Another, Famed by German Hot
Air, Declares Writer.

The Spain of today Is not the Spain
Of your tradition or your Imagination.
It is remote from being the colorful
and romantic domain which was once
the handspring of great adventure and
the Inspiration of poet and painter.
The glOries of velasquez and Ger
vantes have not been revived In our
day. writes Isaac F. Marcosson in the
Saturday Evening Post
Sh. presents the spectacle of sad
contrast with departed splendor
Once a treasure house Of art and
wealth. the haven of mighty armadas,
the nerve center of far-reaching pow
er on land and sea. she finds herself
rent with disorder and a tool for Ger.
manic conspiracy.
She has no twentieth century Cortes
to recreate her one-time world vision !;
she lacks a contemporary CASTELAR, to
win the multitude with the magic Of
bis eloquence or to guide her ship Of
state with steady hand through the
perilous waters of uncertainty. There
Ii not even an up-to-date Don Quixote
to tilt at the windmills of discomfort
famed by Teutonic hot air!
Life with her is still one plot after
another. To a degree greater than ex-
listed In the Russia that was. she is
like national bomb factory. Spain
always has a pretender In her midst.
Worst Of all. the ruling classes-that
Is. the classes that rule today-are
hand in glove with a vast. close-knit
and effective German propaganda that.
aiming at the root Of Hispanic econo-
mic independence. is subtly reaching
out to influence tbo whole world that
thinks works. buys and sells in Span

Madame Suzuki is reported to be
the richest woman in Japan. She is at
the head Of Suzuki 4 Co.. which is re-
ported to have coined u few hundred
million yen since the beginning of the
world war.
Madam Suzuki is the daughter of n
modest stockbroker in the city of
Osaka. says Adachi Kinnosuke, in Les
He's. She married Mr.. Suzuki when
he was petty merchant. When he
died. however. he left what was cc0-
sidered quite fortune In Japan in
those days. The present prime min
lister of hers. Kaneko. was then in
charge of the business. kaneko spec
ulated and lost; the net loss amount
ed to a good many thousand yen more
than the entire fortune which his late
master had left to his widow and chill
dren. Kaneko actually had his foot
on crossbar- of bridge railing over
the Yodo river in Osaka, ready to

iy enough. "and that Is easy enough.
But my dying now would not help the
widow and her children"
"Very WELL" she said. And that Is
all she said. She did not ask him
how. why. nothing. She took
her children and went back to her
home.
Her premier lives today like a mend

New York, Nov. 2l.-Unless som,
unforeseen military reason develop,
for holding the Yanks in Europe, al

in France can be returned to tbs
United States by midsummer of next
year, according to Chairman e. N.
Hurley of the shipping board in an
interview in the New York Times, Mr..

fore he and Herbert C. Hoover. fed
eral food administrator, sailed from
New York last week on the Olympic

problems created by peace.
Mr.. Hurley said that the American
soldiers can be shipped home at the
rate OF 100000 or more per month,
or in the same proportion as they
were hurried to France in answer 20
the S. 0. S. calls of our Allies.

freight ships, idle in port at Ham
burg, Bremen, Trieste and Fiume for
more than four years, according to

WHOSE Is THE LIABILITY?

A suit for twenty thousand dollars
has been brought against telegraph
company by New Jersey young lady
This suit will be watched with great
interest when 1t comes up for trial
The charge is that because OF the dc
layed delivery Of telegram sent to
her to come to camp, by her flance
and be married to him before he lef:
, for oversee. she makes the claim that
through this delay she has lost the
opportunity to gain the name OF the
wife OF an American soldier. And
here, at this juncture, enters a new
factor, for the government has now
taken over the control of the tele
graph companies. Does that transfer
the liability for the hardness in de-
livery to the government? Can the
government be sued and, If so. can
the United States fall back on the
conditions in the fine print which has
limits to liability for loss through
failure to deliver as to the cos: of the
message?. Last Of all, will this young
lady, who has lost husband through
this delay, be altogether content to
abide by the decision which may give
her, instead Of the twenty thousand,
IS cents, plus cents, for the war
tax and that total must, however ex-
press exactly her valuation OF this
telegraph company?
Yours, w q n
