BOLSHEVIK AIDED GERMAN PLOTS AGAINST U. S.
Russians Required by Huns to Give News of U. S. Supplies Received. WASHINGTON, Sept. 17. Secret activities against the United States and the allies of the German paid and controlled Russian Bolshevik! government are the subject of today's chapter of confidential documents from Russia given to the public by the American government. ' One of the documents, a terse note
from the German general staff to the
Council of People's Commissarls, declares that as long ago as November,
1917, when the Russian regime still
was regarded as an ally of the nations at war with Germany, the Germans were brusquely requiring Lenlne and
Trotzky to furnish Information regarding the amount and places of storage
of supplies received from America, England and Prance. Others tell of the launching In Jan
uary and February this year of a Bolshevlkl peace and Socialistic propaganda against the United States. England and France, at the direction of the German intelligence service. False Neutral Passports. This was at the very time that Scheidemann, the powerful German Socialist and world Socialism apostle, was in communication with his Russian brothers "regarding the destruction of traces of the party's business relations with the Imperial government." The intelligence service required the Dolshevlki to send to the allied countries through neutral Europe "comrades" -under assumed names, and with false neutral passports, to preach their doctrine of disorganization and to carry on campaigns of "counter revolution," sabotage, looting, etc." Plans for the Germans for sending three submarines, disassembled, by rail overland to Vladivostok for service on the Pacific are disclosed In a communication of the German High Seas Fleet General Staff to the commissarls. The other of the naval communications reveals a scheme conceived In January of employing Russian ships on the Pacific under the Russian flag to cary agitators and "agents-destructors" to the United States, Japan and the British colonies in Eastern Asia. Robbery of Ambassador. Personal notes from the German Intelligence Service to the commissarls describe the assault upon and robbery of the Italian Ambassador in the streets of Petrograd In February last. In a vain effort to get possession of important papers believed to have been In the Ambassador's possession. Other notes tell In detail of the watch kept upon the American and other allied embassies. Like the remainder of the documents of the series, those made public today are accompanied by notes explaining which are original and which are photographic copies, and by explanatory comments by Edgar Sisson, who obtained the correspondence in Russia for the Committee on Public Information.

This is the marching song of the 151st, and was composed by Halsey K. Moore, writer of "They're Wearing Them Higher in Hawaii," "Liberty Bell" and other popular songs: "We're from Indiana and we're on our way. And we're true and loyal to the U. S. A. Land of Normandy never fear; we'll set you free, For we're coming over the ocean Just to prove our friendship and devotion. Though they made your land the battlefield for all. Inhumanity and shame are bound to fall. As we march with you, every heart will beat so true. And we will never, never come back until we win. Then up and at them Over the Top we go. See that Hun On the run; Drive him back to the land he came from; Up and at them Over the top we go. We'll fly our banner for Indiana and Victory. Then Oh, Indiana! You'll be proud of us While we're over there, And you can bet every mother's son of us Will be proud to do our share for Liberty's rause. And when we march into Berlin this is what we'll do; We will change the River Rhine to River Wabash So they will never forget you INDIANA.

EXPRESSES VIEWS
(By Associated Press.) AMSTERDAM, Sept. 17 Pieter J. Troelstra. the Dutch Socialist leader, who recently was refused admission to England on the ground that he had German sympathies, announces that he conferred Friday with Friederick Ebert, chairman of the Social Democratic party in the German reichstag, and that Ebert replied as follows to various questions: "If the deliberations of the Prussian upper house, as I assume, will fail to lead to equal suffrage, and if the government should not dissolve the diet, we should adopt an attitude of sharpest opposition to the government. "Regarding the Brest-Litovsk treaty, I refer you to Herr Scheidemann's declarations in his report of the conference with you at The Hague. There certainly is no question of unconditional adherence to our Stockholm memorandum. "I have stated that we are ready at an international conference to place ourselves on the basis of the neutral memorandum f the Dutch Scandinavian committee of Stockholm. That is
to say we make this memorandum our
own except as regards the questions of Belgium and Alsace Lorraine. Regarding Belgium we differ only from the neutral memorandum on the question of compensation. This, however, is a question on which an attempt must be made to reach a compromise by verbal discussion. We must maintain our standpoint regarding Alsace-Lorraine.

How to Save Coal
(By Associated Press.) PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 17. Various ways to save coal and still keep warm are pointed out by the General Committee of the Anthracite Coal Operators in a series of suggestions given out here on conservation of- the fuel during the coming winter months. Briefly they are: Start furnace and kitchen-range fires as late as possible. Forget the first few cool Fall days. Raise window curtains during the day to admit sunlight, for that is free heat. Dispense with awnings as they shut out the sun. Weatherstrip all doors and windows and put asbestos around all furnaces, boilers and celler pipes used for heating purposes. , Reduce the home temperature to 67 degrees. Do not wait until the mercury shows 74 degrees before closing drafts. By this time that extra amount of coal will have been consumed and wasted, according to all economic rules. Bedrooms, where windows are opened for the night or otherwise, should be shut off from heat. Use blankets and feel better in the morning. Wear heavier clothing. This materially saves body heat. Thoroughly clean soot from pipes and boilers and do not mind doing a little work in the cellar seeing that window panes are tight and weatherstripped like the other parts of the house. Burn oil, wood, coke and bituminous when possible. Use gas for cooking and heating. Gas lighting at night aids in heating the home, stores and buildings where used. Use heavy draperies on doors and windows for interior home decoration. This aids in husbanding interior heat supply.

