CROSSINGS BEING
IMPROVED BY LIN.

Under repair permit, issued from
the city engineers office, force of
track builders of the Louisville &
Nashville railroad company for the
past several days have been engaged
in replacing the worn rail with new
steel, at the intersection Of Hayne
and Wright streets, and carrying on
the improvement further, the switch,
which had been in the center of Hayne
street, and which was operated from
that point for many years, has been
moved clear of the Hayne street in
tersection to the westward, thus
Strengthening the track, and at the
same time taking the switch out of
the street named.
More than half hundred men were
at work there yesterday and last
night, and the work was watched with
considerable interest, chiefly because
of the very fine steel which is being
used, which, it is estimated, will last
for twenty years or more.
After this steel is in place, it is
said that practically all crossings in
the city will be likewise improved,

STRENUOUS BATTLE
FOR PROHIBITION
ON IN WYOMING

Cheyenne, Wyo., Jan. "a strenu-
Gus battle to make Wyoming dry is
forecasted for the state legislature
which convened today. The signif-
canoe of Wyoming's decision is that
this state, as long as it remains wet,
supplies the operating base for mail
order sales of liquor into seven dry
states surrounding it.
Of the overwhelming sentiment in
Wyoming for prohibition, there ap-
pears to be little question. Neither
is there great deal of doubt as to
whether the legislature will vote
Wyoming dry by statute. There ap-
pears to be at least a good chance
for the submission of a constitutional
amendment for prohibition, and the
fight to block or delay it, according
to indications, will be made in the
state senate The liquor trade Wyo-
ming stands to gain as lone dry
state is estimated at $25,000,000 an
nually.
Wyoming has been made by de-
velopments in neighboring states the
scene of liquors last stand in the
northern and central Rocky mountain
region. With a population of only
175,000 and liquor consumption cor
respondingly small, the state has as
sumed an Importance to the liquor in
dustry utterly disproportionate to its
population.
More than year ago Colorado and
Idaho, bordering states, were voted
dry. At the election last November
South Dakota, Montana and Nebras-
ka, bordering states, were voted dry,
and Utah, the only other bordering
state, elected a legislature pledged to
prohibition by statutory amendment.
Therefore it is of tremendous import
ance to the liquor interests that Wyo-
ming shall continue wet.

SHORTENING Of WAR
ONE DAY MAY SAVE
10000 HUMAN LIVES
By Oswald Garrison Willard.
(Member American Neutral Confer.

N1hchiD0A A1hCAASoH neutral GOnIer-
ence Committee.)
| am emphatically of the opinion
peace is in sight.
By this / mean that in nv iudg-
ment the discussion of peace started
by German offer and the presidents
note will continue until some method
of composing the war is found.
That may take three months, or
six months, or nine months, or a year,
but l believe the end is really in
sight
1t took four years of peace con-
ferences to settle the Thirty Years
war; no one would venture to
prophesy how long these negotiations
must last, but the great thing has
been accomplished by President Will
son is to loosen tongues in every
country which had been padlocked
hitherto by the censorship or the cries
of the mob.
There must be debate in the house
of commons, when it meets again, on
the presidents proposals and this
will enable the more than 100 mem
bers of the house who are in favor of
settling the war now, if it can be
honorably done, to speak their minds.
The only regret / have in connec-
ton with the presidents wonderfully
courageous action is that he did not
do it year ago, for perhaps he would
have saved thereby a million lives.
My confidence that peace can be
lworked out which will satisfy all con-
cerned is due to my belief that the
Germans are ready to make peace on
satisfactory terms to the allies.
That does not mean, of course, that
the first offer will necessarily be one
that could be accepted. There must
be bargaining as there has been in
every similar case.
/ am fully aware when I say this
public sentiment in England would
not permit the government to accept
terms which would seem dishonorable
The great point is that sooner OF
later the war is going to be settled
by negotiation.
Those of US of the American Neu-
tral Conference committee who have
been working for peace can see nc
harm in their being an exchange OF
opinion just as the president has SC
nobly suggested, in order to ascer-
tain whether there is not a reason
able possibility of both sides getting
together.
Even the shortening of this war by
a single day may be the saving of 20,-
900 human lives. Why not find out
if tits really hopeless to begin to
bargain?

CHINESE ACCLAIM
NEW MINISTER Of
FOREIGN AFFA|RES

Peking, Jan. 7.-Dr. WI Ting
Fang's arrival in Peking to assume
the office of minister of foreign af
fairs was loudly acclaimed by the
Chinese press, Chinese leaders of all
parties and factions have endorsed
the former minister of the United
States as the best possible minister
of foreign affairs at this time when
the Japanese are making drastic de-
mands in settlement of the Cheng
chiatun incident, and the relations
are badly strained between China
and France as the result of the seiz-
ure by the French of an addition to
their concession in Tien-tsin.
On his way from Shanghai to Pek-
ing, DR.. WI Ting fang stopped over
two days at Marking, and had long
conference with General Feng Kuo-
chang, the newly elected vice presi-
dent of the republic. DIR. WI Ting
fang also stopped at Hsuchow-fu,
where he conferred with General
Chang Hsun, the powerful military
leader who controls the railway be-
tween Tien-tsin and the Yangtse val
ley.
At Tien-tsin the special train car
rying DR.. WI Ting-fang was met
by many hundreds of the Chinese
strikers who were enforcing a boy
colt against the French in that city
because of the aggressive action
taken by the French. The strikers
completely surrounded the train car
rying the new minister of foreign
affairs, took control of the engine
and insisted upon having an adj
dress. DR.. WI Tingfang appear
ed on the platform of his special car
and briefly assured the demonstra-
tors that he would do everything in
hi spower to prevent foreign nations
from gaining control over Chinese
territory. His address satisfied the
crowd, which proclaimed him great
minister, and permitted the train to
proceed to Peking.

