GERMAN POLICIES CAUSING q ORM
 AMONG LEADERS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

BERLIN, March b. (Nia London A storm is developing over issues in Germanys naval and foreign pol icy. Advocates of a more energetic attitude influential parliamentary i leaders, particularly Of the conser- t vative party, are endeavoring to force ! both in the reichstag and the Prus- sian an open discussion of the situa- ton.
 1 The diet leaders, who recently were reminded by the chancellor through the North German Gazette that dis cussion of questions of foreign policy ! and of the conduct of the military operations were beyond their compet- ence, have since the publication of this announcement, returned to the attack
 The commission on ways and means met today to discuss the chancellors s communication and in no chastened mood. It has not yet been decided whether their deliberatios will be re- garded as confidential but according to an inspired communication, the con- servatice leaders favor full publicity. Thinly yelled reference to the situa- tion were made during yesterdays debate in the diet on the budget of the ministry of education and ec- clesa stical affairs when the conser- vative spokesman, Herr von Der Osten, prefaced his remarks as fol- lows:
 If our enemies seek by outcries regarding Huns and barbarians to serve the political end of weakening our conduct of the war. l hope that they will find they have miscaculated It is the general belief of our people that under the circumstances, a most energetic conduct of military opera tions may be the most humane and that the policy which will bring us soonest out of the sea of blood and misery into which our old Europe has been converted will serve the best interests of the human race.'
 Hearty applause greeted the speaker.
 It is expected that the session of the reichstag may open the way for discussion which has been barred under a political truce since the outset of the war Chancellor von Bethmann- -Hollweg is exerting all his influence to prevent the dis cussion taking form which would cross the declared policy of Germany.

through the mountain passes of the Kermanshah region. it was generally held that the chief aim of the Russian operations on the extreme southern front was effectively and once for all to crush German influence and am bitions in Persia and only the most visionary critics conceived the poss4- bility of Russia's successfully travers ing the Persia mountain provinces and assuming an important role in Meso- potamian affairs.
 The latest news, however of the success of the Russians in working their way through the passes of the formidable range which acts as q nat ural boundary between Persia and Fur key shows that the Russians are in a position to convert their potential threat against Mesopotamia into q positive menace.
 The Turkish endorsements which were sent from Bagdad and Aiosul by way of Suleimanieh and Selma, to threaten the flank of the Russian forces at Kermanshah and make a further Russian advance dangerous, have been compelled to withdraw on account of British pressure from the south and Russian activity in the north, which some time ago resulted in the capture of Bitlis. The Russians therefore are now unhindered by frontal resistance against which they have advanced through all but one of the difficult passes of the mountains separating them from Mesopotamia.
 The road from Kermanshah west ward, sometimes narrowing to a mere mountain path, winding between the creSts of the high ridges of the Persian mountain province of Luristan. Along this the Russians already have pro ceeded fifty miles in the face of great odds
 A like distance along the same road which, turning southward, runs be- tween two mountain tributaries of the Dijala river to the Turkish border, stands between them and the last diff cult pass near Hanikin.
 If Hanikin is once attained, the Rus sianS will have free access to the rear of the Turkish Bagdad army, and to the British pressure from the south east upon Bagdad will be added Rus sian pressure from the north. The oc cupation of the Van region has already facilitated Russian progress in this di- rection and the Russian critics now predict that the campaign will be car ried to q successful conclusion Rus sa's part will be to strike north of Bagdad and cut the railway. severing the only important line of communica- tion by which the Turkish army is re- ceiving it's supplies

ReDubliCan A. F. Leased wire WASHINGTON, March 15.-The senate judiciary subcommittee con- sidering the nomination of Louis D. Brandeis to the supreme court com pleted it's public hearings today and adjourned until March A, when it is expected a vote on the recommends ton to the full committee may be reached.
 Departing flom senate precedents, the sub- committees inquiry has been conducted publicly, and since the hearings began February s, many witnesses have been heard both for and against confirmation. A week ago the committee closed the taking of testimony. but the hearings were reopened at the request of protest ants against the nomination.
 The last witness heard was Edward Warren of Boston. who in 1905 was
 chairman of the executive committee of the Boston Public Franchise
 League, of which MT. Blandeis was
 counsel. During the fight before the
 Massachusetts legislature that year
 on the consolidation of the Boston Gas company. Mr. Warren said his committee and Mr. Brandeis worked along harmOniously to protect the
 public interest until one day Mr. Brandeis suddenly and without ex- planation aoeared before the legisla- tive committee of the league and recommended that it vote in favor of the gas company's increasing their canitallZation two or three million dollars
 That man has wonderful mag netism' said MT. Warren, and he just swept those men off their feet. All voted in his favor except myself With the votes in his pocket he went that day before the legislative com mittee and told the committee the league was behind his recommends ton
 Later members of the executive committee repented and two of them resigned because of Mr Brandes The league haG recommended the very thing we had been fighting against all winter"
 The next day. MT. Warren stated. he ard Prescott Hall, another mem Der of the executive committee. sug- 3ested at it's meeting that it recon sider it's action.
 T remember very well Mr. Brandeis saYing, Don't cry, baby" he ad1ed.
 Mr. Warren said he heard '4r Sprague of the Massachusetts stIe board of trade, for which Mr. Bran dels had offered to appear before the legislature in the gas fight without pay, tell MT. Brandeis that it did not stand behind the increase, but that he believed that either through state ment or omission to legislate MT. brandeis had given the legislative committee to understand that the roard of trade was not opposed to the recommendation.
 After MT. Warren's testimony. Ed ward F. McCfennen of the Brandeis law firm put in evidence a letter Mr. Brandeis had written on the day in question to MT. Warren and Mir. Srrague, explaining the reasons for his action and stating that he told the legislative committee that the board of trade had not approved of his recommendation. The letter was not read. Nr. Warren said he doubt less received it, but had no recol!ec- tion uf it.

Facts are stubborn things-the
most stubborn things that obstruct
the path Of the Democratic party
in its effort to remain in national
control. For instance, when the
Democrats reduced the tariff on
leather manufactures, our imports
increased so per cent, as shown by
statistics complied by this admins
tration. The American workmen
employed in glove and boot and
shoe factories lost employment in
corresponding degree, but we bought
gloves and shoes no cheaper. New
England factory workers who lost
their Jobs quit buying so freely of
other commodities. All retail mer-
chants know this, and the Demo-
Gratis can't explain it away, for the
facts, stubborn things that they are,
are contained in official records.
