London, Feb. 26—The labor party’s
policy regarding the Ruhr was dis
closed Monday by a resolution which
will be proposed in the House of Com

The resolution provides for the ap
pointment of a committee representing

a peace which will not be militaristic.
Yank Weds German
Bride Under Dutch
Flag; Happy In U. S.
Los Angeles, Cal., Feb. 26 (A. P.)—
Immigration laws were responsible
for the expected wedding today on
the Dutch motorship Dinteldyk in
Los Angeles harbor of Fraulein Mila
general, of Treves, Germany, and
Damon B. Brodie, .overseas veteran,
of Long Beach, Cal.
Immigration officials told Brodie,
they would not permit Fraulein Gen
eral to land on American soil unless
she was married to him and therefore
became an American citizen and the
Los Angeles clerk refused to issue
him a marrige license unless his
prospective wife accompanied him to
the license bureau. .
Then entered Radion Captain Keys,
veteran skipper of the Dinteldyk on
which Fraulein General is a passenger
and due here today, who suggested a
way out. He said he would perform
the necessary ceremony aboard the
vessel over the flag of The Nether
lands if Brodie would board the Dint
eldyk today and Brodie said lie would.
And now they are happy in the Unit
ed States.
REPORT BIG
MAIL THEFT
New York, Feb. 26 (A. P.)—Theft
of thousands of dollars of registered
mail from a New York Central train
between Syracuse and Albany several
days ago was reported by authorita-*'
tive sources today. The robber, it
was said, was smilar to that in Grand
Central Terminal Sunday.
The robbers, it was said, evidently
worked at leisure in the registered
mail, rifling the packages and casting
the wrappers out of the windows.
Later, track walkers found wrappers
strewn along the rightofway, many
of which, it was said, bore European
addresses. The robbed train was east
bound.
The similarity of this robbery and
the one Sunday in the Grand Cen
tral terminal, when the Chicago fast
mail train, composed of 10 steel cars,
was robbed, led to teh belief that
both were committed by the same
bandits.

CUtSHJI POLICY
Socialists See Menace in
Richswehr and Want
Troops Disbanded—
Nationalists Active.
BY KARL H, VON WIEGAND,
Universal Service Correspondent.
Special Wireless Dispatch.
Berlin, Feb. 26.—The secret nation
alistic groups, ignoring the govern
ment decrees ordering them to dis
solve their organizations, continue
their activities and threaten to divide
Germany into two v:wft political
camps, with the socialists and pac
ifistic elements on the one side and
the nationalists on the other.
The socialist faction of the reich
stag meets Tuesday noon to discuss
whether Minister of National De
fense Gessler should not be over
thrown.
Charge Army Is Menace.
Some go so far as to demand that
Germany’s whole army of 100,000
known as the relchswehr, be dis
solved. The socialists charge that It
is useless as a defensive force against
a foreign foe, and that as a domestic
institution it is constantly a menace
to the republic because of its na
, tionalistlc tendencies.
Deputy Levi introduced a resolu
tion in the socialist party group in
the relchstag to strike Dr.* Gessler’s
salary from the budget. The move
will be debated Tuesday noon, and if
it should be accepted by the party the
resolution will then be introduced in
the wjichstag itself and the socialist
war ill the national guard will be on.
rtacucais suspect minister,
Dr, Gessler Is charged by the
radical wing of the socialists with
failing to break up the relations be
tween the reiehswehr and the secret
nationalist group -with fascistic ten
dencies, with inability or lack of de
sire to check his generals from mak
ing propaganda for a war of revenge
against France.
On Friday the Prussian socialist
minister of the interior, Severing,
called all the provincial presidents to
Berlin for a conference.
Very significantly it was followed
by Minister of Defense Gessler calling
all the generals commanding the de
fense districts to Berlin for a council.
Socialists Excited.
This, together with the action of
the general commanding the Breslau
district sending out an order for the
authorities of that district to furnish
him immediately the enlistment lists
and other information of a military
eharcter, has greatly excited the so
cialists.
Minister of the Interior Severing
is reported to have demanded that
Dr. Gessler remove the Breslau gen
eral, but Gessler refused, the reports
say.
Karl Radek is reported to be in the
Ruhr in personal charge of commun
istic propaganda among the French
troops.
The mutinous actions reported
among the French are alleged to be
due to the work of Russia’s chief pro
pagandist.
While this report cannot now be
confirmed, the information comes
from sources in close touch with the
third internationale.

