WASHINGTON. July 16.-The fol-
lowing interview appeared in recent
date Of the Washington Morning Post:
Western Republicans appear TO be
taking more interest in politics than
their eastern brethren. This is due
perhaps. in the opinion OF James j.
McGraw. Republican national COM
mitteeman for Oklahoma, to the
greater distance from the Atlantic sea-
board, the center OF the war news.
Everybody in the west, of course.
is behind the government, and every
body is contributing in every manner
possible 10 effective participation of
the United States in the war said Mr.
McGraw at the Willard. This is evil
denced. think. by the fact that the
inland states have more than sub
scribed their allotment OF the Liberty
loan and the Red Cross fund. and
have in many instances more rapidly
filled their quota for the regular army
and the national guard. There was
some opposition TO the draft at the
beginning. but that has disappeared,
now that the nation is actually at war
However. we find time 10 think
politics and sometimes TO discuss poll
ties continued Mr.. McGraw. Out
our way We are convinced that the
Republican party has regained its old
prestige and that II is stronger today

oKMUI.GEE, Okla, July ls.-
Great confusion and much incon-
venience IS being caused TO house
holders, merchants and visitors in the
city by the failure OF citizens TO num-
ber their residences according 10 the
new street numbering ordinance
passed by the city commissioner
about two months ago. The new or
dinance fixes Sixth strict as the north
and south dividing line and Grand
avenue as the east and west dividing
line.
Since the ordinance was passed
many people have changed the num-
bers on their homes. many have not
changed the numbers. The result is
confusion OF the most acute sort
There are now many duplicate num-
bers on all streets and a stranger
seeking some numbers in the city is
up against problem as bad as the
proverbial quest for the needle In the
haystack.

LONDON. May rs. - Herbert G..
hoovers declaration in America that the
war may continue from two to Ave years
longer has made a deep impression here
IL is universally believed the United
S'Wes must first tide the Allies over
their rood. economic and shipping d,ff-
cut'es' ana must then contribute a great
torce or trops to administer the coup de
grace TO the Central Powers. n is
expected the enemy will BY that time he

american troops in large bodies to the
allied forces.
The military correspondent OF the Pal,
MdH Gazette shows that Great Britain
mas now raised men for the army and
navy in an extent almost equal to
Frances effort. slightly better than
italy's and far better than Russia has
yet done. Another half million men
must be had. France, Italy and Russia
connot provide them, and therefore
Great Britain must do so, and i'm
mediately.
The correspondent enumerates ten
reasons for casting every resource into
the fishting instantly and says the Ger
mans have a new class of recruits com

The new harvest also, he says. will re-

making material progress and the time
Of passage there still is in doubt
All reductions In the House measure
mittee. Two remain to be formally
adopted. but there probably will be nc
objection to them. Those accepted to.
day were:
For combating diseases Of live stock
and enlarging production. reduced from
$2.0lO.O00 to $SS5.000; for seed distribu-
fion and eradication of insects and pla nj
diseases. reduced from $6.5OO,0OO ia
S6.11s,000. and for increasing food pro
duction and eliminating waste recon-
mend that the food survey appropriation
be reduced from Sa.500.O00 to S2,522,O 900
and the miscellaneous section from
$4,000, 900 to 37sS.2O0.
Persons employed in carrying out the
work provided for in the bill would be
liable to military service under an
amendment offered by Representative
Mckenzie of Illinois and adopted. The
proposal followed repeated charges by
Republicans that unless it were specified
that such work could not be regarded
as a cause for exemption the bill would
furnish 1900 new positions In which
Democrats could make themselves Sc.
cure from conscription.
Little progress was made in the Sen.
ate, although virtually the entire day
was devoted to debate on the measure
