Wide
World
By Herbert Kaufman—*
IN 1918, Germany laid down
the sword for the cross.
France insists that it's a
double cross and acts accord- ,
ingly.
Paris interprets non-payment
of indemnities and repudiation
of reconstruction agreements
as defiance of the Versailles
treaty. So M. Poincare takes
such recourses as opportunity
offers and impotent allies pro
testingly permit.
The goose refuses to lay,
therefore choke ‘it until eggs
are forthcoming. A kill-or
cure remedy for a desperate
situation. And one more likely
to kill than cure.
It isn't killing Stinnes. He
probably has much more cash
in British and American banks
than his total properties orig
inally cost. Thyssen, too, and
the other industrialists.
- 1 The kaiser’s not settling any
part of the bill, nor the
Junkers, nor the great landed
proprietors, nor the farmers.
Chemical magnates continue
to ship to the four corners of
the earth. •'
Bertha Krupp's income may
be a fragment of the millions
that Essen once yielded, but
that fragment quite suffices
for accustomed luxuries and
comfort.
The nobles, the great mer
chants and manufacturers, the
exporters * and * the agrarians,
upon whose shoulders the re
sponsibility for “Der Tag” is
laid, are not found staggering
up to Calvary.
“Women and Children
First."
ERM ANY pays her debt
through the weak and the
poor, the young and the infirm,
the cripple and the crone, the
grandfather and the puling.
Widows and orphans—they’re
the marked victims and the vic
tims of toe mark.
If you'd still have eye for eye,
count the blind beggars yonder;
or limb for limb, stand on any
Hamburg or Frankfort corner
and watch the procession of
maimed and shell-torn mendi
cants.
Preserve your hate for autoc
racy, remember the “scraps of
paper” on Belgian frontiers,
condemn Von Tirpitz and despise
the Crown Prince forever and
a day, but, “suffer little children
to come unto you.”
Germany pays at the cradle
side and at the apron-string.
Hanger. Ttieket* A C®.,

ERMANY pays— hunger and
kX tickets and tuberculosis are
collecting reparations from the
tenements, from the jobless, the
foodless—from ragged school
boys and famished shop girls—
from shabby students and penni
less invalids —from palsy and
paralyzed and white - haired
o’bones.
If battle flags are still waving
In your heart, you’ll let em die—
the withered babe at shrunken
breast, the mother and her
shivering toddlers.
They’ve nothing more to sell.
Pawnshop and profiteer have
plundered bed, floor and closet.
They've eaten their rugs and
blankets and skirts and coats.
The improvident gluttons have

thority should intervene. Tax
Dives for the benefit of Laza

it’s too late to consider what
ought to be and what might

Death’s at the door. Death,
without shroud or coffin. A
betrayed and deserted nation is
perishing within a ring of steel
and callousness. Traitorous
greed and insatiate creditors

