The World Moves.

A certain downtown business man,
who is up to date enough to drive a
motor a for business purposes, but
who disclaims any desire to be known
as a speed demon, was observed to
shake his head and mutter to himself
as he slid his car into the last space
left along the block. "Times have GER
tainly changed" said he to a friend
on the sidewalk, "and the ways of the
traffic policemen with them. Why,
only five or six years ago l drove a
little horse to a family surrey. The
limit of speed of the animal at a swing
ing trOt was not more than six miles an
hour. One evening going home in a
hurry I dared to drive across Wash
ington street in a jog trot. The traffic
mar promptly called to me to slow
down to a walk while crossing. Just
now I vas coming across at the same
place about ten or twelve miles an
hour, and the copper yelled: We'll,

way accompanying the injunction

phasis to official impotence at the

II DIFFERENCE.

Two men spoke from the Demo-
cratic side of the senate chamber
Saturday in a way to attract atten-
ton. The first was Mr.. Stone Of
Missouri, who persistently before we
entered the war was sympathetic
with Germany. "Now that we are in
the war;" he said, "the only thing to
do is to smash the kaiser and his
government"-"but we wouldn't be
in this position if our own govern
ment had acted wisely; we can make
peace now any day."
The second was John Sharp Will
liams of Mississippi, who also wanted
to "smash the kaiser" without any
''buts" or "ifs" Instead of the 'buts"
and "ifs" he said:
"The president travelled the whole
gamut up and down. He allowed this.
nation to suffer humiliation after hui
initiation, shame piled upon shame
grazed the very edge of cowardice-
because his heart beat in unison with
the cause of a just and lasting peace
Which is the truth.
There is all the difference between
these two senators on this issue that
there is between two parties in con-
gress, known neither as Democratic
o Republican, in relation to wal
legislation.
The great Mississippi senator spoke
with his face to the front and his
thought to the front, and he is so
acting on the food-control and all
other vital war measures. The Mis-
souri, senator spoke with his face to
the front but with his thought and
his spirit barking rearward, and he
is so disposed to act on the Feed-Con-
troll Bill, which he virtually calls a
of Kaiserism.
There are a number of men in con-
gress like the Missouri senator. They
are identifying themselves from day
to day by their obstructive courses
on all measures calculated for a Wig
orous and effective prosecution of the
war.-New York World.

Singing Men Are Fiqhtino Men.

The power of music has long been
extolled by people who have made
that field of art their chosen work.
What is of unusual interest, however,
is the fact that an appreciation of it's
value as a builder Of strength and
courage was voiced by an officer in
the army. At the opening day of the
officers training camp at P%lattsburg,
n. Y, General Bell, n Of the officers
at the head of the training corps, made
an address before the men gathered
there, emphasizing the seriousness of
the work undertaken by them. During
the course of the talk he made the fol-
lowing statements:
"a soldier must think only of his
duty and do it in a way that all who
survive him will be proud of the way
he gave up his life. You know whom
we are going to fight. German soldiers
sing while they march. I want you
to see that our army beats them at
their own game, for singing men are
fighting men,"

PLAN TO Cheaper GASOLINE
Inventor Offers Government Process
Which He Claims viii Increase
Production 200 Per Cent.

Gasoline at seven cents a gallon Is
a proposition that Louis b. Cherry has
put up to the government. Mr.. Cherry
asserts that he has q kerosene proc
ess that will produce the cheap prod
uct. He has offered the process to the
government, according to the Washing
ton Post.
at has been estimated that about
100000, 900 gallons of gasoline were
made in the United States last year."
said Mr.. Cherry, at the Willard. "This
represents about 20 per cent of the
crude oil refined to obtain it, and in
this same crude oil there was about 40
iper cent of the combined fractions of
kerosene, solar oil and gas distillate,
which if converted into gasoline would
increase the production of that fuel
about 200 per cent, making it posi-
BILE for us to obtain from the same
amount of crude oil 1900, 100000 gall
Ions of gasoline" a#s'a~es
| Mr.. Cherry, who is a member of the
American Institute Of Electrical En-
4gineers and other scientific societies,
believes that it is entirely possible by
converting kerosene into gasoline to
make motoring a great deal cheaper
and forever solve the problem of pro-
:ducing sufficient gasoline to meet the
increasing demands for this important
product.

longs for the Greedy Fish.

