GERMAN SOCIALISTS LACK
COURAGE TO START REVOLT

THE HAGUE. Dec 2O.-A Hun re
volt slated for November 4. which
failed through lack OF courage on the
part OF the Socialists, was revealed
by George Ledebour in a speech to
the soldiers and workers congress.
Ledebour told how the revolution
was planned in 1896 and assumed def
mite shape in 1916 to prepare for 1918.
The authorities themselves helped by
summoning everyone known as an In
dependent Socialist 20 the colors, by
which action regiments became revo-
lutionaries.
According to the speaker, Novem-
Der OF this year was set as the date
OF the revolution, but even Liebknecht
himself did not have the courage to
call It into being. Ledebour's attack
on Premier Ebert caused wild con-

I'VE started again early next morn

We lost men heavily. I lay with two

I'VE finally got out by jumping
from one shell hole to another. These
shell holes vary in size from tiny zones

twenty men. Sometimes a shell lands

ARMY REGENERATION CAMP TO BE
READY FOR DISABLED SOLDIERS OCT. |
Work Continues Another Unit Will Eventually Have
Beds; Denver Union Labor Has Made Splendid Record
Pushing Construction and Is Complimented by Major
Cameron in Charge for the Government.

Denver labor has made good with
the government On October /. thirty
of the forty-six buildings now under
construction at the great permanent
recuperation army camp, officially des-
ignated as United States Hospital No.
21, will be turned over, completed, to
Surgeon General William c. Gorgas,
ready to receive sick and wounded SOL
diers, ready to be made whole again
and around the most wholesome sur
roundings and health-giving climate to
be found anywhere.

magic; not the old one of lamp-rub-
bing, but the modern magic Of eff
cient labor properly directed. Since
June 1. when the plans were made and
the actual work begun, 1900 men
skilled in the trades and doing their
best, directed by Major w. J. Gamer
on, constructing quartermaster, have
made this big dream Of the United
States government reality.
In this great hospital all that med
ical science and nursing and comfort
can do for the men who come back
broken will be done. And not only
this. but work has been started on
that part of the camp which is to be
devoted to vocational training-the re-
construction and rehabilitation Of the
crippled soldier, who, having lost hand
or arm or leg. must be equipped with

Infirmary Is Completed.
Chief among the buildings ready
to receive patients is the main in
firmary, where the bed-ridden men
will be housed. This huge building
is almost quarter of mile long,
and is equipped with every modern
hospital convenience. The maximum
of sunlight and air has been provided

and in a series of porches along one
side of the building. There are in

to X-ray rooms.

tho confined to their beds. One side
of the buildings is screened and
equipped with canvasses which can
be manipulated from the patients
bed. The long stretch of the ward is
broken by partial partitions which
furnish something of privacy.
The mess is under the charge of
Rene Lucien Brierre, three
years soldier of France, and before
that he was steward of the Wander
bilt hotel The equipment of the gen.
eral mess and kitchen shows that no
thought nor expense has been spared.
There are giant ranges, n succession
of huge refrigerators, coffee urns
large enough to furnish an army with
heartening drink. The walls of the
enormous dining room are of warm
yellow. which catches and holds the
light, and radiates cheer. Five messes
have been provided for; the private
patients, the officer patients, the pri-
vate staff, the officer staff and the
nurses.
Officers Quarters Prepared.
Work on the officers quarters is
now done, tho delayed for a while for
the more important work which must
be done to make ready for the COM
ing Of the patients; everything has
given way to that.
Before the arrival of the patients a
staff of physicians and nurses will
be installed. United States hospital
No. 21, while not yet the largest of
the hospitals being erected by the
government, is the best. It is the
only one which is made of brick, and

- IT'S AWFUL BLOW TO LABOR"

The government has issued orders
providing that brewing operations of
all kinds shall cease December l and
that no further unmalted grains for
brewing purposes be purchased from
this date" So that will be the be-
ginning of the end of beer in America,

could happen in America two years
ago? Myi what a sad blow that will

also the only one which has come
within the appropriation. Major Cam
eron, before he was called by the
government to become constructing
quartermaster, had to his credit the
planning and erection of many large
school buildings and hospitals.
In speaking of his work here, Major
Cameron said: "The first plan was
for a hospital of 1000 beds. Later
came the authorization for an addi-
tional 1000. That means, that,
crowded for space, we may put in
1000 beds. So many patients would
necessitate one-third their number in
attendance, which would bring our
little city here up to a population Of
$500. And there is every probability
that the hospital will be expanded
until it becomes of 5000 beds. Work
has already begun on the second unit,
which consists of nineteen ward build
ings, two officers wards. one trade
school and three shops"

Tire & Rubber Co, Ralston, Neb,
The building Of the manufacturing
company was completed last October,
but owing to the difficulty in secur-

TO start production until now. he
company is capitalized at $S5o,00O
and ground was broken for the build
ings Is months ago.
The machinery used i'll making
Crown cord castings and Crown III
ner tubes is the best and latest type
on the market and no expense will
be spared in making a quality tire
which will stand the test with the
best tires made.
But one type OF casing. known as
the "Crown Cord" will be manufac
tured. The construction Of this tire
was conceived by DR.. Henry A.
Reichenbach, president and founder
OF the company, and is patterned
after the muscles Of the wahs OF the
abdomen, which, by the way, are the
strongest muscles OF the body.
Planned for Years.
DR.. Reichenbach, who for Is years
WAS actively engaged in the practice
OF medicine in Council Bluffs, has
planned for eight years upon erect
ing tire manufacturing factory in
Omaha. He believes Omaha is log
ical place to manufacture tires and
his efforts have resulted in manu-
