Secretary of State Lansing
Emphatically Calls Upon
Allies Not to Ignore
Plea of Germans.
Tan's. March 12. - "We have
reached a crisis in the affairs of the
world," said Secretary of State Rob
ert Lansing at a banquet given last
night by the Inter-Allied Tress
club in honor of the American peace
commissioners. Mr. Lansing was
emphatic in his statement that the
allies must feed Germany and give
the Germans opportunity to sell
their products in the foreign mar
kets if the danger of bolshevism
was to be avoided. Mr. Lansing
said :
''In the infancy of our republic
across the seas' the sympathy and
aid of France gave the support
which was needed to make individual
liberty the supreme ruler of the des
tinies of the new-born nation. From
that time forward liberty has been,
and still is. the most sacred and
most compelling impulse in political
life in America.
End Autocracy.
"It was when the people of the
United States came to a full realiza
tion that the liberty for which they
had fought was in danger that the
nation with unsurpassed unanimity
took up the sword with a firm de
termination to do its part in freeing
liberty and the world from au
tocracy. "A mifihty victory has been won.
The imperial armies of the central
powers have ceased to threaten.
They no longer exist. Scattered
and broken, they have returned to
their homes, where hunger and
privation await them hunger and
privation which are the conse
quences of their own blind faith in
evil men who led them into this un
righteous war.
Germany Suffers.
"Germany has suffered bitterly,
is suffering bitterly, and Germany is
entitled to suffer for what she has
done. Today starvation and want are
the portions of the German people.
Violence and murder stalk through
the streets of their great cities. Po
litical institutions, industrial enter
prise and the very structure of so
ciety are tottering. It is the just
retribution of their crimes.
"We may be disposed to pity those
innocent anions the Germans, but
our pity is almost dried up when we
consider what France and other na
tions had to suffer from the invad
, ing armies of the Teutons.
"France has endured unspeakable
woes with a fortitude and determina
tion whicli excite the admiration and
wonder of the world. I cannot pick
words to express the praise I would
give to the French armies and their
great penerals, to the French people
and their great leaders who lived
through those black days of horror,
when stoutest hearts might well
have despaired.
New Problems.
"And, now that the great conflict
is ended and the mighty war en
gine of Prussia is crushed, we have
new problems to solve, new dan
gers to overcome. East of the Rhine
there are famine and idleness, want
and misery. Political chaos and
outlawry have supplanted the high
ly organized government of imperial
Germany. Social order is breaking
down under the difficulties of defeat
and the hopelessness of the future.
Like the anarchy which made an in
fejno of Russia, the fires of terror
ism are ablaze in the state of Ger
many. "Over the ruins of this once great
empire the flames are sweeping
westward. It is no time to allow
sentiments of vengeance and hatred
to stand in the way of checking
this conflagration, which will soon
be at the German borders and
threatening other lands. We must
change the conditions on which so
cial unrest feeds, and strive to re
store Germany to a normal, though
it be a weakened social order.
Food and Peace.
"Two words tell the story food
and peace. To make Germany cap
able of resisting anarchy and the
hieows despotism of the red terror,
Germany must be allowed to pur
chase food and to earn that food,
industrial conditons must be re
stored by a treaty of peace. It is
not out of pity for the German
people that this must be done and
done without delay, but because we,
the victors in this war, will be the
chief sufferers if it not done.
"You may demand reparation as
much as you please, but unless the
German people are furnished ma
terials for their industries and com
mercial opportunities to sell the
products of labor in the foreign
markets, and unless the laborers
have food Germany can never pay,
even in part, for the evil it has
done. Furthermore, if the present
state of chaos continues and the po
litical power continues to grow
weaker there will be no responsible
German government with which to
make peace; there will be no gov
ernment strong enough to carry
out the conditions of the treaty of
peace.
Must Hurry Peace.
"I say to you men of France, and
men of America, and to you men
of the allied powers, that there is
no time to be lost if we are to save
the world from the despotism of
anarchy. We must make peace
without delay, and ships laden with
food must eniter the harbors of
Germany. We have reached a crisis
in the affairs of the world. We
must meet it without passion and
without permitting our judgment to
be warped by a natural and una
voidable desire for vengance."

