SEEK FATHER OF
WAR BABY HERE
Friends of Un-wed Mother in Germany
Comb Kenosha for Sire of
Nameless Son.

Somewhere in Germany is name
less child supported by a mother who
is now an outcast; the father of the
baby is believed to be somewhere in
Kenosha. The affair became generally
known today when Milwaukee women,
friends of the little mother over there,
came to Kenosha in search of the lad
in khaki who loved and left her.
The romance-one of the sort that
always ends in remorse- began in 1918
when eight American soldiers, one Of
them Kenoshan, were billeted in a
village near Coblenz. In the family,
with which they lived, were father,
mother, two sons, an older daughter
and "little sister" who was a fav-
orite with the Yankees.
After the Americans had left Ger
many and were safely back in the
States the little sister" became a
mother. Her parents Immediately dis
owned her, excluded her from her
home and left her to care for her baby
the best she could. She has tried re-
peatedly to inform the father Of the
child of her dilemma but has failed to
find any trace of him. In despair she
has written to friends in Milwaukee
who knew another soldier who was
among the eight billeted in her fathers
home. The latter believes that the
war baby's father is in Kenosha and
that he will do what he can for its
mother as soon as he learns Of the
tragedy which has overtaken her.
1t is thought by men who know the
ex-soldier in question that he is a man
Of honor and that he will not allow a
girl in Germany to support her child
and his and bear alone the suffering
that he caused her.

WOMAN HURT
in AUTO SPILL
Mrs. Mary Pekonen Injur-
ed in Auto Accident on
Sheridan Road.
THREE ESCAPE INJURY

Mrs. Mary Pekonen, 1907 Mc9lister
street, Waukegan, was severely injur-
ed when an automobile driven by her
son Walter Pekonen, also of Wauke-
gan, turned turtle on South Sheridan
road on Saturday afternoon. The wo-
man had her left shoulder broken and
suffered very severe bruises and cuts.
She was taken to Waukegan to the Nc
Alister hospital later in the afternoon.
Pekonen, his little daughter and man
passenger in the automobile whose
name could not be secured escaped
with only slight injuries. The auto
mobile in which the members of the
party were riding was completely
wrecked.
Tried to Pass Another Car.
Pekonen was driving north toward
Kenosha along the Sheridan Road and
was coming at good rate Of speed
although it is declared that he was not
exceeding the speed limit. Just in
front Of the farm home of Henry
Owens, three miles south of the city,
Pekonen attempted to pass another
automobile. He slowed down his car
little but as he was passing the au
tomobile he turned out little too far
and the car left the road. Before
Pekonen could right the car he had
hurdled the ditch at the side of the
road and went over fence into the
potato patch on the Owen farm. The
four passengers were buried under
the debris of the car and it was re-
garded as miracle that all Of them
were not seriously injured.
Motorcycle officer Nicholas Otto
aided in picking the injured people
from under the debris Of the wrecked
automobile.
Woman Was Unconscious.
Mrs. Pekonen who is sixty-eight
years of age was unconscious when
she was taken from the debris of the
wrecked car but she regained con-
seriousness in a short time. 1t was
found that her shoulder was broken
and another car was secured and she
was taken to Waukegan.

Washington.-An agreement to give
the Interstate Commerce commission
supreme authority in fixing railroad
rates with power to suspend and annul
rate orders of state commissions was
reached today by the Senate and
House conferees in considering the
Esch-C ummins railroad reorganization

The Interstate Commerce commits
sion under he agreement would be au.
thorized to substitute its findings and
rate orders for those of the state com.
missions when the latter give an un.
fair advantage to or discriminate
against interstate commerce or inter.
ests either outside or inside a state.

ANOTHER DRIVE

Taken BY Government
Agents.

Anarchists BY Wholesale
Deportation Is Purpose.

Washington.-The greatest roundup
of radicals in the nations history,
was conducted by the government act
ing through Department Of Justice
agents in 40 cities stretching from
coast to coast, who, armed with war
rants, simultaneously raided retreats
Of Red agitators.
Reports indicated that more than
1000 members Of the communist and
communist labor parties, against
whom the raids were directed, were
in custody, and Department of JUS
tice officials expressed the opinion
that few hours would see twice that
number behind bars.
The roundup was not only the larg-
est yet conducted by the government
in its effort to rid the country of radi-
calism, but in the view of officials,
it was the most thoroughly carried
out. Department of Justice agents
had been instructed several days ago,
and the move was begun on the radi-
cal headquarters, whether in Port
land, Me-, or in Portland, Oregon.
Department of Justice operatives
were directed to catch the radicals
with the goods on" and that these
directions were carried out was evil
denced in reports, particularly from
New York, where the offices of Com
munist newspapers were raided, and
from New England, where consider
able literature was seized.
The primary object Of the raids, AS
sistant Attorney General Garvan, an
nounced, was the obtaining of evil
dence upon which the Department of
Labor might proceed with the depor-
tation of undesirables.
Minor raids were made in other
cities
The biggest "bag" of the radicals
was made in New York, where more
than 800 had been arrested and sent
to Ellis Island.
From dozen New England cities
300 or more of the Communists were
gathered and in Detroit the raiders
found plentiful supply, taking about
300 into custody. Chicago and Phila.
delphia supplied more than 12O and
Buffalo about 100 A larger number
than in any previous raid was re.
ported from practically all of the
cities.

QUIT MEAT WHEN
 KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take a Glass of Salts Before Break fast if Your Back Hurts Or
 Bladder Is Troubling You

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which excites the kidneys, they become overworked from the strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders come from sluggish kidney.
 The moment you feel dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of pas sage CT attended by sensation of scalding, stop eating meat and get about four ounces of lad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in glass of salts before breakfast and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has
 been used for generations to flush and stimulate the kidneys, also to
 neutralize the acids in urine SO 1t no long causes irritation, thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is inexpensive and can
 not injure; makes delightful effer- vescent Whitewater drink, which ev-
 eryone should take now and then
 to keep the kidneys clean and active
 and the blood pure, thereby avoid
 ing serious kidney complications. Advertisement.
