Eiffel Tower Is Now the Nerve
 Center of France

Eiffel Tower, the great thousand foot iron structufe which was one of the wonders of the Paris Exposition of 1889, and has since been the worlds foremost wireless telegraph station and a useful landmark for French airmen, will be twenty-six years old today, as it was dedicated and opened on April 5, 1889. The genius. Of Gustave Eiffel, the distinguished French engineer who planned and constructed the worlds highest tow CT. is now fully recognized, for the nerve-center of France It's radio station, capable of hinging messages across the Atlantic, is now in charge of, the military authorities, and it en- abIes the French capital to keep in close touch with England and Rus sia, as we'll as the French front The importance of EiffeI Tower from a military viewpoint is fully recognized by the Germans, who have tried in vain to wreck It's wireless plant with bombs thrown by airmen. The tow CT is now protected by special guns designed to bring down airmen, and the German flyers have not been able to get near the famous tower.
 When Eiffel Tower first reared it's heights into the sky it was denounced by many prominent F'renchmen as an eyesore. Distinguished artists joined in a petition against it. among them Gounods de Lis1e, Bonnat, Cop pee, de Maupassant and 1e Conte.
 The tower. constructed of iron lat tice-work, is extraordinarily light for it's bulk For many years after it was erected the belief was prevalent in Paris that the tower could not withstand a gale, and that some day it would come tumbling down. This l baseIess fear ruined the Champs de

"Red" Smith, Third Sacker of the Boston
 Braves, 25 Tomorrow

MT J. Carlisle Smith is a pretty cute monaker. and gives an air of dis-l tinct1on and eclat to even so commonsI a label as Smith Alas, for the vuI- ga1-ity of rude ball players and rrev- erent fans. Mr. J. Carlisle was never able to get by with it, and he figures in diamond history as HRed Smith The eminent t1ird-basenan of the eve of the last worlds series spread sternation and disnaay among the National League fans, is like his chief a southerner by birth and resi- dence- sRed's was born near Green vf1Ies S. e., and will be twenty-five in A6AaM9as Ga, and it was with the club of the Georgia metropolis that he broke into professional baseball
 Smith made his National League debut with Brooklyn, and in 1913 he batted 296 with. the Superbas and proved himself a fast and clever field CT Last year his work with Brook 1yn-was cratic and the report was i spread about that Charles Holiday Fbbets was willing to part with his third sacker for very fair considera- tion- Charlie Dea1, who was then Braves, was afflicted with a bad case of Charley horse, and Gaffney was looking about anx1ous1y for d man to take his place. The boss of the Braves A2d a. deal on with R1CCSDuTEh for Mike M0Wrey when he heard that 'Redss was on the market. When GaMney approached Ebbets and hint ed that he might buy Smith If the price was right MT. Ebbets could barely restrain himself from falling weeping tears of joy. That wasN just how much MT. Ebbets thought of ]. Carlisle.
 But, To, and. also, beho1ds The min ute the Brooklyn 'shas-been'' had got inside of a Brave uniform he began to sit up and take observations. The atmosphere of Boston, or something, put pep" into his work, and he be- gan fielding like house afire. Also, he developed a habit of swatting the pellet for extra bases, and before the 1914 season had passed into history he had accumulated twenty-sfx dou- fbIes, nine triples and seven complete circuits.
 It was probably the banning of the crowd that got Smiths Angora in Brooklyn Early in the 1914 season he made a. few misplays and pulled a bone or. two, and then the superba fans were down upon him like ton Of bricks They sEnothered him with observations that were far from flat tering, and J. Carlisle seemed to wilt beneath the torrid torrent of abuse. In Boston he got off to a good start, andthe bugs cheered him on his way He plugged the hole in the Brave in field caused by Deals disability, and almost from the moment he joined the Braves the work of that club be- gan to improve Smith fitted in the Brave lineup like a glove should fit the hand He gave the Braves just the impetus they needed to sweep through the National League field and climb the worlds pennant pole.
 It was tough luck for Smith that the unkind fates prevented him from being in at the finish Just at the eIose of the victorious season, with

No market advance can continue without reactions. They tend to cor rect the technical situation when it gets congested with stocks or suffers from ver-specuIation. There are dip 1omatic rocks to steer by, Therefore it is wise to keep an anchor to the windward. But we have great reason to be thankful for the progress we have made since the hard days of last winter and there is much to encourage hope in further improvement in spite of occasional setbacks.

SECRETAR REDFIELD GIVES
REPORT OF TREASURY

Washington, May I'm view of
the fact that the authorized expendi-
lures of the government exceed the
estimated revenues by more than
$l0O,0O0,OO0, special interest attaches
to the vigorous language used by
Secretary of Commerce William c.
Redheld in his last Annual Report
urging larger appropriations for his
department. His attitude on that
subject is one of special interest, be-
cause he has become one of the most
ardent of the cabinet members in de-
livering public addresses in defense of
the administration.
In his annual report for the last hs-
cal year, Secretary Redheld devoted
most of his attention to recital of
arguments showing the need of larger
expenditures and the whole of his
concluding chapter was devoted to
that subject to the exclusion Of every
thing else. The extent to which he
would go if given free reign is indicat-
ed by his statement regarding one
item of expenditure: 1--WE have gone
at the matter on a scale as futile as the
poor woman's attempt to sweep back
the Atlantic with a broom" 1t re-
quires no effort of the imagination to
picture the condition of the National
Treasury if Congress had made ap-
preparations on scale commensurate
with the ideas of the Secretary OF
Commerce.

A LANE THAT LEADS
(Glenns Ferry Ga/ette.)

(GlennS Ferry Gayette.)
Every little while Secretary OF the
Interior Franklin K. Lane. the one
bright star of the Wilson cabinet, just
as a matter of fact and without any
unnecessary demonstration does some
thing which brings to the minds of the
reading public that he is on the Job
for what good he can do. From the
very beginning of his incumbency
Secretary Lane has constantly CON
tended that the interior department
has been sinothering itself with its
super-abundance of red tape and that,
especially in the reclamation service,
there have been employed so many
managers, directors, and superintend-
ents that the mere management of the
offices has come to be considered more
important than the work the service
is supposed to accomplish. This lat
ter inconsistency is portion of what
the people at the pay-as-you-enter end
OF the reclamation service have chosen
to term "bureaucracy"-that thing
which Lane has been the first secre-
tary to recognize as a menance, and,
seeing, has tried to overcome.
AS the service stands it maintains
hal I dozen division headquarters To-
Gated mostly in large cities not i'm
medlately adjacent to the. projects.
These Offices are in charge of super
vising. engineers at salaries ranging
from $4,000 to 5000 per annum. The.
supervising engineers have general
jurisdiction over projects in their gen.
eral localities and to them the project
engineers report and with them the
project engineers consult, the system
INVOLVING many complications.
Under the new plan, which has
been arranged to knock out the ex-
lstinR departmental top-heaviness, the
city division Offices are to be abolish
ed and most of the high-salaried en-
glneers not assigned to specific pro-
Jects are to be dropped, along with
numerous clerks and assistants. In
lieu OF these division headquarters it
IS proposed to establish a central Of
nee OF the reclamation service at Dem
yer which is to be in charge Of one
man. This one man will have general
supervision over all construction work
and his recommendation will be re-
viewed by the reclamation commission
now to be reduced from five members
to three, with the final authority vest
ed IN the secretary of the interior.
