The cause for this sudden reversion
of sentiment could not be ascertain

Indered more surprising by the fact
that the lessers delegates on the

Uproar In Convention.
[By Carl D. Groat, United Press
Staff Correspondent
WEIMAR. June 12.-Eduard Bern
stein, member of the German peace
delegation, caused great excitement
in the convention of majority social
lists today when he declared that,
while the terms are harsh and some
unbearable, about nine-tenths OF them
come from necessity which we
admit"
The statement threw the conven-
ton into an uproar, and order was
restored with difficulty. A few Of
those present applauded, but by far
the greater number Kissed and
jeered. War Minister Noske and
several other party leaders openly
reproved Bernstein. Chancellor
Scheidemann, addressing the conven-
ton, said:
I'VE are defeated, yes, but we
shall go forward and upward to a
greater victory. Might cannot make
right 1t is our duty to re-establish
Belgium and France, but we refuse
to become wage slaves"
BY a greater victory" Scheide-
mann was assumed to mean inter
national socialism.
kolchak's Reply.
PARIS, June 13-Admiral Kolchak's
reply to the allies for conditional
recognition of his Omsk anti bolshe-
wiki government which left the big
five to accept his guarantees, contains
the following principal points 1t was
officially revealed today:
1.-Kolchak declares he will not
retain power zone day longer thae re-
CURED by the interests Of the coun-
try" and that his first thought when
the bolshevilsis are definitely crushet
will be to fix the date for the cleo
lions of the constituent assembly" He
says he will turn over to that body all
bis powers 'in order that 1t may free
ly determine the system OF govern
ment."
He points out, however, that he can
not recognize the constituent assem-
bly, of 1917 which was elected under
regime of bolshevik violence and
majority of whose members are now
In the sovietist ranks"
2.-Willingness is expressed to dis
cuss at once with all the powers all
international questions"

Almost Every Human Ailment
Traceable to Impure Blood.

You can not overestirnate the i'm
portance of keeping the blood free
of impurities. When you realize that
the heart is constantly pumping this
vital fluid to all parts of the body,
you can easily see that any impur-
ity in the blood will cause serious
complications.
Any slight disorder or impurity that
creeps into the blood is source of
danger, for every vital organ of the
body depends upon the blood supply
to properly perform its functions.
Many painful and dangerous dis
eases are the direct result of a bad
condition Of the blood. Among the

pose.
OTHER TOWNS IN COUNTY

John ]. Seerley, Jr., and Thompson
l.. Broohhart, district organizers FOL
the American Legion spent an hour
in Keokuk yesterday afternoon in con
ference with the temporary officers
OF the Keokuk post and made some
suggestions as to the future work anu
prospects of the organizations.
Keokuk was the first post estao-
lished in the district and the
chairmen expressed their gratifica-
ton at the progress that had been
made here.
The question arose concerning the
number Of posts that II would be ad-
yisable to establish in the county ana
the chairmen stated that 1t was the
general plan to encourage the estao-
lishment of as many posts as is possl-
BILE. That means that wherever fif-
teen men who are eligible live in q
town, that the town should have
post of the Legion.
Other Posts In Lee County.
At the present time there Is but
one post in Lee county and 1t was
suggested that Donnellson and Mon
trose might each easily have one If
they do not care to join with the keo-
kuk post. The local men will urge
that those towns send some represen-
tatives to the next meeting in keokuk
tc discuss the matter.
1t was also brought out that the tenn
porary organizations will have to
exist until after the national conven-
ton next November when the perma-
nent national organization will be Per
fected.
Chairman L. II. Vaughan has called
a meeting for next Tuesday night at
1880 o'clock at the court house. All
men who are eligible for membership
are urged to attend that meeting.
Fort Madison Lays Behind.
Fort Madison did not organize its
post of the Legion last night as was
expected, and to date Keokuk is the
only post in this part OF the state.
Only a few veterans were in at
tendance at the meeting called by T.
J. Brookhart for the formation of the
American legion there last hight,
many of them being attracted away
by moonlight excursion.
Steps were taken by DR.. r. S.
Reimers, chairman OF the upper
district OF Lee county, to organize a
post Of the legion there. Another
meeting will be called in the near
future when the legion will be organ
lied.
