You tell » boy!” “Let's go, lers, let's gol” “Ain't it the truth?” VON MACH MEETING TREASON- ABLE, SAYS LITTLETON. It was a natural response to the argument which Mr. Littleton had been making as to the “fat-headed German statesmanship’ which had gonencted the von March meeting as 4n exhibit before the London repara- tion conference between the Allies and Germany ond his, despairingly ocon- fessed inability to explain the inabil- ity of Germany to know that when she was beaten she was beated, and that the rest of the world knew 't, too, and was not to be humbugged out of the knowledge. Pretty much every- body on the platform rose with the audience oes Gen. Pershing and his , alde. The neral looked at the General; they both burst out laugh- ing at each other and rose together.

The application of the New York Central Railroad to cut the wages of about 23,000 unskilled employees on April 1 was despatched yes*orday and is expected to be in the h of the Railway Labor Board in Chi to- day. The road seeks to reduce wages an average of about 13 cents an hour. Accompanying the application is a mass of data showing the downward trend in the cost of living and the re. ductions in wages paid unskilled labor in other industrie, In connection with the general movement of all the big railroads in the country to cut wases, the Associa- tion of Railway Executives to-day made public Qgures showing the ad- vances since 1917, in the labor cost of transportation. Here are some of the more interesting statements thereof: “The ight rate on 100 pounds of dry goodé from Lowell, Maas, to Seattle in 1917 was $1. At present the labor cost alone on such @ ship- ment Is $1.04. “In 1917 the freight rate on a bushel of wheat from Kansas to New York was 27 cents. At present the lator cost elone of transporting a bushel of wheat from Kansas to New York is 27 cents, or the same as the entire cost of the operation in 1917. “The freight on livestock from Montana to Chicago in 1917 was 6.3 per 100 pounds, The present rate is 13.6 cents. The labor cost at present is 6.76 cents, or more than the total rate in 1917.” The Bureau of Railway Economics has prepared the following figures to show the pay and number of railroad employees have increased: Brera 1017 | 191s 1910 | 1920 comer eeeeie |Sir Moses Kackiel’s Body to Be Barted | at Arliagtes, WASHINGTON, March 19.—The body of Sir Moses Ezekiel, world famous sculptor, who died in Rome, Italy, in 1917, wil) ‘be buried in.

It you haven't, do it immediately and try to earn your share of the $1,000 which Mr, Edward Hatch jr, the fly's greatest enemy, has given to The Evening World for distribution among New York children of ten years or less. READ THD RULES OAREFULLY. ‘The first week of the great con- ‘was | teat ie over and many, many letters ra have been received from children. Without a doubt these youngsters realize how dangerous Mr. Fly is to New York, for they have not only reviled him, but they have told of many ways of exterminating the pest. The fly, you know, breeds mostly in the ri.use from stables, but also lays its eggs in ashes, refuse, cesspools, straw and textile fabrics which have become dirty, mushrooms, decaying vegetables, foods and fruits, and what khown collectively as garbage. While it is imperative to SWAT every fiy that is seen, to prevent fur- ther breeding, it is also necessary to clean out all breeding places. Remove all refuse ¢rom your yards before the warm weather comes, and see that it is not allowed to collect. Keep the garbage cans covered. A solution of formaldehyde in water, poured over heaps of refuse will kill eggs. Of course, screens and screen dotrs should be on every house in New York. But if the flies do get in the following recipe will kill them: Three teaspoonfus of sodi: salicylate to one pint of wa Put in drinking glass, parti: filling it, and place on a sai a piece of blotting paper thi of the saucer, Quickly inve: holding the liquid, and then atch under the edge of glass to allow the liquid to hi even dually.
