GIVEN TWO GREAT CROWDS

by his picture of certain prac-
tices of the German military.
Mrs. Walter McNab Miller,
who has studied the economic
situation, and who said that if
the Germans had been as
wasteful as the Americans are,
that Germany would have been
starved into submission three
months after the English
blockade had been established.
She preached the doctrine of
the clean plate; declared we
must sacrifice, and said that
unless we voluntarily gave up
certain foods, we did not de-
serve the name of citizens of a
republic.

several hundred by the time the band
began it's concert, and arrangements
were made to get the speakers to ad-
dress an overflow gathering at the
First Baptist church. The church was
crowded and all three speakers spoke
twice last evening. once at the Grand
and once at the church. Their sacri-
flee in this is most certainly appreciat-
ed by the audience and by every men,
Der of the committee in charge of the

able space in the Grand, stood in the
aisles and packed the stage, and then
there were plenty to fill the Baptist

SIMS AS AN ADMIRAL
American Naval Commander
France To Be Promoted,

Washington, Nov. 27.-Vice Admiral
VIM. S. Sims. commander of Ameri-
can naval forces in Europe since the
United States went to war has been Sc
lected for promotion to the rank of
admiral when a vacancy in the list oc-
ours next month thru the retirement of
Admiral Austin M. knight, command
ing the Atlantic fleet.
Rear Admiral Albert Gleaves, chief
of the convoy service which has guard
ed transports going overseas without
losing an eastbound ship, will be made
vice admiral to fill the vacancy caused
by the advance of Admiral Sims.
Rear Admiral Thomas S. Rodgers
succeeds to command of the Asiatic
fleet, relieving Admiral Knight, who
already has started for home. The law
creating the grades of admiral and
vice admiral contemplates that they
shall be filled by commanders in chief
of fleets and their seconds in COM
mand. This course is followed in peace
times, but the navy still is on a war
footing, permitting deviation from the
regular order. Admiral Rodgers, there
fore retains his rank of rear admiral
upon taking command of the Asiatic
fleet.
Secretary Daniels said that for the
, present the promotion of Admirals
Sims and Gleaves would mean no
{ change in their duties.

A CUT IN ALL EXPENDITURES
Government VIII Get Back to
Peace Basis
In the Expenditure of Funds
for Departments.

Washington, Nov. 27.-Unexpended
war. appropriations must be returned
to the treasury, Chairman Sherley of
the house appropriations committee
announced today. In letter to cabi-
net sofficials and other heads of the
Independent departments, Sherley set
out the determination of congress to
take full command of financial recon-
struction with view to enforcing a
program of peacetime economy.
Executive heads are to be asked to
cooperate toward the program, but
whether or not they comply, they will
be made aware that congress holds the
final authority in money matters.
Developments. expected soon, will
serve as a warning to cabinet officials
and others who spend money:
% That any unexpended war ap-
preparations in the hands of depart
ments will be revoked by congress at
once.
CD That expenditures on contracts
or other war work must stop imme-
d1ately and any excess supplies on
ey returned to the treasury.
1S) That all departmental estimates
for the fiscal year of 1920 must be
recalled by departments and chopped
to the last cent.
While economy talk has flown thick
and fast about congress since the end
of the war, Chairman Swagar Sherley
has taken the first definite action.
Will Reappropriate Funds.
The program Sherley has outlined

London, Nov. 27.-While legal au-
thorities of the British government
have decided that the allies are en-
titled to demand extradition of the
former kaiser, it is learned that Hol-
land Is not yet persuaded on that
right. -
The Dutch government is under
stood to maintain that Wilhelm can
only be extradited by Germany, or, if
his fate is decided at the peace con-
ference, he will then be given up in
accordance with such decision, mas
much as Germany will be represented.
The reason the unwelcome guest is
on their hands, the Dutch say, is only
that Holland is the nearest neutral
point to Spa, from which his flight
began. Otherwise he might have
gone to Scandinavia or Switzerland
Hollands precautions against any
plotting are known to include cor
don of troops around Amerongen cas-
tie. The former emperor is not per-
mitted to cross the moat. The coun-
try around the castle is low and gen.
orally unattractive.
Wilhelm, it is reported, constantly
displays irritation and impatience
while the Dutch mostly are frankly
contemptuous because he failed to
face the music.
The former crown princes abode
| is on a barren island where the only
habitation is the rector's house. where
Frederick Wilhelm is quartered. The
Dutch say the allies would be unable
to provide more unpleasant prison
