BERGER BELIEVES

MAKE PEACE

That Aristide BRAND. former So
cialist and new premier in France.
is big enough and strong enough to
make an honorable peace with Ger
many and end . war I'm which
France can gain nothing. but still
lose a world of men and treasure, =
was stated today by Victor L.
Berger, former congressman, and
a leader In the Socialist party. In
an exclusive interview to the Unit
ed Press on the effect which the ap-
pointment of former Socialist as
premier of the French cabinet will
have on the European war.
THE change in the French cab
met clearly signifies further dis
indignation Of the Allies" continued
Berger ut Is a mute protest Of
France against the continuation Of
a war In which France, while sac
riicing most in men and money--is
playing second fiddle to Great
Britain and Is pulling the chsstnuts
out of the fire for the British en-
pire. The Socialists Of France are

BRITAIN WANTS
NO PEACE ON
PRESENT BASIS
By UNITED1PRESs.

LONDON. Oct. 29.--An emphatic
denial that Great Britain was en-
gagged in any peace negotiations,
direct or indirect, was made by
David Lloyd-George. the minister Of
munitions. In reply to a question In
the house of commons last night.
I.loyd-George spoke for Premier
Asquith. when the question, Of
which Amman Bryce had given no.
tice. came up. The query was as to
whether UNOFFICIAL exchanges Of
views had been carried on between
Berlin and London with the possible
object of the conclusion Of an early
peace. and whether inquiries Of q
similar nature had been made by
ofiicial representatives of any neu-
trail power.

DODGE PREDICTS
LOWER FARES

"'rhe question that In to be de-
oided on Nov. 2 II whether or not
the people of Detroit want municipal
ownership" said Railway Commits
sioner John r. Dodge before q crowd
of about 800 employees Of the De
troit Stove Works at a noon meet
ing, Friday. He also expressed the
opinion that the city would be able
to lower the fares.
Mayor Marx assured the men that
municipal ownership Of the street
car lines would not add single
cent to the tax burden. He said the
fares, under municipal ownership,
would remain the same until such
time as the margin Of profits would
warrant a reduction. Politics, he de-
clared, would not interfere with the
operation Of the street car system
Many of the men In the crowd knew
the mayor personally Che was for
merly alderman from the Fifteenth
ward in which the stove works Ia
located, and saluted him. His re-
marks were not applauded.

WILD CHASE
HAS SEQUEL IN
POLICE COURT

A nights carousal, an automobile
collision and an exciting four-mile
chase figure In the case Of Thomas
F. Halloran, Of No. 100 Trumbull-
ave., ward politician and ex-saloon
keeper, who was arraigned before
Police Justice Sellers, Friday morn
ing. on a charge OF drunkenness.
The hearing was postponed until
Nov. 5.
Halloran and Martin Moloney, an
other ward politician, were out in
Halloran's touring car Thursday
night. On Farnsworth-st.. near
Brush, their machine collided with
the car OF Dr. w. H. Browne, of the
David Whitney building, parked at
The curb, and the physicians car
was wrecked. With only the radi-
ator of their. machine out of COM
mission, Halloran Is alleged to have
backed away and driven on. Browne
learned Of the accident and chased
the two men for four miles before
they were overtaken.
Patrolman William Burch was
called by the physician and both
men were taken TO the second pre-
cinct station before Lieut.. Bernard
DeRosso. Both men pleaded to be
released, but the lieutenant disre.
garded them and locked up Hailor-
an on charge of drunkenness. Then
Moloney became insolent, IL Is al
legged. and threatened that he would
"get" DeRosso's uniform. He was
ordered to leave the station.
A release for Halloran was OBJ
tanned from Justice Carney, late
Thursday night.
Halloran's case was called for
$3.50 o'clock, Friday morning. AT
10 o'clock he leisurely strolled into
the court room, surrounded by a
number Of his friends. DR.. Browne
and Halloran arranged q satisfac-
tory settlement Of the damages to
the physicians machine. Then the
case was postponed week.
A clerk in the police court build
Ing went TO the newspaper report
ers and insisted that the story be
suppressed, threatening to withhold
news In future II this were not done
Five minutes later a chauffeur,
Joseph Nagel, Of No. $50 Wood.
ward-ave. was arraigned for being
drunk while driving his car. The
offense was identical with that Of
which Halloran is charged.
You have engaged In very
dangerous practice" said Justice
Sellers. "If yon had been brought
into the recorders court this would
have cost you $50"
whereupon he sentenced Nagei

IN the workhouse.

WOMAN KILLER
STICKS CLOSE TO
DEPUTY SHERIFF

Although he IL on trial for an
alleged crime which may send him
to prison for life. Valentine Stimac
Is probably the most popular pris-
oner who has ever been placed In
the charge OF . deputy sheriff Of
Wayne county. Stimac shot and
killed his common-law wife, Julia
Batusek, when he found her in the
embrace of her husband by law,
Raymond Batusek, whom she mar
ried after having lived as Mrs.
Stimac for eight years.
Stimac, . giant, red-haired Croa.
tian, has formed q liking for some
OF the deputies that is almost an af-
lection. He remains close by their
side. and at times refuses to be sep
aratcd from them.
During q recess In his trial. Fri.
day. the prisoner went with Deputy
Sheriff Joseph Pilarski from the
court to an ante room In the sher.

DRYING WITHOUT USE OF IRON
Curtains May Be Turned Out in First
Class Shape If These Methods
Are Employed.

Place two extension brackets on the'
wall about six feet apart and seven
feet from the floor. II wall is plas-
tered, be sure they are in studding-
In the Dashboard, directly under each
bracket, place a screw hook with the
hook turned down. Chose which come
with curtain rods are best). Get two
narrow Stats about six feet long from
a carpenter shop. Wash curtains, and
while wet run one slat through frill
and place on brackets. Run other
slat through hem and catch under
lower hooks. Put on one pair at a
time. Full them on Stats slightly and
they will dry in beautiful folds. They
cannot stretch, and require no IRON
ing, not even the edging. Lower
hooks may be adjusted if curtains are
not all one length.
