ORGANIZATION.

Representatives of 80 civic and
patriotic organizations engaged
IN Americanization work in
Washington this week formed
the National American Council.
The purpose of this consolida-
ton organization is to cooper
ate more effectively IN carrying
on the work of education in A.
merican principles and to reduce
the waste of effort caused by
duplication and the many ap-
peals that are made to the pub
lie for financial support.
The constitution adopted lin
it's the activities of the council
to the promotion of education,
patriotism and good citizenship
and forbids its entering econo-
mic, industrial, sectarian or par
tisan political fields. Not only
will the council direct it's efforts
toward education along Ameri-
can lines but its influence will be
used to overcome INSTALLING
propaganda that is being spread
throughout the country in the
interests of Germany, Ireland
and other Causes" foreign to
the United States.
Col. Frank N. Galbraith, Jr.,
commander Of the American
Legion, declared there never
was a time when Americaniza-
ton work was more needed, for
"m-American and disloyal prop
uganda is being openly preach
ed, some of it inspired at for
eign sources and some in the in
terests of foreign governments"
There is need of co-ordinated
effort on the part of all, patri-
otie organizations in this
country, not only to instruct in
AUGMENTATION, but to over
come the influence of alien agi-
tators.

conqueror.
The American Legion is not
deceived by efforts of the ny
phenated press and other inter-
ests in the United States to dis
credit the work Of the American
soldier, even though this is at
tempted by discrediting the ma
lions with which the United
States was united in the war.
The same interests which sought
before the United States enter
ed the wal to show the Ameri-
can people that Prussianism was
being misrepresented, that Ger
many was not guilty of the
crimes charged against her, con-
tinued that effort in a more sub
tie way during the war, and re-
Gently the poisonous gas Of an
ti-allied propaganda is being us
ed, in the hope that a feeling of
antagonism may be created be-
tween the United States and the
allies.
Every patriotic American
should nail attempts to discred-
it the part of the United States
in the war, or to bring about a
condition that would ALLEVIATE
this country from the nations
whose soldiers fought side by
side with Americans in Europe.

BRITAIN AND THE REDS.

BRITAIN AND THE REDS.
Great Britain has finally sue
cumbed to the lure of the pound
sterling in it's attitude toward
the soviet government of Rus
STA, and the announcement in
London that commercial rela-
tions would soon be resumed
with the Russians under red
rule will not provoke enthusiasm
on the part of peoples who real
lie the danger that is involved.
1t is useless for the govern
ment of Great Britain to attempt
tc deceive itself by making any
distinction between the resumpt-
ion Of commercial relations and
the recognition of the bolshe-
visit regime. 1t is to be doubted
if any considerable number Of
the people Of Great Britain are
fooled.
Britain, it is understood, stipu-
lates that the bolshevists shall
not carry on their propaganda
outside of Russia and promises
that the British will not inter-
fere with the internal affairs of
Russia. This may sound encour-
aging, but the well-known char
acter of the red leaders is such
that few will have confidence
that they will keep their part of
the bargain.
Lenine and Trotzky will ex-
plot the arrangement with
Great Britain as a great victory
for the soviet government, and
it will be used to fasten the
shackles of bolshevism more
firmly upon the Russian people.
The agreement, too, comes at a
A. L..
time when there is reason to be-
lieve that the red rule has been
seriously weakened from within.
Commercial advantages which
Great Britain may gain over
other nations in dealing with
the bolshevists will be overshad-
owed by the moral losses which
will be sustained, both by Great
Britain and by the world. By
entering into trade relations
with red Russia, Britain has I'M
doubleday weakened the cause
of Poland, Rumania and other
countries which border on Rus
STA. The promise of the soviet
government to stop its propa-
ganda will not be worth the pa
per on which it is written. In
the end the apparently laudable
purpose of Great Britain to curb
the radicals of Russia will be
defeated.

