*' PUT ON GERMANY
BY OWN PEOPLE
: *
i BERLIN, July 20.—The report of
the second subcommittee of the com
mittee of Investigation on President
Wilson’s peace effort during the win
ter of 1916-17, prepared by Prof. Sln
sheimer, former Socialist member of
the reichstag. draws the conclusion
that President Wilson’s action made
peace overtures possible, but that
the German government, not availing
itself of them, instead took a stand
for unrestricted U-boat warfare.
The report, made available in full
here today, is signed by six members
of the different parties. It is a grave
(indictment of Germany’s dictators
Vit 'the time. The report shows how
the economists of Chancellor von
Bethmann-Hollweg’s civil government
did not believe unrestricted U-boat
warfare could insure Germany vic
tory. As the gravest mistake the re
port mentions the fact that Ameri
ca’s resources were completely un
derestimated. ,
The report says it was argued the
submarines would prevent the trans
portation of /American troops, "if
there were Any.” It further de
—s that the submarines failed to
t •••■arise sufficiently neutral ship
ping, that insufficient attention
was paid to the anti-U-boat measures
of Germany's enemies, and, finally,
that when America entered the war
the military authorities failed to
make a.d.«»uuate provision for its
inevitable lengthy protraction, j
That the German public was gross
ly misled is a further charge in the
report. The report mentions notably
Dr. Franz von Papen’s message to
General Erich von Falkenhayn, for
mer chief of the German staff, ‘‘if
you fail to keep the United States
. out you have lost the war.”
i Appended to the majority report
is an interesting document giving a
marginal note in the former emper
or’s hand on a memorial from Ad
miral von Holtzendorff, then head
of the German naval general staff, in
which the latter suggested a refusal
to the proposal by the American am
bassador at Vienna that, to avoid
f embroilment, American ships going
to England should not be torpedoed.
The kaiser wrote: “I agree. To be
declined. An end must be made once
and for all to negotiations with
America. If Wilson wants war he
can make it and have it.”

Man Gives $72 for ‘"Roll of $400,”
Gets $1 Bill Around Tissue Paper
BOSTON, Mass.—With $72, earned
as .first class marine fireman, incau
tiously reposing in a pistol pocket,
Antonio Sapara crossed the gang
plank to fill his lungs with glorious
shore breeze and see what the old
town offered in recreation. It was a
fine, inspiring day.
Tony only got a few blocks when
by a twist of fortune, something
dropped a roll of S4OO right in front
of him.
Tony dived, essaying to harpoon it
with eager fingers, but another man
of even quicker impulse nosed him
out and picked it up—and the loser
just then turned a corner.
The lightning fingered stranger
here greatly brightened the horizon
of the able seaman by offering to di
vide. In fact he had to offer some
thing, for Tony saw the money early
and might make it a mortal issue on
the spot.
Tony Ready to Negotiate
Against Tony’s tentative sugges
tion of following the owner and mak
ing restoration, the stranger brought
ample argument that the man was
out of sight and far away.
Tony sighed regrets and stood to
negotiate.
If the sun wasn’t shining sufficient

