Today Lloyd George Is Here. A Child and a Genius. Greatest S nce Lincoln. A Great and Brave Man ^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^ America saw Lloyd George, and he saw America, for the first time yesterday. This is an attempt to describe him more. He is sitting three scats to the right at the Bilt more hotel in New York taking luncheon provided by Roy W. Howard. This nation ha*> not seen so great a man since Lincoln died. In 500 yearn the world has produced no greater democrat, Lloyd George is the real winner of that great war. lie led to victory the bewildei^d nilied nations. His power supplied the money, ammunitions, mental courage and forced the nations to fight united under Foch. What does he look like? Like a composite picture of Michael An gelo, Moses and a two-year-old baby. Every child is a genius. Every genius is a child. Lloyd George, earth’s dominating genius of statesmanship, is a child in sim plicity, manner,'charm and truth. He gazes at you through big light grey eyes set far apart. They seem to say: “I like you, you like me, let’s talk." You impulse is to say: “Kindly come and sit on papa's knee.’’ A few moments later he talks of the war and Europe’s accursed condition "15,000,000 picked men killed, 20,000,000 • crippled for life, tens of billions of wealth, gathered through the centuries squandered in a moment, commerce destroyed, nothing left, except hate.” Then lu that fine face, are written contempt for human stu pidity, scorn for nations driven to self-destruction, not by love of bat tle, but by fear. Those grey eyes blaze and you feel deep respect for power, as when you look into that marble face, in the church of Saint Peter in chains. But what, exactly, does Lloyd George look like? Well, he is short, not more than five feet six, and about 60 years old, his head magnificently shap ed is almost as high above the.ears as Walter Scott's. That height means imagination. Lloyd George needed it, to meet the situation of 1914. His ears, large, set straight up and down, and narrow. They are low on his head a little more and they would have .been on his neck. That's where all ou. ears were once, according to Darwin* Our ears were once the gills of a fish. They changed to ears for hearing, when we ceased needing gills. Vnusual are Lloyd George s eyebrows and arms. His stubby little white moustache ought not to be there. He should have all of that face. His long wavy white hair, stopping just short "of hu? coat cellar, is a duplicate of Henry Ward Beecher’s. His eyebrows d;n’t go with his almost cherubic face. They ure planted far above his eye?, are deep black, and point upward at the outside ends, * as though planned for the part of Mephisto, without a makeup. And his arms, you have seen none so short, in proportion to height, since Lillian Russell died. He has to lean over to reach the bottom of his trousers pocket, and bend almost double to tie his hoes. Those short arms mean something. Chimpanzees and goril las have arm- that reach their ankles, when they stand straight. As men develop brain power, their arms grow shorter. The brain does the fighting, instead of the long arms. Ask the once kaiser. He’ll tell you Lloyd George can fight With his head. While Roy Howard first, then N'ewton D. Baker, formerly sec retary of war, are praising him, Lloyd George sits bent forwvd mumbling drowsily: "Hear,” as all Britons do, “hear," when President Wilson or our gallant troops are mentioned, unlike many Britons, Lloyd' George knows that the letter R is part of the word “hear” and pronounces that letter. He could run for office here and be under stood, when he talked. One hand holds up his cheek, the other holds the cherished re mains of a cigar. As he listens you see that the hand spread across the check has a broad palm, and long tapering fingers. That is the Lloyd George combination —hard common sense and strength in the wide palm, refine ment and imagination in the long fingers. Lloyd George dresses in the usual way, black cutaway coat, with coat tails unusually sharp, more like John C. Cnlhoun’s than the modern style. A thin gold watch chain stretches east and west across his waistcoat; gray Trousers, gray cravat, in it a pin with feeble little diamonds. His eyeglass, with thin tortoise shell rims, is made safe by a heavy black ribbon. The humor, that has carried Lloyd George through the hardest work any man ever did, shews in his fare in the smile and in each line that radiates from the outer corners of his eyes. Many sm los and hearty laughter have carried him through a world that has thrown its heaviest burdens on him. An