DERRICK USED FOR
FIRST TIME FOR
ACCIDENT MONDAY

For the first time since its arrival
here, the floating power derrick at
the aeronautic station has been put
to actual use when the wrecked Bur-
gess-Dunne, which figured in the ac-
cident Monday of Lieutenant p. N.
L. Bellinger and Sergeant Crawford,
was salvaged from its position in
shallow water off Santa Rosa island
and carried to the station.
1t was reported that the airplane
was so completely wrecked that it
was literally in splinters, but that
the motor can be overhauled and used
again.
The derrick was only recently re-
ceived at the station, coming here on
barge towed by the collier Arethusa
from Charleston where it was built.
1t is probable that others will be sent
here. With the derrick it is possi-
bic to pick up wrecked machine
without damaging the planes, and is
chiefly valuable in slight accidents as
when a machine overturns while
alighting on the water.

CITY TAX ASSESSOR
is A VERY BUSY MAN

If an individual is seen paying more
than close attention to property in all
sections of the city nowadays, he is
seeking to arrive at a just valuation,
and should not be reported to the
police, for it will probably be City
Tax Assessor James Largue, who has
the habit of personally fixing valua-
tions on property and not taking the
word of second party.
Tax Assessor Largue was covering
the Belmont tract yesterday, and
reached his office in the city hall late
in the afternoon. He will be in the
residential districts again today, and
for several days, to personally esti-
mate, with a view to assessing, all
such properties.

MACHINE Gun WORK
HALTED BY WRECK

With the wreck of the All 10, the
big Burgess-Dunne airplane in the ac-
cident Monday, the work of testing
machine guns receives a temporary
malt, as the Burgess Duane was the
only "Pusher" at the station available
for the work.
In practieing with machine gun,
if it is mounted on the forward end
of the machine, no obstruction can
be placed before the gun to hinder
swivel action or easy aim. For this
reason, tractor, or machine with the
propeller mounted in front cannot be
used unless the gun is placed above
the top plane which for some uses is
impracticable.

" Duty of Every Mon to Help
WIN. This War, and WIN 1t
QUICKLY" Ex-senator Smith

four months after the war closed.
as I am opposed to a great stand
ing army In times of peace There
have been bills like the espionage
bills. and the transportation priori-
ties bill prepared in the depart
ments and never read by the pres
ident which came TO the senate In
defective shape.
The twelve espionage bills, in
length amounting almost to book,
contained many provisions calcu-
lated to unnecessarily annoy and
distress our citizens.
These Objectionable provisions We
cut out. but we gave every power
that could be used to aid in the
war.
In the transportation priorities
bill opposed the provision that
allowed the creation of priortties
of shipments between Individuals.
We substituted a provision giving
the president every power TO Gre
ate priorities where needed TO pro-
mote the war.
After the bill was passed the
president expressed his entire sat
isfaction with the bill as IL was
completed.
Instead OF seeking to hinder the
president in his work, as has bene
charged, I regard him as a great
leader, and always desire TO Sup
port the Democratic administration
IN every way.
I believe IL the duty OF every man
to do all in his power to help
win this war, and help win II as
quickly as possible. 1 said moth
ing in my Athens speech contrary
TO these views.
In a speech in the senate last Sat
urday, Senator Smith made a forcefu
and stirring appeal for prompt actio
on the food control bill He dtrecte
attention to the fact that, with the ap
prevail of the president and Mr.. Hoover
a number Of extraneous and cucumber
ing provisions originally in the meas
ure had been stricken out, thus putting
il IN shape for prompt and favorabl
Senator Smith said 4
part:
Mr.. President, did not approve
the bill called the food control bill
as II first came from the depart
ment of Agriculture, but the obJec-
tfonabIe features have been strick-
en-, with the approval of the presi-
dent and his representatives. In
deed. they agreed that the obJec-
tionable features should never have
been placed in the bill.
The president urges prompt pass
age of the food control features Of
this bill. and declares they arc
essential to the vigorous conduct
OF the war. Let us lay aside for
the time being our pet theories or
legislation. Let us refrain from
adding them 20 this food bill. Ler
US defer all things not essential
Let US place the food supply IN
the hands of the president to con-
duct the war, so that IL will add 20
our strength in the war.
The energy and force of every
American should support our ma
ton. Let us concentrate our forces.
Let US put our hearts, our hands
and our bodies into this struggle
until, by Gods help, we may crush
our enemy or drive our enemy to
place where we can obtain an hon
orable and lasting peace.

At the same time, Hollweg, because
of the liberalism which he exhibited on
these two occasions and on others, is
commanding considerable sympathy
from the radical German elements. One
of the main reasons for the prediction
IN German dispatches today that he
would survive the upheaval was that
the liberal elements in Germany, while
realizing Hollweg's fundamental atti-
tude of reaction. nevertheless preferred

Early European Cables Indi-
cate Shakeup in Cabinet
With Chancellor HoIIWeg
Weathering Storm

LONDON. July 1.-THE Junkers still
control in Germany. All dispatches re-
ceived here via Holland today indicated
that with an increase of the tension in
Berlin through the Liberals attempt to
force reforms and pledge of the govern
ment to a policy of no anneXations, the
Junkerites were exhibiting growing
strength.
A compromise peace formula, based
on the idea that Germany is lighting a
defensive war. was expected to be the
agreement effected on the fight for peace
aims. while the demand of the reform
lists for electoral changes was to be
quieted by replacement of a number
of the conservative Prussian state min
listers by Liberals
