Smith Argues That Convention Held in Mis- souri Would Be Big Help to the Party at Election Time. SN.“ Dec. 7.—The Demo- cratic National Committee here today to fix the time and place of the next Dem- ocratic national convention, elect a | secretary, disposed of contests for mem- bership from Kentucky and Oregon and transact such other business as might come before it, including the reception of advocates for and against woman suffrage. Ot the three cities in the field for the convention, St. Louis claimed priority. ite delegates said openly that the com mittee would decide in its favor on the second or third ballot, an allegation that was not conceded, however, by the dele- gates from Dallas and Chicago. The delegation from St. Louis is claim- ing 24 votes of the 27 necessary for choice on the first ballot. This is an increase of four over yesterday's esti- mute and goes to illustrate that the campaign waged in behalf of St. Louis has not been in vain, “We are telling the members of the National Committee, said James E. Smith, chairman of the delegations, “that Missouri is one of the doubtful states politicany and that the selection of St. Louis as the convention city will have @ great influence upon the ulti- mimte result in the State. From a polit- ‘teal standpoint no better selection could be and 1 feel sure that ‘thin argu. ment is meeting with success. -. After two hours’ discussion, the Ken- icky Case contest was referred to a committee of three, Norman E. Mack of New York, Kdwin O. Wood of Mich- igan and John T. McGraw of West Vir- ginia, which decided in favor of Woods Oo. Will a. King, won his fight for a seat from Oregon. Thomas J. Pence, assistant to the chairman, was elected secretary pro tempore, In Kxécutive Session, After a short open meeting the com- mittee went into executive session. Although the Dallas men maintained that they had no intention of abandon- ing. their fight for the convention, sev- eral expressed the private opinion that their chances of winning were slight. The belief became more prevalent that St. Louis would get the convention. It was thought likely the convention city would be selected late today. Dallas will go before the committee with a certified check for $100,000 ready to turn it over to the treasurer of the committee, the moment the Northern Texas metropolis is selected as the con- vention city. It generally has been un- derstood that St. Louls would offer a similar amount, although there were re- porte that the delegation from Missouri might spring a surprise that would sweep the other contestants from the field, "WASHING: Te Receive Women, The committee will receive opposing delegations of woman suffrage. The suffragists were first to ask a hearing and when it was announced this had been granted, the anti-suffragists, nes dec by Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge of New York, sought a similar privilege.

The trial of the first of the arson in- dictments growing out of the investiga- tion of the many. mysterious fires in St. Louis during the past year, which was postponed yesterday because of the absence of a jury from Judge Cave's court, was started today. The defendants are Julius R. Bersch, of 5731 Von Versen avenue, an insurance agent; Harold G. Gilmére of 5000 Del- mar boulevard, president of the Gilmore Bonfig Decorating Co., and Harry C. Imel of 722 Aubert avenue, secretary of the company. They are charged with second and third degree arson, and are accused of promoting and arranging the details for an explosion and fire which wrecked the interior of the Gilmoré-Bonfig store at 4456 Olive street July 24. Edward Millner, alias Ben Miller, charged in an indictment with having actually started the fire. He took a sev- erance and will not be tried until after the other cases are disposed of. The principal witness for the State is Herbert O. Baker of Webster Groves, an insurance agent, who has confessed to the Circuit Attorney his participa- tion in several arson plots, It was large- ly on his testimony that indictments were returned ‘against Bersch, Gilmore and Imel.

WITNESS IN $10°000 DAMAGE SUIT He Testifies Signals Were Given By Signs In Pliant Where Fellow- Emploe Was Hurt. Ernst Ogle of Valley Park, a deaf mute, was the star witness in a $10,000 damage siut in the court of Judge G. A. Wurdeman at Clayton, today. Ogle was employed on May 2% as a lifter in the St. Louis Plate Glass plant at Val- ley Park, where Frank Sezerbowlez was also employed, when a plate of glass 9x12 feet and weighing 100 pounds slipped, and Sezerbosiez was ° severely cut upon the right arm. He aske.. $10,- 000 from the company, alleging that the firm was careless in permitting Ogle to work, and that the accident was dut to Ogle being unable to hear a warning. Sezerbowiez testified that as six men started to life the glass plate from a polishing tabie, that one of the men shouted: “Wait a minute, dut that j Ogle did not hear the cry and lifted his end of the glass so it fell. Ogle testified in deaf-mute language. His testimony, interpreted by his broth- er, was to the effect that verbal orders werg never givén in moving glass. He bald signals were given by tapping upon the glass or by nods of the head. He said that probably eight languages were used by the woramen in the plant, and but few could understand one another.

There are citizens of the United States, I blush to admit, born under other flags but welcomed under our generous naturaliza- tion laws to the full freedom and opportunity of America, who have poured the poison of disloyalty into the very arteries of our national life; have sought to bring the authority and good name of our Government into contempt; industries wherever they thought it effective for their vindictive purposes to strike at them, and to debase our politics to the uses of foreign intrigue. Their number is not great as compared with the whole number of those sturdy hosts by which our nation has been enriched jn recent generations out of virile foreign stocks; but it is great enough to have brought deep disgrace upon us and to have made it necessary that we should promptly make use of processes of law by which we may be purged America never witnessed anything like this be- It never dreamed it possible that men sworn into its own citizenship, men drawn out of great free stocks such as supplied some of the best and strongest elements of that little, but how heroic, nation that in a high day of old staked its very life to free itself from every entanglement that had darkened the fortunes of the older nations and set up a new standard here—that men of such origins and such free choices of allegiance would ever turn in malign reaction against the Government and peo- ple who had welcomed and nurtured them and seek to make this proud country once more a hotbed of LITTLE while ago such a thing would have Because it was incred- ible we made no preparation for it. would have been almost ashamed to prepare for it, as if we were suspicious of ourselves, our own com- But the ugly and incredible thing has actually come about and we are without President’s Denunciation of Disloyalty; His Call for Laws to Deal With It adequate Federal and feel that in of the nation. who to destroy our ment in order to tually. his pride to keep But it cannot.

Boy- Ed . Von Papen Are Objectionable Because of Military and Naval Activities—Eerlin to Recall Them. By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Dec. Lansing has replied to Germany that the American Government's request for the withdrawal of Capt. Boy-Ed and Capt. von Papén, the naval and military at- taches, réspectively, of the German em- bassy here, was entirely because of their military and naval activities. Secretary Lansing’s reply to the Ger- man Government's inquiry, which indi- eated the Berlin Foreign Office intended to contest the withdrawal of the at- taches under certain conditions, was de- livered in a long communication which the German embassy immediately for- warded to Berlin. At the embassy al) comment on it was refused. resident Approves Course. President Wilson has fully approved Secretary Lansing’s decision and it was said authoritatively today it will be ad- hered to no matter what Germany does. There was no indication whether the reply would meet the contention of the German Government that it should know the reasons for the request for the withdrawal of its officers. It was broadly intimated to the State Department that if the request was based on something else than the de- velopments of the Hamburg-American line conspiracy trial or the case of James F. J. Archibald, the American war correspondent, who secretly carried dispatches for Capt. von Papen, Ger- many would decline to withdraw either of the men. The general impression was that Sec- retary Lansing’s reply at some length repeats that the two officers have be- come persona non «rata because of their military and naval activities and that further under diplomatic usages existing between nations, it is unneces- sary for one Government to do more than intimate to another that the pres- ence of a dipiomatic officer is distaste- ful. Overnight advices from Berlin indicat- 7.—Secretary | ed that the German Government would withdraw the officers as requested al- though it might press for a bill of par- ticulars. The position of the State Department is that it will not discuss the facts in the case, nor reveai the sources of its information, which have led to the deci- sion that the activities of the two Ger- man attaches make their presence in this country no longer desirable. Mexican Rumors Investigated. The Department of Justice still is in- vestigating reports that German agents were back of alleged plans for a coun- ter-revolution in Mexico, to be headed by Gen. Huerta. Attorney-General Greg- ory’ said today, however, that no new information on the subject had been called to his attention recently. Emphasis placed on the statement that that military and naval activities alone were considered was taken to indicate that other German officials were not in any way concerned. Germany to Comply With Request for Recall of Attaches. By Associated Press, BERLIN, via London, Dec. 7.—The re- euest received here from the United States for the recall of Capt. Franz von Papen and Capt. Karl Boy-Ed, military end naval attaches, respectively of the German embassy at Washington, Wil undoubtedly be complied with in accord- ance with diplomatic usage, it je said. liowever, Germany probably will ask first to be informed of the grounds on which the United States Government bases the undesirability of the attaches, News of the request for recall has not been published as yet by the German press. The above dispatch is the rst direct word to be refeived from Bérlin in re- gard to the probabje action of the Ger- man Government in response to the re- quest of the United States for the re- call of the two attaches. Germany al- ready has asked Washington for infor- mation as to the grounds on which the United States bases its request for a recall. ————U— NI — — ——— — —— —U—— ——Kx — JOHN |.

