government recognizes all financial
obligations ‘and the fpreign policy of
Germany will remain unaltered, de
clared Dr. von Kapp in an intefview.
He described the pregent situation
as being purely internal,
Throughout the interview, Doctor
Kapp spoke German, although he
#peaks perfect Knglish, having been
in the United States
Outlining the policy of the new
government, he said
“The terms of the peace_ treaty
will be carried out in every respect
whicnh is compatible with our na
tional honor and fidelity and so far
a 8 it doeg not mean the nation's
suicide. .
“Strikes and sabotage will be
ruthlessly suppressed
“The new goverhment guarantees
the freedom of religions and the re
establishment of religious educa
tional instijutions.”
Von Kapp declared he wished to
emphasize this is not a movemen!
for a monarchy. He deseribed his
government as a ‘“civil dictatorship.”
“A monarchy Is far distant from
our thoughts,” .he said. “The Ebert
government was powerless, It was
filled with corruption, and those who
have taken over the sovernment have
fulfilled a patriotie duty to the father
land.”
Germany Is ready and anxious, he
asserted, to establish cordial rela
tions with the western powers and
“particulariy the United States.’”
Coneerning soviet Russia, Doctor
Kapp declined to talk.
“You must understand, gentiemen,”
he said to the correspondents, “that
at this time I can not discuss ques
tions of a diplomatic nature.”
CENSORSHIP PROTESTED.
The interview was given at the
chancellor's palace.
About a score of American and
British representatives were present
at the invitations of Ignatius T.
Lincoln, the former gpy, who has
been established as chiet censor.
The correspondents volced an in
dignant protest against the rigid cen
sorship on outgoing Adispatches which
the new government nas imposed.
This protest was met with polite
regrets and the information that for
the present it was impossible to per
mit uncensored communications.
Ebert Refuses

To Negotiate
By FRANK MASON,
Staff Correspondent of the 1. N. S.
BERLIN, March ™ (midnight).—
Frederich Ebert, pregident of the old
(terman government, has refused to
énter negotiations with the new re
gime headed by Imperial Chancellor
Wolfgang von Kapp.
Germany has two governments. The
new regime holds Berlin. The oia
government was temporarily estab
lished at Dresden, Saxony, but is re
ported to have moved to Stuttgrrt,
in Wuerttemberg.
Both sides are preparing for a bit
ter struggle for national supremacy.
Bavaria, Baden and Wuerttemberg
are said to be supporting Ebert and
Bauer-—the chiefs of the old govern
ment,
One foreign nation, presumably
¥ngland, ia understood to have re
ceived notification of the revolt in
advance, This foreign nation i 8 said
to have given assurance it would not
intuorvene,
STRIKE IS SPREADING, !
All political facticis and the work
men are becoming involved. The
general ?rike is spreading swiftly.
Leaders of the Conservatives and
the Nationalists )supporters of the
Von Hindenburg presidential candi
dature) have promised to support the
Von Kapp regime if it appoints “ex
perts” to the ministry.
General Ludendorff, a military idol,
calted upon General Baron von Luett
witz, commander-in-chief of the new
government's army, bLut it is not
known if he offer ~ his support to
the new regime.
The imperial chancellor has prom
ised to issue election writs within
60 days to elect a “national assembly.”
OLD REICHSTAG CALLED.
Despite the decre of the imperial
chancellor dissolving all Prussian as
‘semblies, Kostantin Fehrenbach has
fssued a call for a meeting of the
old Reichstag in Stuttgart on Wed
nesday.
Herr Ebert sent messages to the
old government officials in Berlin
urging them to accept no orders from
the new regime and to pay out no
money, but the messages were inter
cepted,
Throughout all these happenings
attending the overturn of the old
governmeng the RBerlin populace
maintained a strange calm. Sunday
detachments of trgops in motor cars
passed through the streets distribut
ing manifestos from the imperial
chancellor. 'Others were dropped
from airplanes,
NUMERQUS STATEMENTS.
Revolutionary mar®nes, headed by
brass bands, paraded and the people
waved flags and handkerchiefs, ap
parently careless of what govern
ment the troops supported.
Statements and denials were is
sued by the heads of the new gov
ernment to counteract the wild ru
mors. A% no newspapers were being
printed, the government statements
were distfibuted like hand bills,
Chancellor wvon Kapp branded
reports that the revolution was a
monarchist plot as “lies” One offi
cial statement was headed, “Wa Shall
Not Destroy, but Build Up.”
The chancellor depied that the
revolutionary government i{s prepar
ing for a new war. He said there
would be no conscription. Promises
were made to labor lsaders that the
men would enjoy representative gov
ernment if they returned to work at
once.

