AMERICA BEHIND EUROPE.
William Allen White Discusses Social
Conditions. --.-.. ..--...

SOIOiSlO!Ss
Chicago, March l. National re-
sponsibility is toward the honest, hard
working man, who at the end of long
Industrious life, through no fault of
his own, finds that he has nothing to
show for his labor and only charity
upon which he may depend for sup
port"
So said William Allen White at the
meeting of the City club. ~
1T is obvious" he added, that pub
lie or private charities do not satisfy
the conscience of the American peo-
pie. For more and more the people
are beginning to revolt at laws which
permit man to gouge pennies from
the millions in order that he may
proudly distribute dollars to the few.
"And so the poorhouse is all Amer
lean civilization offers, legally, to the
men and women who toll through the
heat and turmoil OF the day and find
themselves broken and feeble at sun
set.
"Other civilizations do better than
ours. European civilizations provide
for an old age pension, for cheap state
insurance, for laborers' savings banks
under state ownership and control and
for other legal devices so that honest,
industrious men and women may not
have to beg or go to the poorhouse in
their old age.">

PeQuea and West Lampeter townships

OF five Mennonite ministers, all but
one of whom live In the same section,
have been burned and this is believed
to be ample ground for the suspicion
that there is a peculiar enmity exist
Ing against the ministers of this faith.
The Mennonites of the county are
greatly exercised over the numerous
fires, many dreading to go to bed for
fear that some Of their property
might be burned. The Mennonites do
not seek justice or redress in the
courts, their faith being opposed to
such proceedings.

INTRODUCED BY TILLMAN.
Resolution of Inquiry Contains Pointed
Questions.

Questions.
Washington, March Ex-senator
Tillman has introduced a resolution
calling upon the senate committee on
finance to conduct. an investigation
and answer. some pointed questions
bearing upon financial legislation.
The questions on which a report is
asked are as follows:
whether the national banks in the
city of New York and elsewhere are
in the habit, under the guise of COM
mercial loans, of furnishing permanent
capital for speculative or other enter
prises, and, if so, what legislation is
necessary to prevent continuance of
such practice.
Whether the treasury department
had knowledge of the loans made by
the National Bank of North America
of New York city, which are the sub
ject of a suit by the receiver of said
bank against Charles w. Morse, and
of other similar transactions in other
national banks.
Whether national banks are now
engaged by themselves or through
other organizations in attempting to
control or dictate the legislation of
congress upon currency measures.
The committee is further instruct
ed to ascertain what, if any, legisla-
tion is necessary to discourage or
prevent the habit of persons holding
the Office of comptroller of the cur
rency or other treasury officials from
making their offices stepping stone
to employment by national banks.
Whether national banks are using
trust company or other financial assoc
Citations as dummy agencies through
which to transact business forbidden
by the law governing national banks
and what legislation is necessary to
prevent such an evasion of the stat
utes."

sony Put on Naval COMMITTEES.
Washington, March 13.-The hear
Ing OF witnesses has begun before the
special committee of the house ap.
pointed to investigate the charges
made by Congressman Lilley of Con.
necticut that illegal methods were
used by the Electric Boat company
to secure legislation by congress. Rep
resentative Hobson testified that Law
renee Steer Of New York, represent
ing the Electric Boat company, had
told him that his company had infu.
ence with Speaker Cannon to get him
appointed on the committee on naval
affairs if he stood right on subma-
rines.
At the opening of the session Mr..
I-tlley addressed the committee, say
ing that he desired to correct the i'm
preston that had been created by the
report Of the committee on rules to
the effect that he had charged that
members of congress had been bribed.
He denied that he had made such
charges, but said that up to the pres
ent time his accusations have been
solely against the Electric Boat com.
pany and Its predecessor, the Holland
company, and had covered the point
that these companies had made an
effort to influence legislation by con.
gress. Mr.. Lilley then read care
fully prepared statement, receiving
the closest attention from all the
members of the committee.
When Mr.. Lilley had completed his
written statement he was questioned
by Mr.. Olmsted. He gave the names
OF Franklin H. Taylor and John T.
Kellogg of Waterbury, Conn.,, and q
Mr.. Ferris of Bridgeport as those of
persons who had asked him to vote
for an appropriation for submarine
boat legislation. He also said that
Representative Hobson had been ap-
preached by a member of the Electric
company with proposition to get
him on the naval affairs committee If
he would favor submarine boat leg
1slation. He spoke of an amendment
to previous legislation offered by Mr.
Loudenslager, which, he said, he
thought had been prepared by Mr..
