DELEGATE LINTHICUM
HAS A GOOD BILL.
lis Object is TO Reduce Expenses Of
Motor Vehicle Commissioners
Office

Delegate Linthicum has introduced
in the House of Delegates a bill OF
Statewide Importance.
1t transfers from the Motor Vehicle
Commissioner all power and duties TO
the State Road Commissioner and Gre
ates the chairman of the State Roads
Commissioner an ex-officio Motor Veh-
icle Commissioner and authorizes the
State Roads Commission to name Que
Of its officials as assistant Motor Veh-

It further provides that all money
collected by the Commission through
licenses, etc, shall be kept in a sep
arate and distinct fund, and after
payment of the expenses incurred as
Commissioner of Motor Vehicles, the
balance shall be paid monthly into the
hands of the State Treasurer.

to cut out the large expenses of the

He believes that the work, which is
only heavy at the beginning of each
license year. can be easily taken care
of by the State Roads Commission
and its large force of employees, and the
state thereby saved very consider
able sum of money and yet receive just
as good service and perhaps better be
cause the employees of the State Roads
Commission are scattered throughout
the State on all the good roads, and can
easily be developed into force to CO

tomible laws.

SAYS MONROE DOCTRINE
REQUIRES A LARGE NAVY.
Calls Attention to -Four Big Foreign
Problems Which the Nation Has
to Face.

We must either get ready TO defend
the Monroe doctrine or surrender il.
said Representative r. D. Fess. Of
Ohio. in his address before the annual
meeting OF the Sons Of the American
Revolution, at Rauscher's. Washing
ton, on Thursday evening
He spoke on THE Significance of
the American Revolution" He also
pointed out that the navy. the first line
OF defense OF this nation must be given
the first and best thought OF the Amer
ican people in looking to the future.
In the course OF his address Mr.. Fess
traced the development Of the Ameri-
can Government to the present time,
declaring that it is now the richest
prize in the world" Hesitating a mo-
ment. he continued: 1T is the most
/ undefended in the world"
Four situations must be met by the
American people. he pointed out later,
these being the Japanese problem in
California. iii Mexican problem. the
quarrel with Great Britain and that
with Germany and Austria.
The Mexican problem and the quar-
rel with Great Britain over what is
contraband are the two questions en-
crossing Mr.Fess' mind he pointed out
As soon as the European war is over
he believes the nations viii call upon
Mexico for big indemnity for outra-
ges during the present revolution.
Mexico will be unable to pay and the
next demands viii be for coaling sta
tions and othe territorial concessions
Then the American Government will be
face to face with the emergency oi
either defending the Monroe doctrine
or surrendering it.
Great Britain is running things with
a high on the seas, Mr.. Fess said, and
sooner or later there must be some
sort of settlement.
Rear Admiral Colby NJ. Chester, who
presided, later presented Mrs. William
Cunning Story, president nt-general OF
the Daughters of the American Revolu-
ton, who, in the course of an address
comended the Sons of the American
I Revolution in their work for the Amer
icanization of aliens through an educa-
tional system which has been adopted

MILITARY COLLEGES HAVE
HEARING BEFORE COMMITTEE
Urges Legislation Enlarging Federal
Governments Cooperation With
State Militia.

