Pershing’s men are ready for any emergency. They are coun- tering the enemy préparations blow for blow, keeping up a harassing artillery, rifle and machine gun fire and are actively patrolling. The spirit of the Americans is ex- bellent. They are éager to fight and a typical expression is: “Let Fritz start something. He’ll get all that is coming to him.’’ A young French captain who trained 'the men now in the Picardy lines told the Associated Press today the troops in that section came re- cently from Flanders. Along the lines néar Luneville the American patrols have been active and have penetrated the enemy lines once more. They found that. the enemy had not reoccupied raided portions of their positions and that the town of Aazervillers, with the ex- ception of one stone house, had been completely demolished by the Amer- ican artillery fire.

This was done, with the result that a committee, headed by H. Snowden Marshall, for- mer U. §S. District Attorney for the Eastern District of New York and no member of which had been interested in aviation, was directed by the President to ascertain what was wrong. The Marshall report has not been made public, but, following fits submfssion, the President re- organized the aviation program, took it out of the hands of the Aircraft Board and appointed John D. Ryan, a New York cop- per magnate, as sole director of aircraft work. A few days before this action, the Senate Military Affairs Com- mittee, by a vote of 8 to 6, de- cided that the aircraft program had been badly botched, that only 266 Liberty motors, out of completed and that the country had been misled by overopti- mistic and unwarranted assur- ancés by officials as to the prog- ress in aviation we were making. The report added, however, that many of the errors had finally been corrected and that quan- tity production would soon be under way. But the President was urged to establish one-man control. The minority submit- ted an opposition report, in which it was declared that the work ‘on the program had been as good as could be expected and that the development of the Liberty motor had been worth all the delay that was traceable to it. Both England and France had ordered large numbers of the motor, the report said. In the course of the Senate debate on these reports, Sen- ators Hitchcock and Thomas de- clared that Borglum “was not entirely a distinterested witness, as he is reported to have con- nections with an aeronautical association which is a potential aircraft manufacturer.” the chairman of the aircraft board, correction made, and they are re- building the engines on these lines at this moment, but I had sinned in daring to criticise, and, as some of your most important and prominent associates in our Government have said, Borglum ‘blundered in telling the truth.’ ‘T have said the aero, department is full of profiteering; that hundreds of millions have gone; that factories have been created where there were no factories necessary, and contracts to the extent of $50,000,000 given to men who had neither rhyme nor rea- son for the remotest connection with the emergency of aeroplane produc- tion, but who had the pull of Deeds and who are still floundering in their ignorance and incompetency, unable and incapable of fulfilling their con- tracts, still drawing under the cost- plus system upon the treasury of the nation. I have said that aeronautic men and ability of the nation have been snubbed and ignored, unem- ployed, and that factories or nucleus of factories that could have been de- veloped into producing institutions, who knew the art of aeroplane build- ing, are even at this writing without the slightest consideration by the group who dealt out the colossal funds for their purpose. “T have said the Liberty motors should never have been undertaken until other available motors had been put in production sufficient for an emergency fleet of aeroplanes built that our army could have used when it was ready, and I have said thdt this was not done because the group who were interested in the production of the Liberty motor were interested in the establishing and controlling the monopoly of that en- gine for aeronautic work and were not interested, at least never have shown interest, that protected the troops they were charged to pro- } tect. I have also said that there has been gross profiteer nail in the meth- ee & 4 these criticisms has been admitted byods of contracts and that millions could be saved if the Government would act quickly, even by the con- sent of the manufacturers them- selves. j ‘Still an Experiment.” “T have pointed out that, although the engine was still an experiment, there were no planes, there can be no planes and there will be no planes until an engine or the engtme is done and a perfect and completed thing, so the country could bélieve that when the Liberty motor reached its production we would have thousands of planes. This is another gross fal- lacy; wé cannot really begin the con- struction of acroplanes until ouf en- ine and its working horsepower has een established. In other words, except for the acquired material ex- perimentation carried on under va- rfous producers and paid for by the cost plus contract system, enjoyed by manufacturers who are agreeable ard acceptable to the ring, we have accomplished nothing in our aero- nautic program. “Charges could not be more se- rious. Charges more grievous could not be made against a department or a group of men. Seven or eight in- vestigations have been made besides my own, and there ts no single defi- nite denial of anything I charge. Why is it then that this offends? Why is it that placing the truth be- fore the authorities falls for months to meet with response and finally with brusque rebuke, and why, after the work is done and delivered oa month or more, I should receive a letter from you refuting the author- ity which alone brought me to Wash- ington and under which I had worked so long? — “Little can I add to what I have said, and there is little that I wish to add. I am now certain my serv- ices have at least compelled some kind of an investigation and I have at least informed the country of its needs, and the camouflage del ately planned by a group of me to, Cal.: Cariton 8.

