MUST ALL TALK NICE
TO AN AMERICAN GIRL

Helena, Mont, Jan. 3.--When the
peace conference opens and Presi-
dent Wilson, or David Lloyd George
or Premier Clemenceau or the Ak
ound OF Swat or the grand vizier' Of
Guam desires to call somebody about
something on the house telephone in
the palace OF Versailles, he-or
they-will have to be very polite to
n pretty little girl from Helena, Mon
tana, U. $. A.
For the head central at the Yer
sailles palace, during the conference
will be Miss Merle Egan of this city.
Miss Egan volunteered early as
on exchange expert. She was tele-
phone girl here. Her knowledge OF
French stood her in good stead and
she has been for some weeks in the
central headquarters in Paris, at
tending to the calls OF the peace
conferees. Word now comes that
she has been appointed chief opera,
tor at Versailles during the meetings
there. :,

GERMANY IS NOW OUT
OF THE AIR FIGHTING

London, Jan. 3.-For the allies to
take 1000 airplanes from Germany,
in accordance with the terms of the
armistice, means militarily crippling
Germany in the air beyond hope of
early recovery, while immensely ad-
ding to the aerial strength of the al
lies, says an aviation expert. This
is emphasized, Me says. by the fact
that in five months Of the heaviest
air fighting of the war, Germany lost
in aerial combat with the British
alone something like 400 machines
To this total must be added the des-
truction wrought by the French and
American air services.
The expert asserts that for several
months before the armistice, Ger
many's capacity for producing air
planes was unequal to the task of re
placing her immense losses. This
he adds, was strikingly illustrated b,
the almost complete failure of hel
air arm during the final and mos
critical phase Of the war.

THE IMPERIAL PALACE
SUFFERS GREAT LOSS

Berlin, Jan. 3.-The damage To
the imperial palace in Berlin during
the recent excesses, by theft or van
dalism, is estimated to exceed ST.
100000. Five hundred persons i'm
plicated in the plundering which is
said to have been going on for the
past six weeks, have been apprehend-
ed and much Of the stolen property
recovered.
The former emperor's warden
succeeded in getting the bulk of the
imperial art treasures to a place of
safety after the flight of the emper-
or. The wardrobes of the former
emperor and his wife were almost en-
tirely denuded of their contents. In
one OF the former imperial dressing
rooms the old uniform of soldier
was found. Its owner had exchanged
his uniform for imperial raiment and
disappeared.

sTUFFs OUTBOUND
PIERS CROWDED WITH GOODS
Chief Causes Are Spreading Strike
Of Freight Handlers and Placing
OF Ships in Dry Dock

New York, Jan. 3.-Shipment OF
all classes OF freight, particularly
foodstuifs intended for the American
troops abroad and Europe's starving
people. were embargoed from other

owners to put vessels in dry dock
when the war strain relapsed, and
the decrease OF labor due to the hol-
idays.
