officer named Flnck and German
agent named Louis Guasparc.
Funck was a major in Austrian In

Paris in the employ of bank until
July, 1915. when he departed suddenly
for Barcelona, where he met Baron
Won Roland head of the German spy
service in Spain. His sudden de-
parture from Paris aroused suspicion,
and investigation proved that he al
ways had been a spy.
1t was proved that Funck gave the
Germans information as 20 the points
where the shells from the Germans
Big Bertha, fell in Paris and en-
abled the Germans to make rectitica-
tions in their aim. He was captured
as he crossed the bridge at Vidassoa

daye in France TO get a parcel. He
was court and condemned to
death in June, 1919.

mand the exclusion of Socialists from

appreciate your courtesy in cx-
tending the invitation and would be

Sltlon or the merits of any particular
Sociallstlc measure upon which feel
competent to express an op nioN worthy

subject OF debate
II am thoroughly opposed to the idea
ihat the Individual ownership of prop

Ne.u pE the state and adm in stored for

am convinced that under such system
either the precious capital Of the world
would shrink in quantity or that it
would not be increased to anything
like the same extent us under the pres
cnt system. There are to-day and al
ways VIII be g!aring inequalities. but
tney are unavoidable consequences Of
human infirmities, and the best we can
hope to do is to reduce these ineouali-
ties a much as possible
w hilc my views on the subject of
socialism are very strongly held, I
realize that our form of government
would be a mere farce if we denied
represented in legislative halls to
persons du Y elected by their respective
const ltuencics merely because their po
iiNcai opinions did not agree with ours

Coal Frozen in Yards

Despite the difficulty in moving coal
from the yards and railroad terminals
TO piers about the harbor, the Cunard
Line has not changed the new sailing
schedule Of the Mauretania, which is
expected to depart for Southampton at
noon tomorrow. She was originally
scheduled to leave on Friday.
No coal was delivered to the ship
yesterday but it is expected that
barses will be on hand this morning
and that the starboard and port bunk
ors will take on their supply stimuli
taneously.
"trhe coal is on hand in this port. :"
said representative of the line last
night, "but it is frozen in the cars in
the railway terminals and has to be
chopped before it can be handled. We
expected coal Saturday morning, but
the shippers were unable to move it.
The Mauretania's supply probably will
be Forthcoming tomorrow morning and
we will be able to coal her in twenty
