MUNITION PLANT RULES
NO RESPECTER OF KINGS

London, March 3.-King George
left his spurs, gold cigarette case, ci-
garettes and matches outside a mu-
nitions plant during a recent inspec-
ton as a precautiOn against every
thing that might cause an explosion
This example of the monarch was
cited during the prosecution of n
number of munitions workers for
carrying smoking materials into a
plant where explosives were made.
In calling attention to the fact that
the workmen had endangered the
lives of 1000 others in the plant,
the Prosecuting Attorney referred to
King Georges act. His Majesty"
he added, did it cheerlully and
willingly, and if our monarch did it,
surely the men working there might
follow his example by complying with
the regulations made for their own
safety"
Prison sentences of a month were
meted out to the offenders.

GERMANS CRITICISED
FOR GETTING CAUGHT
FOREIGN PAPERS ACCUSE TEU-
TON GOVERNMENT OF POLIT-
ICAL STUPIDITY.

Berne, Switzerland, March AL
though most of the German language
newspapers in Switzerland thus far
print without comment the thinner
mann note, as made public through
the revelations from Washington of
the German plot to involve Mexico
and Japan against the United States,
the Nachrichten (BaseD upbraids
Germany for Having talked high
morality and acted in an exactly op-
posite way"
Something terribly fatal has hap
pened to the German Foreign Office
says the paper, which then lectures
Germany on "the folly of getting
caught" and continues:
1.-THE German Foreign Office isn't
any more Maohlavellian than other
diplomatic groups; so one does not
need to look at thing from a moral
standpoint. More important than the
ethical side will be the political con-
sequences.
above all things, German-Ameri-
cans have been terribly compromised
by their old fatherland. They have
in their propaganda always been able
to point out that the Entente has
been letting loose the colored people
of the world against the whites, and
now Germany, in a trice, is willing
to goad the Mexican bands and the
lcgions of Japan against the United
States. Henceforth there will be no
more pro-German propaganda in
America"
With reference to the manner in
which Secretary .Zimmermann hoped
to reach the Mexican President, the
Nachrichten says: "He should have
been able TO spare at least one sub
marine and send an emissary in it to
Mexico to make the proposition
verbally. When one does such things
one never lets oneself get caught"
The paper emphasizes how telling
an answer the note is to Won Beth
mannHollweg' latest speech, in
which the Imperial chancellor de-
clared he could not understand why
the United States had broken off
diplomatic relations $50 brusquely"
and openly accuses DR.. Zimmerman
mot only of political stupidity but of
moral laxity as well, in that while he
was accusing the Entente of seeking
conquest, he was proposing that
Mexico should conquer American
territory"
Further, it adds, while he said,
Every means that can shorten the
war in the most humane way he was
trying to start a monster Asiatic-
American conflict

Hello. - - - Is
missing" The lieutenant jots down a
Z few words, the description is flashed
to every detective headquarters, and
| the search for another missing per-
son" is on.
Ruth Cruger, pretty high school
girl, is now being sought by the po-
lice. Leaving her home. happy and
contented, she was swallowed up in
the swirl of the great city and no
, clues to her whereabouts have been
unearthed. Because her family is of
prominence and because of her faith
er's insistence the case has been wide
ly discussed and given much public
ity but the case of Ruth Cruger is
only one of hundreds.
Every year there are $500 missing
persons in New York, according to
police estimates. Most of the miss
ing persons are girls, pretty, happy
girls, youthful and of good home
training. They are swallowed in the
highways and byways of the NAM
moth city; most OF them never re-
turn. and the public hears of the dis
appearance of but very few.
Ruth Cruger left her home TO have
her skates sharpened. She has never
returned, and hundreds of dollars
have been spent in an unavailing
search for her.
Dorothy Arnold went shopping on
Fifth avenue one afternoon in 1910.
No one saw her leave a certain shop
she entered and the four corners of
the globe have been searched for
her. They still seek her.
Ruth Wheeler needed a job and
she answered an advertisement. Her
battered little body was found days
later and ne'er-do-well, Wolter, was
later put to death for her MUIR
der.
The hacked up body of Anna Au-
muller was found in the river. Hun
dreds of anxious mothers and faith
ers viewed her body. Her slayer was
also executed.
These are but few OF the hun
dreds OF missing. Why missing?
Police answer-white slavery, lack
of courage to face disgrace, failure
at business, family troubles, broken
faith, disappointed love. wanderlust
and the lure of adventure.
Do they come back? Police say of
the $500 or more who disappear
each year perhaps little more than
half return or are found. The other
half? They seem to vanish.
The telephone bell of the lieuten-
ants desk at police headquarters
buzzes-another addition to the hun
dreds OF missing.

the discovery by the drug clerk
has resulted in adoption by Great
Britain OF a new form of rifle shell
which sets q Zeppelin aiire as soon
as it strikes.
For this achievement, Alec Corr.
the young Irish drug clerk. has been
appointed to 0,000-a-year COM
mission with the government.
Corr was a poor Belfast boy, grad
uate of an Irish school and appren-
ticed TO a pharmacist.
His hobby was practical chemistry
and his room at home was a labora-
tory Uttered with all kinds OF chemi-
calls and apparatus.
In this little room Corr made the
discovery which has reFolutionized
aerial warfare.
Accident Starts Fire.
The boy had read of the failure of
anti-aircraft guns to bring down Zeps
flying two miles high. Specially
manufactured bullets had pierced the
vast envelopes but had failed to de-
stroy the great gas bags. Something
more destructive was wanted.
One day Corr was working in his
laboratory when draft between the
door and window blew over beaker
containing a chemical which gave off
q strong vapor.
Instantly the gas-laden draft set
fire to the window curtain. The boy
inventor saw and understood. BY
a fortunate accident Corr had solved
the problem of destroying Zeppelins.