BOOSTING PRICE OF SUGAR

~
Sound finance and operations of
the banking business are not
matters which are familiar to
the average citizen, but there
some things connected with f.
nancial transactions which he is
perfectly capable Of understand
ing.
A report from New York City
says that a number of promi-
nent American banks have de-
cided to advance money to SUI
gar producers in Cuba in order
that they may hold the crop and
compel an increase in price. The
effect will be to defeat the OPP
erations of the law Of supply
and demand and exact excess
i've prices from consumers.
When sugar sold last year at 30
cents a pound and more, consul
mers paid the price under pro-
test, for they were practically
all convinced that manipulation
somewhere was responsible.
The average American citizen
may not be very well posted on
matter Of finance, but he does
not need to have much knowl-
edge Of such transactions to be
convinced that the proposed sc-
ton Of American bankers to be
in the interest of the American
people; that American money is
to be used to exact higher pric-
es from American consumers.
Banks in the United States re-
fused to lend money to farmers
to enable them to hold their
crops for higher prices, and
there was much talk about the
principle involved in using the
public's money to force it to pay
higher prices. What banks re-
fused to do for American farm
ers they now propose to do for
Cuban planters. Perhaps the
banks will get a good rate of in

PROSECUTION AIDED
9YLANDRU'S TALK
Women Strangled Before Being
Cut Up, Theory Of the
Authorities.

VERSAILLES. Nov. 81 ASSOCIATED Press).
Bones OF the two dogs which belonged
to Nile Marchandier. one of the eleven
alleged victims of "Bluebeard" Landru,
again figured prominently I'm to-days
session OF his trial. Landru, having
admitted that he had killed tho dogs
Judge Gilbert insistenuy pressed the
prisoner to explain in what manner he
had killed them.
81 strangled them!" Landru finally
shouted. Then he explained that he
had used a waxed cord in the strangiing
process
Prosecutor Godefray, who insisted
that this particular point be brousnt
out. declared 1t would aid the prosecu-
tion in proving that Landru, during TITS
OF extreme frenzy. had strangled the
missing women, had but them up INTO
small bits and then, after regaining ms
normal state of mind had sold few
cheap belongings OF his victims. This
was done, the prosecutor argued. TO
give the appearance that his relations
with the women were merely CONNER
cial.
Interest in the trial on the part OF the
public Is increasing. The crush of people
to gain admission to the court room
to-day after the o'clock recess was so
great than many women tainted. Two
women hurled themselves against the
bayonets OF the soldiers keeping guard at
the court room door. One OF them was
severely wounded. while the other suf-
fered slight hurts.
The dramatic announcement by Henri
Landru that Nine. Heon. one Of the ten
women for whose murder he is on trial.
lived at a Paris hotel six months after
her alleged murder to-day proved TO be
n boomerang. The prosecution an
nounced that police investigation had
shown that Nine. Heon had never lived
at the address Landru gave, but that in
stead they had found witness to con-
tradict Landru's testimony.

BODY rs NOT IDENTIFIED

THE crowds which Jammed the down
town platform of the Times Square sub
way station last night at 1850 o'clock

well dressed young man about so years
Old, who already had attracted consid-
cradle attention by nervously pacing UP

and flung himself to the track in front
of q downtown express train The mo-
torman applied the emergency brakes
and brought the train TO a stop as soon
as possible, but the man was dead when

station was crowded with persons. all
Of whom tried to push their way down
to the south end Of the platform from
which the man had Jumped. Inter
borough special policemen who had been
i1srding the crowd on tho northbound
platform rushed across the bridges and
helped the few men on the downtown
platform handle the crowd. With the
aid Of policemen who came down from
the street they finally got the mob un-
der control
Tho body Of tho man was wedged
under the second truck of the first ear
OF the long train, and was not brought
TO the platform until an emergency crew
from the Interborough barns had worked
for half an hour. 1t was necessary to
jack up the trucks before the body could
DO taken out, and this delayed traffic
on the downtown express tracks for
about forty-fve minutes. When the body
finally was recovered IL was taken to the
West Thirtieth street station. where the
clothing was searched by detectives.
tt was said at the police station early
this morning that no cards or letters or

LONDON, Nov. 81 ASSOCIATED Press) -
A 'loyalist' meeting held in London
to-day as a demonstration by supporters
OF Ulster passed a resolution calling
upon the Government to enter into no
agreement on the Irish question until
the Sim Fein not only swore allegiance
to the throne but gave effective proof of
the reality OF such allegiance and until
the idea OF a separate army for Ireland
was abandoned.
Brig Gen. Decie, who commanded the
crown forces in Limerick before the
truce. but who since then has resigned,
said the Irish had learned during the
war that the British Government had
not the courage to deal with revolution
aries.
