Committee members instrumental in
having Newcomb Carlton, president of

were indignant that Cartoons testimony,
was taken in secret session.
"Wets" who are using the telegraph
resolution as a means Of filibustering
'gainst war time prohibition, also were
active today stirring up turmoil over
the resolution. Two other groups were
prepared to assail the committee for re-
porting the resolution back so quickly.
One Of these is composed Of those who
oppose governmental control under any
circumstances. The other is composed OF
government control advocates who de-
mand more information on the govern

The latter group is frankly moved
by the fear that Postmaster General

The strongest opposition
exists to giving Burlesop any more cen

NEW PERFECTION
OIL COOK STOVE

Won Kuehlmann declared in the
reichstag that the kaiser could not rule
Europe. The kaiser certainly cannot
pursue that fanatical attempt at sui
eide while Kuehlmann remains foreign
minister. Even THE stubborn, narrow
mind of the Germans would see the
fatal inconsistency of this course. If,
therefore, the kaiser still thinks he has
been chosen by Gott ito control Eu-
ropes destinies, Won Kuehlmann must
retire. Megolomaniaes who go into the
market place to prate of their inti-
macy with Gott have always been
makers of mad decisions. This time
the kailser's decision may lead to his
own imperial extinction.
