During tho War.
London, Oct. l8.-We should do
we'll to devote attention to the con-
ditions in the vast Pacific area and
the countries which form what may
be called its basin.
About a dozen years ago | called
attention to the important addition
that the completion of the Panama
canal would make to the naval power
Of the United States. This was con-
trasted with the relative naval in
significance of the KEEL canal.
The virtual increase of the Amer
lean navy was due to natural causes,
to the course of natural develop
ment, and was not and need not be
thought an indication of aggressive
designs. 1t is quite likely-indeed,
it is almost certain-that when the
American people decided to make
the Panama canal, not one in
hundred thousand of them ever
thought of naval power at all.
What they had in view was the
expansion of sea-borne commerce,

The Russians also expressed fear
that recognition of regional gov
|ernments would eventually lead to
the recc gnition of the bolsheviki,
who control large area in western
and central Russia.
Since he has been at Paris, Pres
dent Wilson, it was learned today,
has been kept advised Of conditions
in Siberia through agents sent to
Omsk. These agents penetrated
into European Russia as far as the
Siberian forces controlled the stu
alton and were understood to have
reported that the people, freed from
the, menace of the bolshevik ter
rorists, were firm in their opposi-
ton to bolshevism. Representatives
of allied governments sent into
Siberia were said to have made SIM
liar reports.
Other agents were dispatched to
southern and northern Russia and
officials said that their reports con-
tanned valuable information, not
only regarding the attitude of the
Russian people, but also as to the
economic conditions. The reports
have been made the basis for the
distribution of food and clothing as
we'll as munitions to the Russians
actively fighting the bolsheviki.

UNITED FRONT IN
RUSSIA aim OF
ALLIES POLICY
Proposal to Recognize Re-
gionaI Governments Rejected
as it Would Divide 0p-
p0nentS of B0ISheviSm.

Washington, April 20.-Decision
of the governments of Great Britain
France, Italy and the United States
to accord recognition to the Omsk
government as the de facto govern
ment of all non-bolshevik Russia
was reached after several other
plans had been discarded, it was
learned today from official sources.
Among the proposals rejected were
the sending of large allied forces
into southern and northern Russia
and Siberia and the recognition of
regional governments in various
parts of Russia controlled by Rus
slams oppo sing the bolsheviki.
Plans for sending armies into
Russia were disapproved with little
discussion, it was said, but the pro-
posal to recognize the regional gov
ernments was rejected only after
vigorous protests. This plan in
cluded recognition of the Omsk
government, that of Denikine, the
government of the north at Arch
angel and the establishment of a
number of small Cossack leaders
on the Don, at Orenburg and in the
erals.
When this matter was presented
to the Russian representatives in
Paris and London they instantly
objected on the ground that a
united front must be presented
against the bolsheviki in the east.

Has Scheme for Making
CoIors Change Their Hue

After a year of experiments, P.
J. Thede, $40 South Thirteenth
street, at one time a student at
Kiel Tuebingen universities, be-
lieves he has perfected for COM
mercial purposes coloring which
will change.
By blowing on the color, which
has been applied to ordinary paper,
it changes by stages to an entirely
different hue. About three minutes
later, through chemical reaction,
the color becomes the same as be-
fore tie blowing process.
This chemical action is different
from that involved in invisible inks,
and according to Mr.. Thede, has
never before been perfected. Patents
have been applied for.

Nothing substantial stands imme-
diately in the way of production by
brewers OF beer Containing 2 "a per
cent of alchohol, since the revenue
bureau has decided to issue revenue
stamps required for regular beer to
these brewers. This decision is not
to be taken as indicating the final
attitude of the bureau, however, it
was explained today. Formally, the
bureau still holds that beer contain

however, pending an opinion from

Why Lillian Was Laboring Under
a Strain.

ly. OF all the queer situations which
had resulted from Lillan's tangled
life this seemed to me the most BIZ
zarre.
My friends forehead furrowed
into a frown. which however, was
evidently involuntary, for she ban
ished it the next instant.
"Of course, | do not know that
finding Harry was his reason" she
said, "but am led to believe it from
things he has said and written to
me. And then the fact that only a
few days after the disappearance of
Dicky and Harry behind the lines
he got himself transferred to the
corps of entertainers with the army
of occupation indicated very strong
ly that he had some idea of the sort
in mind"
did he write you that he was 60
ing into Germany" / asked.
NO." she returned. "The last let
ter l received from him was written
weeks before that. But" she hest
tated oddly-"I was uneasy-and-
from another source / learned that
from the moment he heard the re-
port of the disappearance of Dicky
and Harry he moved heaven and
earth to get chance to go into Ger

