First Address of Trip Made

son Indicated plainly today he is no
longer ''too proud to fight"
Speaking before 1000 clergymcn of
many crecds, he declared 'T always
accept, perhaps by some impulse of my
native blood, the challenge to a fight. 4"
Moreover, he added that with him it
was not cease Of a knock down and
drag out, but Of putting up the best
reason why your own side should
survive.
In announcing his doctrine concern.
ing peace and bclligcrency, the presi.
dent obviously attempted to eliminate
from further discussion the "too
proud" phrase, voiced in his Indian
apolis speech last year-a phrase which
resulted in greater criticism here and
abroad than any other utterance he has
made.

tagonists," he went on. 'I hope !

tion Of converting them. r wish that
the best argument and the right pur-
pose shall prevail.

beats its nurse and cries for the moon;
the old man sips cruel humbly and
thanks God that nobody beats him.

This achievement together with the rap
idly growing gold balance, increased
use of dollar exchange, successful ne
gotiatiOn of loans which have helped
to readjust Sterling exchange and fl
nance munition orders, not to mention
loans to Argentine and the Canadian
provincial governments, have afforded
some justification for the idea that the
United States is in process of replac.
ing Great Britain as the world IS
banker.
"But although much has been done
to adapt American finance to the op-
portunities provided by the Federal re.
serve act and by tine war. little has
been accomplished toward discharging
the functions of financing the countries
which are open for the investment of
American capital. Until we are ready
to take advantage of the opening made
for us by the drying up Of the invest
ment streams of Europe, the title of
world s banker, will not pass to the
western hemisphere, NOR will practi-
cal Pan Americanism become a reality

national foreign trade policy which
would prepare the United States for the

JOHN H. LEWIS CUTS
DOWN SALARY ROLL
BRIDGE DEPARTMENT
Holmes and Saddler, Of Can
tines Force, to Resign
Februaryl

After the supreme court decree was
entered, defining the duties of the
State Engineer in highway matters,
Messrs. II. II. Holmes and 2. w. Sad.
dler of the bridge department kindly
offered to resign to facilitate any re-
organization, which seemed advisable,
according to the statement of John H..
/ Lewis today.
/ Tt appearing that some economy
would result by change, and that the
present field force was too large in
comparison with the drafting and de-
signing department, therefore, it has
been decided to discontinue the posi-
tion of Mr.. Saddler, as paving in
l spector
S. II, Graf, head of the department
of experimental engineering at Corval-
lis has had much experience in the
testing of materials used in hard sur.
faced roads and for bridges Negotia-
tions are under way to secure his as
sistance, only when called upon by the
department on road surfacing prob
lens, thus saving the continuous en-.
ployTcnt of a special expert, when the
work in this branch is very limited.
Negotiations are under way to Sc
cure the services of Joseph Weare in
the bridge department at $l75 per
month. Mr.. Weare has had wide ex.
perience in bridge design with a mum
Der of bridge companies in the East
as contractor on steel and concrete
structures in the United States, and
Canada, and handled the steel for the
contractors on the Hawthorne bridge in
Portland as we'll as on several buildings.
He has been employed for some time in
the cooperative surveys of the State
Engineer department, making plans
and estimates for steel and concrete
'structures in connection with irriga-
tion projects This work will be fin
ished in a few weeks and this change
was merely decision as to who of the
present force should be retained.
l., w. Metzger who for several years
has been in charge of the preparation
of detailed plans for steel and con.
crete bridges will continue in the de-
| partmcnt.
Thus by the change Lewis is enabled
to secure the services of experts only
when they arc needed for special work
and at such other times their salary
does not continue and Weare receives
$l75 per month where Holmes was
paid 5000 and Saddler was employed at
$l25 per month.
The shakeup in the state engineer IS
office began yesterday when state en-.
gineer, John II. Lewis, asked for the
designations Of II. IT. Holmes and j
W. Sadler who have been holding Of
fi"e under chief deputy, f. |. Cantine.
Holmes was the bridge engineer and
Sadler Il bridge inspector and hard sur.
face pavement man.
1t is expected that Holmes place
will he filled later. He received u sul.
ary Of 5000 month and Sadler $l25.
This is tho first of the changes in the
office force that has been made since
John H. Lewis won out in the courts
"od ""e held TO be the legal head of
the Highway department.

The bridge over the Mississippi
river on the highway connecting N.Y.
more and Bemidji is in dangerous
condition and a new bridge must be
constructed.
The city council desires to con-
struct a bridge over the inlet and in
stead Of having the street constructed
in it's present location, wants street
to follow the lake shore to Second
street and then cross the railroad
tracks to Bemidji avenue. This
route would do away with the dan
gerous railroad crossings at the pres
ent location. Much complaint has
been heard from farmers living near
Nymore that the switching of trains
near the present crossing frightens
their teams.
The Minnesota & International
railroad, however, does not want the
present route Of the road changed,
at least it does not want the street
to cut across their tracks at Second
street. The project of extending the
street up the lake. to Second street
and then across the tracks at Second
street to Bemidji avenue would make
the present railway yards valueless,
say railroad officials.
Action must be taken in the mat
ter Immediately. Several thousand
dollars from the county is available
for the construction of bridge, over
the Mississippi, but must be used this
year. If. it is not used this year it
will revert back to the county.
The city council last evening ad-
journed it's meeting to next Monday
evening when the bridge matter will
be thoroughly discussed and some &C
ton taken. Every citizen is urged to
attend the meeting next Monday
night, especially those who signed pc
titions for the street to- go. one way
or the other.
Between now and, Monday evening
the Pioneer would be pleased to re-
ceiver signed: communications in re-
gard to- the route of the street. We
believe that the council is DESTROYS
of securing the best route and to
abide by the decision of the people.
What is your opinion, Mr.. Citizen?
Write, to the editor of the Pioneer
and tell him.
