Maryland Plan
BERLIN TO BE THE
CONNECTING POINT

BALTIMORE. Sept. 27.-The State
Roads Commission at a meeting to-
day will award a contract for build
ing a road northward from Berlin to
the Delaware line. where connection
will be made with the DUPONT boule-
ward now under construction through
lower Delaware. Bids for the con-

or will be ready for action by the
commission today. Other contracts
will also be awarded.
When completed the road will be
a new outlet for the eastern section
of the Eastern Shore. The DUPONT
boulevard is being rapidly pushed
About fourteen miles have been com
pleted. The boulevard will be a trunk
line, passing through the heart Of
Delaware. connecting with the roads
already built in Kent and New Castle
counties, and thence to Wilmington
and Philadelphia. The Maryland end
will extend from the Delaware line
to the Virginia line. or this section
the link between Berlin and POGO
moke City has been improved for two
or three years. The unimproved
links are between Berlin and the
Delaware line, for which the contract
will be awarded today and between
Pocomoke City and the Virginia line
for which the contract has already
been awarded In Virginia there are
improved sand roads
The dupont boulevard is a philan-
thrOpic enterprise, the gift OF General
I. Coleman DUPONT. Because of OPP
position and legal obstacles the con-
struction of the road he's been delay
ed for five or six years. So strenu-
Gus was the opposition to the pro-
ject in Sussex county that the case
was carried to the United States
Supreme Court Mr. Dupont being the
winner. The appropriation by the
Maryland Legislature has been avail
able for four years, awaiting con-
struction of the Delaware road.

wilson Dared TO
DENY HUGHES CHARGE
Challenges Administration
to Say Huerta Was Not
TO be Driven Out
GREAT CROWD
CHEERS SPEAKER

CLEVELAND. Ohio, Sept 27.-
Charles 4. Hughes last night chal-
lenged the administration to deny his
charge that John Lind was authorized
by President Wilson in 1914 to say to
the Minister from foreign Power to
Mexico" that Huerta would be put
out" OF the Presidency OF Mexico il
he did not voluntarily get out.
Mr.. Hughes issued his challenge in
a speech here before an audience in
the Central ArmOry. In the same
speech Mr.. Hughes lauded Myron r.
Herrick, sitting on the platform with
him, for the manner in which he dis
charged the duties Of Ambassador to
France in the early days OF the war
and declared that the appointment Of
a man to succeed Mr.. Herrick "in a
time of great emergency" would
ever remain blot upon the present
administration.
Mr.. Hughes was welcomed by
crowds AT the station and along the
streets. The armory. where he spoke
was filled TO capacity and many were
turned away.
In his second address at Toledo and
in his speech here, Mr.. Hughes re-
newed his attack on the administra-
tion for the Adamson law and de-
clared that it was the duty of the ex-
ecutive to stand like a rock for
the principle of investigation before
legislation and not to surrender to
force At both Toledo addresses and
here, he was cheered and applauded.
Mexican Policy Attacked.
Mr.. Hughes challenge to the ad-
mil fnfa .r Il al
on the administration for its Mexican
policy.
I'VE cannot maintain our just infiu-
ence on this hemisphere in connec-
tion with our sister republic unless
we are correct in our international
policy" he said THAT is the de.
plorable thing about the conduct OF
our affairs in Mexico. We have fol-
lowed no Ineligible policy. We have
not justified ourselves to those ac-
quainted with international law We
have not satisfied our ideals. We
have not won the friendship, but
rather lost the friendship of those
who are in the sister republic of
Mexico torn by disturbance.
Only the other day we had a very
clear statement of the principle that
should govern us in this matter and
in similar matters. II is a statement
which comes from the head of the ad-
ministration, and it is very clearly
put.
1T says, referring to Mexico: We
have professed to believe that every
nation, every people has the right to
order its own institutions as it will
and we must live up to that profes-
sion in our actions in absolute good
faith That is the principle l deep
ly regret that that principle was not
followed.
Il have here the statement Of the
policy of the administration as it was
set forth in the early part of April,
1914.
John Lind was authorized to make

