 Senator Chamberlain said:
 Tn my New York speech l had not prepared the address and spoke twen- ty minptes extempOraneOusly without notes. I pointed out that from Bunker Hill to the present time we had no military organization or policy The press report of my address was cor rect But my argument was directed to the military establishment and not to other departments of the govern ment, although it was broad enough to be subject to that interpretation But those hearing it knew I referred mere ly to the military establishment and that the senate military committee had undertaken, through the bills for a war cabinet and director of muni- tions to work out changes in the es- tablishment
 T explained that these bills were not administration measures. did not misrepresent them.
 Secretary Bakers efforts to better his organization have my utmost ap- proval He has made much improve ment- But the inherent weakness of his reorganization is thatnObody be- tween the army and the president has legal authority. There is the council of national defense, the warindustries board and the clearance committee all purely voluntary organizations between the president and thearmy The war cabinet and director of the munitions would be created by law withdefinite legal pofers and duties, respectively, to map out and direct war policies and to have charge of war supplies By this plan we would sub stitute a strong for the only weaklink i n the chain of organization
 -'I regret very much that the admin istratiOn is not with me. But l am acting under my oath and willhave the approval of my own conscience even if not of the administration
 The people are entitled to be let into the committees confidence. IT the people don't want it. that will be all right. It's their war"
 Fight Expected
 Early today word that the president opposed the war council plan was con veyed tCthe capitol, with the assur- ance that the legislation would be fought to a finish. Among others. Representative Kahn. ranking Repub- lican member were callers at the White House and learned of thepres- ident's attitude
 Tonight the president had confer ence with Senator Martin, Democratic floor leader, and several other sena- tors and gave them his opinion about the senate committees bills. It is un- derstOOd there was a general discus sion of the congressional investiga- tions and criticisms of the executive departments.

Coal is going to homes and ships are being bunkered- It was unfortunate that the severe weather interfered somewhat with clearing railroad congestion"
 Asked tonight if he would extend the five days industrial closing if it appeared that the accomplishments sought had not been fully obtained, Dr. Garfield said he did not wish to cross that bridge until he came to it. There will be ten heatless Mondays, Dr. Garfield said tonight, despite pres sure to have their number reduced In selecting Monday as the day for general closing.

 Dr. Garfield took occasion to de- nOunce proprietors of manufacturing plants who have announced that they will work overtime five days a week to make up the time lost Mondays. That be said. would be a plain eTas- ion of the order.
 A new ruling regarding the sale of  food on Mondays was made tonight when the following telegram was sent to state fuel administrators in respect to these stories:

 CHICAGO, Jan. 21. - Confusion in the public mind marked the first of Chicago's heatless Mondays. An evi- dent attempt to back up the govern ment, however. was apparent on ev- cry hand. The day lacked the restful- ness of Sunday and the glad excite ment of holiday.
 The theatres, which by a special dispensation remained open today and will close Tuesday, did capacity bus mess. Billiard halls also remained open and will close tomorrow.
 Many saloons remained open. al- though their temperatures were re- duced to 45 degrees required by the fuel administration.
 The surface and elevated railways were damned during the day, the holi- day schedules which they had put in- to effect proving inadequate.
 Few violations of the fuel order were reported. most of them being due to ignorance and resulting only Tn warning to the offenders.

