Gerard declined where upon the officer declared to him that if he refused the officer must assert that the persons referred to were not telling the truth.
 At the request of the British govern ment MT. Gerard made an investigation last fall of the Wittenberg camp. His report was made public by the British of- fcial press bureau on November 21 He stated that his investigation had dis closed conditions even more unfavorable than he had been led to expect. In addi- tion to the statements referred to in the German reply the ambassador said the entire atmosphere of the camp was de- pressing, that some of the men were without overcoats and that sanitary con ditions were reported by prisoners to have been indescribably bad earlier in the war, an epidemic of spotte& typhus having broken out These conditions, the ambassador added. hsA been im- proved greatly.

missioner W. F. Mcknight. George r..
Belding of Hot Springs, and Adolph

from Vicksburg, Miss, where they
went to consult Maj. Harold c. Fiske
Of the United States engineering
corps on the subject of location of the
proposed $2O.000,000 government nj
tTate plant
They are very much discouraged by
the prospect. While Major Fiske
could give them no definite answer,
his mission being only to investigate
possible sites. he was most favorably
impressed with the advantages offered
by Arkansas The site suggested is
on the Ouachita river at a point about
ten miles north of Hot Springs. An
elaborate survey naS been made OF
the river with view TO the establish
ment of navigation from Camden to
Arkadelphia. and frequent reference
is made in the reports to the poten-
tial water-poWcr. 1t is pointed out
thai this is adequate for some great
industry.
Mr. Mcknight will attend a meeting
of Group 5. of the Arkansas Bank
ers' association, at Hot Springs, next
Saturday to lay the matter before the
representative fnanciers of the state.
If their support can be enlisted, it
will have great weight in properly
presenting the advantages of the Ar
kansas site to- the war department.
A committee is to he sent to Wash

with the war department on the sub.
