Their Betrayal Of Russia for German

Washington.-That Nicolnl Lenins

Secured In Russa by Edgar @. Sis

show how the German government
through Its Imperial bank paid Its gold
to Lenine. Trotzky, and their imme-

proofs that Germany had perfected her
plans for war Of world conquest long
before the assassinotlons at Sarajevo,
which conveniently furnished her pre-

\ California boy-Evans by name
with the American cxpeditionary
forces in France, has recently writ
ten a letter to his parents in San Ber-
nardinO. in which hGI tells of meeting
Cen Foch at close range in France.
Evans had gone into an old church
TO have a, look at it, and as he stood
there with barred head satisfying his
respectful curiosity, a gray man with
the eagles OF a general on the collar
of his shabby uniform, also entered
the church.
Only one orderly accompanied the
quiet, gray man No glittering staff
Of officers, no encourage Of gold laced
aids with with him; nobody but just
the orderly.
Evans paid small attention, at first
to the gray man. but was curious to
see him kneel in the church, praying
The minutes passed until full three
quarters Of an hour had gone by
before the gray man arose from his
knees.
Then Evans followed him down the
street and was surprised to see SOL
diers salute this man in great eX-
citem emit and women and children
stopping in their tracks with awe
struck faces as he passed.
1t was Foch. And now Evans of
San Bernardino counts the experience
as the greatest in his life.
During that three-quarters of al
hour that the generaissimo of all the
allied armies was on his knees in
humble supplication in that quiet
church, 10000 guns were roaring at
his word on hundred hills that
rocked with death
Millions of armed men crOuched in
trenches or rushed across blood
drenched earth at his command: gen
erals and field marshals, artillery,
cavalry, engineers. tanks, fought and
wrought across the map of Europe
absolutely as he commanded them to
do, and in no other manner. as he
went into that little church to pray.
Nor was it an unusual thing for
Gen. Foch to do. There Is no day
that he does not do the same thing
if there be a church that he can
reach. He never fails to spend an
hour on his knees every morning that
he awakes from sleep, and every
night 1t is the same.

PRESIDENT WATCHES
FAKE WAR ANTICS
Destroyer Shows How to RepeI
Submarine Attack
IN Board u. s. s. George Washing

On Board u. S. s. George Washing
ton, Monday. Dec. 8, 6 p. NJ, (By
Wireless to the Associated Press )
President Wilson stood on the bridge
Of the George Washington this aft
ernoon and saw a United States de-
stroyer stage a thrilling demonstration
of the work Of repulsing a submarine
attack.
A touch of realism was given by the
drill of the men on board the liner
and the conveying ships. The great
liner was gliding through the tropi-
cal waters like a chip on duck pond
when bugles and alarm bells called
the men to battle stations. President
Wilson was taken to the bridge by
Captain McCauley so that he might
get a better view Of the demonStra-
ton.
a destroyer which had been lag
ging far astern suddenly Ieaped for
ward her tunnels belching smoke and
white spray dashing from her bow as
she tore through the water at a clip
of 80 knots an hour AS the destroy
er came abeam of the liner, depth
bonn bs were dropped and great gey-
sers were thrown high into the air
as the warship zig Jagged its way
through the waters beneath which
was supposed to Turk the enemy sub
marine Each explosion was distinct
ly felt on board the George Washing
ton. The conclusions sounded like
heavy blows being struck against the
side of the vessel
President Wilson was most inter
ested in the demonstration and asked
questions about it, going into the
most minute detail.
The George Washington will pass
into the Azores tomorrow morning
and will turn northward on the last
leg Of the voyage. There will be no
stop at the Azores.

AN OPEN CONFERENCE.

Worshippers of precedent received
genuine shock today on learning
that president Wilson's disposition
is in favor of entirely public pro-
ceedings'' at the peace conference In
France. Is 1t possible that this young
giant from the western world is to
upset all the time honored customs
not only of his own country but also
OF other lands? Publicity for peace
conferences is an idea that must
rope where secret diplomacy is the
rock on which alliances have always
been contaminated. It almost passes
belief that such suggestion will be
followed. If the delegates to the con-
ference concur in such a view it can
be said without fear of contradiction
that the title of the President of the
United States as champion of real
democracy is unassailable.
For several months a propaganda
has been carried on in this country to
convince the people that President
Wilson prefers to work in the dark
and to prevent the light of publicity
from beaming on his actions We
await with bated breaths the pro-
nouncement Of his critics on his pro-
posal for a wide open peace confer
ence with the press representatives
having every facility to report GER
tain business
1t is concluded from the Presidents
attitude that if George Greed ever in
tended to, act as censor of news COM
ing to this country he has been check
mated

NO VISIT TO GERMANY.