Wife and Chicken Fail to Mix;
Independence Day End Is Row
Leading your pal to a fountain of
Bacchanalian nectar may be the
proper convivial spirit, but It doesn’t
go in law, as was established re
cently in Jefferson market court by
Magistrate Fleischmann.
On July 5, according to the story
told in court by Mrs. Mattle Bustin,
of No. 144 West 28th street. New
York, Henry Alston, thirty-nine, of
the same address, called at her
apartment and told her husband,
Henry, that he knew of a splendidly
moist way in which to celebrate In
dependence Day.
Henry, the husband, was not reluc
tant. The two men, brothers-in-law,
ferried to Hoboken and spent the day
and a large section of the night in
wrapping their lips around generous
libations, it wag charged.
When they stumbled into Bustin’s
apartment, both made for the icebox
and dragged therefrom roasted
Snores Interrupted,
He Shoots Up Saloon
An unidentified man, about thirty,
wearing a blue suit and straw hat,
was sleeping in a back room of John
Corrigan’s case, at'No. 928 Eighth
avenue, recently, when he began snor
ing.
"Here, you’ll have to get out,” said
Joe Jordan, the bartender.
“All right,” said the stranger, “but
I’ll be back.”
At 7:30 o’clock about twelve men
were drinking whatever Corrigan
sells, when the erstwhile snoring
stranger entered with a pistol and
ordered "Hands up!” Up went the
hands.
The stranger fired once in the gen
eral direction of Jordan, the bullet
smashing the mirror behind the bar.
The customers, with the exception of
one man, ran for the exits and es
caped. The stranger with the pistol
grabbed a $lO bill from Jordan's
upraised hand and fired a parting
shot as he backed toward the door
and vanished.
This shot struck the head of the
customer who did not leave with the
others. He. is Herbert Dwyer, twen
ty-six, of No. 152 West Forty-Ninth
street, formerly a lieutenant in the
British army. The bullet inflicted
a scaln wound, which was dressed
at Roosevelt hospital.
Aged Indian Hangs Self
OKTAHA, Okla.—A record was
broken here the other afternoon when
Jeff Oliver, 80, a fullblooded Indian,
ended his life by hanging.
According to Indian agency officials
this is the first instance ever recorded
wherein an Indian indulged in the
act of self-destruction,
man, the next proposition ran his cup
of joy quite ovtr.
"I don’t need money myself,” said
the generous stranger. “Got plenty
of my own. How much have you?”
“Seventy-two dollars,” said Tony
excitedly, fishing up his wages.
“Well, you look like a deserving
man. Gimme your $72 and take the
whole $400."
At this stage Caparo didn’t care
if his ship never went to sea again.
Let it sink at the dock and he’d buy
hirtiself another. If money came so
easy ashore what was the use of
working in a stoke-hole for it?
Actual Value, One Dollar
Incidentally he hopped into a door,
way to enumerate again and see if,
by some mystic turn, it hadn’t dou
bled in value in his pocket.
The S4OO roll consisted of a dol
lar bill wrapped around a wad of tis
sue paper.
Policeman Singer heard Tony
scream from three blocks down and
saw them come a-running. He
grabbed Sam Steich, of Philadelphia,
a reputed slim-slam man, but didn’t
find the money on him. On the the
ory that he passed it out of hand
while chased, police are looking for
two others. Antonio will testify in
Central court, then go back aboard
and work.
chicken. A fracas as to which should
get the -white meat awoke Mrs. Bus
tin, who announced that neither
should get so much as one of the dis
carded feathers.
Both Henrys thereupon read a new
declaration of independence to her.
Mrs. Bustin added a few amend
ments of her own, and Alston took
issue bv propelling various articles
of kitchenware in Mrs. Bustin’s di
rection.
The next fifteen minutes witnessed
an old-fashioned family free-for-all,
with other tenants spectators.
Six detectives from the West 30th
street police station separated the
chicken from the combatants, and
the combatants from one another.
Magistrate Fleischmann sent Als
ton to jail to be sentenced. Henry
the husband, discreetly remained
away from court. Mrs. Bustin in
formed the magistrate that she would
"attend to Henry.”

I EARLY ARRIVALS
ARE READY FOR
DRY CONVENTION
LINCOLN, Neb., July 20.—Early
arrivals among delegates to the Pro
hibition party's national convention
today were discussing chiefly the at
titude of William J. Bryan should the
convention offer him the leadership
of the Prohibition ticket next fall.
Frequent mention of Rev. William
A ("Billy”) Sunday as his running
mate brought the statement ?rom Mr.
Sunday that he would be willing to
accept the nomination if chosen.
"Mr. Bryan’s recent statement in
the Commoner that a man must ac
cept such an honor if it is offered,”
said W. G. Calderwood, vice chair
man of the national committee, “is
looked upon by us as tantamount to
a declaration that he will accept. Wfe
are preparing to go to the mat in this
campaign and we are going to nomi
nate a ticket that will draw hundreds
of thousands of votes.”
The auditorium where the conven
tion will open tomorrow was receiv
ing its ffnal decorative touches today.
Various prohibition banners were
hung about the hall.
BILLY SUNDAY READY 7
TO ACCEPT PLACE
HOOD RIVER, Ore., July 20.—1 f
William Jennings Bryan deems such
a move advisable and if Mr. Bryan
accepts the nomination for president
on the prohibition ticket, Rev. Wil
liam A. ("Billy”) Sunday declared
today, he stands ready to accept the
nomination for vice president.
“I have not heard from Mr.
Bryan,” said Mr. Sunday, but have
been in communication with the pro
hibition party committee. If Mr.
Bryan thinks it necessary that the
prohibitionists put a ticket in field
or that existing circumstances point
to a possible undermining of the
purposes of the eighteenth amend
ment tthen you may count on us get
ting into effective action.”

