MUST PAY FORAGE BILLS,
Ruling Affects Military Attaches
Who Hire Horses.

Despite the earnest efforts of the State
department. tho controller of the Treas
urN has decided that military attaches OF
foreign embassies must pay the forage
bills for horses hired or lea sed by them
The matter reached the controller on an
appeal from the decision of the auditor
in the case of Lieut.. Col. j. r. Reyn-
olds Lands, military attacbc at Rome
The auditor dsallowed claims of Lieut.
Col. Lands agsregating S:57. -, for for
age of the horse used by him there The
controller upholds the auditor. saying
that under the law ii is necessary for
an officer entitled to forage to own his
own animal.
The State Department points out that
military attaches abroad arc compelled
to have horses for their official duties and
that it has been considered more econOm-
ical to authorize them 10 hire or lease
animals than to carry their own horses
abroad and be compelled to pass the ex-
aminations provided by the many laws as
to imported animals.

No Further Action Expected.

No further action by the House of
Representa- is expected in the i'm
parchment proceedings against Judge
ianford. Representative Clayton, chair
man of the House committee on the judi
ciary, following the receipt of the tele
gram from Representative Graham of the
subcommittee. saying that the subcom-
mittee favored ending the inquiry, issued
a statement in which he said the House
had the power to continue the proceed
inss but that the subcommittee favored
ending the matter.
No formal announcement will DE made
until the subcommittee makes its final re-
port
The impeachment proceedings were
started on the floor of the House by Rep
resentative Berger. socialist, OF Wisconsin.
The Judge recently revoked naturaliza-
ton papers OF John OLSON. a SWsede who
came to America. OLSON happened TO
be a socialist. Attorney General Wicker
sham overruled the decision. Judge Han
ford based his decision on the statement
by OLSON that the Constitution of the
United Sta les should be changed to con-
form to sociaiistic principles. Represent
ative Berger based his Impeachment pro
ceedings this decision OF the judge and
upon alleged misconduct In other ways.

that Mrs. Lathrop read in the New
York Sun a letter from a Mrs. Sarah
Harris, woman in her early thirties
who is hopeless paralytic, praying
that the state of New York legalize
euthannsia, or an easy death to end
lifelong suffering and pain. Some Of
the New York doctors would kill the
1ncurables, but when interviewed by a
reporter, Mrs. Rose Hawthorne Lath-
rop, the Catholic, was Mortified at the
suggestion. She said:
must absolutely discountenance
any such suggestion that the State
interfere and end the lives of such
unfortunates. 1t seems to me that q
religious woman would not say such
things. They are so contrary to re-
hgious faith. wish you could see the
Christian resignation and patience, the
sweet bravery of some of our inmates
here, who suffer terribly and know
they can never recover. Then YOU
would realize the enormity of the act
which this woman suggests. I think
it is cowardly."

OF adventures or in the hope of finding
a home knew little Of what they were
to encounter. Today the South Amer
lean continent is in somewhat simi-
lar condition. 1t ia true, however, that
while North America had not been ex-
plored a hundred years ago. South
America has been explored and
mapped, although there are vast areas
which have not been developed.
The rich fields of Brazil and Argen-
tina are as yet almost untouched; cat
tie raising has been developed, and a
great deal Of valuable timber has been
cut. In the mountains are almost I'M
heard-of wealth of base and precious
metals. The South American CONT
nent has already come to be looked
upon by European nations as the
source of food supplies for the people
of the old world, and to develop the
continent England has invested more
than three billion dollars, Germany has
invested more than billion, and other
nations have contributed. AS a result
of these investments, European ma
lions buy hundreds of millions of dol
lars of agricultural products annually
from South American nations. OF
course there is little exploitation in all
this, but with political quiet there can
be lite question that South Amer
lea will develop into the most fruitful
and the richest country in the world
The energy displayed by the people
of the old countries in the develop
ment of the resources in South Amer
lea and the apparent indifference with
which that work is viewed in America
has been the cause for much criticism.
Attempts have been made to cultivate
friendly relations with the South
American republics, but without any
great success. On the other hand, Flu
ropean nations are stepping in and
grabbing the good things. The reason
perhaps lies in the compulsion which
necessity has forced upon the people
OF Europe to develop fields to supply
food for the people, while Americans
have been busy developing their own
rich opportunities.
