WASHINGTON NOTES
Lack of Cooperation Caused Increas

respondence) According to Senator
Boies Penrose of Pennsylvania the
present high price and limited supply
of coal are chargeable directly to the
secretary of war supported by Secre-
tary Daniels of the navy. Senator
Penrose claims that the secretary Of
the interior, NJ. Lane, in cooperation
with the council of national defense
had persuaded the coal producers to
materially reduce their price, and ev-
erything indicated that the impending
coal shortage had been averted. But
because the navy department had
been buying West Virginia coal at
price lower than that agreed upon by
the council, the secretary of war re-
pudiated the arrangement with the
coal operators, and the whole thing
was off. Mr.. PenroSe declares that
che coal for the navy has been mined
by negroes and the lowest class of
labor from southern Europe, which
made possible the low price obtained,
but that in no other part Of the coun-
try can coal be produced at profit
for such a low figure.
Believes Missouri improvement Waste
Congressman Loren E. Wheeler of
Illinois is one of many members who
think the time has come to stop throw
ing money away on the Missouri
river. In his opinion a river that can
be dredged every day without making
a permanent channel, as his informa-
tion has led him to believe is the fact,
ought not to receive further attention
at the hands of congress. Mr.. Wheeler
is impressed with the fact that ST.
100000 spent on the river urder the
Missouri River Commission was prac-
tically wasted, as admitted even by the
friends of further improvement, and
to his. mind it is absurd to claim that
additional work on that stream is in
the nature of war measure.
A Worthy Purpose
The comprehensive report submit
ted by Senator Francis T. Warren of
Wyoming on the bill proposing to os-'
tablish the stinguished-scrvice med
al" aided materially in the prompt
passage of that measure recently
through the senate. In his report Mr..
Warren sets forth the fact that the
congressional medal Of homer can be
awarded only for conspicuous heroism
on the battlefield, and the only official
recognition of distinguished service
not in actual battle is the certificate of
merit, which can be given to none but
enlisted men. There will be a great
need during the present wa for
suitable recognition of unusually
praiseworthy acts which may be per
formed by officers or enlisted men,
whether in actual battle or aot, and it
is the purpose Of the bill tc fill that
want.
How and BY MnOm!
A refusal on the part Of the admin
istration to accept a food control bill
that provides for commission to
carry it on, or a refusal by Mr.. Hoover
to serve under a food-control bill that
does not give him unrestricted author

GRATEFUL FOR EFFORT
IRELAND THANKS THE POPE FOR
HIS PEACE NOTE.

Ireland, with her usual loyalty to
the Holy See, has been the first coun-
try to thank the Pope spontaneously
for his peace note. At meeting of
the Dublin Trades Council held last
week, Mr. J. Dunno said that the
workers of the world could not stand
idly by, when the most democratic and
Christian appeal, ever issued by SUI
preme pontiff, rings in the ears of the
nations. A resolution was passed
unanimously that 'this council well
comes the message of peace, sent to
the belligerent nations by His Holi-
ness, Pope Benedict XIV, and requests
all the leaders of Christian thought in
Ireland to give their earnest support
to the non-partisan effort to restore
to the world an era of international
freedom and charity" Copies of the
resolution have been sent to the arch
bishops and bishops of the Catholic
Church and to the representatives of
all the sects throughout Ireland.

The extracts printed below, from a
letter written by an eminent Massa-
chusetts judge to his soldier son, are
now being sent by the United States
government to men newly drafted for
the national army and to volunteers,
in the hope that it will serve as an
inspiration to them in the struggle
against Germany.
Concord, Mass, Dec. Is, 1862.
My dear Boy:

when we are sending you your nit

affectionate counsel from home
One of your first duties as soldier
will be.to take all the care you can
of your health. The firmer that is,
the better you will be able to do any
service, or undergo any fatigue, re,

health. you must try to lead as regu,

pcsure where either is necessary OF
called for. Take every proper occa
sion for bathing your whole body and

THE IRISH CONVENTION
MEETING HELD IN CORK-A SPIR-
1T OF FRlENDLINESS is SEEN
IN THE PROCEEDINGS.

