| | | BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE THRACEAWARD ‘STIRS ANGER TN BULGARIA Premier Declares that It is Grav- est Injustice Ever Done Peo- ple of His Nation GIVEN GREECE BY ALLIES Sofia, June 22--The award of ‘Thrace to Greece by the Supreme Council was denounced by Alexander ‘Stambuliwsky, premier of Bulgaria. in a talk with The Associated Press correspondent today as the “gravest injustice ever done to Bulgaria.” “I cannot believe the report to that effect,” he continued. “It will drive our people to despair. But, on be- half of the government, 1 want to say that in spite of such a misfor-| tune, {f come it must, we will loyally keep to our obligations to the Allies to fullfill the terms of peace.’ (Under the peace treaty, Bulgaria ceded to the Allies western Thrace which it had: occupied before the war. The peace conference later awarded it to Greece). Premier Stambuliwsky is the man who served_a three-year prison term for telling King Ferdinand that if he went to war on the side of Ger- many he would either lose his throne or his head. He is leader of the pow- erful Agrarian or ‘Peasant party. Because of ‘his humble birth and his peasant parentage, the prime minister is regarded as the Lincoin of Bulgaria. Like the great Ilinoisan he is essentially a man of the people and has much homely wisdom and practical sense. He received the cor- respondent in a simple, unpretentious office, the oldest feature in which was a desk as high as a man’s shoulder, at which the minister did all his writing while standing. “oYu, must, excuse meé for receiv- ing you in this fashion,” said he laughlingly to the reporter, “but you see while I was serving my prison term for daring to oppose the for- mer king, the only light in my cell came through a narrow opening near the ceiling and I acquired the habit of writing while standing. In this way I wrote twenty volumes within three years. I still continue the prac- ‘tice of doing all my work, while on my feet. ‘ “When I signed the peace treaty on behalf of Bulgaria,” he said, “it was in the firm convention that the ‘Allies would make Thrace a separate state under the control of one ‘or more of the great powers and would give us an outlet on the Aegean Sea. If now Thrace is given to the Greeks, we must believe that the peace con- ference desires to deprive us of that outlet and cripple us economically, for. we could not accept a seaport on Greek territory.” ’ “Mr... Stambuliwsky declared that every. foreign mission that had in- aestigated the Thracian question urg- ed that autonomy be given the people there, or, if no autonomy, that they be allowed to express: their prefer- ence for union either with Bulgaria or Greece. “As between a choice ot having Bulgaria or Greece as a mas- ter,” sgid the prime minister, “there is absolutely no question that the Thracian people would choose Bul- garia. They feel that the granting of self-government to. them would lead to the creation of many autono- mous states in the Balkans and that this in turn would tend to the forma- tion of a Federation of Balkan coun- tries which has been the hope of statesmen for so many years. “I cannot see,” continued the miu- ister, ‘how the Allies could be so purblind as to award this narrow strip of, territory to Greece and de- prive us of all access to the sea. By closing the door to us on the Aegan they are forcinb us north to the Danube, which can mean only one thing—a resumption of our trade ani economic relations with Germany. They ‘have already punished. us for our asociation with the central pow- ers., iNow. they are forcing us to follow. the same. path. There is no logic in such a decision. “Bulgaria intended to construct railways to Dediagath on the south,” (M. Stambuliwsky went on, “but now if Thrace is given to Greece we shall have to divert them to the north on the Danube, because our Black Seh ports are of little value, especially in winter. Would the peace confer. ence put us under the economic and commercial dependence and domina- tion of Germany again? We shall be forced to ‘this extremity if we are deprived ‘of all access to the Aegean and are compelled to io to the Dan- ube.