Spirit of Mutual Service. This is Pan-Americanism. it has none of the spirit of empire in it. It is the embodiment, the effectual embodiment, of the spirit of law and independence and liberty and mu- tual service. A very notable body of men re- cently met in the City of Washing- ton, at the invitation and as the guests of this Government, whose deliberations are likely to be looked back to as marking a memorable turning point in the history of Amer- ica. hey were representative spokesmen of the several independ- ent states of this hemisphere and were assembled to discuss the finan- cial and commercial relations of the republics of the two continents which nature and political fortune have so intimately linked together. I earnestly recommend to your per- usal the reports of their proceed- ings and of the actions of their com- mittees. You will get from them, I think, a fresh conception of the ease and intelligence and advantage with which Americans of both continents may draw together in practical co- foundations of this hopeful partner- ship of interest must consist—of how we should build them and of how necessary it is that we should hasten their buflding. Emphasis on Future. There is, I venture to point out, an especial significance just now attach- ing to this whole matter of draw- ing the Americans together in bonds” of honorable partnership and mutual advantage because of the economic readjustments which the world must inevitably witness within the next generation, when peace shall have at last resumed its healthful tasks. In the performance of these tasks I be- eve the Americas to be destined to play their parts together. I am interested to fix your attention on this prospect now because unless you take it within your viéw and permit the full significance of it to command your thought I cannot find the right light in which to set forth the parti matter that lies at the very front of my whole thought as I address you today. I mean national defense.” e to Protect Rights establishment is no larger than is actually and continuously needed for the uses of days in which no enemies move against us. But we do believe in a body of free citizens ready and sufficient to take care of themselves and of the governments which they have set up to serve them. In our constitutions themselves we have commanded that: the right of the people to keep and bear arms sha)! not be infringed.“ and our confi- dence has been that our safety in times eof danger would lie in the ris- ing of the nation to take care of itself, as the farmers rose at Ler- ington. Disciplined Might. But war has never been a mere matter of men and guns, It is a thing of aisciplined might. If our citizens are ever to fight effectively upon a sudden summons, they must know how modern fighting is done, and what tc do when the summons comes to render themselves imme- diately available and immediately effective. And the Government must be their servant in this matter, must supply them with the training they of it. The military arm of their Government, which they will not al- low to direct them, they may prop- erly use to serve them and make their independence secure—and not thelr own independence merely, but the rights also of those with whom ve made common cause, y also be put in jeopardy. g g 25 TELE kei! e 3 essential first steps, and they seem to me for the present sufficient. By way of making the country ready to assert some part of its real training would not necessarily exceed two months in the year. It would depend upon the patriotic feeling of the younger men of the country whether they responded to such a call to service or not. It would depend upon the patriotic spirit of the employers of the country whether they made it possible for the younger men in their employ to respond under favorable conditions or not. I, for one, do not doubt the patriotic devotion either of our young men or of those who give them em- ployment—those for whose benefit and protection they would in fact en- list. I would look forward to the success of such an experiment with entire confidence. Preparation Imperative. At least so much by way of prepa- ration for defense seems to me to be absolutely imperative now. We can- not do less. The program which will be laid be- fore you by the Secretary of the Navy is similarly conceived. It in- volves only a shortening of the time within which plans long matured shall be carried out; but it does make definite and explicit a program which has heretofore been ‘only implicit, held in the minds of the Committees on Naval Affairs and disclosed in the debates of the two houses, but nowhere formulated or formally adopted. It seems to me very clear that it will be to the advantage of the country for the Congress to adopt a comprehensive plan for putting the ma vy upon a final footing of strength and efficiency and to press that olan to completion within the next five years. We have always looked to che navy of the country as our first. and chief line of defense; we have always geen it to be our manifest course of prudence to be strong on the seus. Year by year we have been creating a navy which now ranks very high indeed among the navies of the mari- time nations. We should now defi- nitely determine how we shall com- plete what we have begun, and how goon. The program to be laid before you contemplates the construction with- in five years of 10 battleships, six battle cruisers, 10 scout cruisers, 50 destroyers, 15 fleet submarines, % coast submarines, four gunboats, one hospital ship, two ammunition ships, two fuel oll ships and one repair ship. It is proposed that of this number we shall the first year provide for the construction of two battleships, two battle cruisers, three scout cruisers, 15 destroyers, five fleet submarines, &@ coast submarines, two gunboats and one hospital ship; the second year, two battleships, one scout cruiser, 10 destroyers, four fleet submarines, 16 coast submarines, one gunboat and one fuel of] ship; the third year, two battleships, one battie cruiser, two scout cruisers, five destroyers, two fleet submarines and 15 coast sub- marines; the fourth year, two battle- ships, two battle cruisers, two scout cruisers, 10 destroyers, two fleet sub- marines, 15 coast submarines, one ammunition ship and one fuel oll ship: and the fifth year, two battle- ships, one battle cruiser, two scout cruisers, 10 destroyers, two fleet sub- marines, u coast submarines, one gunboat, one ammunition ship and one repair ship. More Men for the Navy. The Secretary of the Navy is ask- ing also for the immediate addition to the personnel of the navy 7500 sailors, 2600 apprentice seamen, and 1500 marines. This increase would be sufficient to care for the ships which are to be completed within the fiscal year 1917 and also for the num- ber of men which must be put in training to man the ships which will be completed early in 1918. It is also necessary that the number of mid- shipmen at the Naval Academy at Annapolis should be increased by at least 900 in order that the force of of- ficers should be more rapidly added to; and authority is asked to appoint, for engineering duties only, ap- proved graduates of engineering col- leges, and for service in the aviation corps a certain number of men taken from civil life. If this full program should be car- ried out we should have built or building in 1921, according to the esti- mates of survival and standards of classificatien followed by the General Board of the Department, an effeo- tive navy consisting of 27 battle- ships of the first line, six battle cruisers, 26 battleships of the sec- ond line, 10 armored cruizers, 13 scout cruisers, five first-class cruisers, three second-class cruisers, 10 third- class cruisers, 108 destroyers, 18 fleet submarines, 157 coast submarines, six monitors, 20 gunboats, four supply ships, 15 fuel ships, four transports, three tenders to ‘torpedo vessels, eight vessels of special types, and two ammunition ships. This would be a navy fitted to our needs and worthy of our traditions. Adequate Merchant Marine Needed; Ship Purchase Measure Advocated But armies and instruments of war are only part of what has to be con- sidered if we are to consider the su- preme matter of national self-suf- ' ficiency and security in all its as- pects. There are other great matters which will be thrust upon our atten- tion whether we will or not.. There is, for example, a very pressing ques- tion of trade and shipping. invol in this great problem of national equacy. It is necessary for many weighty reasons of national effi- ciency and development that we should have a great merchant ma- rine. The great merchant fleet we once used to make us rich, that great body of sturdy sailors who used to carry our flag into every sea, and who were the pride and often the bulwark of the nation, we have al- most driven out of existence by in- excusable neglect and indifference and by a hopelessly blind and pro- vincial policy of so-called economic protection. It is high time we re- paired our mistake and reaumed our commercial independence on the seas. For it is a question of indepen- dence. If other nations go to war or seek to hamper each other’s com- merce, our merchants, it seems, are at their mercy, to do with as they please. We must use their ships, and use them as they determine. We have not ships enough of our own. We cannot handle our Own come merce on the seas. Our independence is provincial, and is only on land and within our own borders. We are not likely to be permitted to use even the ships of other nations in rivalry of their own trade, and are without means to extend our com- merce even where the doors are wide open and our goods desired, Such a situation Is not to be endured. Should Be Own Carrier. It is of capital importance not only that the United States should be its own carrier en the seas and enjoy the economic independence which only an adequate merchant marine would give it, but also that the Am- erican hemisphere as a whole should enjoy a like independence and self- sufficiency, if it is not te be drawn into the tangle of European affairs. Without such independence the whole question of our political unity and self-determination is very seriously clouded and complicated in- deed. Moreover, we can develop no true or effective American policy without ships of our own,—not ships of war. but ships of peace, carrying goods and carrying much more: creating friendships and rendering indien sable services to all interesta en this alde of the water. They must move constantly back and forth between the Americas. They are the only shutties that can weave the delicate fabric of sympathy, comprehension, confidence, and mutual dependence in which we wish to clothe our pol- 1 - | dertaken and achieved every other like task amongst us in the past, with admirable enterprise, intelligence, and vigor; and it.seems to me a manifest dictate of wisdom that we should promptly remove every legal obstacle that may stand in the way of this much to be desired revival of our old independence and should fa- cilltate in every possible way the building, purchase, and American registeration of ships. But capital cannot accomplish this great task of a sudden. It must em- bark upon it by degrees, as the op- portunities of trade develop. Some- thing must be done at once; done to open reutes and develop opportuni- ties where they are as yet un- developed; done to open the arteries of trade where the currents have not yet learned to run,—especially be- tween the two American continents, where they are, singularly enough, yet to be created andyquickened; and it is evident that only the govern- ment can undertake such beginnings and assume the initial financial risks. When the risk has passed and private capital begins to find its way in sufficient abundance into these new channels, the government may withdraw. But it cannot omit to be- ‘gin. It should take the first steps. and should take them at once. Our goods must not lle piled up at our ports and stored upon side tracks in freight cars which are daily needed on the roads; must not be left with- out means of transport to any for- eign quarter. We must not await the permisston of foreign ship-owners und foreign governments to send them where we wil. Government-Qwned Ships. With a view to meeting these pres- sing necessities of our commerce and availing ourselves at the earliest pos- sible moment of the present unpar- alleled opportunity of linking the two Americas together in bonds of mu- tual interest and service, an oppor- tunity which may never return again if we miss it now, proposais will be made to the present Con- gress for the purehase or construc- tion of shipa to he owned and direct- ed by the government similar to those made to the last Congress, but modified in some essential perticu- lars. ss ; | recommend these proposals to you for your promp! acceptance with the more confidence because every month that hea e'apeed since the former proposals were made has made the wecensity for such sactiok more and more manifertiy tmpera- tive. That need wae then ferseen; it is dow acutely felt and every- where realised dy those for „hom trade ts waiting Dut who can find no conveyance for their goods, T am not so much interested in the par- ticulare of the program as I am in taking immediate advantage of the great epportunity which awaits us if we will but act in this emergency. Philippine and Porto Rico Policy:; Preparedness Means Expenditure ‘ | for rendering fuller political justice to the peepie of Porto Rico were submitted to the Sixty-third Con- gress. They will be submitted also to you. I need not particularize their details. You are most of you al- ready familiar with them. But I do recommend them to your eariy adop- tion with the sincere conviction that there are few measures you could adopt which would more serviceably clear the way for the great policies by which we wish to make good, now and always, our right to lead in enterprises of peace and good will and economic and political free- dom. Win“ Exceed the Revenues. The plans for the armed forces of the nation which I have out- lined, and for the general policy of adequate preparation for mob- flization and defense, involve of course very large additional er- penditures of money—expendi- tures which will considerably ex- ceed the estimated revenues of the Governnient. It is made my duty by law, whenever the esti- mates of expenditure exceed the estimates of revenue, to call the attention of Congress to the fact and suggest any means of meet- ing the deficiency that it may be wise or possible for me to sug- gest. I am ready to believe that it would be my duty to do so in any case; and I feel particularly bound to speak of the matter when it appears that the deficiency will arise directly out of the adoption by the Congress. of measures which I myself urge it to adopt. Allow me, therefore, to speak briefly of the present state of the Treasury and of the fiscal problems which the next year will probably disclose. Question of Revenue. On the 20th of June last there was an available balance in the general fund of the Treasury of $104,170,- 105.78. The total estimated receipts for the year 1916, on the assumption that the emergency revenue measure passed by the last Congress will not be extended beyond its present limit, the Slst of December, 1915, and that the present duty of one cent per pound on sugar will be discontinued after the first of May, 1916, will be $670, 365,500. The balance of June last and these estimated revenues come, therefore, tg a grand total of $774,- 535,606.78. The total estimated dis- bursements for the present fiscal - year, including $26,000,000 for the Pan- ama Canal, $12,000,000 for probable deficiency appropriations, and 880. 000 for miscellaneous debt redemp- Sources of New Revenue l/ ithout Hampering Industries Suggested How shall we obtain the new rev- enue? We are frequently reminded that there are many millions of bonds which the Treasury is author- ized under existing law to sell to reimburse the sums paid out of cur- rent revenues for the construction of the Panama Canal; and it is true that bonds of approximately $222,- 000,000 are now available for that purpose. Prior to 1913 $134,631,980 of these bonds had actually been sold to recoup the expenditures at the Isthmus; and now constitute a con- siderable item of the public debt. But I, for one, do not believe that the people of this country approve of postponing the payment of their bills. Short-Sighted Finance, Borrowing money is short-sighted finance. It can be justified only when permanent things are to be accom- plished which many generations will certainly benefit by and which it seems hardly fair that a single gen- eration should pay for. The objects we are now proposing to spend money for cannot be so classified, except in the sense that everything wisely done may be said to be done in the inter- est of posterity as well as in our own. It seems to me a clear dictate of pru- dent statesmanship and frank finance that in what we are now, I hope, about to undertake we should pay as we go. The people of the country are entitled to know just what bur- Gens of taxation they are to carry, and to know from the outset, now. The new bills should be paid by in- ternal taxation. To what sources, then, shall we turn? This ie pecullarly a question which the gentlemen of the House of Representatives are expected un- der the Constitution to propose an answer to that you will hardly ex- pect me to do more than discuss it ir very general terms. We should be following an almost universal exam- ple of modern governments if we were to draw the greater part or even the whole of the revenues we need from the income taxes. By somewhat lowering the present limita of «ax- emption and the figure at which tbe vurtax shall begin to be imposed, and dy Increasing, step by step through- cut the present graduation, the sur- tax iteelf, the income taxes as at present apportioned would yield sums sufficient to balance the books of the Treasury at the end of the fiscal year i917 Without anywhere making the burden unreasonably or oppreasively heavy. The precise reckonings are fully and accurately set out in galion on gasoline and naptha would yield, at the | | ! ; ; ‘Indoor Li TAKE OIL OF WEIGHT DOWN, OR REDUCE | SUPERFLUOUS FAT. : : tions, will be $753,801.400; and the bal- ance in the general fund of the Treasury will be reduced to $§3),4H,- 6.7%. The emergency revenue act, if continued beyond its present time pound on sugar. if continued, would produce during the two months of the fiscal year remaining after the first of May, about $15,000,000. These two sums, amounting together to $54,000,000, if added to the revenues of the second half of the fiscal year, would yield the Treasury at the end of the year an avallable balance of $76,644,606.78. Additional Revenue Needed. The additional revenues requir- ed to carry out the program of military and naval preparation of which I have spoken, would, as at present estimated, be for the fiscal year 1917, $93,800,000. Those figures, taken with the figures for the present fiscal year which I have already given, disclose our financial problem for the year 1917. Assuming that the taxes imposed by the emergency reve- nue act and the present duty on sugar are to be discontinued, and that the balance at the close of the present fiscal year will be only $20,644,605.78, that the dis- bursements for the Panama Canal ll again be about $25,000,000, and that the additional expendi- tures for the army and navy are authorized by the Congress, the deficit in the general fund of the Treasury on the thirtieth of June 1917, will be nearly $235,000,000, To this sum at least $50,000,000 should be added to represent 4 safe working balance for the Treasury, and $12,000,000 to in- clude the usual deficiency esti- mates in 1917; and these additions would make a total deficit of some $297,000,000. If the present taxes should be gon- tinued throughout this year and the next, however, there would be a bal- ance in the Treasury of some $76,500,- 000 at the end of the present fiscal year, and a deficit at the end of the next year of only some $60,000,000, or, reckoning in $62,000,000 for defi- clency appropriations and a safe Treasury balance at the end of the year, a total deficit of some 5112, 000,000, The obvious moral of the figures is that it is a plain counsel of prudence to continue aH of the present taxes or their equivalents, and confine ourselves to the problem of providing $112,000,000 of new reve- nue rather than $297,000,000. heavily or too exclusively upon any one set of persons or undertakings What is clear is, that the industry of this generation should pay the bills of this generation. I have spoken to you today, gen- tlemen, upon a single theme, the thorough preparation of the nation to care for its own security and to make sure of entire freedom to play the impartial role in this hemisphere and in the world which we all be- lieve to have been providentially as- signed to it. I have had in my mind no thought of any immediate or particular danger arising out of our relations with other nations. We are at peace with all the nations of the world, and there is reason to hope that no question in controversy be- tween this and other Governments will lead to any serious breach of amicable relations, grave as some differences of attitude and policy 8 deen and may yet turn out to I am sorry to say that the gravest threats against our national peace and safety have been uttered within our own borders. There are citizens of the United Statca, I blush to ad- mit, born under other flags but wel- comed under our generous natural- ization laws to the full freedom and opportunity of America, who have poured the poison of disloyalty into the very arteries of our national life: who have sought to bring the author- ity and good name of our Government into contempt, to destroy our indua- tries wherever they thought it ef- fective for their vindictive purposes to strike at them, and to debase our politica to the uses ef foreign in- trigue. Their number is not gra as compared with the whole number of those sturdy hosts by which our nation has been enriched in recent generations out of virile foreign stocks; but it is great enough to have brought deep disgrace upon us and to have made it necessary that we should promtply make use. of processes of law by which we may be purged of their corrupt distem- pera.

