Prlssian Militarism Must
Go Says Gerard at Tacoma

Tacoma. Sept. 2?.-This nation, said
former Ambassador to Germany James
w. Gerard in a public address here
this afternoon. cannot live in peace
with a nation like Prussia, Whose
chief business is war.
Nothing you have will be of any
value at all unless we succeed in wip-
ing this autocracy off the face of tho
earth," he said. After describing Ger
man atrocities in war time, Mr.. Gerard
continued:
Germany has been carrying on a
clever campaign in this country for al
least 25 years to make Germans here
loyal to the fatherland. 1t would bs
a very wholesome lesson if some OF
these pro-Germans in America could
be shipped back to their country and
a few of the Prussian- Irish with them.

WI4lTEY LEWlS'S PAL HIT TRAIL

Down in Chinatown, where the streets are still as crooked as the dwellers there used to be, and where religion comes straight and unadorned, there appeared few nights ago an evangelist who, despite the fact that he is barely 8 years old can look back over a career of crime IS varied as that of one of Sing Sings lifers.
 He is George B. Ellis, and he spoke at the Rescue Society Mission. Just seven years ago to the day he passed the mission with Whitey Lewis, the gunman who was electrocuted for the murder of Herman ROsenthal. and heard the strain of hymn flowing through the open door.
 Lets go in and see what it's all about, Whitey." he suggested. Whats the use the gunman replied.
 On the threshold of the mission the two friends parted-Lewis to follow the high road that ended beyond the little green door in the death house. Ellis to tread his way through the dim cloisters of churches, the narrow aisles of prison chapels and across the uneven floors of missions in the slums.
 He is q singing evangelist today, 8 friend Of churchmen and of bishops ! He comes back to Chinatown every ] year to celebrate the night when he and Whitey Lewis parted, and to try to reach down q hand to help some crim- inal who stalks forth from the shadows of the lower East Side.
