Von Papen Documents DisplayFraud and Trickery, Say British

Special CsM· ta The Wuhlaftoe Herald.London, Feb. 8.. British newspaper«. In commenting today upon the new

Von Tapen documents which have Just been made public in parliamentarypapers, declare that they ihow astounding; fraud and trickery.

These documents were said to have been taken from Cart, von Papen byBritish naval officerà while he waa on his way to Berlin from tha United rStates.Excerpts from editorial comment follow:

Pall Mall Gazette.Capt. von Papen's correspondence ehowed a wonderfulunanimity in opinions regarding Americans. The words "stupid'' an.1 "Idiotic''occur frequently. This Is the flrst time on record that Americans have seen

tliemeelves held before the world as foolish pereonr*».Ulobe.-The documents are the most astounding revelation of fraud and

Intrigue that even German trickery at Its worst could have Imagined or devised.Westminster Gaiette.These "Idiotic Yankees" cannot be got to admire

German kultur nor to understand the arguments about Belgium nor to appre¬ciate the imperative necessity which required the sinking of the Lusitani» andthe killing of women and children.

Proposes Moving U. S. Capital to

Milwaukee, Retreating Before "Drys"Moved by a fear that the Anti-Saloon League may force Congress to declare

the city of Washington "dry" territory. Representative Cary. of Wisconsin, yee¬terday offered a resolution proposing that Washington be abandoned a» theCapital City, and that Uncle Sam shall set up his headquarters ln Milwaukee,safe from the attacks of the Anti-Saloon League.

The resolution declares further that "prohibition is a menace to society asidgood government." Mr. Cary statea that these prohibition bills ought to lie de¬scribed. "An act to abolish responsible an«! representative government, and toestablish at Washington a centralized despotism laid In hypocriay and sup¬ported by the spy system." Mr. Cary believes that "prohibition In Washingtonwould spell ruin to the Capital." and accordingly his resolution directs that "theCapital of the United Slates ba removed to Milwaukee, a city who»? citizens are

libel ty loving."The Cary resolution was referred to the Committee on Alcoholic Liquor

Traffic.

Dry Forces Plan to Keep SheppardBill Away From District Committee

By JOffKPII P. AWHIN.That the prohibition forces would seek

to force consideration of the Sheppardhill by the House without It being re¬

ferred to the District Committee, In theevent of Its passage in the Senate, wasthe declaration yesterday of a man closeto the directors of the prohibition tight.Despite the rapidly increasing obstacles

to the passage of the bill in the Senate.Its sponsors profess absolute coniidenceof success there, and are seeking a

modus operandi to assure its considera¬tion at an early date by the entire House.It Is realized that, uniese the bill comes

up for debete in the House before No¬vember. Us chances of passage will beconsiderably lessened. Many memberswhose districts contain a heavy prohibi¬tion vote are anxious to postpone theissue until after election. The HouseDistrict Committee ls recognized as themost potent factor in bringing about thispostponement, because of this, prohibi¬tion force« hone to keep the bin fromgoing.to the committee. In the event offailure In thle. a determined effort willhe made to force a report on the measurehy threatening to have the House dis¬charge the committee from considerationof the bill.

Preffdret for Procedere.Tt Is recalled thst once before a bill

was ordered reported before the commit¬tee to which It had been referred had an

opportunity to table It. This was In theflght over the Vreeland emergency cur¬

rency act, when the House, by a two-thirds vote, discharged the Banking andCurrency Committee from considerationsimultaneously with the Introduction ofthe bill. It Is extremely doubtful, how¬ever, whether the prohibitionists could!muster a two-thirds vote in the House.

Another íosslbility is that the rulescommittee may be asked for a specialrule to discharge the committee. This is

a course which has never been adopted,as far as could be learned yesterday. Ifthe rules committee should report out arule discharging the committee a straightmajority vote would be sufliclcnt to finishthe Job. However. It was declared yes¬terday that any attempt on the part ofthe rules committee to arrogate to lt.eelfthe authority of virtually discharging acommittee would meet with u «torni of?rot«eat.In th*1 Senate opposition to the bill lsaucuslng In telephone booths und sharp¬ening as many different knives as prom¬ise any hope of effective uie. The mostdetermined tight will ho made around anattempt to incorporate a referendumrider on the loor.In this connection it is suggested that

the extremely drastic nature of the hillmay bring about its defeat. Whlls Sena¬tor Sheppard has announced that he Is«llling to make changes In the measureto protect certain interests In the Dis¬trict, other prohibition Senators are get¬ting ready to oppose any change. Theytake the position that they have beencalled upon to support a certain, measureand that they stand ready t'» do so. butthat they do not propose to stand for alot of special exceptions not contení·plated ln the original measure.Senator Sheppard, whose name is at-

tarlied to the bill, announced yesterdayhis opposition to any referendum on themeasure, and apparently hi.-« position isthat of a number of rabid prohibitionists.However, .is the draatic nature of the billbecomes more generally recognized, thestrength of the opposition and the refer-* ndurn proposal is increasing dally.

I'd Like to Use my CarThis Winter, But.Everyone will admit that precautions to

be taken with most cars in winter use are,at the least, annoying.

Anti-freeze solutions, heated garages,water heaters, blanketed radiators.all are

things that most motorists would like to for¬get about.

Why ro through another winter's motoringwith fear for the condition of your car?

The Franklin car is direct air cooled.nowater, radiator, pipes, plumbing, no leaking, no

freezing.You can let it stand along the curb as long

as you wish without any concern, no matter howcold.

Ask for a ride in the Franklin and learn thereasons for the satisfaction it gives.
