DO justice, TEDDY'S
MESSAGE TO TROOPS
Fight Against Foes But Treat Pris,
oners Well, Says Roosevelt.

New York, Aug. 31.-Theodore
Roosevelt. at the request of the New
York Bible Society, which is trying
to put a copy of the Scriptures in the
hands of every American fighting
man, has sent the following message
through the organization to the SOL
diers and sailors of the nation:
The teachings OF the New Testa-
ment are foreshadowed in Micah's
verse: What more doth the Lord re-
quire OF thee than to do justice. and
to love mercy. and to walk humbly
with thy God"
DO justice; and therefore fight VAL
iantly against the armies of Germany
and Turkey. for these nations in this
crisis stand for the reign of MOloch
and Beelzebub on this earth. g..
Love mercy; treat prisoners well.
suCcor the wounded; treat every
woman as IL she were your sister:
care for the little children. and be
tender with the old and helpless.
Walk humbly: you will do so II
you study the life and teachings of
the Saviour.
May the God OF justice and mercy
have you in His keeping"

GERMAN ENGINEERS
DEVISE new MOTOR
Submarine Invention May Cause
Another Revolution.

Paris. Sept. 31.-German engineers
are supposed to have overcome the
difficulty of. not having an engine
that will work equally well when a
submarine is either on the surface or
submerged. An account of the dis
covery appears in the Basle Mach
richten.
In the new motor submarine the
ordinary batteries are replaced by a
battery of oxygen tanks, much small
er and lighter. The oxygen tanks and
system of fine tubes supply the
oxygen necessary to the combustion
of the fuel OF the engine. Still an
other set of tubes carry oxygen to
the exhaust pipes, where the oxygen
and the gases OF combustion combine.
Carbonic acid gas is drawn through
jacket pipes containing lime water,
precipitating the incombustible gas as
carbonate of calcium. The other gases
Of the engine, recombined with oxy-
gen. become combustible and can be
used again.
At first sight this contrivance seems
to be like perpetual motion in dis
guise. Experts in the Diesel engine,
of which this contrivance undoubted-
ly is a new type. say that the sys-
tenn as described is impossible be-
cause of the enormous weight neces-
sary for a volume of oxygen needed
to supply a submarine for three
weeks.
Although the expert has pointed
out these difficulties that must be
overcome, many persons here credit
the Germans with some new and
startlingly efficient device, the ma
ture of which is still mystery in
the entente countries.

ONLAzY SOLONS
Senator Simmons Says War
Measure Has Been Held
Up Unnecessarily.

On the verge of voting upon SEN
ator Johnson's amendment, con-
scripting eighty per cent OF the
country's war profits. the Senate
suddenly stopped work yesterday
afternoon
Senators on both sides OF this
chamber have been insisting that
we should hurry to vote on impor-
tant amendments" said Chairman
Simmons, of the Finance Commit
tee. Now when the times comes

Ave of them absent. II we lose this
day and delay work. ii Is the fault
OF these absentees."
Borah. OF Idaho. had blocked the
chance OF an immediate vote. He
was evidently anxious that all the
radicals who favor the highest
sort Of taxation should be present.
Many Of them were absent Ls Fol-
lette was in his office preparing a
speech he will make today.
Il did not anticipate this vote was
coming so soon." said Borah. Many
Senator'S who wish to vote are not
here. In order to protect them
will have to speak in order to pre-
vent the vote from coming up"
Forced by this move. Simmons
then asked the Senate to stop its
work until today.
There was a lull in the Senatorial
air yesterday. Some members talked
The Washington herald., 1917-09-01

in a more or less rambling way
about war profits. But the fact that
Borah and La Toilette. two of the
big guns, postponed speeches rather
took the edge of the situation.
Harding, of Ohio. took the posr
tion early in the day that all in
comes above 5000 to a family
should be taxed.
Bill Is Radical.

Smoot, of Utah, said that under the
original tax contemplated by the FL
nance Committee that several great
corporations would have escaped
proper taxation.
Aha" said Bankhead, OF Ala
bama, who has a substitute plan for
war profits levy. II thought that was
so. It is easy to see now that the bill
as originally drafted by the commit
tee was almost a crime

find this out some time ago." inter-
jected Borah.

mo ANNEXATI0NS"
Anglers BULGARIANS
Intend to Keep Ground Conquered
Which May Cause Breach.

Berlin, Aug. 31.-The Reichstag
resolution demanding peace with
out annexations and indemnities is
bitterly resented in Bulgaria and
threatens to lead to a breach be-
tween that country and the central
powers.
NO matter what Germany and
Austria Hungary may do, the Bull
garians are going to keep all terri
tories conquered by them" says the
Sofia correspondent OF the Lokalan-
zeiger.
"I have interviewed a number of
the leading statesmen and politi-
clans and found them all extreme
ly indignant over the action OF the
Reichstag. They regard the peace
resolution as a breach of faith and
insist that the compact made when
their country entered the war be
kept.
without exception. they declare
that Bulgaria was solemnly prom
ised all Serbian districts inhabited
by Bulgarians, together with the
Dobrudja, and that their armies will
not evacuate these territories at
a command from Berlin and Vienna.

himself in a similar manner"
