The activities OF John Holub, alias
Dolube, for the last four years, are be-
ing investigated by the District Attor-
ney's office following the revelation OF
certain circumstances connected with his

learned that Dolube--as he was gener-
ally knowD-had been a frequent visitor
10 the M!neola aviation field and. at
times. a man fitting his description had
been seen in the uniform OF an aviation

member OF the Mayors Committee on

of German names to the committee for

day letter sent 20 DR.. Shaw On June

there was something wrong with the
book, q Limited edition OF which had
just then appeared.
In his letter Mr.. Creel told Dr. Shaw
that while he Rad glanced through the
proofs before writing the toreword, Il
relied less upon my hasty reading than
upon my absolute faith In YOU
''The last week or So" the letter went
on 10 saw. "I have made more careful
study Of the book and confess to a very
definite disturbance Of mind The whole
tone of the book strikes me as being
$3.50, for nowhere can find :he funda-
mental truth that Germany was entirely
responsible for this war and that il is
a war of self-defence upon the part OF
the liberal nations of the world"
Mr.. Creel asked DR.. Shaw IL a second
edition was printed to take up with him
the matter Of making changes 80 that
this very valuable contribution 10 war
can be given greater effectiveness.

ton and fullest revision" the letter 10
