ALLIES DECIDE
AGAINST TRIAL
FOR Ex-kAISER
Allied Powers Are Told There
Is No Law for Proceeding
Wilhelm Gets a
"Tip."
By KARL H. Won WIEdAND.
Universal Service staff Correspondent.
Special Cable Dispatch.

Berlin, Sept. 1.-THE kaiser will
not be tried"
Such is the conviction in we'll in
formed circles here. 1t is based
upon confidential reports from The
Hague.
Count Hohenzollern, it is known,
sent word recently to friends here
to discontinue all agitation on his
behalf at once, as it would only
serve to embarrass him and keep
the subject alive when there is a
manifest tendency to let the matter
die in view of the incorporating
attitude taken by Holland against
giving up the former emperor.
Friends hitherto in close touch
with Wilhelm and still informed
about inside doings" say the ex-
kaiser has been privately informed
by authentic allied sources in posi-
ton to know the trend of the official
mind in Paris and London, that he
is not to be placed on trial-that the
worst he need expect is formal
request to Holland I'd deliver him
to the allies. which Holland would
refuse. Indeed, it is doubtful if the
allies will even 60 that far.
The allied and associated powers
are said to be now agreeing that
there is no basis in international law
for such proceedings. 1t was after
that assurance that the ex-kaiser
purchased the new home in Holland.
Coincident with the time this wish
was expressed here, all agitation
against the ex-kaiser's trial ceased
abruptly in Germany. Ex-Crown
Princess Cecelie, together with her
two oldest sons, is now with her
husband at Wieringen. There being
no room for the boys to sleep in the
small house occupied by the former
heir to the throne they are staying
at the home of the burgomaster,
Mr.. Piereboom.

''DAIL EIREANN"
SUPPRESSED BY
GREAT BRITAIN
Raids in Principal Cities Dis.
close Explosives - Cop
les Of Documents
Are ConfisCated.

Dublis, Sept. l2-(By The Asso-
ciated Press.)-Following closely
upon a speech delivered by Wis
count French, lord lieutenant and
governor general OF Ireland at Bel
fast Thursday, in which it was de-
ciared that the British government
would not hesitate to resort to dras-
tic steps to maintain law and order
in Ireland, the authorities today pro-
claimed the suppression of the Sim
Fem organizations throughout Ire
land.
1 A series of raids and searches
for arms and documents were made
in the local Sim Fem headquarters
in numerous towns in addition to
Dublin, among them Cork, Belfast,
Galway and Londonderry. Two
prominent Sim Fein members of
the house of commons were arrested
here and the residence of many per-
sons of Sim Fein leanings in Dub
lin and other places were searched.
There were slight disorders in a
few places, but no reports Of a Sc
sious resistance to the raiders have
been received. A detective was shot
and killed in Dublin.
In the raids some arms and explo-
siyes were found Large quantities
OF documents and Sim Fein litera-
ture were seized, notably in Dublin,
where every copy of the report of
Frank P. Walsh and Edward F.
Dunno. who Investigated conditions
in Ireland ON behalf OF American
Irish societies. and correspondence
relating to arranging trade rela-
|tions between Ireland. the United
States and the other foreign coun-
tries fell into the hands of the au-
thorities. The belief was expressed
in Sim Fein quarters here tonight
. that nothing of discriminating nature
was found.

Nebraskan Who Served
With A. E. F. In France
Now Enlists In Navy

Two years of active service in
France and Flanders, during which
time he participated in almost every
offensive conducted by the Ameri-
can forces, did not seem to suffice
for Walter c. St. George, a young
| Nebraska farmer. He therefore en-
listed in the navy yesterday and will
soon be sent to the Great Lakes
naval training station.
The veteran recruit was a mem
Der of the 10lst infantry supply
company prior to his discharge from
the army. He saw severe fighting
while in the Toul sector, in the
Chemn des Danes engagement, the
ST. Mihiel, Aine- Marine and Meuse-
Argonne offensives. His company

New and C0l0rful Bl0uses

The Georgette blouses now on display have
charming originality of design and color scheme
in addition to their perfection of workmanship.
Variations in neck-lines and sleeves (kimona
sleeves are evident in quite few and ntrica-
ces Of embroidery, braid and beads give the dis
tinction which the better blouse should possess
4 A very low U-shaped neck-line, outlined by
roll collar is filled in with bsque Georg-
cite and is the most striking feature of Copen-
hagen blouse that arrived not long ago. This
bisque colored vest effect has small embrod-
cry motif in the center in rich combination Of
mahogany, green rose, gray, gold and blue
which is surrounded by fine traceres of gold
threads. And to make it doubly attractive
loose boxed effect at the wastline has been
achieved by extending the wide hem into short
panels on either side which hang loosely. The
sleeves are kimona and three-quarter length,
completing blouse which is unusual even to
~the smallest detail and is priced only SIS.
There are others, varousy priced, which may
be more suited to your individual needs-but
whether it be tailored or deliberately trimmed
the blouse selected here will not be common
place in any way.

