Washington. ID. c.. 3:45 p. m.-
Special: President Wilson in a speech
to Congress this afternoon announced
that diplomatic relations with Ger
many had been broken off because
of Germany's declaration of ruthless
submarine warfare.
Passports were sent to the Ger
man ambassador to the United States,
Count Won Bernstorff, and ambassa-
dor Gerard, United States ambass-
ador to Germany, was instructed to
close the embassy in Berlin as we'll
as all consulates.
The United States also formally
demanded of Germany the immediate
release of all the American passen-
gers and sailors taken prisoners on
prize ships by raiders in the South
Atlantic.
Spain will look after the United
States interests in Berlin and In Ger
many, and Germany's interests in the
United States will be attended to by
the Swiss ambassador to the United
States, in Washington.
A break of diplomatic relations
does not necessarily mean war, ac'
cording to the principles of interna-
tional law, but it is a step short OF
actual conflict and is usually follow
ed by the gravest consequences. Pres
ident Wilson will undoubtedly order
the Atlantic fleet to keep sharp
lookout for German submarines and
for it to be prepared for any eventu-
ality that may arise.

Good Roads Week

The third week in April 1918,
will undoubtedly be the greatest
Good Roads Week" ever held in
the United States. Three great
national Good Roads gatherings
will take place in Little Rock,

builders, road machinery men
will gather there for a distinct
purpose-to advocate and see
that movements are put on foot

The Government And The Railroads

The railroad problem has
reached the stage of cabinet dis
cussion. Washington dispatches
indicate that the discussion tt rms
on the question of government
ownership. In other words it
would appear that the admins
tration. while not prepared to
advocate the naturalization of
the railr roads, is looking in that
direction for a solution of our
transportation difficulties.
Government ownership NAV I'll
timately commend itself as ma
tional transportation policy But
it does not now commend itself
to any large part of the popula.
ton. 1t must inevitably be a re
mote goal. if it ever should be-
come goal. The reasons are
manifold; one of the most potent
lies in the diff Guilty, if not impos-
sibility. of raising the enormous
purchase price concurrently
with the floating of huge war
loans.
Agitation for government own.
ership merely obscures, the ne
cessity for granting the rail
roads Immediate relief. 1t is as
if the specialists should allow
patient to die for want of nour-
ishment while they were discuss
ing the advisability of a major
operation.
1t is admitted that the rail
roads require additional revenue
tie develop their full efficiency It
is admitted that they should be
relieved of certain burdensome
legal restrictions. These are not
problems They are simple ques-
tions for administrative and leg
iSlative common sense. Chicago

Dudley LOOMS, son of Mr. and Mrs.
G. M. Loomis of this city is up in the
air." He is running a flying machine
all by himself out on the Pacific coast.
He is making good and likes the
games. Writing from his training
grounds at San Diego "Dud" tells of
his first experiences in going alone
of solo" as he calls it. He says:

Telling how it feels to run ship
the young aviator says:

time you get thrill. After the motor
is running at full speed and you
run along the ground until you get

trolls and push forward to raise the
tail up to a flying position you exer-
else gradual pull till you are off.
when the instructor gets you up
about one to two thousand he gets
you accustomed to the feel of the
air. This is followed by a few figure
Fights and a nose drop of a few feet
and then the pupil is given the wheel.
The wheel controls the lateral sta
bility, and elevation. That is enough
to handle at first, without trying to
use the rudder.
"At first the ship wants either to
climb or drop, and if a photograph
were taken when you first had the con-
trolls it sure would show a crooked
course. The second time up you have
all the controls in the air, but no land
ings or take-offs. Then you gradually
take it all over, landing and everything
until you are flying solo,
