 It was on this trip that he came in personal touch with General Deni- kline whom he met at Rostow, Russia, then the headquarters of the leader of the anti-bolsheviki forces. The visit was in the nature of mission from the United States army for the the relief mission on the Russians.
 "is the most patriotic Russian 1 met. He is man of great personal mag netism, and the officers and men l saw appeared to adore him. His army, which is we'll equipped and dis ciplined, is entirely a voluntere force and the men are good fighters.
 "Thc Russians admire the Ameri- cans. Their ideal, so far as l could learn from General Denikine and his officers, is to set up United States of Russia" Captain Schultz said.
 The captain saw only one incident of bolshevik tactics although he was informed they were common, he said.
 While l was at Denikine'S head quarters a patrol brought in the body of a peasant who had been killed by the bolsheviki few kilometers from the army's front" he said "The man evidently had died in horrible agony. The skin about his wrists had been circled with a sharp knife and pulled down over the fingers like a glove. Then the finger tips had been fastened together with wooden pegs. That isn't hearsay. 1 saw the body three hours after the man had died"
 The captain for time was the as- sistant of the legal department of the army, with headquarters at Treves in the American section of occupied Germany. He has fluent and colloquel knowledge of German and has had fifteen years of service in the Wisconsin national guard.

position to suggest some one, when they hear of an opening in the cast
 It is well for the beginner, no ma.- ter how talented and gifted she may be, to put away her pride. Do not expect to start at the top. Be satis- fled to get a place in one of the so- called mob scenes. Once you are working around a studio, it will not require much time for the keen-eyed director and assistant directors to learn of your ability, if you really have it. Do not become disheartened, however, if your recognition does not come at once. If necessary, take one place after another, in the mob scenes. until you prove your worth. Keep your eyes and ears open, and never neglect an opportunity to cul- tvate friends in lady-like manner.
 Keep n supply of good photographs readily accessible, and do not hesi- tate to give away, discriminatory, of course, your cards with your address and telephone number on them.
 On the back of VOLT photograph i. is always we'll to give. in addition to your address, your height, weight, color of your eyes and hair, and yo1r accomplishments-such as swimming, diving, driving motor cars and boats, horseback riding, dancing, and so forth.

More Advice From May Allison About How to

May Allison.

Originality in going after job is sometimes quite as useful as it IS in playing a part. It is always advis- able to obtain a letter of introduc- tion to the director, or some one Tn authority around the studio, if 1t IS possible Obtaining these letters IS often almost as difficult as getting a place at the very beginning.
 knew of one little girl who was obliged to carry four letters of in- troduction at four different intervals to four different persons, before she finally completed the link leading up to a big director. But it proved to be worth the effort, for she got the place she sought.
 Quite few young girls, and young men, as we'll, have succeeded in get ting an audience. with directors through a friendship with men em- ployed on newspapers and trade pub lications. The reason letter is so valuable is that it removes one from the commonplace of the hundred or two who seek interviews with every director.

Jap "RObin Hoods" Seek Help of the
 Jap Government
(By The Associated Press)

Tokio, Nov. 22.-An almost forgot gotten chapter in the history of old Japan was revived by the arrival at Tokio, the other day, of IF so-called Japanese Robin Hoods, or linen of chivalrous spirit" who came to seek governmental aid for their followers.
 In the Tokugawa days these men known in Japan as "kyokaku" came into existence to oppose the tyranny of the samurai class and to defend the interests of the common people. Their motto was crush the strong and help the weak. Many of these people still exist in the country dis tricts where they are now regarded as political bosses or band leaders.
 They have many followers who have come to be looked down upon by the masses of the people. Many of these followers desire to earn an honest living but find difficulty in securing employment. The situation was brought to the attention of mem- bers of the Diet who are now inter- ceding in behalf of the modern Rob- in Hoods.
 At the same time the "kyckaku" have come to Tokio to warn the gov- ernment that labor unrest is increas- ing throughout Japan and to voice their fear that it will assume a graver aspect if it continues to spread among the poorer people.

Says Germans Are Best Organized
 for Trade War

Sydney, Australia, Nov. 22.-When Premier William M. Hughes return ed from the peace conference he de- clared in a speech at Melbourne:
 Germany stands today the best organized nation in the world for the commercial war that is to be. Ii you want trade relations with Ger. many, get somebody else. The Ger. mans have been guilty of every crime on earth They have put saddler so, cialist where the Hohenzollerns were but what does it matter whether il is Ebert or William? They are the same Germans they were in 1914. Sc far as I am concerned until they have expiated their crimes in deeds, not words, I will not take them by th5 hand and call them friends"

JellicOe Declares British Must Put
 Trust in Navy

Auckland New Zealand, Nov. 22.-- Admiral Jellicoe declared in a speech the other day that until the league of nations had proved itself, the British empire would be wise to trust to the might of the British navy, which was insurance of it's safety. He declared that if a DOT tion of the empire desired to help in naval defense, it should help now.
 The admiral said there were un- known problems in the Pacific which might in future lead to trouble. It was devoutly to be hoped that the league of nations would lessen any possible danger of war. Nevertheless he said he did not think there were many members of the British empire who were prepared to stake their all upon the efficacy of body which had not yet really come into being.
