ability Debated in Face
of Warning

Colonel Roosevelt, who cannot be
suspected of thinking or talking sedi-
ton, has broken wide open the hitherto
taboo subject of rifles.
In a speech Wednesday at Camp
Grant, Illinois. he publicly made plain
the fact that the National Army is
drilling with wooden guns.
For the regulars and for the Fed
eralized Guard there are rifles enough
to 90 once around and a little over.
In service five TO a man a year will
be required.
There are no rifles for the National
Army now mobilizing. II will have to
60 on drilling with wooden guns for
months to come.
Meanwhile and this is the central
fact of all-private rife-msking plants
with an aggregate capacity of 5000
guns a day are idle, save one, which
three weeks ago began turning out 400
day at its own risk.
For several weeks The Tribune has
been investigating this bathing situa-
tion. II has more angles than a rifle
has parts 1t parallels in an extraordi-
nary way the difficulties which England
encountered in obtaining arms and mu-
nitiors for her troops at the beginning
of the world conflict.

expulsion Of Heflin 70 divert attention
from the activities of the pacifists and
pro-Germans.
Hefin said that President Wilson,
who is commander in chief of the army
and navy. would not permit his ex-
pulsion from the House.
Representative Britten lost no time
in paying his respects to Hefin.
"Mr. Hef1n has done more than any
one man in Congress tc destroy the
efficiency of the army and the navy"
said Mr.. Britten.
Attacked by Britten
During his long service in the House
he has been a confirmed pacitist Of the
lowest order. and is now lnasqueradlng

in the army recommended by the Gen
oral Staff. And il Is he and men OF his
ilk who are responsible for the coun-
try's unpreparedness for great war
day.
"He is the same Hefin who suggested
that the White House should be
blown up By bomb at the time Presl-
dent Roosevelt entertained Booker l..
Washington there. During all these
years no one accused him of being dis
ioyal 10 the flag nor Of treason, but re-

street"
Representatives Baer and Norton
both denounced Hefin, the latter re-
peating his declaration that Hefin
should either make good his charges or
be expelled from the House.
"The suggestion that an investiga-
ton be held Of this Bernstorff fund,

Decollete Wins
Over "War Trousers -
In Women S Corps

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-At a stormy
meeting of the women's motor detach-
ment, held in the Red Cross headquar-
ters here, the commanding officer. Colo
mel Mrs ]. Borden Hartman was voted
down on the question OF wearing the
motor costume on all occasions.
The motor corps, composed of sew
enty-five we'll known girls and matrons,
wears smart uniform not unlike that
worn by the aviators of the Royal Brit
ish Flying Corps; gray cloth cut IN
Russian blouse effect, heavy leather
belt, trousers, high riding boots and
tight fitting boat-shaped hat. with a
red cross on the peak over the fore
head, complete a striking costume. On
the left arm a wide band bears the IN
sigma Of the corps. and the letters
W. V. A. The girls drive the Red
Cross ambulances and other motors
for war relief work. o..
Colonel Hartman, Mrs. Scott, wife
of the commanding officer at Fort
Myer, and few others decided IN COM
mittee that the members must wear
uniforms every waking hour, as they
expressed it. The colonel and her
adherents got rude shock when they
sprung this decision on the other mem
bers.
The opposing faction, led by Mrs.
Joseph Letter, refused TO dispense with
evening gowns, negligees and other
feminine fnery. Imagine said one
indignant driver. when interviewed,
going 10 church IN trousers and
stamping up the aisle 70 the altar rail
at communion service in these heavy
riding boots-my family would dis
own mel" Said another, My husband
wouldn't be seen with me in a public
restaurant or hotel in such regalia."
Colonel Hartman appeared recently
aF'ths afternoon tea in her uniform and
maintained, stoutly supported by Mrs.
Scott, that the drivers never call
themselves chautfeurs in the
Red Cross, and therefore under military
discipline. should wear their service
clothes like any soldier or sailor.
The entire detachment is ordered to
New York next week to take part in
the parade next Thursday. Six am
balances will 60.

Laundry From Mexico
Brings German Notes

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 27.-The latest
means of communication between the
German Legation in Mexico City and
New York, it is declared, is being car
ried out by means Of soiled laundry.
Women travellers proceeding from
Mexico TO the United States. to whom
the laundry is given, are requested. it
is said TO send it TO certain address
in New York
1t is inferred that these pieces OF
linen carry messages written in sym
pathetic ink. 1t is also said that some
of them bear telegraphic symbols be-
meath embroidery. which conceals the
dots and dashes.
1t is reported, but unconfirmed, that
this plan originated with Captain
Meintsche, who came over to the
United States as member of the ships
company OF the submarine Deutschland
and who made his way into Mexico.

II thank you very warmly for your generous ap-
probation of my reply to the Pope, and wish that

cern the other matters we were discussing when you

result Of the session of the Rules Com
