Baltimore Magnate
Ready for Trouble
Jack Dunn Plans to Attack
Joint Meeting of Majors and
' Minors,' January 10.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Dee Leased Wire.
Baltimore, Jan. 3. Jack Dunn,
Baltimore' base ball magnate, an
nounced yesterday that he would at
tack the joint meeting of majors and
minors to ' be held - in t Chicago on
January 10. ' '
Wrhile. the question of the". draft
has been settled, the big thing now
on the program for the International
league and the American association
is for them to decide whether,' they
want to continue as members of the
National Association of . Major
leagues or whether they will declare
their independence and conduct their
own affairs independentof the ma
jors and minors. ( .
Dunn, who lathered tne movement
to wipe out the draft is equally
strong for .the plan to have the
American association and Interna
tional form a new body of their own.
He claims it will give them more
prestige. "It will rid them of the
smaller leagues, who have been
running things to suit themselves in
the National association. It will
be another step in development of
the major league base ball. Indeed
with no draft and operating in
dependently the two leagues will be
practically majors.
Zuppke Has New ,
Idea on Foot Ball
Chicago, Jan. 3. Coach Robert
C. Zupple of Illinois, who attended
the convention here of the National
Intercollegiate association, advanced
a new idea for a foot ball rle when
he asserted that a gain or score made
by a man who recovers a fumbled
ball should not be counted.
The nan who usually makes such
a gain or touchdown is one who
might be termed the "loafer" in the
team, who lags behind waiting for
such an opportunity, he says.
The man responsible .tor tne tum
ble and the possible subsequent
touchdown- is ' punished enough by
the loss of the ball

Legion to Turn
Searchlight on
Nonpartisan Head
Salina, Kan., Post Plans Cam
paign of Publicity Against
Townley and Crew of
Organizers.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire,
Salina. Kan.. Tan. 3. The Amer
ican Legion post in Salim- county
is preparing to turn the searchlight
ot publicity on A. C. lownley and
his nonpartisan league crew. It's
to be a fight of facts about the
league, a fight of meeting prona
ganda with propaganda. The de
cision to bring the odium of pub-
.1 tin' ft r
iiciiy upon ine Dig Kmei . ana bis
paid organizers was made at a spe
cial meeting yesterday, j .
O. A. Kitterman, commander of
the post, by unanimous vote of his
comrades, was given full power to
act in swinging the full weight of
the local legion membership into
force.
"The legion men believe that the
people of Saline county are as will
ing to listen to our "speakers, and
read our literature as they are to
read that of Townley," Kitterman
said, lownley is a master at pro
paganda. He is a psychologist of
the crowd and the individual. . If
our post can bring to Sal'na and
Saline county, a crew of speakers
and men who know Townley's
faithlessness to the farmers in North
Dakota, of his arrest and convic
tion for espiSnage in Minnesota and
of his secret caucus that ruled North
Dakota like a tyrant, then we be
lieve we can whip Townley at his
own game." .
t Kitterman received telegrams to
day, from posts in several towns
in the vicinity of Salina. These
messages assured him that the posts
of Kansas would co-operate with
the Salina organization in the fight
against Townley. A meeting of
the legion will be held Tuesday
night when Kitterman will appoint
his committee to arrange the de
tails of the fight,
Lack of Enlistments
Cuts German Army to '
Below 100,000 Men
New York TImes-Chlceto Tribune Cable
Copyrifbt, 1921.
By GEORGE SELDES. ,
Berlin, Jan. 3. The new year
finds . Germany's standing army not
only cut down to 100,000 men, but
actually below that figure, on ac
count of lack of enlistments. On
the other hand the einwohnerwehr
(civilian guard), flourishes. It num
bers hundreds of thousands, despite
the disarmament notes and threats.
The reichswehr, according to the
peace treaty, is limited to 96,000 and
4,000 officers. While Germany is
clamoring for more, protesting " it
cannot safeguard the Prussian bor
der against bolsheviks with that
number of men, it is officially admit
ted it has only 90,000 soldiers and
officers enrolled.
Likewise the armed police force,
which is limited to 150,000, remains
below that strength. Poor pay, long
term enlistments and confusion over
its legal status are reasons for poor
enlistments.