A little while ago such a thing would have seemed incredible. Be- cause it was incredible we made no preparation for itt. We would have been almost ashamed to prepare for it, as if we were suspicious of our- selves, our own comrades and neigh- bors! But the ugly and incredible thing has actually come about, and we are without adequate Federal laws to deal with it. I urge you to enact such laws at the earliest possibile moment and feel that in doing so I am urging you to do nothing leas than save the honor and self-respect of the nation. Such creatures of passion, disloy- alty, and anarchy, must be crushed out. They are not many, but they are infinitely malignant, and the hand of our power should close over them at once. They have formed plots to destroy property, they have entered into conspiracies against the neutral- ity of the Government, they have Indus‘ries and Resources Should | Be Kept Ready for Mobilization While we speak of the prepara- tion of the nation, to make sure of her security and her effective power we must not fall inte the patent error of supposing that her real strength comes from armaments and mere safeguards of written law. It comes, of course, from her people, energy, their success in undertakings, their free oppor- tunity to use the natural resources of our great home land and of the lands outside our continental borders which look to us for pro- tection, for encouragement, and for assistance in their develop- ment; from the organization and freedom and vitality of our eco- nomic life. Vital Questiong Befere Nation. The domestic questions which engaged the attention of the last Congress are more vital to the nation in this its time of test than at any other time We cannot adequately make ready for any trial of our strength unless we wisely and promptly direct the force of our laws into these all- important flelds of domestic action. A matter which it seems to me we should have very much at heart is the creation of the right in- strumentalities by which to mobil- ize our economic resources in any time of national necessity. I take it for granted that I do not need your authority to call into systematic consultation with the directing officers of the army ond navy men of recognized leader- ship and ability from among our citizens who are thoroughly famil- lar, for example, with the trans portation facilities of the country and therefore competent to advise how they may be co-ordinated when the need arises, those who can suggest the best way in which to bring about prompt co-operation among the manufacturers of the country, should it be necessary, and those who could assist te bring the technical skill of the country to the ald of the Govern- ment in the solution of particular problems of defense. I only hope that if I should find it feasible to constitute such an ad- visory body the Congress would be willing te vote the small sum of money that would be needed to de- fray the expenses that would prob- ably be necessary (4 give it the clerical and administrative machinery with which to do serviceable work. What is more important is, that the industries and resources of the country should be available and ready for mobilization.

