcome
of apprehensions with which the situa-
tion growing out of the occupation of
the Ruhr Is viewed by the federation
leaders, regardless of their political
affiliations, and the telegraphic appeal
to both houses of congress Is a brief-
ly and Informally worded message re-
calling the German workmen’s wil-
lingness to submit to complete disar-
mament and their prompt readiness to
adopt a democratic constitution In re-
turn for the American promise that
right and justice should prevail In the
post-war adjustments.
The labor leaders assert that their
action was undertaken Independent of
any influence from official sources,
which it Vas stated, would first learn
of the appeal to the American congress
in case It was reported back from
Washington. Neither has the Ger-
man press been apprised of the unique
procedure. *
"We decided to go straight to the
official representatives of the Ameri-
can people with our appeal, and pre-
ferred to dispense with official or dip-
lomatic intervention,” Paul Grassman,
vice chairman of the general federa-
tion’s executive board, informed The
Associated Press. "The message was
drafted at a joint session of the exec-
utive heads of the four federations and
it represents the feeling of alarm with
which labor already is contemplating
the situation after three weeks of the
Ruhr occupation. There is something
more than the fate of the Ruhr basin
at stake. If Germany is still a land
of apparent order and organization It
is only because the dozen cool-headed
men in charge of organized labor’s
ranks have prevented the workers In
all lines from becoming dangerously
restive. •
