Crime Wave in Paris Is Traced to
Apaches Wearing United States
Army Uniform.

Paris, Feb. IAN investigation
shows that Apaches of all nationalities
dressed in American uniforms were
mainly responsible for the acts of VIC
lence which have caused broadcast
publicity TO be given to an alleged
American crime wave in Paris.
1t was further ascertained that as
saults and hold-ups are infnitesimal
in number as compared with the pub.
lished figures of the crime wave, ex-
listing nearly exclusively in the vivid
Imagination of sensational local news
papers.
An opportunity was presented to
verify at police headquarters the fig
ures respecting crimes during last
December. Thirty-four murders
charged to Americans were discredit-
ed and dwindled to two; 244 hold-ups
and assaults were reduced by 80 per
cent
There have been numerous fistic en-
counters, however, but they were most
lys between Americans, old-fashioned
rough and tumble braws in which ar
rests are rarely made in American
cities, where for the most part the
pugnacious individuals would merely
be requested by the police to go home
or humorous policeman would advise
them 'if you want to fight, go to
Europe"

BRITISH LABOR MENACE
System Said to Be Endangered by
BoIsheviSt Element.
Party Official Fears Present Radical
Movement May Revoiutionize
Politics.

London, Feb. 1.-The Bolshevist
element, alleged to be responsible for
the present general strike in Great
Britain and Ireland, may succeed in
completely overthrowing the present
labor system, British Labor party Of
ficials declared. They also expressed
the fear that labor's share In national
politics might be revolutionized.
1--WE believe the shop steward sys-
tenn, which is similar to the soviets, is
beginning to dominate labor and may
succeed In overthrowing regularly
elected union and Labor party off,
cials," Dr. Marion Phillips, Labor
party official, says.
Many of the shop stewards and
their followers engaged in the present
strikes believe the workers own the
industries in which they labor. There
is a strong possibility that the shop
steward system eventually will be In.
fused into the present national labor
organization.
Whether 1t will finally be incorpor'
ated in or will entirely supplant the
present system, we do not know.

ACTOR NAT GOODWIN is DEAD
General Breakdown Causes Death Of
Famous Thespian.

New York, Feb. 1-Nat G. Good
win, famous actor, died at his apart
ments in the Hotel Claringe here, from
complication of diseases. He had
been ill only few days. Death re-
suited, physicians said, from a gen.
eral breakdown which came after an
operation in which his right eye was
removed about year ago.
Mr.. Goodwin was 81 years old, born
in Boston in 1857. He was married
five times; his latest wife, Marjorie
Moreland, announced her own third
engagement only few days ago. Mr..
Goodwin's other wives were: Miss
Eliza Wethersby, who died in 1887;
Miss Nellie Baker Pease, Miss Max
inc Elliott and Miss Edna Goodrich.
Mr.. Goodwin made his debut as an
actor in Boston, playing with Stuart
Robson in "The Law in New York"
in 1873.

Germany Will Be Allowed Six
Million Bushels of Bread
StuffS a Month.
CASH BASIS REQUIRED
Herbert c. Hoover Cables From Eu-
rope That All Surplus American
Wheat Can Be Disposed
of Abroad.