SAYS CANNOT: BE FORCED QUT OF NEUTRALITY Neither Will Cajolery Move Nation, Monarch Asserts in Exhaustive Interview With a Correspondent of the Associated Press—aAl- lies Need 400,000 Men to Win in the Balkans. Ruler Declares His People Have Had All of the War They Want and He Will Not See Country of Hel- lenes Turned Into a Bel-' gium or a Poland. — Sy a Staff Correspondent of the As. sociated Press. ATHENS, Saturday, Dec. 4., via Malta and London, Dec, 6.— That Greece shall not be forced or cajoled out of her neutrality and that the allies’ Balkan {© expedition will fail, unless undertaken with more men than now on the ground or on the way, were two statements contained in an interview the Associated Press correspondent had today with Constantine I, King of the Greeks, who in a message for America gave the reasons for the policy which has been followed by the Greek Government. He declared that if the allies, when driven back into Greece, would consider the Balkan. game ended and leave Greece, he would guarantee to protect their re- treat with his whole army. “IT am especially glad to talk for America,” said the King, “for Amer- ica will understand Greece's posi- tion. We are both neutral and are together determined, if it is humanly possible, not to court destruction by permitting ourselves to be drawn into the frightful vortex of the present European conflict. Both are trying by every honorable means to guard our sovoreignty, protect our own peo- ple and stand up for eur national in- terests, without sacrificing that nou- trality which we recognize as our only salvation. Even America Runs Nun. “America is protected from imme- diate danger by the distance which ‘peparates her from the battlefield. We, too, though that once But. the battlefield shifted and may = shift again. What is happening in Greece today may happen in America, Hol- land or any other neutral country to- morrow, if the precedent now sought to be established in the case of Greece is once fixed.” The interview with the King took place at nogw in the smaller palace, which is the King's personal residence, and the sudience lasted an hour. The King Was dressed in the simple uniform of a Greek General, and he displayed the cood-humored, almost youthful, candor of the ideal soldier to whom diplomatic expedients or Jack of frankness seemed repugnant or impossible. From time to time, emphasizing the earnestness and sincerity of. what he was saying. he thumped the table soundly with his clenched fist. Despite the seriousness of the message he was delivering, his fine gray eyes occa- sionally twinkled with raillery. “The fundamental cause of the en- tire threatening attitude of the en- tente Powers toward Greece today and of the painful situation of my country,” said the King, “te the en- tente’s own assumption, without the slightest reason therefore, that Greece is ready to betray the antente to Germany at the firat favorable op- portunity. Is it reasonable to up- port such a thing? Greece's Neutrality Stretched. „From the very outset ot hostili- the near Kast.

