Masonic Craft Gains
New Heir to Throne

London, May Silt was 4 real
red letter day for English Masons
when the prince Of Wales took the
degree of entered apprentice in the
Household Brigade lodge, thereby
following in the footsteps not only
Of his distinguished grandfather, Ed
ward VII, but of nearly every mon
arch of Great Britain since Fred
erick, prince of wales and father
of King George III. So, with the
accession of the young and popular
prince the craft once more gains an
heir to the throne.
Naturally no details of the cere-
mony, which occurred in the Ma
sonic room of Princes restaurant,
on Piccadilly, were allowed to be-
come public other than that the
duke of Connaugh, brother Of the
late King Edward and Grand Mas
ter of England since the accession
to the throne, of Edward VII, acted
as master. Every member of the
Household Brigade lodge is of dis
tinguished rank. Its founders, who
obtained their charted in 1896,
were all connected with the royal
household, and many of its men,
bers today occupy distinguished po-
sitions in the kings household.
It is said that the prince of Wales
signified his desire to follow his
grandfather into the craft when he
was still student at Oxford, but
the coming of the war postponed
his iaitiation unt2 tie prsss

those who knew him best and were
with him most frequently were aware
of the fact that disease of some kind
was preying upon him. Father Far
reilly was remarkable man and his
work during quarater Of a century

succeeded in his church work, but es-

Paris, Nov. 26.-Slrprise at the de-
parture of Doctor Simson, head Of the
plenipotentiaries sent by Germany tor
this city In connection with the arnlis-
tice protocol, was expressed in a note
delivered to Kurt Lersner. head of
the German delegation at Versailles,
by the supreme council.
If the treaty of Versailles Is not put
into force December /. the note adds.
the responsibility will lie with the Ger
man government, as the departure OF
Doctor Simson inevitably delays fur
Their conferences which must he held.
Doctor Lersner is asked to state what
are the intentions Of the German gov
eminent.
Charges Allies With Bad Faith.
1t was learned that Lersner sent a
letter to Secretary Dutasta Of the
peace conference to the effect that the
head Of the plenipotentiaries had be-
come convinced, after the consulta-
lions he had In Paris, that he must
consult the German government re-
garding the protocol, especially as the
national assembly would have to APP
prove the decisions reached.
The Lersner letter protested against
the question Of the repatriation OF
prisoners again being bound up with
that Of putting the treaty into effect,
1t being pointed out that the allied gov
eminent had previously separated
these issues. II the promise Of France
was not kept. the letter declared, Ger
man public opinion would not have
confidence In any further promise
France might make. The letter la
this connection drew attention to nm
article published recently In the Press
de Paris on the surrender OF war Grim
inals.
Doubt o. cermanys Sincerity.
Premier Clemenceau, as president OF
the peace conference, replied saying
that Lersner's letter made him ques-
ton II the treaty could be put into
force on December /, owing to the
German governments action, although
the government had known the con-
tents Of the protocol since Novem-
Der 1.
4 The delay said NJ. Clemenceau,
would be regrettable. as 1t might raise
doubts OF the sincerity OF Germany's
Intentions regarding the execution OF
the engagements made in the arms
tice and the peace treaty.
Says France Broke No Promise.
Baron Lefsher, NJ. Clemenceau
continued, was incorrect in saying that
France had made or broken a prom
Use. Fhe supreme councils agreement
to the release Of German prisoners
was conditional on fulfillment by Ger
many Of the terms OF the armistice ;
Germany has only to sign the proto-
col and repatriation would commence.
NJ. Clemenceau adds a postscript ex-
pressing surprise at the departure with
Simson of the experts who had ar
rived three days before to regulate all
questions. This, NJ. Clemenceau as
serted, was only explainnble as the
sign OF the wish of Germany to delay
definite ratification
Roumania is to be given another
chance to sign the Austrian peace
| treaty, a limited period being named
within which she may attach her sig
nature. Permission to sign Is also to
be given Serbia.

 Shortage

New York, October 10.-Heavily in creased use of sugar in candy, soft drinks, ice cream and other luxuries in the United States during the first months of 1919, it was announced here today by the United States sugar equal
 ization board, means that such oyerin- diligence in sweets must now be cur
 tailed in some sections of the east for
 the next three months
 George A. Zabriskie, president of the
 board, in a statement to the press,
 declared that although the talk of
 shortage persists, it was a fact that
 from last January to September, inclu-
 sive, 500.000 tons or IS per cent, more
 sugar had been delivered to American
 consumers than for the same period
 of 1918 The normal increase in con-
 sumption for the period named, he
 said. would have been four per cent. The west should secure imm ediate
 relief from the harvesting of an ay-
 craze crop, said the statement, which will be in full swing within a week. The Louisiana supply of 100000 tons available after November l. while dis appointing. will serve to supply the south until the new west Indian crop is ready next January. The east is dependent, however, 1t was said, on the old Cuban supply, and Conservation" ]" therefore would have to be practiced for time in this section of the cotn. try.N To meet the condition in the east Frank C.

 After october 15. and until January i 1. it was said. all territory west of Pittsburs and Buffalo and north of the Ohio river will have to depend upon the sugar beet producers. Deliverie es of sugar to the trade in the east it was said, during October.
