John A. Embrey, Former
Consul at Omsk. Tells Of
Bolshevik Terror.

First-hand evidence Of the reign
OF terror by the Bolsheviki in Rus
sia was given by John A. Embrey,
formerly United States consul at
Omsk. in an address at the First
Congregational Church last night.
Mr.. Embrey expressed the opinion
that the situation will be remedied
only by the triumph of the forces
of law and order under Admiral
kolchak. He showed lantern slides
OF atrocities committed by the Boil
shevik army.
'The Bolshevik army is largely
made up of gangs Of criminals" he
said. Amy Intelligent criminal who
has the ability to lead a body of
other criminals joins the Bolsheviki,
and they have been attracted from
SO terrible that ] do not believe s
per cent Of the inmates Of Sing Sing
could perpetrate them"
Officers of government are chosen
he said. by popular acclaim from the
most successful of the "soapbox'
type OF orators. and they have power
to put to death. without trial, any
one whom they consider a counter
revolutionist.
Other atrocities described were
the killing of hostages and able
bodied young men in the captured
towns. enslaving of women as was
done by the Germans. cruelty to the
aged, destruction OF books and
schools. and Dissertation of churches
Mr.. Embrey lauded the Siberian
soldiers.

DIR. SHAW CAVE
LIFE TO LEAGUE
Stricken with Pneumonia
On Trip Pleading for
Permanent Peace.

New York. July Am impas-
stoned plea for support of tho
league Of nations was DR.. Anna
Howard Shaw's last message to the
women of America. DR.. Shaw took
an active part in the campaign, of
the League to Enforce Peace in be :
half OF ratification of the league of
nnations covenant. In May she made
a speaking tour with President Taft
and other advocates of the covenant.
She was stricken with pneumonia at
Springfield. ILL.,. when the trip was
half over.
In the appeal to women. entitled
What the War Meant to Women"
and which probably was her last
work before the relapse which
caused her death yesterday, DR..
Shaw. apparently feeling that the
end of her own life was near, wrote:
Everybody must die sometime
and it does not make as much differ
ence. perhaps. as to the number of
days we live as 1t does TO the man.
ner in which we live the days we do
live"
/, Some of the most striking SEN
tences in the appeal are:
The best thing that has been given
US. and the only thing we have be-
fore US, Is this league of nations
We have no other league of nations
We have only this one. We must
take this one or no one can tell what
will come. We have no midway
point. We have no purgatory. We
have to choose either Heaven or He'll
We must take it or we must reject
1t.
"Oh, we women. the mothers OF the
race have given everythins. have
suffered everything, have sacrificed
everything. and we come to you now
and say. The time has come when
we will no longer sit quietly by ana
bear and rear some to die at the will
of a few men. We will not endure
it, We will not endure it! We de-
mand that either you shall do some
thing to prevent war. or that we shall
be permitted to try to do something
ourselves"

HECHT CO.BUYS
TWO PROPERTIES
Will Enlarge Present Store
To Care for Largely
Increased Business.

In line with its policy of develop
ment and expansion, and with the
vision of far-sightedness which
has always characterized the
growth of this concern. The Hecht
Co.. through Shannon and Luchs,
realtors, has acquired the Schubert
Garrick Theater and Federal once
Building. both at Seventh and F
streets northwest.
1t is understood that the consid-
Grafton for the transfer of these
holdings was more than s250,000.
In acquiring this property. which
adjoints it's present establishment,
The Hecht Company indicates its
conviction and belief in the future
of this part of Seventh street as the
logical shopping center, and that
the business trend is in this gen.
eral direction rather than north OF
G or west of Fourteenth streets.
There are a few leases yet to ex-
pire on the property, but the pres
ent future plans of The Hecht Co.
include the erection of a modern
fireproof building which will cor
respond to its present quarters.
With the acquired property the
store will have a frontage on
Seventh street of 225 feet and on F
street, 125 feet.
Jack Edwards, resident manager of
the Shubert Garrick. announced last
night that the purchase would not in
terfere with the regular winter en-
gasements scheduled for this theater.

that the Siberian army is evacuating

OF the southern part of the Omsk gov

Ufa June L.
Swedish press reports received at the
department say the Bolshevfks are

men able to carry arms are being
called out. Officers are given impor-
tant posts only when they agree that
tkeir family shall bear consequences
OF their possible treason. Civilian
passenger traffic in or out Of Petro.
grad is reported to have been prohib-
ited.
Special Bolshevik permission is re-
quired even for officials to travel.
Boishevik papers are demanding that
Petrograd be held as long as possible,
supporting Trotsky's opinion that
Petrograd is the only link between the
Bolsheviks in Russia and "Europe's
revolutionary proletarians."
The Moscow industrial district, the
report stated, again has been ravaged
by strikers led by men from the Sor-
novo works.
