KANSAS CITY, Mo-. April PA
am gratified to learn that Mr.. Rookie
feller is going to take the public into
his confidence about the Colorado
strike" declared Chairman Frank P.
Walsh, of the federal industrial rela-
tions commission, when shown the
statement issued by John D. Rocke-
feller, Jr., tonight.
In statement issued to the press,
Mr.. Walsh declared that he was will.
ing to stand Mr.. Rockefeller's abuse
If the facts concerning the operations
of the Rockefeller industry can be
lean people to prevent recurrence
of the Colorado situation.
Mr.. Walsh also outlined a number
of things Mr.. Rockefeller should tell
the public when hee took It into hts
confidence.
I'm the statement which he says be
will make" Mr.. Walsh said. Il chal-
lenge him to say whether Mr.. Bowers
told the truth in his letter OF April !,
1914, in which he said the Colorado
Fuel and Iron company leads In fixing
prices and conditions of labor. NV
recollection is that at the hearing
when Mr.. Rockefeller, Jr., was asked
if the company was not controlled BY
the Rockefeller interests he replied
that Rockefeller owned about forty
per cent of the stock, and therefore
did not control IT,
Under date of June IA, 1914, Mr.
Rockefeller wrote to Mr.. Leo: 'Se'-
eral points in my memorandum, how
ever, could we'll, even more appro-
priately, be used in the letter from
Governor Ammons to President VII
son, which you are proposing as the
majors memorandum
"The public will not be satisfied un-
less Mr.. Rockefeller sets out in full
the memorandum which he desired Mr..
Lee to use in the letter from Gov
ernor Ammons to the president. The
statement should also give the name
OF the major referred to. Is it Major
Boughton of the Colorado state mill
tia? Moreover, the statement will not
be complete unless it sets out in full
tae memorandum made by MAJOR
Boughton or whoever the major was.
This will be of Importance In view
of the fact that Governor Ammons
has declared it to be a lie that Mr..
Lee furnished him any draft to Dc
used in letter to the president or to
the governor.
"In this connection, Mr.. Rock efeller
should let the public know how tho
drafts Of letters for the governor to

Lee send the matter for Governor AM

given the governor for his signature?

ter stroke bent back the north side OF

were trying to push forward the
angles southern side.
It is not at all likely that the Ger
mans planned their sudden offensive
with any other objects than the nulli-

British capture of hill number 60 and
the prevention of an ascendency IN
morale being established by the allies.
Little possibility exists that the Ger

ing a major attack with the hope OF

Announcement was made by th,
British chancellor OF exechequer dur
inc the week that 100000 British
troops are now in France and Belgium.
It is not to be assumed, however. that
this entire force is as yet being active
ly used. Otherwise the weakness OF
the British position north OF 1pres
which gave the Germans their quick
opportunity to move forward, cannot
be explained It may be that thu
munitions for large part Of the Br''-
ish army are yet below the new safe
ty limits and the men in consequence
are not being sent into action.
II is probable that an Angio-French
force has landed during the week at
Enos. on the northern shore of the
Gulf OF Saros. This port is the farth-

NEW YORK; April 24-The Ger
mans balanced, during the week inc
British gains at Neuve Chapelle ana
south of Ypres, by bending back the
nglo-French battle line from Lanst-
marck to the west bank OF the Ypres
canal. The German advance covers
between two and three miles OF t.ss
ritory along front about two mue'
wide. 1t is the most important sue
cess the kaiser's troops have won IN
the west since they drove the French
across the Aisne near SCISSORS last
January.
The chief significance of the victory
Is it's proof that the Germans stu
possess the power to develop counter
offensives. This fact emphasizes the
apparently character Of the present
deadlock. If the Germans can push
back the allies few thousands yaros
to compensate for a salient thrust IN
their own line, the helplessness OF the
military struggle for both belligerents
is strongly suggested.
Previous to the German rush foS
the Ypres canal, the British early m
the week had widened the front OF
their angle which holds the Germans
east Of Ypres. By seizing hill number

ened his Ypres battle line and was

disclosures.
Both sides took the day off to take
toll of their scars, reeuperate physi-
cally, summon reinforcements and
plan the campaign Of the coming
week. At least a week and possibly
another will be required to finish the
case.
Colonel Roosevelt spent the morn
ing closeted with his attorneys. He
will resume the stand Monday for
conclusion Of cross examination by
Barnes, attorney. William Twins. The
most tempestuous day of the trial was
expected as Ivins' plans tonight were
to reach the climax Monday with in.
structiops regarding the 1912 Chicago
convention where Barnes played a
leading part in Roosevelt's loss of the
republican nomina ton for president.
Barnes counsel admitted tonight that

Roosevelt was yet to come. They IN

Roosevelt and his lawyers tonight
were jubilant. While they would not
make any formal statement, 1t was
asserted that the colonel Is dee
lighted" with the results thus far. he
feels that disclosures have left MIN
unscathed.
Barnes friends, however, insist the
colonel himself has failed to submit
evidence legally required to support
his plea of Classification" because OF
alleged truth of libel charges. They
pointed out that practically Roose-
velt's entire testimony has been TO-
ward mitigating or reducing the $780,
900 damages claimed by Barnes, and
not in proof of the libel.
That the Barnes money claim mas
been 'mitigated' almost to the point
of complete disappearance, Is the
claim of the Roosevelt faction.
Speculation among attorneys and
others following the case, as to the
probable size Of any verdict was r1fe
tonight. Few believed 1t would be a
substantial damage award.
That nominal damages-six cents,
according to local practice-or hung
