MESSAGE FROM WILSON
! COMPLIMENT 70 BRYCE
Fluctuations to Former Am.
bassador at Dinner Given
in His Honor.

LONDON, November IA large and
distinguished gathering welcomed the Rt.
Hon. James Bryce. late British ambassa-
dor at Washington, at the dinner given In
his honor by the Pilgrims last night. The
American ambassador. Walter II. Page.
paid high tribute to the guest of honor
and read messages from the President OF
the United States, Joseph H. Choate.
former amba ssador at London. and
others President Wilson's message was
as follows:
Few men have done more than James
Bryce in strengthening the ties Of friend
ship and brotherhood which unite Eng
land and America and have been the
cause of common aspiration and high
example to the whole world.
The president of the Panama Pacific
international exposition, Charles 4.
Moore. .cabled: Il still hope that the Brit
ish and American tags iwih wave -tegeth-
or at San Franciscoi in 1915.""
Mr.. Bryce's Speech.
Mr. Bryce began his speech by express
ing the belief that the Panama question
would be solved in a manner satisfactory
to both countries. That belief, he said,
was based. on his conviction of the high
rectitude and elevated sense of honor and
International justice possessed by Presi-
dent Wilson y
A large part of Mr.. sBryce's speech
was, devoted indirectly and directly to re-
plying to- criticisms made by the con-
sentative press of his work as ambassa-
dor.
An ambassador to a foreign country,
he said, acted merely as the agent OF
his government and carried out the in
structions OF his government The critics
acted In ignorance, because the only per-
sons who knew what the Ambassador
was trying to do were his foreign ethce
and himself. The danger was that crit
icsms of an ambassador by the press
of his own country had the effect OF
weakening his status and prestige with
the country to which he was accredited.
He himself had once been criticised for
being absent from Washington. The
criticism amused him. but he hoped that
the bad precedent would not be set OF
crIticising servants of the crown when
absent upon business abroad, thereby in
juring the public service itself.
Impressed by Ozark Views"
a"In Washington" he said, Il used to
be struck by the. dark view which the
press news from England conveyed OF
bT1uSn events anu CCIiullluilS, SlCW
which I know to be misleading. Here the
same thing happens Cable messages
and the vivid pens of correspondents in
evitably heighten the color. Unlike
stocks. news would be the better of being
watered when it crosses the sea-
MY other message is to assure you that
the friendship you entertain. for the peo-
pie Of the United States is reciprocated
by them far more universally and far
more hearth. than ever before. There
is a friendship OF governments and u
friendship of nations. The former may
shift with the shifting OF material inter-
ests or be affected by the relations OF
each power with other powers. But the
latter rests on solid and permanent foun-
dations.'
Mr. Bryce said it was the duty of the
two peoples to show others into their
peaceful understanding.

DISCUSS SUFFRAGE
FROM MANY ANGLES
Study Club Meets at Ingram
Memorial Church-NeWs-
papers Stand Criticised.

The question of suffrage and repre-
sentation in Congress for the District Of
Columbia was discussed from many an
giles last night at the meeting OF the
Study Club In Economics. at Ingram Me-
mortal Church. 10th street and Massachu-
sets avenue northeast. The half-and- halt

qualifications for the ballot and taxa
ton without representation" We're amons
the points brought up for praise or con-
the people Of the District have to do is
to make q real demand for the ballot and
1t will be given them.
NJ. I. Weller criticised the newspapers
OF Washington for their stand on the
suffrage question. declaring they have MOI
fairly represented the people OF the Dis
trict Of Columbia. He also directed a
few remarks at the District form Of gov.
eminent; declared that the northeast sec
ton OF the city has been discriminate
against In appointments to District OF
Columbia offices. and concluded with the
statement, Had the people OF the Dis.
trfct been permitted to vote. not one OF
the Commissioners appointed In the last
forty years would have been elected"
Half-and-Half Method Defended.
w. d. Mackenzie Of the Federation OF
Citlsens' Associations defended the half
and-half method Of meeting District ex-
penses. told of the progress Of suffrage
sentiment and declared the business In
terests OF Washington are opposed to
the proposition of enfranchising resi-
dents Of the District through fear that
such a proceeding may endanger prop
erty values.
Representative Graham Of Illinois held
it to be 1.-The grossest tyranny" for the
government to saddle the half-and-hal1
plan on the District. but found few who
sympathized with this view.
Representative Heating of Colorado
stated he would be more than glad to
vote for a bill comforting suffrage on
District residents. This statement was
greeted with cheers, which quickly sub
sided when the Colorado representative
continued with the remark that the only
thing that would prevent his casting a
ballot for District suffrage would be the
continuance of the half-and-half plan.

Why This Low Price?

After a ride in the Master "SiN" you will
wonder how we can offer it at the price,
$2l75.
If the Chalmers Company made but a
thousand or two thousand cars, the price
would be at least $1,000, that's sure. But the
chief items of cost are distributed over a
much larger output.
