USING LABOR AS ANARCHY
TOOL, SAYS LLOYD GEORGE

London, Sept. 27.-'The precipi-
fancy of this action gives the i'm
preston of a deliberate and matured
intention on the part of some in
dividuals to seek a quarrel at any
cost" said Premier Lloyd George
in a statement today on the nation
wide railway strike.
TT has convinced me it is not
a strike for wages or better condi-
TONS" continued the premier. The
government has reason to believe
it has been engineered for some
time by a small but active body of
men who have wrought tirelessly
and insidiously to exploit the labor
organizations of this country for
subversive ends"

FOR SERBIAN RELIEF
Governor Endorses Movement for Aid
ing Stricken People.

lI& otTlChSH CODINs
Governor Allen, who knows first
hand many of the distressing condi-
tons which face the suffering of
eastern Europe, has given unstinted
commendation of the Serbian relief
movement. The Kansas governor de-
clares that Serbia is the Belgium of
the Balkans and asserts that its con-
'dition and misery is so distressing that
the true situation cannot be truly un-
derstood in prosperous America.
In a statement earnestly endorsing
the Serbian relief campaign, Governor
Allen said:
among the devastated areas Of eastern
Europe none suffered so severely as Serbia
the Belgium of the Balkans" Its ter
ritory was overrun by the Austrian and
Turk armies: its men killed; its women
outraged. and its children starved Cut off
from ready succor from the outside world,
its loss of life, its misery and war, exceeds
the conception of a great prosperous ma
tion like ours
THE Serbian Relief committee of Amer
lea is starting n campaign to save some Of
the fntherless children of that land and
urge upon the people of Kansas where
comforts beyond the widest dream Of Ser
bia dwell-a generous response"

HAT FIRST, THEN FORD
Topeka Woman Chases Lid While

SEEKING USES FOR LIGNITES
Federal Bureau of Mines VIII Make
investigation of What May Be
New Fuel Supply.

The bureau of mines will make an
investigation to determine the COM
mercal and economical value of lig
mites and the practicability of their
utilization in production of fuel oil,
gasoline substitutes, ammonia, tar,
solid fuel, gas for power and other pur-
poses, under the terms of a senate bill
which the house of representatives
adopted. An appropriation of $780,
600 was voted, 1t was argued that the
object Of the investigation is to dem
onstrate the commercial value of lig-
mite, which is one-third of the coal de-
poSits or the nation.
A vast volume of the deposits is on
government land, and Texas has ap-
proXimately 23,O0OOO0,0OO tons. The
official report says there is bituminous
coal in Texas, but not sufficient to sup
ply the railroads, and in urging the
passage of the bill Representative
Wingo of Arkansas told the house that
proper development of Ignite in Texas
with its full uses demonstrated would
save an annual fuel bill to the people

Professor Yamashita, who had taught
the japanese art to President Roose-
welt in Washington three times a
week for three years.
The president, he said, was his best
pupil, but also his most dangerous.
Very heavy, very strong, very impet-
uous, he always attacked as if he was
going to kill me. Oh, many bruises,
much worry, great trouble, assure
you.
81 could not tell him. 1t Is not jiu
iitsu to complain, but when he would
get me almost killed my trouble was
to save my life without hurting him.
No matter how madly he attacked I
could not hurt. could not kill the
president of the United States. That
was my point of honor. |. c.

CAR TO LIVE IN LEGEND
World May Look for All Sorts OF
Tales Concerning Autocrat Of
All the Russias.

The car of Russia is lost in legend.
Unless he shall again appear definite
ly in the flesh, so that his identity may
be positively established before all the
world the question of his fate will be
always disputed. He will take his
place in the list with the lost dauphln
Of France, who is supposed to have
lived a quiet life in America after be-
ing spirited away, and with John
Ord" a brother of Franz Josef, who
renowned his title and sailed away in
a vessel reported lost with all hands,
but who is supposed to be living in
cognito on an obscure, palm-shaded is
land, far from the reach of the tur-
moi that marked the last days of the
Hapsburg court.
AS a result of the conflicting stories
now being circulated regarding the
car the public mind is already diyd-
ed as to whether a bolshevik bullet
really ended his life or whether the
Count Tatichev, the emperor's person

votion to duty, died in his masters
stead. Only the clearing up of the
mystery can prevent the reports years
hence that in the death of some OBJ
scure old man of foreign appearance
the end has finally come to him who
was once Autocrat of All the Russias.
