signed to appeal to short sighted, we'll meaning people, who, properly and justly. being stunned and. mortified by the slaughter and devastation of war. fail to see that we must suffer anE- thing now rather than permit the con- ditfous to remain such as to invite q repetition of this war.
 If Germany and her three vaSsal states, Austria, Bulgaria and Turkey, who are in matters economic, military and administrative, merely part of the German empire today, are permitted at the end of this war to control the Bal kans, and all the provinces of western Russia and through the Turkish en- pire to dominate western Asia, if that is done we shall have seen as the result of the war the upbuilding of the mightiest military despotism against which the civilized world has had to contend in all time.
 If we are sincere in our belief, we cannot rest content until the Bohemian and his brother, the Moravian and the Sloyak, have their independent con- monwealth and the southern Slavs theirs; until the Armenian and the Zionist Jew and the Arab and the Syrian Christian are rendered inde- pendent of Turkey"

mier Lloyd Georges assertions on April 9, that the British army in France was considerably stronger on January l, 1918, than it was on January l, 1917, adding:
 That statement implies that Haig's fighting strength on the eve of the battle beginning March 21 had not been diminished. That is not cor rect
 Denies Premier's Statement
 General Maurice also denies the truth of Premier Lloyd Georges as sertion that there was only one white division in Mesopotamia and only three in Egypt and Palestine.
 Bonar Laws statement gave rise to lively series of questions, in reply to which the chancellor said that as most of the secret documents would have to be gone into, it would be un- suitable to appoint select committee from the house of commons, but he added, a day would be given for dis cussion after the judges had reported. The disciplinary proceedings against General Maurice would not be sus- pended, pending the finding of the court of inquiry.
 Defends Government Stand
 The government has considered the best method of doing what they deem necessary to satisfy the house that we have not made misleading statements, and in our opinion that can best be done by the court suggested. said the chancellor.
 He thought that everyone involved would be glad to place his information at the disposal of the judges, and ii the judges were not given everything they wanted they would certainly let the government know.
 Admiral Sir Hedworth MeuX de- clared the answers given by MT. Bonal Law would be received with the great est dissatisfaction in the army and navy.
 "They are sick to death" he said with the way things are going on il the house of commons. May Gall Cabinet Members Replying to further questions by Sir Edward Carson, MT. Bonar Law said the judges would decide whether the members of the cabinet and for mer members of the cabinet should bt called as witnesses and allowed tt state what had tranSpired in thu | cabinet
 He was willing to allow MT. Asquitl to select two judges. Repeating that the disciplinary pro ceedings against General Maurice would not be suspended pending thu 1 inquiry, the chancellor said; Even if every statement was true discipline in the army would be i'm
 possible if such letters were permitte'

PARIS, May 7.-"I am going back to America to whoop it up for inten- sification of our military preparations said Judge Ben Lindsey of Denver, Colo. to the Associated Press today, before leaving on visit to the front
 We have accomplished great things, but they are insignificant compared with what still remains to be done, ' he continued. We need men here and need them quickly. Three million men in France should be our motto and the goal to arrive at before the end of another year"
 Judge Lindsey had just returned from visit to Rheims. which of recent days has been undergoing the most terrific bombardment of the whole war.
 If Rheims in it's present state could be transplanted to America" Judge Lindsey concluded, there would need be no other propaganda to speed up our effort

ROSE CHANGES COLOR

White in the shade, red in the sun-such is the twofold character that has given a name to the "chame- leon rose" At night, or when it is carried into a dark room, it assumes a waX-like whiteness. This does not occur abruptly, but the petals first pass through a bluish tint, which rapidly changes into a very pale rose. and finally ends by becoming the purest white. Then, if it is taken into bright sunlight, with the greatest rapidity it resumes the scarlet tint of the most brillian peony. This phe- nomenon comes from Japan.

SEDITION BILL IS
 IVOW READY FUR |TS ; CLOSING SIGNATURE
Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

WASHINGTON, May 7.-FinaI legis- laUve action was taken today on the sedition bill, giving the government broad new powers to punish disloyal acts and utterances. Adopting a con- ference report already approved by the senate, the house sent to the president for his signature the measure which has been before congress for weeks, assailed as q menace to free speech and championed as essential to order at home during the war.
 The debate in the house was nothing like so extended as in the senate and while some opposition developed there, ony Representative London of New York. the socialist, voted against the cop1erence report on the final test.
 Representative Lundeen of Minne- sota. republican, and Church of Cali fornia. democrat voted present.

MEXICO REFUSES ID
 RECONSIDER ACTION
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, May 7.-Efforts to induce the Mexican government to re- consider its action in cancelling the exequaturs of the American and Brit ish consuls at Guaymas apparently have failed ard the American and Brit ish governments will now decide whether they will abo:;snt the consul ates or yield to the Mexican demand that the consuls be replaced.
 The action of the Mexican govern ment resulted from the refusal of American Consul Simpich to permit the landing at Gnuymas of cargo from San Francisco consigned to 9 Guaymas firm on the enemy trading list of the war trade board. German business interests protested and con- plaint was made that the British cop- sul had informed the American of ficial.
 In reaching a decision, the American and British governments probably will give large consideration to the fact that beans shipped out of Mexico in jute bags imported from America form an important part of the diet of the ! laboring classes in Cuba, which is a CO., beligerent against Germany. Unless the beans are available, it is said America will have to send grain to Cuba that is needed by the allies.