The exact status of Borglum as an investigator, which, until now. has been more or less of a mystery to the public, is cleared up by the cor- respondent given out at the White House. It develops that, after the sculptor had written to Secretary Tumulty, last November, in regard to alleged defects in the aviation or- ganization and the desirability of having certain experts called in, the Fresident asked him to present his ideals. Later, on Jan. 2, the President wrote a letter to Borglum, asking him to come to Washington and lay the matter before the Secretary of War, and, with the aid of a member o* the Secretary’s personal staff, dis- cover the facts by personal investi gation. - Borglum did this and, on Feb. I, the President sent a prelimimary re- port from him to Secretary Baker, with this note: “Here is Mr. Borglum’s prelimin- ary report. Is there not some one entirely disconnected from aeronau- tics and from those who are promi- nent in carrying out the airplane program whom you can ask to go over this thing with an unbiased mind and give us his naive impres sions of it? There may be something worthy of our consideration and sug- gestions worthy to be adopted.” March 29, after an exchange of telegrams with Borglum, the Presi- dent wrote that he had placed the material the latter had furnished at the disposal of gentlemen to whom he had committed the task of mak- ing a systematic inquiry into the whole aviation situation. These gen- tlemen were the special committee headed by H. Snowden Marshall, of New York, whose preliminary re- port preceded the recent re-organi- gation of the army aviation service and the appointment of John D. Ryan as director general. Apparently the sculptor resented - not being allowed to carry out the A ' was getting beaten. while the farmer might not be cheat- Ordinance Corrected. The Judge took the position that ing anybody, yet by using the short bushels he aided others in doing so, because the same boxes were handed to retailers and probably to consum- ers. He said he would grant the writ because of the invalidity of Weeke’s destruction of the boxes, if it were not that the farmers are also committing inequity by not comply- ing with the State or Federal law. . The court declared that Weeke had no right to destroy boxes. Whilé he was to be commended for protecting the public against false weights and measures, there was no law or prece- dent authorozing him to take the law into his own hands. Since the suit was brought, the ordinance has been corrected to con- form to the Federal law. inquiry himself. In response to a complaint that he had not been supplied with suitable expert assist- ance, the President, on April 15, in- formed him that he feared he had been under a sérious misapprehen sion as to his status. “T never at any time constituted you as an Official investigator,” wrote the President. “I merely gave you the right to look into the matter of your own motion, and I am sure the letter which the Secretary of War provided you with he gave you with the same purpose and idea.” The President closed by expressing the hope that Borglum would feel it his duty to turn over to the offi- cial investigators any information in his possession. It has been reported since that the sculptor refused to deal with the Marshall committee. Borglum had a conference yester- day with members of the Senate Military Committee and gave a list of witnesses he desired summoned if the committee re-opens its irnvesti- gation of his disclosures. He reiter- ated his assertions that criminal liability could be established. Exactly what the Borglum charges are never has been revealed publicly though they have been broadly hint- ed at and freely discussed in the cloak rooms. CALL FOR 4060 SPECIALLY QUALIFIED DRAFT REGISTRANTS Requisition on All but Three States for Men to Go to Camp on May 20. WASHINGTON, May 7 (By A. P.). Fen. requisition on all states except Arizona, Delaware and Vermont for 4060 specially qualified draft reg- istrants to go to camp May 20 was sent out today by Provost Marshal- General Crowder. ’ To Relieve Gas in the Stomach which disturbs your sleep, just try one 50c bottle of Rax-Fos With Pep- sin. A Liquid Digestive Laxative for vestigation and said information should be had regarding expenditure of $640,000,000 on the aviation pro- gram for such results “as described by the Senator.’ Senator. Thomas of Colorado, Democrat, said he under- stood that $200,000,000 had been “actually expended that the rest is represented by contracts which, when completed, will absorb the re- mainder.” Senator Walsh asked whether the sending of the 1500 aviators to France for training “was a wild, heedless and thoughtless act” of Gen. Squier, or a failure because of wrong assurances given him. “There is no question regarding Gen. Squier, I think,’ replied Sena- tor Chamberlain. “I think he hon- estly believed that the planes would be there.”’ “Then there was no training of the men because the planes were not there?’’ demanded Senator Walsh. “What Became of the Money?” “The planes were not forthcom- ing, either from this country or from France,” respanded Senator Chamberlain. “This Sole business has been camouflaged and misrepre- sented to the American public.”’ It has only been recently that planes have been supplied in ade- quate quantities for training pur- poses, he added. In response to another question the Senator said the original air- craft program provided for some- thing like from 2500 to 3000 fighting planes in France by July 1. Investigation shows, Senator Mcec- Cumber of North Dakota, Republi- can, declared, that such planes can be produced at a “big profit’ for $3000 apiec®. “But had they cost $10,000 each, we ought to have had 100,000 planes,” McCumber declared. “I think, in view of the fact we have spent nearly $1,000,000,000 and have hot got any, we ought to find out what became of the money.’’ Senator Reed of Missouri, Démo- crat, declared Senator McCumber's estimate of the average cost was too low, declaring both the British and French Governments have been com- pelled to pay largely in excess of that amount, one particular style machine costing Great Britain $4709 apiece. “I don’t doubt there has been blundering of the most colos- sal character,” Senator Reed added. “It has been under the supervision of Mr. Coffin that this failure has come, and because Mr. Coffin thought he could standardize air- plane engines so they would fit any machine on earth.” Production of airplanes for $3000 apiece, Senator Reed declared, “was a physical impossibility.” The Liberty motor, he added, was only adaptable to two or three planes. McCumber Stands on Figures. Senator McCumber insisted his es- timates were correct, explaining they were based on the production of a standardized machine. Senator Smoot of Utah, Republic- an, declared that when the $640,- 000,000 appropriation was asked for: it was said by aviation officials to be “ample” to build 22,000 airplanes. Resuming his announcement, Sen- Indigestion or ola Pleasant to take.—Adv. ator Chamberlain declared that not only woul daviation be investigated England -and France had been “merely nominal because we have not been able to supply ourselves.” , ‘No Liberty motors now are in op- eration abroad,” the Nebfaska Sen- ator added. Senator Brandegee asked to whom Attorney-General Gregory would make his report. “To Congress?” he demanded. “Lumber Supply Endangered.” “No, to the President, who already has two reports and the Lord only knows if he would make this report public if there fs anything bad in it.” “The war,” the Connecticut Sena- tor declared, ‘can’t be won with pri- vacy, secrecy aknd mystery. If there is any virtue in co-ordination, let's co-ordinate. This war is not going to be won by Col. House or by any favorite of the President.” “We can’t wm this war by talking about woman suffrage and prohibi- tion,” he continued. “We can’t win the war by sitting around at pink teas and talking about putting pink chemise on the men and knee breeches on the women. Let's get down to brass tacks. Let’s find out the facts. Let’s investigate these ir- regularittesi n the nonpartisan way and report to the public.” Senator Poindexter of Washington, Republican, quoting from official re- ports, said the aviation program up to July 1 presents an aggregate of $1,145,950,000, including appropria- tions made and now pending. Not only has the aircraft board wasted money tn securing spruce on the Pacific Coast for airplanes, Sen- ator Jones of Washington, Repub- lican, declared, but it has “very se- riously endangered” the spruce sup- ply by the lumber operations of in- experienced men. Baker Sees House Committee. While the Senate was discussing the aircraft situation, Secretary Baker and other War Department officiis were urging before the House Military Committee a new $1,000,- 000 aircraft appropriation. Secretary Baker declared facts and figures regarding aircraft plans should not be made public. He said the committee was entitled to the details, but he was opposed to pre- senting them publicly. Despite sug- gestions by several members of the committee, he said nothing should be given out by the committee. He said criticisms of the air craft plans were inspired by pro-German influence and that details of the Government's plans should be kept secret on the ground of military necessity. Plans for the Military Committee’s further investigation have not been fully formulated and will be out- lined at an early meeting. Members said today it was probable the in- quiry would be behind closed doors, but with a public report to be made later. Attorney-General Gregory started today to outline plans for the inves- tigation. He called into conference G. Carroll Todd, his assistant, and Solicitor-General Davis, and the manded a military court of into the entire matter, © — The White House last nighty i nouncing that President Wil instructed the Department of J to make an investigation, did ne close the details of the President's der, and the scope of.the inquify be undertaken has not been ed, It did make public, however, tele grams and betters exchanged betes the President and Gutzon Bo the sculptor, to whom is attrib the responsibility for statements ¢ corruption in expenditures of fi andg pro-German intrigue had ili dered airplane production. — ated Upon learning of the publicatic of the letters, Borglum gave out & open letter to the President ating his charges and expr 7 o~ hope that the “camouflage dél per-: ately planned by a group of: menwené trusted with a great arm of the niiih > tary machine has come to an end?

