U, s. AID TO BEAT
B0LSHEvIKl, SAYS
RUSSIAN GENERAL
(By Associated Press)


WASHINGTON, Sept. 20 If the
Russian anti-Bolshevist forces are sup
piled with sufficient militaryequipment
they can strike a decisive blow at the
Bolsheviki, General Edward C. Hermo-
MUS, chief of the Russian government
supply commission in Paris, declared
today after comforting with state de-
partment officials in an effort to Sc
cure supplies from the United States.
The Bolsheviki are becoming ex-
hausted, he said, and if Petrosrad
were taken their morale would be
broken. Gen. Udinitsh and his army,
he added, are preparing for an attack
on Petrograd and the movement in
the Baltic region is assuming an i'm
portant character. Gen. Hermonius
suggested that if the British must
evacuate Archangel, they might we'll
do so through Petrograd after clearing
that city of the BOlshevists.
Advance is Begun.
Lack of supplies, he assigned as the
chief reason for the recent retreat OF
the all-Russian armies in Siberia but
said that conditions there had improv
ed and another advance had begun
the success of which depends upon
equipment available.
General Hermonius asked that the
United States furnish at least five pc,
cent of it's military supplies to Russia
as the British and French govern
ments had furnished more than five
per cent
He also asked that the United States
join with France and Great Britain ir
aiding to rehabilitate Russia which is
in dire need Of industrial and agricul
tural equipment. This movement, he
added, would offer great opportunities
for extension of trade.

commissions arrests is general the
public is suffering from bad service at
It's own expense. The dollars that are
dishonesty taken by conductors should
go to the maintenance of a better
equipment and the purchase Of more

local lines every nickel that is taken
by the conductors improperly is not
only theft from the companies, but
from the public as well.
Cash fare boxes. it is stated, have
been ordered and will soon be in

The Ex-Kaiser's Punishment.

Two eminent French jurists have
submitted a report to Premier Clemen-
eeau on the possible punishment Of
the former German emperor for the
crimes of the war. They hold that his
extradition cannot be refused, as he is
not a political refugee. They point
out, however, that he should not be
brought to trial before a tribunal of
common law, because though his will
commanded his hand did not execute
and he could, therefore, be only pun
ished as an accomplice. An interna-
tional tribunal must be found, but The
Hague arbitration court is ineompe-
tent to try him, as it was only design
ed for cases involving no penalties.
A new jurisdiction must be created,
which, these jurists declare, should be
the first instrument Of league of ma
tions and in which should appear ex-
clusively the states which fought Ger
many.
On the point of the former kaiser's
responsibility, the report says:
"The emperor in the first place as
King of Prussia is president of the
confederation by virtue of a special
law in which human will does not
enter. The German sovereign depends
only on God and the sword. With
such conception of power it would
be unjuridical to the highest degree

The Fifth Loan.

Secretary Glass announces that the
Treasury plans only one more big war
loan drive, that to be inaugurated in
April 1t will probably be for a So
600 100000 loan, though possibly one
billion less. Should the government
need more money from this source of
bond issues it will probably float its
subsequent loans by the method for
merly adopted and not by direct APP
peals to the public.
II is impossible to conceive that the
fifth loan to be fioated in April will
be the last of the war issues. This
would mean that the country would go
at the close of this fiscal year upon a
tax revenue basis, meaning an enor-
nous immediate tax burden such as
the pending revenue bill does not pro
pose.
1t may be accepted, therefore, that
there will be further war loans fol
lowing the fifth, whatever may be the
method of their fotation. The fact
that this next will be the last to be
offered direct to the people should
stimulate it and insure its prompt sue
cess. At the same time it is to be re-
membered that those who wish to buy
bonds of subsequent issues can always
do so through the banks. The hope is
that a habit of bond buying, stimu
lated by the war, will be continued
and that the public will in the future
partake freely of all the issues of the
government, whatever the immediate
means Of sale.

The Opening Oratory.

The speeches made at the opening
of the peace conference are line eX-
amples of taste and the gift of ex-
preston The place was Paris; and
such things are ordered well in France,
And two of the speakers were French
men.
The occasion was of such transcend
ent moment, there was danger Of over
statement. This was avoided. Not
one of the speakers transgressed.
President Poincare, of course, stood
the severest test. His address of vel
come must deal with the case in gen
eral. He accomplished his task with
ont accomplishing any particular
feature There is probably not man
,, in France who could have acquitted
him better.
Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Lloyd George
had simpler tasks, but yet had reason
for care in choosing their words. Both
chose them we'll Mr.. Wilson speaks
on all occasions with much felicity
after the fashion somewhat of a
schoolman. Mr.. Lloyd George is an
orator who can suit himself to all au-
diences. from turbulent house of
commons to a turbulent crowd in a
town hail.
He and Winston Churchill. by the
way. are the two men in British poll
tics today whose public addresses most
strongly suggest the American style
of popular oratory. Mr.. Churchill is
half American, his mother being a
native of New York. Their fuency,
their ready employment of popular
phrases, their knack at hammering
home strong point, all suggest that
they would be perfectly at home on
the American stump.
Mr.. Clemenceau made his acknowl-
Judgments in the best style. He had
listened to some very handsome COM
pliments. Mfr. Wilson and Mr.. Lloyd
George had addressed him in terms
warm in the extreme. But the vet
eran-more accustomed to criticism
than mendation-accepted their of
ferings in a spirit that well matched
their own, and took up the gavel for
business with an announced purpose
to do business.
This very interesting man, as is well
known, spent several years when
young in this country, acquired the
language, and gained an intimate
knowledge of institutions which he adj
mires and praises. Why should he not
revisit his old haunts, make note of
the growth of every kind on every
hand, and make comparisons between
the old and the new timesf No
Frenchman would be more welcome.

Car Fare Stealing.

At the recent hearing on inter
company transfers allegations were
made by citizens that there was much
leakage" of fares on the local lines,
which would account for part of the
falling off in revenues under the
straight five-cent fare rule. This as
sertion was neither affirmed nor de-
MED by the companies. The matter
was Of such serious moment, however,
bearing as it did directly upon the
question Of the adequacy of the pres
emit fare rate, that the Public Utili-
ties Commission instituted an investi-
cation on its own account, and dis
covered a condition that led to drastic
action Saturday. Nine conductors were
arrested on the charge of embezzle
ment, having been detected, it was
announced, in the act Of taking fares
that they failed to register and ap-
propriating them to their own uses.
It was further announced that these
were but examples of other eases of
dishonesty in the cars Other arrests
followed and still others are indicated
as imminent.
No attempt has been made by the
utilities commission to ascertain what
percentage of the fares collected are
returned to the company-in other
words, what is the degree of total leak
age. These cases, however, suffice to
show, if the evidence upon which the
arrests were made is dependable, that
there has been daily loss in revenue
amounting to very large sum. They
establish at least a presumption that
will affect directly the contention of
the companies that they are unable to
maintain themselves on a fye-cent fare
basis.
# the condition indicated by the