Englishman on the left, great admirer of Lloyd George, says that, many Englishmen dislike him. You (an imagine a man saved from drowning, kicking the man that saved h m. You can hardly imagine a Briton disliking Lloyd George. Without him, Eng lishmen might now bn practicing the goose step, and singing “The Watch on the Rhine” in atrocious German. What Charles C. Ham mer did for old Europe, when he held back the power of Mohammed, Lloyd George did for modern Eu rope, when his intellect held back the kaiser. (Copyright, 1923.) Dahlman to Introduce Auto Law ' Mayor Says He Personally Favors Ordinance to License Motorists to Curb Reck less Drivers. Support in City Council Mayor Dahlman said Saturday that he Is considering the Introduction of an ordinance to license all persons driving automobiles. Several other city commissioners in dicated they will support such an ordinance. ‘‘I will talk with other city commis sioners about the ordinance Monday morning,” said Mayor Dahlman. “I personally favor such an ordinance." Commissioner Dean Noyes and Com missioner John Hopkins, who carry on much of their work with the use of automobiles, arc fully awake to the danger which reckless drivers create for pedestrians and other motorists on Omaha streets, and declared they will support the plan for licensing driv ers. Prefers State law. Commissioner Dunn is strongly In favor of some regulation which will weed out careless and incompetent drivers, but said ha would prefer a state law rather than an ordinance affecting Omaha alone. “I think a copy of the Maryland law. which makes it necessary for those driving ears to qualify before an examining board, should be Intro duced and passed by the Nebraska state legislature at its next session," said Commissioner Dunn. "The Mary land law is most effective because it provides that cars tielonging to per sons caught driving without licenses shall be Impounded. I am not neces sarily against an ordinance which would make a similar regulation a law in Omaha, but, 1 think it might not be entirely fair to Omahans when thousands of out-of town peo ple drive into the city every day and use the streets without being sub jected to the same regulation.” Butte Passes Law. Guests at the home of Commission er Noyes received word Saturday that Fiutte, Mont., had passed an ordin ance making motorists qualify for licenses, the commissioner said. Commissioner Joseph Koutsky said he would be against any ordinance which would create another "fat” po litical job. "If I can see some way clear to put a licensing ordinance through and en force it without burdening the putt lie I would not oppose it," said Kout sky. "But I am not in a position to suggest any way at present." R. B. Wallace Audit Is Almost Completed Members of the committee ap pointed by the creditors of the Rob ert B.

Sleuth Among 11 inmates arrested when police raided a place at 1112 Jackson street, run by (iene Holbrook, Hatur day, was a man who said his name Is Fred Hloan, 2834 Dougins street. "I'm a federal agent," he said. But he asked the amount of the bond, put up the required $25 and said ho hud to leave at once for St. Hotils. Police did not Investigate whether he was really an officer. Rembandt Declared a Forgery (Pacific and Atlantlo Photo.) ‘‘Portrait of a Girl” in the Chicago Art institute that Prof. John C. Van Dyke of Rutgers college, declares a fake. The "Portrait of a Girl,” Isn't a Rembrandt at all, according to Prof John C. Van Dyke, professor of art and archaeology at Rutgers college. It is the work of a pupil of Rembrandt, whose name is unknown. Of the 15 or more Rembrandts in the Metropolitan Museum of Art In New York, not one is genuine, he asserts. He says there is not a genuine Rembrandt in any American gallery. In the Louvre there are only four true Rembrandts out of the 23 credited to him, Van Dyke says; in the Hermitage gallery, London, there are four out of 21, and in the Kaiser Friedrich museum. Berlin, there are but three out of 26, with a shade of doubt about these three. Prof. Van Dyke’s deductions are embodied in a volume to be published tomorrow under the title, "Rembrandt and His Scl^d.” Prof Van Dyke's investigations cover a 40 year period and have led nim to publish his con clusions, he says, "with no ^eslre for sensation, but to establish history.” Of the 800 or 1,000 paintings in the world attributed to Rembrandt, Prof. Van Dyke can find 35 that are the work of his hand. The rest, he says, are probably the work of pupils, followers, or Imitators. Fremont 'Suicide' Found in Chicago Carl Scoresome. Wlio Left Wife and Two Children Last Spring, Seen by Friend.