WINS BIG
RACE
Billy Watts Takes Second and
Jacqueline Julian Show
Money at Bowie.
By LEONARD W. COLLINS.
BOWIE RACE TRACK. Nov. 2S.—
The Gilda Gray Purse, the feature
of the sport here this afternoon,
which was won by the Triple Spring
Farm’s Opperman, had all the trim
mings of a Kentucky derby. When
Jockey -Marinelli brought the geld
ing back to the stand a huge horse
shoe of flowers w&i pMced on his
shoulders send a battery of camera
men fired away at hUh for five
minutes.
Trophy for Owner.
Mlm Gilda Gray in whose honor
the race was named, donated a
beautiful silver cup to be presented
to ths owner of lhe winner. Miss|
Gray witnessed .the race from the j
judges' stand and handed over •
the trophy to James Boden, owner
of the horse, with a neat speech. 1
Mr. Boden thanked the lady and
then took the cup out to the pad
dock where he showed it to his
friends.
Opperman was the favorite and
his victory, naturally, was a pop
ular one. When Starter Snyder
sent the field on its journey of a
mile and a sixteenth, Thimble
jumped away from the others and
cut out a rapid pace, followed by
Opperman, Billy Watts was in
third position a number of lengths
back. Going around the far turn,
Marinelli sent Opperman up to
Thimble and seeing that his
mount was full of running, took
him up again. "When they straight
ened for the run through the
stretch Marinelli again sent Op
perman after the flying leader and
catching her just irside the last
furlong pole won going away by
two lengths.
Thimble stopped all over after
being caught and finished fourth.
Billy' Watts took the place from
Jacqueline Julian by half a length
in a hard drive.
A steady rain and the fact -hat
Friday is an off day in racing held
the attendance here this afternoon
down to the smallest of the meeting.
Despite the fact that the track was
almost muddy, scratches were few
and a good afternoon’s sport was in
view.
The talent selected Escoba D’Or
to carry their money in the first
race, a five and one-half furlong
dash for two-year-olds, but the filly
failed to get inside the money. The
winner turned up in W. A. Shea’s
Bessie Gershel. which paid *43 in
the *2 machines. A. Bennett’s Flo
Brown, also an outsider, was sec
ond, and F. J. Boyle's Stevens third.
Whatever chance Escoba D’Or
had was spoiled at the start. She
was not‘ready when the gate went
up and left the post last. Flo
Brown took up the running right
after the break, closely followed by
Bessie Gershel and Dowry. There
was no change in the positions until
they reached the last sixteenth,
where Babin brought Bessie up and
beat Flo Brown half a length. The
latter was a length in front of
Stevens.
J. R. Sklnker’s . Poor Sport, an
other long shot, which paid *33.40,
led a field of twelve platers over
the finish line of the second race,
the conditions of which called for
three-year-olds and upward to race
six and one-half furlongs. Behind
him came Samuel Taylor’s Marie
Maxim and C. Hughes’ Hald-e in
the order named. The bunch in
good order, with Sling in front.
Marie Maxim passed him in the
first furlong and drew out to a
long lead. When they turned for
home Marie was booming along five
lengths to the good, but at the fur
long pole she started to hand out
distress signals. Poor Sport, which
was off in a tangle, came around
the bunch, and, charging down the
stretch with a wonderful burst of
speed and in a terrific drive, got his
nose in front of Marie Maxim’s
in the very last step. Haidee fin
ished third, a length and a half
back.

Underwood, Presidential Can
didate, Denounces Policy
In Georgia Speech.
By International Itown Serriee.
ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 2S._Before
a throng that filled the gallery of the
Georgia house of representatives,
Senator Oscar W. Underwood, Ala
bama’s candidate for the Democratic
Presidential nomination, today flayed
the Republican Administration for
what he termed its ’’do-nothing pol
icy.” He spoke before a joint ses
sion of the Georgia legislature.
Underwood took a firm stand on
European poMeles and expressed
himself as being strongly tn flavor Os
| participation in foreign affairs, but
1 stated that this could and should
be done without the enmleyment of
an army.
Blames Do-Nothing Policy.
j "We are now witnessing the great-
I est movement in all history of
t diplomacy developing into autocracy
over all Europe including England
and France, yrithout a word of pro
test from our own Government,” he
. said. “I do not criticize the Gov-
I ernment because it did not take the
policy of our party, but I do censure
it for doing nothing; for withdraw
ing its diplomatic connection; for
not sending at least one representa
-1 tive to the reparations conference.”
In speaking of employing force,
Underwood declared “it is not
necessary for this Government to
1 enter war to use its power in
> steadying crippled Europe. Not since
» Benjamin Franklin represented this
• country in Europe have ive main
: tailed a set policy he’ said.
■ "We should help in that manner
> now while it is suffering from its
financial and business instability.”
Pays Tribute to Georgia.
J The announced candidate for
Presidential honors thanked the
. Georgia legislators for their faith
. in him as a possible Chief Execu
, tive and paid—globing tribute to
t Georgia, a “sister State of his own.”
■ HUSBAND MUST GIVE BOND

1 The arrest of James S. Groves
r was ordered by Justice Hitz of the
k District Supreme Court yesterday.
He was required to furnish a bond

J M. Groves js settled. The wife told
j the court that her husband had

Misconduct is alleged against
Charles Brown in a suit filed yes
’ terday by Mrs. Credelia M. Brown
‘ for absolute divorce. They were
. married in May, 1919. She declared
that her husband is a “rough and
f violent man.”
1 Mina C. Schneider, wife of Albert
, M. Schneider, began proceedings
I against her husband yesterday to
recover *1,450, which she says is
j due her under a separation agree
