Naval Clemency Board
Reviews Courts Martial

Washington, July ia clemency
board, consisting of Secretary DAN
iels, Read Admiral George r. Clark,
Judge Advocate General, and Com
mander Frank b. Freyer, Assistant
Judge Advocate General, now is en-
gagged in reviewing court-martial
sentences imposed during the war.
Many punishments, involving prison
terms or fines, are being mitigated
or set aside by the reviewing board.
The board found in many cases that
punishment, while we'll deserved in
time of war. might be regarded as
too evere now hat 'hostilities have
ceased.
Secretary Daniels announced to-
day that not a man was executed
as the result of naval courts-martial
during the war. In several cases, he
said, courts-martial recommended
the death penalty, but in each the
reviewing board committed the SEN
tence to Imprisonment.

Alkali in Soap
Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully.
If you want to keep your hair look
ing it's best. Most soaps and prepar-
ed shampoos contain toe much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
Just ordinary mulsifed cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless). and Is
better tina the most expensive. soap
or anything else o can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the "a and scalp thorough
~. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. 1t makes an
abundance of rich. creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dust. dirt. dandrutf
quickly and evenly, and 1t leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and
easy to manage
You can get mulsifed cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap. and
a few ounces will supply every mem
Der of the family for months.

To Overcome Richness,
Tan, Freckles, Blotches

II your skin is unduly Redeemed,
tanned or freckled, just dab a little
pure m~ercolized wax on the face
and allow it to remain over night.
When you wash off the wax in the
morning, fine, flaky, almost invisible
particles of cuticle come with it. Re-
peating this daily, the entire outer
skin is absorbed. but so gradually
and gently, there's not the slightest
hurt or inconvenience. Even the
stubbornest freckles are affected. The
underlying skin which forms the new
complexion is so clear. fresh and
youthful-looking. you'll marvel at
the transformation. It's the only
thing known to actually discard an
aged, faded, muddy or blotchy COM
pleXion. One ounce of m~ercolized
wax, ~procurable at any drugstore, is
sufficient in most cases.

runner was safe and Corners flied
out to the pitcher. Hollands then
singled to center, scoring Williams

ARMED FORCES
OF BOLSHEVIKI
NEAR MILLION
lBY Associated Pressl

Berne, April 4.-The armies under
the command of the Bolshevik gov,
ernment in Russia comprise approx
mately 100000 men, but only about
100000 of them are actual combat
ants, according to information re-
ceived here from sources usually con-
sidered reliable
These forces are divided into fiji
teen armies of 10000 combatants
each. Twelve of them are described
as completely organized. Each army
consists Of two or three divisions and
each division of two, three or four
regiments. The number of officers
and men in each regiment varies
from few hundred to two thousand.
The First Army is under command
of General Michael Touhatchevski,
who, until the Bolshevik revolution
took place, was a simple lieutenant in
education is far from complete, but
of officers who formerly belonged to
the Russian General staff, so that
they compensate for the deficiencies
of their commander in chief
The Second Army is headed by a
well-organized general staff which
includes three colonels who formerly
belonged to the Russian general
staff.
The commander -in-chief of the
Third Army is an individual who, up
to the time of the Bolshevik revolu-
ton, was sergeant in one of the
regiments of Siberian infantry. He
also is supported by general staff
composed of former Russian staff of
ficers.
The fact that so many officers of
the former Russian army have con-
sented to serve with the Bolsheviki
is one of the worst features of the
situation in Russia Without them
the Bolsheviki would have been un-
able to organize such military forces
as are now at their disposal, and
their dictatorship, based solely on
violence, would have been ended long
ago. The artillery equipment of the
Bolshevik armies is. declared to be
very incomplete A division has, on
an average, from five to eight guns
Munitions are said to be scarce and
their supply is deficient Munitions
for the infantry also are running
short.
