RUSSIAN RELIEF DRIVE HIN
DERED BY COLD.

Mayor L. A. Fritsche reported to the
Review yesterday morning that nothing
had been done Monday of this week
towards the relief drive for the Rus.
sian needy. It was expected that a
free show would be given Monday
afternoon at the Lyric and Grand
Theatres for the purpose of explaining
to those present the Russian need for
relief, but no one appeared at the free
shows and nothing further could be
done. It was very cold Monday and
so many people we're occupied with
concerns of their own having to do with
the big amusements scheduled for this
week that no one had tine to remem-
ber the free show if they knew about
it. No soliciting was done Monday
but it was expected according to Dr..
Fritsche, that the solicitors would work
Tuesday yesterday instead. At the
time Of going to press no reports were
available.
The plan was to solicit sufficient
funds to pay for three-fourths carload
of flour. The Eagle Roller Mill had
offered to donate the other one-fourth
and railroad and steamship companies
will transport the flour to Russia free
of charge.

DAMAGE CAUSED BY RECENT
STORMS.

The recent storms have not been
merely local disturbances but have
extended over the greater part of the
country. Wisconsin is said to have
been very hard hit by the recent rain
followed by the freeze. Supt. Even
son OF Hanska reports that many of the
orchards of Wisconsin and many tim
Der trees have been so badly harmed
that they will die. He says that an
immense rain fell -four inches in very
short time) and was almost Immediate
ly converted into ice which caused the
greater part Of the damage. In Wis
consin many localities have been en-
tirely cut off on all lines of communica-
ton, the telephone companies being
particularly hard hit. The damage
done in Wisconsin alone will run into
millions. Local telephone lines have
also had a great deal of trouble since
the Wednesday blizzard of last week.
Essig, Hanska, Cambria, st. George,
Springfield, and Tracy were cut off
Thursday morning and only one Of the
six Mankato lines was open.

Depew, one of the few survivors of the Lincolian era of retains his rosy checked blitheness despite the pressure of work in con- noction with his job as chairman of tie Board of the New Y ork Central Railroad.

He used to tell about a terrible disease that broke out among the pigs in Illinois, from -I,ia Drt Fol low came along and advised cutting off the pigs tails The farmers did it. and the disease disappeared. But next year it came back worse than before, and the pigs hadn't any tails!
 "Humor has not only grown less in modern times, but it has grown less crude The vulgar joke has gone out, due largely to the presence of women in modern political and business life. Nevertheless, I deny the charge that women have no sense of humor.
 "Humor is scarce today because the times don't permit it. The war, the intensity of the business strug- gle. high taxes, prohibition-all these things put people out of the mood for funny stories.
 Prohibition has done much to in- jure humor. Wit and wine have al- ways zone together. Of course there is whole new collection of jokes based on prohibition. But can't remember any of them. The subject is so painful that the mind dsmisses it as soon as possible. ''The jokes about high taxes aren't really jokcs-they are shrieks of pain and rage.

German Document ReUeaIS Plan to Strangle Industry
 And Commerce Of Haly
Peaceful Destruction Scheme Revealed in Secret
 Report Given Armament Conference Planned
 to Flood Italy With German-Made Goods at Prices That Would Kill Off Native Competition

WASHINGTON. Jan 12.-A sweep ing campaign of peaceful destruc- tion" has been launched by Germany against the commercial life of Italy, it was learned from a secret dOcu- ment of the German Foreign Office.
 The document, revealing Germany's plans for commercial aggression in Italy, was laid before the Armament Conference, it is said and materially influenced the decision not to reduce the standing armies of Italy and France.
 Revealed by the Italian Govern- ment, the document is a report for warded by Herr Stroheker, commer- cial counsellor at the German en- bassy in Rome, to the German minis ter for foreign affairs at Berlin.
 The German plan, according to the report, was:
 1. To flood Italy with made in Germany" goods at "below cost prices, thus ruining competitors in Italy.
 2. To purchase Italian industries through Italian sources.
 3. To further discontent among po- litical feudists in order to create pO- litical situations favoring Germany.
 "The figures of German commerce in Italy show that after the armistice our traders were not inactive in re- conquerng the Italian market con- pared with France, England and the United States" began the report. "1n situation for ourselves. taking ad- vantage of the malcontents, politl- cal situation which might in due course be favorable to us when Ger many should be faced by fresh com plications, it is necessary to strength en this discontent in order to con- solidate our situation through eco- homie action"
 The flooding of Italy with German goods was explained:
 First of all, it is necessary that systematic supply of German goods be sent here, even below cost price, to a considerable extent 1nundating tho Italian market with German goods, we will not only have place sympathetic to Germany, because Italian consumers gladly accept cheap articles, but we will also create a situation for Italian industry which will render any continuation of activity impossible"
 In the dye industry, said the docu- ment, "it is necessary in order to follow the method of peaceful de- struction advised by me- to prevent importation to Italy of outside col bring.

REAL Basket TANGLE
BETWEEN old RIVALS
HERE FRIDAY NIGHT

Among all rivals and athletic COM
petition, the game with Spiceland
Academy is looked to with more or
less Impotence by the Richmond Hi
basketball men. These two teams will
meet Friday night on the Coliseum
floor in a long-looked to contest.
Richmond wants to crack this outfit
more than any other which has been
met this year.
The fact of the matter is, Richmond
has been beaten on the Spiceland
floor in the last two seasons, and the
locals are getting set to wipe out this
record. No mercy will be spared
when the two teams meet at the Coli
scum Friday night. The Richmond
team is not going to be unsportsman-
like, but it is going to strive for a
victory by a margin which will over
shadow the past history between the
two schools.
Spiceland is to receive first-class
treatment at the hands of sportsmen
in this game, and the locals intend to
show them the real value of the high
est brand of craftsmanship.
One member of the local high school
team of this year was on the team
which played at Spiceland in the sea-
son of 1919-1920, and he well remem-
bers the conditions under which the
game was played there. Every mem
Der of the Richmond team left the
floor with injuries which were in
Cured in the game. Dale Harkins
was the forward who shared in the
treatment, and he will be among the
first to step out and show the road to
craftsmanship in the coming battle.
Coach Stenger has kept his men
fighting all year with clean intentions
and this has won II of the IA games,
the majority of which have been on
foreign floors.
Fridays game will be a real basket
ball tangle and is expected to draw A
capacity crowd.