night, members of the Argentina
cabinet and of Mr. Colby s party
were present.
Mr. Colby, who visited Brazil and
Uruguay as ' a personal emissary of 1
President Wilson, returning official
visits, declared his call- here as that
of "only an admiring and appreciate
jve guest passing a few brief hours
in your midst, but long enough to de
liver a message of the friendship and
good will I bear you."
He referred to many things which
"tend to sow misunderstandings,"
including the "impalpable and sinis
ter activity of the propagandist who
is willing to deceive and embitter a
whole people to serve his sordid
ends." He declared that "there is
no better way to counteract these
regrettable tendencies than an open
meeting, face to face, of disinter
ested and responsible spokesmen of
friendly peoples, . the encouragement
of every form of intercourse,, and
frequent . and intimate official and
unofficial exchanges between thim."
Torello described as an "unfor
gettable token of friendship" the
courtesies extended by the United
States during the war when she
offered an escort of war vessels to
the Argentine battleship Rivadavia
(luring a visit of that vessel to the
United States on an important mis
sion.

Well Known Auctioneer
Fell Off from 227 Pounds
to 130 Tanlac Restores
Health Now Weighs

" I'm going to tell it all just like
it happened and if anybody doubts
it just let them come to sec inc."
said Samuel McKinley in relating
his remarkable experience with Tan
lac at the Owl Drug Store in Kan
sas City, Mot, the other day.
Mr. McKinley has been a jewelry
auctioneer for the past 30 years, and
is known in a great many establish
ments throughout the West as an
expert in his line. He resides at
2504 East Twenty-second street,
Kansas City, Mo.
"Twenty years ago," he explained
"my stomach went wrong and 1 be
gan suffering from Vhat was pro
nounced gastritis. At that time I
balanced the scales at 227 pounds
and hardly knew my strength. My
troubles pulled me down to 130
pounds, making a loss of 97 pounds,
and you may know by this that there
was something radically wrong with
me. I was only a skeleton of what
1 had been.
"I had headaches and dizzy spells,
and would bloat so badly after eat

I often thought I would surely die
and felt that death would have been
preferable to such awful misery. 1

Question Result
Of Reprisal Move
Public. Opinion Shocked
When Details of Burniiii
: Of Middleton Are Made
Public.
London, Jan. 3. Public opinioi.
received a shock when the details ot
the ' burning of the Irish town ot
Middleton on Saturday were made
public yesterday. This shork was
particularly felt in quarters whore if
had been supposed that martial law
in southwestern Ireland would pit'
an end to such reprisals. Nowhere is
there outspoken approval of the
punishment meted out to the Irish
village by Major General Sir Edwanl
Strickland, and there evidently is
some reluctance to endorse this
method of keeping order.
In official statements it is de
clared that seven dwellings in
Middleton were destroyed as a result
of an ambush of police near that
town last Wednesday. Declaration
that the authorities had decided that
the people living in certain houses in
the vicinity of the outrage must have
known of the plot to ambush the
police, and that after the inmates of
the houses selected for destruction
had been warned to leave, the build
ings were set on fire. The occupants
were permitted to remove their val
uables, but had to leave their furni
ture behind.
While declining to question the act
of burning the houses, on the ground
that it was a drastic measure, the
London Times questions the ade
quacy of the explanation that the in
habitants of the burned dwellings
were bound to have known of the
ambush.
"Official reprisal," the newspaper
continues, "may be a rough form of
justice, but, despite the roughness,
the element of justice should be al
ways beyond question." '
The Daily News says "the reports
will be read by amazement and
despair. It is a savage outrage upon
human decency, and the matter can
not be left where it is."
The Daily Herald, organ of labor,
calls it "savage and diabolical vio
lence," and calls upon labor to stop
"this war upon a nation."