DETROIT, Mich., May 7.—Since the United States: declared war, Michigan has turned out more than $1,000,000,000 worth of war prod- ucts and raw materials. Michigan industries now are working on war orders which total hundreds of mil- lions of dollars. lit is esttmated that Michigan-made products valued at several hundred thousand dollars are transported to the seaboard every week by Michigan-made automo- biles. All of this work has been done thus far without serious labor dislo- cation. The amount of damage wrought by enemy plotters has been comparatively small. Naturally there has been considerable attention paid to the “Michigan system” for pro- tecting its war resources, and much of the credif has been ygiven to a pial, well-drilled body of men—the State police. This force, popularly called the Michigan State constabulary, was or- NAMES OF 169 DRAFTED MEN FROM 9 WARDS racks Sunday in Quota of 555, * The names of 169 drafted men who will be sent to Jeffersun Barracks next Sunday as part of the city’s quota of 555 to be mobilized that day, were announced today by nine vard boards.

N connection with the na- tional war bond campaign, Baron Rhondda, the Food Con- troller, who, with Lady Mack- worth, his daughter. was aboard the Lusitania when she was tor- -pedoed three years ago today, * has sent the following message to the National War Savings Committee: ‘Today is the third anniver- sary of the sinking of the Lusi- tania. Many events and many emotions have come upon us since then. One is memory laden with incidents that have stirred the surprise and anger of the civilized world. “It still will keep in remem- brance the tragedy of the Lusi- tania, a tragedy enacted by an Emperor and a people who ‘Let Us Not Relax Efforts, Baron Rhondda’s Message on Lusitania Anniversary come as the Herod of the twen- tieth century, who caused Rachel te weep for her children. “Worse even than. the sink- ing of the vessel was the sinister way in which it was planned and the shouts of exultation that afterwards swept through Ger- many. A medal was struck—a medal in commemoration of a crime. To rejoice in doing evil is surely the depth of degrada- tion. “The sinking of the Lusitania made the world see plainly the inherent criminality of its foe. On the brow of poor Russia is the mark of this beast. You will recall your first emotions on the news of the sinking of the Lusi- tania. Germany has not changed since.

It will remain in St. Louis four days. This tank: 4s not a make-believe affair, like the battleship and de- stroyer that have been hauled about the city on trolley trucks in the last few weeks. It is a rea) tank, with a record of hard fighting at Loos, Arras, and Vimy Ridge. Almost as interesting as the tank itself will be its crew of nine British veterans, experienced tank warriors, who are’ demonstrating the tank in this céun- try under assignment from the Brit- ish War Office. The primary purpose of the Brit- annia’s visit here is to aid in the British-Canadian recruiting cam- paign. But while it is here, it wilii be used in local patriotic activities. ‘Male’ and “Female” Tanks. ¢ Sergt. A. G. Blunt, one of the members of the Britannia’s crew, and one of the first British soldiers to cross the German lines in tank warfare’ on the Somme in 1916, is here making advance arrangements for the Britannia’s visit. He speaks of the Britannia as “she,” explain- ing that there are ‘‘male” and “fe- ‘male’’ tanks, and that the Britannia is of the latter type. The males” are larger, and carry three-inch rapid- fire guns. The “females” are not more beautiful or gentle, but are smalier, and carry only Lewis ma- chine guns. Blunt, whose home is in Birming- ham, England, is one of the “Old Contemptibles,’’ as the British fond- ly term their veterans of the early battles of*the war, whom the Kaiser called a ‘‘contemptible little army.” He saw service also in the battles of Ypres, Neuve Chapelle and =the Aisné,- before being transferred to the tank service in 1916. He was wounded at Loos, while in a tank— for tank fighters are not so immune from danger as some persons sup- pose. “My first trip out was made in the Britannia,” he said. “It was on the Somme, on Sept. 15, 1916, after we had had a long period of training to accustom us to the noise and the jolting. We bumped and slid into and out of shell holes and ditches fer what seemed an hour, before we hit the German first line. There the fun began. With our six machine guns working steadily, we cleaned ~~ SERGT. A. G. BLUNT. mS the Germans out, sending them scur- rying for cover in all directions. “We got to the German third line trench on that trip, and none of us was hurt. Machine-gun . bullets struck like hail on the outside, but we could hardly hear them for the noise of our machinery.” Wounded in Chest. ‘Later, Blunt said, he was trans- ferred to a ‘“‘male” tank, and at Loos a machine gun bullet, entering the tank’s side through a slit, lodged in his chest. In the same action, he said, six of the Britannia’s crew were killed by a flanking machine gun and artillery fire. He was later ‘transferred back to the Britannia. Capt. Richard Haigh, who com- mands the touring tank, has been in three tank fights, two at Arras and one at Ypres. He has been wounded twice. His men, beside Sergt. Blunt, are Gunner Alderman, a veteran of the Marne, the Dardanelles and the Somme battle; Gunner. Donaldson, who won the Military Medal in the course of two years’ service, and who was never injured until an accident occurred to the tank during a dem- ~ ollie onstration in Camp Dix, N. J.; Serst. Burnside, three. years in the war; Corp. Jagger, three years in the war and once wounded; Gunner Bailye, a three-year fighter; Gunner Saville, . with the Military Medal, and three times wounded, and Lance Corporal Brumham, fighting ever since the re- treat from Mons, and wounded once. Thursday afternoon's parade will start at the city hall, and the tank will proceed north on Twelfth street to Washington avenue, east to Fourth street, south to Market, west to Broadway and north to Olive. On later days, some demonstrations of the tank’s stunts in crossing trench fighting and demolition ef barbed wire and other obstacles, will be giv- en tn Forest Park. FOLK URGES GREGORY TO SUE TERMINAL FOR CONTEMPT Railroad Association Alleged to Have Violated Decree in Prosecution Under Sherman Law. United States Attorney-General Gregory yesterday was requested by Joseph W. Folk, counsel for the Chamber of Commerce, to institute proceedings to have the Terminal Railroad Association punished for contempt in the Federal courts for alleged violation of the decree hand- ed down in the Government’s prose- cution of the Terminal under the Sherman law. e Folk, in a letter to the Attorney- : General, states the decree prohibited the Terminal from acting as an in- dependent railroad, special or independent rate and from acting other than as the agent of connecting lines. The Terminal,, in its answer to the Chamber of Commerce suit be- fore the Interstate Commerce Com- mission, alleged itself to be an in- dependent line, and attempted to justify its charge of 20 cents a ton on coal on the theory that it per- formed a special service. é' Folk also said in his letter that the eastern roads compel the western roads to pay the terminal charges on all through traffic, forcing them to accept westbound freight on the east side of the river, and to deliver eastbound freight on the east side: The contempt proceeding which Folk is urging the Attorney-General to institute is separate from the ar- bitrary hearing before the Interstate Commerce Commission, which is set for hearing June 3.

