BOY TURNS IN FALSE
 FIRE ALARMS ID GET
 EVEN WITH KIDS

The fire alarm rang at central sta tion at 10 o'clock yesterday morning. The men rushed to their places and with a roar the blaze-fighting appa- ratus sped on it's way to answer the call at Third and Pierce streets. A small blaze from overturned oil stove had caused the excitement. It was quickly extinguished and the men returned with the fire trucks to the station.
 The engine of the big fire truck was still warm after it's run when a second alarm came from First and Adams streets. Pedestrians. motorists and drivers of vehicles scrambled out of the way as the roaring, changing ap paratuS sped to the scene of the alarm. There was no fire. Just 45 minutes after the second alarm came third call. It was an appeal for the fire men to return to the scene of the false alarm, First and Adams streets. The run was made through the con gested downtown district and again it was found the call had been made without cause.
 Slightly apart from the crowd which quickly gathered at the intersection of the two streets, an alert, eager-eyed 6year- old boy watched the heavy fire trucks. Chief Simmons had his at tention directed to the boy by man who conducts a business in the vicinity of First and Adams streets.
 That boy has turned in two false alarms within the past 45 minutes" Chief Simmons was told. The young ster retreated as he saw the chief ap- preaching, but there was no chance for escape. He strengthened up. looked the fire fighter in the eye, and half-apolo- getically inquired:
 You sore?" There was admission of guilt in the question.
 Why did you turn in those false alarns?' asked the chief.
 Well. some of the other kids saw you goin' down to Pierce street this morning, and I missed it. so I thought I'd get even with them by calling out the fire wagons while they wasn't around" was the explanation.
 Chief Simmons gave the youngster an Impressive lecture hinged with q threat which brought very earnest promise of good behavior in the future

SENATOR DECLARES DRY LAW INFRINCES
 ON STATES RIGHTS

NEW YORK, Jan. 16.-The prohi- bition amendment to the constitution challenges the integrity of the states. Senator Thomas of Colorado, argued tonight before the New York State Bar association. It embodies, he de- clared, a revolution in the constitu- tional scheme of government, possibly destined to prove as far reaching in it's political consequences as the Civil war, which challenged the integrity of the union.
 If by observing the formulas pro- Xided for amending the constitution, " Mir. Thomas said, the object embraced in the eighteenth amendment may be permanently embodied in it, so may every other object be, without regard to the original division of powers
 With this warning of what might result, the senator urged that the na- tion and states would be preserved, each in it's proper sphere, by insistence that all public authorities observe the limitations imposed by the constitu- tIon and that all citizens should be Americans first, and democrats, re- publicans, or independents afterward.

PRISONER ESCAPES FROM DEPUTY BY
 MEANS OF OLD RUSE

Amused chuckles were heard in the sheriff's office last night after supper was over and the usual crowd of deputies, jailers and hangers son had settled themselves about the room 70 wait like Micawbeft for something to turn up. There were chucllles for evrey one, however. save Al Dewitt. deputy sheriff, who distinguished him. self January 4 by clever work in the arrest of two men suspected of safe cracking job at Tolleson. Gloom hung about him like a pail.
 Ventura county. California, is re- spoEsible for the crash of AIS pedes- tal-ior the time being at least-and his friends are all enjoying his dis comforture.
 Yesterday morning Sheriff Mont gomery received a telegram from the sheriff of that county. giving the de- scription of a man wanted there for failure to provide. Deputy Dewitt was detailed to the job, and with characteristic energy, went at 1t in his accustomed manner. By mid afternoon he had q clue, and refus ing all proffered assistance, followed it till evening, when he found his man Monroe street.
 Gets His Man
 The man, charged with failure to provide for his wife and babes ad- mltted everything freely, talked smoothly to Al, and won his confi- dence. even more, his sympathy. After his story was told, Al ste-eed himself, however. and said: Well, I'll have to take you over to see the sheriff. any way. come along"
 All right the other agreed readily, just wait till I slip in and change clothes"
 Sure said Al. easily. settling near the door-jam the front entrance of the house.
 Time passed, and Al lit a cigarette. Then he looked at his watch. He'd been there ten minutes. He thereupon entered the room.
 It was empty. and an open back door was mute evidence of what had happened Al was dismayed. and al- most crept back to the office to face the barbs of his fellow deputies

THINK POLES IN
 NO DANGER OF
 RUSSIAN ATTACK

LONDON, Jan. 16.-Poland"s situa- tion regards a possible bolshevik military onslaught seems to be fairly secure at present, in the opinion of military experts. There is always danger of a eoncerted red attack against the Poles, they point out, but there are no indications of an imminent menace.
 Most of the bolsheviki's time and energy on the southern front is being devoted to an effort to defeat General Denilline who is fighting doggedly and apparently is still strongh enough to give the enemy plenty of trouble. Therefore, it is considered problemati- cal whether the reds will attempt any big drive against the Poles at present, but even if the bolsheviki should or ganize an offensive they have not only the able Polish army to cope with, but the winter weather would be favorable to the Poles.

Germany Plans
 War On France
Time Will Bring Clash, Is
 Word of Young and Old
By Frank w. Rostock

BERLIN-Germany is preparing for it's next war.
 And France is the intended victim.
 Just when this attack on the French is to take place has not been settled in the German mind-but every Ger man, no matter what his age or sta ton. says that time is coming maybe in 10 years, maybe 20 or maybe 30. Xsut eVen if there is doubt as 10 the eSact time of Germanys effort to avenue the loss of the World War. there does not seem to be the least doubt that vengeance will be visited upon the French and that Germany
 Voice Strong Hatred
 Germany is not forging guns or mak- ing munitions with that end in view, just now for that would be impossi- ble. But through propaganda of the most poisonous kind the fire of hatred is being kindled in the German mind.
 Every German I met voiced to me his hatred of France. Every misfor tune the Germans have met with has been laid at the door of the French. Premier Clemenceau is hated in Ger many as no other man ever was. The mere mention of his name brings forth direct threats of what is to hap pen to France.
 How They Look At It
 The evil propagandist is doing his work well. He is reaching not only the mind of the adult German. but his poison is sinking deep into the mind of the rising generation. Even young boys give voice to their hatred and tell how, when they grow up, they will drive the Frenchman from conquered German territory and de- stroy the French nation.
 Germany soon will be stronger than France. despite our present condition" said a German student to me n few days ago. Then France had better watch out