Disease Stamped Out,
Pellagra Hospital at
Spartanburg to Close
SPARTANBURG, S. C„ July 20.
Announcement was made in Spar
tanburg today that the pellagra hos
pital, which was established here by
the federal government in 1914,
along with a special investigating
commission, will be discontinued De
cember 31. This information was
given out by Surgeon Joseph Gold
berger, of the United States public
health service. According to this
official, the -disease has been practi
cally stamped out, and further re
search and investigation is unneces
sary.
Giving as one of the causes of
pellagra the eating of improper food.
Dr. Goldberger stated that one of
the chief reasons why the disease
has almost disappeared is the fact
that the classes in which it was for
merly so prevalent have prospered
so in recent years that their finan
cial condition has enabled them to
provide better food for themselves.
The theory that eating too much
corn was the principal cause of pel
lagra has long been exploded and
the cause has been established as
the wrong combination of foods.
The work of the hospital and com
mission recently has been to educate
people concerning proper diets as a
most effective means of preventing
the disease and recovering from it.
The work in Spartanburg has cov
ered careful research and investiga
tion in seven of the mill villages in
the city and surrounding county. It
is stated that in one village in 1916
as many as 500 cases of pellagra
were found. At that time the dis
ease was believed to be most pre
valent in this section of the south,
and for this reason, the federal com
mission was established here.
Up until the last appropriation was
made, between $30,000 and $40,000
had been available each year for the
carrying on of the work. The last
appropriation was for only $16,500,
and the activities of the commission
and hospital have necessarily been
curtailed for the last few months.

Signature of
Senate Bill HSould Stop
t( Mixed ’ Bathing and Put
More Clothing on Nymphs
And now we have in prospect what
the pugilists term the old “one-two,"
aimed at love’s young dream and its
accompanying vagaries, by Senator
Wilkinson, of tho Forty-ninth dis
trict. in two exceedingly specific bills
introduced in the state senate Tues
day morning.
One is against bathing by the
sexes—that is, not against bathing,
but against the two sexes inter
mingling- in aquatic diversion tn
anything from a pond to an ocean.
The other is for the protection of
feminine juvenile character; that is
to say, character from thirteen to
sixteen years of age: to prevent girls
of that age from "keeping company."
except with the written consent of
parents or guardians.
Mr. Wilkinson, it appears, is simp
ly going to make ’em he good. He
intends not to give ’em a chance.
This puppy-love stuff does not ap
peal to Mr. Wilkinson. His unfav
orite poem probably is "Love's
Young Dream.”
Also, Mr. Wilkinson appears to
have been direfully scandalized at
some time and place by the bathing
apparel of the sexes, or perhaps
the shortage of same. His bathing
bill considers that matter fully; at
least as fully as the supposititidus
ly scanty bathing apparel can be
considered.
“From the armpits to the knees,”
declares Mr. Wilkinson modestly;
and prescribes further that the
sexes shall be separated by ropes,
and that they shall not enter or
leave the water within 100 yards of
each other, and that the men shall
have masculine life guards, and the
women feminine life guards.
Might Hang Annette
Penalties for violation includes
fines of from $10) /to $5,000, at
which rate it is assumed that for
each inch the bathing suit is ab
breviated above the dimpled knee
something like SSOO will be added to
the fine.
Annette Kellermann might be
hanged and consider herself getting
off light, at that; while imprison
ment from now on might well be
the penalty imposed for some local
bathers.
Some of those who oppose Mr. Wil
kinson’s proposed law assert that in
Japan, for instance, the sexes occupy
the same ocean and the same imme
diate section thereof in no bathing
suits whatever; and the Samoans
are said to be equally naive in the
matter of attire.
The character protection bill evi
dently regards the potential evils of
spooning in the young as less than
those of minglfrig in creeks, oceans,
pools, ponds, and so on. The penal
ties provide fines of from SSO to
SI,OOO and the same limit of impris
onment —up to six months—for “any
male soliciting or obtaining the pri
vate company or association of any
gir] in this state between the ages
of 13 and 16 without the written con
sent of the girl’s guardian or father
and mother."
The Bathing Bill
The text of the mixed bathing bill
follows:
"An act prohibiting sexes from
bathing together in this state at any
resort, either private or public; to
provide for suitable bathing suits for
both sexes; to designate the place for
entering the water; to separate the

rivers, creeks or ocean.
Section 2. Be it further enacted by
authority of the same, that bathing
suits used by both sexes shall cover
the entire body from the armpits to
the knees.
"Section 3. Be it further enacted
that public bathing resorts shall be
divided in such away as will give
tine place for males to undress and
dress for bathing, and one place for
females to undres and dress for bath
ing, and one place for the males to
enter the water and one place for the
females to enter; these points not to '
be nearer than 100 yards to each -
other.
Section 4. Be it further enacted
by authority of the same, that said
bathing waters shall be divided by
a line, or rope, supported by buoys
to designate the separation of any
such bathing waters, and that the
males shall bathe in waters appor
tioned for them, and the females
shall bathe in waters apportioned
for them, neither crossing.
“Section 5. Be it further enacted
by authority of the same, that it
shall be the duty of all managers
and owners of bathing resorts to
keep a sufficient number of life
savers present to prevent any one
from being drowned. Such a number
