Lees Decision al Gettysburg" was
the last subject and was technically
and Interestingly treated by Major
Hugh r. Riley. Of the Officers Re-
serve Corps. BY a diagram on the
blackboard, he showed the several
roads. woods and hills which figured
in the strategic movements of this
famous and much studied battle.
Curiously enough, General Lees army
approached Gettysburg from the
north, while the Federal army, under
Meade. approached from the south.
This was due to the fact that Meade
was endeavoring to protect Washing
ton, while Lee was looking for some
important northern city. such as
Harrisburg, TO strike a decisive blow.
Major Riley showed. step by step, how
the three-days' battle progressed with
varying successes on both sides. and
how Lees final defeat was caused by
non-support at critical moments OF
| temporary victory IF Lee had won
at Gettysburg" Major Riley said. nc
one can tell what would have been the
effect on the whole war. But the fact
1 remains that Gettysburg was won
derful exhibition of American bravery
on both sides and is a rich study in
the annals of warfare"

LABOR IS READY TO
RULE ENGLAND
Decision Reached As Lead
ers Prepare For Another
Election
BY CHARLES NCANN
Leased Wire To The Age-Hern1d)


LONDON, Dec 12.-While newly
elected members of parliament are
still practicing their maiden speeches
before their home mirrors, prepare
tions for a new election have been
begun.
Labor has thrown down the gage
of battle, announcing that If re-
quested, it will accept the task of
England.
This decision was reached by the
executive committee of the labor
party, which also decided to attempt
the defeat of the Baldwin govern
ment when parliament opens.
Labor has determined to force the
issue, but the project of combating
the conservative government is sub
ject to change. Suspicion of plots
is making the laborites cautious. Tht
party will meet on the eve of the
assembling of parliament which con-
venes January 8, to decide whether
and how to defeat Baldwin.
And now the labor executive COM
mittee has passed resolution de-
elaring that lin view of the fact that
the critical parliamentary situation
may cause another general election
soon we recommend that Arthur Hen
derson and his staff proceed to finan-
cial and other arrangements for the
next election. which will be the most
in the history of the
party"
1--WE rejoice that the parliamentary
labor party continues to be the Of
fetal opposition in the house of
commons. Should the necessity I.
form a labor government arise, we
that the party immedi.
ately accept full responsibility for
the government of the country with
out compromising itself in any form
of coalition"
The general council of the trades
union congress, which is the govern
ing body of British labor, has also
the plan.

AIRPLANE ENGINES
FOR LIQUOR BOATS
SmuggIers Making Desperate
Efforts To Land Christ
mas Contrabrand

SEABRIGHT, n. j., Dec. 12.-(By
Associated Press )-Seeking desper-
ately to land before Christmas the
stock of liquor that awaited them on
Rum Row, Jersey runners today
were working at top speed to get
into the water the racing boats of
ever-increasing swiftness that are
being built for them along the coast.
The yards are turning out speed
boats driven by twin airplane motors
whose builders now boast for them
an ability to buck the waves at 40
miles an hour. The claim is made
that on trial runs the new boats can
race to the proposed 12-mile limit
and back in 40 minutes.
The speeders are of the 4numeral
"K" type, AS feet long, big breasted,
blunt steamed and capable of haul
ing 250 cases of liquor They are
bare of masts, cabins or sidelights.
They look like numbering old fish
boats and travel like hydroplanes.
State troopers are keeping sharp
watch on these latest additions to
the shore fleet.
The motor is the thing to the rum
runners. Since the government be-
San putting fast chasers into this
off shore fleet, the rum smugglers
have turned to airplane engines.
The bottle fisherman nowadays
who can't drive through a rip tide
at 80 miles an hour is considered out
Of date
Prohibition agents believe, how
ever, that the government mosquito
fleet, which thus far has been out
distanced in many chase, soon will
be on equal terms with the SNUG
glers.
For, according to Big Bill Rue,
head of the so county detectives
working in this section:
when the government captures a
fast runner, it puts crew of fed
eral men aboard, spikes a couple OF
machine guns on her bow and~makes
a rum chaser out of her. So the
bottle fishermen are being hunted
by their own fast ships. They can
make them as fast as they want to;
the governments bound to seize
some of them. Through superiority in
numbers or just sheer luck.
when the bottle fishermen reach
the limit of speed in their water
craft, the ones the government cap
lures will soon put the mosquito
fleet on an even basis. Then rum
running will be less of a runaway
and bottle fishing Will acquire new
thrills"

BANKERS APPROVE
u. S. REPRESENTATION
Want This Country On Finance In
quiry Committee

NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-Leading
international bankers today ex-
pressed approval of American repre-
sentation on the proposed committees
which are to investigate Germany's
finances. Such action, they stated,
presented an avenue by which a
way might be found out of the
present difficult situation.
Premier Poincare's plan to limit
the scope of the inquiry to Ger
many's present capacity to pay,
which now seems accepted as the
basis of negotiation, was approved
by large banking house, which ex-
pressed the opinion that no one
could definitely determine at this
time what Germany could pay over
a period of years.
While bankers were without in
formation today as to who may be
designated as Americas representa-
tives on the two committees the be-
lief was expressed that no one
would decline if invited to act in
this capacity.

Also Tried To Jail Man On
Framed Charge, He
TeStifieS

OKLAHOMA CITY, Dec. 12.-Testi-
n.ony that the Ku KluX Khan at
Shawnee, Okla, had participated IN
fIoggings and that in one instance it
conspired to send a man to the PEN
itentary for six months on a graudu-
lent charge, was introduced today by
Roy Montgomery, who said he was d
former member of the Shawnee Khan,
in the preliminary hearing of a mo-
ton by J. C. Walton, deposed COVER
nor, to quash indictments pending
against him in district court here.
Montgomery testified that the man
who was sentenced on false charges
of INN. orality was the proprietor OF
a garage in Shawnee. He said the
Shawnee klansmen had framed" the
accusation against him with the aid
of a woman because he had displayed
"a 100 per cent American" sign over
his garage. He was not Rlansman
and the members of the order re-
scented his use of their slogan, which
caused many klansmen to patronize
him.

Don't Let That Cold

That cold may turn into Flu"
Grippe or. even worse, Pneumonia,
unless you take care of it at once.
Rub good old Musterole on the con-
Sested parts and see how quickly
it brings relief.
Colds are merely congestion, Mus
terole, made from pure oil of mus
tard, camphor, menthol and other
simple ingredients, is a counter-irri-
tant which stimulates circulation
and helps break up the cold.
AS effective as the messy old mus
tard plaster, does the work with
out blister.
Just rub it on with your finger
tips. You will feel a warm Jingle as
it enters the pores, then a cooling
sensation that brings welcome relief
