Montgomery county, Md, possesses
"a miles of macadam experimental
post roads, according to the Depart
ment of Agriculture, which declares that
there are 456 miles of such roads now

carrier routes.
The federal government pays one
third and the state or county benefited
must defray two-thirds of the cost. The
entire sum of 100000 of federal funds
and 100000 of local funds will be ex-
pended under the supervision and
checking of federal highway engineers.

Germany has for many years pos

Earl Kitchner said that as a soldier
he hitherto had always held officers
of the German army in respect, but
constant testimony that has come in
not only from our own escaped pris-
oners, but from French, Russian, Bel.
gian and American sources, has
brought it home to all who have sift-

displayed by the German authorities
toward British prisoners especially,
is beyond doubt"
The secretary quoted articles from
the conventions adopted at The
Hague relating to the treatment of
prisoners of war and asserted that
they had been disregarded flagrantly
by German officers. He added; 81
think it only fair and right to say
that the German hospitals should be
excepted in any charges of deliberate
inhumanity. There have been indi-
cations of a lamentable lack of medi-
cal skill and in individual cases of
neglect and of indifference to suffer

On the other hand, there are STATE

universal, what is transitory from
what is eternal; to discriminate be-

full information of the serious disor-
