pOTTERIES RUN OUT
OF FUEL AND CLAY

TRENTON, Nov. 13.-The pottery indus
Try of Trenton is seriously menaced by
shortage of fuel and certain kinds of i'm
norted clay necessary to the production of
a satisfactory body in sanitary and gem
oral ware. These factors. coupled with
labor differences which have resulted III
virtually closing several plants, have re-
suited in m ,torally decreasing the output
of about forty of the plants in this city,
although electrical and specially potterics
contiNe to run overtime,
The greatest handicap to the business
is the shortage of English ball clay, which
Is now almost unobtainable and for which
no satisfactory substitute has been dis
covered. The use Of Florida clay, at
first thought to be an available substitute,
has proved disastrous in several plants,
one Of the largest sanitary establishments
in the city, having sust lincd "a loss of
$4,000 week for two consecutive weeks
because Of the poor body resulting from
the use of the Florida clay aud the sulphur
fumes produced by an inferior grade of
coal which the company was compelled to
use.

The Open Secret Of
Cosmopolitan Success
What is the Cosmopolitan policy?
What is the secret Of its hold upon the American
people?
What magic wand does it wave that casts spell
over more than million Americans on the tenth of
every month?
Be patient while try to tell you-in the round
about way made necessary by so big question.
There is apex of achievement in every field of
human endeavor.
Each field has it's towering figure, dwarfng the
rest to Llllputian proportions
But in the arts that educate and entertain there
is supremacy even more intense than this
The genius is infinitely more than the imperative
master of his domain.
He is a monopolist of his art-the keeper of a
treasure house which no key but his unlock.
Who could compete with Whitcomb Riley in
loos1ng the laughter and tears of little children?
Who would even dare to hold the thought of
rvaing the golden-hearted Stevenson?
There you have it!
In those two last sentences is the open secret of
Cosmopolitan success.
To bind to itself the luminous figure of everv man
woman in the world who has attained the apex of
artistic achievement-thats the Cosmopolitan policy
To gather them all together within its covers and
hold them there, with no thought of the cost
The singers and the poets and the philosophers
the dreamers and the doers-who have reached the
mountain height
That goodly company of spirits whom all
the world recognizes for their rarity.
Those few artists VINO utter for us the things
we feel and to know, but cannot speak
Who can interpret life for us in language
comprehend.
Who make laugh, weep, stir to the
depths of our beng-who can bring welcome relief
and relaxation from the extra strain and the extra
burden of the es-of these the Cosmopolitan strives
to establish a complete and honorable monopoly
That is why than million of us, without
urge asking, celebrate each tenth of the month
great American holiday.

DR.. Butler Refuses

Answers Demand for Dis

Pacihst, by Declaring
Speech Free

DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler, presi-
dent of Columbia University, in MAX

ing the dismissal of Professor David
S. Muzzey for the extreme pacifism OF
the views he expressed in Lincoin's
Birthday address, declared that mem
bers of Columbia's faculty had the
privilege of expressing their views UNI
muzzled.
The statements attributed to Pro-
lessor Muzzey to which the letter re-
ferred were:
Before going to war | would wait
until they had sunk seven ships. Yes,
! would wait until they had sunk sew
enty times seven ships, and then |
wouldn't go to war"
"They can't insult the American peo-
pie The American people are the only
ones who can insult themselves"
These sentiments were reported in
newspapers as having been made by
Professor MuzZey at the Church Of the
Messiah.

such expressed convictions instructing
and molding the characters OF our
young men is not calculated to produce
brave, loyal citizens, but rather the OPP
posite. 1t is my earnest hope that his
services may be dispensed with"
DR.. Butler replied that he had not
seen the utterance referred TO, but
that Professor Muzzey was at liberty,
"as a citizen and as an academic off,
GER" to hold and express conscientious
views on current topics.

Butler wrote, "thst freedom involves

Hiss Germans
Plea for Peace
At Big Dinner
Insurance Men in Uproar
as Abeles Opposes Stand
ing by the President

Henry Abeles, OF the Germania Lie
Insurance Company. threw into turmoil
1000 members and guests at the an
nual banquet Of the Life Underwriters
Association at the Hotel Astor last
night Which, ne arose and objected in
strong German accents to the passage
Of a resolution pledging support to the
President in the event of war.
A storm Of cries, catcalls and Kisses
broke as Abeles shouted out pacitist
plea for a peaceful resolution instead
of a militant one. President Lawrence
Priddy pounded his gavel vainly for
order.
Ignoring angry cries of "Shut up!'
and "Sit down." Abeles continued to
shout above the uproar. Even from the
balconies. where three hundred per-
sons, mostly women in evening dress,
were sitting, came a storm of Misses
that made Abeles's words almost indis-
tinguishable.
1--WE don't want war;" he cried. 1--WE
want peace! / object to this resolu-
tionl"
Vote IS Unanimous
At last Abeles finished and sat down.
When President Priddy called for a
vote on the resolution it was passed
unanimously amid storm of vocifer-
Gus "ayes." Abeles did not raise his
voice against it again. He explained
later that he objected not to pledging
support to the President, but TO the
militant tone of the resolution.
The resolution pledged 70 the Presi-
dent that the $4,000 life insurance
agents in the United States would
"stand shoulder to shoulder" with him
in "upholding the n0nor of the flag,
the protection of American citizens and
the principles of civilization, which
at this hour become the most sacred
duty and purpose OF every real Ameri-
can
Abeles has figured publicly before in
German-American political activities in
New York. He is president of the
United Turner Societies of New York
and was host at a meeting in Terrace
Garden last fall when Senator William
J. Stone sought to gain the German
vote for President Wilson.
On that occasion Abeles gave out
a speech which he said Senator Stone
had made. 1t was later repudiated By
others who were at the meeting.

British Directed Ruin
Nearly one hundred Americans were
er,nloved in the oil works. They de-
parted at once, and many OF them nave
reached the United States by way OF
Russia. They said that an Allied COM
mission under Major John Grlifn, an
engineer of the British army, was in
immediate charge of the work OF de-
Struction. c.I
Cable dispatches saying that Stand
ard Oil employees had assisted In the
ruin were officially denied by the com
pany here. Some of the workers VINO
returned said that the commands were
carried out so thoroughly that two
years would be required TO restore the
fields to normal.
The Standard Oil Company refrained
from indicating what government IL
considered responsible for the loss
Nor was there any hint of why the an
nouncement was made at this time. II
is known, however, that the company
has carried on an informal investlga-
ton through the State Department.
Will Ask Official Inquiry
II is assumed in some quarters,
therefore. that sufficient information
has been gathered by the company to
Law its evidence before the State De-
partment and ask an official investlga-
ton.
The policy of the Administration has
been to defer action until the end oil
the war. There is no reason to believe
that an exception will be made in the
case Of the Standard Oil.
The Dutch Shell Company, whose
property had suffered in many parts OF
the world because of the war, sustained
an immense loss in the Rumanian cam
paign, and the Netherlands has inti-
mated that joint action might be taken
by the United States and the Neither
