Repair The Fountain

Editor of The Post:
We were surprised and sorry to
learn from The Post that the time
honored monument known as the
Public Drinking Fountain had fal-
len on evil days. AS a member of
the w. c. Y. Z. of Newark we will
gladly contribute our modest fee
towards its reconstruction, upon
hearing that such a proposition is
made by the W. G. T. U. We are
especially interested, since Mr..
Frederick ID. Chester, at one time
IN College service, was the "orator
OF the day. when this witness of
fraternal charity was set up as a
gift to the town, We should not
want to see it fall down dead.

Delnarvia

DELMARVIA is to be a house
hold word. Heretofore it's mean-
ing has never been realized. It was
high sounding phrase used by
politicians and after-dinner gas ar
lists. No Board of Trade Banquet
was a success without mention of
the beauties and possibilities of
Delmarvia. In short it was a term
used by business men on social oc-
casions. They did not know what
they were talking about; it ism t
necessary on such occasions. The
way to get at the meaning of a
word is to exploit it,-get every
body talking about it.
Well Snellenburg of Whining

Better Babies And

The Better Babies Contest is a
popular scientific movement to in
sure better Babies and better
race. 1t consists Of entering, exam
ming and awarding prizes to
children Of under years on exact

are applied to livestock shows.
Mere beauty does not count. Ply
steal and mental development only
are considered. The Better Fables
Contest insures a better race of
Americans, because it teaches par
ents how to improve the physical
of children already born
and to protect those yet unborn.
1T rouses interest in the conserva-
ton Of child life and health and in
all forms of child welfare. It
forges a connecting link between
parents and teachers, between the
home and the scientific study of

lister of foreign affairs today in a
statement to the press clearly defin.
ed Russia's attitude toward the allies
and her stand against Germany. The
statement, NJ. Sazonoff said, was
made because of attempts by the re-

discord and awaken anti-English
sentiment
Recent avowals by this small ele-
ment as reflected in a few reaction
airy journals NJ. Sazonoff declared,
went so far as to compliment Emperor
William and laud the Hohenzollern
family. They alluded exultingly, he
said, to the fall of Antwerp as the
approaching end of the war, adverse
ly criticised England by stating that
sne was getting other countries to
fight her battles and also plainly fore
casted an Anglo-Russian rupture.
This small made in Germany
lelement," said NJ. Sazonoff, is who'll
y negligible as far as Russian policy
is concerned"

Mexico City, Oct 19.-General Car

telegram demanding of the Aguas
Calientes convention an explanation
of by what authority that body had
assumed supreme command of the
government The message informed
the delegates to the convention that
sole power of government would rest
in general Carranza's hands until the
voice of the people decided otherwise
Carranza has not yet resigned as
head of the government, nor will he
do so, according to an official slate
ment issued by his private secretary
tonight.
"The Aguas Calientes convention

conditions here would improve in con-

According to information here, Sir
George paish did not come to Wash
ington with any plan to present, but
upon invitation to hear such plans as
the United States government may
have to meet American debts TO Eng
lish merchants.
1t was said tonight that English
bankers and merchants have coming
to them from the United States more
than $200000,000 They know that
this country has about Sl000,00O 600
in gold and are at loss to under
stand when England does business on
probably a third less gold, the United
States is not anxious to meet its OBJ
legations now in that metal.
Government officials since the war
began have been loath to see Ameri-
can gold exported, and the 100000
600 gold pool was created only after
much discussion and trouble to meet
the emergency, In addition to the
fact that officials do not want to see
exports of gold it is not an easy mat,
ter for the treasury to get it, The
$500 national banks in this country
hold about $375,000000 in gold GER
tificates against which gold is held in
the treasury. The rest is largely
scattered among the people. The
banks cannot part with much of their

reserve, and the treasury probaly
would have a hard time getting
quick hundred millions from lndivid,
uals who hold it. These facts prof.
ably will be pointed out to the Eng.
ishmen
No matter what plan is worked out
it will be necessary for Sir George to
return to England for personal pre-.
sentation of it to the English cabinet
or to carry on correspondence with
his government by cable He mas no
authority to accept any proposal and
probably none TO refuse any
According to authorities here. how.
ever, it is possible that the conference
will develop that English bankers ave
wiling to accept a short term paper
bearing tho Endorsement of American
federal reserve banks or of some wall
known banking institution not direct

a decided improvement and oby ato
large gold exports.
1t was said tonight that cotton ex.
changes probably will be open shortly
if arguments made here availed. one
of the difficulties at present Is the
fact that there are no quotations on
which the factor or the manufacturer
can base offers.
The question of opening the Lon
| don and New York stock exchanges
| probably will be taken up later at
conferences with New York bankers.
Secretary McAdoo said tonight that
representatives of leading bankin,,
houses in New York will be invited
to these conferences.

that the visiting Englishment will use
every effort to yield as much as pos