 of the Ulster uniOnist party I should like. it clearly understood that since l joined the government there never has been any matter of policy. either in connection with the conduct of the war or the principles and aims for which we are fighting. where I found myself in disagreement with you or my other colleges in the war cabinet.
 'I very much regret this severance. but am convinced it is for the nation al advantage"
 Lloyd George Grateful.
 Mir. Lloyd George replied to Sir Ed ward. expressing the deepest and most unfeigned regret because of the value l attach to the unvarying courage and sagacity you brought to the councils of the nation"
 'I recognize your special difficult ties" the premier's letter continues. ''and although you have fought hard and repeatedly against the conclusion you have arrived at. am compelled to admit under the present circumstances there is wisdom in the course you have taken
 May I thank you for your great help and answering loyalty during the year of our association in this terri ble task?"
 The resignation of Sir Edward Car son takes out of the cabinet one of the most uncompromising British statesmen on the question Of home rule for Ireland. For years he has opposed an Irish parliament and up to the out break of the present war. when me Irish question was at it's height, he went to the extent of organizing and training the Ulster volunteers for civil war against the British government if home rule for Ireland was inaugu- rated.
 Then came the world war. and Sir Edward almost immediately announced that the Ulster volunteers were ready for service under the flag of Great Britain against the enemy.
 Inasmuch as the official annOg1ce- ment of the resignation of Fir Edward says his withdrawal from the cabinet was due to the Irish question, II is reasonable to assume that the critical stage which has been reached in the Irish convention, with s.ight prospect of even a modified form of a substan- tial agreement being reached, and the recent statement that the government had decided not to introduce conscrip- tion in Ireland for the present were the chief causes for Sir Edward Car sons withdrawal from the government.
  layed switching. the labor available to pick it out not being sufficient for the tremendous job.
 Still coneested.
 Congested terminals. shortage of power and lack of efficient labor were recorded in a special car supply re- port made today by Commissioner Nc Chord. One item of character was the statement that at several yards the number of bad order" cars was de cressing.
 Inability to get loaded cars through the congestion has tied up many cars loaded with freight not in the prefer ential list. but which was started on its way before the government took over the railroads.
 Inadequate supplies of labor as well as motive equipment and cars are given as dominating reasons for the congestion of all kinds of freight.
 EmbargOes by connecting lines east have delayed the movement of oil on the Missouri, Kansas and Texas. Solid trains of oil now are being run out of Parosns, Kas. while cotton and other freight is side-tracked.

COME TO GRIEF WHEN
MONEY GIVES OUT
SOAKED CAR FOR PIFTANCE
Ran Car Into White River and
Then Pawned and Abandon
ed-Girl and Boy In Jail
Here

a thrilling little episode surround
ing the theft of the d. s. Chubb Buick
car from Military avenue in Baxter
was unfolded with the arrest of q boy
and a girl at Neosho, Mo-, Tuesday.
This is how it happened: Two
boys of eighteen who have been run
ming around and came here from
Picher on the day of the theft, and
a sweetheart of one of the boys,
Mary Jacobs, seventeen years old, de-
cided they had to have a car to go
south with. The girl was stationed
At the corner of Park and River Sts.,
and the boys came up town to get
a car. The Chubb Buick was handy
md filled the bill and was taken. The
boys drove the car around and pick
ed up the girl. They drove south
through or near Joplin, NeoshO, Mo-,
and Fayetteville, Ark. Six miles be-
low Fayetteville, Ark, the youthful
drivers ran the car off into White
river. The hood was covered and the
engine killed and they hired farm
er to pull them out. They were out
of money and pawned the car to the,
farmer for $50. This was at Green
land, Ark. They then came tO NeO-
sho, Mo-, and it seems The girl thought
her sweetheart was trying to aband-
on her and she turned the boys ~.
(;cae Turner received the phone call
last night and was kept busy all night
giving Identification Of the car and
making a trip in attempt to get the
other boy who was not captured at
Neosho. 1t is expected the other boy
will be captured and brought to this
city within the next few hours for
his whereabouts and identity were
known early yesterday and his cap
ture is but a matter of hours. 1t Is
said that the father of the boy, here
in Jail, is a travelling salesman out OF
Pittsburg, Kas. The home of the
girl and the boys is not known for
certain at this writing.
The boy and girl were lodged in
The Baxter Jail Wednesday and are
the subject of a deal of conversation
on Military avenue this afternoon.
The girl is rather small and says they
did not give her very good break
fast at the Jail at Neosho this morn
ing.
Gene Turner has been doing some
excellent work since the city marshal
left and deserves a good deal Of cred
it for bringing about several captures
that have been made here in the last
few days. 1t was due to some adver-
tising sent out through him that the
owners of the car were so quickly
located.

afternoon.

PROGRESS IN MINING FIELD

The rapidity of the development in
The Baxter mining field is indeed a
marvel. Stay out Of the territory for
a couple of weeks and when you re-
turn you won't be able to locate your
self, so many new mills and new
townsites having sprung into exis-
tence. The most remarkable growth
in recent months is at Hockerville,
which started less than a year ago
on the wild prairie, and now has two
or three thousand people and several
mines within a stones throw Of one
another. Hockerville and Ontario
have grown together; now comes the
new townsite of Kidd adjoining Hook
erville on the west. Kidd is surround
ed by mills and mill sites and the
electric line runs along the north line,
making it a convenient point for both
home and business. All of this vast
development is within three or four
miles of Baxter Springs and when the
new electric line is in operation it
virtually will be a part of the Baxter
community.
The Southwest Missouri company is
pushing the building Of its line. 1t is
going ahead in spite Of many hind

for money. Rails and ties are be-

practically complete up to within q
half mile Of Hockerville.
