MONEY GREATEST NEED

Corpus Christi, Texas. September 10.
Mayor Gordon Boone and Roy Miller,
chairman of the local relief committee
today requested The Associated Press
to make public the following state
ment:
The situation, so far as food sup
plies are concerned, IS we'll in hand
Donations received from various cities
added to the subsistence furnished by
for the present at least, solved the food
problem.
Our immediate needs are clothing
and financial aid.
"Hundreds-in fact thousands-were
compelled to leave their dwellings, on
brief notice scantily clad and leaving
all their worldly goods behind. In the
storm area contiguous to Corpus
Christi at least four thousand are
homeless and dependent upon the gem
crosby of the people of Texas and
other states, not only for food and raj
ment, but for a new start in life.
I'VE therefore urge the public to
continue to send their gifts of clothing
and money. We are hopeful that these
gifts especially of a financial nature,
will be large enough to enable us to
help these destitute people to repair
some of the material damage they have
suffered, and with regenerated spirit,
to begin life anew. All contributions
should be sent to Clarke Pease, chair
man financial committee. Corpus

GERMANY IS STRONG

HENRY MORGENTHAU.
Came Through War Perfect
Dynamo Of Strength, With
Military Power I'm
impaired


Paris, September 19.--"Germany came
through this war perfect dynamo of
strength Her human military power IS
practically as great as ever and her 65,-
0O0, 900 people have been schooled and
hardened by trials. They have learned
economy and self denial
1.-THE nation has been comprised into a
concentrated mass, which is surcharged
with energy and moving with centripetai
force, while Germany's neighbors are
spreading themselves out thin, and quar-
reling and moving with centrifugal
force.'
Thus spoke Henry Morgenthau, who
headed the United States investigation
commission which has been at work in
Poland in discussing today his observa-
tons in central Europe.
"And what will be the result?'| Mr..
Morgenthau asked. {
Replying to his own question, he con-
tinued:
IF disintegration keeps up among Ger
manys neighbors there can be but one
result. I doubt whether Germany fully
appreciates her own strength. AS she
sits, calmly watching the dickering going
on between the new states, which are
losing sight of great principles and fight
ing over little strips of territory, she
must take grim satisfaction in the battle
her enemies are waging in her behalf
And Germany, encouraged by such dis
cord among weak and struggling states
undoubtedly will resort to arms within
a few years and regain her lost territory

DRAMATIC ESCAPE
OF LENO|R FROM
DEATH DISCUSSED
Wins Stay of Execution
After Firing Squad Has
Taken Place-ReveIa-
tons Are Expected

Paris, September 19.-The dramatic
escape early this morning of Pierre Lee
noir from death at the hands of a fir
the subject of lively conversation in
political circles today. Lenoir had been
tried with Senator Humbert and other
defendants on a charge of having COM
municated military intelligence to the
enemy and was sentenced to death.
The firing squad already had taken
its place and preparations were being
made to escort Lenoir out to meet death
when the condemned man begged to be
confronted with former Premier GAIL
laux, who is under charges similsr to
those on which Lenoir was convicted.
The execution was suspended and the
condemned man remained in his cell
Nothing has been officially given out
concerning the persona ges who may
be affected by Lenoir's death-door ae
cusations but members of the Cham
Der of Deputies. in discussing the mat
ter today declared that the CaillauX
case was mentioned and also that the
name of Ernest Judet former owner o.
the Paris newspaper LEclair. who
under indictment here on a charge o.
having had dealings with the enemy
in the purchase or founding of French
newspapers with German capital, came
up. Judet for a long time has been in
Switz@land. The arrest of anothel
member of the Chamber of Deputie.
and also of a prominent newspaper
owner is said to be expected shortly
in connection with Lenoir's statement
and it was even asserted that his reve-
lations might cause a reopening of III.
Humbert case.
Lenoir's escape from the waiting exc
cutioners was nothing short of miracu-
lous. Captain Julien declining to post
pone the execution, signing the regis
ter of the Santc prison, accounting 70
Lenoir and ordering Lenoir ito proceed
to enter the waiting automobile which
was to convey him to the Vincennes
wood and death. M Demolines, LIE
noir's lawyer. nearly had an alterca-
ton with Captain Julien while endeav-
oring to secure few minutes respite
for the prisoner in order that he mi ht
telephone to NJ. Ignace. under secretary
of state for military justice.
Having secured the permission to
telephone, M. Demolines secured re-
prieve of an hour for the prisoner. NJ
Demolines then entered an automob bile
and raced to the home of NJ Ignace, who
received him in his night clothes at
o'clock in the morning, and made the
stay of execution of sentence indef-
mite.
Meanwhile Lenoir will remain in hi.
cell and await eventualities

Washington, September 1s-Advised
that the Mexican government has in
structed its consuls to refuse to issue
passports of American citizens going to
certain districts of Mexico unless these
Americans wave the responsibility to
the American government for any phys
cal injury which might result, the state
department today telegraphed to. the
American consulate at Tampico that any
such waiver would not operate to inter-
fere in the slightest with the obligation
of the United States to protect its cit-
zens under international law. The de-
partment also announced that it had
answered inq8ies from Americans
planning to visit these Mexican districts
20 the same effect.
There is no treaty between the United
states and Mexico to cover the situation
arising from the requirement inaugu-

the departments message was said to
point out that it was an accepted maxim

ment has the power to prevent the en-
trance of foreigners into it's territory Of
