Frankfort Marines
Will Be Dissolved

With the American Forces in
France, Sept. IL Correspondence of
the Associated Press. )-Reports
from Frankfort-on-the- Main say that
the marine detachment, which has
been dominant in that city since the
revolution. is to be dissolved and the
men enlisted in the state police serv-
ice if they so desire.
The marine detachment in Frank
fort is one of the queerest military
developments in all Germany since
the revolution, according to Ameri-
can officers who specialize on Ger
man military affairs. It was ORR
ginallv self-appointed and has always
exercised its command without any
regular permission from higher au-
thority, vet it has been in practical
control of Frankfort for months. The
officers and men are of Spartacist
tendencies, yet they have been moder-
ate IN their actions and the citizens
are said to be we'll satisfied with the
manner in which the organization
maintained public order.
1t has been understood among the
Americans that the Ebert govern
ment desired to suppress the detach-
ment and replace it with Noske
troops on the ground that Frankfort
was continuing to be breeding place
for Communists.

Find 100000 in
Rags and Without
Supply of Food

Warsaw, Oct. Son their entry
into the district of Vladimir, just
freed from the enemy by the victor
ious advance of General Haller's
troops, American Red Cross officers
found population of 100000 chill
dren practically foodless and in cloth
ing that was little better than rags.
Of the $4,000 children in Vladimir, i.
was reported that 5000 were COM
plete orphans, having neither father
nor mother. To care for such a large
number there is but one orphan asyl-
UNI capable Of accommodating 100
children.
AS a temporary measure the Red
Cross has sent several cars of sup
plies to Vladimir. Another train was
despatched to the Haleby districts,
where the conditions of the population
are equally severe. Here were found
80 villages on the old German-R Rus
sian battle line. Many of them had
been totally destroyed. Refugees
from Russia augmented the normal
population, and to take care of them
the Red Cross sent to Haleby 80 bales
Of clothing.

Germans Will Use
Movies in Schools

Berlin, Sept. 10 CORRESPONDENCE of
the Associated Press. )-The German
government is planning to provide
educational moving pictures for the
schools. The theory is that children
of the cities never have chance to
study zoology. botany. meteorologv.
or geology. 1t is believed they can be
helped immensely by films on these
subjects.
A big German film company has
arranged with a Major Krieger to
prepare, under the superintendency of
numerous educators and scientists. a
large number of scientific films which
can be inserted in the curriculum of
the schools and intesify the interest
in the studies. The dullest subjects
of study, such as the caterpillar. it is
planned to Illustrate and make vivid.
Similarly the film will be used
wherever possible in mathematics,
phvsics, chemistry, and will, it is
believed. supplant much expensive
apparatus, time stealing experiments
and trips of investigation and study.
The difficulty seems to lie in the pro-
duction of the films but this is
thought to be solved.

New British Ship
White Elephant

London, Sept. Is CORRESPONDENCE
of the Associated Press.)-The first
Of new type of British cruisers, the
Raleigh, launched a few days ago,
is expected to give the navy trouble
to find her suitable work.
The Raleigh is of $50 tons with a
speed of IS knots. She was designed
to hunt raiders such as the Moewe
and the Wolf. She was given guns
larger than the guns usually placed
on light cruisers so she might be able
to outrange any commerce raider
the enemy might send out Now that
there are no German raiders, it is
conceded by the navy that she is
much in the nature Of white elep-
hant, being too costly for light
cruiser and too light for service with
a battle cruiser squadron.
The Raleigh is armed with rs inch
guns, provided with an underwater
bulge" which designed to make her
torpedo proof. and is so divided that
any two Of her main compartments
may be flooded without endangerine
the vessel She has anti-aircraft
guns and hurns oil feul only.

Say Many Civilians
Still Wear Uniforms

Washington. Oct. 8.-The war de-
partment authorizes the publication
of the following from the office of
the chief of staff: 1.-THE good name
OF the military service should not
suffer unjustly by reason Of the occa-
sional lawless acts Of men in uni
form.
ut is the desire sof the war de-.
partment that the civil authorities
treat any lawlessness by man in
uniform exactly as though the act
were committed b yany other citi-
zen. If man arrested turns out to
be still in the service, he should,
wherever practicable. be turned over
to the military authorities. In all
other cases, the civil authorities only
have jurisdiction.
"There are in the United States
less than 100000 men in military
service. and over 100000 who have
been discharged. The former are in
camns and garisons. The latter are
in all parts Of the country, and many
hundreds Of thousands of them are
still wearing the uniform or parts.

Chile is Fighting
Problem of III, C.. T.,

Santiago, Chile, Aug. % GORE
spondence of the Associated Press.)
The Chilean government is endea-
voring to relieve the pressure of the
high cost of living by stabilizing the
rate of exchange. It has proposed
the adoption of a gold standard and
that Chilean currency should be made
convertible at sight. This would be
attended by the organization of CEN
trail bank to act in the same way as
the Federal Reserve Bank of the Uni
ted States. 1t is argued that this
would put the economical resources
of the country on steady financial
basis and eliminate the private
speculation in gold which is felt to
have much influence on the present
exchange rates.
The rise of sterling exchange is
attributed in part to an adverse bal
ance Of trade against Chile in 1918
to the amount of about $1,000, 900.
This difference has to be paid in
gold, consequently the peso declines
in value.
Chileans have been affected by the
increased cost Of living like the rest
of the world and there have been pub
lie demonstrations, meetings Of la
Dor men and congressional debates
on restrictions upon providing work
for unemployed.
Nitrate which is the main stay of
Chilean industry, has been out of the
market for several months owing to
the slump in the demand resulting
from the ending of the war and
sacrcity of freight steamers. This
threw thousands of workers out of
employment. To meet this labor stu
alton the government proposed meas
ures providing for the expenditure of
several million dollars in construc-
ton Of highways and railways.

Plan to Obtain
Better Freight
Delivery Here

Cooperation of the St. Louis South
western Railroad with the Pine Bluff
iobbers and wholesalers in an effort
to bring about a more satisfactory
freight delivery condition is promised
in a letter from w. Stephenson, sup
erintendent, to E. B. Bloom, secretary
of the Chamber Of Commerce, who
took the matter up with the superln-
tendant following a recent meeting
of the wholesalers and jobbers.
Mr. Stephenson states:
reflective October l, we placed a
second crew and engine on the Little
Rock branch to make round trip
daily daily from North Little Rock
to Altheimer and this will take all
the work of the regular local crew ex-
cept station switching, merchandise,
etc., which will permit them to cover
this branch every week dav. doing
the detail work. and this will, I am
sure give Pine Bluff patrons satisfac-
tory service as merchandise will reach
it's destination on that branch the day
after it is loaded at Pine Bluff.
On the C. A. and E. branch, that is
stations between Stuttgart and Eng
land, we have arranged to load mer-
chandise for stations in this territory
on Monday. Wednesday and Friday
and it will be moved to Stuttgart on
a through freight usually leaving
Pine Bluff shops at o'clock a. m., and
arriving at Stuttgart about a. m.
it will move from Stuttgart on our
local freight train and arrive at it's
destination the same date. which will
give Pine Bluff patrons similar SER
vice as on the Little Rock branch,
with the exception of being on a tri-
weekly service, as our local freight
runs tri-weekly only on the c. A. and
E. branch.
This letter has been referred to the
Pine Bluff wholesalers and jobbers,
and meeting will be held at the
Chamber of Commerce at 1920 this
morning to discuss it.
