Paris, Thursday, March 27 (Havas) -
The Senate considered to-day the report
of a commission which was sent to in
vestigate conditions in portions of France
which were occupied by the Germans
during the war. NJ. Reynald, reporting
for the commission, said that the Ger

and that many German officers brought
their wives to the occupied regions to
help them carry away goods taken from
French homes In describing the sys-
tematic pillage of St Quentin and
Rheims, NJ. Reginald said;
"The Germans did not understand the
soul of France and did not realize that
by their methods they but strengthened
our resistance
Examples of German atrocities against
the people of northern and eastern
France and instances of wanton destrue-

All the Railroads in German
Austria May Be
Tied Up
ALLIED FOOD TRAINS
FROM TRIEST STOPPED
Report from Vienna Says
Situation Is Considered
Extremely Grave

Vienna, Thursday, March GA rail
road strike has been called and threatens
to spread to all the roads in this coun-
try. The strike was called partly for
higher wages and partly because of sym
pathy with the Hungarian revolution. 1t
is feared it may lead to the establish
ment of a soviet republic in German
Austria.
The trouble began last night when men
employed by the Southern railroad
walked out. All traffic over this road
is at a complete standstiIl, even allied
food trains from Triest being stopped.
As result Of this interruption of trans
portation of supplies, Vienna is threat
ened with famine. The situation is con-
sidered extremely grave.

BUILDING RAILROAD TO MINES.
Will Open Up Valuable Deposit of Coal
in Idaho.

Coal has been mined in a small way
in the Bighole mountains, Teton county,
Idaho, for many years, to supply the To-
cal demand. The coal is of excellent
quality and the chief drawback to its
wider use has been the remoteness of the
mines from the railroad During the
war the greatly increased demand for
fuel led to an increase of interest in this
field, and late in 1918 preparations were
being made to build q railroad spur to
the mines from the Teton Valley branch

Combinations of Colors.

The trick is in knowing what eolors
to combine. 1t is not enough to know
that such and such a color carries fash
ions immediate favor, but to know just
what color goes with to conform with
the canons of smartness And really in
designing your new frocks if Won have
settled the matter of color combinations
you have accomplished quite little. For
color combinations that would be impos-
sible one season have, because they are
stamped with the approval of some great
dfessmaker or through some association
of the times, taken first place among
combinations that are distinctly possible.
At the present time Paris has stamped
with her approval combinations of me.
tallio hue and almost any color on the
calendar Thus many Of the smsrtest
pew ribbons show silver or gold threads
running one way, with the colored
threads running the other. These are
used extensively in connection with the
new evening frocks, says the Springfield
Republican. Among the interesting ones
are gold and brown, gold with a bright
blue and silver with emerald green. Such
a ribbon would, Of course, give the key
to the color scheme Of the evening frock
on which it was used.
A color combination that isn't pretty
but that has the right" look to it is
violet and brick. Some shades of brown
are used with a vivid red in some of the
evening hats in Paris, and though brown
and red would to most persons seem to
be a very unlovely combination, this
carries the seal of fashions approval.

WARNS AGAIN OF GAS MASKS.
DR., Manning Says They Are Worthless
for Civil EmplOyments.

Another warning that army gas masks,
developed for protection against the
poison gases of the Germans, are al
most worthless in civil employments,
was given by the bureau Of mines as
the result Of the reports Of injuries to
firemen and miners who have attempted
TO use the mask in their work
Director Van H. Manning pointed out
that it was particularly dangerous to
use the army mask where gas was CON
fined, as it was intended for use in the
open. Furthermore, carbon monoxde,
one Of the most dangerous gases in civil
emploYments, cannot be combated with
the army mask.
"The field of civil usefulness of the
army mask Mr. Manning said, lis con
fined to certain chemical industries,
around smelters and roasters, where sui
phur fumes are given off, and in indus
tries using chlorine and bleaching pow

Orange and Lemon Pectin Will Help in
Jelly Making.

The inner white skins of oranges and
lemons are rich in pectn, a fruit gum
essential to a fruit jelly, says the home
making department Of the Hampden
County Improvement league. The thrift
ty housewife will find it economy to
save these for use later in Jelly making
This white portion may be chopped or
cut into fine pieces and dried, then later
soaked up as desired; or the pectin may
be extracted and the solution canned
for future use. With this product avail
able it is possible to make any kind of
fruit Jelly, for where pectin is lacking in
a given fruit juice, such as strawberry,
orange or lemon pectin may be added,
and thus a strawberry jelly made. This
pectin may also be used to strengthen
or increase that present in other fruit
juices,
Pectin from these sources has no char
acteristie flavor, so the flavor of the Jelly
is that of the juice with which it is COM

ICE CREAM CONES
COME UNDER TAX

Attention has been called by the
internal revenue collector to the fact
that the provisions of the tax affecting
the sale of ice cream. soft drinks and
other similar articles also includes the
sale of ice cream sold in cones.
Article Of regulations So of the
tax bill affecting such sales. follows:
The above section provides that the
tax shall be levied upon the sale of
soft drinks, ice cream. ice cream so
das. sundaes. or similar articles of
food and drink when sold for con-
sumption in or in proximity to such
place of business. when any of the
specified articles are sold in such
containers or under such conditions
as to indicate that they would ordi-
narily be consumed in or in proximity
to the place of business. they are
taxable. When ice cream or any other
similar article is sold under conditions
which indicate that it usually would
be consumed at or in proximity to the
premises, the fact that the purchaser
does not consume it there, but carries
it away does not render it free from
tax. When soft drinks, ice cream, or
similar articles Of drink or food are
sold to be carried away for consump-
ton at place not in proximity to
the place of business such drink, ice
cream or food being placed in con
tanners of kind ordinarily used to
| convey the articles indicated, the
sales are not taxable"

A quartet composed Of Clarence
Kerlin, Helen Eggemeyer, Frances
Owens and Claude G. Miller sang
"Hark Hark, the Lark" and DRY

warmly applauded by the large audi
ence.
The second speaker Of the evening
was William Haberkern, who talked on
"Bolshevism."
1.-THE United States and the world at
large are facing the blacklist cloud
they have ever known" began Haber-
kern. "Bolshevism is. involving the
whole world in anarchy.
I'VE must know something of the
origin Of Bolshevism in order to I'M
derstand It. The word itself means
Majority and the people who follow
this movement are those who are in
sympathy with Nicholas Lenine who
started the movement.
There are three societies in the
Socialistic movement in Russia, the
evolutionist who believe in the public
ownership of factories and public util-
tiles through evolution and managed
by men of merit; the revolutionist who
believe in the public ownership OF FAC
tories and public utilities but who be-
lieve in bringing this about overnight
and the BolsheVists who want pubic
ownership of factories and public utll-
tiles brought about by force OF arms
and the management under the con-
troll of the ignorant peasant.
!, Duty Against Boishevists
| TN the United States Bolshevism has
gained ground through the /. w. w.
movement and German propagandtsts.
| We have heard great deal about the
l. w. WIS in this country. 1t has
! been proved that they have been In
, direct connection with the Bolshevists
of Europe. Anyone who talks against
| our government and breeds discomfort
among the people should be branded
as Bolshevist. Our duty IS to weed
| them from society. We must rise to
| the occasion and stamp out Bolshev-
ism. We must first help our Euro
pean brothers and then work in the
United States.
This can be brought about in three
ways, by enforcing our laws, by educa-
ton and through ourselves"
