Look at This! Here area FEW—Just a Few—of the Ruined French Towns. Help Rebuild One!
T HIS pietorial map does not by any means cover every city, town and village of France laid waste by the war. It gives the mose noted comm unities changed from smiling pros
. perous dwelling places to charred and ghastly debris. France is proud. Despite the enormous burden she bears she will not ask the world for help. BUT she will gladly re
ceive help to restore the homes of her stricken children. Let Atlanta and Greorgia rebuild one of these destroyed towns. It will stand forevera monument to our greatness of heart.

for some years been a student of the
oil-bearing shales of Nevada. His‘
imprisonment did not stay the activi
ty of his genius in seek¥ng an eco- |
‘nomical way to make the shale yleld a |
large profit in oil and by-products. |
A model prisoner, with a most{
pleasing personality, together with a|
‘belief on the part of many that he |
had been morg of a tool than a prin=
cipal in the frauds, gained him the
wllrling ear of the prison authorities
when he pleaded to be allowed to con
tinue his experiments on oil and
paraffin wax extraction from shale
rock as he had done tmany a 4 time and
oft as a free man.
Crape was even permitted to work
far into the night in his cell on his
scientific problem. He had failed a
dozgn times when a free man to in
vent a satisfactory process and fail
ure a dozen times attended his work
in prison.
Thirteenth Trial Freed Him.
Knocking to smithereens the old
story of unlucky thirteen, he won out
on his thirteenth trial behind the
bars.
So confident was Crane that he had
solved his problem and that it was a
far cheaper and more efficient plan
than the generally used Scotch pro
cess, that the warden gave him per
mission to write to Sccretary Baker,
y the War Department, about his in
ention,
In his Baker letter Crane claimed
his new process would cause the rock
formations of Nevada, Utah, Wyo
ming, Colorado and California to yield
an immense profit, particularly on oil
from which the Washington anthori
ties could distil just the kind of gaso~
line needed for their proposed big
aeroplane program.
Process Is Satisfactory.
Day’s latest official report on the
shales of the Coast States estimates,
among others, that those in Colorado
and Utah each contain 22,000,000,000
barrels of oil, and hose of this Btate,
Nevada and other Western States cor
regponding amounts.
The expert visited C'rane in prison
and thoroughly tested his process. He
made a favorable report to Lane.
Telling the Nevada State authori
tles of their favorable judgment on
Crane’s Invention, the Washington
people - suggested to (Goveror Boyvle
the pardom and restoration to citizen
ship of Crane, provided fhere was
nothing bad in the man’s record be-l

BALTIMORE. Jan. 26.—After a cold,
rough trip over the Alleghenies and the
Blue Ridge Mountains, during which
their progress was much impeded by
deep snows, the thirty army trucks,
manned by eighty soldiers in command
of Captain Bennett Bronson and Lieu
tenarft C. A. Riley, arrived here. It
was the end of a tortuous journey from
Detroit.
The squadron left Detroit three weeks
previously., Captain Bronson spoke of
the cordial reception given them at va
rious cities and expressed deep regret
over the accident in Ohlo, wgfln one
of the trucks was struck and wrecked
by a railroad train and one man was
killed amd another seriously wounded.

Plenty of Vessels by This Time
' ' '
Without Commission, Says
President of Railroad.
PORTLAND, OREG., Jan. 26.—“1f
we hadn’t had any Shipping Board
we would now have plenty of new
ships,” said a railroad president at
a recetit luncheon here of the Cham
ber of Commerce. Casually, but with
remarkable precision, he hit the nail
squarcly on the head.
The members of the original Ship
ping Board, with a single exception,
a mere cipher in the board, knew
nothitig of ships when appointed to
their positions. By this time, as the
Irishman would say. they probably
know less,
For nearly a year the Shipping
Board held back the construction of
merchant ships. Before Mr. Hurley
took charge the situation was deplor
able,
Millions of dollars of private Am
erican capital had been invested in
shipbuilding by men eager to build
ghips either for themselves or for the
Government. In many cases thess
shipyards, with their costly “ergan
ization,” meaning managers, assist
ant managers, superintendent and
assistant superintendents, foremen
and the like; shipways, shops of all
kinds, offices and dlerical forces,
waited month after month for per
missicn to take orders.
Permission Denied.
They wanted to build ships for
private Ametican or foreign account.
But to be able to do this they had to
receive the approval of the Shipping
Board, and this permission was de
nied the builders. And so their
plants were ‘eating their heads off,”
although the nsution never needed
shins so badly as now.
With a large force of highly skill
ed managers, superintendents, fore
men and workmen, weekly payrolls
become a nightmare. It i 8 nothing
much, in these dyas, for monthly
payrolls in shipyards 'to run from a
quarter of a million to half a million
of dollars. When, for some techni
cality, as was often the case, build
ers’ payments were held up, the
“financing” of the shipyards during
the enforced delay hecame a very
grave problem for the builders and
local bankers. The banks are, In
most cases, “carrying” these ship
yards, and in some cases the banks
are weary of their loads.
The United States Steamboat In
spection Bervice was the branch of
the Government service to which the
problem of building and equipping
ghips should naturally have been re
ferred—to men appointed because of
their experi skill in the building and
running of ships to men accustomed
to examining ships, to the men by
law still required to certify to the
peaworthiness of American-built
ships.
If to private capital had been left
the building of ships, as ships”were

