Hundreds of Pounds of Literature Fuel For
 Bonfire.

Cincinnati, Nov. 19-Members of the American Legion numbering more than 300, led by their officers, de- seconded upon socialist headquarters in this city late last night and threw hundreds of pounds of radical liter a ture into the streets. A bonfire was started and the literature burned No one was in the building when he raid was made.
 Most of the literature burned has been printed for the communist labor party of America. Other pamphlets were issued by the Socialist Publica- ton Society, Brooklyn, and by Liber- ators Headquarters. Cleveland One was a purported reproduction of a letter to the .'American Workingmen from he Socialist Soviet Republic of Russia written by Nil1olai Lenine.

AUTO SCHOOLS
 ARE H0TBEDS
 OF RADICALISnA
Believed Bolsheviki Propa. ganda Spread in This
 Way.

Bridgeport police refused to con firm today the report that an auto mobile school in this city is or has been used as a cloak for the teach ing of radica1ism and Bolshevism among the foreign element of Bridge port.
 It was learned however, that dur ing the course of the raids conduct ed throughout this state by the De- partment- of Justice evidence was un- covered which showed these alleged automobile schools to be hotbeds of radicalism.
 It is reported that one of these schools was located in Bridgeport and a number of mer"bers were seized in the recent Red" raids in this city These men are now locked up in Hartford.
 One local jitneynan who was ques- toned in regard to the matter, stated that he attended one of these schools in this city, but refuses to state whether Bolshevis;1 was preached to the members. It is believed, however, that the Department of Justice has succeeded in closing up the schools.
 Other alleged automobile schools are said to have been located in Hart ford and South Manchester.

Rob Store Ill Heart
 Of City
Most Daring Burglary Perpetrated in Some
 Time-Loss S6,0OO. NUNNOLD ROBBED
 FOR FIFTH TIME

One of the most daring robberies ever attempted in this city occurred las5 night, probably at an early hour, when thieves entered the tailor shop of L. E. Nunnold, 193 Fairfield ave- nue, and made off with a quantity of goodS valued at S6,000. The theft was discovered at 7:30 o'clock this morning, and the Bridgeport police are now seeking to apprehend the burglars.
 The robbers gained an entrance to the store by climbing up the front door, and pushing in the transom Once inside they gathered up every suit, overcoat and bolt of cloth avail able, and carried the goods out of the rear door. It is probable that the thieves had an automobile or other conveyance in the alley ilt he rear of the store, and by this means made a clean getaway.
 According to the story told to the police, the robbery must have occur red sometime during the evening, probably about o'clock. How the burglars could enter store in one Of the main lhoroughfares of the city al that hour of the night, and avoid detection is a matter of great mystery Scratches on the front door, and liiISSA pIIIlS OH the snow plainly that the thieves climbed up the door and crawled through the opening above.
 The rear door was bolted, and barred with several large pieces of wood, but the burglars removed these Instructions and used the door as a means of exit. This door was found open this morning.
 The robbery was first discovered about 7:30 o'clock this morning, when an employee entered the store and found suits and pieces of cloth scat tered about the floor. The rear door was open, and several show cases and clothes racks had been thoroughly cleaned out. The police were inn mediately notified, and an investiga- uon was started at once.
 Last nights robbery makes the fifth time that the Nunnold store has been entered. On one occasion about two years ago the shop was entered and S1 300 worth 0T N'- was stolen. A Hort time ago thieves made another attempL e-.-c- ere, but were frightened away when the transom crashed to the floor.