Troubled Eyes.
The word uneasy" seemed to
linger in my ears. |, too, had feel
ing Of uneasiness over this queer ex-
petition of Robert Savarin's, for
there came to me again--as it had
come many times before-the vision
of Robert Savarin as ! once had seen
him, tense, white-lipped, vowing
never to forget the indignities which
Harry Underwood had made Lillian
endure.
l wondered if Lillian suspected
the fanatical intensity of this feel
ing toward her erstwhile husband
which the devoted artist possessed.
And then, as l remembered the tor
tured eyes l had seen beneath her
volatile mask of the afternoon |
realized not only that she must sus-
pect, but that she in all probability
had far more knowledge of the
artists mental processes than l.
With troubled eyes | watched
her as she paced up and down, her
arms hanging loosely at her sides,
but her fingers clenched in her
palms. l knew that she was con-
stunned with emotions that would
have beaten to the ground weaker
woman, but l also knew that the
rapid, sinuous pacing was my
friends invarable method of get
ting herself under control, and |
waited silently, patiently until she
should of her own volition turn to
me.
At last, as her pacing brought her
near the cleverly concealed wall
safe in which she kept her most
valuable things she suddenly
swerved, uncovered and unlocked it,

My Heart and My Husband
Adele Garrisons New Phase of
Revelations of a Wqfe

ed paper. With it in her hand she
came back to me and threw it into
my lap.
The Answer.
"Read that, Madge," she said
tensely, "and you'll understand why
sometimes feel that l cannot
bear this suspense which constantly
hangs over me-.
She seated herself in a chair near
me, and | saw her lay her hands
upon the arms, press her finger tips
tiercely against the polished wood.
With my own fingers trembling |
opened the sheet of letter paper, a
page from the cheap tablets furnish
ed to the soldiers, and read the few
words it contained:
MY Dear: There is, of course,
no appeal from your decision. bow
my head to it, realizing either you
must have been mistaken in what
you told me before l came over, or
that l misunderstood your meaning.
If you had ever really experienced
the feeling you professed at that
time you could not, even for the
sake of your fetch duty, so deny
yourself and me now. There is only
one service / can render you. From
what | have learned the world is
not safe for you at present. 1t never
will be safe as long as one condition
prevails. To make the world safe
for you, my dear, is my one purpose
now, but in carrying out that pur
pose | shall lose my chance Of ever
seeing you again. Faithfully,
ROBERT"
| read the letter twice, laid it in
my lap and stared at Lillian.
what do you make of it," she
asked.
Il think his reason has given way
again." l returned promptly. This
isn't the letter of sane man."
Il know" she said, YEARLY, but
he is sane enough to be responsible.
Oh, MadgeP she put her hands to
her forehead despairingly. Il don't
know what to do-where to turn.
1t is months since | have heard.
And with that obsession in Roberts
brain-that he must rid me of Har-
ry-how do / know what terrible
thing may not have happened out
there"
Betty's knock sounded upon the
door. Lillian motioned to me to
open it. AS I obeyed her / realized
that the door bell had rung min
ute or two before, but that we had
paid no attention to it. The door
opened at my touch, revealing Bet
tvs smiling black face, and behind
her, almost as white as if he were
his own ghost summoned by our
conversation, stood Robert Saverin.

HOW TO ENFORCE
DRY Law NOW IS
VITAL QUESTION

AverSe to Undertaking
lob; Has Force of
Secret Agents.

Washington, April 20.-The De-
partment of justice is not averse to
accepting the functions of enforcing
the wartime prohibition measure
when it goes into effect July |, it
was learned today. Consequently,
it is expected proposal that the
enforcement be entrusted to this
agency will be submitted to Pres

rope.
Discussion of where the power to
enforce prohibition may be lodged
was prompted here by the recent an
nouncement of International Rev.
enue Commissioner Roper that his
bureau had not the force to police
the nation adequately after July /.
Attorney General Palmer has not
stated officially that he will well
come the additional duties of en-
forcing prohibition, but it is said
that his advisers in the Department
of Justice have told him that enough
secret agents are available to take

AMERICANS ate
more MEAT and
FED WORLD, TOO
Increase of IT'S Pounds Per
Person Is Shown in the
United States Since
War Began.

The amount of meat consumed
per person in the United States now
approximates 1885 pounds yearly
an increase of us pounds per per
son since the war began.
These figures include dressed beef,
veal, pork, mutton and goat and
extra-edible parts such as livers,
kidneys, hearts, etc. Lard is in
cluded under pork.
Records available today show that
per capita consumption, after rising
from l76 pounds in 1914 to 1916
pounds in 1916, dropped to 1854
pounds in 1917, the year this coun-
try entered the war. In 1918 pro-
duction increased "a per cent--from
less than 19,000,000000 to more than
23,000,00O,000 pounds of meat AS
compared with 1917, while consump-
ton per person increased in the
same period only II per cent.
These new figures, which are
based on government reports just
collated by the Bureau of Public
Relations, American Meat Packers
association, are thus explained by
M. R. Murphy of the Cudahy Pack
ing company of this city:
AT first glance it you'd appear
that the American people failed to
respond to the requests of Mr..
Hoover and the Food administra-
ton. This, however, was not the
case. What really happened was that
large numbers of people especially
the weather. classes, did cut down
on meat consumption, but that these
savings were more than offset by in
creased consumption on the part of
large numbers of war workers whose
heavy laborers not only called for
more meat. but who likewise had the
money with which to buy it.
THE important feature of these
recent calculations is that during
the war-from 1914 to 1918 inclu-
sive-meat production increased
5,288,03l 900 pounds, or more than
% per cent, as compared with the
population increase of about &c per
cent. That is where the American
people did themselves credit Every
