EX-KA|SER IN PERFECT
HEAL III; HAS BOUGHT A.
HOME TO SETTLE DOWN.

Amerongen, Aug. 21.-Recent reports
from Germany and other places have
given rise to the belief that the former
German emperor is seriously sick-suf
result of worry.
The correspondent, who has seen the
former monarch nearly every day since
the armistice was signed, is in a posi-
ton to state that the one-timc war lord
is in no sense of the word a broken
man. His general health is excellent
and his body is kept in good condition
by his daily three hours of wood-saw
ing.
DIR. Carl Forester. the former emper-
or's body physician, declares the former
ruler is remarkably healthy, both ply
sically and mentally.
Amerongen, Tuesday Aug. 19.-The
former German empress personally Sc
lected the House of Doom" which Will
liam HohenZollern has purchased as the
future home in which she and her one
time imperial husband hope to settle
down and live the lives of country
gentlefolk in Holland.
The former emperor has not yet seen
the House of Doorn," but it is antic.
ipated in Amerongen that he soon will
pay u visit there. Recently he is re.
ported to have been taking carriage
rides with Count Won Bentinck, owner
of Amerongen Castle, where he is liV-
ing at present. 1t is declared that he
has expressed himself as being anxious
for a change in scenery from that with
in the limits which the Dutch govern
ment has restricted him in his move
ments. The house, though rich in his
tory and imposing in appearance, has
only II rooms in addition to small
chambers for servants.
1t is not expected that the former
emperor will leave Amerongen for three

GERMAN LIBERALS IN
MEETING DEMAND THAT
ERzBERGER Be HANGED

Berlin, Wednesday, Aug. 20.-Under
the slogan, Away with ErZberger."
the national liberals last night staged
a noisy meeting of protest in which
the speakers subjected the minister of
finance to vicious verbal grilling.
Erzberger's public activities from the
time he conducted the armistice nego.
tiations down to the present enactment
of radical measures of taxation We're
made subject of attacks.
"Traintor!' 'Scoundrelr' "Camou-
flaged corruptionist.' and similar epi-
thets were heard Some of the speak
ers demanded that Erzberger be strung
up on the nearest lamp post A resolu-
ton was adopted demanding Erzber
gers retirement.
In an open letter to President Ebert,
Dr. Karl Helfferich. former vice chan
cellor. sets forth the reasons which
prompt him to wage public warfare
against Matthias Erzberger, whom he
designates as "a menace TO the purity
of our public life" and declares to be
a most unsuted and at the same time
dangerous incumbent of the financial
ministry, in view of the far-reachng
Jurisdiction given him by the govern
ment.
Berlin dispatches early in July re-
ported that DIR. Helfferich blamed the
reichstag's peace program of July. 1917.
.fathered by Erberger. for the moral col
lapse of the German people. Later he
announced that. having failed TO induce
Erzberger to sue him. he would enter
suit against Erzberger to prove him a
traitor and to bring the truth to light. !

LEGERE SURE
 ACTORS WILL WIN STRIKE

Ben Legere, formerly a member of the Socialist party in Bridgeport, long a stormy petrei of the labor movement, was a visitor in Bridge port today. Though long associated q with the I. w. w.. he IS now an actor, a. member of the American Fedora tion, and among those who are on strike with the Equity Association.
 Legere has appeared in some fla nous plays, including Tt Pays to Ad- vertise," and is sure that the actors will win the present strike.
 Asked whether if at some later date the stage hands have a labor difficulty the actors will support them, Legere said he was sure they would. This strike.'' he said, ''has opened the eyes of the artists, and they understand that they must make common cause with other workers to get justice.''
 Legere saw something of the great direct action strikes in Canada, which were conducted entirely without vio- fence, and upon the largest scale ever known in the Dominion government.

CLAIM FORD IS TO LOCATE IN
 NEW HAVEN

New Haven, Aug. 20 - Notwith- standing the numerous contradic- tions during the past year there seems to be a firm foundation for the truth of the statement that the Ford Automobile Company is going to To- cate in the city of New Haven, and very soon.
 At River and James streets there is a large tract of land which, with the exception of a few shacks. is un- occupied. This. it is said, is to be the site of the new factory which is to cover the entire plot and to be four stories in height. The contract has been let to Sullivan and Me- Keown of Dixwen avenue. who will commence to break ground at the end of the present month. The oc- cupants of the few houses on the site have already had notice to va cate inside of days
 It is learned on good authority that the new factory is to be used as an assembling plant and that the many parts which constitute the ubiquitous ''flivver" will be shipped here to be put together under the same expert method which has made the Ford factory famous in Detroit. It is stat ed that the entire trade of New Eng land will be taken care of from New Haven.
 Henry Ford was one of the first to raise the wages of his workmen, even before the high pay era began, it is believed that the coming of the Ford concern to this city may have a decided effect on the labor situation here.

NCOnIlnueu rom rage One-J for the expansion of facilities. It was believed, Mir Cuyler said the rail- roads should have from $7OO, 900 GOO to S1, ,O0O, 100000 of new capital annually for expansion of facilities to meet the growth of population and industry.
 The proposed board also would have authority to distribute traffic when necessary to relieve congestion of certain lines, to require the use of joint terminals when in the public in terest, and, in times of national emer- gency, to instruct all lines into a uni fled system. It also was reCOm- mended that congress authorize the construction of existing lines into strong, competitive systems, when considered to be in the public inter est.
 The association recommended Mir Cuyler said, a great unifcation Of public regulation of the railroad by broadening national control. It be- lieved, he said, there should be ex- elusive national control of the issue of securities and the expenditure of new capital. Provision for federal incorporation of interstate carriers also was advocated.
 To avoid the risk of financial dis aster, upon retuEn of the road to pri- Vate operation, MT. Cuyler said the railway executives believed it neces- sary that the guaranteed standard re- turn from the government be con- unued until it was possible ito restore the equilibrium between revenues and expenses and make the carriers again self-supporting. It was proposed that this readjustment of rates be under taken by the l. c. c. in consultation with the Director General of railroa ds and the proposed federal transporta- tion board.
 By way of further financial relief for the roads upon resumption of pri- vate operation it was advocated that their indebtedness to the government on account of capital expenditures during the period of government con- trol be funded for ten years.

SUBMITS FOUR RESERVATIONS
 ON COVENANT

Washington. Aug. 20-Four reser- vations on the League of Nations covenant are embodied in a separate resolution prepared today by Sena- tor Pittman of Nevada a Democratic member of the Foreign Relations Committee, for introduction in the Senate.
 Senator Pittman said the resolution was in line with the suggestion made to the Foreign Relations Committee yesterday by President Wilson that if reservations are to be made they should be embodied in a separate re solution and not in the resolution of ratification. which might make new negotiation necessary.
 Senator Pittman said the reserva- ton had not been submitted to the President. They are similar to those proposed by a group of seven Repub- lican Senators and deal with the right of withdrawal from the League, Arti- cIe x. domestic questions in the Mon roo Doctrine.