PAINTED PICTURE TOO BRIGHT.
Russians Thought They Could "Quit
and Go HOme.'
7be Pe,JSct Laxative

Washington, March 6.-Raymonl
Robins, Of Chicago, former head of
the American Red Cross mission in
Russia and one of those whose testi-
mony champions Of The Bolsheviki
government have insisted should bc
heard, testified to Gay before the
Senate committee Investigating law
less propaganda. HN said among
other things that before RussA
failed as an ally, Allied and Ameri-
can propagandists unwittingly con-
tributed largely to the downfall Of
Russian morale and what followed.
Posters were all over Russia, "
said Mr.. Robins, "telling how great
the Allies were and how powerful
America was. Some of the posters
said the United States would have
twenty thousand airplanes and four
million men in France. The Rus
slams, reading these declarations,
said to themselves, well, If all that
is true, we will 20 home for while. ;

r1ndn ln0tnrtaUy l"Si"tcA IN the dis
indignation nt The Russian morale,

effect from what it was intended to
CO."
Mr.. Robins described at the out
set OF his testimony conditions as he
found them when he went to Russia.
Even during the early part of the
Kerensky regime, he said, he became
conscious Of the fact that it was fail
ing because it did not pay enough
attention to affairs in the outlying
districts Of Russia. Kerensky's civil
power, the witness asserted, was in
efficient and the soviet control grew
mp naturally.
He discussed the economic paraly-
els in Russia, saying that it began
with the overthrow Of the Car and
increased down through the Keren-
sky regime.
Mr.. Robins said he was an anti
Socialist when he went to Russia and
that his experience there had not
changed his ideas in regard to Social
ism.

QUESTIONED BY CITIZEN.
Several Questions Asked Relative to
Local Matters In Walhalla.

1t Is not often that anonymous
communications get past the waste
basket in The Courier office. AS q
matter of fact, unsigned articles
almost invariably take the quickest
route to the ample hamper that sits
alongside the business desk. How
ever, there are exceptions to all rules,
and the communication below gets
past the 'anonym0us receptacle
by reason of the fact that the qucs-
tions asked pretain to matters Of
public interest. with which, to an
extent at least, the editor Of The
Courier Is familiar. and the conduct
of which he Is partially responsible
for. The questions submitted are
printed below. and the answers
thereto are given by me as Il member
of the Public Works Commission
and not as editor Of The Courier.
Tho Questions.
Mr. Stcck, Editor-Dear Sir:
would appreciate it very much If
you would publish and answer in
your paper the questions written be-
low:
|. Why is it that the town officials
and the light commission do not
make reports to the public?
2. Is it a fact that the town
officials and the light commissioners
get electric lights and power free Of
charge?
3. If SO, what legal or moral
right have these bodies to give to
themselves something that is not
theirs, but belongs to the public?
4. Why Is it that some people
have never paid over one dollar a
month for lights and power while
others havo meters and pay three to
four times as much?
Sincerely,
An Interested Citizen.

AFTER THE TAX DODGERS.
tlOpe to Got Much Property on Tax
Books OF State.

Columbia, March 6.-The State
IiA Commission is planning drive
- put on the State tax books auto
hobbies that nave heretofore es-
capped taxation and the property of
individuals that has not been re-
l"rned at proper valuation. With an
appropria tion twice as large as it
had last year the commission is
planning extensive work for this
year. 1t hopes to get thousands of
dollars worth Of property on the
Looks that has escaped taxation thus
far.
Regarding automobiles the COM
mission is planning to work in con-
junction with the State Highway
Commission with view to properly
assessing all of the automobiles Of
the State. The highway commission
will prepare a schedule, listing the
various makes and models Of auto
mobiles, SO that taxation can be
properly fixed from this schedule on
every car in the State. In addition,
the commission plans to go to GER
tain counties where there are lands
escaping taxation and to see that
these are assessed at proper valua-
tion.
The appropriation for the commits
sions work for the year 1919 totals
,l,I1 ~
rriated last year. or this amount,
$4,000 is for salaries Of members,
per diem, clerk hire. office expenses
and contingent fund. The remaining
$4,000 was appropriated to allow
the comm ission to discover and
have assessed for taxation property
heretofore escaping taxation, for
equalizing property and incidental
duties Of the commission
Gov Cooper Optimistic.
Governor Cooper returned from
the conference Of Governors and
mayors feeling very optimistic over
the general situation. The employ
ment problem was the chief topic dis
cnssed at the conference, and the
Governor says that the reports were
not at all discouraging. If there is
any unrest in the country it is not
aue to unemployment or low wages,
but merely to spirit of Bolshevism,
says the Governor Mr.. Cooper does
not think there Is any serious trou-
BILE ahead in South Carolina or else
where in the country. There may
be some agitation, but the safety Of
the country from uprisings of any
sort is assured.