But that does not prevent the German-Bulgarian armies, as a measure of military necessity, from pursuing the retiring French and British into Greece, fighting in Greece, and turning Greece into a second Poland. I have that assur- ance also. “That the Greek frontiers will be re-erected after the war does not re- bulld towns or compensate my peo- ple for months, perhaps years, spent in living in misery as fugitives from their own iand, when their country is not at war and has nothing to gain by risking devastation. “Why, the entente Powers treat me as if I were the King of a cen- tral African tribe, to whom the suf- ferings of his own people were a matter of indifference. I have been through three wars. I know what war js. I do not want any more, if it can be honorably avoided. My people do not want any more, and if they and I can help it we shall not have any more.“ “Then your majesty does not be- lieve that the intervention policy of the former Premier, M. Venizelos, really expressed the will of the Greek people?“ i “I know it did not,“ replied the King forcefully, “When the people re-elected Venigelos they elected him, not his policy. The great mass of the people of Greece did not, and will not, understand anything about the Venizelos foreign policy. They like him and they elected him, but it would be the maddest folly to as- sume that because they voted for a man personally popular they there- fore voted to throw the country in a whirlpool of the Buropean war. They did no such thing. War is the last thing they want. Ask them; they will tell you. It is sald 1 have exceeded the Constitution. What I have done is to apply the Constitution. The Con- stitution gives me the power to dis- solve the Chamber to prevent just such disasters as following the Ven- izejos policy would have proved at this juncture. My duty under the Constitution was to exercise that power. 1 did exercise it and will continue to exercise it so Jong as it is necessary to save my people from destruction. Dian't Invite Allies te Saloniki. Another thing I want to make clear. It is said that M. Venizelos, with my assent, invited the allied troops to come to Saloniki. Nothing could be further from the truth. M. Venizelos may have expressed the personal opinion that if the allied troops landed at Saloniki, Greece would not resist. How could she re- sist? But that M. Venizelos ever, as the responsible head of the Greek Government, formally invited foreign troops to enter Greek territory is wholly untrue.” ; “Your majesty believes that the allied Balkan expedition is doomed to faliure?” “Certainly it is doomed to failure if undertaken with no more men than ere now there or on the way. “Great Britain does not seem dis- posed to send an adequate force and France cannot do the job alone. The DETROIT’S OPINION OF HENRY FORD ETROIT SATURDAY NIGHT, D a weekly publication for the | socially elect of Detroit, in its current issue, undertakes te set forth to the world Detroit's opin- ion of her most noted citizen, Henry Ford. This article says: “It will help others to under- stand Detroit's attitude toward Ma Ford's peace program if they know Mr., Ford as his neighbors know him: And it is, we believe, a fair estimate of the man to say that he is a mechanical genius of a sweet and lovable disposition with almost boundless ignorance on almost every subject of hu- man knowledge outside of his me- chanical specialties. He never had the advantage of an adequate edu- cation at school or college, and he has succeeded in reaching middle life with far less of the fruits of self-education than many men of the same age with less opportu- nities. On education, in fact, he is half agnostic. He does not believe in college education at all “except for a doctor or lawyer or some- thing like that.“ He has read less than the average schoolboy. He would never win a prize in spell- ing, and what he gays so freqnent- ly and s0 verbosely in the news- papers of late months is what oth- ers say for him, and write for him, and in large measure think for “There has been an extraordinary change in Henry Ford in the past year—from the time, be it noted, that President Wilson sent for him to interpret the state of the country, Mr. Ford, we understand, neither added to nor subtracted from the sum of the President's knowledge, but he came home a changed man. Before that fateful day he was al- ways modest in expressing an opin- ion about things he did not know or understand, thus conserving a large portion of his leisure hours for other things; but since then he seems to have been talking with increasing velocity and variety, barring neither the cigarette nor the National Guard in the whirlwind of his de- nunciations, nor neglecting the humble convict in his reform of penology. Today he predicts the end of the war, much as Dowle predicted the end of the world. How much he means of it we do not know, though we recall that Dowle’s end came first. “Tf so be that Mr. Ford's megalo- mania requires a sensation of some proportions, he is to be congratu- lated on the result. No private cit- izen within the recollection of this generation has pulled off any stunt that compares with his peace expedition in newspaper publicity. But if we are to ascribe to Henry Ford complete indifference to his own fame and name, and full sin- cerity in this enterprise we pay a very poor compliment to his intelli- gence. Don Quixote was sincere, too, but he got into the funny pa- ane in his day, just as Brother Henry is getting into them now. The Detroit Times, an afternoon ‘daily, published an editorial a few days ago, warmly commending Ford and his plan, and defending him against his critics. They try to drive Greece out of neu- trality; they come into Greek terri- tory and waters as though they were theirs. At Nautlia they destroyed tanks of petroleum, intended to kill locusts, on the excuse that they might be used by German subma- rines. They stop Greek ships; they ruin Greek commerce—as they have done with American ships, too; they want to seize our railways, and now they demand that we take away the troops guarding the Greek frontiers, leaving my country open to invasion or any lawless incursion. “I will not do it. I am willing to discuss reasonably any fair pro- posals. But two things I will not concede: Greece shall not be forced or cajoled out of her neutrality; Greece will maintain her sovereignty and her sovereign right to protect herself at need.“ “And if that is not satisfactory if coercive measures are used by the entente Powers,“ the King was asked?“ “We shall protest to the whole world that our sovereign rights are violated. We shall resist passively, as long as we humanely can, being forced by any measures whatsoever into a course which we know will be prejudicial to the liberties and hap- piness of our people.“ “And when you cannot hold out longer!“ “We shall have to demobilize our armies and await the march of events. What else ¢an we do?’ King Constantine is a brother-in-law of the German Emperor. He received rauch of his military training in Ger- many, and was a brilliant commander in the Balkan war, in which Saloniki was won from the Turks.

TUESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 7, 1915: “WATCHING, PARIS NEWSPAPER SAYS “Possessed of Extraordinary Originality of Mind and Can Become Dangerous.”’ ON BOARD STEAMSHIP OSCAR I, AT SEA, by wireless via Siasconsett, Dec. 7.—Henry Ford, head of the party of peace advocates now en route to Europe, has sent a wireless message to Congress, asking support for his plans to end the European war. PARIS, Dec. 7.—The French news- papers publish details of the Ford peace trip, some of them comment- ing on it. The Journal des Debats devotes its first page to an article entitled, ‘The Dreadnought of Peace,” and discusses in a facetious and iron- ical vein, the voyage and the various interpretations that may be placed on the visit of the peace band to Eu- rope. “In any case,” says the paper, Mr. Ford has all the requisite qualities entitling him to be received by the public and Powers of the various states of Europe. He merits special watching, for he is possessed of ex- traordinary originality of mind and always can become dangerous.” Ford Expedition Display of American Keeentricity, German View, BERLIN, via London, Dec. 7.—The German press in general treats the Ford peace mission only as a manifesta- tion of American eccentricity. Accord: ing to opinion here, the mission will have but slight. chance of exerting its efforta in Germany or other belligerent countries, in view of the fact that the passports of its members are good only for neutral countries, In view of the German knowledge that the mission comes without official inspiration or the approval of Washing- ton, it is unlikely to permit the party to enter Germany. Commong Hears Request to Bar Ford and Bryan, LONDON, Dec. 7.~A request made in the House of Commons yesterday, that an intimation be sent to Henry Ford and William Jennings Bry- an that their proposed peace mission to this country would be “irritating and unwelcome” at present, drew the re- sponse from Lord Robert Cecil, Parlia- megtary Undersecretary for Foreign Af fairs, that as the passports of the members of the peace mission only had been issued for neutral countries, the contingency contemplated by Sir Edwin did not arise, A rapid bombardment of questions came from different parts of the House inviting the Undersecretary, seeing that these people left amid a storm of ridi eule, “that he convey to them in what- wer neutral country they find them- ‘elves the intimation that they are not wanted here at any time.“ Discussion of the subject closed in laughter aroused by Will Crook, Labor member for Woolwich, who asked: “If they have the right of asylum here, can we certify them to be insane?“ Harvard student to Join Ford peace Party.

WILL BEAR SPEEDING DOCTOR BLAMES ARREST FOR BOY'S DEATH * Physician Testifies He Was Hur- rying Home for Instruments to Operate on Child. Dr. George Tracewell of @212 Easton avenue, arraigned before Police Judge Hogan today on a speeding charge, tes- tified that he believed the death of his patient, Lawrence Frick, 9 years old, of 1515 Wellston avenue, was due to the delay occasioned by his arrest at noon yesterday. The boy died at 5 o'clock this morning a* the Deaconess Hospital from an ob- struction of the stomach. Dr. Tracewell testified that he called op the boy at , the hospital yesterday morning, and decided that it was nec- essary to operate. He said the hospl- tal instruments were not suitable, in his cpinion for the operation, and that he started home to get his own instru- ments. In front of Soldan High School, on Unien boulevard, he was stopped by Patrolmen Wander and Judge, in a po- lice automobile, and was taken to the Page Boulevard Station, where a charge of speeding was entered, and he was re- leased on his own bond. The policemen said Dr. Tracewell was running 2% milea ar. hour, The physician testified that, after this delay, he went home and got his instru- ments, and returned to the hospital. He found that a swelling had arisen which, he said, made it impossible to adminis- ter an anesthetic, and hence made the operation impossible. He believed, he testified, that but for the delay, he could have performed the operation and saved the boy’s life. Wander said the physician was de- layed only 10 minutes by the arrest and the stop at the station. Dr. Trace- well said it was more than 10 minutes, though he did not fix the exact length Ot time. Judge Hogan dismissed the speeding charge, saying he would give the phy- sician the benefit of the doubt. Operation Delayed by Speeding Ar- rest; Twe Doctors Freed. Dr. Henry Gettys of 3626 Washington avenue and Dr. Llewellyn Sale of 441 Parkview place were freed of speeding charges. Both testified they were on their way to attend to professional du- ties when arrested, and Dr. Sale said an operation at the Jewish Hospital was delayed 15 minutes by a policeman’s re- fusal to take hig card and let him pro- ceed.

LONDON, Dec. 7.— There is a plague of rats along the-British and French lines in Flanders and France.

They breed and breed and launch themselves into as- saults on the cantonments, like the Ger- mans on the Teer, by battalions en masse. “They are beginning ‘to be tortured by hunger, and the shortage of food makes them capable of anything. The other morning I saw a cyclist whose tires had been half devoured by a pla- toon of rats.

Even before the Castles sprang into stardom in the musical play, “Watch Your Step,“ there were many rumors that their domestic life Was not as e- cessful as their artistic career. During the run of “Watch Your Step” at the New Amsterdam Theater reports of con- flicta between the couple were of almost nightly ocourrence and other membere/ of the company said that Mrs. Castile was jealous and that there were times when her disapproval of her husband's behavior went beyond words. After one ot these quarrels last winter behind the scenes at the theater, Mrs. Cast sud: denly left the cast of the company and her place was taken by Mae Murray, « well-known dancer.

