NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS Allies Propose to Maintain a Watoh on the Rhine for a Long Time to Come. MAKE HUNS REALIZE DEFEAT New Armistice Terms Bring Forth Walls FlQht on the Projected League of Nations Opened In Congress Without Awaiting President Wilson's Prom ised Explication. By EDWARD W. PICKARD , Emllo Cottln, the nnnrchlst who tried to murder Premier Clcmcncenu In arls, could not have done his cause greater disservice. If lie recovers from the wound In lits shoulder, ns seems probable at this writing, the Tiger" will be stronger than ever In France and the people of his country will glvo support more united than aver to his plans and demands fur the restoration and the safeguarding of France, even though ho may be "pre paring for another war", as the nslas In asserts. Clemenceau, by his cour age and robust patriotism has won the esteem of all his fellow citizens icept the rabid anarchists, who al ways have hated htm. Ills Influence in the deliberations of the peace dele gates has been powerful and his statesmanship has been demonstrated at every turn. It is becoming more evident dally that the entente allies have no inten tion of yielding too far to muud't'n sen timent where Germany is concerned and that the Huns arc to be ptoperl restrained, with Just enough econoiu freedom to enable them to work hard and pny for the treinoudous damage they have done the world. They may wall and squirm, but they will not be permitted to organize their forces foi the armed resistance ngnlnst the tonus Imposed en them by their conquerors. At least during, the present genratlm the allies intend to keep n watch on the Ilhlne that, in the words or Win ston Churchill, lirltish war secietary, will "make it physically Impossible for Germany to begin a war of revenge, at any rate In our lifetime." The of foctlvenoss of the league of nations, he said, depends upon the allien having a trustworthy military force In close proximity to Germany, and ne ex plained that the British government therefore would retain about one- fourth of the men now In the mtvIco and also is already raising a volunteer army for garrisoning the empire. Dur ing 1010 the British army will number 000,000 men. Presumably the other lied nations will do their part In tlilr respect. Amerlcn's selective Hervlce act army must be demobilized will four months after the forini'l proclaim ing of peace. The army bill as pas. by the houso last week provides for the regular peace-time army of 17.1.000 to be obtained by voluntary enlist ments. As the enlistment perloi' Is re duced to ono year and tho foui-yenr period In tho reserve Is done away with, it Is believed that whatever army is needed nbroad can bo recruited from the ranks of tho soldiers now tl't-re. Since this bill Is regarded as totally Inadequate by a great many senntors it has small chance of becoming lnw, and it Is bellcvod an extra session of the new congress will be called to pass both army and navy appropriation bills, which, it Is taken for granted, will permit America to do her part In guarding the peace of the world. In tho new armistice terms Inu.oscd n them tho Huns nre getting u sllgh" foretnsto of whnt they may expect when tho military peace treaty Is made. Not many radical chang"-. were made, but these Include the ceisatlon of all hostilities against tho PoIoh nnd the removal of German troops froir the Posen and Thorn districts: also tho Germans wero peremptorily or dered to put In good condition, nil the artillery, airplanes, motortrucks nnd lolling stock which are to be turned over. Nothing was Include' about de mobilization because It was ascer tained that less than 200,000 Germans arc now under arms. Krzbetger Mgni'd the new terms under protest, nnd when he returned to Weimar he explained to the national assembly that he had no recourse. He was violently Mtacked by a delegate of the People's p.'ii'ly but wns sustained by the majority. Whnt seems to be worrying Przber ger most Is the prospect that th" pence treaty will give to France the Sniir val ley, where the best of the German coal deposits are located. The I reach claim this basin should be theli.s ii conjunction with the nearby Hrk Iron region, but Krzbcrgcr predicts that I It Is given them Germany some day will recover It by force. In this, i.nd In his repented protest ngulnst he "harshness" of the treatment tle Ger mans nre receiving or nre about to re ceive, Krzbcrgcr Is speaking for a large part of the Gcrmnn nation, which seems Incapable of realizing that It has been whipped and must pay fully for Its crlihes. The nrrognnce of tho Huns has reached n high point In loud object Ions to the league of nations, 'n the Oi" man press. Some newspapers even urge that Germany should hnvc noth ing to do with the league, but others, wlille severely crtlclzlng some of the proposed statutes, demand that Oi , mnny be permitted to Join the leuguc simultaneously with tho other powers. It Is taken for granted by the allied nntlotiB that Germany will be i.dmlt ted to the league at some future date, but only after she has given sufficient guaranty of her sincerity. As Piofes sor Lnmaude, .denn of the Pans law faculty, says: "Surely when Geimany enters "a league of nations' she will ngreo to sign every undertaking we de sire; but wo know whnt undertakings menu to tho Germans. Did they not sign ii trenty guaranteeing the neu trality of Belgium?" This attitude of distrust, which Is shared hy all the allied nntlons. Is rec ognized ns Justifiable by one Teuton, nt least, Kurt Eisner, premier of l varla. Tho Germans, he says, Old not realize to what extent the allies con sidered the German revolution a pure comedy, and he said that It will bo thus while the German lenders remain the same ns those who eonductC'l Ger many's odious wnr policy. The constitution of the league of na tions, na drafted, has been received with general npprovnl In England nnd Italy, while in France tho prevalent feeling Is Hint It Is n good beginning for n project hy which there Is hope of establishing world pence. In America opinion Is widely divergent, and nil verso criticism Is bnscd on the fenr that the United States Is about to sur render the Monroe Doctrine. Presi dent Wilson, by wireless, nsktd thnt there be no discussion of the league, In congress or elsewhere, until he could explain It fully In the public sproche he was planning to make In various cities. Some of the more Impatient In congress, however, declined