BERNE, Switzerland, May 7 (By A. P.).—Labor and Socialist organi- zations in Austria threaten revolt against Government action suspend- ing Parliament. Swiss newspapers print a telegram from Vienna quot- ing the Sozial Denckratische Korre- spondenze to the effect that a com- mittee of the Socialist party and a committee of the German Socialist deputies’ club have decided to issue a manifesto to the working class in regard to the Government action in which the following declaration will be made: “If absolution is re-established out of regard for’ pan-Germanism, which is' prolonging the war, the working classes will. be. forged to fight for their rights.’’ - The manifesto concludes by ex- horting the workers to hold them- selves ready to fight if necessary. The Socialist Arbeiten Zeitung of Vienna describes as childish and criminal the Government’s idea that it can soothe the passions of the mob and solve a crisis by simply proroug- ing Parliament. It warns Premier von Seydler and those behind him that they are on the brink of a preci- Your Want Ad, in the Post-Dis- patch will find a tenant for that fur- nished room who will appreciate it. WOMEN NO LONGER NEED HIRE GUIDES IN YELLOWSTONE PARK iniaiatlicesooniidest Made From Wash- ington to Springfield Woman, Visiting Here. Women can hixe tnrough Yellow- stone Park this summer without hiring professional gufdea This an- nouncement was made recently by the Director of National Parks, in Washington, to Mrs. Ada F. C mers of Springfield, Mo., who reason, instituted a movement to make the national parks more avail- able for public use, by reducing the expenses of visitors. She is ing Mrs. Lottie Johnston of 6087 Cates avenue. Mrs. Chalmers believes this nouncement will be of especial inter- est to school teachers, college wom- en and married women who, because of the war, will not be accompanied by their husbands on their vacation trips this year. She believes partie of women on foot can spend 25 days in Yellowstone Park at an ex- pense not greater than $40 each. This does not include railroad fare or subsistence on the way to and from the park and it also does not include souvenirs and photographic ex- penses. The women will have to walk about seven miles a day to complete the circuit of the park in the allotted time. She plans to or- ganize such a party for a trip to the park in August. visit an-| WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY}: IN FRANCE, May 6 (By A. P.)-——. Lieut.

GARLAND 409-11-13 Broadway Both Ends ( Producer ° and Consumer.) Against The Middle (The Packer) The consumer wants to pay a low price for meat. The farmer wants to get a high price for cattle. The packer stands between these conflicting demands, and finds it impossible to completely satisfy both. The packer has nocontrol over the prices of live stock or meat, and the most that can be expected of him is that he keep the difference between the two as low as possible. He does this successfully by converting animals into meat and distributing the meat at a minimum of expense, and at a profit too small to be noticeable in the farmer’s returns for live stock or in the meat bill of the consumer. Swift & Company’s 1917 transactions in Cattle were as follows: Average Per Head Sold meat to Retailer for . $68.97 Sold By-products for : ee Total Receipts cee 4 ee Paid to Cattle Raiser ... . 84.45 Balance (not paid to Cattle Raiser) $ 8.61 Paid for labor and expenses at Packing House, Freight on Meat, and Cost of operating Branch distributing houses ..... « 7.32 Remaining in Packers’ hands as returns on investment ... . $1.29 The net profit was $1.29 per head, or about one-fourth of a cent per pound of beef. By what other method can the difference be- tween cattle prices and beef prices be made smaller, and how can the conflicting demands of producer and consumer be better satisfied ? 1918 Year Book of interesting and instructive facts sent on request.

The cat’s out of the bag in the airplane scan~ dal. The publication of Gutzon Borglum’s letter making sweeping charges of fraud, graft and camouflage brings the scandalous rumors to a head and forces a thorough inquiry. Mr. Borglum’s charges are so sweeping as to the extent of graft and deception and as to ef- forts to block his investigation and they are so utterly unsupported by definite evidence that judgment must be withheld until a searching inquiry brings out the facts. His statement that hundreds of millions have been squandered is so $200,000,000 have been expended that the judi- cious public will await the truth without perju- dice. The principals concerned in the charges—How- ard Coffin, former head of the Aircraft Produc- tion Board; Gen. Squier, chief of the Signal Corps —have demanded rigid investigation. Gen. Squier asks for a courtmartial. The President has instructed the Department of Justice to act and the Borglum charges have been turned over to. the Aircraft Investigating Commission ap- pointed by the President. Not only are Mr. Coffin, Gen. Squier and others at the head of special functions in aircraft prepa- rations interested in these charges, but Secretary of War Baker has made statements concerning progress in aircraft work which are seriously affectéd by the Borglum statement. The whole department is involved in the accusations of ob- inconsistent with recent statements that only} }them the values of safe investment when peace comes. The general showing is one that. evi- dences strikingly the unshakable confidence of the country in the ultimate outcome and the wise | direction of finance and banking under Govern- ment supervision. ’ THE REPUBLIC AND DR. WEINSBERG. The Post-Dispatch prints today in “The Mirror of Public Opinion” column an editorial from to- day’s Republic on Senator Sherman ‘and the Post- Dispatch interview with Dr. Weinsberg. It may be, as the Republic says, that our call- ing attention to the “ isapprehension” under which Senator Sherman spoke was unnecessary. Our own readers, we are certain, understand our position. And we are equally certain that the Republic, like ourselves, under the same circum- stances would have been loath to lét a charge of disloyalty and sedition, made as part of the record on the floor of the Senate, go unanswered. In any event, we welcome and appreciate our contemporary’s expression. == ™ — a ORGANIZE FOR ANNEXATIQN. City and suburban leaders in the plan to extend the St. Louis municipal limits are going about it the right way in calling for May 27 a meeting of the Mayors and other officials of nearby towns to consider the advantages of a merger of terri- tory.

