SECRETARY DANIELS HITS
AMERICAN MUhITI0N FIRMS
That Schwab Is Not a
Patriot.

Washington, Jan. %. Sweeping
charges of inefficiency, lack of patriot
ism and attempts to hold up the gov
eminent were made against American
munition manufacturers by Secretary
Daniels on Sunday.
Charles NJ. Schwab and the Bethle-
hem Steel company are mentioned
specifically in the secretary'S state
ment. Figures are given showing that
less than Q per cent of lot OF IA
inch shells submitted by the Bethle-
hem company were acceptable to the
naval examiners. On the other hand,
all the shells submitted by Hadfields,
Limited, the English concern, to which
ii large contract has just been award
ed. met the American requirements.
Secretary Daniels says he would not
make these figures public did he not
believe the facts We're already known
abroad.
After praising some of the manu-
facturers for willingness to assume
their share in the program of prepar-
edness, Mr.. Daniels says:
That other large manufacturers of
war material should persist in extract
ing the last penny of profit from our
urgent necessity gives a certain color
to the arguments OF those who believe
that preparedness IS a synonym for
profits and DOT patriotism"

WILSON TO STUMP
FOR PEACE IDEA
Considers Speaking in Different
Parts of Country.
SENATE HALTS LONG DEBATE
Cumn1lns Resolution, Providing for
Discussion of Presidents Speech,
Is DeIayec--Senator Stone
Opposes Action.

Washington, Jan. &c. - President
Wilson has taken under consideration
a suggestion that after congress adj
journs he make a number of speeches
In different parts of the country In a
campaign of education in connection
with the ideas expressed by him in his
address ON peace before the senate.
Oficialsx said the president had
reached no conclusion and would not
do so for several weeks.
Action ON Senator Cummins' reso-
luton to provide for exclusive con
sideration of President Wilson's peace
address until all senators have ex-
pressed their views, was deferred and
it was sent to the calendar after it
had been debated two hours.
Senator Cummins sought to obtain
unanimous consent for the resolution
to go over without prejudice, to come
up automatically again this week, but
Chairman Stone of foreign relations
committee objected Senator Cum
Minis pointed out that with the resoIu-
ton on the calendar it is possible for
him to move 10 take It up tomorrow or

MONR0VIA NOT UGLY CITY
Unprosperous and "shiftless," but StiIa
in Many Ways Place of Attrac-
ton for tie Tourist.

The one word that describes Monroe
via is "shiftless." Here came the for
mer negro slave in the early eighties
backed by philanthropists who wanted
to see him given chance in his own
country. And here is the former ne
gro slave today, idling away his life
in the tropical luxuriance of the jun
gle, which feeds him without cultiva-
ton, and watching his one big chance
fall to ruins.
After all. the negro can hardly be
blamed if he fails in a task that has
tried the nerve of white men. ColOniz-
ing Liberia has not been all a delight
full experience. There are still many
lions, leopards and snakes in the
jungle, which make road-building a
dangerous occupation, and occasionally
the interior tribes of negroes get OBJ
streperous and eat a couple of their
civilized brethren.
Monrovia is pitiful, but not ugly.
Over all its shabbiness and decay grow
the scarlet hibiscus, pink oleanders
and other tropical flowers, decorating
with their brilliant blossoms the corpse
of q fine ideal.

Thinly yelled threats of congressiOn-
al action to regulate the stock ex-
change and possibly prosecute mem
bers alleged to have engaged in pools
to depress the value Of securities; an
attack upon the theory of short
sales" with the implied suggestion
that it might be wise thing to put an
end to such practices, and virtual de-
mand that the board of governors of
the stock exchange request its mem
bers to supply full records of transac-
tions from December 10 to %. with the
names Of the clients involved. were
among the many surprises at the first
session here.
Stock exchange officials fought for
hours against granting the latter re-
quest. On the promise that the names
of clients would not be revealed unless
evidence Of wrongdoing was discov-
cred, officials captulated.
