CALLS AMERICA
IDEALIST NATION
aetorlinck Doclaros Prohibi-
mif' tion Proves Asceticism of
United States
FAYS TRIBUTE TO ITS VALOR
New York, Jan. 2. "I hope that the
cetlclim of America refilling from
prohibition will not prevent us from
prinking the health of America," paid
?niurice Maeterlinck, yesterday at n
unchoon given in the apartment of
Alexander A. Anderson.
"I am deeply touched by the extraor
dinary reception which America hns
jrfTtn rac," he added. "I find that
this country is naturally the most
idealistic and the most wonderful in the
world. She proved this first in her
wartime exhibits of valor and secondly
when she was the first civilized nation
In tho world to have prohibition. The
latter is supreme idealism.
' "The democracy of America cannot
bo excelled by any other world -known
country. However. I should like to tell
a" little Incident which I believe illus
trates the democracy of the roaltics of
my own little 'country.
Democracy of Rclgian King
"Before the war it was in 1011 or
thereabouts I wns attending a gala
performance of one of my opcrns in the
Opera House at Brussels The king
nnd queen of the Belgians were in a box
in the center of the house, and I was
occupying one not fat away.
"During an cntr' act an equerry of
his majesty came to me and said that
the king wished to sec me. As I had
never before met a royalty I felt some
what reluctant as to the procedure, I
asked the equerry what I should call the
king. 'Oh,' ho nnswered, 'be very fa
miliar with him, but don't call him old
fellow right away.' I had a very pleas
ant little audience with their majesties,
nnd as I left the royal box I received
the Grand Order of Leopold. Not
knowing what this wns nnd being rather
nervous, I hastily stuffed it into my
pocket. As I left the box the audience
applauded and stood up to cheer me,
and somebody said : 'Why don't you
wear your decoration?' I did not know
what they meant, as I believed the king
had given mo a. macaroon.
Willi King and Queen
"Next day n messenger came from
the king with n message that I was re
quested to set an hour for appearance
nt court, 1 answered that .'i o'clock
in the afternoon would be convenient.
The messenger returned to, say that.
Although their majesties were in the
habit of going out driving nt !? o'clock
they had decided to btay in in order
to sec me. The king received me in tho
queen's npartment. as he said his own
was considered too ugly to receive
artists. There were but two servants
in the apartment nnd their majesties
were most affable and interesting.
"The king talked to me about box
ing, which he said he liked n great
deal but could not indulge in at that
time of the year on account of his
fear of getting a black eye. He told
me he believed he felt more awkward
and embarrassed than I did the day
before at the onera. as he -aid he was
not in the habit of meeting literary
men. The little children of their mnj
esties left the palace with me The
queen told me she had a-ked for this
nudience to show me that royalties were
human and were not as silly as they
looked."
CHICAGO CLEAN-UP
NETS 200 RADICAL
State and City Authorities Begin
Sweep in Defiance of A. IVI.
Palmer's Orders
"PUSSYFOOTING" CHARGED
Chicago, Jan. 2. More than 200 al
leged members of approximately sev
enty radical organizations nnd cults,
among whom membrs of the Industrial
Workers of the World, the Communist
I.nbor party, the Communists nnd the
Anarchists and Syndicab-ts predomi
nated, today were in jail awaiting ac
tion of state nnd federal officers, and
raiding parties still Sought other sus
pects. The raids were directed bv Maclay
Hoyne. state's attorney, and mnrked
culmination of a live months' investi
gation bv agents of the state's attor
ney's office, private detective agencies
and military intelligence operatives.
State and city police officers made the
arrests, federal officers withdrawing nt
the last minute on instructions of A.
Mitchell Palmer, federal attorney gen-
erul, accenting to Mr. lloync.
The raids on the 200 open and se
cret gathering places here of the alleged
radicals were begun late yesterday,
after Mr. Hoyne, according to n state
ment he issued, had leceived a letter
from Mr. Palmer, asking him not to
proceed with a plan for joint state nnd
federal action agreed on several months
ago. The attoiucly general based his
request on the ground that the raids
might interfere with government activi
ties, said Mr. Hoyne.
''Apparently Attorney General Pal
mer and soac of his friends are play
ing petty politics with the situation nnd
are pursuing n pussyfoot policy," said
Ho also asserted that radicals had
been 'tipped off by some employe or at
tache of the Department of Justice" that
the raid wns to tnkc place.
The prolonged investigation, the
county prosecutor said, had revealed
thnt members of radical organizations
daily preached the overthrow of the
government and that the I. W. AV the
communist party and the communist
labor party nnd anarchists and syndi
calists had distributed tons of seditious
Iltcrntuie.'
Chicago, New York, Boston, Cleve
land, Detroit nnd Seattle were the cen
ters of, the "criminal conspiracy," the
investigation disclosed, he said.
Several women were among those
arrested. Search wns continued today
for William D. (Big Bill) Haywood,
general secretary of the I. W. W., and
other lenders.
A reoucst that a snecinl n-nml tnr
be impaneled to investigate activities of
"ltcas" probably will be made within
a few days, Mr. Hoyne indicated.
Under the Illinois syndicalism and
aun-rauicai low ennctea at the last ses
sion of the Legislature a mail mum enn.
tence of ten years' imprisonment may bo
imposed on persons convicted of radical
activities.
Among the places raided was the
Russian soviet school, declared by the
raiders to be under the direction of
Lttdwig Martens, Russian wiviet am
bassador to the United States, who has
ucaaqunricrs in icw xorK.
A hnlf dozen women were taken in
later raids last night. Among them
were Mrs. B. Dobrow and the MIssch
Vera and L. Dobrow, who the state
nttorney charged were brought from
Russia to work among women.
Assistant State Attorney Henrv A.
Berger asserted that it had been learned
that ltussinn radicals reach this coun
try by way of Sweden nnd Mexico. He
declnred they obtain passports throueh
the Swedish consul at Mexico City to
the United States.