Russian Situation Proves
Menace to United States
Statesmen at Peace Confer
ence Fear Any Plan for
Pacifying Revolutionists
Will Be Dangerous.
By JAMES J. MONTAGUE.
Staff Correspondent of Universal
Service Recently Returned
from Paris.
New York, March 12. Secretive
as they are about most things, the
statesmen now tinkering at the
peace treaty in Paris make no se
cret of their fear of Russia. The ob
ject of the negotiations now going
forward is presumably peace uni
versal peace. But there can be no
peace even in Europe with Russia in
evolution and with her revolution
ists ready to overrun Germany and
all central Europe.
Here is where the danger to
America in the league of nations
plan lies: The first thing to be done
by the league is securing European
countries against wars. And any of
the peace makers, if he is frank,
will tell you that this must be done
by pacifying Russia.
American Danger.
Now if European countries in the
entente could pacify Russia by
themselves, there would be be no
danger to America. Rut if America
is expected to help them and as a
member of the league she naturally
will be expected to help them
America must supply an army to
help them with.
This is a thing that is not talked
about much in Paris, but it is in the
thought of most of the statesmen
who are engaged in framing the
league. I doubt if there is any set
tled plan as to how it is to be done,
now.
But once the league is formed,
once we are' committed to it, and
Russia menaces the countries who
are our fellow members of the so
ciety, what is there to do but to help
end the menace?
Little Information.
There is really little accurate or
comprehensive information about ac
tual conditions in Russia. Emis
saries who go thither seldom come
out again. The failure of the
Prince's Island parley scheme nip
ped any prospect of getting infor
mation. But no "one doubts that Russia
must either be ignored, to the peril
of Europe, or to deal in some fashion
or other with her. And three months
in Paris convinced me that all the en
tente statesmen cherish the hope
that in some way or other we shall
have a hand in the settlement when
it comes.
Just at present there are a number
of Russians in Paris representa
tives of some of the overturned
governments who are frankly so
liciting armed intervention to put
down the bolsheviki. These men
believe, or pretend to believe, that
250,000 troops would do the work.
But that is not credited by men
better informed.
Bolshevists Have Money.
The French foreign minister, M.
Pichon, admitted to a party of news
papermen that he did not know how
soon the soldiers now south of
Archangel could be rescued. He
also said that the bolshevists, hav
ing food and money in fact, all
the food and all the money that is
to be had in Russia are gaining
strength all the time.
And that is the belief of every
one who has had an opportunity
to learn of Russia's conditions.
This being the case, what, short of
armed intervention, can the entente
do to insure itself against the dan
gers of bolshevism? .And if armed
intervention is to be determined
upon, how can the United States as
Woman Driver Makes
Record Trip in Auto,
Newark to Chicago
The Misses Buchanan and Sweet
land of Newark, N. J., have just
reached home with an interesting
story of their trip to Chicago in a
Standard Eight coupe, made by
the Standard Steel Car company of
Pittsburgh, Pa.
Starting from Newark on Satur
day afternoon they reached Chicago
on Wednesday, following a route
through Philadelphia, Gettysburg,
Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Sandusky,
Toledo and South Bend.
Miss Buchanan has made the trip
before in cars of other makes which
she has owned, but never in such
short time nor with such complete
comfort as this easy riding coupe
gave her.
Although they encountered bad
roads in Indiana and Ohio and
found many of the narrow roads in
the mountains filled with army
trucks which made fast driving im
possible, Miss Buchanan, who was
at the wheel for the entire distance,
is most enthusiastic about the entire
trip and the way her Standard Eight
behaved.
Woman Sustains Injury
When Struck by Auto
Miss Paulina Linn, 1116 South"
Fortieth street, was knocked down
by an auto driven by Berney John
son, 557 South Thirty-third street,
at Sixteenth and Farnam street yes
terday evening at 4 o'clock. She was
taken to St. Joseph hospital and at
tended by hr. Johnson. 'Her injuries
consist of body bruises and are re
ported not serious. No arrest was
made.
Complete Work.
Paris, March 12. The peace eon
ference commission on Czecho-Slo-vale
affairs has almost completed its
work. The official communique of
the commission given out after its
fifth meeting today under the pres
idency of Jules Cambon, made this
announcement and stated that di
rection for the preparation of its
report had been given.
Spencer to Assist Hines.
Washington, March 12. Henry B.
Spencer was appointed by Director
General Hines today director of the
railroad administration's division of
purchases, effective next Saturday.
Mr. Spencer will resign as vice i
president of the Southern railway,
a league member of the league with
hold its aid?
America Disapproves.
Put that straight up to the Ameri
can people and I am sure there
would be (one answer. Ihey cheer
fully went into the. war against
Germany, but they will look upon a
war to quell riot and anarchy in
Russia as another matter. Put it
up to American soldiers in France
and Germany, as I have done, and
you will find that any proposal to
tight in Russia meets with emphatic
disapproval.
Our soldiers know what overseas
fighting means. And they know that
hard as it was to fight in France,
it will be still harder to fight in
Russia, where transportation condi
tions have been shot to pieces, and
where the country can supply practi
cally nothing to live on.
Requires Large Army.
In the estimation of one general
officer with whom I talked it will
take from one million to two mil
lion men to pacify Russia and the
job can not be done inside of five
or ten years.
It may be that it will be neces
sary for European countries to do
this. Their people must live next
door to the Russians. They have
known what it meant to live next
door to the Germans and have seen
that the only way out was to fight.
But America is across a wide
ocean from Russia and American
soldiers, at least, feel that it is not
America's business to mix in Rus
sian pacification.
Already our boys in France and
Germany are very weary of their
jobs. A call for volunteers might
bring forth a few soldiers of for
tune who like to fight for the sake
of fighting. But no sentiment of
American patriotism could be awak
ened by an appeal to eiter that land
of anarchy and put down the bol
sheviks that the peace of Europe
might be more secure. There is
no altruism among our soldiers that
will extend as far as that.
Yanks Oppose League.
It is for this reason that the league
of nations plan is not finding favor
in the eyes of our troops abroad.
They feel that they have done their
full duty to our allies whose cause
they still uphold despite certain per
sonal differences between French
and American soldiers and between
British and American soldiers.
They feel also that the founda
tion of a league of nations, in a
world still troubled by armed bands
of men, is' force, and that if force is
to be applied they will be expected
to apply it.
Therefore, however the constitu
tion of the league may be drawn, un
less it specifically forbids the use
of American troops in Russia or in a
bolshevik-ridden Germany and Aus
tria, it will not find favor in the eyes
of our fighting men.
Want to Come Home.
What they want to do is to come
home. They will come home any
way they can. They will stop as
long as may be required in muddy
embarkation camps, spend as many
days as may be necessary crowded in
the bellies of slow transports so
long as it means home coming.
But suggest to them that after all
that they have done, they engage in
another and what may be an even
greater war, with no definite Ameri
can issue at stake, and they will reg
ister their sentiments very strongly.
That is why I believe the league of
nations idea as now projected win
not be suported by the American
people. The American people are
first of all for the boys who fought
for them and will carefully consult
the wishes of those boys before they
will commit themselves to a policy
of long continued European service
for American troops.
Debs Lauds Bolsheviki
In His Farewell Speech
Pefore Going to Prison
Cleveland, March 12 In what
may be his farewell public address
before beginning serving a 10-year
sentence imposed by the federal
court here on a charge of violating
the espionage act, Eugene V. Debs,
socialist leader, tonight upheld the
bolshevist rule in Russia and refer
red to Lenine and Trotzky as the
"foremost statesmen of the age."
Debs said the judges of the United
States supreme court were "be
gowned, bewhiskered, bepowdered
old fossils who have never decided
anything."
Referring to the prison term that
he faces, he reiterated his opposition
to the law that he violated while
the war was in progress.
A big squad of policemen and
agents of the Department of Justice
were scattered through the crowd,
but there was no semblance of dis
orders. Dismiss Fraud Case