WILL NOT KEEP OUT CHEAP
 GERMAN TOYS

Glasgow, Nov. British toy man ufacturers have received no encour- agement from the Board of Trade that they would receive any protec- ton against the invasion of cheap toys made in Germany. Instead of this they have been told that they must revise their methods, both of manufacturing and trading, to em- ploy up-to-date machinery, and to re- ly upon British enterprise. No at tempt will be made to keep out Ger man toys.
 The correspondent of the ''HeraId'' explains the importance of the Ger man toy industry.
 For it's dimensions it is one of the most highly developed in the country, he says. It is the serious occupation of nearly 100000 men women and children in many parts of the coun- try. It has it's own chambers of com merce, its own trade newspapers, and its own annual exhibit of novelties. The writer has a copy of the princi- pal trade journal of the toYmakers before him, and he notes that they are seeking the raw material of their work. The advertise for metals of va rious kinds, for ivory, bone, wood, glass, cardboard, papiermache, lea ther, wax, rubber, celluloid, etc. We gather that there are extensive toy factories in Erzbirge. in Saiffen, Grunhaichen, OIbernhau. and Sayda. There is a huge factory in the TO- mantle village of Oberammergau, the headquarters of the Passion Play. and employing 400 workers.
 The Raube Alb of Wurtemburg is scattered over with little towns and villages where toymaking is the chief industry next to agriculture Son. nenberg considerable town in Thur ingia and it's entire neighborhood make little else than toys, and in Berlin. Nuremberg, and Stuttgart are large factories solely engaged in the making of toys so largely used for export.
 At g meeting recently of the Nur- emberg TCynakers' association t was announced that m the year before the war his association, combined with hat of s T tgart, had exported more toys to Great Britain and Amer ica than the output of the whole o1 France, and that German manufac- turers, especially of the artis ic an6 more expensive sorts. had no longer any reason to fear the competition o1 their rivals.

 BaIl(1lt
Escaped From Jail-Robbsd People On Union Pacific
 Train

Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 19-Seven armed posses and troop of cavalry from Fort D. A. Russell today search ed the hills and brush lands in wide area around Medicine Bow for Will liam Carlisle, notorious bandit, who last night outwitted his pursuers, rob- bed passengers on d Union Pacific train of $25O and escaped into the darkness, wounded.
 Carlisle boarded the train at Rock River, entered a tourist sleeper by smashing a vestbule window, fired one shot through the roof of the car to terrify passengers, and forced all but "old men, women, children, sol diers and sailors to contribute.
 T do not rob these" he told the passengers.
 As Carlisle stood in the vestibule waiting for the train to stop, ;~ pas senser fired at close range and the bandit is believed to have been hit. He carried a rifle over his shoulder and a pistol in his hand. Blood was found on the pistol which the bandit dropped in his hurried escape. His hat also was found by the train guard.
 Passengers were positive from de- scription that the bandit was Car lisle, who escaped from the state prison at Rawlins last Saturday, and railroad officials from other evidence were equally sure that the train ban dit who terrorized throughout this state in 1916 is responsible for last nights robbery

LAPSED WAR RISK POLICIES
 REInSTATED

Plans to call the attention of all ex-service men to the liberal prov3s- ions now being offered by the Gov ernment for reins -atement of lapsed War Risk Insurance policies were perfected at last nights meeting of the Red Cross After-Care Commit tee.
 George L. Warren, special local rep resen Eative of the War Risk Insur- ance Bureau and chairman of the Bridgeport Red Cross Chapter, has arranged to have all information re- lating to the Government Insurance available at the Home Service Of fee in the County Court House. As sistance in the reinstatement of lapsed policies ard cuuver to permanent forms of insurance will be rendered to any ex-seryice men. The Red Cross Office is open daily and also on Monday evenings.
 Practically every man who carried Government insurance may now be reinstated even though the premiums have not been paid since his dis charge from service. December 31 of this year is named as the time limit within which policies may be reinstated without payment of pre- n1iums during the time that the policy had lapsed. The committee plans to urge every man to avail himself of this unusual opportunity to reclaim Government Insurance.

