HOSPITAL WORTHY.
|. LIBERAL SUPPORT
Bishop Theodore n. Morrison Gives
Reasons Why St Luke's Should
Be Assisted.
is DOING WORK FOR CHARITY
Davenport Prelate Shows Campaign
for S125,OOO for New Structure,
Entitled to Succeed.

Bishop Theodore n. Morrison, presi-
dent of the board of trustees of st.
Luke's hospital, Davenport, in an in
terview today, stated the exact posi-
ton occupied by St. Lukes in the COM
munity and its reason for asking the
support of the citizens in its efforts to
raise S125,000 to erect a new building
and equip it.
Bishop Morrison said:
Every one recognizes the neces-
sity for hospitals. Modern scientific
surgery and medicine render hospi-
tails absolutely necessary, and when an
institution is well equipped and prop
erly cared for, the community avails
itself of the opportunity given by a
hospital for sanitary and skilled treat
ment, such treatment as would not be
possible in the home.
Now, there are three kinds Of hos
pitfalls. There are hospitals admins
tered as part of the municipal organ
ization and cared for by taxation.
Then there are hospitals built and ad-
ministered by individual doctors
] There are also hospitals cared for by
some one of the religious organiza-
tons. Any one familiar with the sub
| ject understands the limitations of a
public municipal hospital. Usually ii
is not considered a desirable place to
go to for persons wishing kindly
sympathetic atmosphere. OF course a
private hospital debars many physi-
clans. 1t has been found as matter
of experience that the most satisfac-
is to have it under the care Of one Of
the religious organizations.
I'm large city like Chicago, almost
every denomination cares for hospi,
tai In almost every case, if not ir
every instance, the hospital has beer
built and maintained in part by gifts
received from the general public TC
which of the hospitals generous mar
gives his money has been largely E
matter Of accident. Neighborhood OIL
social acquaintance has had something
to do with it. Very often the fact thai
the man has been in the hospital him
self, or has had some relative cared
for there, and has turned his attention
to some particular hospital, but pos
sibly no institution in city like Chi
cago has received all the money uset
in building, equipping or maintaining

PRESIDENT WILSON'S WORDS OF WARNING

Washington, March 27.-President
Wilson'S warning to the American
people not to be Influenced by alarmist
reports regarding the situation which
he said were being disseminated by
sinister and INSCRIPTIONS infiuen-
ces," and in the interest Of certain
American owners Of Mexican prop
critics." and in which he reiterated
that every effort should be made to
prevent the punitive operations
against Villa from assuming in the
discussion the color of war Is as fol-
lows:
AS already has been announced,
the expedition into Mexico was or
dered under an agreement with
the de facto government of Mex
leo for the single purpose of TAX
ing the bandit Villa, whose forces
had actually invaded the territory
of the United States; and is in no
sense intended as an invasion of
that republic or an infringement
Of its sovereignty. ! have there
fore asked the several news SER
vices TO be good enough to assist
the administration in keeping this
view of the expedition constantly
before both the people of this
country and the distressed and
sensitive people Of Mexico. who

are very susceptible indeed to
impressions received from the
American press not only but also
very ready to believe that these
impressions proceed from the
views and objects of our govern
ment itself. Such conclusions, it
must be said, are not unnatural
because the main, if not the only
source of information for the
people on both sides of the border
is the public press Of the United
States.
In order to avoid the creation Of
erroneous and dangerous impress
sions in this way, have called
upon the several news agencies to
use the utmost care not to give
news stories regarding this expe-
dition the color of war, to with
hold stories of troop movements
and military preparations which
might be given that interpreta-
ton and to refrain from publish
ing unverified rumors of unrest in
Mexico.
feel that 1t is most desirable
to impress on both our own
people and the people OF Mexico
the fact that the expedition is SIM
ply a necessary punitive meas
ure, aimed solely at the elimina-
ton Of the marauders who raided
Columbus and who infest an I'M
protected district near the border
which they use as a base in MAX
ing attacks upon the lives and
property Of our citizens within
our own territory. 1t is the pur-
pose of our commanders to CO.
operate in every possible way
with the forces of General Car
rama in removing this cause of
irritation to both governments and
to retire from Mexican territory
until the object is accomplished.
1t is my duty to warn the people
OF the United States that there
are people on the border who are
actively engaged in originating
and giving as wide circulation as
they can of rumors of the most
unfounded and disturbing false
hood is obvious. It is to create
an intolerable Inflammation be-
tween the government of the Uni
ted States and the de facto gov
eminent Of Mexico for the DUR
pose OF bringing about interven-
ton in the interest of certain
American owners of Mexican
properties. This object cannot be
obtained so long as sane and hon.
orable men are in control of this
government. but very serious con-
dltions may be created, unnec-
essary bloodshed may result. and
the relations between the two re-
publics may be very much embar-
raised. The people of the United
States should know the sinister
and INSCRIPTIONS influences that
are afoot and should be on guard
against crediting any story COM
Ing from the border, and those
who disseminate the news should
make 1t matter OF patriotism