Gcrmany's belief that y President
Wilson would be lcnient in dealing
with the defeated enemy is exploded
by today's announcement that the
President Will under no circumstances
visit Hunland.
In his determination President
Wilson has the support Of his own
country In addition, his refusal is a
clever diplomatic move. 1t is report
ed that a minority public opinion in
England and France were of the i'm
preston that the President favored
leniency toward the enemy. This be-
lief absurd as it might be, weak
ened his case in Allied lands. His dec
laration that he will not visit Ger
many, even if an invitation is re-
ceived, will have wholesome effect
in the countries with which we are
associated in the war.

1t is estimated that about 10000

About $4,000 have been actually

the bigness of the problem con-
fronting the conference over which
DR.. Francis D. Paterson is to pre-

1t is a, meeting of Industrial physi-
clans and surgeons, and the special
theme is the physical reconstruction
and industrial reha billtation of those

mishap Incident to labor.
Harry Mackcy will talk about the

Bliss Company Warned Against MAX

cign Nations.

Washington, Dec. l0.--Injunctions
obtained by the government restrain
ing the E. W. Bliss company of
Brooklyn, n. Y, from manufacturing,
except for the United States, tOrpe-
does containing improvements per-
fected by naval officers were made
permanent, with notifications, by the
supreme court
The proceedings were brought at
the instance of the navy departm ent,
which alleged that, despite an agree
ment made in 1905 and subsequent
contracts specifying that certain inn
provements were not to be divulged.
the company III 1913 gave notice of
it's intention to communicate methods
Of construction and operation of the
existing type of torpedo to Whitehead
s. Co., British manufacturers.
The Bliss company contended the
efficiency and value of the torpedoes
were not due to the improvements
claimed by the government and that
these features had been used prior to
the time the navy department
claimed they were perfected.

NAVY GROWS FROM
$4,000 TO 100000
Number Of Boats Increased From
t76 to 1900

Washington Dec. 10.-War time
Increase of the naval personnel from
$4,000 to nearly 100000 to man 1900
vessels instead of 176, is described in
the annual report of Rear-Admiral
Leigh G. Palmer, chief Of the bureau
of navigation, made public yesterday.
Every one of the ships in comm ission,
from battleships to cargo-carriers,
admiral Palmer says, has complete
compliments Of officers and men with
excess personnel to provide for train
ing new drafts. The navy also pro-
Vided armed guard and radio crews

the shipping boards merchant fleet
estimated to comprise 1924 vessels Try
December, 1919. To accomplish this
the permanent training facilities have
been expanded so as to accomm odate
ITO, 900 men at once. These include
the Great Lakes station with a ca
pacity of 1000, Newport and Hamp-
ton Roads 5000 each, and Pelham
Bay, N. Y, 900. Hundreds of ships
are used as floating schools, each be-

to be taught the rudiments Of sea-
manship, and IA institutions are con-
Quoting regular courses in the train
ing Of officers
Notwithstanding the enormous ex-
pansion of the personnel" the report
says, the various units of the navy
have reached a higher state of battle
efficiency than ever before"
Enlistment statistics show that
every state in the union contributed
to the growth of the navy, such states
as Montana and Nevada each sending
more than 1900 men. There were
2,2o3 assertions during the year, but
the percentage of desertions dropped
from 1.43 to so.
Admiral Palmer reports that.
roughly, 412, 900 Of the $4,000 men
in the navy are native born, and
$4,000 are naturalized citizens. New
York alone furnished 80 per cent. of
the native born.

PEOPLES CHRISTMAS TREE.

