Hughes Speech ANSWERS Critics;
Ravals NoaO Trying to Hold Firm;
RO0seveHs Men Not So SanQpl !.
By VICTOR RoSEWATER.

Chicago, June 6.-(Special telegram If
first-hand knowledge of where Justice Hughes
stands on Americanism is what the republicans
want as essential to considering him for their
standard bearer, nothing now stands in the way.
His Washington commencement address deftly
answers all the questions without taking notice
of those who would "smoke him out" or in any
way violating his declaration that he is not seeking
any political office or interfering with the trad-
tions Of his judicial votes.
No one can discover any equivocaton in the
address and no one crticises it, except those who
decred his silence and who now that he has
broken his silence, still wish that he had kept still
so they could find fault with him for not speak
ing out What the declaration has done is to
take away from the opposition to Justice Hughes
the ammunition on which they were most relying
Almost Threat Boomerang
The near-threat in the morning Chicago pa
pers that Roosevelt would fight Hughes as the
republican nominee and would go so far as to
head a third ticket again, not at all well re-
ceived by the delegates.
II don't like that kind of talk" declared Ex-
Governor Vansant of Minnesota. ut won't help
the colonel any"
The Roosevelt managers quickly saw the point
themselves, and Immediately let be known that no
such threat was intended and that Roosevelt was
not black-listing any one. George w. Perkins
gave out his typewriter statement they were only
"for" their favorite and not against" any one.
The Roosevelt men working the republican side of
the street also disclaimed "The Colonel or No
body" attitude.

sKnrcn OF Loan KITCHENER
RAISED Largest Volunteer Army In
History Within Few Months.

HFtoFF NitulH rev m0nthes
Earl Kitchener was appointed sec
retary oi war on August 5, 1914,
few days after Great Britain's deelar-
alton Of war on Germany. He was
regarded as England's greatest sol
dier and the decision OF the govern
ment TO entrust him with supreme di-
rection Of the war was received with
unanimous approval.
As the war progressed and Great
Britain's deficiencies in certain direc-
tons, particularly in regard to the
shortage of artillery ammunition. be-
came apparent Earl Kitchener was
subjected 70 severe criticism led by
Lord Northciffe. The secretary was
charged with responsibility for fail
ure TO foresee the extraordinary de-
mand for heavy shells and as a re-
suit the ministry Of munitions was
formed, with David Lloyd George at
! Ms head.
Earl kitehener's responsibilities
werr further lessened by the appoint-
ment Of General Sir William Robert
son as chief of the imperial staff in
December OF last year. II was re-
ported at that time that friction had
arisen between Earl Kitchener and
Field Marshal French, then in COM
mand OF the British forces in France.
Shortly after the appointment OF Cen
eral Robertson, Field Marshal French
relinquished his command.
Notwithstanding the criticism di-
rected against Earl Kitchener, his
great accomplishments during the
war are recognized universally. Fore