to wait, ,nnd started the music Inst Wednes day. In the sennte the leaguo wus a tacked strongly by Pol.idexter, Borah, Heed, Vardnman, Lodge and others, nnd was defended by Shnfroth and Hitchcock. In the houso Ft-ss oi Ohio opened the fight on the league, declar ing it "monstrous" and filled with vicious possibilities. As can be seen, the lenguc of nations Is not n party question, hut many nstuto leaders of the llcpubltciii party are urging that criticism of the plan be suppressed until tho nttltudc of th country Is ascertained from the lecep tlon given the president's explanation Mr. Tnft, who has not censed to be one of that party's chiefs, denounces the opponents of the league for another reason because he already nrdently believes In the etllcncy of the ptoposed society of nntlons. It Is easy to pre diet that, nfter u denl of rnlnwr, the senate will give Its npprovnl to the league plan, probably with formal res ervations that will protect the Monroe Doctrine. Of tlioso peoples who still are light ing In Europe and Asia there Is not much to write this week. Tho Poles arc being hnrd pressed by tho Ukrain ians In the I.cmherg region, Mid v East Prussia tho German troops were said to bo lighting them under tho-old Imperial stnndard. The Junko't, ac cording to report, were striving to r tain their old military Jobs hy organ Izlng a strong movement egalrst Po land. General Denlklue and his ntn'sovlet army, It was announced, had renched the Caspian, having scattered a great body of anarchist troops and captured Jtl.OOO prisoners and large quantities of material. In lNthonlii, however, the soviet armies, which had n sinned their activities with a general attack, were said to be making considerable progress, especially In the region l'.skov. This continuation of bostlll ties by the Lenlne-Trotzky force ugaln makes doubtful the holding of the pro nosed conference nt Prim cs' Island. Moreover, three of the Itusslnn govern ments, those of Siberia, Archangel and soiitlM'rn Uussla, have formally de clined to tnko part In the conference, slating thnt there can be no concilia tion between them and the bolshcvlkl who are denounced as traitors nnd fo mentors of nnarchy. Information from Petrograd shows that opposition to the rule of the Le nlne anarchists Is Incrcnslng among the more intelligent workers. Sixty thousnnd workmen In thnt city nre on Btrlke, demanding the end of civil wnr and the establishment of free trnde. The United Stntes nnd G'ent Britain have announced thnt their forces In northern Russia are to bo withdrawn when weather conditions permit, ami will be re-enforced to fnrlllln'u this movement. Meanwhile those who have been worried by alarmist tors of the distressing conditions under which our boys there are existing may be n llevcd by the cablegram from Col. George F. Stewnrt, commanding the Amcrlcnns. He says the reports are not warranted by the facts; that the health of the entire command Is excel lent, the sick nnd wounded are well cared for anil the entire allied expe dition Is capable of taking care of it self ngnlnst the whole bolshevik army The Spartncnn nnnrchlsts of Ger mnny were extremely busy throughout the week, organizing here mid there nnd In Westphalia going so far ns to start n bombardment of the Jown of Itotterop. In the Ruhr Industilnl re gion nlong the Rhine the Spartacnns occupied several towns nnd doc'ured n general strike, fortifying tho water works and powerhouses nnd preparing to resist the government troops. Muhl helm Is the center of the movement nnd the unnrchlsts have gathered there In large numbers. Congressman-elect Victor L. Berger J of Wisconsin nnd his fellow defend nnts, Engdahl, Germer, Tucker and Kruse, convicted of vlolntlng the es pionage act and conspiring to ob struct the United Stntes' war program, were sentenced by Judge Liuulls to twenty yenrs' Imprisonment ench nt Leavenworth. Appealing to the fed eral circuit court of appeals, they were released on bonds, but only nfter giving their solemn pledges thnt they would neither by word nor act do any of the things for which they were con victed pending final decision of their cases. The senate Judiciary committee took a step toward curbing the activities of tho anarchists when It unanimously op proved a bill to punish such activities and to prohibit the display of red flags or other emblems of violence. There were Interesting develop ments In tho "scnndals" and chnrgeH thnt Inevltnbly follow n war. Governor Allen of Kansas, supportltg a motion of Representative Campbell for an I' vestlgatlon of the story that the cas ualties of the Thirty-fifth il'vlslon were needlessly lnrge, told the house com mittee on rules n shocking story of In elllclcncy nnd blunders nnd lack of artillery and equipment.

The Inquiry-Into the.ie conditions will not bo made by congress until the next session, when the entire condue of the wnr will be sifted.

Uric acid Is now generally recog nized ns the cause of more diseases than was heretofore believed. When the kidneys are out of order uric acid accumulates within the body In super abundance. The disordered kidneys do not filter the poisons out of tho blood, ns they ought to do, nnd so th poisons remnin In the blood nnd flont around until they find a place to lodge, in form of urnto salts. Tho thing to remember Is that you may have rheumatism In any pnrt of tho body you moy hnvc pains nnywhero your back may nche nnd your head may be dizzy but tho trouble Is not where the pain nppenrs. The trouble Is in the kidneys, snd what is the first thing ta do? You mutt get thnt excess uric acid out of your sys tem, which can be done by taking Anuric Tablets, the uplendid remedy which Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., has put on sals in the drug stores at a low price. Anuric Tablets (made double strength), when taken into the ytem as medicine, havs tho peculiar power of dissolving the uric acid deposited there. Drop a bit of sugar or salt into hot water, and it will disap pear. In precisely the same way do thess Anuric Tablets dissolve uric acid. Of course, after ridding the system of uric acid, it may return again unless you eat the right foods and live the right kind of life, but Dr. Pierce will advise you fully on proper food and correct living if you write and ask him. He makes no chargs for such advice. Take Anuric Tablets to day, by all means, and get that uric acid out of your system. Don't, don't, don't, put tho matter off.
