MUNICH.—An example of the ef
fect of the revolution upon the fame
of German military celebrities is
afforded in the fact that the re
tirement of two well known generals,
Krafft von Dellmensingen and Count
| Botmer apparently caused not even
a ripple on public consciousness.
With scarcely a word or requiem,
these two formerly famous army
leaders, both Bavarians, slipped in
ito retirement and apparent oblivion.
1 Even the monarchical papers an
i nounced their action only in small
; type paragraphs.
General Krafft formerly was
^chief of the Bavarian general staff
and afterward until the end of the
war, leader of one of Germany’s
most famous military units, the
Bavarian Alpine Corps. His corps
probably saw as much heavy fight
\ 'n£ as any in the German army.
After serving as chief of staff to
j Crown Prince Rupprecht. General
Krafft led his corps through the
battles against the Italians, Serbs.
Rumanians, in Macedonja and at
j many points on the Western front,
including Verdun. Genera! Krafft
came into conflict with the new
government soon after the revolu
tion. which probably is one reason
i for his retirement.
Ueneral Count Bothmer was the
only Bavarian other than the Crown
Prince Rupprecht and Prince Leo
pold to lead a whole army. He had
retired in 1909. but was recalled to
active service for the war and was
i given command of an army corps in
i the Linsingen army and with it
; stormed Zwinn, the Russian position
• on the Stryi river. As a reward for
his success he received command
of the Southern army and was as
signed to cover Galicia, which he
j protected against numerous Russian
i assaults. It was his army that finally
I drove the Russians out of Galicia in
,the summer of 1917.
GERMAN SALARIES ARE
CRITICISED BY PRESS
National
Soldiers
MUNICH.—-The conservative cen
ter or Catholic organ of Bavaria,
the Courier, which since the revolu
tion has made a feature of the cost
of the new government, takes de
light in printing, with appropriate
comment, the salaries of the em
ployes of the Central government
in Berlin, as somewhat reluctantly
announced by People’s Deputy
Landsberg, before the
Council of Workmen and
Councils.
The forty-five members
council to which Landsberg belongs
receive $12.50 a day, annuually
$4,565, or, as the Courier points
out, the equivalent of the salaries
of over-presidents of courts; forty
eight confidential assistants and
forty-two couriers are paid $10 a
day, annually therefore $3,650, or
as much as German senatorial and
government presidents.
“Yes, we certainly have done
well,” remarks the Courier.

COSTLY PLANT,
BUILT TOIL WAR
—
, CHARLESTON, W. Va.—When
the United States entered the war
a monster munition plant was pro
jected at Nitro, 14 miles from here
on the Kanawha river, and a city
sprang- into existence almost in a
week Twenty thousand men were
working there, and long rows of
houses were built by the govern
ment to shelter its employes and
their families.
Activity at Nitro practically ceas
ed at the signing of the armistice
and thousands of men left Nitro
and Charleston. The last develop
ments are an inventory of the plant
and equipment, just begun, and the
changing of the plant into an ord
nance supply station. There are only
1600 men here engaged in taking
inventory and guarding the build
ings. The war department has
recommended the razing of every
other row of bungalows so hastily
constructed. This step has been
ordered as a matter of fire pre
vention.
The wheels of the plant have been
silent ever since the Hercules Pow
der Co. turned back the industry to
the government two months ago
and no offical announcement has
been received from Washington as
to what disposition will be made of
the expensive proposition.
BLOODED COW MAKES
NEW BUTTER RECORD
SA( RAMEN'TO.—A new Pacific
coast record for short-time butter
production has been established at
Knightsen, Contra Costa county, by
Adirondac Weitske Dairy Maid, a
registered Holstein cow, according
to H, V, Bridegord, one of the
owmers of the cow. In an official
test under the supervision of Uni
versity of California testers, she
made 41.013 pounds of butter from
831.7 pounds of milk in seven days.
The former coast record of a frac
tion more than forty pounds was
held by Tilly Alcartra, holder of
the world's long-time butter and
milk production record.

JAPS GET CORNER
ON RAILWAY WOOD
\ LADIV OSTOCK—The Japanese
profiting by the low value of the
ruble, have bought up all the aspen
trees in the Ussuri region and this
has caused a scarcity of fuel for the
use of the Ussuri railway, says the
newspaper Dalekaya Okraina, which
adds that all the local inhabitants
have been mobilized by the Japan
ese to prepare the wood for export.
A proposition is under consideration
to increase the tax on exportation
of the aspen logs so as to stop the
Japanese from shipping them out of
the country.
"Seattle is full of Alaskans and
all are anxious to return to the
North. said E. \ Boyle, manager
of the Cordova Drug Co., who re
turned to Cordova from the Out
side recently. "There is much td^k
about Alaska and Cordova is men
tioned more than any other port.
There is no doubt but that there will
be a great influx of people here
this spring.”