LONDON, Dec. 7.—- Information from Berlin indicates that the German forces in the earlier movements in the ans have now been detached for the puirpose of sharing in the attack on the -British forces along the South- Macedonian front. Dispatches from Héns partly corroborate this theory as” i reported two German divisions are e0-operating with the Bulgarians near Stramitza.

The plans as described by the President in a general way were listened to with special atten- tion, particularily when referring to the proposed Continental army.

Waugh out that the German tariff system in members contend that the Federal Coun- people, as one critic put it, being more done them. just like the Mi-o-na people say it ous and unrestrained discussion of the problem of food regulation continues * the budget committee of the Reichstag. Full reports of the debate are not ap- pearing in the newspapers, but the ac- counts published Indicate that one as- pect of the discussion consists of con- troversial attempts to lay the blame for various alleged failings on the shoulders of producers, dealers or consumers, or representatives of different ministries. Both the Minister of the Interior, Clemens Delbrueck, and the Prussian Minister of Agriculture, Baron von Schorlemer, have come under fire. One radical speaker directed his crit- ictam against producers for desiring higher maximum prices. He pointed times of peace had been directed for years toward strengthening German ag- riculture for its task in war times. Ev- ery slice of bread and every pound of meat had been burdened with a tax for this purpose.. Farmers should, there- fore, be contented with small profits at the present, Regulationg Discussed, The regulations already put into force for the distribution of food products are being discussed at length. Some of the cl! delayed its action too long. A conservative member maintained that high prices were necessary in or- der to spur productive effort to the maximum and defended Minister Schor- lemer for hia efforts to maintain produc- tion at a high point. A speaker from the Center deplored efforts to sow strife between the towns and the country consumers and producers. Two Social- ists voiced the complaints of their elect- ors upon this matter. Batter Important Problem. The butter problem engaged the at- tention of most of the speakers, many concerned with the question of whether they should have butter on their bread than that they have bread on which to spread the butter. It is a fact, accord- ing to reports from all sides, that more criticism has been stirred up among the poorer classes by the recent difficulties in getting butter, oleomargarine, tard and other substitutes than by almost any other Government measure. Minister Delbrueck made a short statement, declaring that the regulation of the supply of fats was the most dir- ficult task in the field of food regula- tions. He announced that the. Govern- ment had decided to permit the sale of imported butter at a higher price than that charged for the home article. It is expected this will make it pos- sible too reserve a supply of domestic butter for the poorer classes. Herr Delbrueck said he regarded it necessary to regulate distribution of lard and other fats. Margerine made from expropriated materials will be placed at the disposal of municipal authorities for sale to the poorer classes at 35 cents a pound. German EXmbarge Causes Drop in Price of Cattle. LONDON, Dec. 7.—‘‘The German pro- hibition upon the transit of live cattle from Denmark and the Scandinavian countries to Austria, reported late last week, is now proved to have been in- spired by an organized effort to reduce prices,“ says a Reuter dispatch today from Copenhagen. “The monopoligation of the Danish market by three buyers, backed by the German Reichs Centraleinkauf, has al- ready resulted in a reduction of $2 a head in the price of live little cattle and it is believed the present elimination of conipetition and Germany’s sole pos- seasion of the field will ultimately result in the per cent reduction.” — MAKES THE STOMACH FEEL f Mi-o-na kly Stops Heartburn, — and AL Miseries of Indigestion. | It's à pleasure to sell a medicine when customers come in afterward and tell you how much good it has Druggists everywhere can tell of this experience in their sale of Mi- o-na, the well-known stomach rem- edy.

DECREASED ITEMS FEW Government Telephone and Td - egraph Monopoly in Alaska and Elsewhere Proposed. WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.—Estimates for the most elaborate program of expendi- tures ever presented to an American Congress in times of peace were submit- ted today. They propose a total outlay of $1,285,857,808,.or $170,863,614 more than was appropriated last year. The great increase is almost wholly due to the administration plans for military pre- Paredness. More than $116,000,000 of the total is for direct expenditures on the army and navy, with millions more to be used in coast defense and other for- tification work. By establishments the amounts asked were: Lecisilative 7. I ti igen i + ART 4 * a 77555 a ary ® 818.074 10.1 Naval ndian Pension Permanent appropriations The postal service estimate is deduct- ible from the total, because its receipts are turned back to the Treasury. That leaves $969,492,929 as the actual total of appropriations Congress ig asked to make, or $167,853,401 more than last year. No Estimate Reduced. Not a single establishment of the Gov- ernment asked for less than was given last year. Many requests were made for increases because of developments of the war in Europe. increases, including $142,000 for additional clerical force in the department, $25,000 d' Affaires, and $25,000 for transportation and subsistence, and $200,000 instead of President to meet unforeseen emergen- cles arising in the diplomatic and con- sular service.

The same department wants $50,000 to enforce the cotton futures act. The Department of Commerce asked for many increases for gathering infor- mation at home and abroad on com- merce, industry and manufacture. Among the items included are ¢..v,000 to promote and develop the commercial interests of the United States and $100,- 000 to be devoted to the same ends with particular reference to South and Cen- tral America. For commercia] attaches abroad’ $225,000 instead of $100,000 was asked; and $100,000 was asked in place of $60,000 to investigate tho cost of pro- duction and distribution of all articles which are or may be made the subject of tariff legislation with special refer- ence to the prices paid domestic and for- eign labor, prices of raw materials with the conditions in foreign and domestic markets affecting the American prod- uct “together with all facts that may be necessary in fixing import duties or alding officers of the governments in the administration of the customs laws.“ _— for Steamboat —4 he same department ask $50,000 to use in collecting statistics of internal commerce and $60,000 to investigate for- eign markets for agricultural, mineral and forest products. An echo of the Eastland steamship disaster is heard in a request for an increase of $55,000 for the steamboat inspection service and of $3000 for employment of inspectors to prevent overcrowding of passenger vea- sels. Labor concillators, the Labor Depart- ment says, will need $75,000 this year in place of $25,000. The Children’s Bureau asked for $17,000 more than last year. The Department of Agriculture asked for $2,500,000, the same as last year, for eradication of foot and mouth disease, $45,750 to enforce the cotton futures act, and $110,880 to enforce the insecticide act. Postmaster-General Burleson again proposes to conduct the rural free deliv- ery service for less than it has cost in previous years. His estimate for the service is put at $48,500,000, compared with $58,000,000 appropriated for the year, which ends June 3 next. The Interstate Commerce Commission asked generally for little more than last year, but wants $3,000,000 more for gaye} ical valuation work. The Federal Trade Commission, which came into being last March, asked for its first full year’s work $544,666, or about $190,000 more, most of which is to be expended in the salaries of attorneys, examiners, etc. The Interior Department wants $8,247,<{ 3 9% for the Alaska railroad, compared with $2,000,000 appropriated in 1916. account of the war, asked for increases, the Secret Service to $236,000 from $144,000 and the Bureau of Investigation to . 008 from $435,000.

Donald N Me- Millan, an Arctic explorer who went nerth in search of Crocker Land, was at. Btah, Greenland, when he wrote 4 letter just received by the American Museum of Natural History here. MacMillan said in his letter that he was awaiting the arrival of the re- lief schooner Cluett, which, it is learned. has now been imprisoned by ice at North Star Bay more than 100 miles from Dan. A letter from Knud Rasemussen which was sent from Greenland with MacMillan’s letter said that the cap- tain of Rasmussen's vessel had sent his motor boat to tan to bring out the MacMillan party, but the result is not yet known. Letter Dated April . 6 last. He wrote: “That naturally the boys are very anxious to get home and would be much disappointed if a ship failed to arrive, but do not be a bit alarmed over our safety if such should hap- pen.” The explorer wrote that all of his efforts were then directed to bring- ing back to safety W. Elmer Ekblaw, the geologist and botanist, who had not returned from a i1100-mile trip over Ellesmere land. Ekblaw started late in March and was expected to return about June 1. The MacMillan party was then engaged in placing caches of food at different points on the Greenland coast. Abandoned His Trip. ’ MacMillan was compelled to abandon his own proposed trip to King Christian land, in order to equip the Hkblaw party. “I hoped to pick up another team and get away on a trip, but that will be impossibie,” he said in his let- ter. “Within the memory of the old- est Eskimos there has never been such a year. The Eakimos have eaten their dogs as the only food availiable and burned their sledges for fuel. Have just returned from Peterravik with a skeleton teagn of 13 dogs; no meat for love or money. In trying to get my team in shape for Ek we pay as high as five gallons of oll for a single flipper of walrus; ordinarily this would buy a whole ons.“ Outlining his future plans, MacMillan wrote: > „It a ship reaches us and Ekblaw does not remain with me, I may be landed. over in Jones Sound with one Eskimo. Here I shall remain one year for ethnological work and sledge from here to the northern coast of America.“ nker Gets Fi Years. AGG OR Ok., Dec. 7. -W. P.

Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Wverybody agrees the smoke nuisance ought to be abolished, and your editorial of Nov. 80 will meet the warm approval of most of your read- ers, though they may not believe the electrifica- tion of railway tofminals a feasible means to this end. The present Genn! condition of the raflroads will not permit the expenditure of the tremen- dous sums required, and aside from the great cost, the railroads are confronted with the complex problem of operating under two systems of power Decause it is not justifiable to electrify a whole system to abate smoke at terminals, hence all trains must be changed from electric power to steam or vice versa on arrival at or departure from terminals. At the annual convention of the Werne Rallway Fuel Association held in Chicago May 15-17 last. it was freely suggested in discussing a — read by Mr. Robinson, supervisor of fuel ption of the B. & O.

The Post-Dispatch's full exposure two years ago last October of the reasons why electrical current | asserted. produced by water power at Keo- kuk reaches St. Louis burdened with costs greater than those of current produced by steam told about the absurd division of the transmission line into two unequal parts that join at Florissant. The purpose, of course, is to increase the num- ber of companies handling the current and afford excuse for the collection of corporate graft on the utilization of hydroelectric privileges granted for the purpose of benefitting the public. Just why Florissant should divide the transmis- sion line into two sections is not known.’ The line could as justifiably be divided into four or five sections with a separate charge for transmission over each. Possibly the sections were limited to two to show the moderation of the North Ameri- can Co., the corporation “higher up” and ultimate recipient of multiform descriptions of corporate graft of which St. Louisans are made the victims. One section of the transmission line brings the current to Florissant. The second that brings it from that place to the outskirts of St. Louis was called in 1913 the Mississippi River Power Dis- tributing Co. New information given the public by the Post-Dispatch shows that most of the property of this company has been transferred to another North American subsidiary operating in St. Louis and other counties, the Electric Company of Missouri. For generating the current at the $25,000,000 plant at Keokuk and transmitting it nearly 140 miles to Florissant over a line cosfing millions, a charge of $16.34 per horsepower a year is made. But for transmitting it from Florissant over a 10-mile ling to the city and passing it through a transformer—total cost of line and transformer being only $1,236,000—a charge ranging from 40 to 53 per cent of 818.34 is made. This current bought for $16.84 is sold to the Union Electric Co. for $23 per horsepower, netting a profit of $6.66; but to the United Railways, an- other of the North American Co.’s subsidiaries, precisely the same current is sold for $25, netting a profit of $8.66. The total annual receipts of the Electric Com- pany of Missouri from this source are ascertained by the Post-Dispatch to be $331,960, of which $252,- 491 is net graft after payment of all costs. This is 20.4 per cent on the investment. During the life of these contracts the people will be called on to pay enough in excess charges to reproduce the entire Keokuk plant. Victimised stockholders of the United Rail- ways and other subsidiaries have a remedy under Missouri law. The Public Service Commission should intervene to abrogate these extortionate contracts in the interest of consumers. , . Mail early. Don't make trouble. 81 9 TYPHUS IN MEXICO. Neven thousand cases of typhus in Mexico City aud vicinity, as the outcome of the war and its privations, is a situation calling for extreme care * Shop early. on the part ot American health authorities on the border, to preverit the spread of this filth disease in the United States. It is reassuring to know that American aid is being called in to stop the epidemic. American physicians and nurses elim- inated this disease {n Servia, last year, and if similar methods are followed, the Mexican plague oan be stayed. ‘ The peculiar repulsiveness of typhus is in the by body vermin, so that, in places where it ex- ists, everyone using public vehicles is liable to become infected. Its extermination depends wholly upon the thoroughness with which it is attacked on the proven theory that cleanliness of person and sur- roundings is fatal to its spread. If the authori- ties in Mexico do their full duty, the danger will soon be past. DESTROYING OCHINA’S NEW IDEALS. Did old Yuan of Pekin and Prof. F. J. Goodnow of Baltimore provide all needed safeguards to in- sure a triumphal restoration of the monarchy and ultimate apotheosis of the Manchus? If they failed to do so, difficulties may be ex- perienced. Three armed uprisings in or near Shanghal in 24 hours are attributed to opponents of the change. In one, a modern war vessel in the harbor was seized and held for some hours. Their small success in a great commercial city and treaty port does not argue for the failure of similar movements in remoter parts of the coun- try. How are the ideals of Washington and Lin- coln, formally adopted by the Yuan Government for its guidance, to be reconciled with the ideals of an adventurer of the Napoleon III stripe? To progressive Chinese minds, the republic typl- fii the new aspirations of the Chinese people in religion, education, civics, industry, science. The Yuan brand of Manchuism typifies only the Con- fuctaniam, apathy, sloth and retrogression of un- counted centuries. To advocate the reactionary change as promo- tive of greater stability was a great folly. It probably means renewed chaos. The new ideals will not be abandoned without a struggle. = = r Certainly the German soldier has earned an increase from Pris cents 4 day. invented by Gov.

It deals with questions of far-reaching effect on the country, not only in the present crisis, but in the future. Every American citizen should read the mes- sage carefully, It is worth reading. It is high in purpose, cléar in thought and lucid in state ment. National preparedness in the most com prehensive sense and from the highest standpoint of national welfare is the theme. “Efficiency and security” are the keynotes. Preparedness for military defense, never for aggression, but for the security of all those things that Americans cherish-—our liberties, our rights, our institutions, our duties, our land, our homes and our prosperity. Preparedness for industry and commerce, Transportation on sea and land are the pressing necessities of this question. While urging measures to assure an adequate merchant marine Mr. Wilson suggests an expert commission to investigate land transportation with a view to its adequate development to meet our needs. The President frankly and courageously. touches the question of disloyalty on the part of certain foreign-born elements in our citizenship who have conspired against our vital interests at such nefarious conspiracies and activities. Mr. Wilson points out the problems and sug- gests the remedies. It is for the people and their representatives in Congress to work them out. It is a time for patriotism, not partisanship. = = * Chicago smoke is to stay, it having been found that the terminal smoke is only one-third of the entire nuisance, and that complete electrification is impracticable. Alas! = = * * 8363, 800,000 FOR NATIONAL DEFENSE. The estimates of expenditure submitted to Congress for the next fiscal year call for ap- proximately $152,800,000 for the army and §$211,- 500,000 for the navy. This total for both services of $863,800,000 exceeds the recent appropriations by $124,000,000. There are two elements in Congress lying in wait to strike at such a measure of national de- fense as these figures represent. They are the element opposed to any increase at all and the element that will antagonize it as utterly Inade- manner of its contagion. The disease is spread| ate Ot the two the latter element is the more vociferous and the more dangerous. If these plans are carried through, the United States next year will be spending on army and navy more than Britain was spending for the sume service, including an enormous navy, be- fore the present war. To support these plans new taxes yielding well over $100,000,000 a year must be levied. As the element in Congress which is crying down these plans for what it would call their disgusting moderation looks to a higher tariff for most of the new revenue, we call attention to the fact that the total revenue yield of the highest tariff this country ever had was the $333,600,000 raised from the Dingley tariff in the fiscal year 1910, which would have fallen over $30,000,000 short of meeting the costs of the administration’s pre- paredness plan next year. It is going to be no easy matter to induce Con- gress to appropriate $363,000,000 for military purposes, as the people who clamor for more run the risk of depriving the country of any increase whatever in national defense. They are the strongest allies of the no-preparedness advocates. = = SS a With the United States so peaceful and pros- perous, Col. Roosevelt may be driven to offer his services to one of the Buropean Delligerents. = i al SEEING AMERICA FIRST. America saw itself first last summer. Incident- ally the Frisco fair made a surplus. Sadder news comes from London: “A serious situation con- fronts the Buropean hotels as a result of the loss of American patronage. The fact that three great London ‘hotels have recently failed to pay divi- dends is proof of this. Our big estab- lishments lose their greatest source of revenue when American patronage is diminished.” 80 runs the tale of woe. “Leaner months are ex- pected, and the one bright ray of sunshine is the belief that when the war ends the pent-up tide of Americans will swamp Europe.” The chances are that America, having had a glimpse of itself, will be tempted to admire itself some more. Travel in the West fs likely to mul- tiply. A new country is opened up to American curtosity. The West is being made more quickly accessible each year. The fashion and trend of Western travel are not likely to be overcome by European attractions even when peace arrives. There will be a rush of old travelers to see the new-old ruins of battered Europe, but battlefields ‘make poor picnic grounds, and the memory of dangers coupled with the threat of excessive high rates will keep many American tra traveling in America. | When you consider that a single American ex- press company did an annual business of a bun- —— wonkee aD home and abroad.

