One Time Millionaire Convicted VI
Killing Drug Clerk Is Twice Saw

Chicago.-Russell SCOTS relatives
and friends have saved him from the
gallows.
The former millionaire, convicted
of numbering a drug clerk and twice
saved from execution within a few
hours of the time set for the spring
ing of the trap, has been declared in
sane.
A jury in Judge Joseph B. Davids
court, after listening to testimony
and legal wrangling for four days, de-
cided that Scott's life should be spar
ed on the ground of insanity and the
prisoner will be sent to the Chester
asylum.
Under the law, if Scott RECEIVERS his
reason the death penalty must be ex-
ecuted. but no person in similar
case has ever been hanged. Scott
emerged from his ordeal with little
show of emotion. His wife, Mrs. Ca
Uterine Scott, her face etched with
lines OF grief, paced the floor of the
court room and corridors almost all
of the three and half hours that the
jury was celebrating. With her was |

most of the time, lost in thought.

Poor PAYERS: Good Collectors

The French ruling class are not very anxious to
pay their debts, but they are good collectors They
owe Wall Street several billion dollars but when
ever Wall Streets representatives suggest check
by return mail or at least sincere promise to paw
Paris sOlons make noise something like the pop
ping of champagne bottles.
If the United States government persists in dun
ming France for her war debts, France may come
back by charging the American government rent
for the use of French trenches. This seems quite
fair. Wall Street actually conquered Europe in
the bloody business campaign known by the digni-
fled title of the ''world war"
There are other ways in which France can get
back at her creditors. Wealthy Americans are try
ing to get over the boredom of living by participat
ing in gambling games and other recreations that
involve sums of money. They usually leave their
money in the gambling dens good portion of
the profits finds its way into the jeans of the
French politicians who run the government One
OF those who helped the French ruling class to make
ends meet is the son of General Wood governor
of the Philippine Islands. Young Wood made a
lot of money gambling in Wall Street He spent it
in France gambling where he was on the outside.
The generals cashed a bad check and fed
to Spain. The French are hot in pursuit. $4,000
francs may not look like lot of money to the gen
erals son, but at the rate the French franc is
travelling unless the Paris police catch young Wood
before the franc descends further they will be ow
ing him money.

NOw Ii Is Being Told

Woodrow Wilson loaned or donated 81 500, 00O,-
600 liberty loan money to European governments
after the war was over without the authorization
of congress- according to a series of articles now
appearing in a newspaper syndicate
This news can now be published, but if it was
made public during the war the person responsible
for dispensing the information would find himself
behind the bars.
One of the juicy items of news picked at random
out Of this scandal dish is connected with Rou-
mania That country wanted money very badly
after the war was over. Its government was busy
crushing the labor unions and making forays on
the territory of it's neighbors, taking particular
care to grab whatever it could from Soviet Russia
which was then surrounded by armed enemies and
torn by civil war.
The treasury department was without authority
to advance any funds to countries not at war But
the state department actually suggested to the
Germany in order to get over the congressional
obstacle. Roumania did not have the nerve to do
this so Wilson gave them the money anyway
Another scandal that is rehashed is the Bak-
meteff affair. That fashionable burglar lived for
years in luxury on the United States treasury
while posing as the representative of government
that was as dead as the dodo Not alone that, but
he used those funds to foster
activities against the Soviet government
The reign of the socalled progressive President
Wilson was one of the most reactionary in the his
tory Of this country. That mountebank went to
extremes that an open reactionary would hesitate
to go. Those who expect anything from progress
sves in the White House should take a lesson from
the experience with Wilson.

An Unknown Soldier Identified

One of the most novel and successful stunts used
by the capitalist class to dope the minds of the
workers with patriotic emotion after the end of the
world war was the unknown soldier dodge.
Millions of workers were legally murdered by
the ruling class during the prolonged tragedy.
When the war was over, the generals were given
large sums of money and titles The privates those
who survived, faced starvation.
But the ruling class responsible for the greatest
murder carnival in human history hit on the bright
idea that the remaining cannon fodder would ac-
cept "honor" in lieu of food, clothing and shelter
To show how democratic the ruling classes were,
they picked the shattered form of what was once
a human being from the corpse pile and honOred it.
Each government picked dead body and "hOnOr-
ed" it. Monuments were erected over the graves
of the unknown soldiers and generals who got their
first look at the trenches on a sightseeing tour
when the war was over, have busted themselves
placing wreaths on the poor victims graves
But the French government pulled a boner.
Their unknown piece of cannon fodder was made
the target for speeches than there were shots
fired during the world war; He was given credit
for all the virtues that ever lodged in a human
being But, drat his hide, he turns out to be, not
a patriotic French poiliu, but hated "boche," or
in other words a German.
This is terrible. 1t is liable to damage the I'M
known soldier business irreparably. Perhaps all
the unknown soldiers corpses of the once hated
enemy. Chemists may exhume them and submit
their ashes to analysis to learn whether they are
Frenchmen, Germans Irish Dutch, Liberians,
Poles, Chinese Bushmen. A promising and
fourishing industry is threatened with disaster.