One is almost tempted to write a per- sonal letter to “Loyalty” in order to quiet her mind and answer:-her questions as to who are the society women and girls, how many of them there are in St. Louis, . who is eligible to “join,” where they meet, and allsthe rest of the queries that she rather excitedly flings into her recent open letter in ‘Letters From the People.’ Practically all of them are answered by defining what a society girl or woman is, or rather, by saying what she is not; when this is done, the other questions of the catechism will not, I think, need to be asked or answered. A society woman or gir] is one who is not a business woman or girl. Now I hope that no one will be so hopelessly behind the time asito fly up just here and say that I am insinuating that ‘a person in trade cannot be considered as being in society.” As we well know, there are so- ciety women who are good business women, powand business women whose position in i society would not be questioned did they © @are to ertter it actively. What I am trying e to arrive at is to tell “Loyalty” what place — “the society woman holds in the present ' - gcheme of the world and its war; to per- suade my questioning sister that the society woman is a valuable asset to all of us, and a@ democratic one. Let us go back to the assertion that the it ‘Pin 2 = = i i A THE WHITE HOUSE SHROPSHIRES. President Wilson’s purchase of 12 Shropshire sheep and six Shropshire lambs for service in keeping the grass cropped short on the White House lawn is interesting. The suggestion to the country contained in the purchase, however, might have been more practical, if the news item had been amplified to set forth the price he paid for the high-bred animals. Householders in St. | Louis and vicinity who thought of the same plan earlier in the season found that escape from the advan@ng cost of lawn mowers and scarcity of help to run them was more difficult than they supposed. Farmer friends were willing to part with one or more of their flock, but the fortunate precaution of inquiring the price disclosed that a sheep,now costs almost as much as a serviceable mule would cost a few years ago. Reflecting on the dimensions of the average- | sized city and suburban lawn, the householders modified their program. “Why a sheep, any- way?’ they said. “A hungry little lamb ought to keep down all the grass we've got, and, besides, will be more ornamental.” But when they called up the stockyards to negotiate, they learned that the price of a lamb of ordinary pedigree is almost the equivalent of the price of a small cow in ae whole »du the before-the-war quotations.

At least so the Federal Food Ad- ministration tells us, and it is their business to know. Of course, the eating of one extra potato by one person will not win the. war. But each of this vast war’s many ramifications isa big thing in itself. An important feature of the food situa- tion today is our 90,000,000-bushel. potato surplus. To Americans who want to do the right thing at the right time is now given a great opportunity— provided they grasp this opportunity en masse. It is not for each of us to be in the trenches.

In our “feather- bed” and “roof-over-our-head” situation, thou- sands of miles from the strenuous strife, it is comparatively not much that is asked of us when the Food Administration in ita effort to strengthen the blow at autocracy says “eat an- other potato.” Let’s eat it without grumbling. And then let’s eat another to show that our heart as well as our stomach is in the right place. And above all, let the potatoes we eat take the place of food that can be sent across the water.

Among these circumstances was the absorption of a vast amount of capital in the Second Liberty Loan. Another was the disaster to the allied cause. resulting from the great drive in. Northern Italy, with its loss in Italian troops and territory. A third was the new Federal war tax, which had just become operative, taking for Government purposes a huge percentage of the profits of the great corporations. The quotations on many standard securities sank to the lowest levels ‘re- corded since the months of uncertainty and alarm at the opening of the war in Europe. prices on the stock market have been present this spring, but with results so different as to be note- worthy. The tax law of course is still operative, with effects in limiting dividends that are deci- A drive than a secondary one, and against her most pow- erful enemies had an unexpected success for many weeks. While this crisis of anxiety was at its Third Liberty Loan. When the country is putting its spare cash to the amount of billions into attractive Government bonds it certainly cannot be expected to have any very great surplus to put into lesser securities. Some lowering in the quotation on the latter was inevitable. But the way the market has held up has been lewemarkable and reabsuring. Those securities in which a decline of more than a few dollars has {tle benefitted by war activities but having behind All three of these influence’ of weight in fixing | height, subscriptions began to be taken for the apace. Now it is Vandeventer place that bas been made “safe” by the fiat of the police department and the complaint board. Henceforth the Plain People may tread its pavements without risk of being banished or beheaded. We are glad te welcome Vandeventer place to the United States. While it. is true that it has not exactly come in of its own volition, there is no doubt that when it gets acquainted with us it will like us and will want to stay in and will be glad to have us use it as an open door be- tween our eastern and western possessions. Most of us, probably, will seldom have occa- sion to use it, but it is nice to know that if we do want to take a short cut we can do it without bothering to get passports and letters of intro- duction. And we extend the same liberty to the inhabitants of Vandeventer place. We in- vite them to walk on our sidewalks and motor along our boulevards tooting their horns and scattering the aroma of ‘Vandeventer place gaso- line. It goes to show that America can assimilate anything if you give it time. It used to be that the only way to get into Vandeventer place was to marry in or hire out to one of the first fami- lies or join the Fire Department, but gradually internal change has brought about a more toler- ant attitude toward the outlanders and a grow- ing willingness to fellowship with them. With all the world turning to democracy it is not too much to hope that Westmoreland place and all the other places will soon forego their insularity and consent to annexation so that we may walk through them without feeling that we are stran- gers in a strange land. ++ A circus is in town, but, alas, times have changed. The boys who used to wish they could run away and join the circus have run away and joined the army. = = PRIVATE DETECTIVE EVIDENCE. The unanimous decision of a New York appel- late court in setting aside a decree of divorce that was obtained on testimony given by private detectives is of general importance because it strikes at the roots of such testimony. The pre- siding justice frankly stated he could not believe the oath of a hireling who had bored holes in hotel walls to spy upon a law-abiding citizen. It would be wrong, of course, to deny that all private detectives are without honor or credit in|. the courts. Many of them have done valuable work towards unmasking secret enemies of the public welfare. But there is something so utterly despicable in the calling of the domestic spy that it is hard for the average man to believe he would not be willing, for a price, to resort to anything, perjury included. The business is not attractive to men of self- respect. It is one in which the employe often is not Hired to learn the truth, but to get sufficient evidence to support court proceedings.

