views in regard to moving our time
forward one hour, let us ever keep in
mind that this is war times, and the
good soldier, whether in the trenches

officers. If it has been your Gus
tom to arise at 6 a. m, continue to
do so, for whatever you may con-
slider you have lost in SO doing you
can readily see you gain at night. Let
us all pull together, pull hard and en-

Graft in Russia
M ore Rite Than
Ever Under "Reds''
On Ylc .1ssocjoted p,c..

STOCKHOLM, Sept II (delayed).-
Graft always has been the bane cf Ras-
sian official life and Bolshevik rule has
not been able to cure this evil. On the
contrary, say observers Of the Russian
political situation who have arrived
here from Moscow. the Bolsheviki have
unWlttingly encouraged corruption
among the officials by paying salaries
insufficient to cover bare living ex-
penses. They do that not only to save
money for the depleted national treas
ury, but on the theory that the Bolshc-
WIKI do not merely work for money
but for the love of their ideal.
The chief of an important govern
ment department at Moscow. which
employs several hundred persons, told
me Associated Press that only a few
ohcials and typists performed their
work conscientiously and that the MA
Jorlty smoked cigarettes, drank tea and
talked most Of the time
still worse situation was found at
me Petrograd postofiice when that in
sttutlon, recently was inspected by a
government commission. The chairman
OF the commission in his published re
port said that, although the mail mat
ter handled by the postotfice was ONLY
10 per cent OF the amount of that Of
previous years. the number of en-
ployes had been doubled within the
last year.
They work only three hours day,"
he said, ''as there is no authority to
enforce the slx-hOur law for office en-
ployes. They recognize no superiors
except their own committees"

Woman I telegraph Spy
Is Held ON Warrant

- Wanda kuetingzer, the confessed
German spy, who as a telegraph opcr-
ator stole information from thousands
OF kilograms and delivered it to per
sons whom she thought would convey
II TO Germany, is now being held at
the Waverly House on a Presidential
warrant. She will be interrogated to-
day by Rutus w. Sprague, director Of
the Enemy Alien Bureau, and if her
immediate internment is not ordered
she VIII be turned over to the United
; tatcs Attorney for prosecution in the
Federal courts
so far as the Department of Justice
mas been able TO ascertain the woman
mas not received any funds from the
German Foreign Office. During the first
two years Of the war she worked in
close cooperation with the German EN-
DaSsy statf. She memoriZed the con-
tents of hundreds OF messages weekly
and made reports to the German Con-
sui IN Chicago on what messages the
members of the various Allied purchas-
ing commissions who were in this
country were sending over her wires
The Department of Justice is anx-
lous to discover whether the woman
did part of her work for Captain Won
Papen and Boy-Ed, who directed the
German espionage ring in the United
States during the first two years Of the
war.
Chief De Woody is under the i'm
preston that the woman did not re-
ceive pay for what information she

said he believed her actions were
prompted by her love for the Kaiser
and Germany. Her brother, who lives
IN the West, will be interviewed by
agents of the Department of Justice
to-day.

Cheap Notoriefy
Var, yne's Moflue,
Is Cree['s CHARGE

WASHINGTON, Sept. l2.-Charges
that publicity given to the suppression
of the book 1.-TWO Thousand Questions
and Answers About the War by the
National Security League were "dishon-
est and indecent" and that Professor
Van Tyne of the Security League. in
failing to make public all the facts sur
rounding the suppression, "subordi-
mated his sense Of honor to his weak
ness for little cheap notoriety," were
made to-day IN an open letter to the
league, written by George Creel.
Mr.. Creel's letter reads:
Certain New York papers. under
date of September II. carry articles to
the effect that the National Security
League has forced the suppression OF
a book entitled Two Thousand Ques-
tlons and Answers About the War
terence being drawn that this master
piece of Hun propaganda as your or
ganlzatlon styles it, was being freely
circulated, without criticism of any
KIND, until your own vestigators took
patriotic action.
81 cannot forego a public protest
against the singular dishonesty and
even indccency of this publication.
The book, instead of being without re-
sponsible authorship, bore the imprint
Of the Review Of Reviews"
Mr.. Crcel then quotes letter he
wrote to DR.. Albert Shaw, of "The Re
vew of Reviews on June 80, in which
he said:
"'The last week or so have made
more careful study of the book, and |
must confess to a very definite disturb
ance Of mind. The whole tone of the
book strikes me as being $3.50, for no
where in it can find the Fundamental
truth that Germany was entierlv re
sponslble for this war and that it is q
war OF self-defence upon the part of
the liberal nations of the world. In
connection with atrocities, deporta-
tons, hostages, use of gas, am also
unable to find anything that is in the
nature OF straight-out condemnation
of the Germans'"
. This letter was followed at once bv
seven single spaced typewriter pages
pointing out specific objections. DR.
Shaw replied at once, promising instant
correction and fullest revision. He also
stated that the book was based unon
the accumulation of material secured
IN advance sheets from the well known
British journalist, the son of the late
William I. Stead. and, because OF lis
source the editors had not given it the
necessary searching scrutiny
Il then took up the matter with Mr.
George H. Doran, the publisher. who
with his usual eager patriotism agreed
that the sale of the book should be
stopped until its contents were salts
factory to me. Because there was not
the slightest evidence of any premedi-
tated Qro-Germanlsm IN the matter.