Marmon Manager Predicts
New Series Will Follow
Stabilized Design of
the Marmon.
H. H. Rice, sales manager of the
Nordyke & Marmon company, calls
attention to the fact that eminent
engineers and automotive authori
ties are predicting that the next ser
ies of new models will follow the
lightweight principles that have
made, the stabilized design of the
Marmon 34 so successful.
Among the features which author
ities specify as the prevailing trend
of the future, are lightweight con
struction obtained by the use of
lighter, stronger metals; a wider use
of aluminum, and the elimination by
ingenious design of needless parts
and' of the excessive weight which
has been a feature of the conven
tionally designed car.'
Economy of operation is one of
the essentials toward which design
ers are striving more zealously than
ever. The war has taught, as nothing
else could, the fact that economy is
to be one of the essential factors of
engineering success in all lines. The
motor car economy must not only
make for economy of operation, but
for a durability that will make the
car last longer.
The ordeals of the last four years
have taught that it is needlessly
wasteful to move an excessively
heavy car; and that the excessive
weight of a heavy car also helps to
pound the car to pieces on the minor
inequalities of even moderately
smooth roads.
Automobile to Play
Big Part in Bringing
Business to Normal
After returning from a six weeks'
trip to the Pacific coast, T. E. Jar
rard, vice president of the Apper
son Brothers Automobile company
of Kokomo, Ind., when asked for
his opinion of business conditions
which might prevail during the per
iod of reconstruction, had the fol
lowing to say:
"Reconstruction is a big word. It
means much. It covers the rehabili
tation of the war-stricken territory
in Europe; the demobilization of
American soldiers and their return
to civil pursuits; the transition of
this country's industry from war
work to peace work; the upbuild
ing of both domestic and foreign
commerce, which has been seriously
interrupted by the war, and many
other problems vitally affecting the
economic welfare of the masses in
the good old U. S- A.
"In all of this work, no matter
where or what it may be, the motor
car and the wonderful industrial or
ganization to which it owes its rapid
development will play an important
part. When the United States en
tered the world war the automobile
industry was the third largest in
the commerce of the country. With
the coming war this huge organiza
tion of capital, labor and brains, was
placed at the disposal of the govern
ment. How well it served the com
mon cause is well known to all. By
converting its immense plants from
the production of passenger motor
cars over to war work and by fur
nishing thousands upon thousands
of skilled mechanics for the impor
tant work of the motor transport
not to mention the immense wealth
of the business which was placed
cheerfully at the disposal of the
government this third largest in
dustry served in the war for world
democracy as only a live, successful
business could serve."