FTER all, it seems to me we have kept our fense of civilization, there is a much better feeling about our part in the war than there was a short time ago. The Senate is still pretty rambunctious, and Col, Roosevelt is not always complimentary; but we need nagging, and it is good for us to have both the Sen- ate and the Colonel about as they are. ‘*Of course, some part of our better feeling i¢ due to the failure of the Germans to accomplish too much in their spring drive. If the allies had failed for want of just that additional strength which we might have supplied with accomplishing more than we did, then the whole blame for that failure would Mave fallen upon us, the administration at Washington would have been put on the defensive, and our friends the Re- publicans would have had the Democrats on the run. The allies have spared us all this by taking pretty good care of themselves without us. They have earned anything we can do for them hereafter, for what might have happened would have plunged us over here into a muddle. It would not only have damaged our own progress in the war: but would have set all those who have been howling and doing what they could to interfere over those who have for the most part worked silently to get this country into the War. ‘*Therefore, what I want to do at this time is to take my hat off to the country at large. We have, as I said, kept our shirts on pretty well. We have been mighty patient; we have tried to be fair. I think we are past the chance of a stampede now. The great mass of all we had to move is moving—not swiftly, with many creakings and sometimes imperceptibly— but it is moving, and by that sign the war is won. I can’t help feeling good about it. I was afraid, both for the people who had it to do and those for whom they were trying to do it. They both made mistakes, but they both did bully.’’ =a Los La] One of our readers, who is not as familiar with the names of professional baseball players as he might be, makes almost nothing of the following rem- nants in one of our morning contemporaries of what were formerly proper names: Gof’stein, Burg'’rf, B’ber, M’L’n, St’an, Moeh’p, Sta’r, Sch’elz, Ma’h, Ev’y WGod’y, Frackl’g, Li’berg and Fis’ ” Ask for transferon payment of tices, otede- wise they will not be issued, Our sign banter days he bas, waited: ieee oe someone else to turn this in, and is finally doing so himself.

If the United Rdilways Company wants to live in peace with the rest of us, it must at least respect the common tongue. It might have done so in this instance by announcing that transfers will be issued only upon payment of fares, which would not have jammed. up singulars, plurals and goodness knows what in the manner displayed.

HE was one of the bright stars of S the whole choice collection whose headquarters'is at the Wilhelmstrasse, in Berlin. Her name was Greta Nassi and she was strik- ingly handsome. Also she was clev- er. At last she became too clever for her own good, as you shall see. Out of the millions of dollars which Germany spent every year on spies a goodly percentage of the money went to the upkeep of a big staff of secret agents in Austria. For Germany seems to have dis- trusted Her unlucky Austrian allies more bitterly than she distrusted En- gland or France, and every item of secret news from Vienna was bought and well paid for by Berlin. Some years ago Greta Nassi was sent to the Austrian capital by orders of the Kaiser. There she posed as a rich widow. <As she was well intro- duced she had little trouble in get- tiig invitations to houses which the Emperor of Austria was in the habit of honoring with his presence. O: Emperor Franz Josef had an eye for a charming woman. His career as, a libertine did not cease when his beard began to turn white and his head to grow bald. He met Greta—as the Kaiser had planned he should—and her arts presently enslaved the old fel- low, as the Kaiser had also planned. Franz Josef became a constant visi- tor at the lovely Greta’s Vienna house, and he invited her frequently to be a guest at his castle of Schon- brunn. He babbled willingly in reply to her artful questions about state affairs. So sure was he of her devo- tion to himself that it never seems to have occurred to him to be on his guard in talking to her. Every few days Greta’s detailed reports of these conversations were sent to the Wilhelmstrasse. She sent more than mere reports of the Emperor’s ‘tonfidences.. For at Schonbrunn she was often able to get a peep inside the old Emperor's own desk and to read important state documents and letters hidden there. Copies of these went regular- ly to Germany. Greta was earning her pay easily and pleasantly, and it was good pay. The salary and bonuses from the Kaiser were increased by costly presents from her elderly adorer— | presents for which (in more ways than one) the overtaxed Austrian nation was made to pay. UT Greta was not content. She scented bigger game. There was a pricelessly valuable Aus- trian state secret for which several * GRETA NASSI, Germany’s Spy in) rival nations stood ready to pay a fabulous sum. Germany expected Greta to get hold of that secret if she could. But Germany expected her to pro- cure it at a price far lower than cer- tain other countries were willing to pay. It was part of her job and called for no’ special reward from the Wilhelmstrasse. And here is where Greta’s ness expanded into genius. She procured the precious secret. No outsider knows just how she did it, except that it was through Franz Josef’s infatuation for her. To this day no outsider knows the exact nature of that secret. Greta took the secret to the agents of another government and offered if for sale. It was bought from her most eagerly and at a price that made the spy rich for life. Then Greta retired from business and went to the Riviera to enjoy life in lazy luxury. But she had not counted on the German spy system nor the Kaiser's revengeful hate of all who outwitted him. A few weeks after she reached the Riviera she went one day for her usual drive on a nearby road. Sh2 did not return. Next morning the dead body of Greta Nassi was found lying at the roadside. The Wilhelmstrasse’s arm was long. And its revenge had been swift. Roumania’s Royal Crown Cap- tured by Germans. HEN disaster overtook Rou- manian arms and the Ger- mans under Mackensen and Falken- hayn swept through the country, it was not possible for King Ferdinand to remove all the crown jewels from Bucharest in time to prevent their falling into the hands of the invad- ers. Among the treasures captured by the Kaiser's hordes was the Royal Crown of Roumania, which is re- garded as the grimmest object of its kind in the world. This crown was made by command of King Charles, predecessor of Fer- dinand, from the steel of a Turkish gun captured at Pleyna. On May 10, clever- 1881, after this and the simple gold- | en crown made for the Queen had been consecrated by the Metropoli- tan, King Charles took his crown into his hands with the words: “I assume with pride this crown wrought from a cannon aprinkled with the blood of our heroes and consecrated by the church. I accept it as a symbol of the independence and powers of Roumania. Lady: And t you get one? Tramp: No, mum. Yer see, he's been dead 28 years.—Chicago Blade.