The executive committee of the As
sociation of Military Colleges and
Schools of the United States. of which
DR.. Thomas Fell, President OF St.John's
College. is chairman, asked the House
Military Afairs Committee today for
legislation enlarging the Federal Gov
ernment's cooperation with the State
military institutions of the country
The attention of the committee was
drawn TO the fact that this system Of
institutions has been giving for many
years military training to many thons-
ands of the best type OF young Ihen
in our country.
The value OF the buildings and other
equipment Of these schools and col
leges. not including Land Grant Col
leges, is over s14 900 GOO. and the num-
Der OF students in attendance little
over ten thousand
If war should come, il is certain
that a volunteer army will form the
major part of our defense. and to pro-
vide an adequate army at least 10000
officers and instructors Of volunteers
would be required.
Gen. Franklin Bell when Chief OF
STAFF. said that some of these schools,
in which he mentioned ST Johns as
one, produce graduates who. for most
practical purposes. are just as good as
those from West Point
He said they may not be quite as
highly trained from a technical
standpoint but it is difficult to discover
any difference in most practical essen
tials, for duty with the line"
ST. Johns has already about fifty OF
it's graduates serving as officers in the
Regular Army, and. if there had been
more vacancies available for appoint
ment from civil life, the number would
have been much larger.
It is believed that the committee was
strongly impressed by the statement
made TO them regarding these military
schools and colleges.

WILSON AND DANIELS
BITTERLY ATTACKED.
National Security League Speakers De.
nounce Naval Program and
Foreign Policy.

Secretary Daniels naval program was
2ssailed as weak, and the country's
foreign policy was attacked as having
created situation where an Amer
lean citizens life of late had scarcely
enjoyed the consideration accorded
that of a turkey buzzard" by speakers
at Thursdays session OF the National
Security League Convention. says an
Associated Press dispatch from Wash
ington.
This is not time TO mince words,
declared President S. Stawood Menk-
en-. in his opening address; but to
state coldly the facts so as to let the
country know who are for the country
first as distinguished from those who
are for themselves.
Secretary Daniels program is weak,
he said, and the navy he recommends
will not be built until his plan for ten
years. Any program which leaves the
securing of a navy TO the chance OF
event for ten years. under present war
conditions. he said, is radically wrong.
"The Congressional situation is also
menacing,'' he continued. because the
House majority ieaoef Is OppoSSu "
the Presidents plan and finds support
in William Jennings Bryan. To my
mind. it is merely another proof of Mr..
Bryan's notorious inability for direct
or hard thinking.
THE appeal to Washington no long
er stays the barbarian hand" declared
Frederic c. Coudert, of New York. An
American'se life of late has scarcely
enjoyed the consideration given the
turkey buzzard Neutral rights be-
come a mere name when neutrals can
not or will not combine to maintain
them and the voice of an unarmed
hesitant United States may carry lit
tie more weight than the querulous
protest of Persia or Peru
David Jayne Hill declared that "eyen
now our pacifists friends are beginning
to realize that in the presence of can
non, machine guns, entrenched rife
men and the tempest of deadly gases
/ their reasoning, however logical, is in

MUST RECORD
 AFF|DAv|TS

In an important decision handed down by Judge Brown, of Valdez, in the United States district court,
 it was stated that owners of claims must file their afIidavits of labor within ninety days from the end of the year in which the work was per formed. It was the opinion of many prominent attorneys and claim own, CT that as long as the assessment work had been done, the filing of the affidavit was not necessary The decision rendered takes the opposite view, and should be carefully re garded as a guide in recording worl, done in this division.
 The case in which the decision was given showed that the original owner had done his asse sment work but failed to file within the allotted ninety days. The claim was then staked by second party and an ejectment suit was entered. whicl was upheld by the court. It is prob able that the case will be appealet to a higher court and definite settlement reached.

 To Stop Looting
GA sociated Press)

FL PASO, Tex, Nov. 30.-D De- layed) Refugees arriving here tell of having seen the great Rancho Villa himself, as he rode through the streets of Chihua- hua after he had captured it from the CarranZa troops. And, furthermore, they tell storiea of having seen Villa sh ot two of his own followers whom he caught footing as an example to others who might be intending to disobey his orders. He shot the men, it is said, from the back of his horse and with revolver.
 Villa shows no signs of hay ing been badly wounded, as has been reported He walks with out crutches, and there is no sign of the limp he is reported to have had as the result of a wound sustained last summer. The only noticeable difference in the appearance of the bandit, to those who have seen him be- fore, ia the fact that he has shay ed off his moustache.
