Paintings of Jehan Perreal,
18th Century Artist.

CHICAGO, January 12.-Six years
Of search and photography have re-
covered for the world of art IL, and
possibly l3, long-lost CanVaSes of Jehan
Perreal, fifteenth century French court
painter, Dr. Maurice Goldblatt, Chi
cago connoiSSeur, announced.
Perreal, painter to the French Sov-
erignS Charles VIII, Louis XII and
Francis I, is considered by many critics
the greatest of the French primitives.
Through the centuries artists have
been puzzled by the disappearance OF
PerrealS work But DR.. Goldblatt said
yesterday that his hunt Of six years
had revealed that the Perreals were not
lost: they just were not recognized.
THE Portrait Of Young Man" in
the New York Metropolitan Museum
furnished the clue, Photographed and
the photograph enlarged many times,
piece Of paper held by the subject re-
vealed the words, "Opus Jehan Perreal,
1888" The characteristics of the work
and the camera helped DR.. Goldblatt
identify also "The Portrait Of M.
Bellefouriere" of the Metropolitan as
true Perreal. Two more were found
In the Louvre, Paris.
Since then Dr. Goldblatt, originally
commissioned by the French govern
ment, has found Perreals in three New
York private collections, in one Phila-
delphia collection, in the National Gal
leries in London and two in private
English collections. He is still work.

tary and governmental authorities
took hold of the problem Of relief
and rehabilitation for thousands Of
homeless and destitute.
But it was not necessary to figure
the Caribbean coast town Of Santa
Cruz Del Sur in these plans, for the
tidal wave that followed the storm
left it unfit for habitation. It may
never be rebuilt on the sandy shore.
The town presented a picture Of
pitiful desolation. It was nothing but
a shambles, and where $500 persons
had lived were only soldiers, sanitary
workers, and few city officials.
Here and there rose the smoke OF
a funeral pyre, since 1t became ne
cessary to burn bodies. The grave
diggers could not bury the dead fast
enough for the sanitary safety of the
few who remained on guard.
Capt. FREDERICK Tomeu, on his ar
rival here. said 300 bodies were buried
Friday and Thursday, but cremation
was ordered when every pile Of debris
disclosed further dead.
The official estimates of the dead
in the storm rose to 100 during the
night, but the exact number may new
er be known, as many in Santa Cruz
probably were carried to sea by the
retreating tidal waters.

BECAUSE OF COLD
Future First Lady Of Land Or
ders President-Elect to
Bed Over Weekend

Albany, N. Y, Nov. 12.-(P)-His
wife and physician have taken charge
of Franklin D. Roosevelt, the next
president Of the United States, who
was resting in bed Saturday to cure
a cold.
For the first time since he began
his strenuous campaign for the pres
ic.ncy last July, Governor Roosevelt
was resting at home with no visitors
and no scheduled appointments to
discuss state or national affairs. Mrs.
Roosevelt, who arrived Thursday
night from New York, advised him
to remain in bed over the weekend.
A physician found the president
elect had little fever, but no infec-
ton of the throat or lung congestion.
Roosevelt hoped to be able to con-
tine Saturday, with his secretary at
his bedside, some of the correspond
ence he dictated Friday when he was
not sleeping or resting. He spent
part of the day reading more of the
congratulatory messages that have
been pouring In since his election. To
some of these he dictated replies.
Turning to state affairs he directed
the communication of four months of
the sentence of Abraham Isenberg of
New York city, convicted of grand
larceny. Isenberg's sentence would
have expired next April.
The governor thought until Friday
he had shaken off the cold, contract
ed the last day Of his campaign when
he rode bareheaded in an open car
during a rain. He had planned to
spend this weekend at his Hyde
Park residence, but Cancelled the trip.

