GREAT POWER IDEA

H. G. Wells Says Foreign Of

TOO sEcRETIvE FOR GOOD

LONDON, October 81 Correspond
ence of the Associated Press).-'"The
great power idea," as represented by
foreign Offices must be done away
With If the proposed league of ma
.,....tions is to be a success. H. G. Wells
Tithe novelist and publicist, told large
ss.audience at the American officers

~ A league of nations, he said, was in
Esprit of nationality. and it was not
...,,opposed even to what Americans
would call the liking business" But
1.-THE great power idea would have to
ribe exercised if mankind was not to
ago down in bloodshed and ruin.
~ The great power idea, he explained,
uwas that each state was in conflict
with all other states, and it abso-
""autely opposed the idea of the COM

~ :. More Active in Berlin.
- TT was only little more active in
Berlin" he asserted, than in the
"other capitals of Europe. Every for

has been organized to carry out the
nEreat power dreams.

A league Of nations would have to
substitute, he said, some sort of CEN

have to be pooled and represent the

MOTOR TRUCK CREDITED
WITH WINNING THE WAR
Earl Curzon Says Allies "Floated
to Victory on q Wave
of OIL"

LONDON. Thursday, NovembeE21.-
Earl Curzon, member Of the British
war cabinet, presided tonight at a
dinner given by the British govern
ment to the delegates to the inter-
allied petroleum conference. In
toasting the French. American and
italian delegates, Earl Curzon de-
clared that the allied cause had been
'foated to victory on a wave of oil. !"
great fleets Of motor trucks the war
could not have been won. In the last
eighteen months the council has dealt
with 10000 tons of oil.
When Situation Was Critical.
In December, 1916. Earl Curzon said.
the oil situation was critical. Stocks
were so depleted that the British fleet
was obliged to restrict operations. At
the time when tank ships were being
sunk in increasing numbers the idea
was conceived of carrying oil in the
double bottoms of ordinary cargo ves-
sells, and one million tons were trans
ported in this manner.
When the armiStice was signed the
stocks of oil in allied countries had
been brought up to point of'absolute
safety.
Achievement Reflects Credit.
This achievement reflected the
greatest credit on the petroleum coun-
Gil and on the great oil companies that
had subordinated their own interests
to the allied cause. The result, Earl
Curzon said, had been one of the
greatest triumphs of the war.
Senator Beranger of France said
that the Germans thought to win be-
cause they owned coal, but the allies
won with oil. 1t was victory of au-
tomobiles over railroads.
The United States by its response to
the needs of the allies, he added. had
rendered a service to France and the
other allies which never would be for
gotten. Lieut.. Commander Burstow re-
piled in behalf of the United States

Proposed to Amend Laws.

The jurist and A. S. Gilbert, principal
attorney for the governor, engaged IN a
lively tilt over the possible action OF
legislature summoned as a result of the
close vote in the gubernatorial contest.
Mr.. Gilbert had declared that n an ex-
animation OF the ballots indicated that
returns showing the election of Alfred
E. Smith, the democratic candidate,
were incorrect, the governors counsel
would advise him to call an extraord-
mary session of the law-making body
before January 1 to amend laws which
permit drawn contest for the
title to the Office.
Under present statutes, he said. a
candidate certified to Office might
oppose for months, and possibly
throughout his entire term, an effort
by legally elected opponent to estab-
lish his right to the governorship.
DO you think it proper" said Justice
Shearn, "for an interested party to
set the machinery of the state in
motion in his own favor? I do not,
like the threat to bring about chaos
in the government of the state by
inducing republican legislature,
summoned by a republican governor,
to legislate in favor of the governor
when he is defeated candidate for

IS
 ENJOYING SELF;
 MADE GETAWAY

Yesterday forenoon while being brought from the detention hospital. at which place he had been doing some work, to the federal jail for his lunch, George Millich made a break for liberty, and up to the present time is at large. Millich was in charge of Guard Tobias Fleischman with two other prisoners, and when they started up town he took the lead. being several feet in advance of the other two prisoners with the guard in the rear At the corner of Tenth and Cushman Millich started across the street instead of turning up town. He was hailed by the guard but continued on in the direction he had chosen to go. An other hail with the request that he come back was ignored and he broke into hard run. Drawing his re- volver. the guard attempted to fire, but something went wrong with the mechanism. By the time he had the weapon fixed the prisoner was sev- eral hundred feet away In an at tempt to stop the escaping prisoner Fleischman fired two shots at him, but he was well out of range. Bid ding the other prisoners, who were trusties, to proceed to the jail, Fleischman went in pursuit The escaping prisoner went through the sawmill premises and up through the wireless reserve. Seeing the fleeing man and observing the pursuing guard, the soldiers there surmised that something was amiss. and at once joined in the pursuit, searching every possible place of concealment in the neighborhood, but without avail.
 Millich was recently convicted at Nenana on the charge of violating the dry law and was fined the sum of $1.000. which fine he was serving out at the federaA jail here.
 Later in the evening the searching party. while in the vicinity of the Buzby farm. came across pair of shoes and some of the wearing ap. parel that was worn by Millich at the time of his escape lying on the bank of the Cinema river Whether the escaping man actually swam the river in his escape or left them lying his pursuers and backtracked to town during the dark of the evening Is a conjecture. However, he will be somewhat lightly clad if com pelled to remain out for the night.

''DOBEY J0E' THE
 NAMEFOR CHAP. LAIN ON BORDER

CAMP KEARNY, San Diego. Calf. Aug. 3O.-Arrival at this cantonmenr of some officers who had been sta. tioned, on the Mexican border when the First Arizona infantry, since be- come the 158th infantry. was there. has led to the circulation here of a story giving Captain George L. Hor- enc. chaplain of that regiment, the nickname of "Dobey Joe"
 The story gives plain indications of the origin of the first half of the name, but whence the Joe" comes is unknown unless it arose from the fact that most chaplains are known as Holy Joe" by some of the less respectful among the men.
 AS the story went. Chaplain Hor- enc was anxious to erect a chapel at the Mexican border station of the regiment. but lacked material. So he persuaded the men, with whom he is prime favorite, to make a quantity of adobe bricks for the chapel. However, the regiment moved to it's new station at this camp be- fore the chapel could be begun.
 A more authoritative version is giv- en by Brigadier General A. M. Tut. hill, who commanded the Arizona regi- ment at that time and now com mands the 79th infantry brigade General Tuthill says he ordered the adobes made-some 28.600 of them for the erection of post exchange building and recreation hall, but that he had planned to give some of them to Captain Horene for a chapel. Or ders for construction of the mud bricks were given just before the then colonel left camp on a brief leave.
 Returning, the colonel found no adobes. He called in ths lieutenant colonel. We had just been in ser vice short time and I was looking for good chance to show 'em all there was somebody on top of that particular ant hill," said the general, relating the affair.
 Very we'll" the regimental com. mander said, the lieutenant colonel, the majors and the company com manders will remain in camp until the adobes are made'
 "I think it was about three days and half before the last mans company finished making adobes," :" said General Tuthill. "I don't know why they hung the story and the nickname on the chaplain, unless it was because didn't keep him in camp to make thes adobes."
