took its proper place by the side Of the
Allies fighting for world freedom"
Since the United States entered the
war, Colonel Roosevelt declared, it had
gradually hardened itself for the tasks
in hand.
"But," he warned, 1--WE are not vet
fully aware Of what is In store for US.
We have had men killed and wounded.
but that is only begun. Our losses to
date, regrettable as they are, are not
as great as the losses Of the English
or the French on any Of several days
since the great German drive Of March
began"
The men at the front, from whose
ranks this heavy toll must be taken, if
1t is not to be taken later from men
fighting on American soil in defence
of their homes, should, Colonel Roose-
velt declared, have the backing of a
united country.
"There must be no fifty-fifty loyalty
in this country" he declared, in decry-
Ing those who talk peace or spread re-
ports OF the enemy being about to cave
In. THE pacifists and those who spread
such reports" said he, "are the great
est allies Germany could hope to have
in the United States. In their efforts
to create the false hope that peace may
be near, they seek to slow down our
efforts to bring the real peace that can
only come when the militaristic autoc-
racy Of Germany is crushed"
Colonel Roosevelt, after denouncing
the wealthy man who may seek cxemp-
tion for his son to run the family busi-
ness, denounced as pro-German those
who declare this to be rich mans war,
IN which only the poor fight.
Rich Men Doing Their PARE
II have" said he, "only the utmost
contempt for the well-to-do man who
asks that his son be exempted, while
the man of small means goes forth to

very few Of these. Never in our his
tory has there been a war where tho
men OF means have given so freely of
their bodies as we'll as Of their means
as they arc giving in this war
The man who spreads the report that
this is rich mans war and poor

seeks in this manner to aid the enemy
and injure this country"
Colonel Roosevelt urged the aboli-
tion Of the use of foreign languages.
especially German in schools or other
public places. "This war is unifyin9
the country" said he, "and one way It
is unifying the country is by forcing
the abandonment Of every language ex-
cept that Of the Declaration Of Inde-
pendence and the Constitution. There
must be but one language, and that
English. Other languages may we'll
be taught, should be taught, in the
higher schools and colleges, but the

millions of tons of domestic coal and
are getting it at the rate Of about
seven TO twelve thousand tons dav
so far as dealers and Transportation
men could estimate yesterday. Though
this is far below what Federal fne,
administration officials hoped would
be accomplished as summer coal dis.

opinion that if the current. shipments
continued in their present volume tha
city would enter the coming winte,
with a margin sufficient to prevent a
recurrence of the fuel famine in the
midst Of zero weather.

Greater New York are not being used

CAMP MILLS, Long Island, juno 8.
Captain William Whaling. Of this
camp and his wife were reunited to-
day, after an interval of three years,
during which accidents and the vicissi-
tudes Of army life kept them apart,
although Mrs. Whaling crossed the Pa
cihc and travelled from Alaska to Mex
leo to find her husband.
In the early summer Of 1915, three
months after their marriage, Captain
Whaling was ordered from the Pacific
Coast to the Philippines. He left his
bride in California until he should find
suitable quarters for her in his new
post.
That task was more difficult than he
expected, and it was several months
before a cable message summoned Mrs.
Whaling to Manila. Soon after her
ship sailed Captain Whaling was or
dered back to this country. Somewhere
in the Pacific, likely enough at the line
where the days hop off of the west
bound ships and on to homeward-
bound vessels, their ships passed.

Z OMAHA. Neb., June 8.-Though suf-

The fever from which the Colonel

relief, and this morning DR.. George H.
Coleman, who came from Chicago with
the party, declared the Colonel could
htl his engagements. AS a matter of
precaution, he will accompany the party
to St. Louis.
The fact that a physician is travel
