Professional Beauty Too Tenn

Ia being arranged by counsel for Wal-
ter Osterle, prominent German archi-
tect, who IL being sued for divorce
by q Chicago actress known on the
stage as Arma Roma.
Miss Roma also charges Osterle
with bigamy and with defrauding her
out of 100000. Before her marriage
the actress was Arma Shellman. She
claims that after their marriage, her
husband got large sums Of money
from her and eventually left her.
She traced him to Berlin, where, she
asserts, she found him living with
his first wife. from whom he had
never been divorced.
Osterle's lawyer is working UP q
sensational line Of defense. Too
much Temperament, says the lawyer,
who asserts Arma was q shop girl
in Chicago before Osterle met her.
Her beauty enabled her to get on
the stage and into the movies.
Osterle contends that, owing to
his wife's pronounced anti-Gefman
attitude, he had to leave her. He
alleges further that Arma played q
prominent part in the anti.German
film called THE Beast Of Berlin"
enacted the role Of the tortured Bel
gian mother in another anti-German
play in which she was advertised a.
the srandniece OF Captain Dreyfus
Of France.
Miss Roma was known before her
retirement from the stage as 'The
Million Dollar Beauty" Her counsel
's preparing a strong fight in view
of the sentiment which might he
arounsed in behalf Of Osterle through
the charges Of hostility to Germany.

reported that Eamonn de Valera and

ratification Of the peace treaty, ad-
mitted that they expected land

Pact Meets Approval.
The alleged admission Of defeat by

on the strong growth OF sentiment

Supporters OF the Irish peace treaty
got into action at once when Dali

bate upon the pact.
Opponents Of the treaty lack re.

the treaty they would have their own
coinage and stamps and army. The
army would hold the strongest points
in Ireland. not in flying columns,

Criticizes De Valera.
Beasley, who is a general in the
Irish republican army, declared that
the followers Of De Valera could not
show how war was to be avoided, the
truce maintained and the British army
was to be tied up IL the pact were
rejected,
The defenders had no sooner opened
than the opponents launched a vigor
Gus counter-attack.
A. O'Connor, Of County Kildare
charged that peace had been Showed
down the throats Of the Irish at the
point Of the baynoet."
Collins interrupted, shouting: Have
you seen their ruined homes? Have
you heard their murdered sons?"
o'Connor had started off mildly
enough, saying he was going to set an
example of brevity.
THE treaty has suffered from the
desertion of some Of it's advocates.
said O'Connor. II am unable to under
stand whether II was a treaty OF con
sent or was signed under duress."
One Of the most vitriolic attacks
against the treaty was made by Count

This day begins the working
year. Young men, looking for
success, and bosses Of many en-
ployes, will find q good New
Year suggestion in an advertise
ment published last Sunday. Mr..
Simon, who did many things to
change and monopolize the
southwest corner Of Thirty
eighth street and Fifth avenue
IN New York, wants o first-class
young advertising man. He
wants the usual things-knowl-
edge Of English, Of merchandise,
plus ambition. And he espe-
'cially wants zone that can make
suggestions and LISTEN to sug-
gestions."
That listening part is the rare,
valuable quality. The good lis
teners, whether employers or en-
ployed, great or small, are those
that 60 ahead. William M. Laf-
fan became boss of the Sun.
He could listen. Joseph Pulitzer
was a born listener, and w. r.
Hearst, whose publishing business
Of eighty millions a year, built
up without a partner, is the big
gest in the world, will listen for
hours, drumming with his fingers,
saying not q word, and storing
up anything worth while.
Those whose mental wheels
revolve and throw off sugges-
tions good and bad are valuable
in the hands of good listeners
more valuable, often, to the lis
~teners than to themselves. It is
the power to listen, remember,
and act that really counts.
A little success makes many
employers too vain to listen
they lose half the value of their
men. 81 know my business" is
the cry of big and little. But
nobody knows his business;
everybody worth while is listen
ing and learning to the last day.
Napoleon knew a good deal
about war especially. But when
he was planning ways to invade
England with sailing ships. he
said. "I1l give that American
one minute" He did not listen.
and the American went away.
II was Fulton. who could have
taught Napoleon to build steam~
ships and travel across TO Eng
land. regardless of the wind. .
II Napoleon had listened that
ltime it might have changed the
book of history and he might
newer have seen Saint Helena.
Learn to "listen to suggestions"
whether you be employer or hire
ling. and thank Mr.. Simon for
good New Year suggestion.
In an elevated railroad accident
in New York some were killed and
many smashed in an obsolete,
fragile. shaky wooden car forty
three years old. OF course. 1t
crumbled up like a match box
when another car hit 1t.
That happens because cars for
ky-three years old help pay divi-
lends. With public ownership
such an accident would throw a
party out Of power. Public Off
cials would use steel cars to pro-
tect their jobs. Private owners
use forty-three-year-old wooden
cars to protect their dividends.
That is the story.

The Indian and Irish problems
are totally different. Conflict
in religion is the only faint re-
semblance. For seven hundred
and fifty years the Irish have
talked of liberty and fought for
it. In five thousand years of the
literature Of India the word Glib

yearnings, arrogant, destructive
class distinctions, shrinking from
reality, fake mahatmas instead
of real scientists, India has
poor background for freedom.

FIRED FOR THE GOOD OF THE SERVICE
GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES KICKED OUT FOR EXPOSING
WAR GRAFTERS-AMAZING SITUATION AFFECT
ING DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
by Charles NJ. Kelley

One of the nastiest messes uncov.
cred at Washington for some time
has to do with the Department OF
Justice. From it energies the ghost
of war grating, which, like the ghost
at the banquet, refuses to stay put
| The circumstances, as they have
developed. are about as follows:
Certain members of Congress
notably Representative Woodruff, OF
| Michigan and Representative John
son, of South Dakota, have not been
satisfied with the way cases against
men and corporations who are
charged with having looted the gov
eminent are being handled by the
| Department of Justice. Conducting
an investigation in their own behalf
they have unearthed. as they claim
a very serious and quite discredit-
I able state of apathy on the part of
federal prosecuting officers toward
persons of prominence who, if they
were given their deserts, would now
be serving long terms in peniten
tiaries.
Recently Woodruff and Johnson
laid before congress what they said
was a clear-cut case of neglect of
the public interest. They made allie
cations affecting the department of
Attorney General Daugherty that
made the members gasp with amaze
, ment.
These were to the effect that big
crooks were getting immunity and
that a conspiracy was afoot to keep
the public from getting the facts.
Watts Is Fired
Attorney General Daugherty's only
response to this indictment was to
summarily fire an agent of his de-
partment, Mai w. 0. Watts, who is
said to have supplied information to
Representatives Woodruff and John
son upon which they made their pre-
sentation to congress.
Attorney General Daugherty JUS
titled this action with the statement
that it was "for the good of the ser
vice" and declared that Watts had
been guilty of "disloyalty."
Representative Johnson took occa-
sion to bring this incident to the
attention of congress. He said that
| Watts had served his country in
three wars, and that some time ago,
while employed with the Department
of Justice, che was offered COM
mission as major in the army if he
would let up with certain prosecu-
| tons"
1t seems that Watts is not the let
up kind. His reply to Attorney Gen
eral Daugherty is about as pointed
rebuke as a former subordinate
ever administered to a superior.
IF you are at all informed on the
departmental affairs of your high Of
flee" said Watts to Daugherty, "you
must be aware of the outstanding
facts that l have devoted more than
two years to loyal and faithful eff
forts to protect the interests of the
government, when a combination of
