Secretary of War, at Forum,
Scores Ugliness Of Amer

SAYS GOSSIP HAS VALUE
Declares Forum Is Substitute for Re
straining Influence of Neighbors'
Talk in Small Town.

Secretary Of War Newton d. Baker had
his premier as a public speaker In Wash
ington at a meeting OF the Grover Cleve-
land Community Forum yesterday in the
Public Library.
Speaking on the subject, Community
Ideals" the Secretary scored the ugli-
ness and unsanitary condition Of Amer
ican cities He urged the development
Of the community forum in lieu of the
lost coercion Of ''neighborhood gossip, -
as restraining influence for cities and
citizens.
Secretary Baker impressed his hearers
with the sincerity of his views and hope
for the ultimate uplift Of American cities
His quiet but impressive manner in an
address OF seriousness interspersed with
intelligent humor won him the attentive
interest of a large audience.
In opening his address Secretary Baker
drew a sharp contrast in civilizations.
He compared the primitive with the mod
ern.
He contrasted the standardization Of
the natives of the Southern Philippine
archipelago with the life Of modern ten
ement dwellers. He declared that still
three-fourths OF the people Of the world
live in bamboo houses.
Scores UEIiness OF cities.
Scoring the uglfness and inssnitary
condition OF the cities Of the United
States, he said: THE United States IA
the first government founded on public
opinion. As a government cannot be
higher than its source public opinion
must be Of high ideals
But in building our cities. WASHINGTON
alone. in the whole United States, was
planned; others just happened We have
allowed our cities to grow up ugly and
unSanitary. The DeODIa IN most c4ti.,
live in layers rather than homes"
Secretary Baker called attention to the
powerful restraining influence Of the
neighborhood gossip in a small town on
boy or girl inclined to misbehave and
cited this as one Of the factors lacIinis
in themodern city. This. to an extent"
he said, is being recdfed by the develop
ment Of the community forum"
The greatest development in American
life during the past twenty-five years"
he said. is the taking OF the brand Of
corruption from American cities
Scoring modern conditions the Secretary
said, The home now has deteriorated 70

you have your bed"

DR.. Henry J. Harrison gave a report
Of the Southern Conference on Educa-
ton and Industry in New Orleans which
he attended as a representative Of the

ence unanimously indorsed the Hollis

Women With Vote Stick to Kitchen,

The theory that suffrage for women
will cause the housewife to drop her dish
pan and mop and desert the kitchen for
the stump Is a fallacy. according to Sen

has had equal suffrage for twenty-three
years, and, therefore, Senator Shafroth Is
recognized in many quarters as an au-
thority on the ballot for the fair sex.
Divorces due to woman suffrage in

HyTT ELL, what do you think

general question as we
whom they recognize from having
seen us on the screen, are tussled
and jostled through the crowd.
She's understood" said one large
lady within my hearing the other day,
"I can't say as how think much
OF her." commented another.
"Hmmm, I thought her eyes were
blue" a dozen will remark, and,
do you suppose her hair is real?'
the ncighbors standing on their left
will say, while, Wouldn't you think
she'd dress a lot fancier when they
say she's making such a great big
salary?" say the neighbors on the
right OF them.

TO squeeze my hand. 81 lost little

operators of the Union Station, face a
strike OF more than three-fourth of its
employees Refusal of the company to
meet the committee appointed by mem
bers of the car mems union, at a meeting
held saturday night, in the opinion of the

Involved in the threatened strike are
most of the employees at the big station.

ing hours, but they want extra pay for
overtime, also for Sunday, legal holidays
and for men who are required to work
twenty-four consecutive hours every two
weeks in making a change from day to
night work.
The Gompany's claim that the men
now work under practically the same
conditions as set forth in the original de-
mands is not correct.
The women car cleaners. who had only
been receiving Is cents per hour were
increased to Is cents per hour. but when
the eight-hour law became effective, these
same women suffered a reduction Of 30

More than 70 per cent of the employees
receive less than 20 cents per hour. More
than 200 receive II cents per hour"

London. April 9.-Nearly 100000 sol
diers are in the field in the Mediterranean
and Asiatic Turkish theaters of war, and
very few of them are fighting. A curious
interplay of political forces has had
much TO do with paralyzing the activities
OF great armies at a time when life and
death struggles are taking place in
Europe.
The whole subject. at this time, is taboo
In the entente press. because actual or
potential misunderstandfngs between the
members OF the entente are responsible
for the bitches that have occurred, The
entire facts win not come out until after
the war. but by piecing together informa-
ton gathered from many sources during
the past year general statement of the
position can be made which know to
De accurate In its main details
Position at Present.
The military position at the moment is
this: There is at Saloniki an army. ac-
cording to the Germans, numbering $50 900
men, of whom $1,000 are British and 200 OOO
French. At Corfu, is the Serbian army of
10000. recuperating and refitting while
the Italians have a small force at Du-
razzo in Albania. The British have. ac-
in Egypt and the current estimate of the
total strength of the Russian armies un-
DER Grand Duke Nicholas operating in
Armenia and Persia, and of the British
Iorces in Mesopotamia, is 100000 men.
This means that the entente has 900 600
men in the near eastern theater. Against
this host are arrayed six Austro-German
divisions of 10000 men in the Balkans,
10000 Bulgarians. and between 500, 900 and
6OO Turks. total of nearly or perhaps
quite 100000.
Certainly military activities of great
Importance may be looked for in the
near future from the British and French
troops. The Russians, after capturing
Erzerum, have pushed their campaign in
Armenia with great vigor. The co-opera-
ton between the allied forces however.
largely depends on the efforts OF the
diplomats to arrive at an understanding
about certain moot points.
There is a conflict of interests between
England and Russia concerning Persia,
for Great Britain will not tolerate, if
possible. the building of Russian rail-
roads that would facilitate a descent on
India. This is an old quarrel. but in view
Of the present good feeling will doubtless
be settled without friction by a partition
Of Persia. The difficulty is that Russia
is understood to desire a more favorable
status there than existed before the war
what France Desires.
France desires the coast of Syria, while
Sir Arthur Evans has let a very big cat
out Of its bag by his revelation of the
fact that by a secret treaty the entente
agreed to let Italy take certain districts
Of Dalmatia and other spoils from Aus
tria-Hungary which should racially be-
long to greater Serbia. This treaty was
the price of Italy's entry into the war.
All other questions, and there are many
others, are dwarfed by the problem of
Constantinople. A year ago. before the
attack on the Dardanelles, Britain agreed
that Russia should have the straits and
the coveted city. The attack failed, and
the whole war in the near east, as the
result of that failure. wears a different