The Irish convention reassembled
in Cork on a recent Tuesday.
Though no definite arrangement yet
has been reached with the U1stermen,
it is said that the speeches of some
of their leaders, couched in very elo-
quent and friendly language, have
given good grounds for hope of a
peaceable settlement.
There was some apprehension of
opposition to the convention on the
part of Sim Feiners in Cork, but
John Neil and Arthur Griffiths, the
Sim Fein leaders, urged their follow
ers in that city to follow the example
of their Dublin compatriots and let
the convention alone
About ninety delegates attended the
first sitting with Sir Horace Plunkett
in the chair. At the luncheon given
by the Harbor board, Chairman Plum.
kett and other delegates spoke guard
edly but hopefully of the conventions
prospects.

Rev. Thomas Gavan Duffy
SON OF NOTED USTRALIAN
PREMIER WILL LECTURE I'm 4
ST. PAUL.

The Rev. Thomas Gavan Duffy, of
Velantangal Tiruvannamalai, of the
Diocese of Pondicherry, India, will
lecture next week in several parishes
and educational institutions in the
Twin Cities. The Reverend lecturer,
because of his illustrious parentage,
needs no introduction to those who
have read of the famous Australian
Premier, Sir Charles Gavan Duffy
Father Duffy is the son of the famous
Irish leader and writer of the '48 peri
cd, Charles Gavan Duffy, whose paper
The Nation" was the means of arous-
ing new spirit in the Ireland of that
time, and was an inspiration for
Davis, Mitchell, Mangan, Lady Wilde
and the other brilliant lights of that
remarkable period. The appearance
of Father Duffy recalls pictures of his
father whose literary talents he has
also inherited. He has recently pub
lished a book "Yonder," having to do
with missionary experiences and
which has received the most favorable
criticism from reviewers.

day. He made copies of parts Of
l. Enfant's plan, and drew map of
Washington in 1895 in which he laid
off squares. This plan was approved
by the Commissioners. According to
this plan the city has been built.
Major Charles L'Enfant drew the first
plans, and James Reed Dermott, ''im.
proved" them. I
L'Enfant, being appointed by the
President, surveyor of the intended
city, believed he should receive orders
from the President only, and not be
subjected to the three commissioners,
Daniel Carroll, Thomas Johnson and
DR.. Daniel Stuart. A disagreement on
this point arose, and L'Enfant resigned
and Major Andrew Ellicott was APP
pointed. On March IA, 1892, the Com
missioners notified Major Ellicott, that
James Reed Dermott had been se-
.lected as his assistant. Dermott was
officially appointed on March 26 At
meeting of the Commissioners April

Italian Catholic General
HEAD or FORCES Is THE Ac-
KNoWLEDGED LEADER OF
ITALY-HE Is "A PRACTICAL
CATHOLIC.

The head of the Italian army, Gen.
Cadorna, is practical Catholic. A
staff correspondent of the New York
Times writes of him:
The Italian Generalissimo is per-
haps the least known of all the allied
war chiefs, certainly the least photo
graphed and least interviewed, for to
date he has never been interviewed
at ALL General Cadorna is Count Ca
dorna, and in Italy there have been
the Counts of Cadorna for hundreds Of
years. But in the present case the
title Count is completely submerged
by that of General, the nation at large
considering that to be the far more
important of the two. He is the ac-
knowledged master of the Italian
armies and his rule is absolute. /. :.
He never sees anybody except his
king, his chief-of-staff and few spe-
cial officers. The most prominent Wis
itors to the Italian front get brief
glimpse of the Generalissimo with the
greatest difficulty. He lives in an old
house near the Commando Supreme,
where he does all his work. He is a
strict Catholic, like the French Gen
eral, Castelnau, and has a private
Mass every morning of his life.
The Italian army loses nothing in
care because it's general believes in
God, has the gift of faith and assists
at the divine sacrifice of the Mass
every morning.