For centuries the Christmas tree
has been regarded as a symbol of
mans emancipation from sin. Those
Of the Christian faith are reminded,
by seeing it, of the worlds greatest
gift-the Redeemer. 1t breathes the
spirit of Christmastide and keeps ever
green the memory Of Him who died
on the cross that the gates of Heaven
might be opened.
Following the custom of other
years, New Britain is to have a COM
munity Christmas tree--the Peoples
treat Central Park during the ap-
preaching Christmas season and the
public is invited to contribute toward
the fund necessary for it's erection,
decoration, and maintenance. Stran-
gers in this city have been deeply i'm
pressed by our public trees and by
the exercises held around their fra
grant and glistening branches. 1t is a
custom we can i'll afford to abandon
and from which we can gain much in
spiration. Contributions for the tree
may be left at or sent to the Herald
office and they will be acknowledged
in print and given to the proper au-
thorities

Chairman Gary of the United
States Steel Corporation seized the
bull by the horns yesterday at
meeting of iron and steel men when
he suggested that maximum prices be
reduced and that present wage
ton would reverse the procedure of
other times, when it was customary
first to reduce wages and to follow
with a drop in prices.
Such q radical departure from ira
dition may not be approved by the
majority OF steel manufacturers but
on the whole it seems to be a desir-
able course because of the great
prosperity which Judge Gary believes
the trade is about to experience. He
declares that the next five years will
be the most progressive, prosperous
and successful in the history of this
country and the result will astonish
even the most optimistic. In view of
this prediction, the manufacturers
can well afford to make sacrifices
and they cannot afford to antagonize
labor.
Since the conclusion of hosti1ities,
the country has been preparing for
disagreements between employers and
employees. Samuel Gompers and
other labor leaders had declared that
the worlxingman would not accept
reduction in wages or an increase in
working hours. Little has been said
by the representatives of capital but
it was understood they were equally
as determined as labor in their opin-
ions as to what must happen Judge
Gary's announcement sets at rest tenn
porarily any fear of a general clash
between the moneyed interests and
the workers and. points the way for
others who desire to prevent friction.
Present wages are reasonable I'M
less and until the costs of living are
reduced" Judge Gary says. That is
the meat of the whole situation and
the country will sigh with relief at it's
acknowledgment by one of the great
est captains Of industry.

SAYS POPE SHOULD
BE REPRESENTED
Catholic Leader Says Pope Benedict
Is Entitled to Voice In
Conference

New York, Dec. 10.-Pope Beae-
dict XIV. should have .. voice in guar
anteeing permanent peace, accord
ing to Mgr. Sigourney w. Fay of
Washington, D. c., who delivered O.
lecture yesterday in Carnegie hall be-
fore the League for Political Educa-
ton. His subject was The Pope in
Relation to Permanent Peace"
Mgr. Fay said the Pope was emit
tied to representation in the peace
conference as head OF the Roman
Catholic church, the largest Christion
body, and as the greatest Christian
preacher. He said the Pope had three
points in mind: The league of aa-
tons; disarmament Of nations to such
g. point that no one would dare to
start war, and a court OF information
al appeals with coercive power. With
these provisions, he said, the world
would continue to enjoy the blessings
Of peace.
Mgr Fay spoke as a member of the
POntiff's family, but did not speak for
him. He explained that unless he
directly quoted the Pope the senti-
melts he expressed must be consider
cd as personal to himself.
He said that in the opinion of the
Pope expressed to him last February,
the two greatest ecclesiasts in the
world are Cardinal Gibbons and Car
dinal MERCER.
He declared the Pope had done as
much, if not more, than any one man
to relieve the suffering in Belgium.
Mgr. Fay went abroad as a member
of the American Red Cross and as a
representative of Cardinal Gibbons.
Through Cardinal Gasparri, the Pa
pal secretary of state, he had an au-
dience with the Pontiff.

DRIVE THEM OUT OF BUSINESS

Prof1teering in dead bodies is a
grewsome subject yet it has been
learned that Waterbury funeral direc-
tors increased their price $50 per
case during the Spanish influenza cpl
demic. Heretofore, the Waterbury
underwriters had received s35 for the
burial of homeless and friendless per-
sons but an examination of bills ten
dered to the health board reveals the
fact that the price was increased to
$50 while business was rushing.
Waterbury should find means to bar
from further business activity those
men who raised their charges when
their services were in such demand
and when the health of the CITY re-
quired them to give immediate atten-
ton to all calls. Those guilty Of
such practices are related, in spirit at
least to the war lords who declared
that the invasion Of Belgium was a
