Ebert ToBe
Candidate
Once More
German President to
Seek Re election If
Chance of Winning
Is Not ObScured
BY FRANK e. MASON

Berlin, May 6s--PresideEt Ebert

assured Of sure thing. II the
parties lineup and choice oi
candidates Indicate possibility
Of his being defeated President
Ebert will decline the Majority
Socialist party nomination with
thanks, issuing statement that
he wishes to retire to private life.
This information is from Majority
Socialist leaders in the intimate
circle surrounding Ebert.
The Presidency OF Germany re-
sembles the post OF President in
the United States only in title.
The German President has but
little practical influence In politi-
cal decisions. The principal bust
ness Of the President is to offici-
ate at the dedication Of public
buildings, orphan asylums, to
open expositions and charity
bazaars.
Two years ago Ebert was elect
ed temporary president at Weimar,
until the country should be put In
order and a regular first president
Of Germany could be elected. For
IT,, last two years Germany has
been procrastinating about when
that regular election should be
held. The politicians at the helm
now announce that the election
Will take place as soon as the Up
per Silesian boundary Is settled.

one or the purposes OF the Kapp
resolution was to force a presi-
Dental election. The Kappists
were backing Field Marshal Won
Hindenburg for the post, but he
upset their plans by asking the
lraiser's permission to run for the
presidency. The kaiser's answer
was never published, but the roy
aiists suddenly changed their pro-
gram and began to announce that
Ebert suited them quite we'll.
II is surprising that II is among
the royalists that the staunchest
admirers Of Ebert are found. Gle

fox, you know" Is their frequent
comment.
The conservatives and royalists
representing the moneyed inter
ests, are backing the postpone
ment of the election. A new cleo
tion will throw the country into
an uproar and disturb Germany,s
attempts to get back to Industrial
equilibrium, they contend. The
presidency is not important in a
practical way, therefore let us let
well enough alone, they continue.

In office until retired for old age.

Pope Urges British
And Irish to Quit
Violence and Arbitrate

LONDON, May 21.-Pope Benedict
in a message to Cardinal Logue,
Irish primate, has urged British and
Irish alike to abandon violence and
reach settlement through a body
selected from the entire Irish nation,
according to the Weekly Dispatch
tonight.
The Pope's letter was said to have
enclosed 100000 lire for the Irish
White Cross to be used in the al
deviation of distress in Ireland.
The Pope said in part: "While we
are filled with anxiety regarding all
nations, we are most especially con-
cerned about conditions in Ireland.
I'm the public strife which is talk
ing place in your country, it is the
deliberate counsel of the Holy See
to take sides with neither of the con-
tending parties.
"Such neutrality, however, does
not prevent our wishing, desiring,
even praying and beseeching the
contending parties that this frenzy
and strife may as soon as possible
subside.
Indeed we do not perceive how
this bitter strife can profit either
when property and homes are being
ruthlesslY and disgracefulIy laid
waste, villages and farmsteads be-
ing set aflame, when on both sides
a war resulting in the death of I'M
armed people, even women and chill

This wonderful rat virus, which is known
as Alexander Rat-Killer, is merely mixed
with bread or meat scraps and placed where
rats, mice or gophers can get to it. Within
few hours after a rat has eaten Alexander
Rat-Killer he gets high fever and suffers
terrible thirst. He leaves the barns and
nesting holes and goes to the open fields in
search of pure air and running water. Rats
and mice affected always die away from
the barns an< houses, SO there Is no odor.
1t is a scientific fact that one rat affects
others and soon the whole colony leaves the
buildings and dies. And though this virus
is absolutely deadly to rats--chickens, hogs,
cattle or any farm animal can eat it and
not be affected at all.
So confident is Mr.. Alexander that Alex
ander Rat-Killer will kill every rat on your
farm In less than a weeks time that he
offers to send, as an introductory offer, a
regular $500 tube for only $1.O0. Give it
according to directions, and IL, at the end
OF weeks time, you are able to discover
any rats, mice or gophers on your farm,
your money will be refunded. big Kan

is reliable and will do as he says.
Send NO MONEY. Just write to q. r.
Alexander. Alexander laboratories, 1850

lutcly satisfactory your money will be re-
turned without question. Write today--a

Liquor for Husband

NEW YORK, May 21.--A woman
may support her husband In the style
to which he is accustomed-so far
as home brewing is concerned-ac-
cording to the findings of a Brooklyn

The jury refused to indict Mrs

that her husband a Russian, had
been accustomed to regular ration
of whisky all his life, and that she
had used the small still found in her
home to manufacture about quart
a week for his private consumption.
Of lightweight cases of alleged
violations of the new state prohibit

indictments in eight.
Mrs. Rebecca Hirschman, arrested
at Coney Island for having a gallon
of whisky in a satchel, testified the
liquor was the only thing of value
left when her husband died recently,
and that she was trying 10 sell it to

NEGROES RETURNING
SOUTH FOR WORK

The southern negro, lured to the
north by munificent wartime wages,
is trekking back southwark. He
will take his place in the cotton
fields this summer.
A poll of labor agencies in south
ern cities today revealed this fact.
It also revealed that many of the
negroes who migrated to the north
to earn higher wages are having to
be advanced enough money to get
back southwark.
In many cases former employers

Dor here now, authorities say. Re-
duction of cotton acreage together
with the added supply of negro labor
is responsible they declare. ono,
Few of the negroes saved money
while working for larger wages In
the north, according to labor ex-
perts. This, they say, accounts for
the inability of many of them to
pay their railroad fare back to
Dixie.
Others gladly would leave the
hardships of unemployment in the
northern industrial centers for the
good food and shelter they formerly
had on southern farms, if they had
some former employer who would
transport them back, labor experts
say. This is indicated, according to
the experts, by the numerous letters
received by southern farmers from
former employees, asking that they
be sent for,
In Georgia, while there has been
no great immigration Of negroes
from the north, there has been some,
reports show. Because of reduced
acreage, however, the farmers nave
an ample supply to work the flelds.
In Mississippi practically the same
condition exists, according to re-
ports. while in Louisiana number
of negroes have returned, but many
of these have obtained jobs in the
city. Nevertheless, farmers DO not
apprehend any labor shortage at cot
ton-chopping time. .,....o
F. w. Gist, agricultural statistlcian
of Alabama, who has just completed
bama, declared today that negroes
have returned in droves to that
state from the north. In Alabama,
statistics show, there are already I1S
persons for every hundred farm JOBS.
In Tennessee and Arkansas, en-
ployment bureaus estimate that APP
proximately sixtyfive per cent OF
the negroes of those states VINO
went north have gone back. Prac-
ticalIv ali of these returned more
than three months ago. There has
been little immigration recently que

they will find plenty of laborers.
