Former Chamberlain
To Pope Sentenced to
Life for Teuton Plot
Monsignor Gerlach Missing
from Rome; Guilty of Aiding
Destruction of Warships

Rome, June -Monsignor Gerlach,
Prelate knight and former first private
chamberlain to the Pope. was found
guilty to-day Of being chief of the
pro-German propaganda in the papal
court and in high circles throughout
the kingdom. Though he is at present
& fugitive from Italy, ne was sentenced
to Imprisonment for life. Pomarice, an
accompice, who fed into Switzerland
with Gerlach, was sentenced to be shot.
The investigation OF the activities
Of Monsignor Gerlach, an Austrian
born and the only German prel-
ate in the Pope's retinue. was
begun by the Italian secret SER
vice after the Italian battleships
Benedetto Brin and Leonardo da Vinci
had been blown up in port with great
loss OF life. The Benedetto Brin was
destroyed in 1915 and year later the
Leonardo da Vinci exploded at Tarsnto,
killing 2i8 men.
One ol lHc piONttin aiiesNcu AZ INV
time, an Italian named Ambrogetti, is
said to have confessed that ne was the
financial agent OF Monsignor Gerlach,
and that before the war he was inter
ested with the prelate in a pro-Austran
newspaper published at Vittoris. Mon
signor Gerlach, before becoming q
priest, was a cavalry officer.
When he left Italy. just after the
investigation got under way, the over
seas News Agency issued a statemen,
that he had been forced 10 leave. and
declaring that, although he belonged
to the personal service Of the Holy
Father, the Vatican had to submit 10

On the whole, fhe individualistlc age

Individual or the ccmmuHity in which

We are, beyond question, entering on
a period where the welfare of the COM

erty of the individual will be more and
more circumscribed for the benefit of the
community as whole.

WHY 1NnIvIDI1ALISM IS AS DEAD ASASMEL
By George w. Perkins.

"Indivdualism is as dead as sme!
That is my contention.
In this country We have been Iyn
In an age Of the utmost freedom to tIr
individual. 1t has been the individual
htic period
In the early days, when instantaneous
intercommunication did not exist, when
education was meagre and science un'
developed, what the individual did was
of comparatively small consequence, Tor
his deeds did not reach very far and did
not affect many people.
with intercommunicatlon drawing
the world together ia one Centralized
community, the act Of the Individual
can affect a large number OF pcrsons)
therefore. that form of freedom which
IN simply another expression ZOE IL
censc to do as enc pleases can mo
longer exist,
Society is finding it necessary to take
away much of what has hitherto been
called freedom of the individual" In
my Judgment this process is only in its
infancy.
Until recent years ittie broad think
z
Ing was given to this problem and djf'
ferences were settled on the basis OF
"might makes right" All this is rap"
idly changing and we are entering q
period of new industrial relationships.
In my Judgment we are just now
catering period Of coparfnexship'
where the tool user will be part teoI
owner and where capital and Labor
will share moro equitably In the
Profits of the business In which they
arc Jointly engaged.
This advance is inevitable because OF
our educational system, which teaches
the worxingman to think for himself.
It is inevitable because strikes ans
lockouts can never be settled Satisfac'
torily or permanently by merely rails
ing q mans wages.
No mere increase in wages can ever
satisfactorily solve this problem. 1t can
be solved only on the basis Of profit
sharing.
By profit sharing do not mean bonus
giving.
Profit sharing can be done satisfactt
rily only when the business concern makes
public its transactions, so that the la
borer and the stockholder can know al
much about the business as does th'
manager himself.
In the adjustment of difficulties be-
tween capital and labor I am conf
dent that open books will accomplish
much more than open shops.
About the only goal we have had ha

Faulty Sweet Potato Storage.
