ruptcy Of Europe, to which the continual
tion Of the war will surely lead?
But where to find the remedy to ward
OF the impending cataClysm? Where is
the man who will take 1t on himself to
seize the spOkes of the rolling, annihilat-
ing juggernaut? l know two men. One
has the moral authority and the other
the material resources to take up the
task. l refer to the Pope and the Presi-
dent of the United States
IF Benedict XIV and Mr. Wilson would
join hands in the work Of rescue they
would succeed. The moral authority and
influence of the former extends the world
over He further enjoys the respect OF
those not subjected TO his spiritual aU-
thority. The other man has the material
power for it needs but word from him
and the war would end tomorrow. II he
would step forward energetiCally and de-
cree that no more arms or ammunition
or war supplies should be furnished the
belligercnt nations by the United States
he would deprive the former OF further
ability to carry on the war, for. in view
Of the senseless and extravagant expendi-
ture OF ammunition, it is clearly demon
strated that none of them Is physically
able to produce the materials to carry on
the struggle. The war would end auto
matically because OF lack OF materials.
Germany today is in the position Of a
oesiegcd force. When the besiegers stop
the besieged naturally have no further
occasion for hinderance OF the path which
might lead to an honorable peace for all
But to the men thus qualified to roll
away the Alpine burden and call a halt
on the insane mass numbering would
come an undying reward and they would
stand forth in history in even greater
proportions than the greatest war
heroes"

.PULMOTOR KEEPS BOY
ALIVE FOR IL HOURS
But 7-Year-Old Youngster Finally
Succumbs to Paralysis.
pecisI to The Washington Herald.

Special to The Washington Herald.
Baltimore, Sept 26.-For more than
twelve hours-from early yesterday after
noon to early this morning-Adrian Dues
berg, the 7-year-old son of Prof dulles
Duesberg. of Johns Hopkins University,
was kept alive by the pulmotor OF the
Gas and Electric Company. But this arti-
fetal respiration failed to save the child's
life. He died shortly before o'clock this
morning from infantile paralysis, which
attacked his respiratory organs and made
natural breathing impossible.
DIR. Duesberg, noted in the medical
profession as an embryolosist and for
merly professor of embryology and pa
thoIogy. at Liege, Belgium, said that
everything that medical science could do
to save his little sons life was done, but
that the case seemed utterly hopeless
from the time that it assumed its serious
aspect
Adrian was moved yesterday from his
parents home in the Tudor Hall apart
ments, University Parkway, to the Chill
dren's Hospital School, on Green Spring
avenue. To have moved the boy without
providing artificial respiration, the phy-
sicians who attended him said, would
have caused his death within FIVE min
utes. The pulmotor, therefore, was in
stalled in an ambulance, and shortly
after l o clock Adrian was taken to the
hospital school, where the physicians felt
that his life could be saved If salvation
were within the range Of medical science.

British Made Capture in August.
.ctaI 10 nc Washington HernId. .

Special to The Washington Herald
New York, Sept. 26.-The German
submarine Bremen will never reach
the United States, for the reason that
she has been captured by British au-
thorities, according to DIR. r. Aait Nc
Kenzie, professor OF physical education
in the University of Pennsylvania, who
has just returned after 4 sixteen
months stay in England.
DR.. Mckenzie said the U-boat was
captured in the English Channel in
August. His information came from
a London diamond merchant. who said
he had been called in by the govern
ment to appraise diamonds found in
the hold of the Bremen.
Officials OF the T. A. Scott Wrecking
Company, at New London, Conn. said
today they had no definite knowledge
of the near approach of a German un-
dersea merchantmen. but they admitted d
that Westerly tug had been hired
to be on the lookout for one. This tug
was engaged to take the place of one
of the company's boats which has been
ordered to Portland. Me.

Special to The Washington Herald.


Baltimore, Sept. 26.-Judson c. Glenn
ents, Interstate Commerce Commission
er, speaking at the third session of the
twentieth annual meeting of the Grain
Dealers National Association this
morning, state that an effective rem
edy for the dissensions between the
railroads and their employees will be
found in the recognition of the prin-
ciple that those who engage as en-
ployes in the public service of the
transportation companies are just as
much engaged in interstate commerce
as are the companies themselves, and
that such employees are Affected in the
same way and to the same extent as
are the companies themselves, with a
public interest that they can no more
ignore than the companies"
Following this thought, Judge Glenn
ents continued;
Il would suggest, that is, to write
into the law a legally established OBJ
legation and duty upon every emplOye
who seeks and accepts service with the
transportation companies not to leave
the service or combine with others to
do so on account of any controversy
thereafter arising concerning any
change in the conditions of service
or rates of compensation except upon
due notice to be prescribed by stature,
permitting a sufficient length of time
for a fair and impartial investigation
and determination of the matter in
controversy. either by arbitration or by
some duly constituted public tribunal"

effect of the war in Europe upon the

Is shown in an extensive exhibit at the
Second National Exposition of Chemical
Industries at the Grand Central Palace.
More than 400 colors and shades are dis
played in one exhibit alone. The manu-
facturers said it now was clearly demon
strated that America need no longer de-
pend on Germany for dyes.
H. G. McKerrow, manager of the textile
department of the Marden, Orth & Hast
lngs Company. said this country shoulo
become the largest producer of dyes iE
the world. He added:
Germany manufactures all aniline COL
ors, the direct, acid. indanthrene, vat and
basic The direct is used for cotton, the
acid for silk and wool the idanthrene for
cotton, the vat for silk, and the basic for
silk and cotton. We are now producing
some basic and some direct. which have
been developed by extracting the color
from natural woods, like logwood, hema-
tine. quercitron. fustic, sumach, and
Usage orange. We have produced 40
colors, and from these direct or from
combinations we can match any shade
yet produced"
