Officials Amused by His Tale
of Bolshevism Now Rife
.c in Mexico.
by Universal Service.

O. A High official of the Govern.
nent today declared that no enmlty
can be stirred up between the
United States and Mexico by Ameri-
cans having personal grievances
= who return with lurid tales of Dol.
shevism and reds.
This official asserted that progress
continues rapidly to be made to-
ward recognition of the Obregon
government, and that there are now
none but technical obstacles, which
are steadily being removed by the
Mexican supreme court, the govern
ment and the congress. These re-
late to the safeguarding of American
property rights under the 1917 con-
stitution.
Nothing of the bolshevism in Mex.
leo reported by A. Bruce BielaslSi,
who visited the State Department
yesterday, was confirmable at either
the State or War Departments, who
maintain q close watch on develop
ments at and below the border. Al.
though this New York oil promoter
is a former chief of the Bureau Of
Investigation of the Department Of
Justice the departments depend en-
tirely upon advices from their own
agents.
1t is known that Bielaski was not
encouraged to talk much about his
"kidnaping" experience in the state
of Morelos. out of which grew ac-
cusations of self-abduction, by Mexi-
can authorities. He himself said,
after his visit to the State Depart
ment, that the kidnapping was
more or less "a picnic"
One of Bielaski's statements
caused amusement among officials
more familiar. with Mexico than is
the oil man., He said that the red
flag is seen almost everywhere. lie
had not been long enough in Mex
leo to learn that all butcher shops
display red flags; have been doing
30 long before that color became the
symbol of bolshevism in any of its
forms. Red is the favorite color of
Latins and is displayed in bunting
and in many other ways.
1t is reliably reported that Bielasl1i
himself was regarded as a maker Of
trouble against the government
while he was in Mexico. He was sus-
pected of connection with revolu-
tionary factions and watched accord
nBly In Oruer 10 prevent MS accom-
plishing anything excessively annoy
ing to the government.
Government officials today also
pointed out that accredited agents Of
both countries would hardly be ne
gotiating an agreement II RESPONSE
BILE American officials suspected the
Mexican government of bolshevism.
Mexico already has received eco
nomic recognition through American
international bankers: one OF her
highest officials, Secretary Of the
Treasury de Ia Huerta, has been
most cordially received by President
Harding at the White House and by
Secretary Hughes at the State De-
partnent. and messages of the
friendliest sort have passed between
President Obregon and the White
House.

WOULD OFFER .
S1,O00,000FOR
. DISEASE CURE
Cong. SprouI Introduces Bill
to Spur Scientists in
Search Of Remedy.
BY UnIxersal Service.

Lure of 1000, 900 rewards is held
out. In a bill introduced in the House
yesterday, to physicians and scien
lists of the world who discover and
give to humanity specific cures for
half a dozen prevalent diseases
which have baffled doctors and sur.
geons from the advent of medica,
science.
The author of the bill is Congress
man Elliott w. Sproul OF Chicago
Under the terms Of the measure.
$1,000, 900 would be paid in ten an.
nual instalments to anyone who finds
a successful cure for tuberculosis,
cancer, pneumonia, paralysis, epi-
lepsy. or dementia praecox (mental
diseased.
Systems Of treatment, such as open
air and diet for tuberculosis patients
would not be considered. Mr.. Sproul
said. The cure must be specific
such as a serum, or something that
definitely kills the germ of the par.
ticular disease.
A board composed of the surgeons
general of the United States army.
navy and public health service IL
provided in the bill to pass upon all
cures alleged to be discovered. Pay.
ments OF rewards would be made
only upon certificates from the board
that the genuineness Of the cure had
been demonstrated.
Sprouts idea Is that the offering
Of 81, ,000, 900 rewards would let loose
the worlds most famous scientists
in an intensive battle with the great
est enemies OF the human race.
Commenting on his bill, the Illinois
Congressman said:
II have had an idea for a long
time that such encouragement or
recognition from the United States
Government for vital contributions
Of this character to civilization
would spur on and quicken the ef.
forts Of the noble men and women
who have labored increasingly for
years to combat the ravages Of
germs upon the human race.
I'm recent years there has become
noticeable alarming increases in the
number of cases of the diseases men
toned In my bill. Thirty per cent of
all the American world war veterans
now being treated under the Vet
erans' Bureau are suffering from
tuberculosis. Cancer and the other
diseases likewise are spreading with
equal rapidity."

POSTGRADUATE
NAVAL SCHOOL
MAY Be MOVED
Head Of Annapolis Academy
Favors Change, Preferably
to Washington.

ANNAPOLIS. Md, Aug. 24.-Rear
Admiral Henry B. Wilson, superin.
tendent OF the Naval Academy,
favors the removal OF the Naval
Post Graduate School from An
napolis, preferably to Washington.
will make this recommendation In
his annual report.
Admiral Wilson believes better
work will be done IL the whole local
activity Is centered on the Naval
Academy, without entanglements
with other phases Of naval education.
There is also no doubt unsatis-
factory housing conditions are re-
sponsible for a strong feeling in
favor Of moving the school. 1t is
said that officers detailed to the Post
Graduate School have great diff.
Guilty in getting suitable homes
within their means.
About seventy officers, most Of
whom have families, are now stu
dents at the Post Graduate School,
and the number will shortly be in.
creased to a hundred. The presence
Of so large a number. in Annapolis
makes the housing situation dis
agreeable. Admiral Wilson says that
so unsatisfactory Is the rental situa.
ton in Annapolis officers have tried
to avoid details here. and this ham
pered the working Of the institution.
The change will not be made at
present. as there Is no suitable
building near Washington or at
other points, but 1t is believed an
effort. backed by majority OF naval
officers, will be made to effect the
change just as soon as accommoda.
tions can be had near the new Naval
Laboratory outside Of Washington.