Allies May Enforce
 Treaty
Great Britain and France Feel Necessity of
 Action. CANNOT DELAY
 MUCH LONGER

London, Nov 19 - Great Britain and France are considering whether they are not compelled to proceed with the carrying ouC of the German peace treaty and the operation of the League of Nations independently of he United StaIes, pending the deci- sion of the American government on it's course.
 It is pointed out that matters are continually arising under the treaty which need immediate attention, such as the operation of the various pie biscite commissions, and it is consid : cred that because of this fact it is no longer possible 10 delay making the pact operative.
 The opinion strongly prevails here that Great Britain will not ac- cept any reservations made by the United States Senate which would necessitate the negotiation of a new treaty, as the British government, it is declared, has every present inten- tion of abiding by the decisions of the Paris conference.
 The belief still exists in this capi- tai that the American government will ultimately take it's place with the Allies. Meanwhile there appears to be possibility that Great Britain and the others will proceed without the United States.

ASSERTS
 PEOPLE NEED, MUST
 AND WILL HAVE COAL
Says As Long As Gov ernment Stands They Will Not Be Prevented From Getting It. Operators and Miners In Executive Session.

Washington, Nov. IS - Speaking with ti1o authority of President Wilson's cabinet Fuel Administrator Garfield told representatives of the bi- luminous coal operators and miners here today that the people of tine United States nerd, must have and will have coal" and "as long as the gov ernnent stands they will not be prevented from getting it by anything the operators OF min CTS may do."
 Dr. Garfield explained that his pur- pose was to furnish the conference with the data which he would use in determining what wage advances, if any, agreed to by the operators and miners could be borne properly by the public.
 Scale committees of bftuminous miners and operators in the central competitive field went into executive session today to negotiate a wage contract, after Federal Fuel Admins trator Garfield had urged upon them the necessity for adjusting their diff ferences and producing the coal the country needs.
 ''I represent the people of the Unit ed States in a different sense from the Secretary of Lafbor,,' Dr. Garfield said. Tt is part of MT. Wilson's func ton to effect conciliation. It is my sole function to exercise those powers conferred on the fuel administra ton; to see that an adequate supply of coal is furnished the people of the United States and to see that in times of stress such as we are unhappily in the midst, the prices asked and re- ceived for coal are not excessive.
 We all realize now that in the great coal industry the public is 9 partner. At one time the operators and miners. like farmers, considered themselves peculiarly in power. But the public has a paramount interest.
 "The people of the United States will not consent to pay an excessive price for coal. We are all agreed to that, but the question now is what is an excessive price?'' nor will the pub lie agree to go without this com nodity.
 The people of the United States, need, must have, and will have, coal, and they will not be prevented by anything the operators and miners may do unless the government is dis solved into a chaotic condition.
 "The people of the United States are willing to pay sufficient to main tain American standards, but the question is what are American stand = ards? The people want the operators to have a just return, but what is a just return?"
 Dr Garfield said he was not yet prepared to say what changes could reasonably be made in the price of coal, as all the necessary data was not in hand One of the items not yet determined, he said was that of the Fed eraI income taxes for 1918 which the operators have clai-ned should be included in the cost of operation. The government has disputed this.

Washington, Nov. 19.---The confer ence had been called to decide upon the final administration tactics in the fight for "a -ifiCation, which is ex- pected to come to an end today or to- morrow.
 After the presidents letter was read there were indications that unless compromise could be effected the ad- ministration senators would line up a most solidly against ratification.
 The presidents letter. addressed to Senator Hitchcock and dated yester- day, follows:
 My dear Senator:
 You were good enough to bring me word that the Democratic senators supporting the treaty expected to hold a conference between the final votes on the Lodge resolution of ratification and that they would be glad to re- ceive a word of counsel from me.
 'I should hesitate to offer it in any detail, but l assume that the senators only desire my judgmentNupon the all- important question of the final vote on the resolution containing the many reservations of Senator Lodge.
 "On that I cannot hesitate, for in my opinion the resolution in that form does not provide for ratifca- ton, but "a her for the nullifica ton of the treaty. I sincerely hope that the friends and supporters of the treaty will vote against the Lodge resolution of ratification.
 T understand that the door will then probably be open for a genuine resolution of ratification. 1 T trust that all true friends of the treaty will refuse to support the Lodge resolution.
 Cordially and sincerely yours, "WOODROW WILSON,"
