No Hatred

Although we'd can that kaiser

chap, we chant no bitter hymn OF
hate as we go forth to scrap.
When we have polished off the
Hun, no vengeance we'll demand; ;
we'll calmly put away the gun IN
our umbrella stand. Some nations,
worn by pain and toll, may pos
sibly remark that William should
be boiled in oil, his son fed to
shark. But there's no hatred in
our heart, we're sane and circum-
spect; when we've upset Bills
apple cart. harsh measures we'll
reject. Well put old Kaiser Bill
away, where he can do no harm,
and set the kron prinz pitching
hay on some sequestered farm.
For Hindenburg a lonely rock, an
island bleak and bare, where gulls
around his head will flock, and
lay eggs in his hair. We wish to
see the German state once more
happy land, and we shall whoop
no hymn of hate. when old Red
Bill is canned. The kron prinz
must be in a crate, Pop linden
burg in jail. or Though we sing
no hymn of hate) our work will
not avail. WALT MASON.

MANY AMERICANS ARE
HELD IN GERMANY

Washington. May 28.-The number
of Americans being detained in Ger
many is shown by official records to
be greater than was believed.
The protest to Berlin, sent yester-
day through Spain, was based upon
the specific information regarding the
detention of two Americans at Ant
werp, but general reports indicate that
several Americans in different parts
of the territory now controlled by Ger
many are being prevented from leav-
ing. The total number of Americans
yet in Germany is about 300, but it is
estimated perhaps four fifths have re-
mained voluntarily as they are of
German birth or decended from Ger
man parents and are Americans only
by naturalization.
About 120 other Americans, classed
as prisoners of war, are held because
they were landed in Germany from
ships sunk by submarines.

BY MARK LARKIN.

Los Angeles. Cal, May ga lone
young man and a powerful corporation
are waging a weird legal battle here
with a little more than six acres of
land as the prize.
The belligerents are Kenneth Wal
lace. son of the former lieutenant gov
ernor of this state, and the vast Hunt
ington interests, at the head of which
is Henry E. Huntington, southern
California multi millionaire.
The row started nearly three years
ago when Young Wallace stalked out
into the heart of the mag aenificent estate
at Pasadena, In the shadow of mil
lonaires' mansions, and proceeded to
homestead 6.23 acres of what he
claimed was government land.
Agents of the land company watched
their chance for action. One day
when Wallace had left his claim" to
buy supplies they threw his tent and
belongings into the middle of the pub
lie highway.
Then the court fight began. An in
junction was obtained against the bold
"squatter." The case has gone to the
national capital twice and company
officials threaten "interminable legis-
latlon."
In the meantime. young Wallace has
found a job as tool-dresser at an OF
well at Taft, Cal, and is working
patiently. awaiting the outcome.
The property which he claims thu
big corporation has no title to was
supposed originally to be a part Of ar
old Mexican grant.

The property in dispute is worth

nit they own $4,000, 900 in land in the
