UNITED STATES TO REBUILD
 FRANCE

Not only is the United States helOiug France on the battlefield but the efforts of American genius will go toward the reconstruction Of railroads and bridges and the general avenues of transportation.
 The first forestry regiment, con sisting of 1900 men and designated as the 10th engineers, which has been under training at Washington, D. C., for more than 8 month, was raised at the request of the British government to undertake the pro duction in France of the cross-ties trench and mine timbers and other forms of lumber used in connection with military operations. The de cision to raise the second and much larger regiment has been reached as the result of reports Of Am erican foresters attached to Gen Pershing's staff in France In ad- dition 10 the 10 forest battalions in the new regiment there will alec be enlisted nine service bat tslions mada ua of laborers, to be employed in connection with the forest battalions. Carpenters and mechanics in various trades who have been working at Camp Lewis are carefully registered as they leave camp, and they may nave an opportunity for service in France with transportation furnished and hixh wages assured.-Taeoma News

London, Feb. 1.-The eyes of Great
pri'ain and all Europe are today TO-
,i.ftd oa Washington.
II is recognized that the question
whether the United States finally will
be drawn into the European war is be-
ing decided. Not only the policy of
the United States, but of the neutral
European nations. also Is being largely
determined in Washington. From
Spain, Holland and the Scandinavian
countries messages to the English pa :
pers say they are waiting for the lead
which the United States will give be-
fore framing their replies to the Ger
man announcement OF unfcttcred mari :
time war against all cargo vessels ap-
preaching her enemies coasts.
British officials decline to speak for
publication on the crisis lest any ut
teranccs might be construed in the
United States as officious attempts to
influence the American policy and in
trudc upon the problem, which they
recognize as purely one between tho
neutral nations and. the central pow

Two theories are being warmly dis
cussed here. One Is that the central
powers expect to starve out Great
Britain and her allies by unrestricted
sea warfare and that they consider
they have more to gain by trying to
shut off American supplies of muni-
tions and food than by continuing
friendly relations. The second is that
the central dsnasties consider that ut
the present moment they may best
serve their own interests with their
peoples by bringing upon themselves
the hostility of the neural nations and
saying that they cannot fight the
whole world.
At no previous stage OF the war
since the sinking OF the Lusitania has
the development of Americas policy
been SO intently watched. Every news