Mrs. Banes Says Tanlac Ended
Indigestion, Sournes? and Pal

“Tanlac has helped me so much I
wish everyone suffering like I did
would follow my suggestion to use it,”
said Mrs. Sadie Banes, 2037 Washing
ton St„ Kansas City, Mo., the other day,
“Before I took Tanlac my appetite
was so poor it seemed beyond cultiva
tion, and the little I managed to eat
gave me indigestion and caused awful
sourness and palpitation. I was simply i
miserable from nervous headaches, diz
ziness and knife-like pains In my back,
always slept poorly, and felt so bad
that at times I just had to quit my
housework and lie down.
“Tanlac was so well suited to my
case that it has only taken three bot
tles, half of the full treatment, to
restore me to perfect health. It makes
me so happy to be without an ache,
pain or trouble of any kind that I go
about my work humming and singing.
I just can’t help rejoicing over wltat
Tanlac has done for me.”

Britain’s Arable Area Reduced.
The arable area of Great Britain
since 1918 has been continuously re
duced. Land now under the plow is
not much greater'' in extent than imme
diately before the war, according to
a report from the board of agriculture.
Tlie total area under crops and grass
showed less change in 1922 than for
several years past, the ligures being
26.025.000 acres In 1922, against 26,

Classic Slang.
Considerable so-called slang is clas
sic. “Escape with the skin of my
tec*th” is from Job. “He is a brick” is
from Plutarch. That historian tells of
a king of Sparta who boasted that
Ids army was the only wall of the
city, “and every man ts a brick.” We
call n fair and honest man "a square
man,” but the Greeks described the
same person as Tetragonous—“u four
cornered man.”
"Every dog lias its day” is common
ly attributed to Shakespeare, in Ham
let’s speech, “The cat will mew and
the dog will have its day.” But 40
years before “Hamlet” Heyworth
wrote, “But, ns every man saitli, u
dog hath ids dale.”
Critic Confounded.
Wnpdering into a burlesque bouse,
a critic spent some minutes in disap
proving contemplation of a lively skit.
The skit was based on the familiar
theme of twin brothers. There were
:wo pairs of them. Complications due
to mistaken identity bobbed up every
moment, and there was plenty of
»ough stuff. The author came around
and tlie critic proceeded to read him a
lecture, concluding by demanding:
'Now, where did you get all this horse
play?"
‘I lifted it bodily from Shakespeare,”
f'blied the author quietly. “This is'
• . -oly a condensed version of the
• • '..edy of Errors.’ ”
Good Word for Winter.
Take winter as you find him and
li« turns out to be a thoroughly hon
est fellow with no nonsense in him
ami tolerating none in you, which is
a great comfort in the long run.—

“ELEGY” WAS WORK OF YEARS
Thomas Gray's Masterpiece Clearly
Not the' Result of a Moment
of Inspiration.
It was eight yfarg from the time
Thomas Gray, English poet, begun the
most famous of all his poems. “Elegy
Written In a Country Churchyard,''’'Un
til he hud finished It. He begun It in
1742, and it was finished In utine, 1750.
It attracted so much attention In man
uscript thut a pirate announced his
Intention of printing It. This caused
Gray to authorize a publisher, to whom
he loftily yielded all the profits, to
print an edition In 1751. It attracted
at once the popularity It has never
lost, and was mjueh parodied and imi
tated throughout the western world.
It was his love of romantic scenery
and his morbid temperament which
gave Gray his post of eminence among
the “Churchyard I’oets." He was
shrinking and fastidious, and he was
also depressed by the standards of his
Age in respect to poetry. Biographers
say that he was indolent and irreso

VICTIM OF HIS OWN ERROR
American Tourist Really Had No
Right to Complain of Extortion,
Under the Circumstances.
“Ambassador Herrick," said a re
turned tourist, “told- ine In Paris that
a good deal of the so-called extortion
we tourists complain ubou^ is due to
rn ^understandings.
“He instanced the case of a tourist
in Brussels who got on a trumcar to
make the whole journey round the
exterior boulevards. When the con
ductor asked him where he wanted to
go he said:
“ ‘Toute le journee.*
“He thought that this meant, ‘The
whole Journey,’ but t r ally means,
‘All day long’; and s > the conduct*,
putting him down i s . a eccentric,
gnvA him 15 tickets and cliurgcU fcim
15 francs. *
“fifteen francs! What an extor
tion! The tourist from that day on
couldn’t knock Europe and European
grafters hard enough."
