The Polish forces have been re-

Premier, has sent a letter to the

The communication concludes:

energetic army will always remain i'm

PARIS, Aug. 2S.-Most of the first
$4,000 prisoners taken by the Poles
were captured in the territory north
west of Warsaw, including the Danzig
corridor, by the army under command
OF the French general, Billotte, who
formerly was chief of staff to General
Lyautey, Resident French Governor of
Morocco. This army now is most ef-

power, and that most Of the 1000
French officers in Poland are actually
participating in the fighting.

says that inasmuch as France is not in
state of war with Russia any French
officer taken prisoner on the Warsaw

Need of Reduction Shown

MY proposition was to discharge the
horoes of employees taken on during
the war period, whose services are GER
tainly no longer needed by the govern
ment. and get back at least to where
we were before the war That means
practically 100000. Therefore when YOU
say there arc about GAO 600 employees
you are mistaken by simply 100 600 In
stead of there being 10000 left to do
the government work, there will be
100000, exclusive of the Postoffice De-
partment, as many as were ever re-
1uired during peace years.

the War Risk Bureau. If there is one
place on this earth where employees
should be discharged it is in the War

By Haywood Broun

When play is wrenched from it's
native tongue, badly acted and badly
produced it is difficult to determine it's
quality. But if Max Halbe's youth"
("Jugend"), which was produced at the
Greenwich Village Theater last night,
is not tritc and tiresome play, it can
certainly be made to seem so.
Aside from the translation and the
performance, we know that Youth"
contains one of those scenes in which
an old man grows reminiscent in the
presence of a young one about some
body he wanted to marry and didn't,
and at the end of a quarter of an hour
winds up with "She was your mother"
Our own Owen Davis would be ashamed
to plant any weapon of offense so often
in the minds Of the audience as Halbe
has planted the rife in "Youth." The
only surprise aroused when the blame
thing finally did go off was that no
body except the heroine was shot.
Of course, Youth" is one of those
plays about spring and young radishcs
As far as We can judge from such
Continental dramas as we have seen
spring is the most severe of the sea-
sons in Centrak Europe. Everybody
uts on rubber heels ana bounces about
with such abandon that you just know
small good can come of it. And it
rever does. Generally the seduction
occurs during the intermission be-
tween the second and third acts and
The shooting just before the final cur
tain. Cain we judge, is the principal
carly crop in East Prussia.
Reginald Sheffield and Lois Churchill
were the XQung folk who caught the
promiscuous spirit of the early spinach
and the young onions and forgot them
selves. They both shouted and bound
ed great deal. There was also an
idiot brother.
1t seemed to US that the only good
actor in the cast was Adolph Link, who,
despite his difficult accent, gave an ex-
cellent performance during the greater
part of the evening. But there were
times when he missed his lines and he
was not free from the general fault of
shouting. Emanuel Reicher, who
staged the play, has made a bad job
Of it. Although obvious and mechan-
cal, Youth" ought to have moments of
effectivness if played quietly. Perhaps
Mr.. Reicher believes that spring is
heavy sleeper.
John Wenger has designed a hand
some set.

Court Orders McMullin,
Dry Agent, Extradited
Is Committed to Tombs and
Will Be Taken to Indiana
To-day

Stewart N. McMulln, formerly pro-
hibition enforcement agent, who was
acquitted on a murder charge by a
Federal jury last week. and who is
wanted by Indiana officials for violat-
ing his parole, was turned over yester-
day to q representative of the Indiana
prosecutors Office by Judge Mcintyre
in the Court of General Sessions. In
turning McMullin over to the State of
Indiana Judge Mcintyre did SO with
the proviso that he be not taken out
of the state before 4 o'clock.
The proviso was made on request of
Sidney r. Lash, counsel for McMullin
who said he wished to get writ of
habeas corpus in the Supreme Court
Judge Mcintyre ordered that McMullin
be taken there.
Lash, McMullin and Detective Bart
Wilson went to the chambers Of JUS
tice George V. Mullan Lash moved
that the formality of a petition be
waived, but Justice Mulan refused, on
the ground that there was no case to
be argued unless there was a petition.
Lash then drew up the required docu-
ment, which was signed by McMulln
and presented to Detective Bart Will
son. McMullin's attorney then re-
oucsted postponement of the hearing
until this morning, saying that it was
necessary for him to visit the law IL
brary to obtain material to prove his
contention that McMullin could not be
cxtradited.
Justice Mulan refused the request
but granted an adjournment of half an
hour. Lash on his return from the H.
brary read several decisions, and, in
conclusion, admitted that McMullin
was the man wanted by the Indiana
authorities.
Justice Mullan dismissed the writ
and ordered that McMullin be turned
over to Parole Officer August Knos-
man, of Indiana. This was done, and
McMullin was sent to the Tombs until
this morning, when the start for the
Indiana State Prison at Michigan City
will be made

Lutherans Urge Revocation
OF Ban on Missionaries

WASHINGTON. Oct 26-The ben~
NAL convention of the United Lutheran
Church finally adopted to-day resolu-
tions urging revocation of time
restrictions on missionaries, the action
presumably was aimed at the British
government, which was frequently
mentioned in the debate.
Application of cloture was neces-
sary before the resolutions, even in
their modified form, could be brought
to a vote. Objections by members that
it was not wise at this time to pass the
statement of principles to which the
resolutions were attached were voiced
during the debate.

HAPPY MAY DAY PARTY CHEERS
 PIONEERS

The Y. w. C. A. Center through May Day week was one Of the busi- est places in America, according to Mrs. Irving in charge. On the night of April Seth, and the afternoon as well. the Girl Reserves of the Eth and 9th grades made up a large num- Der of May Day baskets and filled them with flowers That night about 20 of these youthful maiuens, like harbingers of glad tidings, wended their way to the Pioneer home and distributed these May Day tokens Of remembrance from the present day youngsters pioneering and following in the footsteps of those who are now the real pioneers among those who are now bivouacked on tine stony point among the pines overlooking the city. These happy children as they ran, singing and dancing with iov and the exhilaration of youth ful exercise made 1t busy half hour for older folks to keep pace with thenl. The moonlight of that night, and the quletneSS ol the aImoSpIltIe combined to make a setting ideal for this elfin visit to the patriarchs oI Arizona.
 Most touching was the kindly and motherly advice given the young ladies by the pioneer women at the home. Deep and lasting impressions were made for good upon these young minds by these grandames Much good resulted from this visit to both sides; the youthful by receiv- ing advice that sank inward, and the aged by the kindly touch of youth l betokening nonforgetfulness from without the home.
 The happy procession of young i sters carried their good cheer on to the Mercy hospital, as well as to many of the old folks at home, so

COUNTERFEITER WOULD WORSHIP
 THAT PAPER

John (. Stephens was seen walking down the street yesterday with a handful of peculiar looking paper money. When he was hailed and asked to buy a drink" he explained the use of this money. It was sou venir money which had been handed down to him by his father, V. A Stephens, and of the several bills only one was dated, and numbered. It was a one dollar bill and bore the date of 1S41, and number 5. The bills were issued as the currency oi the Bank of River Raisen, Monroe county, Michigan, and they were printed on one side only. The paper was thin Iand of very poor quality compared with the present banknote paper and would be a picnic for a smooth counterfeitcr of the present day vintage.
 Among Mir. Stephens handful of curiosities were some old time ballots of the old style, and John w. Dough erty, who took d keen interest in them. said he had voted one of the tickets in 1880, although the tickets bore no date. These old timers
