Blames Slavs for
Causing Big War

Correspondence Of the Associated Press)
VENICE, April 1o.-Count Julius Ant
Grassy, former Hungarian minister of the
interior, has written book, just pub
lished at Budapest, entitled who Is Re-
sponsibIe for the Ware The book has
received official approval and Is to be
published in German at Leipsic and Ber-
lin, and in Switzerland in French. A ver-
sion in English will also be brought out.
County Andrassy is at present in Leipsic
experimenting the publication.
The count argues in his book that slav
aspirations brought about the war, and
that the Russian ambition to possess the
Dardanelles contributed greatly to it. He
asserts that Austria and Germany had no
intention in the beginning Of territorial
ACKNOWLEDGMENT, and urges them not to
think of It when final victory is won. He
thinks they should be satisfied with mon
etary compensation. and that any terri
torial additions to their boundaries would
not look well or prove of any great adj
vantage.

Few Folks Have
Gray Hair Now
Well-known local druggist says
ever, body is using old-time recipe
Of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Hair that loses it's color and luster,
or when it fades, turns gray. dull ami
lifeless. is caused by lack OF sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made up
a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to
keep her locks dark and beautiful, and
thousands OF women and men who val
ue that even color, that beautiful dark
shade of hair which is so attractive,
use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for a
5O-cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" which darkens the
hair so naturally. so evenly, that no.
body can possibly tell It has been APP
piled. Besides, it takes off dandruff,
stops scalp itching and falling hair.
You just dampen a sponge or soft brush
with IL and draw this through your
hair, taking one small strand at time.
BY morning the gray hair disappears;
but what delights the ladies with
wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, II also brings
back that gloss ana luster and gives 1t
an appearance OF abundance.-Adver-
tisement.

standing the war, Is going on in and UNI

north-and-south street. and in carrying
out this scheme It has Just torn away the
chief bridge over the Spree. 1t is also
putting four-track tunnel under the ia
nous street Inter den Linden, so that

Tea and Soda Pop on
Tap at Despard Arms

Correspondence of The Associated Press.)
LONDON, April 1.-THE 'Despard

suffragette leader, Mrs. Despard, with
view to Turing young men ana young
women away from places smelling of beer
and liquors, has been opened to the public
in one OF the Iaboring districts.
The model house is situated upstairs.

Easy for Outsider
To Get Liquor at
The Glasgow Clubs

(Correspondence OF Associated Press)
GLASGOW, scotland, April i7.-Several
Of the labor delegations which urged upon
Chancellor Lloyd George the advisability
Of total prohibition of alcoholic liquors
during the war, made a particular point
OF the fact that any such prohibition. to
be effective. must apply to private clubs
as well as to saloons and hotels.
While this was urged partly on the
ground that any such prohibition should
operate equally upon all classes. 1t was
also observed that in many towns it
would be futile TO close the bar rooms
and leave the clubs open. Glasgow is
the most striking example OF this, for
the workingmen's clubs here are very
numerous. and they practically all serve
liquor
These clubs. in fact, have completely
defeated the object of recent legislation
for the early closing OF saloons in Great
Britain. Early closing and Sunday clos
ing in Glasgow merely transfers the
drinking from the licensed houses to the
clubs.
The membership fees to these working
mems clubs are generally nominal, and
in many cases are dispensed with en-
tirely through the presenta ton OF form
of receipt for money which has never
been paid. The law requires that only
members may be allowed admittance to
club serving liquors. but the enforce
ment in Glasgow is very lax, and news
paper investigator last sunday obtained
admission unquestloned 10 a large num-
Der Of clubs, although he was not a
member Of any. In several Of them he
found upwards OF $50 persons seated
around the tables.

White house and state department
officials agree that Germany in taking
initiative has changed her former at
titude of indifferences. Carried to
logical conclusion. il is believed that
cordial relations easily can be cOntin-
ued. But the German newspaper de-

a great ammunition carrier laden
with gold TO purchase more causes
fear that an attempt may be made at
justification.
And it can be stated on authority
second only To the president that any
attempt at justification will be follow
ed Immediately by the recall of Am
bassadOr Gerard.
Only explanation that explains. or
a disavOwal and apology with prom
ise of reparatiOn. will satisfy the
United States. II is held by the ad-
ministration that the time has come
when a positive position must be
maintained regardless OF cost if the
world influence of the nation is to be
retained.
No Ground For Action.
If it should develop, as has been
hinted in German official quarters,
that the Arabic was sunk by a tor
pedo intended for the Dunsley, there
will be 10 grounds for action by this
goVernm- mt, although stringent dam
ages might be asked for the loss OF
two American lives. But il is likely
that the administration Will ask that
the German outline its future policy
and say whether it has accepted the
American viewpoint regarding the
conduct Of its submarine warfare
All of the afidavits from Arabic

facts:
The Arabic was torpedoed: no
