HONOR KEEPER OF
NEWPORT SLU|CES
"
Order of King Leopold for Man
Who Planned Flooding of
German Posts.

DUNKIRK, France Correspond
ence of Associated Press), Nov. 20 -
The man who planned the flooding
of the German positions on the Us N
has been decorated with the Order of
King Leopold, and is likely to re-
ceive some similar recognition from
the allied governments.
This man, whose name has not been
made public, is the keeper of the
great Newport Sluices, which con-
troll the water in the canals and
dykes. His position gave him an
unrivaled knowledge of the possible
ties of inundating the country, and
he pointed out to the Be gian gen.
eral staff that by using the railway
embankment as a dyke and by
breaking the canal bank in certain
places they could inundate most of
the region occupied by the German
trenches and advanced gun positions.
His plan was at once adopted. The
culverts in the railway embankment
were filed with sand and gravel and
then the fire of the heavy guns was
concentrated on points in the canal
bank until 1t burst and the water
spread out over the fields.

LONDON. Nov. 2S.--London news
paper proprietors have agreed that
nothing more than the results OF the

distracts attention from the war and
interferes with recruiting. There are

Churchill. first lord of the admiralty
in long statement in the House Of
Commons yesterday regarding the

ably particular naval incidents of the

the expedition to Antwerp, he said,
were good instances of this. All facts
regarding these incidents ought to be
and would be made public as soon as
possible.
This was is so serious and formid-
able" the first lord continued, that II
Improvement can be effected COM
manding officers ought to give place
to others better able to discharge
their public duty. The same prin-
ciple is applicable to the heads of de-
partments The premier ought not TO
allow any consideration OF party or

TAFT SAYS CANADA

CONTINUED from First Psse5

Mexico has not been an application
of the Monroe Doctrine at all. en-

President and the secretary or state

All means to aid one of the contend

Made Mistake in Mexico.
European nations may, not with
ont reason. charge upon us the re-
sponsibility for present conditions pc
cause we insisted on eliminating
Huerta when he had more chance OF
restoring order than anyone else. In
the choice we made between Generai
Huerta. General Carranza, General
Villa and General Zapata, existing
conditions seem to indicate that we
made a mistake. Huerta seemed to
be the authority in Mexico from
whom some semblance Of law. order,
and respect Of life and property might
have been expected. Huerta sup
posed completely of Madero's taking
off could hardly be a greater disquah-
fcation for the provisional presidency
than the known homicidal record Of
the generals now contending IN the
present anarchy for military dictator
ship. 1t was doubtful counsel or
perfection to attempt to establish an
eligible list of presidents for another
people, especially when we disclaimed
~ n choice
and when the result of our meddling
must be the mere substitution Of one
blood-stained ruler for another In a
country in which death or flight Is the
recognized penalty for political de-
feat.
"It is difficult to deny the fairness
OF the conclusion that in announcing
to the world that we never would
recognize Huerta either as provisional
president or as permanent president,
in lifting the emba. go on the inporta-
ton of arms to enable the forces of
Carranza and Villa to arm them
selves, and in the seizure and occupa-
ton of his chief revenue producing
port of Vera Cruz. we deliberately
drove Huerta out of Mexico. and with
equal elaboration brought in Car
rama and Villa in the expectation
that they would compose the troubles
of unfortunate Mexico. Our policy,
therefore, has been that while def1n-
ing our status as merely that of
'watchful waiting we have neither
watched nor waited, but have in fact
most hastily interviewed and thus find
the present anarchy charged as the
logical consequence of our policy"
Following his address Mr.. Taft was
guest at a reception at the home OF
the president OF the Outlook Club,
Charles Whiting Baker, on South
Mountain avenue. Mr.. Baker, who
was chairman of the meeting, intro
duced the former President.
