After all, this growth of German
influence was natural. If Germans
had achieved anything Of Importance
we were glad to profit by it. The
German was welcomed to our shores
and he made an excellent citizen
We little thought that the German
government was secretly taking adj
vantage of the situation. that its
agents were filling the country with
spies and scattering propaganda to
justify it's cause. Again many of US
were deceived. We could not be-
lieve that Germany started the war.
We preferred to believe it was
England and Russia. Did not Ger

poor Germany was fighting for
her existence? AT last the full eX-

BOARDIN
STORMY
SESSION

A feud of long standing among
members of Tacoma's park board
burst out afresh Monday morning
when President w. N. Allen and
Commissioner Craig called each
other by the Short and ugly
word and Commissioner Vaeth
attempted physically to eject Craig
from the meeting.
1t was one or the most exciting
sessions of the board since the
membership became disrupted
several months ago over the at
tempt OF two members to dis
charge Park Supt. Hill.
At the conclusion of the regular
meeting, President Allen took the
floor, asked Vaeth to act as chair
man. Allen explained that the
actions OF the board for some time
had displeased him, that insinua-
tions had been made that he was
attempting to have himself ap-
pointed in Hills place as superin-
tendent of the parks, and that he
was trying to run the entire park
system.
"That's a Lie."
Then Allen directed his remarks
at Craig, declaring that Craig had
been over-ambitious in trying to
keep Hill on the job at salary OF
$4,000 a year. The park presi-
dent declared that Craig had DELHI
erately falls fled during a recent
discussion over the park superin-
tendency.
/ Il tell you that the gentleman
lied declared Allen, as he lean
ed over the table and pointed at
Craig.
THAT is lie," Craig interrupt
ed as he started to arise.
That is a deliberate lie, and l
will not sit here any longer with
a dog"
Allen fairly dubbed over with
fury. Craig started to leave the
room.
Vaeth jumped to his feet.
Now you've got to get out.

/ If you say I've got to leave, |
will stay just to show you that
l am a free man," replied Craig.
as he pushed Vaeth to one side
and resumed his seat.
Aliens TRADE continued for 20
minutes, first aiming his remarks
at Craig and then at Commission
err Mottet.
AT the conclusion of his speecb.
Craig arose and made a brief de-
NAL OF charges hurled at him.
Il want to say" announced
Craig, that when a little cur
comes swapping at my heels,
ignore him. / shall do the same
in this case.
Yes jeered Allen, that's the
way little boys talk to each other

zoo NOT TO
BE SOLD OFF

BY unanimous vote, the Taco
ma park board Monday abandon
ed its idea to dispose of its meat
eating animals at PIT. Defiance
park as a war economy.
The action came after Secre-
tary Cover had read letter from
an eastern firm dealing extensive
ly in zoo animals, which notified
the park board that 1.-The market
in lions is very quiet this year."
President Allen told the park
board that he had never seriously
considered the disposal of the zoo,
but that many citizens had urged
him to take some economical ac-
tion at the park.
1.-THE reason | made the sugges-
ton at our last meeting was be-
cause l wanted the reaction to set
in which ! knew would come from
the press and public" said Allen.

G.W.PERKINS
BUCKS ADAMS
Omitted Press Leased Wire J

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 11.-Develop-
ments today will determine
whether the republican national
committee can choose a chairman
peacefully.
Altho the committee does not
meet in regular session until to-
morrow, its members gathered to-
day with the republican advisory
committee in a special meeting
called by Chairman William II.
Wilcox.
The chief menace to the pro-
gram was George w. Perkins of
New York, who let 1t be known
that he is unalterably opposed to
the selection of John T. Adams OF
Iowa as chairman. Perkins was
prepared to make his fight
against Adams in today's confer
ence.
If the harmony appeal of the
leaders is not effective, Senator
Boies Penrose of Pennsylvania
may hold the key to the situation.
Adams supporters claimed he
has pledges Of a sufficient number
! OF votes to assure his election.
Adams strength was admitted by
the hackers of Will H. Hays OF
Indiana, the Iowan's chief oppon-
ent, but they insisted that Adams
had not mustered sufficient votes
to win without the votes expected
to follow the leadership Of Pen
rose.
The Pennsylvania announced
he had come to the meeting with
' an open mind"