WHICH BAFFLES By JAMES HENLE, i. E. A. Stafi Gorrespondent. New York, June 22—“There is no great mystery about the Elwell mur- der,” William J. Burns, internationally famous detective said to me. “It was committed in all probability by a woman, and by a woman who had spent the greater part of the night in Elwell’s home pleading with him not to cast her off.” 2 In making this statement Burns took sharp issue with the authorities, in- vestigating the case, who insist that the actual shooting was done by a man though they admit (hat a woman was connected with it. Burns himself has done no work on the murder, but has read with extreme care newspaper ac: counts of it and has arrived at his G does not remove the possibility of a woman being responsible,” said Burns. “The trigger of an automatic pulls very easily; all that is necessary is a | slight pressure, and indeed it is a wea- ;pon that a desperate, infuriated woman might well be supposed to have used. Fix the situation in your mind and discard the unessentiol features. Lived Free and Easy. “Ellwell has lived a free and easy life with women. Then the report cir- culates ‘that he is about to re-marry. He even goes so far as to engage a home for the Saratoga racing season in the name os ‘Mr. and Mrs. Elwell.’ “Word of this reaches one of the women with whom he has been on in- timate terms and who possesses the key to his city house. She comes there the night preceding the murder) She waits for him until he gets home. “We know, by the testimony of a reliable witness. that he arrived home at 3:45 a.m. It makes no difference where he spent his time since leaving the Lewisohns nor who was the man in the automobile to whom he waved goodby. “He went up stairs and found there the woman who had come to plead with him not to throw her over. She was in the bedroom he had furnished tercourse with England, ‘France, America and Italy if we are to live on terms of peace and amity with them. ‘New Bulgaria desires sincere- ly to ally itself with the entente.” DEMANDS UNITY AMONG CONSULS. 10 AID TRADE American Speaker at Dinner in South, America Applauded for His Remarks Buenos Ares, June 22.—Consul Gen- 2val Robertson was applauded by the "Inited States Exporters’ Association of Buenos Aires when &t a luncheon re- cently, he declared that there should be but one authority in foreign coun- ries to represent the United States in foreign trade relations. The luncheon was given in honor of Dr. Julius Kiein, United States Com- mercial attache, who is retiring from ‘he service. He was asked by Mr. Robertson to urge on his return to the United States the necessity of placing ‘he commercial and financial functions of consuls and commerical attaches under one head.

She may have asked him one more question and it is likely he replied with a laugh or a curt ‘no.’ ~ “Then she revealed her pistol, took accurate aim at his head and fired. Af- ter this she swiftly dressed and left the house. It is even possible that she returned later to remove tell- tale bits of evidence. “I am certain that more questioning of the Larsen woman, Elwell’s former housekeeper, will reveal a great deal about the socalled mystery.

The amount granted for this purpose was 23,000,000 krone as a first instalment and the line which is first to be electrified is that between Go- then and Stockholm. It is expected that next year the par- liament will grant means for similar work on the big trunk lines of Malmu- Stockholm and Stockholm-Boden.

Mr. Roosevelt wrote in reply to an inqury as to whether anw reorganiza- tions, reforms or.consolidations could be made in the Nayy department. The assistant secretary did not confine him- self to that department.

Fi MORE power is required to * plow the fields of America than is used in all its factories, : In view of the decrease of man- power on the farms, the impor- tance of motor-power is demon- strated easily... With hand labor the time required to produce a bushel of wheat was a little over three hours. With improved machinery this has been reduced to ten minutes. Power machinery has multiplied the power of man eighteen times. The gasoline engine is the only power unit embracing all re- quirements for farm work. It looks as though it is up to gasoline to grub-stake society. For years hand-labor has been Iraving the farms and motor- power has been taking its place. Long ago the Standard Oil Com- pany (Indiana) realized that if America was to maintain: its bounteous crop production there}. : must be close co-operation be- tween the Company and ~the farmer; ‘therefore, the Company proceeded to: build up through the farm districts of ihe Middle West the most complete system of distribution of oil products in the world. This delivery system with its 3,780 bulk stations, its7,000 motor trucks and tank wagons, its 1,300 Service Stations, and its personnel of 10,000 trained men, could not be built up in a month or in a year. It is the result of long and . patient effort. iP This immense system for the pro- duction and distribution of gaso- line and other petroleum prod- ucts is complete, installed and in full operation now, when it is needed as never before. ; Standard (Oil Company 910 So.
