into shape, and casting is the quickest
known way of making any tool.
TEera ere few steels, however,
which, by casting them, do not be-
come brittle. "Cobaltcrom STEEL as
It is called, nevertheless can be made
in this manner instead of having to
be forged and rolled, two very much
lengthier and more expensive proc
esSes.

RELIEF PLANS I.
FOR EUROPEANS
ARE MATURING
Full Cooperation of Allies on
Question Is Practically
Assured.

Paris, Dec. 20.-Plans for extending
relief to famished Europe,s which
President Wilson regards as the most
immediate pressing question needing
settlement. are rapidly maturing in
such a way as to secure full co-opera-
ton by the Allies. The president
some time ago indicated in a speech
that something should be done
promptly for relieving the liberated
and neutral regions which suffered so
heavily from the war. He nov has
supplemented this by making 1t
known to the Allies that he regards
the relief measures as of extreme i'm
portance but for the stricken popula-
tons and also as a means of holding
back the wave Of discomfort and re-
sentiment sweeping westward in the
train Of the. Boishevist movement.
The relief plans that have matured
since the arrival Of Herbert C.
Hoover, the food administrator, are
understood to have gone before the
supreme war council in London and
to have been referred to a committee
upon which England, France and
exchanges have been going on with
the committee, which is gradually
tending toward agreement. ..s.
AS q great deal Of German tonnage
is lying idle in German ports the use
of this was contemplated, the pas

by the Socialists.

Chicago. Dec. 2o.-Cross examina-
ton Of Adolph Corner, general secre-
tary Of the national Socialist party,
was concluded today at the trial Of
five Socialist leaders charged with
conspiracy to violate the espionage
law.
Germer denied responsibility for
many Of the antl-war activities with
which he is charged by the govern
ment. He denied ever having read
some of the pamphlets and articles
published in the American Socialist
-dnd added thai If he had known what
they contained they would not have
been used. He admitted never hav-
ing purchased Liberty bonds, but said
he contributed to the Red Cross and
other war charities.
Germer expressed the opinion that
the Socialist proclamation and war
program adopted at the st. Louis con-
vention and circulated in several Ian
guages, if taken as a whole, was not
pro-German. He said it was not in
tended that it should embarrass the
government in conduct of the war.
The witness was cross questioned