New York, Feb. 1.--Germany will
be allowed about 100000 bushels OF
breadstuffs a month, mostly from the
United States, under the general food
program outlined by the Allies, if she
can pay for it, according to detailed
statement of foreign grain require
ments cabled by Herbert G. Hoover
to julius II. Barnes, president of the
United States Grain corporation, and
made public here.
Between now and July /, the state
ment said, France and Italy will take
S0,000,000 bushels of wheat and -four
from the grain corporation, while the
Allied governments will take also
about 100000 bushels of oats.
II restrictions are removed on cereal
imports to European neutrals they will
reuire about 60,000,000 bushels Of
wheat, rye or barley, in grain or flour
to bring their bread consumption to
normal, mostly from the United States.
Can Dispose of All Wheat.
"As we have already shipped from
the United States over 10000, 900
bushels of wheat or -four, the Grain
corporation viii easily dispose Of all
wheat, with perhaps a small carry
over, IL any, at the next harvest" the
cable said.
"The basis of price of all these
wheat sales included not only the
basic prices paid to the farmer, but
handling and storage expenses of the
Grain corporation. The Grain cor.
poration is, therefore, in a strong po-
sition because farm sales are about
equal to its stock on hand and it's
available s150,000,000 capital and the
corporation will emphatically maintain
the 1918 guaranty for which purpose 1t
was created.
Pork Products for Germany.
"The Supreme Food council, under
military advice, has granted Germany
the right to import 150,000,000 pounds
of pork products per month as soon
as she arranges payment and ship
ping. This and neutral demand should
overtake any surplus Of these prod
ucts in two months after being start.
ed; in fact, by peace there will be a
shortage in pork production.
'The re-establishment of new mar
kets and normal trading during armis.
tice is slow and difficult. In order
to get over many of the difficulties
of trading in fiours and wheat during
the period of the armistice, the Grain
corporation is establishing stocks for

Plain Statemen Reported Made
Before Pea Council by
American keCutive.
CLEAR REAfF|RMATI0N
Asserts He Will Nor Be Party to Civ
ing German Colonies to Powers
and Then Guarantee Title by
League of Nations.

Paris, Feb. 1-When the supreme
It had before it the plain statement
made by President Wilson at the pre-
vious session So particular was Mr..
Wilson to have an exact record Of
what he had said. that soon after en-
tering the meeting he summoned one
OF his personal stenographers and kept
him at his side during the session.
What he said did not appear in the
official communique, nor has it been
disclosed with any official authority,
but it may be stated that it was very
clear reaffirmation of the principles for
which the president has previously
contended
Uses Strong Language.
In phrases, stripped of diplomatic
niceties, it is understood Mr. Wilson
told the members of the supreme coun-
Gil he would not be party to division
of Germany's colonial possessions
among the powers which now hold
them and then become partly to a
League of Nations, which, in effect,
would guarantee their title. There
are inferences that the President even
referred to peace of loot"
The net result of the last two days
Of discussion on the colonial question,
in the opinion of many Americans
here, has been to clear the atmos-
phere generally and to force a clear
definition of aims on all sides.
The most formidable opposition to
Wilson's plans has come from Premier
Hughes of Australia, who has main.
tanned that anything short of outright
annexation of New Guinea to Australia
might endanger the friendly feelings
toward the mother country.
This, however, is in process of being
reconciled by concessions on details
but in any event the opposition is con.
sidered to have lost its effectiveness
since the British home government and
South Africa are favorable to the new
colonial policy.
Two Replies From Russia.
The peace conference so far has had
two replies to it's invitation to the
various Russian governments for a
conference at the Princes Islands
In one of these the government OF
north Russia formally refuses to meet
with the bolsheviki The Omsk gov
ernment, under Admiral Kolchak
while less categoric in it's reply, ex
presses strong reserve.
Nothing official in connection with
the invitation has been received from
the Russian soviet government.
The war council considered eco
nomic and financial questions and the
subject of raw materials. The senti
ment was favorable to the relaxation
of the blockade so far as it concerned
southeastern Europe, including the
Balkans and Austria Hungary.

Washington, Feb. 1.-The Ameri-

ber; $55,000,OOO less than in Novem-

This includes $7,S75 100000 loaned to

Allies From the same British source
also comes the estimate that the war
has cost Germany $3S,750, 100000, OF
which $2,250000 was loaned to its
allies.
Payments Being Made Now.
Officials explained that this was not

tion of war materials is continuing at
the tremendous rate of several months
ago. Manufacturers are now present
ing their bills and receiving payment
for materials delivered long ago, how
ever and this keeps up expenses.
This liquidation of war contracts tc
be given added impetus after passage
of pending legislation, providing foI
valuation of informal orders, is ex

New Loan Essential.
Payments to the Allies fell to about
$190,000,000 in January. When these
loans were first instituted the govern
ment contemplated turning over about
$500, 100000 credits to the Allies every
month, but actual payments ordinarily
ran around S3s0,000000 monthly.
The treasury cited figures on the