SCIENCE TO FIND

TESTS MADE IN FACTORIES
him aside, bui that Is not considered
efficiency under present conditions and
methods of study, ho asserted.
In studying the physical industrial
condition to develop accurnte rules by
which production enn be enlarged, tests
have been made in factories showing the
effect of holidays on employes; the
effects of rest periods nnd the effect of
long hours on the number of accidents,
he declared. , . .
From these teBts, he continued,
efforts will be made to outline industrial
plans by which each lipo of work may
know whether tho human machine may
reach its greatest production by work
ing six, eight or ten hours n day and
at what period the most efficient work
enn do fyine.
By tho Associated Tress
St. Louis, Jan. 2. Results of an
investigation to determine the most
effective method of stimulating produc
tion by the proper use of the physical
power of workmen were outlined today
by 'Prof. 1 S. Leo of Columbia Uni
versity, New York, before the section
on physiology nnd experimental science
at the convention of the American As
sociation for Advancement of Science
here.
ProfesFor Lee, who during the war
studied industrial conditions abroad as
a federal investigator, said that indus
trial physiology wbb a new science de
veloped during the war. By the use
of physiological rules it is possible to
determine nt what period in the work
day the workman is most efficient in his
duties, he said.
The old rule of industry has been to
work a man to the limit nnd then throw

The greater the size of your truck-fleet, the more urgent
the need for standardizing your motor-fuel. For, only by
standardization can you keep a fair and accurate record
of the performance of the gasoline in respect to the other
elements of operating-cost.
In studying and supplying the petroleum needs of in
dustry over a period of fifty-some years, The Atlantic
Refining Company has compiled data that are unassailable
arguments for the definite economy of Atlantic Gasoline. '
In this connection we point, with pardonable satisfaction,
to the fact that an overwhelming majority of the State's
biggest fleet-owners use Atlantic . Gasoline exclusively.
Before contracting for the year's supply of motor-fuel,
investigate the achievements of Atlantic Gasoline in the
matter of greater mileage and lowered ultimate cost.
Our representative will call upon request, without
obligation to you.
