NEW BOLSHEVIST PLOT DISCOVERED
BY GERMAN PAPER
(By Associated Press) ESSEN. Germany, Nov. 7. Investigators lor the Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung, of Berlin, claim to have discovered plane for a communist uprising to depose the present German government and to establish a new one modelled on the Russian plan which would be associated with the present Russian soviet system. The investigators assert that the proposed revolution is to be assisted
and officered by Russian Bolshevists '. that the outbreak is to have its beginning In the Ruhr coal district. The responsible newspaper publishes a warning so energtic that it is accepted in well informed quarters as of more importance than the many rumors in circulation. Munich, Brunswick and other cities are claimed to be sub-centers for the movement. According to the paper Spartacists and communists will be armed throughout Germany. The communists are said to count on desertion by whole groups of the national defense army and on taking them into their ,"red army." General fighting headquarters, it is asserted, will be established In Brunswick, already a Spartaclst and communist center, and a council government is to be proclaimed. Began Long Ago. The Allgemeine Zeitung's investigators began their work several months ago, when the Spartaclst unrest in the Ruhr district threatened the coal supply and even menaced the government. Government troops were sent in at that time, some communists were executed, and martial law was proclaimed. Quiet was apparently restored. The investigators say, however, it is only a surface quiet, that the entire district is restive under martial law and that an outbreak is planned for the coming winter, when the workers will strike again in an
attempt to do their part toward crip-.
pling the government.
"Two months ago," saye the Allge
meine Zeitung, "there was held in a
large hall in Essen a communist meet
ing attended by men from all parts of
the Ruhr district, at which a Boltihevict agitator from Berlin announced the German communists were only awaiting the signal to break loose The signal, he said, was to be given simultaneously by Russians and Germnn Bolshevists. The newspaper says it is able to declare that at this communist meet ing it was decided to give Russian Bolshevists the leadership of the new communist undertaking in Germany. Worked Out Details. "The meeting worked out details for ihe rising," the Allgemeine Zeitung declares. "Among them were: Disarmament of the defense trops, establishment of a central office in Leipzig, and a general strike in all industrial centers of the country. "After the Industries have been shut down and troops are concentrated at certain industrial points," the newspaper adds, "a general night attack is to be made on the government troops in the cities. German and Russian communistic leaders will be on hand to lead the attack. If the plan succeeds a central fighting headquarters will be established in Brunswick, which will immediately invoke revolutionary tribunals and proclaim the cooperation of the German soviet government with the Russian soviet government.

Austrian Women Use Dresses to Carry Coal
(By Associated Press) VIENNA, Nov. 7. Well dressed men and women in Vienna were attracted recently by trucks filled with coal. They demanded to know for whom the fuel was intended. When it was learned it was for the use of a private citizen, they surrounded the carts and began unloading them, the women turning up thir skirts and fillin gthem with coal, while the men crammed their overcoat pockets and dispatch cases. One large truck was emptied in this manner in a few minutes, the driver offering no objections. The police looked on.
(Los Angeles Times)
Whatever else the present generation of Americans is, it is plainly not a generation of hero-worshipers. At any rate, it is decidedly not a worshiper of living heroes. Take the case of Alvin York, for instance. His performances in the late world war were so prodigious in reality as to make the fanciful narratives concerning Horatius and the heroes of Roman and Grecian mythology appear tame and commonplace. If Alvin York had performed his stupendous adventures in the times of the old
demigods, his name would have come down to us in the pages of Homer, Tasso and Milton. But, as far as we have been able to find out, nary a poem has been written about him. All that we know in the way of attention paid to this marvelous mountainer is that some Rotary club made him a present of a railroad ticket for himself and his bride by means of which they were enabled to make a wedding tour to Denver and back. The war itself the greatest war of all time is not one little year over with, and yet we hear now scarcely a mention of it anywhere in America. It seems to be completely forgotten, and almost as though it never happened. What is the explanation of it? We give it up. Maybe it is to be blamed
on the movies. There is an old saying that "Familiarity breeds contempt." And certainly the movies have made us familiar with everything there is in the world. We don't think you could surprise a present-day American if you were to stand his grandmother's ghost at the foot of his bed in the middle of the night.
