D'ANNUNZIO CLEVER
BUT VERY HOMELY

BOSTON, Oct. I2.-"An undersized
little fellow, bald-headed, about If
ty-five years old, blind in one eye,
wears a monocle and has a lop-sided
face, with his chin pushed to one
side"
This is the description Lieut.. Patton
MacGilvary, former American aviator
in Italy. gives Of Gabrielle D'AnDunziO,
the Italian sOldier-poet, whose seiZ-
Ure of Fiume startled the world,
Lieutenant MacGilvary,l a native OF
California, was personally acquainted
with D'Annunzio.
But with all his distorted and mis-
shapen appearance D'Annunzio has a
delightful and charming personality
quickly added MacGilvary.
D'AnnUnzio is erratic and uncon-
ventional in almost everything he
says and does, declared the young
aviator.
"He is continually shocking and
angering many Of his friends as well
as his enemies. However, he fire.
qUently does things that excite their
envy and admiration. Before the war
he was an exile from Italy for sew
eral years on account of debt and
scandal, but he came back and took
such a daring part in affairs that he
entirely won over his countrymen.
His genial manner and his happy con-
versation would Captivate anyone.
'The great bombing raid in Vienna,
in September, 1918, during which
D'AnnunziO Uttered the Austrian
capital with pamphlets containing a
beautiful appeal for cessation of hos
tlities, written by himself, was en-
tirely CHARACTERISTIC Of the man."

CERMAN-RUSSLAN
ALLIANCE ALARMS

LONDON, oct. 12.-Concern over
the united operations OF German and
Russian troops in the Baltic region
had spread to the Estonions today.
Reports from Helsingfors declared
that after a conference OF army lead
ers, the Esthonian chief OF stan,
General Scots, had called upon the
government for further help against
the Russians, and the forces Of Gen
eral Won der Goltz. General Scots ad-
mitted the Russo-German co-opera-
ton was the cause Of great alarm in
the Baltic district, but predicted it
would be short-lived.
Advices from Copenhagen say IL is
denied IN German sources at Mitau
that any troops subservient to the
German government are participating
in the hostilities between the Rus
SLAMS and the Let's.
The occupation OF Riga BY advance
guards under Colonel Bermond. Rus
sian general cooperating with Won
der Goltz, was reported here today,
but lacked fGn confirmation.

CHARGES BRITISH
TO SEIZE BALTIC

BERLIN, oct. 12-Herr Cohn, an
Independent Socialist leader, today
claimed the British military mission
is backing the movement in west
Russia to take over the Baltic region
as soon as the Germans have evacu-
ated It
Cohn declared Russian agents were
operating with the British from a
house in WfIhelmstrasse leased from
former Foreign Minister Solf and To-
Gated near the foreign office. That Of
ice. he said, Should be aware Of the
situation"
He charged that General Malcolm,
Of the British mission, was co-operat-
ing with General BiskUpaski.
A statement from the British mis-
sion, answering the charges, said its
relations with the west Russian off,
clals concerned merely the removal Of
Russian prisoners, which was "en-
tirely legitimate"

BERLIN FINANCING
ARMY In RUSSIA

PARIS, Oct 12.-It is a fact Of the
gravest import Of which the world
is ignorant that the forces combat
ing Bolshevism under Won der GOltz
in the Baltic provinces, are actuated
from behind the scenes by a veritable
government whose secret capital is
in daily communication with Berlin.
This mysterious ministry is financed
and supported by the German govern
ment with the understanding that
once It succeeds in downing Boil
shevism Il will attack the KOlchak
forces, after which Russia will be
given over to German domination. II
has assumed the pompOus title "the
government Of western Russia"
The combine engineering this coup
from Berlin numbers three former
members OF the Duma, WUtz, Denit-
chenkO, and Tonmief, as well as Gen
erals SkOrapadzy and BiskUpsky.

 Karl began his saving some years ago and when the Treasury Depart. ment launched it's Thrift campaign he was not slow to see the advantages that investing his tin accumulations Tn War Savings and Thrift Stamps and has seen tLese baby bonds grow until they totaled 600 That Karl is patriotic and proud of his country's achlevements as we'll as thrifty is shown by the following letter that he wrote to Federal Director Wilson of the War Savings Organization at St. Louis under date of July 25:
