CLEVER THIEF IS AN ARTIST ALSO
Matches Strips From Two $ Valued Tapestries

weimar, July 20 tsa - Two valu- able Gobelln tapestries Of the Wart- burg. dating from the 18th century. have been mutilated by unknown thieves with tho obvious intention of selling abroad the eXCiscd strips as one piece oi tapestry. After the revolution both carpets, which be- longed to the Grand Ducal House of Saxony were included in the list of national works Of art of value not to be sold abroad" Recently, in spite of the protest of the Wart- burg foundation, the Lord Chamber lain of the Grand Ducal House sold the two tapestries to an art col- lector In Cologne. AS they were not being sold 10 8 foreign buyer, the protest Of the Wartburg foundation ; proved futile.
 The new owner thereupon sent them to the Kaiser Friedrich mu- scum of Berlin. for the purpose Of obtaining Dr. Demmler's expert opinion on their exact historical significance and value. He decided that both Gobelins were of South German workmanship of about the middle of the 18th century. Both represent the Conquest of Loves Castle" in sequel, and both are SS centimeters long; one being PA meters in width and the other 2.26 meters. It was discovered, however that 8 strip of 90 centimeters in width had been cut from one Gobe- lin, while from the other a strir so, centimeters wide was missing.
 The thief performed the excisior 90 cieverly, however, that botf missing strips can be readily com, bined to form q common design.
 The Cologne art collector re scinded his purchase.
 The sequel of 1t all Is big sti, in the Thuringian diet. The Socia Democrats protested that no ap prepriate steps have been taken b. the government to recover tn missing parts. The Lord Chamber lain has published a communiqu in which he calls attention to tn legitimacy of the sale and threaten to prosecute anyone insinuating tha the tapestries were mutilated witt the connivance of any member 0 the, Grand Ducal household.

 SPY SENSATIONAL

SAN FRANCISCO, May S.-The first touch of dramatics was recorded in the testimony of Von Damn, who with other Germans during the war, was ever under fire of being called a spy, which he denied.
 He became so emotional during the cross examination of the court that a five minute recess had to be de- clared.
 That's a damn lie!" he shouted in response to query that he had driven on pier in Honolulu, which was on fire, and attempted to throw off the lines of German vessel which was in- termed.
 Won Damn later apologised to the court for allowing his feelings to get the best of him, and the case was con- tinued.

FRANCE WILL NOT DISARM UNTIL
 GETS SECURITY
(By Associated Pregs)


 GENEVA, May 9.-France has told the world that she will not reduce her armament, restrict production of arms or limit the shipments of munitions to her allies until the world assures her that she will have security against invasion by foreign powers.
 Her position was stated by Paul Boncour, leader of the socialist party in the Chamber of Deputies, in an ad- dress before forty-four nations, includ- ing the United States and Germany, at a conference for the control of traf- fife in arms.
 Boncour frankly warned delegates that the conference is doomed to fail ure unless France obtains some guar. antee pact insuring her frontier from invasion.
 The French speaker warned his col. leagues that there would be another frightful war if they neglected secur- ity problems and seek to build false foundation for peace by reducing ar maments. He added that every na- tiOn will arm to the teeth against an attack unless assured that the rest of the world will rush to her defense in case she is attacked.

(Rv Associated Press

(By Associated Press)
 WASHINGTON, D. C., May B. The ability of the government to up hold laws against desperadoes who have reached a point where they do not hesitate to kill, is at stake in the navy's blockade against rum row.
 Even now bootlegging interests on shore, cut off from their sources of supply. are making efforts to retail ate. The result is that real war is now on between the government and the rum runners; war in which blood will probably flow freely.
 Threats against lives of officers and men of the dry fleet, and the shooting of one man of the guard, has brought word from Washington to shoot to kill"
 It was announced that nationwide blockade will be inaugurated. This means that the blockade now existing on the Atlantic seaboard will be ex- tended to the Pacific and Great Lakes ports, and to all ports of entry into Canada and the Mexican border.
