REED OF MISSOURI
 RAPS ROOSEVELT Praises Presidents Conduct of Foreign Affairs
 During War

Washington, January 31.-Senator Reed today attacked Colonel Roosevelt for his attitude toward the Wilson administration anc praised the Presidents conduct of foreign affairs during the European war.
 "It is a happy thing for this country he said, that neither extremists have been in charge of the government. a happy thing that there has been insstence on American rights and equally fortunate that there has not been some not-headed importunate demagogue in the White House who might have been persuaded to plunge this country into war in order to further his own political fortunes
 Many men are extremely brave who have no opportunity to put their bravery to the test. The peaceful banks of Oyster Bay offer the safest place in the world from which to issue challenge to war; A sharp exchange between Senator Reed and Senator Fall occurred when the lat ter interrupted the speaker to ask whether the senator thinks Oyster Bay safer place now than was Kansas City in 1S98?'
 Tn answer to the gallant knight from the southwest" replied Senator Reed, "I will say that my application was in and my only reason for not participating in the Spanish war was that no further troops were ordered from Missouri I have not paraded that fact and would not mention it now but for the contemp- tuous and wholly unnecessary insult from the senator from New MeNco."
 If the senator from Missouri desires to take that application from my inquiry he Is welcome to it. .retorted Senator Fall.

sells seeking her had proved futile. To- night before announcement of the Can fields report, fears had been ex- pressed that the boat had suffered an accident of some kind. It was pointed out, however, that if the K-5, after losing her tender and the other three K boats Sunday. had proceeded toward Key West she should be somewhere near Jupiter inlet, Florida, early to- night It was near that point at 5:30 o'clock that the Garfield reported she saw what she believed to be the Ks.

CONFIDENT OF APPROVAL

Washington, January S1.--tSpecial) Representative Burnett of Alabama is very hopeful that the newly prepared immi gration bill will not only make its way successfully, as 1t has invar- iably done through the House and Senate, but that it will for the first time receive the approval of Presi- dent.
 The bill is similar to preceding bills which were vetoed by President Taft and President Wilson, although as a whole,,i is considered milder docu- ment. In the opinion of Representa- tive Burnett the bill will soon be a national necessity because. insall prob ability, following the conclusion of the European war. the nations of Europe will dump on America not only it's lily prepared products but its unfor- tunate paupers

ESCAPES SECOND RAID

London, January 31.-Paris escaped harm in the second Zeppelin raid made on the city within two days. The official state ment on the sunday night attack declares that while the airship dropped number of bombs, no damage has been reported Most of the bombs fell on fields or open spaces.
 There has been no further additions to the list of casualties from Saturday nights raid, officially given as 24 killed and 27 injured.
 After having driven the Turks from region about 40 miles in length in Asiatic Turkey to the west of Lake Van and put them to retreat down the Mush valley, the Russians seemingly have ceased their operations in this particular vicinity for the winter.
 It is announced by Petrograd that the Russians here will be able to leave the rigors of the mountains and descend on to the plains, which are favorable for the encampment of our troops for the period of the winter.''
 Large numbers of prisoners were taken by the Russians in their drive of the Turks in addition to heavy guns, ma chine guns and other war material.
 The Russian official communication confirms previous statements that the Turks to the northwest of this region have been driven in upon the fortifica- tions of Erzerum.
 BUT LITTLE FIGHTING
 There has been little fighting of great moment anywhere in any of the war theatres except by the artillery.

Organization Is Perfected as It Has Never Been Be- fore-Army Inadequate Even for Peace Purposes
AMERICA HAS BEEN CRUELLY MISJUDGED
 BY NATIONS AT WAR
Belief That We Are Holding Off to Make Money While Others Die Shows COun- try Is Not Understood

Chicago, January 31.-The United States has made preparations for inn mediate war as far as the navy is concerned, although the present naval force is inadequate in size, President Wilson declared tonight in an address auditorium here. "We mean business" he said in speaking of the prepared ness plans of the administration.
 We have given to the present fleet of the United States an organization such as it never had before, am told by Admiral Fletcher" the President said. And we have made preparation for immediate war, so far as the navy is concerned"
 The army, the President said, as at present constituted, lis not large enough even for the ordinary duties of peace"
 REPEATS HIS WARNING
 The President repeated his warnings that no time must be lost in strength ening the defenses of the nation. He declared the government was doing ev- s erything it could for preparedness.
 ''When I see some of my fellow cit izens spread finder where the sparks arc falling I wonder what their ideal of Americanism is," the President said
 America, the President said, had been cruelty misjudged by the nations now at war.
 T know that on the other side of the water there has been a great deal of cruel nlisjudgme ent with regard to the reasons why America has remained neutral Those looking at us from 3. distance do not feel the strong pulses of ideals and principles that are in us.
 'aThey do not feel the conviction of America that our mission is a mis- sion of peace and that righteousness cannot be maintained as standard iii the midst of arms. They do not real ize that back of all of our energy we are body of idealists much more ready to lay down our lives for a thought than for dollar.
 CRUEL MISUNDERSTANDING
 They suppose, some of them, that we are holding off because we can make more money while others are dying, the most cruel misunderstanding that any na tion has ever had to face-so wrong that it seems almost useless to try to correct it because it shows that the very funda- mentals of our life are not comprehended or understood"
 Rulers, not public opinion, brought about the present war. MT. Wilson de- clared.
 'T thank God there is no man in the United States who has the authority to bring on war without the consent of the ration,' he said.
 The task of the United States, he said, has been to assert the principles of law in a world in which the principles of law have broken down.
 we are not now thinking of invasion
