If you have oil stocks, of the
right kind, not pretty ones printed
to sell to fools, hold on.
British ships, including twenty
nine new Cunarders, intended to
hold the Atlantic supremacy, will
hum oil instead of coal.
And the enormous fleet of six
teen million tons that the United
States has built and is building,
with the humorous idea of selling
them to private individuals for a
great deal lesfr than cost, "will also
burn oil.
The world is going to need more
oil than ever, which means per
haps that Mexico, where so much
of the oil lies, will, with Great
Britain's assistance, be persuaded
to recognize property rights and
refrain from shooting even Americans.
Hihdenbure has built an army
of volunteers, to. put the . German
republic on its feet They think

a chance to start a govern
ment, instead of being: managed
by a mass meeting.
Various explanations are offer
ed as to WHY Hindenburg, strong
imperialist and servant of the
Kaiser, was persuaded to stay in
the army and work for the So
cialist government when it came
to power.
They say "Hindenburg's great
est victory was conquering him
self and working for the Socialist
government"
That may not be so. Hinden
burg, powerful man, nearlng sev
enty, may have tired of "All High
est" incompetence, tired of taking
orders from and shouldering the
mistakes of the Crown Prince.
It may have been something of a
relief to go in with Ebert, the
harness maker, and other men
that have their feet on the ground
and do not pretend .that God has
chosen them to know more, own
more, do more, and kill' more than
other men.
Whatever Hlndenburg and his
army may do In Germany,' Bol
shevism Is spreading amazingly
elsewhere. It appears to control
Bavaria, Hungary, Russia, Fin
land, and to be growing in many
countries.
The. great force in Bolshevism's
identical with the power thai
spread Mohammedanism over aj-j
most all of Europe Jnthe -eafly
centuries. y-s - '
It Is a ferocious, vindictive,
ceaseless movement of propa
ganda, not content to believe for
itself, but determined to make
others believe.
And what Bolshevism teaches
and promises is not so. different
from the teaching and promises of
Mohammed. He said: ."I give you
the perfect religious doctrine on
earth, and I give you after you die
a heaven full of eternally beauti
ful young ladles, fountains Bpout
ing wine that does not Intoxicate
and your wives will be left be
hind." Bolshevism says to its followers,
no matter how little he knows, or
how little he has done: "I give you
perfect political doctrine, declar
ing you as wise and worthy as any
man, and I .offer here on earth
the possession of everything thar
others have built and (hat you
have envied'
All very nice while it lasts.
Mohammed's soldiers died with
great courage, for every man when
he died thought he moved imme
diately to that promised heaven
where the ladies never grow old.
The Bolshevists appear to fight
with a courage something like it
The suggestion comes from
Paris that Fiume will go to the
Jugo Slavs and not to Italy, unless
Italy can persuade the native that
they want to be Italian.
There is trouble ahead in that
suggestion. Study the Mediter
ranean map; look at the shores
of the Adriatic on the Italian
side and on the eastern side.
Italy without harbors along her
coast lies absolutely open to at
tack from innumerable harbors
across the narrow sea. Those
harbors, it is intended to give to a
traditionally hostile people, a peo
ple at present playing with the
Bolshevist theories. If this goes
through. Italy, after all her sacri
fices, will have lost the war, and
have before her the necessity of
another war. It would mean be
trayal of Italy by ungrateful
allies.
Let the world remember that
war seems to be the only thing
that educates the world and makes
definite, permanent improvement
When the United States went to
Cuba it did more than conquer
Spain, a simple job. It con
quered yellow fever.
The United States took a little
strip at Panama, built a canal for
the whole world. The army elimi
nated malaria and yellow fever
there, worse enemies than Bol
shevism and autocracy.
The army has begun a gigantic
organized fight against the house
fly, which carries disease. Mil
lions have talked about the
house fly each summer, and
nothing has happened. But
with the army at work something
will happen. The great army

PARIS, April S. The "big

noon, have decided to eliminate
the idea of capital punishment
for the former Kaiser, but will
provi some means for bring

The positions of the'three lead

follows: '

allies have abandoned the four
teen points and the principles
contained in the armistice in
favor of purely selfish interests.

will be made in twenty hours.