By VnlvrrBal Service. Portland, Ore., Oct. 7.—War can be best prevented and the advancement and prosperity of the workers of the world assured through a league of trades unions, according to John W. Brown of England, secretary and organizer for the International Fed eration of Trades Unions, with head quarters tn Amsterdam-Holland. Mr. Brown addressed thA convention of the American Federation of Labor. "The one besetting sin of the Anglo-Saxon race,” said Mr. Brown, “is that of running Into smug self complacency. The interests of the labor movements of the Anglo-Saxons is bound up with the Interests of labor in other countries. “Apart from the communists, the trade union movement has nailed Its banner to democracy. The three weapons used are the Industrial weapon, the political weapon and the weapon of the consumers. Reds Given Boot. “The trade union International body that I represent embraces over 23,000,000 workers. In a resolution passed by our organization In May. 1921, any organization affiliated with the Moscow red international move ment W"s automatically dropped from the federation. 'We believe in fostering the trade union movement In countries where It Is weak. We cannot take the po sition of splendid Isolation. Competi tion In other countries requires that we raise the standard of wages and the standard of living In all civilized countries. They cannot grant an eight-hour day In one country, com peting with a 10-hour day and a 12 hour day in other countries. “We must see fair conditions es tabllshed for labor throughout the world. Unless we can raise the stand ards of living and wages In other countries, our own standards will be forced to come down.” John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, In a speech, said that his organization found that It was being made a breeding place for a great many policies running counter to the established policies of the organized labor movement. Stand by Contracts. “Our union has long stood for the validity of contracts and has Insisted on members carrying out such obltga tions when properly assumed," he said. “The teachers of false philosophies are able to Imbue some of our mem bers with their beliefs and Induce them to depart from us and follow after false gods '” “Boring from within,” will receive the official attention of the Ameri can Federation of Labor Monday, It waa forecast today. Also the con vention is seriously considering the advisability of unseating the borers on the charge that they are enemies of the organized labor movement of America. The chief borer ts William V.. Fos ter, who has failed to put In an ap pearance In Portland because of warnings from the Department of Justice, it was stated. He Is repre sented here by deputy “borers from within." James A. Duncan, delegate from the Seattle Trades and Labor coun cil, and William F. Dunne, editor of the Butte (Mont.)

BURGESS. Alai, advicn that’s sorely needed IJo very often goes unheeded — Bob W hits. Bob White Warns His Children. Bub White is a wise little fellow. He has learned that no hunting is SI lowed on I-'armer Brown's land, and he has learned just what tho bound darles of that land are. He knows that In the summer he can go where he pleases without fear of hunters with terrible guns. He knows when It Is time for the dreadful hunting season to begin, and then he stays on Farmer Brown's land. But the wisdom of experience Is not for the young unless they will heed what their elders say. Bob While and Mrs. Bob White had raised a large family. Fiftc en children they had, and very proud of them they were. All through the long summer ‘The danger season lias roine,” said Bob While. Bob and Mrs. Bob had led their chil dren from one good feeding ground to another. They had taught them how to watch out for Reddy Fox. Black Pussy the Cat, Old Man Coyote and the members of the Hawk family. Time and again there had been nar row escapes for some of them. But with each escape they had learn'd something. They had gained expert ence. Many times during the summer they had seen the two legged crea lures called men and had found them harmless. Often they did no more than simply run to get out of the way ot a man. They didn't find it neces sary to fly. But now the crisp, cool October days had come. The leaves an the trees had turned to beautiful colors and were dropping. The grain had been cut and in the brown stub ble was plenty of loose grain to be had for the looking. Bob and Mrs. Bob called their chil dren around them. "The danger sea son has come," said Bob White. "W’hat danger season?” asked a young Bob W’hite. "The dreadful hunting season," re plied Bob. "So far as I have been able to see. the hunting season is all the time.". declared the pert young Bob White ! "Ever sirce 1 was out of my shell I have been taught to watch out for Heddy Fox and the mm be is of the Hawk family." "The dreadful hunting season is the season when those two-legged crea tures whom you have learned not to be afraid of suddenly, for no reason at all, become our worst enem'es and spend much of their time hunting us.” explained Bob White. "Pooh!" exclaimed another young Bob White. "It is easy enough to1 keep out of their wnv. Why, we don't even have to fly to do that." Bob White shook his head. "That' shown your ignorance,” said he, “Through the summ- r they are harm less. But at this neaw n of the yeut they carry with Hum queer stick* that spit out file and smoke and kill or hurt when the hunter is still some distance away. They can do it when you are in the air, flying your fastest. In fact, you are safer hiding on the ground. But even ther« you likely to be found by a dog, who udPr point you out to his master. Wnt hunters never come this side of that fence over there. This is Farmer Brown's land and here you will be safe. For the next few weeks keep this side of that fence and you will be safe. Don't forge'.” (Copyright. 1933 ) The next s'ory: "The Young Bob Whites Talk It Over." Kenyon Boom as J Running Mate of Coolidsre Grows Nomination of Iowan as Vice President Seen as ay to Win Western Votes for G. O. P. Des Moines, Oct. 7.—Special dis patches received here by the Eve ning Tribune from Washington say • hat In spite of the fact that the friends of Federal Judge W. 8. Ken yon, fprmer Iowa senator, are opposed to it, the movement to put Kenyon on the ticket as a candidate for xice president with President Coolidge for president, is gaining. The Washington special reads: “The movement has strong support among some of the administration s advisers. They hold that if President Coolidg* is to be elected he will have to win the middle west and that by putting such a man as Kenyon on the ticket as vice president he would be as sured to gain the progressive repub lican vote.” Washington friends of Senator Ken yon who oppose the plan admit th* possibility of him being drafted.
