1t seems as if the question could
not be wholly settled in the old world.
A new country was reserved for the
great final struggle of slavery and
human rights against slavery and
human oppression. America WAS
fortunately settled by those who came
for freedom freedom of conscience

Steel PIntes Cult Hard.

The cuts in price made by The gov
ernment cover not only the finished
product but all the basic materials
entering into steel manufacture, and
range from 43.l per cent to 7O5 per
cent. the largest cut being in steel
plates.
Aside from the effect upon the steel
Industry. the governments price fix
ing will cost the United States Ship
ping Board approximately S3O,OOO, 900
All Shipping Board or Fleet Corpora
ton contracts have been made on
a $50 basis, with the understanding
that 1t should be added to or sub
stracted from when the government
liked the steel price. As the board
needs about 100000 tons of plates,
the additional cost will mount far up
into the millions. 1t was stated yes
terday. however, that it would be un-
necessary to ask Congress to enlarge
the Shipping Board Appropriation.
One OF the first stipulations in the
Presidents announcement was that
there should be no reduction in the
present scale Of wages paid by the
steel plants. One Of the strongest
objections made to the new prices by
the steel magnates was that they
were too low TO maintain the present
scale OF wages. and that If wages
were cut, labor troubles would tie
up their plants and prevent A con-
tinuation OF maximum production.

Money Shortage Can't Keep You
Hungry Under New System.

Eating by the mile will soon be
possible on the Baltimore and Ohio.
according to unofficial adviCes received
from the executive offices of the road
at Baltimore yesterday.
As soon as necessary details can be
effected. the b. & o. will accept mile
age in exchange for meals on its din
ing cars. The road operates its own
diners and the change will be effected
without any confusion for Pullman
passengers
In addition to accepting mileage as
currency for meals. the road will also
accept book tickets in payment for
kilograms and baggage transfer. These
latter arrangements are made by
new agreement with the telegraph
companies and with the concerns that
handle Baltimore and Ohio baggage.
The new plan is expected to bring
increased receipts in the dining cars
and greater revenues for the telegraph
companies from patrons who have
mileage. but are short of currency.
The District passenger agents had
not been notified officially of the
change last night. but advices from
Baltimore indicated that the notices OF
the change would be sent out shortly.

day at the opening session of its
annual convention. upon the need
of. increasing the American food
supply to meet the war demand.
But while there was much discus
sion among various committees
about reducing interest to help
farmers, il was the sense of the
convention that banking must re-
main on a business basis, war or
no war. to protect the country's in
terests.
1t was indicated that farmers may
have to pay a Slightly higher in
terest rate, inasmuch as the bank
ers expect to lend more freely
upon a larger number OF crops.
Greater risks taken upon perish

dictate higher interest rates.

Sends Hope Glimmer-

The Kaiser's reply to the peace pro-
posals of the Pope puts far away all
ideas that this country could accept
such terms, said Senator Lewis, OF
Illinois. TO the Senate yesterday.
He called the reply "a studied and
deliberate effort to ignore and af-
front the United States"
Incidentally, the Illinois Senator
lashed public men who have opposed
the country's policies in time of wal.
No longer. said he. could they hide
behind the excuse Of free speech.
II say to any Senator on this floor. T."
cried Senator Lewis, ''as long as this
reply from abroad remains so auda-
cious and so daring, that the man
who raises his voice anywhere In
America in condemnation Of his coun-
try's course lends himself deliberately
to the support OF the German Empire.
Nor can he hide behind free
speech He cannot make that ex-
cuse. Let there be no misunder-
standing. This country guarantees
free speech. The patriots wrote It
with their very blood into the Consti-
tuition.
But when we speak OF free speech,
We mean the free speech OF an Amer
icon in America. That citizen. be he
official or private. who uses free
speech against America is not an
American to whom free speech was
guaranteed.
Let that man, high or low, under
stand that he may not again wher-
ever he is, adopt a mistaken course.
for in the hereafter it must be that
any further opposition from him will
be by design to render his country
contemplate before the world, while
he elevates into glory murderers and
destroyers"

now in camp approximately 1900
drafted men.
Upon arrival the succeeding continr-
ents are lined up for inspection. and a
few months later are on their first

national army. II is pretty stif1 hike
for the men, too-three miles through
the dust to headquarters, and then
perhaps a couple more TO their bar
racks, which are as likely as not to be
that far from headquarters, so vast
is the military reservation.
The grinninE crowd OF embryo
soldiers yesterday were in a cheer
full mood. Upon alighting they ap-
peared a bit dazed by their new
surroundings, and not without
cause. for the military reservation
is a vast place. almost as big as
the entire northwest section Of
Washington. Instead OF being one
camp it is really FIVE camps. and
one is easily lost in trying to find
his way about.
There were some visiting civilians
in camp-not many-for il is neces-