FIGHT TO Be MADE
ON ARSENALPLAN
Influence Being Brought to Bear to
Defeat Artillery Ammunition
Appropriation.

The Chicago Tribune Of this morn
ing has the following from a Wash
ington staff correspondent:
ut became known today that the
war department is greatly concerned
over the probable refusal of the house
appropriations committee to appro-
pirate 1,250, 900 for the erection of an
artillery ammunition plant at the
Rock Island arsenal.
General Crozier, chief of ordnance,
has submitted an estimate to the COM
mittee for such a plant. Recently he
went before it and in a secret hearing
pointed out that it is absolutely essen
tial to the country's welfare to have
ammunition plants west Of the Allie
gheny mountains.
with the exception Of the Rock Is
land arsenal, all of the governments
high explosive manufacturing estab-
lishments are on the Atlantic sea-
board.
bcucl al CloLicI tOlu Iuc
tee that at the present time all of the
artillery ammunition manufactured by
the government is made at the Frank
fort arsenal in Philadelphia. The ca
pacity of that arsenal is only 1900
rounds a day. 1t is impossible to en-
large it without a tremendous expend-
iture for ground.
''On the other hand, he pointed out
that for S1,250,000 a plant could be
erected at Rock Island which would
have capacity of 5000 rounds day.
zone of the chief difficulties con-
fronting the administration in its eff
fort to get plant at Rock Island is
that Rock Island has been associated
with army pork during the last few
years to such an extent that many
members Of the house are suspicious
Of any recommendation in its favor.
Congressman >Tavenner of Illinois
has assailed General Crozier on sew
eral occasions The chief of ord
nance, however, waived all personal
considerations aside and dealt with
the situation as it affects the country
at large.
"One of the desirable features of the
Rock Island site is that the govern
ment already owns sufficient land and
water power there to use in any sort
Of an establishment it might erect
The pork" referred to is not in
what the government expends for
legitimate manufacture, but in what
goes to private manufacture of NUM-
tons, as Representative Tavenner has
so conclusively shown 1t is due to
Tavenner's long fight that the wisdom
and expediency and economy of gov
eminent manufacture has been demon
strated The cry Of pork" comes
from the camps Of the manufacturers
who see the pork" slipping away
| from them.

Desperate Determination to Kill Act
in Both Branches OF Con-

Washington, March 27.-The COM
1nittee on labor has reported to the
house with the recommendation that
it be passed the Tavenner bill prohib-
iting the use of stop watches and other
Objectionable features of the Taylor
system Of so-called scientific" shop
management in government establish
ments. 1t refers particularly to arsen-
ais, navy yards and the postotfice de-
partment.
Representative Tavenner is pressing
the passage of the bill in the face Of
powerful opposition on the part Of
manufacturers associations. A bitter
struggle is promised in both house and
senate before the bill is finally passed,
The bill will have the backing of the
American Federation Of Labor.
The measure reads as follows:
Whereas certain executive de-
partments of the government are
installing in their respective es-
Establishments new systems Of shop
management, known by the gen.
eric term of scientific manage
ment." which have for their pur-
pose the attainment of the maxi
