BABIES NOT STARVING
Red Cross Finds Report OF Milk Short
age in Germany Poorly Founded.

Washfn gton. March 24.-Miss Mabel
T. Boardman. active head of the
American Red Cross, said today that
an inquiry is being made into the
German contention that babies are
starving in Germany because Of the
shortage Of milk.
While the American Red Cross has
made no request of the British gov
eminent for permission 10 send milk
to Germany. the representations made
by the committee. headed by Dr. Won
Mach of Cambridge, Mass. were laid
before the state department." said
Miss Boardman. We endeavored to
ascertain the facts through the state
department and our representatives in
Germany. but TIE only claim that ba-
bies were starving because Of want of
milk came from the committee.
The state department reported to
US that II had no reports OF the con
ottlous set forth in the representa-
tiOns by the committee. on the con-
tlary. cur attention was called to the
fact that Germany has heretofore pro
cured practically all Of its imported
condensed milk from Holland and
Switzerland. and that last year there
had been large exports of milk from
those two countries to the United
states, thus indicating that there was
not such = great shortage

BIG SEASON IS EXPECTED.
Many Conditions Enter Into Making
Auto Touring Popular.

According to hotel men who have
been recently interviewed throughout
New England. this season. it is pre-
dicted, will be record breaker from
the automobile standpoint, providing
weather conditions permit.
Some of the features which are
credited with making the outlook for
the season of 1915 an exceptional one
are as follows: The European war,
which absolutely bars tourist travel
from all of the countries abroad; the
splendid business condition which are
affecting all classes of industry: the
high wages being received by labor:
the closing of the Panama-Pacific ex-
position at San Francisco and the va
rious lack of incentives to visit the
Pacific states this season. owing to
the fact that the ma jority of the people
who could take such a long trip took
it last year when excursion rates made
the trip comparatively cheap one;
the fact that the New England states
have had a year of unprecedented rain
and stormy weather, and it is believed
by many that the indications point
to a dry summer in this section of the
country. with consequent ideal touring
conditions: the fact that Maine this

PLEA FOR COMMISSION
ON NATIONAL HIGHWAYS
Resolutions Asking Congressional
Action Being Submitted Through
Legislatures and Civic Bodies.

Resolutions urging Congress to create
national highways commission to in
vestigate and report upon the most
economic and beneficial method for the
federal government to participate in
the building of good roads are being
submitted by the National Highways
Associate to state legislatures,
chambers of commerce and civic organ
izations in all sections of the country.
Believing that Congress is now prac-
ticaIly committed in principle to the
policy of federal participation in good
roads construction. this movement has
been undertaken to direct such partici-
patton along the most scientific and
economic lines. The form of resolution
offered to the legislatures and cham
bers of commerce provides that the ma
tional highways commission shall sur
vey and locate a system of highways
connecting all state highway systems
by interstate trunk lines. thus provid
ing a national system of highways
which will correlate the state systems
Just as the state systems in thirty one
states of the Union now correlate and
bring to their highest value the county
and township systems.
With every good roads'' measure
that Is introduced in Congress it is
made evident that the trend is toward
a method Of federal participation which
will secure the most efficient admins
tration of the work and the most eco
nomic results. Officers of the Ma
tional Highways Association express
their confidence that, with the tide set
in this direction, they will succeed in
their effort to have federal participa-
ton in this work guided and controlled
by the counsels of an expert commits
sion.

Machine Gun Practice.

While the use of motor trucks and
armored automobiles has already been
demonstrated in actual warfare, II re-
manned for the American troops along
the Mexican border to demonstrate the
feasibility Of putting ordinary touring
cars to military use.
few days ago an Overland touring
car was driven north of Columbus. N.
:, by United States artfllerymen. A
machine gun was mounted In the tom
neau and targets fired at while the
machine was travelling and also while
at a standstill.
The test was reported to be success
full from every standpoint. it is said.
1t was found that touring car is
fully as logical and as feasible as a
truck for the purpose. The demonstra-
ton proved that the vibration of a
gun being fred did not swerve the
aim a particle. In fact. the car was
barely shaken. The objection to
cramped quarters was also conclusively
dismissed when 1T was shown that four
men could ride comfortably in the car
with the gun.
