Guard To Be Sent Home,
Despite German Plot
Regulars Declared Able to
Hold Up Any Attack
From The Tribune Bureau

Washington, March 1.-The German
attempt TO provoke a Mexican attack
on the United States will not affect
the order demobilizing the National
Guard, it was said authoritatively at
the War Department to-day. All the
militiamen will leave the border, to
be mustered out as fast as transporta-
tion can be arranged
There was no evidence of fear among
Administration officials that the Ger
man plot to enlist Carranza's and
Japan's support would be successful.
The feeling is tina, any change in
plans along the Mexican border would
betrav an unfriendly distrust of the
Mexican government. Military au-
thorities say the regular force on the
border is ample TO cope with any at
tempted invasion until the militia
could again be concentrated.
Secretary Lansing made this state
mont:
I'VE do not believe that Japan has
had any knowledge Of this, or that she
would consider any proposition made
by an enemy. We are confident also
that the Mexican government would
not be q party to any such negotia-
tion -

Harry Sussman, confessed stool

money from the Tenderloin, was the
chief witness yesterday against De
tective David A. Foley, formerly at
tached to the "vice squad" who is on
trial before Supreme Court Justice
Tompkns, charged with bribery.
Sussman told of his meetings with
Foley and Sergeant Detective William
:. Enrght, who is jointly indicted with
Foley, at the Arlington Boat Club"
rooms, in Arlington Hall. Early in
April, 1915, Sussman said, the de-
PENDANTS complained that ne was not
turning up enough business" Suss-
man testified that ne steered the de-
tectives to Mrs. Matilda Messner, of
146 East Twenty-seventh Street.
Mrs. Messner agreed to send her nus
band, Simon Messner, down to Airing
ton Hall 10 meet Enright and Foley on
April s, Sussman testified. When
Messner got there with Sussman Foley
had left word that he and Enright
would be in Special Sessions, where
they had a case on. Sussman testified
that he took Messner down to the

out in the corridor and took $25 OF the
money Then each one Of them gave
me s.. Messner gave me $50 month
for two months after that and we
made the same split-up."
Sussman said Foley complained in
April, 1914, that Enright was getting
"the sugar" and was not splitting. lie
said he took Foley TO Greenwich
Street resort, kept by n Greek. The
latter. Sussman said, pleaded poor bust
ness and poverty. but he and Foley
rummaged around until they found
some money in a strong box hidden
away in a bureau drawer in the room
of the Greeks wife. Sussman said the
Greek finally agreed 70 give them the
money $50 altogether.
~ hen we got outside Foley said 20
me, Rum rum and we ran as fast as
we could for five blocks" said Suss-
man.

might yell for the police" replied Suss-
man, gravely.

love of country. Love your country
enough to keep it out of war. What we
dread is a stampede. Remember the
Maine made one war Don't let the
newspapers make another.
For three years we have seen what
war is. War is not glorious; it is blind
violence. War does not prove who is
right. II only proves who is strong
enough to win. II helps the profit
makers; IL hurts everybody else. Re-
member, IL is easier to stay out Of war
than TO get out after we are in.
Write your Congressman and Sena-
tors. Say we will not battle for en-
pires and big interests. We are the
friends Of all peoples. We will no,
make war"
Pinchot's Statement
Amos Pinchot said: "In my opinion
the public will not be much impressed
with the Zimmerman disclosure. DR.
Iimmermann's proposal to turn MeXic,
and Japan against us in case OF war is
as fantastic as it is discreditable. II
IL represents official Germany, it shows
that official Germany is distinctly up
against it and has cracked under the
strain. The United States should not
be drawn INTO war on account or the
Zimmerman memorandum.
"Our people do not want war with
Germany. and the zimmerman incl
dent offers no reason for their chang
ing their minds. Germany's armies are
surrounded; her fleet is bottled up;
her people are hungry, and her U-boat
campaign is obviously failing, as ma

politics Of their city and get square

When Mrs. Lindsey first took Office
90 per cent of the city employees who
were getting less than $50 week were
in the grip Of the Los Angeles loan
sharks. and 30 per cent of the money
paid out was finding its way 10 the loan
sharks hands. Mrs. Lindsey got
around this, and incidentally put the
biggest and most prosperous shark out
of business, by getting an amendment
passed which provided that the city
should pay its employees weekly, instead
Of monthly, as before.
Gets Money for Nurses
In Los Angeles all city employees ex-
cept Board Of Health nurses were get

carfare. Mrs. Lindsey asked that these
women should have their carfare paid
also.

they wanted to give a dinner.
"No; there isn't money enough said
Mrs. Lindsey, firmly. She said 1t nise

theirs, and then her nurses got their
carfare.
She has served upon three commit
tees-the Welfare Committee, the
Safety Committee and the Health Com
mittee. The first Of these is probably
the most important one of the City
Council, because it deals with city
wrangles of various kinds. She has
also promoted the playground mountain
camps. Just when she finds time to
write poetry Mrs. Lindsey does not say,
but she not only writes it-sny one can
do thst-but gets it published in the
current magazines.
"But politics is more fun than even
poetry" she declares to the envious

ell board Of large city, Mrs. Estelle
Lawton Lindsey, Of Los Angeles. ar
rived here yesterday full of enthusiasm
for her job.
Although she is a city mother and a
feminine Columbus when it comes to
discovering new inches for women in
politics, Mrs. Lindsey is 100 per cent
sheer woman; so she went shopping
first. Then she was ready tc talk over
her experiences as a member of the
City Council of Los Angeles.
Looking at her, it was little hard
TO believe that one so small and pink
checked should have put the loan
sharks out of business in her home
town and have accomplished several
other reforms in the two years she has
held office.

on which she was elected, il consisted

that women had right TO city repre-

BILL RARIDEN makes
M'CARTY'S Shoes FIT HIM

Recent records of the National League
show that Bill Rariden, Of the New
York Giants, is leading his teammates
at bat with a percentage of 81 and is
in eighth place in the league.
Rariden started the season as second
string catcher of the Giants, being con
sidered a weak hitter.
When Lew McCartY broke his leg
early in the season Rariden was pushed
into the first position. and it was up to
him to make good.
In the field Rariden was always con
sidered az capable catcher as McCarty,
and Just how well he has held up his
end at bat is shown bv the record
McGraw has been particularly fortu-
nate in having his second string catch
ers come to life when the regular was
unfit for duty.
When Chief Myers was injured in the
world series in 1918 Art Wilson and
Larry Mclean filed in and played the
kind of ball that the Chief would
have been proud Of