Bind the edge with tape or bias strips of muslin and you have a serviceable silence cloth. To cleanse a bottle put some crushed egg shells into it and fill the bottle half full of strong soapsuds. The flour, salt and sugar sacks serve many purposes in the kitchen. The printed matter can be easily eradicated by soaking the sacks in kerosene over night and then wash- ing them in the usual way. To brighten the brass curtain rings polish them with vinegar. The brass jardinieres, candlesticks, etc., should be rubbed with pieces of lemon «dipped in boiling water. Polish with a soft cloth. If ants have taken up their abode in the closet, sprinkle ground cloves on the shelves. To restore your sponge, in case it has soured, rub a fresh lemon thor- oughly into the sponge and then rinse several times in clear water. When thickening gravies use a fork instead of a spoon for stirring and you will have a much smoother gravy. To remove the odor or taste from saucepans in which onions or fish have been cooked, put a tablespoon- washing them. If you are planning wooden win- dow or porch boxes, it will pay you to whitewash the inside of the box before putting in the soil and plants. This will preserve the box and will prevent insects. When washing a sateen dress use borax water and you will retain the original gloss. To avoid the “necessity of stivring fruit while stewing it put it in the double boiler with a little water and sugar. If you have no double boiler place fruit into a jam jar or sauce- pan, then set it into a larger sauce- pan of boiling water. Let this sim- mer until fruit is cooked. The oatmeal left from breakfast will make a nice dessert for lunch. Take one and a half cups of the cold oatmeal and sweeten to taste. If thick, add sufficient milk to make a mixture of the consistency of pud- ding. Add a cup of stewed prunes oven about 15 minutes. How the “Kohinoor’ Was Named. ° CORDING to Hindu legend, the A history of the Kohinoor, the famous diamond fresented to Queen Victoria in 1849 by the Bast India Company, goes back 5000 years, when it was owned by the hero, Karna. It afterward passed through many hands, but incident is more interesting than the one which is said to have given it its name. It was held by a Mohammed Shah, a Hindu ruler, when he was defeated by Nadir Shah in the eighteenth cen- tury. The conqueror, being told that the gem was concealed in the turban of his rival, called the latter before him and suggested that they ex- change headgear. Mahammed’s tur- ban was unfolded and the dazzling stone revealed. “Kohinoor!” (Mountain of Light”) gasped Nadir. This gave it its name. The diamond is said to have} originally weighed 793 carats, but? successive cuttings reduced it to its present size 102% carats. Ten mil- lion dollars has been suggested as its probable value. The largest diamond on record is the “Cullinan,” found in South Africa, which weighed 3025% carats. It was bought by the colony for $750,000 and presented to King Ed- ward. A flaw developed when it came to be cut and its size was re- duced to 516% carats. First Automobile Patent. T HE first application for a patent for an automobile“was filed in the United States Patent Office by George B. Selden, 39 years ago. Sel- den was a patent lawyer in Roches- ter, N. Y., when he first began to ex- periment ‘with the idea of a vehicle rropelled by a gasoline engine. Con- sidering that his “road engine” was not yet perfected and that the times were not ripe for it, he secured delay after delay, and the patent was not definitely issued until 1895. From the first, doubts were cast on the validity of the Selden patent, but it earned a fortune for the astute in- ventor-attorney and for a long time dominated the motor car industry of the United States. = nen = Soap should be used very carefully if you want to keep your hair loo its best.

The Boston Red Sox, who started out the campaign as though they in- tended to make a runaway race of the .American Leagne pennant cam- paign, have slowed down to a walk. The Yankees yesterday handed the Haubtown crew the third straight de- feat. Of the last nine games played by the Red Sox, the club has been able to-win only four.

PAUL, Minn., May 7.—The State Auditor ruled yesterday that complimentary tickets issued to a boxing contest in Minnesota are tax- able Ly the State as' well as by the Government, if the persons using such tickets have no official, journal- istic or pugflistic connection with the event. Jack Reddy, secretary of ¢he box- ing club which put on the Dempsey- Miske fight here last Friday, filed his report yesterday. The report was ac- companied by a check for $1524, which fepresented 10 per cent of the receipts. . This money goes to the State Red Crosg fund. The State Auditor itmmediately drew on Reddy for $171 more. He held that complimentary tickets val- ued at $1710 had been used by per- sons who went to the fight merely for amusement “Maryland City Would Nal Give to War Charities Ens ie “fifth inn between ‘the oie _Prifits of Title Bout BALTIMORE.

Eddie Randall, veteran local light- weight, will make his farewell ap- pearance in the ring tonight when he me Harvey Thorpe of Kansas City in the feature bout at the South Broadway Athletic Club. Randall 7 has asserted positively that he wili not box again no matter what the result of tonight’s battle may be. The veteran's reason for quitting the game is that he finds the stress of training too much for him. Eddie used to c@nsider conditioning himself for a.riig contest a pleasure and not labor, but age is beginning to exact its toll, despite the fact that he has always taken the best of care of him- self. In Thorpe he is meeting one of the most rugged voungsters in the ring. The Kansas Cityan has met, stayed with and defeated some of the best lightweights of the present age. He was, however, knocked out here by Benny weonard in 1916, while Charley White gave him a severe beating in Kansas City previous to the Leonard bout. Harry’Claves, one of Randall’s box- ing pupils, who has won his last four bouts here, will appear in the semi- windup tonight against Hal Clark, former Milwaukee lightweight, but who now is a soldier at Jefferson Barracks. This bout, as well as the main event, is scheduled to she eight rounds. Willie Necla and Young Curley have been matched to meet in a six-round preliminary. Walter Heisner will ref- eree the bouts.