Greek Statesman Denounces Con
stantine for Betraying Nation
at Behest of Kaiser,
By WILLIAM COLLYs
LONDON, Jan. 26.-~M., Venizelos re
ceived me in the room of hig hotel
overlooking the Green Park. |
Today he is aged; his hair is white;
there is a greater and heavier re
sponsibility on his ghoulders; he has
passed through a veritable furnace
of events, but is still the same kind
lv-cyed, courteous and humane per
sonality.
1 had never Sfifin him angry, It was
difficult to conceive hatred in M. Ven
izelcs,
He spoke ¥French as we sat alone
in his room after breakfast. We had |
discussed many things when the part
played by ex-King Constantine and
his master, the Kaiser, was broached.
Position of Greece.
His eyes assumed a steely hue, His
lips were taut. His indignation with
the Kaiser's super-spy, his revulsion
at his double denling, open lying and
intrigue were unmeasured. He said:
. “Take the position of Grecce on the
outbreak of the war. Was it not de
termined already, not only by her
treaty of alllance with Serbia, but by
her ties of gratitude to the three Kn
tente Powers who had never belied
their title of protecting powers of
Greece?
“l can say without reservation that
Greece felt that her contribution to
this world struggle would be small in
comparigon with the foreces of the
great protagonists; but she knew-—
yves, King Constantine knew-—that'she
could bring that small force to bear
on a vital spot at the right moment.
“1 furthered the policy that would
bring that about, My policy was frus
trated by the King’s dissent. He op
posed it, He intrigued against it. He
maintained that the duty of Greece
was to remain out of the war against
the evident wish of the people. 1 was
lead to believe that, come what might,
King Constantine would never allow
Bulgaria to atitack Serbia.”
Kaiser’s Representative.
Here M. Venizelos hesitated as if
gathering his thoughts, for he had
spoken with passion. He proceeded:
“But the King, who throughout was
but the Kaiser's representative, had
assured the German Emperor that |
built and put into use before there
wag a shipping board, for which the
machinery has been a part of the
Government machinery for three
quarters of a century, we would now
have hundreds of new ships, instead
of mere “promises” of ships.
What is needed is simplification in
the building of ships. Bince Com
missioner Hurley took charge the
mess has been rapidly clearing up
Ships will soon Le built rapidly, as
for a year they might have been
building.
Bulgaria need have no fear of Serbia.
He dismissed me. He enunciated the
theory thet when national matters
were at 18sue the sovereign was not
bound by the will of the people,
“He was a reflection, a mere em
tssary of the Kaiser. To him the
Constitution of the kingdom was
what the Belgian treaty was to his
master, the Kalser—a scrap of pa
per.
“He was not merely Germanophile;
he was and is purely CGlerman. By
his action he dragged (Greece to in
famy and disaster, and opened the
floodgatesof Macedonla to theßuiga
rian army.
“Clonstantine was the catspaw. To
gether he and the Kaiser designed to
paralyze any power that Greece had
to leave her useless as a fighting fac
tor if the conditions which have su
pervened should occur. Greece and
her people can never forget nor for
give this dual qu degigned infamy."
Can Help Allies.
The face of the Greek Premier as
sumed a pleased and hopeful aspect
as he told me how Greece can now
help her Aliles. He said:
“Greece will yet put in all her
weight on the Entente side. 1 have
already been able to reorganize the
whole Greek army. When 1 left
Grecce we had 60,000 men, or three
divisions, actually at the front. We
have thrown all our resources into
the seale, and we shall yet have
many more fighting men of that fine
caliber which did so much in the
last Balkan war.
“Grece i 8 now open-heurtedly will=
ing, and anxious, to take her part
with Italy and France, and to share
their privations,
“General SBarrall has paid tribute to
the Greek divisions, whien will stead
fly grow in numbers and efficiency.
Our army will yet make itself felt.
It is well officered. Inefficient com
manders have ben dismissed
“T'he (reek mercantile marine and
the fine harbors of Greece will be
thrown into the scale to aid the En
tente. It is to Bngland and her great
Allies that we look temporarily for
quick and efficlent help toward the
re-equipment of our resources, That
is the definite object of my present
mission.
“A month henee I hope to be in
Athens, and three months hence |
may journey to the United States on
a similar errand.”
Inter-Allied Control.
I could not forbear discussing Mr.
Yloyd George's proposal for unfty of
control and a supreme war council
M. Venizelos approached the subject
with caution. He said:
~ “It is not for me to appear even
to interfere in domestic questions,
but [ may venture to say with what
feelings of pleasure [ read President
Wilson’s approval of the central idea
sketched by Mr. Lloyd George. In
my own view, such a council will
make for greater efficiency. It is new

machinery to met new conditions.
“Yes; perhaps it 18 more. It may
be the seed of a conference, and an
intimacy among nations from which
may develop the League of Nations,
which is our cherished dream for
the maintenance of the world’'s peace
in the years to come. I sincerely
hope it is."

every morning. It came about in this
way:
Three years ago last lprlnf‘ his car
was waiting on a siding in the wools

Newhall investigated and found a nest
hidden under a tree; there was a fresh
laid egg in it; the hen ran aw as soon
as the motorman came in slfi. New
hall, who i fond of fresh eggs, immedi
ately sucked the egg, and in these days
of high prices it tasted good,
~ The next morning he put 4 few grains
of corn in his pocket when he started
out for his run. There was a fresh laid
egg in the nest for him, and in exchange
he left the corn,
Every morning sinee then all through
her layving season for the past three
years that hen has lald an egg for Mo~

corn on the nest.
’ Just now the hen is moulting, but
Newhall says she will begin
‘again soon and he'll have a fresh
iror breakfast again. !
