It is amusing to nnd the .'lexica,
government protesting to the stat
department, after forty-five years o
ruthless warfare on Americans, be
cause of the ljmching of a Grease
murderer by indignant Texans. I
was ret right, ct course, for th
Texans to take the lav.’ into the
own hands :n the manner reported
hut the American government, b;
its indifference to Mexican lawless
ness, has driven border citizens t;
extreme measures.
Approximately nine million wi’
be expended by tee American Re,
Cross duaing the fiscal year endin'
next June, for the relief of formei
service men disabled during th>
world war. Since the care of forme:
soldiers and their dependents ha:
the first call upon Red Cross serv
ices, the national body will spent
13,030,692 for such relief, and ev
try chapter practically adding to thf
relief, the total will reach the esti
mated figure. These funds will b<
used for services the Federal gov
eminent is not authorized to rendei
and for which it has neither fund:
nor facilities.
Care of the ex-service men arc
their families is regarded as a pri
mary Red Cross responsibility, ant
that it should be neither indiscrim
inate nor niggardly require patien!
study of an- intricate problem and
continual readjustments to situa
tions as they exist and develop.
“The function of the Red Cross,’
said John Barton Payne, nations
chairman, in this year s annual re
port, “is not to usurp the govern
men's responsibilties, but to sup
plement , official activity; flanr.cn
iously cooperate with official plans
and methods: and seek out the in
dividual in the standardized ma.-.
and his pecular needs.
"The Red Cross acquires ar.d d.s
tributes infomation among the met
and their families: acquaints the L
S. Veterans Bureau with the per
sona’ equation in individual cases
prepares and furnishes comforts, re
creation, and the many necessary
services which the government, bj
its very nature, can procure only
from voluntary assistance. These ob
ligations and privileges fall primar
ily to the Red Cross chapters, whose
volunteer members are kept ac
quainted with the official situ&tior
through liaison Red Cross officer
attached to the District office o;
the Veterans’ Bureau.’’
On Armistice Day, hiovemberll
when the American Red Cross op
ened its annual Roll Call for mem
bership, there were under treatmeu
in government hospitals more that
25.000 veterans.

. conr.rees were agreed should appiv
; to the classification of enlisted per
■ sonnel.
-i For one thing it was the judg
■ men: of the civilian conferees, all
: of whom had war-time draft exper
• ience. that work necessary in the
■ army should be classified by occu
. pations in order that the classifica
■ tion of men called to the colors
■ could be expedited and their assign
ments be based on the similarity of
their civil training and military
work they were best fitted to per
1; form.
i It was also believe that the classifi
; cation of men should begin when
' they were called by local draft
baords and not await their arrival
at mobilization centers.
Another point brought out was
the difficulty of dealing in the army
with men of low mental caliber. A
suggestion was made the regulation
should prevent such men from be
I ing called for active military ser
vice.
The conferees were in harmony
also as the desirability of using men
available only for limited military
service from the beginning of the
' operation of the_ draft law and not
deferring such cases for later treat
ment.
To meet the problem of dealing
with limited service and occupation
al specialists the suggestion was
made that clearing pool centers for
i each of these groups might be es
eablished and that these pools for
further assignment.
The plan would work especially well
in distribution of specially qualified
occupational specialists it was held.

BERLIN. Nov. 16.—Statistics
compiled during the past summer
shew that there is a total of one
hundred and fifty thousand foreig
ners livin'? in the occupied territory
on the Rhine belonging- to Prussia,
and in addition to this number ap
proximately 90,000 troops and 4,
000.000 forein civilians attached to
the force of occupation.
These figures, however, cover only
about one-half of the whole occup
ied area, and do not include cer
tain sections belonging to the Pal
atinate. Hesse and Baden.
Dutch nationals lead with 56.583
persons. They are followed by the
Czechs with 13,424, then the Bel
gians with 6.279, and the Italians,
the Flinch and the Norwegians -with
between 4,500 and 4.900 each. The
number of resident Americans is
not given.
The expense allowances granted
to members of the Interallied com
missions in Germany, in addition to
their monthly salaries, have been
increased three-fold since the be
ginning of September on account
1 of the mounting cost of living. The
individual monthly allowances fol

other generals and presiding colon
els and lieutenant colonels 229,425
marks: other colonels, lieutenant

WILLIAM S. HART IS SKILLED
HORSEMAN FROM BOYHOOD
When William S Harr was fifteen
years old he left the Dakota Terri
tory for New York City. He lived
in the vicinity of Fifty-sixth street
with his parents. Even at that ape
the famous Paramount western
star, whose own productions are re
cognized as the greatest of their
kind, was a skilled horseman. He
loves horses and naturally, they love
him.
He wanted to work when not go
ing to school and one day, at 130
West Fifty-sixth street, he entered
a riding academy to ask for a job.
He was a real rider, having learned
when among the Indians, with his
father, in earlier boyhood. They
gave him a chance to work out
skittish cobs in Central Park and
he made quite a bit of pocket money
thereby.
Two years ago while on a Liberty
Bond tour, Mr. Hart dropped into
the Fifty-sixth street studio of the
Famous Players-Lasky—which he
had not hitherto visited. To his as
tonishment he found that it was
the old riding academy of his boy
hood now transformed. It brought
back old times to the star.
Mr. Han is author of “The Test
ing Block", probably his most re
markable western picture, which will
be shown at the Coliseum tonight
and tomorrow night- Eva Novak
his leading woman and heads a
capable supporting cast.
Mrs. E. Coke Hill is a passenger
or, the steamer Victoria, enroute to
Interior Alaska to join her husband,
who is at present in the Kantishna
looking after his mail contract.
Fred Crewe, who has been in
Nenana during the last couple of
weeks making birch hark Christmas
cards for the Nenana and Fair
banks public, will return to the up
per town tomorrow. He has dispos
ed of a large number of the cards
during the last day or two.