"Washington's growth as a banking
center has more than kept 'pace with
her growth in population 'and her im
portance as the dominating city of the
world in political matters.
From any period of the past that
may be selected for comparison, this

Proportioned to population, It is be-

Washington banks lead all cities of

fcome extent by the presence here, in
increasing nu.nbers every year, of
wealthy people who have found this

NEW YORK, April 0. Sidney Drew,
well-known actor, died this morning
at his home here after a short illness.
Physicians diagnosed his ailment as
uremic poisoning.
Drew became ill in Detroit on Fri
day last while playing with his wife
in "Keep Her Smiling." the show
which appeared in Washington this
winter.
Drew's first professional experience
was in Philadelphia with Leonard
Grover In "Our Boarding House." He
made an instantaneous hit as a light
comedian. His work attracted the
attention of Charles Frohman, who
engaged him to play leading comedy
ro.les with Rose Eytinge, Ada Dyas,
and other stars of that period. Later
he organized his own company and
presented "The Rivals." "The Road
. to Ruin." and other plays.
Went Into Vaudeville
In 1896 Mr. Drew turned his atten
tion to vaudeville, and was a pioneer
In presenting legitimate drama on
the variety stage. His first playlet
was "When Two Hearts Are Won."
He continued in vaudeville several
years, only leaving for a brief en
gagement as "Tony Lumpkin" in an
all-star ca3t of "She Stoops to Con
quer," including Kyrle Bellow and
Eleanor Robson. His last venture on
the speaking stage was in "Billy," in
which he appeared two years ago.
Drew entered the movies with the
Vitagraph Company. Here he met
Miss Lucille McVey. an actress of un
usual ability. Their marriage soon
followed. His first wife was a daugh
ter of McKee Rankin, a prominent
actor in his day.
In rolite Comedlra.
"While with the Vitagraph organiza
tion the Drews co starred in polite
comedies of domestic life. At the
termination of their contract they
joined Metro. Mrs. Drew wrote most
of their scenarios and directed them.
A few months ago both returned to
the speaking stage in "Keep Her
Smiling."
Sydney Drew was a. brother of
John Drew and father of F. Rankin
Drew, the aviator, who was killed
In France on May 25 of last year,
while fighting with . the Lafayette
escadrille. The aviator wae the son
of Drew's first wife.
Recently when his moving picture
contract expired Drew did not renew
it. He said he did not contemplate
returning to the movies.

BERKELEY. W. Vs., April 9.
Sheriff Hawerdale was asked today
to send deputies to Martinsburg to
protect Hugh Perkins, colored,
charged with assaulting Mrs. Bessie
Zimmerman, twenty-four, near here.
When the negro was brought here
last night at midnight a mob of Han
cock citizens, in twenty automobiles,
went to the jail and sought to break
In. "While they were battering at
the rear door and calling for a lynch
ing, the sheriff removed the negro
in an automobile to the Martinsburg
Ja.il, twenty-two miles away.
State's Attorney H. W. Daye at 1
o'clock this morning went to the jail
and talked with the mob. He pleaded
with them to let the courts handle
the case. He finally had the Jailer
conduct the mob through the Jail to
prove to them that the negro was not
there.
The negro entered the Zimmerman
home yesterday afternoon at 4
o'clock. Only Mrs. Zimmerman and
her four-year-old daughter were in
the house. He asked for a glass of
water.
Just as the woman gave him the
water, the negro seized her, she says
She fainted. The little girl ran for
her father, some distance from the
home.
When Mrs. Zimmerman regained
consciousness, the negro brandisiicd
a razor and threatened her if she
raised an outcry. Ho fled before the
husband reached the house.
The warning was pent out over the
telegraph wires.
The negro caught a freight train,
but was captured by a pirty of Bal
timore, and Ohio Railroad employes
twenty miles rrom the scene of the
incident. They reported it was neces
sary to use a coupling pin on the man
to beat him into subjection. Strands
of woman's hair were clinging to
buttons on his coat.
Mrs. Zimmerman is in a serious ct n
dition today.

WARSAW, April 9. A constant
stream of fugitives is pouring into
Warsaw, each nf them with fresh
i tables of Bolshevik horrors. The
people abroad have no conception of
the deep feeling of dread which the
name "Bolshevism" inspires in Po
land. Already the Russian Reds are

today of Thomas T. Lockett. who has
Just returned from France. Lockett

Brandon was a member of that
unit, and !s now in France. Lockett
was associated with him from April
of last year until he sailed recently

mained in France, he said, because
of an important cloriclal position he
holds in the army over there.
The Annapolis soldier said that
stories that Brandon had admitted in
a dream that he had something to do
with the slaying of his wife were
without foundation.
The negro, John Snowden, was re
cently hanged here for the murder of
Mrs. Brandon. Friends of Snowden
sought to place tho blame for the

learned today.
In equipment they are far superior to
the Linine fighters.
According to reliable information,
the allied troops In northern Russia
number 34,000 men now. The Bol
shevlkl have about 17.500. American,
British. French and loyal Russian
troops compose the allied force.
It is divided Into two bodies, ovtr
19.000 being in the Archangel and
upwards of 14,000 in Murmansk.
In addition to being overwhelming
ly outnumbered the Bolshevik! in this
region are handicapped by an almost
total lack of modern fighting arms.
They have little artillery and even
this is practically useless as the gunc
are largely those left over from the
old Czarlst rmy. They are almost
entirely without range-finding de
vices, essential to long-distance artil
lery fire. They are also almost total