All Waste Paper of Peace
Parley Carefully Burned
If Certain Paris Furnaces Were Gifted With Power of
Speech, They Could Tell Most Interesting Accounts
of the Writing That Went Up in Smoke Within
Them.
By JAY JEROME WILLIAMS.
Universal Service Staff Correspond
ent. Paris, March 11. What part does
waste paper play in the peace con
ference? Judging by the amount of caution
that is evidenced in everything per
taining to peace, as exemplified by
the presence of many shrewd de
tectives whose only duty is to guard
the secrets of shrewder plenipoten
tiaries, waste paper plays a leading
role in the many little dramas that
are subsidiary to the "big show"
staged every afternoon at the Cjuai
'''Orsay.
Statesmen, it seems, have the un
fortunate habit of transcribing on
note paper the thoughts that arise
in their minds when a discussion is
in progress. Sometimes their notes
are only scattered sentences, othe
times they may be more volumin
ous, and when the discussion ceases
the papers bearing them are gener
ally crumpled up and tossed into
tl.e nearest waste paper basket.
And this is the time when the de
tectives enter the scene.
Paper is All Burned.
At the British hea 'quarters in
the Hotel Astoria, for instance, is a
standing rule pertaining to nothing
save the disposition of waste paper.
It has to do with its collection by
trusted employes, the assembling of
all baskets in one room, a careful
inspection of all their contents by
other trusted employes, and finally
the cremation of all the waste paper
by employes of such untainted char
acter that they could be trusted
with the secrets of empires.
If certain furnaces in Paris were

Holy Ghost and Us

Shiloh, Me. Two of the leading

top. Several other memhers of the
institution have followed their lead,
threatening to completely disrupt
the Holy Ghost and Us society,
which was organized by Sandford
nearly a quarter of a century ago.
Since Sanford returned from the
federal prison at Atlanta, Ga., last
fall, at the completion of his ten
years' sentence for manslaughter, he
has not been the same man, declare
his followers. There has been a
scarcity of food and clothing and
Shilohites declare he has lost the
faculty of getting necessary finan

Two of his children and several
children of other inmates have run
away from the institution. It is
rumored that his son, John, a private
at Camp Devens, who recently mar
ried the daughter of Moses C. J.
Holland, another of the elders, has
refused to return to Shiloh.

counts of the writings that went up
in smoke withiwtthent.
When the peace conference holds
plenary sessions, at which all the
delegates are represented, there is
quite a study of huma.i nature and
its penchant for a pencil and a pad
of paper, especially at a time when
some one is speaking.
The delegates might easily be
taken for a group of newspaper cor
respondents at a national conven
tion, for at one time or another
most of them are busy scribbling
away on paper. But when all is said
and done, the paper is carefully
gathered up and heaved into a wait
ing furnace below.
President Uses Pad.
President Wilson, it is said, has
the habit of drawing lines on his
pad of paper, and a code book
would be necessary to decipher
their meanings. They are straight
lines, crooked lines, perpendicular
ones and sometimes criss-cross
lines. Secretary Lansing, however,
puts his thoughts down in the form
of pictures, but art will never know
them, for they, too, find their way
into the furnace.
Other delegates scribble away in
practically all languages under the
sun, with the exception of German,
but their hastily improvised
thoughts also go into oblivion
through the medium of a hot fire.
The caution that is taken is said
to be necessary, for as the peace
conference progresses it would be
a horrible thing it was said by one
person if a scribbled draft of the
final treaty of peace were found in
a waste basket by some inquisitive
person, especially if it were found
about three weeks before the "Big
Five" decided to tell people that it
had gotten to the point of compos
ing the final treaty.