Hindenburg Will Be
New German Leader
-~ In Gerard’s Opinion
| By WINIFRED VAN DUZER,
| Staff Correspondent Universal Service
} NEW YORK, March 16.—Field
| Marshal von Hindenburg will be the
| next president of Germany.
i This is the prediction of James W.
| Gerard, former United States am
bassador to Germany, who was pre
called at the time diplomatic na
tions were severed between that
cougiey and this.
] s menting upon the latest de
| velopments in the overthrow of the
Ebert government, Mr. Gerard said:
‘ “Von Hindenburg, it is quite
| likely, will be elected to fiil an of
| fice that will be something between
i a monarch and a president,
“The Germans are used to a mili
tary form of government. Their ed
‘m'ation and discipline for many
‘)'(-urs has so accustomed them to
| that kind of rule that it is hard for
\them to know how to behave as
llib#rlls.
“Therefore [ predict that whoever
!.‘.« next elected—antl I think Von Hin
denburg will be chosen—will be a
sort of prince-president.”
’HOHENZOLLERNS QuUT.
Mr. Gerard stated that the igno
'mininus flight of the kaiser in the
moment of Germany’'s greatest trial
'nut the Hohenzollenrs out of the
running as rulers for all time to
come.,
I “The former kaiser,” he sald, “for
| feited the Joyalty and respect of his
lone-time officers when he ran away.
| “But if by any chance the mon
archists should regain complete and
unrestricted control of the govern
ment there is a possibility that they
might call upon Prince Adelbert to
Slako the throne. He is ‘the third son
jof the kaiser and always has been
‘!hn one most popular in Germany.
!He is the only one of the former
j princes I regard as likely to be con
i sidered. Kven® his rulership would
be short of duration I believe be
cause of the probability of other
revolutions following this one.

PARIS, March 16-—The morning
newspapers severely condemn Pres-|

and ex-Premier Clemenceau for fail
ing, through the treaty of Versailles,
to disarm Germany more completely.
The Matin said: !
“1f President Wilson knew that
France was militaristic why could
he not have foreseen the German
coup ?" 3
The Matin attacked the policies
of the “big three, ‘pointing out that
lone of the first results of their peace

the (ierman monarchists and the
German general staff.
“Where is the peace of Wilson and

-srems to be a conflict between the
Social Democrats who form the
great majority of the (GGerman people
and who were the backbone of the
last revolution and the militaristic
Pan-German party, now in control
in Berlin,
“It remains to be s=een how the
country outside of Berlin finally will
decide to act toward the new gov
ernment,
1+ “The outcome of the revolution
will be influenced by the final atti
tude of the Essen-Ruhr district in
Westphalia; a distriet of steel man
ufacture, shipbuilding and such im-,
portant industries; also by the man
ufacturhhg districts of Saxony, such
as Chemnitz and Leipzig.
“The manner in which the return
of militaristic power finally is re
garded by commercial and maritimq
cities will be an important factor as
well. Public gentiment in Hamburg
and Bremen will do much to influ
ence the outcome of this revolution
and of others which may follow.”.
Mr, Gerard explained that a new
and independent army may be
raised from among retainers of the
junkers to further operations es the
militaristse.,
ESTATE OWNERS TO AID.
“It depends,” he said, ‘‘upon
whether the militarists have the
sympathy of owners of estates in
the country distriets. [ predict that
those owners will organize their
peasantry into a sort of guard to aid
the military revolution.
“In any event I believe they will
send fobd and other supplies to the
industrial sections. They ‘will do so
in an attempt to bribe industrial
workers into consenting to the
change of government.
“"However, as [ have gaid, the ma

government, at heart thy are in

majority tamely will submit to the

Liquor smuggling along the Flor

where it has been found necessary
to seek aid from the United States
authorities in Atlanta,
Working with Florida officials
more than a month, D. J. Gantt, pro
hibition enforcement officer returned
to Atlanta with stories of methods
of transporting from Cuba to ¥lorida
coast cities.
Mr, Gantt said aeroplanes have
been used but as a general rule,
small fishing smacks and speedy
motor boats are used., Conditions
are ideal along the Florida coast for
secret operations, he said. In the
days of the Civil War it was pointed
out the federal fleet was unable to
keep Southerners from bringing in
food supplies and ammunition
through their blockade because there
are so many small inlets and
waterways.
Authorities try to apprehend viola
tors at the source where the liquor
is dumped upon the shore, otherwise
it is practically impossible to trace
automobiles and wagons that bring
it into the larger ies. Palm Beach
and Miami are the principal receiv
ing cities, it was said.
Since beginning operations in
Florida, Mr. Gantt has made three
or four ralds with a total seizure of
moroe than 500 cases of liquor.

A Shampoo That
Makes Brilliant Hair
Ordinary soaps and cheap sham
poos leave the hair sticky and covered
with a thick, filmy substance that
endangers its life and makes it harsh,
liteless and ugly. For the hair only
the most perfect blend of Cocoanut
and Palm oils as comtfined in Shuco
Shampoo should be used. ¢
Shuco Shampoo is so prepared that
it will completely rinze gut, leaving
no unpleasantness. It brings out the
lustre and ‘brilliance and makes the
bair glossy like silk. Two or three
teaspoonfuls applied to the wetted
hair and rubbed griskly at once
changes into a bushel of sparkling,
bubbling, snowy-white lather, which
completely rinses out, leaving the
hair glossy, silky, fluffy and wavy.
Your mirror will tell you why Shuco
Shampoo makes hair with a thousand
lights. At all good druggists.—Adv.