AT DEATH'S DOOR "I was talking with my neighbor, Mr. Webb, the other day, regarding . the great trouble his stomach had given him. He said he suffered 7 or 8 years, and had been almost at death's door a number of times from acute indigestion and bloating of gas which seemed to shut off his heart action. He said he wouldn't have lived much longer if he hadn't taken Mayr's Wonderful Remedy when he did, which made a well man of him." It is a simple, harmless preparation that removes the catarrhal mucus from the Intestinal tract and allays the Inflammation which causes practically all stomach, liver and intestinal ailments, including appendicitis.

There Is a reason for every part of the navy uniform, according to Navy Recruiter Kienzle. The following 'is the explanation the navy recruiter gives for the design of the sailor's uniform: The three white stripes on the col-
; lar commemorate the three great English sea battles:
Tfce defeat in 1588 of the Spanish Armada by the English fleet. The battle of Trafalgar, which occurred off Cape Trafalgar in October, 1805, between the English and Spanish fleets. The battle of the Nile, which occurred off Aboukir Bay in 1798 between the English and the French fleets. The collar itself was formerly made of leather, and was ii6ed to protect the shirt or blouse of the wearer from oily wig or perique worn by sailor men. The black tie is worn by the British sailors of Lord Nelson's fleet in memory of the death of Lord Nelson in 1805. Lord Nelson was the naval hero of England. The tradition of the black neckerchief has been handed aov.n to us. In addition it serves u practical purpose, being a yard square of silk, making it practical for an emergency bandage or an arm sling. The white dickey, worn at one time, but which has been replaced by allowing the white undershirt to show at the neck, is associated with the death of Admiral Faragut. After his death the sailors were requested to divide among them the sail in which his body was lowered to the water, and to wear the pieces across their chests. The thirteen buttons across the top of the trousers represent the thirteen original states. The wide legs of the trousers are designed to allow freedom of movement

photo was taken quite a few years before Pershing thought of donning the U. S. uniform. The picture was taken when John was six years of age and probably even his fond mother hadn't thought then that her boy some day would lead the U. S. boys Into the biggest battle in history. The picture is said to be the only one of its kind and was furnished by Pershing's brother, James.
Seventeen Months of War Costs U. S. Billion Dollars a Month
(By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON. Sept. 17 Seven
teen months of war have cost the United States government $17,339,681,342 a billion dollars a month. This rate has increased so rapidly, however, that August expenses ran up to $1,805,513,222, or nearly $200.000,000 more than the highest previous record set in July."
These figures from the Treasury show that less than 1 years of modern warfare have cost the United States more than four times the combined Union and Confederate outlays for three years of the Civil war, cal
culated at $3,660,000,000 for the
Union and $1,500,000,000 for the Confederates. The report also shows double the rate of increase in expenditures estimated by the government In June then set at $100,000,000 more each month. If this rate continues, expenses for the year ending next June 30 will be much more than the $24,000,000,000 estimated, and the country may be called on to absorb more than the $16,000,000,000 of liberty bonds now tentatively planned. The Treasury report also shows further that the $17,339,000,000 cost of the war to date, $10,989,077,000 has been spent for ordinary war purposes, and $6,245,764,000 has gone as financial aid to the allies. This will be repaid eventually, and consequently may be deducted in calculating the net war expenses to the United States government. Only $5,031,478,000 has been gathered by the government from taxes, customs and other minor sources of revenue since the war started, and $12,300,000,000 from liberty loans and sale
of certificates of indebtedness, which are to be converted into liberty bonds. This indicates that only 29 per cent of war expenses to ' date have been drawn directly from the pockets of the people, and that 71 per cent has come from popular borrowings which will necessitate heavy tax levies long after the war. Liberty Loans Helped. The third liberty loan has now brought in $4,165,635,000 which leaves only $11,000,000 of the $4,176,000,000
original subscriptions yet to be paid in. The last installment was due three weeks ago. Income and excess profits payments trickling in during August raised the . total from this source within the last year to $2,842,298.000 and officials expect this to rise gradually to $3,000,000,000 as delinquent payments are rounded up by internal revenue agents. Millions of thrifty citizens Investing in war savings stamps have piled up $647,554,000. In August receipts from the stamps were $129,044,000. Even with this total, comparison shows that war savers did not keep up their pace set in July, when the government collected $211,417,000 as a result of the national campaign on thrift day. Tremendous war expenses these days $60,000,000 a day are being met by sale of certificates of indebtedness, virtually short time loans from banks, to be refunded in the fourth liberty loan. Even with a half billion of these securities going out every two weeks, and a corresponding inflow of money, the government's working balance has dropped from about $1,500,000,000 where it stood for the last few months, to about $1,000,000,000. The figure represents funds on hand, most of which is distributed as deposits among hundreds of banks, but available at all times for checking out.
