RAPS ROOSEVELT
SPEECH IN CAIRO
CORNELL PROFESSOR CALLS
UTTERANCES TACTLESS
Says Former President Not Called
on to Tell Egyptians How to
Manage Own Az
fairs
Associated Pregsl

CHICAGO, March 30-Prof. Nathan
iel Schmidt, head of the department or
Oriental languages and literature at
Cornell university, who has just re-
turned from a protracted residence i'll
Egypt, Syria and Arabia, criticised for
mer President RooseVelts recent speech
at Cairo at a luncheon given today by
the Chicago association.
"There are plenty of Americans in
Egypt and Arabia today" he said,
"who have dealt more tactfully with
those numerous questions which go to
make peace between nations than did g.
former president of the United States
who spoke in Cairo the other day.
1.-THE speech was rather uncalled for,
think. Now, a German would say
that Mr.. Roosevelt was just right. 1t Is
the German policy to lay down the law,
AMI if necessary to lay on the lash.
They would think it wholly proper that
he should tell the Egyptians how to
manage their affairs.
"But there is a question in my mind.
I lived there a long time, and used to
read the Egyptian nationalist neWspa-
pers every day. There is really tre-
mendous FEELING. / think the truth is
that the English policy of pouring mon
ey into the country and developing 1t
commercially, and at the same time al
lowing extreme freedom of speech, is
the best one in the long run. You can't
use force effectively on those people
and whip them into amiable subjects.
They have long memories, and as for
freedom of speech, they've got to have
it. It's in the blood"

RUNAWAY CAUSES
FATAL ACCIDENT
THREE INJURED WHEN TRAIN
STRIKES BUGGY
Fourteen-Year-OId Girl May Die in
Santa Fe Hospital from Basal
Fracture Received in
Collision

A pair of horses. hitched to a buggy
in which two young girls and a IT.
year-old boy were riding, became
frightened at a passing automobile in
Colorado street, South Pasadena, last
| night, and after a mad gallop extend
ing for mile and a half. crashed into
the Los Angeles bound Santa Fe linn
tied train at the Lincoln park crossing,
fatally injuring one of the girls and Sc
riously injuring the other girl and boy.
Helen Howard, aged IA years, is at
the Santa Fe hospital, suffering from a
basal fracture of the skull and an in
jury which necessitated the amputatIon
of her right leg below the knee. The
physicians at the hospital stated her
injuries were fatal.
Her step-sister, Daisy Rodgers, Is
years old, is occupying an adjacent cot
in the same hospital, suffering from a
fracture of the left collarbone and null
tiple bruises of the head and body.
Lester Edwards, II years old, es-
capped with decorations of the head and
face and a sprained left shoulder.
The young persons live in Eagle Rock
and yesterday afternoon Edwards in
vited the girls to accompany him for a
ride. The girls complied and Daisy,
sitting on Helen's lap, took the reins,
and the merry party started down Col
orado street.
The putting of the auto frightened the
horses, and before Edwards could take
the reins they were galloping madly
down the street. Edwards made every
effort to stop the frantic animals, but
to no avail, and the Lincoln Park
crossing was reached just as the Santa
Fe limited train was rushing on its
way to Los Angeles.
The engineer saw the runaway, but
was unable to stop the train in time to
avoid the collision. The engine struck
the rear of the horses and scattered
the occupants of the buggy.
Miss Howard was hurled through the
air, and it is thought her head came in
contact with a telegraph pole, and
caused the basal fracture. Her right
leg was caught and crushed. Miss
Rodgers, who was driving the horses,
was tossed against a pile of rocks, but
her injuries, according to the physi
clans, will not prove fatal.
The train was stopped and the three
persons were taken to Los Angeles and
treated at the Santa Fe hospital. Young
Edwards was frantic with grief, and
last night was unable to make CO.
herent statement other than to say the
horses became frightened and ran
away. He paid no attention to his own
injuries, but was solicitous as to the
condition of the young girls.
At the Santa Fe hospital it was re-
ported early this morning that Miss
Howard had but a slight chance of re-
covery and her death was momentarily
expected.