There is not an objection to high ex- Plosive shells which call for walls thick- er than is necessary for strength, but there is danger of cast-iron shells de- veloping cracks during manufacture, and there would be a risk of such shells bursting in the gun.

IN STRIKE PLOTS Franz von Rintelen Spent Thou- sands, but Labor Men Revealed His Plans, U. S. Attorney Says. HAD $500,000 IN ONE BANK Gompers May Be Witness in In- quiry Into Activities of Na- / tional Peace Council. NEW YORK, Dec. 7.—United States Attorney Snowden Marshall declared to- day that Mranz von Rintelen, the Ger- man agent who is accused of coming to this country to incite strikers in mu- nition factories, armed with a large cor - ruption. fund, was ‘‘double-crossed” by the labor men he tried to corrupt and. Gespite the expenditure of several hun- dred thousand dollars, failed to accom- pliah his mission in ** effective man- ner. Marshall gave the nai credit for Rintelen’s failure to the stand taken by high officials in labor organisations. “Rintelen only succeeded in corrupt- ing some subordinates,’’ Marshall said, “and he was beautifully double-crossed. The real labor leaders took prompt steps to check his activities. Save for a few small strikes, none of his efforts Was successful, and all the strikes he did instigate were quickly killed by the good men at the head of the unions. “I am not prepared to state just how much money Rintelen expended, but it ran into hundreds ot thousands of dol- lars. He had $600,000 to his credit in one bank.” Lamar Not te Be Witness. Marshall refused to tomment on David Lamar's activities in the scheme beyond saying emphatically that he would not be called as a witness before the grand jury, a proceeding which might give him immunity from. prosecution. If sufficient evidence is obtained it is expected indictments will be sought against the labor men who accepted Rintelen’s money. Marshall stated that these men could be prosecuted under the Sherman law, on the ground that they had conspired to restrain the trade of the United States in munittons. - Rintelen is at present. held a prisoner by the British authorities in the Tower of London. No attempt will be made to extradite him, as Marshall says his offense is not extraditablie.

If I could have my way, I would not enter Berlin at all, but would wear civilian clothing and leave the train at Kott- bus. 1 do not like to be feted. Cin- cinnatus, who returned to the plow, is a beautiful figure. However, my entry into Berlin will not come so quickly. “At present the enemy won't make peace. They are not yet weakened enough. We must therefore keep it up further.” Is Defiant to France. Field Marshal von Hindenburg crit- icised the French demands, particularly that relating to Alsace-Lorraine. „It they want it.“ he said, should come and get it.” ‘The British,“ he continued, “appear also to have decided to continue the war. It is true that reports come from India that ought to dampen the British lust for war somewhat, but one must wait and see whether these reports are corroborated. Great Britain has her Achilles tendon; I am not referring alone to India. “In Russia, also, the Emperor and Government plainly desire the continua- tion of the war. The most remarkable thing is that all these nations do not see that they are sacrificing themselves for Great Britain. It does not look like peace, and so Germany cannot sheathé her sword.“ The Field Marshal declared that every German would rejoice if an end were “they TUESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 7, 1915. — RS ii LDR.

AN 0 STOCKS REFLECT SELLING AS THE MARKET CLOSES a Traders Differ as to Ultimate Influence of President’s Message. — — PR 1 ost-Dispate 3 YORK, Dec. 7.—The Evening today in its copyrighted financial review ‘Ostensibly today’s stock market was ly concerned with the President’s vet nl to Congress. This seemed to be taken in good part by Wall street, though the particular response of the various groups of stocks was not alto- gether logical. The Motor Car shares nearly al gested Federal tax shares of the on gasoline, and steel companies were sim- larly strong, notwithstanding the pro- sal of a 2c-per-ton tax on fron and abricated steel. But the executive pro- posals were hardly accepted as the last word in these matters, and the market. taken as a whole, appeared to be in a cheerful mood, on genera! principles. It was again impossible to discover any show of interest in the controversy over the German embassy’s two 1 4 Market News Is Sea Outside of the political field, there Was not much news to influence the market. Foreign exchange rates were enerally firmer, on a quiet market. ilway earnings reported today were again extremely large; the November Cc receipts of lines, not only in the est but in the South, were notable, though they did not break all records month. “The Government's statement of our foreign trade of last week showed the second largest weekly exports in our history, and an excess of exports sur- passed only by the third week in October and the third week of November. This is in spite of the fact that imports were the largest of any week since April. “Prices held well at the higher level reached in the opening hours, until the closing hour of business, when an ir- regular decline occurred, clearly under- Selling by professional operators. This movement might have been ascribed to the fact that the points in the Presi- dent's message, which Wall street liked, had been ‘discounted’ during the few . business days; or today’s ear- ler response of the industrial shares was unreasonable; or that the railway recommendations were not as plain as had been hoped for, or only that tradi- tion requires an uncertain market in the week when Congress reopens. However this may have been, the market as a whole underwent a fairly smart reaction and closed with most of the earlier ad- ances lost. “The President's recommendations to Congress regarding a commission of in- quiry into the railway situation is much in line with Wall street's expectations. That the _ se is favorable: to the railways, e language of the message leaves no doubt. Effective means for bettering the conditions under which the railways are operated is its general proposal. It is easy enough to imagine a report of great value by a competent body of commissioners on the railway problem as a whole and in its specific details. “It could certainly be of service in making plain the great embarrassment caused by the 2 and conflict, ing rate provisions of the Federal Gov- ernment and of the individual states. Definite suggestions, arising from such an inquiry, would tn no respect Invade the Interstate Commerce Commission's particular field of authority. ‘he Federal Investigation. “Investigation of questions such as Federal supervision of issuance of new securities and of reorganization after a receivership, could hardly be avoided, in view of such recent incidents as the Rock Island matter. But recommenda- tions in thes directions would intrude into no one else’s pecullar province. “To Wall street and the investing com- munity at large, the main impression will undoubtedly be produced by the spirit in which the commission is pro- ogee How far the rate question could tackled anew is not so easy to say. A positive report, for example, that interstate rates are too low, would cer- tainly seem to involve an odd sort of conflict of authority between the com- missioners and the existi Interstate Commission. tion could be fa new commission, in the President's words, were to look at the whole problem of co-ordination and ef- ficiency in the full light of a fresh as- — of circumstances and opin- DETAILED REPORT OF DAY'S 1 IN WALL STREET rde buying move- — in 21 tate 2488 mod ugh e are was = ; = eye o yoar, and Runde of 1 Kicohot * riand, gen Steel . — preferred.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.—Winter wheat was in good condition as a result of weather conditions dur- ing November, which the Weather Bureau in its monthly review to- day says rarely have been so fa- vorable for all agricultural inter- ests for an entire month. Over the reat corn-growing states plowing for next season’s crop was possi- ble throughout nearly the entire month, and good progress was re- ported. Livestock was reported in good condition to enter winter in all districts except the far South- west, where drouth has prevailed for some time, and in portions of the Northwest, where winter feed is, short. Heavy realizing sales to secure prof- its caused an irregular market in wheat at the opening of local trading * Later, when offerings had been a sorbed, prices made new high records by advancing lc over yesterday's clos- ing. Commission house bu - ee was less active than yesterday, and many wel- posted traders expressed the opinion that. temporarily the market vanced far enough. In the final hour the market lost all of its early gain and dropped nearly 2c unijer yester- day’s finals, The closing was irregu- lar and near the low level of the Gay. Corn closed steady, but lost its early advance. Oats fin shed irregular. Liverpool again fottowed the Amer!- can advance of yesterday and prices there were id to 2%d higher. Broom- hall’s Liverpool review also was bull- ish. It said: “Strong American cables yesterday and large absorption here, with pros- pects of difficulty in securing later pur- chases, caused a strong undertone to the market today.