Though he was believed not serious

EVEN WET LEADERS
HAVE DOUBTS about
BEER BY CHRISTMAS
Admit That Opponents Could
Block Proposal During
Lame Duck Session
ROOSEVELT VOTE MOUNTS
Appropriation Bills and Econ
omy Legislation Loom For
Short Session

Washington, Nov. 12.-(F-While
enthusiasts in and out of congress are
interpreting the immense Democratic
vote as forecasting beer by Christ
mas, some sponsors of Volstead act
modification join their opponents in
conceding grave difficulties lie in the
way.
The primary one, recognized by
drys, vets and everybody in-between
is that the session of congress which
opens next month is so short as to
make it possible for even handful
of members to block anything they
oppose.
This has not kept beer possibilities
from forming prime topic OF politi-
cal conversations. In rapid success
sion have come expressions from such
senators as Borah Rep.. Idaho), Reed
(Rep., Pa, Byrnes Dem., s. c., Rob-
inson (Dem., Ark), Bingham Rep.
Conn.,, and Representative McDuffie
of Alabama, Democratic whip of the
house.
Vote Above 100000
Their statements have all but OBJ
scured attention from the continual
sitting in of election returns that have
pushed Franklin D. Roosevelt's pop
ular vote above 81 ,000, 900, for plur-
ality of more than 100000 over
President Hoover. Norman Thomas
Socialist, topped other minor candi-
dates easily with over 100000 votes
in the half of the nations precincts
reporting.
The thoroughness of the Democratic
sweep has meant: a record Democrat
ic margin of over 200 in the next
house: senate majority that probably
will last until 1899; a still-doubtful
short-term senate with the decision
resting on the close Colorado contest
between Karl C. Schuyler, Republic
can, and Walter Walker, Democrat,
and the vote of Senator Shipstead,
Minnesota Farmer-Laborite.
With the exception of Borah, the
congressional leaders named have
voiced the opinion beer legislation
should be considered and enacted at
the December session. Borah's COM
ment that he does not expect beer
to prove an exception to the general
rule that controversial questions are
not disposed of in short sessions was
concurred in not only by dry organi-
cation leaders but even by a few anti
prohibition chiefs.
Filibuster Only Way
Bingham said "the only way drys
can defeat beer legislation at the
short session is by filibuster" and
added that he was informed Borah
would not use these tactics. But
even without them, it was recognized
on both sides that the time left to
the dying congress will be crowded
with annual appropriation bills,
economy efforts and other essential
legislation.
Reed and others are urging the ne
cessity Of tax bill this winter. Here
the modificationists pitch in with
their talking point Of beer tax to
produce millions. While drys dispute
all high estimates, many modification
lists claim as much as $40O, OO0, 900 can
be had from this source,

RECORDS OF WAR VETERANS
LIST hEROISM - BRAVERY
ARE PUBLISHED BY STATE

The service records OF North Da-
kota's $4,000 World War veterans are
now an open book" to all who care
to examine them as result OF the
enterprise Of Adjutant General G. A.
Fraser and his staff.
They are contained in four volumes
recently completed and now being
distributed to such organizations and
institutions as would ordinarily be
interested and comprise one of the
most valuable historical documents
ever issued in this state.
The distinguished and common
place are grouped side by side in
alphabetical order in this account OF
North Dakota's part in the struggle
of IA years ago. Every man who en-
listed and served from this state is
mentioned, together with the place
and type Of service rendered. The
accounts may be only few lines OF
a full page, depending upon the
length of service and the official rec
ord.
Five other states have issued sim
liar volumes on the records OF Its
sons in service but none Is as COM
plete and detailed as that published
in North Dakota.
It is unique in that 1t lists the bat
tie record, II any, Of every man from
North Dakota. Most Of the discharges
issued at the close OF the World wal
failed to contain this information
and it was necessary to employ six
clerks in the war department at
Washington to search the records
and compile the facts needed.
These were added to the records
available In the state and the result
is four large volumes, comprising the
largest single printing job ever done
in North Dakota. The mechanical
work was done by the Bismarck Trib-
une company. It required eight
months to complete the Job.