Been Disappointed
Twice
ASSOCIATED Pressl


SAN DIEGO, March 90.-Thomas
Foreman and Gertrude Seifert, the
youthful pair who eloped for a second
time last Tuesday, are to be married.
Such, at least, was the announcement
made tonight after family conference
at the home of Police Matron Cham
bers, where young Miss Sefert has been
staying since the return from her flight.
There is, however, one string, rather
long one, to their prospective bliss.
John Seifert, the girls father, con-
sents to the marriage only on condition
that it shall be deferred for eighteen
months, and that in the meantime his
daughter shall take the trip to Europe
with him as planned before the elope-
ment. Miss Seifert assents to this ar
rangement and expresses herself as de-
lighted to be reconciled with her pa
rents.
Young Foreman. however, will try to
persuade Mr.. Seifert to permit the mar
riage before the trip to Europe. That
he will consent seems doubtful, but he
has so far relented toward his daugh-
ter's youthful suitor as to permit him
to visit her at Mrs. Chambers house
this evening.
Miss Seifert is somewhat i'll as a
result of the hardships of the flight
into the snow-clad mountains, but
seemingly is very happy over the new
arrangement. @

1t is learned tonight that Mr.. Seifert
is arranging to take his daughter east

ROOSEvELT'S AID
ASKED BY CHINA
Empire Plans Putting 22,ooo,ooo Men
on War Footing and Becoming
Greatest Military Power
In the World

PEKING, March 30.-Great interest
is expressed in Chinese official circles
over the interview at Cairo Saturday
between WI Ting Fang, former minis
ter from China to the United States,
and former President Roosevelt. 1t Is
generally known that WI Ting Fang
purposely arranged his route homeward
from America to China so he could
meet Col. Roosevelt and discuss with
the latter great plans for the reorgan-
ization of the Chinese army, to which
Wu will devote his energies on the
return to the empire.
Because of Roosevelt's knowledge of
the workings of the United States war
department, of which he was once as
sistant secretary, and because of his
practical knowledge gained on the field
and while president, WI has long cher
ished a dream, which has enthused
Chinese officialdom, of making the for
mer president the actual leader of the
army organization work in China.
WI is said to have actually broached
the matter at one time with Roosevelt
as a substitute for the African trip,
and the former president, while not
willing to accept the task at the time,
was enthusiastic over it and promised
every possible aid to China.
The interview at Cairo, therefore, had
considerable significance, and Peking
anxiously awaits it's result.
China is 'army mad" at present. Yin
Tchang, the new Chinese minister of
war, is due here from his former post
at Berlin April 5. to start the active
work of putting the empire on the tre-
mendous war footing of 22000,000 SOL
diers. With her 40O.0O0,00O of popula-
ton, the nation expects to launch the
greatest army in the world and to force
itself to the fore as military power
to be reckoned with. With this object
in ultimate view, Chinese emissaries
have for years been inspecting the mill
tary forces of Europe and America, and
foreign officers have already organized
a we'll drilled nucleus to huge organ
ization in China.
Before leaving Berlin Yin Tchang
said:
I'VE will overshadow all other nations
in military affairs. From the weakest
soldiers will be as the sands of the sea
soIliers will be as the sands of the sea
and the equal in discipline of any
others"

the bill He was questioned closely by
Senators Cummins, Crawford, Jones,
Rayner. and others, and in response
to the inquiries said he would favor
an amendment to the bill permitting
the representation of shippers in cases
involving their interests.
He argued for the general policy of
having all the law business of the
government concentrated in the de-
partment of justice. Mr.. Root will
continue his speech tomorrow.
Senator Root began speaking just
after Senator Ell1irs had introduced
the series of amendments to the bill,
already outlined. In presenting the
amendments, Mr.. Elkins stated they
had the support of a majority of the
members of the committee on inter
state commerce. This remark brought
Mr.. Cummins to his feet. He said that
the committee had had no meeting
and therefore had had no opportunity
to consider the amendments.
