Gen. Smuts Shocks Vienna
With His Shirt Sleeve Diplomacy

In 1918 he went over to Switzerland to
meet the Austrian statesman Count Mems
dorff, to parley about the possibility of
Austria's breaking away from the Kaiser.
The dialogue they carried on for less than
three minutes was as follows
Gen. Smuts-Is it true that you wish to
make separate peace?
Count Mensdorff-
Gen. Smuts-Yes or no?
Count Mensdorff-
Gen. Smuts-Then-good night!'
We were told that Vienna was shocked
by this shirt sleeve diplomacy. But SHUTS,
knowing that the Austrian came on fish,
ing excursion wherein he hoped to catch
string of information for Austria's Prus-
sian Minister, could not abide the
evasive, meaningless replies that Mems
dorff gave to his own direct question.
These replies were so vague that only
rows of stars. faithfully interpret them.
1t was new diplomacy, indeed, the d.
plomacy of the bare arm, with knotted
muscles showing.

places rather than, sacrifice their inde-
pendence, and the Great Trek, which opened
up the Transvaal and later the Orange
Free State and Natal was entirely due to
this restiveness under foreign domination.
These stubborn, Independent souled
Dutchmen, struggling onward into wilder
ness filed with black savages, remind us
not a little of the Mormon band who
ventured into our own far West, rife in
one hand and a Bible in the other. Like
the Mormons, the old Beers fought the
savage, suffered indescribable hardships
and encountered fate with a grim smile.
1t cost England three years, hundreds of
millions of pounds and thousands of lives
to subdue the children and grandchildren
of these old pioneers.
The children and grandchildren, def
mite and powerful minority of them, zeal
ously cherish the spirit Of their fathers.
They have been hard handful for the
British and the more progressive type Of
Beers that stand with the British. And
upon SHUTS has fallen for years the re-
sponsibility of sitting upon this lid, of
delicately adjusting the national safety
valve. Obviously his expertness in this
gies to the Irish problem, inspired the
English people to draft him.
"Slim Jamie is a statesman and sol
der, but he is c. shrewd diplomat as we'll
Yet he knows when to be extremely abrupt.
His knowledge of human nature, his instinc-
tive analysis Of situations, dividing the
real from the make-believe, has seemed
to be the guide to his attitude.

JR ASSISTANCE
(Ry INC Assoclnted prsss.l

London, March II (by the Assoc
ciated Press) Chancellor Mayr of
Austria, in putting that countrys
case before the allied supreme
council this morning appealed to
the powers to guarantee the capital
and interest of credits to Austria,
as he said any scheme to finance
her by private banks would not
come in time. probably would not
be large enough and the terms
would be unfavorable. He declared
that il credits were not forthcom-
ing Austria would succumb to "the
crisis in the last stage Of which we
now are"

the powers, the chancellor asserted,

STATE WILL SEEK SIX
MONTHS POSTPONMENT

Chicago, March IL (by the Asso-
day by the state that a six months
rostponement would be sought In
the trial of the indicted Chicago
White Sox players brought
charges from defense attorneys
that an attempt was being made to
shelve the case and leave the in
dicted players permanently under
a cloud OF suspicion. The trial is
scheduled to start Monday
The prosecution, however, de-
clared that the delay would be
sought "to make certain that the
men back of the series scandal
were driven out of baseball and in
to the penitentiary,"
Judge r. j, Barrett, American
league attorney, said that the pros
ecution had found its evidence was
not ready, New evidence being
gathered would give the state an
impregnable case, he said. and
might result in a further grand
jury investigation He said known
reluctance of some grand jury wit
necees to stand by their testimony
had made new evidence necessary.
Judge Barrett scoffed at rumors
that the case was being pigeon
holed TO proceed now might make
farce of the case and result in
guilty men escaping punishment, he
declared.
r. d. Nash, attorney for Buck
Weaver Swede Risberg, oscar
Felsch and Fred McMullin, and
Benedict Short, attorney for
Claude Williams, Joe Jackson and
allied with ID. p. Cassidy in the de-
tense of Eddie Cicotte, said they
would fight any attempt to pro-
cure a long delay. Two weeks or
thirty days would be granted as a
matter of courtesy. they said.
Jackson and Weaver said they
opposed even a short postponement
Judge Lands, baseball commits
sioner, placed all the indicted
players on the ineligible list when
he heard of the proposed postpone
ment and said they would remain
there pending the trial. This bars
them from playing organized base
ball. Concerning the possibility Of
the grand jury evidence being not
sufficient to obtain conviction
Judge C. A. Mcdonald, who started
the grand jury quiz, said that if
witnesses repudiated their state
ments there might be some diff

PRODUCERS ON THREE SIDES, North,
South and West. This is your final ops
portunity to win big with little money,
and get in the dividend class in few
days. Ten great wells have come in,
proving up our property since we began
operation in I'll Dorado. Three days
after my first choice well location was
secured a contract was let and two days
later the well was spudded in, and
twenty days drilling put the bit on top

was then set and cemented.

plans to present evidence tending
to show that there was conspir-
acy and will attempt to prove that
the men did not play their best
ball. Claude Williams testimony
before the grand jury that the
players met Brown and Sullivan
previous to the series In CicOtte's
room, and there discussed the
throwing of the games, will be pre-
scented as evidence of a conspiracy.
ICicotte's testimony that he delib-
'erately hit Rath, the first man up
i'm the first game, is expected to
play a big part in the states case
and the confession of Ctcotte that
he received $4,000 and of Viii
liams and Jackson that they re-
eeiNed $4,000 each also probably
win be used.
Judge Dever to Hear Case.
1t may be a question, however,
much weight confessions may
have. Under the law, if the ac-
cused players do not take the wit
ness stand, the confessions can be
used only against the men who
made them. Thus, If Weaver, Ris-
berg and the others who did not
confess, do not testify in their own
behalf, the confessions of Cicotte,
Williams and Jackson could be
used only against Cicotte, Williams
and Jackson.
Weaver and the others contend
that although they knew of the
conspiracy they did not
take part in it and did not receive
money.
George German, an assistant
states attorney, will have charge
of the prosecution, while several
attorneys have been engaged by
the ball players The case will
come before Judge William E.
Dever of the county court.