the booze-sheviki is also after Lo's

ed by John Abbott of the Osage na

test. For years the aborigines have
temperately used peyote, a little
bean which grows on the cactus of
southwestern Texas, Mexico, and
some parts of Arizona. Under the
ternis of a bill which passed the
house, any person who introduces
peyote onto an Indian reservation
miy be fined $100 and sentenced to
a year in the penitentiary.
Indians say that the peyote is
used in the religious ceremonies of
Indian tribes, just as some denomi
nations use wine. They also deny
that it is harmful in its effects as
has been alleged.
Dr. Harvey W. Wiley recently
told the house committee on Indian
affairs that he gave a clerk one
peyote bean as an experiment and
the clerk was unable to work for
two days.

Car Arrested When 24
Pints of Booze Found
Sheriff Groneweg of Council
Bluffs last evening raided the home
of J. W. Brock, one of the pas
sengers in the death car that collid
ed with the Broadway bridge over
Indian creek, when four of his com
panions were killed, one being his
wife. The sheriff found 24 pints
of whisky, which is declared to have
been designed for bootlegging pur
poses. Brock was locked up in the
county jail charged with bootleg
ging. Two days after the fatal accident
and immediately after the funeral of
Mrs. Brock, policemen visited
Brock's home in Council Bluffs on
West Broadway and found several
dozen bottles of something that
may have been beer. The beverage
was hidden in the barn and all of
the bottles had frozen and burst.
There was nothing to analyze but
ice. Brock was not molested. O.
O. Rock, state agent, was in sheriff
Groneweg's office when Brock was
brought in and questioned him close

last night.
David's sister, young and beauti
ful, stormed and took Police Cap
tain Vanous where others, less gift
ed, had failed.
"If you can't let him go any other
way," she sobbed, "keep me in his
place. His mother's sick."
And the captain, usually inexor
able, relented. The usual bond for
vagrancy was $25. But for once
it was lowered to $20.
Twenty-nine men were arrested
yesterday and early last night on
charges of vagrancy. Commenting
on the large number of arrests made
Chief Eberstein said:
"There have been a number of
burglaries in the last few days, and
I have instructed the men to watch
everyone closely. I suppose the
large number of arrests is due to
these instructions."

Wife Gains Twenty Pounds
Taking Tanlac "Would
n't Be Without It,"
He Says.
Still another widely known and

"My wife has actually gained
twenty pounds in weiprht since she
began taking Tanlac," said Mr.
Blatherwick, in an interview recent
ly, "and has been benefited so
much in every way that I am glad
to make this statement, which I
hope will be the cause of others who
may be suffering as she did getting
relief
"She has been In such a nervous,
run-down condition for the past two
years that she was confined to her
bed a great deal of the time. She
was subject to frequent attacks of
sick headaches and often had snells
of dizziness. She also suffered in
tense pain from the gas on her
stomach, pains in her back and what
seemed to be a complete nervous
breakdown. She also had a sever
attack of Influenza, which loft her
so weak she could hardly stand up.
"She has been wonderfully bene
fited by Tanlac. In fact, I con
sider it remarkable the way she has
been built up, for she is almost like
a different person. She has been
relieved entirely of stomach trou
ble, headache and backache. I am
delighted more than I can tell with
what Tanlac has done for her and
we would not be without it now for
anything. It is by far the best med
icine she has ever taken."

Everyone Should
Drink Hot Water
in the Morning
Wash away all the stomach,
liver, and bowel poisons
before breakfast.
To 'eel your best day in and day
out, to feel clean inside; no sour bile
to coat your tongue and sicken your
breath or dull your head; no con
stipation, bilious attacks, sick bead
ache, colds, -rheumatism or gassy,
acid stomach, you must bathe on the
inside like you bathe outside. This
is vastly more important, because
the skin pores do not absorb impur
ities into the blood, while the bowel
porea do, says a well-known, physi
cian. To keep these poisons and toxins
well flushed from the stomach, liv
er, kidneys and bowels, drink before
breakfast each day, a glass of hot
water with a teaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate in it. This will
cleanse, purify and freshen the en
tire alimentary tract, before put
ting more food into the stomach.
Get a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from your pharmacist. It
is inexpensive and almost tasteless.
Drink phosphated hot water every
morning to rid your system of these
vile poisops and toxins; also to pre
vent their formation.
As soap and hot water act on tha
skin, cleansing, sweetening and pur
ifying, so limestone phosphate and
hot water before breakfast, act oi
the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels. Adv.