U.S. BETRAYED HUN SECRET CODE, SAYS SEC ZIMMERMAN
(By Associated Press) EERLIN, Nov. 6. Alfred Zimmer. merman, secretary for foreign affairs during the war caused a mild sensation during to-day's session, of ihe National assembly committee, investigating the war when he admitted the German authorities had been suspici
ous that their code, which was known
by an American was betrayed by the United States Government. Count Bernstorff. asked regarding the code, at first said he could not swear that wireless messages received in America had been kept from the entente. Later he said under oath that he never knew of "such treason". He declared Germany had a difficult and dangerous cable route through neutral countries, but that messages had been concealed as commercial dispatches. The submarine warfare came into the investigation again today. Vice-Admiral Eduard Von Capelle one of the advocates of the submarine campaign, sald.the U-Boats had not been able to get at American Transports because such submarine covered
a limited circle around England, and the whole ocean could not be patrolled.
Various British and American inventions, like the "listening boat", Admir
al Von Capelle declared were other
things which prevented attacks on transports. Admiral Von Capelle did not mention mines or depth charges during his recital. He would not admit that the Admiralty underestimated the United 'States as a factor in the war, but declared that it was known from experiance with a volunteer army that the United States could not raise many troops in six months, and it was thought by the time they were trained, the war would be over. Count Bernstorff was asked at the opening of the session what he had done to offset the British propoganda, and explained the utter impsosibility of convincing the German propaganda authorities that they had to send Cinematograph films to counteract the effect of the English efforts. The American press, said Bernstorff.
was strongly Anti-German from the beginning of the World War, and the newspapers published in the German
language had only an effective appeal to the Americans. A laugh was raised when Deputy Wermuth. the former Mayor of Berlin, asked about the activities of the "English journalists." George Creel.
GERMAN COLONEL DECLARES HE IS MONARCHIST
(By Associated Press) BERLIN, Nov. 7 Colonel Reinhardt, commander of the Berlin brigade of the National Defense army, is quoted in the World Stage as declaring himself a monarchist. The army officer has denied the authenticity of the interview, but Erich Dombrowskl, of the Tageblatt, avers that he obtained the interview and that the colonel said.
"I make no bones of the fact that 1 am a monarchist. When one has served the king and kaiser for thirty years, one suddenly cannot say, from tomorrow I am a Republican. That is Eimply impossible. But do not be afraid. I consider it simply impossible to resurrect the monarchy for the time being. The Entente forbid3 it. But what can happen in ten years, how the conditions may have altered, no one can tell. Naturally, a royal or imperial government as we had before the war will not do. But a democratic monarchy is conceivable."

The Money Tree
Children soon discover that it is pennies that make possible the candy and balloons and whistles. Later, when they leaiTi that an apple seed grows into a tree which will bear more apples they invariably are thrilled with the thought that maybe if they plant a penny it will grow and bear more pennies. But after a few discouraging Burbankian experiments, they give up their childhood efforts to grow money and it is not until they begin to understand something of banking and finance that their thoughts again turn that way. Then they find that money, properly handled, really does grow and multiply. You can turn your childhood dream into practical reality by planting a "money tree" in one of Richmond's
banks. A dollar is all you need to start. With careful watching it will grow surprisingly. Interest mounts up rapidly especially when you supplement your seed dollar with others from time to time. In addition to the fruit from your "money tree" you have the comfortable satisfaction of knowing that it is absolutely safe. Burglars can't steal it and governmental watchfulness won't let sharpers steal it. There's a great satisfaction in watching a "money tree' grow. Every leaf of interest puts you that much nearer financial independence, and after you have seen the first leaf come out the thought of sacrificing others will always be a healthy check against careless extravagance. Better find a place to plant your tree. The protected, fertile places are all advertised in the Palladium.