the State from the federal govern
ment next year and the bulk OF this
amount will also be devoted to the
contemplated highway with the State
contributing a share equal to the
money advanced from Washington.
The road will probably not be com
pleted for year after construction
Is begun and the total cost Will be
between $3.50 900 and 100000.
Congressman Sydney Il. Mudd. OF
the Fifth district. is the father OF the
defense highway plan. He introduced
q bill in Congress appropriating $780,
600 for this work, and on the strength
of his action the Maryland legisla-
ture last year appropriated a similar
amount contingent upon the federal
appropriation Mr. Mudd abandoned
his own bill this summer, to back the
general federal air fund, realizing that
Maryland could be aided as well
through this plan as by the special
congressional appropriation.

this statement to a minister repre-
senting a foreign power in Mexico
'Huerta will lbe put out if he does not
get out. That is the preference of
the President that it be accomplished
by domestic means if possible. but
if it cannot be done by domestic
means other means adequate for the
purpose will be resOrted to-
''That is a declaration of personal
war upon Huerta to be carried to the
conclusion of elimination. despite the
statements that we have made and the
representations that we were to recog-
nize the sovereignty OF Mexico and
not attempt TO interfere in the con-
duct Of her affairs.
Now I referred TO this the other
night and a leading organ in New
York city. which is a very strong sup
porter of the administration, at once
inquired through its representatives
whether or not that statement would
be denied According 10 the report in
this newspaper in New York, it was
said that the charge would be answer
ed by the Secretary Of War. perhaps.
or by the Secretary of the Navy It
did not say that it would be denied.
Made the ambiguous statement that il
would be answered. have read that
statement OF what John Lind was au-
thorized to say to a foreign minister
and I now challenge the administra-
ton TO deny that that authorization
was given"
On his way here from Toledo, Mr..
Hughes delivered short speeches at
Port Clinton. Sandusky and ElyTia. In
these addresses and in his speeches
here last night he dwelt largely upon
his views regarding protection of
American rights, industries and Sc
curity.

We frankly confess that of the two
conceptions we consider the former
more conducive to happiness, to re-
serve, and to choice family life. This
habit of parking every American
street is doing a good deal to destroy
the flavor of American home life. This
habit of trying to make every yard
something which the passing pedes-
trian or driver can enjoy the con-
temptation of is doing a good deal to
check the indulgence in out door life
which families would appreciate if
they were not so obviously in the street
and a part of it.
1t may look fairly well to have eve
ry residents parking and front yard
look like his neighbours but it certain
ly destroys originality, and privacy,
and curbs the development of any tai
ent for making interesting and unus-
ual homes.
The high hedges in Victoria beyond
which the comfortable English folk
take tea on their secluded lawns are
infinitely more of satisfac-
ton to the property owner than the
front yard which connects without a
break with the mans next door.
The old fashioned fence it is now
the custom to decry, but the American
people will put it back some day when
they develop or re-develop sense of
the sacredness of the home life, and
Of living life more reserved than that
which seeks to take all out doors into
it's confidence.
One of the things which makes Cal
fornia cities SO painfully tedious to
visit is the terrible monotony of one
very correctly paved and parked street
after another. If you see date palm |
n one front yard, you will see its
counterpart not only in the next lawn
tut in hundred upon hundreds of other
awns. If there is a hedge of Gala
lilies in one yard, presto, every other
'erson who lives on that street must
)lant Gala lilies. The same with
he Dorothy Perkins roses, the red
the lobelia, and the Shas-
a daises. The traveller soon feels that il

strip of yard or parking that was not
the exact copy of million of it's fell

pletely and enduringly happy. We well
remember the thrill of joy which a
NEATLY fenced yard gave us in Pas
adena where there was for once an
obvious attempt to get away from the

Variety in planting yards and park

exquisite, but they should not be the

his own castle in which he is lord of