The fish that swallows bait and hook
is not a joy to the angler. Getting
the hook out is nc easy task. But the
task is simplifed by using a handy
device just invented and described in
the Popular Science Monthly.
The device is made from one piece
of elastic steel wire bent in the shape
of a pair of tongs. The ends of the
two arms Of the tongs are sharpened
TO a point. When a fish has been
caught which Has swallowed the hook,

and their ends are inserted in the

CENTRAL POWERS TO

Austria and Germany May
Seek Separate Discussion

By John II. Hearley,

(Unlted Press starr tOfrespondent,l
Rome, Sept. 12.-Germany and Aus
tria may angle for a separate peace
discussion with America in the reply
to Pope Benedict's peace note.
Vatican informants today said there
was reason to believe that the German
government was specializing on how far
the allies would be guided by Presiden;
Wilson, the spokesman of a nation
which was not a party to the LONDON
compact pledging no separate peace.
Coupled with this came reports TO-
day that there was considerable agits-
ton in Austria for n separate diplo-
matie discussion with President vii.
son, through some neutral agency.
Possibly the vatican might serve as IN
intermediary.
The vatican was assured today that
the Central Powers reply would be
dispatched very soon. II was known
that this reply, although nominally ad.
dressed to the pope, will be in fact
directly aimed at President Wilson and
the American people.
Premier Pasitch of Serbia declared
to the United Press today that his ma
ton would make no formal protest over
pope Benedict's omission to specify
necessity for consideration of Serbia s
rights. Private representations, how.
ever will be made to the vatican in
this regard, he said.

STARTS MOVE
TO CONSCRIPT ALIENS
viii Be Given Ninety Days to
Leave Country If They
Will Not Serve

Washington, Sept. 12.-The senate
today moved to conscript friendly
aliens into the United States army.
While the allied governments were
framing agreements by which reci-
procal draft is to be applied to all
their nationals in countries at wal with
Germany, the senate passed the Cham
berlain resolution to conscript aliens
here.
The resolution. provides that all
aliens of allied countries living in the
United States a year shall be drafted
unless exempted by treaty.
Ninety days will be allowed any now
here who wish to leave. Nationals of
Germany, Austria, Bulgaria and Turkey
are subject to classification and draft
for other than military purposes.
The resolution must now be acted on
by the house.
Senator Lodge, urging passage of
the resolution, said the state depart
ment has done nothing towards set
Ting the alien draft matter by diplo-
macy, although the senate a month ago
requested the president to have this
done.
As a result of this inactivity, said
Lodge, "there is a growing sense of
bitter injustice throughout the coun-
try. In industrial communities, the
aliens form in many cases the larger
portion of the population, but the
Americans must furnish the entire
draft quota. In one Brooklyn district

OPPONENTS TO DRAFT
DANGER TO COUNTRY
Hardwick Bill Troops
Could Not Be Sent Out
of Country

Washington, Sept. 12,-Critics of tho
selective draft are placing this coun-
try in a "situation of extreme peril -
the senate military committee warned
today. Reporting unanimous recon-
mendation for rejection of the Hard
wick bill-preventing despatch of
drafted troops to France-the commit
tee scored the measure, declaring Ii
would disorganize America army
leave the nation powerless and make
it the laughing stock of the world.
''The situation arising out of this
spirit of opposition to the seleetive
draft is serious" said the committee,
eand taken in connection with the UNI
rest among the civilian population,
growing out of commercial and indus
trial conditions, stimulated in some
cases doubtless by pro-German sympa'
thizers and ~propagandists, places our
in a situation of extreme peril
at a time when all should be united n
a common cause"
Draft law opponents are preparing
a sharp reply to the report. Hardwiek,
several times has been criticised
for his anti-draft speeches, plans a
fight for his bill on the floor with the
support of three or four others.
Under Hardwiek's bill all a ma
would have TO do to escape ser 'icc
abroad would be to enlist in the ma
tional guard. Hardwick contends this
branch cannot be sent out of the coun-
try, no matter how great the emer-
geney.
The senate today continued to work
listlessly on the trading with the enc
my act, while leaders sought to shape
the legislative program so as to end
the session about October fifth.