DETROIT, May 7.—Eric Erick- son, the big Swede, who came back to the Tigers after a season on the Pacific Coast, yesterday held the Browns to five safties and Fielder Jones’ men dropped the first battle of their long road engagement, 9 to 3. Up to the eighth inning, Erickson had yielded only one safety, that foing to Sisler. However, in the las* two he eased up and the sala made four. Dave Davenport. Lefty oe and Byron Houck, the flingers usei by Jones, were hammered to all cor- ners of the lot, being found for 14 safeties. Of the bingles off the! Brown moundmen, 10 went to Vitt, Cobb and Yelle. The Browns’ first run camein the seventh on Sisler’s single, an error and Gedeon’s sacrifice fly. The other two came in the eighth, on a triple by Tobin, singles by Smith and Aus- tin and Young’s error. Jennings’ men started after Davenport in the first, and drove him off the. hill in the third, when four tallies were rushed over. Houck, who worked the eighth frame, was found for five ‘hits and three runs. The teams are scheduled to play the second game of the series this afternoon, Two Hits for Sisler. George Sisler, the Browns’ first sacker, continued his good hitting getting two of the “five raps off Er- ickson. Tobin, Austin and Smith were the others to connect safely against Jennings’ newcomer. If Erickson continues to pitch as he has on his last few outs, the Jun- galeers ‘may be in the thick ofthe pennant’ fight befor@® many more weeks. Erickson has won two games and lost two, one of his defeats com- ing the hands of the Browns on May $—2 in 10 innings. He had Serica 30 innings and allowed 27 hits. The opposition has scored 13 runs. * George Hale, the Browns’ catcher, made his first apeparance of the séa- son behifid the plate, relieving Nuna- maker late in the game. He did not get a chance to show whether his sore arm had mended. - : . Byron Houck Is Bumped. Houck, the Pacific Coast recruit, was given a warm reception by the Tigers in the eighth.

New York is even interested in the game, attendances show. But this is a mere flash in the pan, his- tory points out. The facts show that wrestling In the last 25 years has been profitable for a few and then not always from a box office standpoint. Wrestlers who have survived usually get their money by “touring the bushes.” The bushman disguises his identity and matches himself against the pride of the countryside in Hilltown or Dale- town. He easily tosses him and milks the community of its surplus wealth in bets. But they «seldom groW rich, even at this. Charley Olson; one of the wealthiest of the heavyweights in the game for the last 15 years, quit the mat about six years ago with a few hundreds and since then has made a fortune for himself out of the rr ovies. Frank Gotch and Hacken- schmidt are the only two wrestlers of note who became wealthy as a result of. euaren- tees or gate » receipts. Champion Drew $56. S a means of earning a Iftvelfhood, . Wrestling cannot compare with boxing. There are 10 times as many public boxing matches held annually as there are wrestling bouts and the most ordinary of them will attract more “gate” money than a majortty of the wrestling” championships. Jack Fisher, the lightweight title hdlder, wrestled for the champion- ship here several times. Once he was paid $56 in admissions, The biggest house he ever attracted here amount- ed to $700. Any fairly good boxing card will attraet that much money. When Al Wacem won the title from Johhny Billiter it cost the St. Louisan $112 to promote the bout. It did not — pay ——* 6 Big “Gates” Coteuanad. The largest gate receipts taken in at any mat match in this country was at the Gotch ckenschmidt fiasco at American League Park, Chi- cago, several years ago. The total was said to. be $88,000. The largest fight gate was $275,000, at Reno, when Jeffries fought Johnson. Wil- lard and Moran drew $150,000 for a 10-round no-decision contest. Today there are few places where any wrestling match other than a near-world’s championship affair can draw flies. If Caddock, Lewis, Stecher, or Zbyszko is not one of the principals, it’s a “frost.” Wrestlers of lesser note prosper chiefly through side wagers «nd not through: paid admissions.

This sur- plus was equal! to $2.30 a share on the $17,485,750 outstanding stock, against $3.50 a share earned in 1916. Based on the present financial po- sition of the International Paper Co., opinions to the effect that the direc- tors will shortly declare a dividend on the $19,750,940 common stock out- standing, appear to te justified. In- terests close to the company, who the past as to what the company. was doing, are confident that the common dividend will be resumed; but wheth- er action along this line will be taken at the directors’ meeting next Wednesday, or at some cusere day, is a matter of conjecture. The most amazing series of facts meeting of 45 steel company execu- tives called by the War Industries Board last Friday. The salient points brought out were: There is an acute shortage of steel and the Government was on the point of commandeering all steel mills. As an alternate course the steel men pledged to devote themselves exclusively to Government work as long as the Government's de- mands were unfilled. Building con- struction plans of the,U. S. Govern- ment are now 20 per cent in excess of the total building construction of the Government for the three-year period ended 1917 and plans run into 1919 and 1920. Between 300,000 and 400,000 tons of ship plates are needed. The Director-General of Railways wants 2,000,000 tons of rails and an increase in rail production must fol- low; it will take $2 weeks to fill the present steel rail requirements. New car construction calls for 1,300, 000 tons of steel. Practically all of the $10,000,000 5 per cent notes, which. matured May 1 have been paid off by the United accumulated for that purpose as long ago as last fall. With the notes out of the w&y the United Fruit will still have a balance of practically $6,500,000 in cash, or roughly only $1,000,000 less than when it started its fiscal year the first of last October. United Fruit intends to run strong as on the 15th day of June it will draw down its cash to the extent of roughly $4,000,000 in meking its Fed- eral tax payments. With seven months of its fiscal year completed the big fruit. company has already earned a comfortable margin above the full 8 per cent dividend on the stock. That, in fact, was covered in just half the period to date, so that since the middle of January there has been an accruing equity for shareholders. \ Charcoal Iron Co. of America for the first quarter earned $531,553, aft- er deducting expenses, including sal- aries, stumpage on cordwood and timber, relining furnaces and other accruing renewals. Teh company has outstanding $5,217,250 preferred stock paying 6 per cent and $2,839,350 of common stock. In the peport to the stockholders, Frank W. Blair, presi- dent, says that capital account has increased $159,000 in the three months, the total being $10,060,805. The time limit for the redemption of Cerro de Pasco Copper Co.’s out- standing 6 per cent bonds at 105 and interest expired May 1. But the big- ‘gest part of the pondholders elected to avail themselves of the conversion privilege at 30 a share. Approxi- mately $6,927,000 of the bonds were converted into stock, and the com- pany now has outstanding ‘about 918,000 shares of no par value, and no bonded debt. —_———_@—_—_— Dividends Declared.
