SENDS THANKS
Secretary McAdoo Expresses Gratii-
cation on Liberty Drive

"The great success of the Fourth
Loan is new and convincing evidence
of the determined spirit of America
to carry on the war until freedom is
assured throughout the world. But
even with the highest purpose and
patriotism oil the part Of the people
this greac result could not have been
achieved without intelligent direction
and organization. I wish to thank
the Liberty Loan committees, both
business men, farmers, wage earners,
railroad officers, and employees, and
every group of citizens who have so
ably and enthusiastically cooperated
with the =. easury in conducting the
campaign. To the press of the
country especial credit is due for en-
phasizing through their news columns
and editorial pages the necessity for
making this great loan successful.
"The American people have con-
summated the greatest financial
achievement in all history"

possible to begin an air service be-
tween Marseilles and London with a
single stop at Paris for an overhaul
and taking in gasoline. MI Page
continued:
"Constantinople could be reached
in twenty hours, Rome in twelve and
half hours, and Marseilles in eight" ]"
he said.
"An 803 mile service could be run
at a profit, both for mails and pas
sengers, at rate but little in excess
of that at present in force.
81 base my calculations on the use
of medium-si machine making
nonstop fights of 400 miles. Each
would carry 4 4,400 pounds of revenue
earning load There would be first
class aerodrcmes at each end of the
route, and another in the middle.
Second elias; aerodromes would be
provided every 100 miles.
A minimum service of six machines
each way per day could be provided
for a capital of under five hundred

would hn under six hundred thousand
pounds"

T.R. SAYS HE SHOULD
HAVE GONE ABROAD
Former President Peeved at Not
Getting Army Post.

That the administration had erred in
not sending him to France was i'm
pressed last night by Col. Roosevelt
on Representative James A. GaIIivan,
of Massachusetts. Mr.. Gallivan, though
a Democrat, was invited to spend an
hour with the Colonel in order that
the former President might thank him
for what he did last fall in trying to
have him placed at the head of a di-
vision in France.
The Colonel told me- said Mr..
Gallivan. that he was convinced that,
next to Gen Pershing, he would have
been the most valuable leader over
there with the American forces. He
praised Gen Pershing highly"
Col. Roosevelt spent a quiet day at
the Longworth home. He denied him
self to newspaper men. and used his
time in talking to old friends and lin
ing up the political situation.
Clifford Pinchot and the Colonel
lunched together. and later the former
president took a brisk walk in the
snow-covered, sunshiny streets. Among
his callers were Senator Calder, of
New York, and Ambassador Jusserand

LABOR BOARD LACKS
MANDATORY POWERS
Hopes Orders Will Be Observed as
Patriotic Duty.

The Department of Labor's en-
ployment bureau is without legal
authority to enforce its ban on in
judicious advertising by shipyards
and other industries and contrac-
tors engaged on government work,
1t was learned last night.
A general appeal to abandon the
practice has been made on patriot
ic grounds. Mutual benefits to be
derived have been stressed.
1t Is the plan of the bureau to do
away with local employment agen-
cies. All orders for mechanics or
farm hands will be filled through
Washington. Advertisements for
labor will be eliminated.
The United States Public Service
Reserve, a bureau of the Employ
ment Service, now has more than a
million skilled mechanics register
ed. Registration is being contin-
ued with the hope of enrolling ev-
cry available worker in the country.
A large number of Porto Ricans
have been assembled for service in
the United States as soon as they
can be brought in.
Through these measures OF regu-
lation it is believed labor problems
and shortage can be reduced to a
minimum, it was said at the Labor
Department last night.

baker AGAIN DENIES
LACK OF SUPPLIES
Declares Pershing's Forces Did Not
Suffer from Shortage.

Secretary of War Baker reiter-
ated last night that Gen. Pershing's
eXpeditiOnary forces have not suf-
fered from shortages of either
clothing or food supplies. There
have been some shortages. said the
Secretary, but they were in the re-
serve supplies.
Reserve supplies adequate for
five months are maintained. under
the war program. Reports of short
ages arose when these stocks fell
below the five months supply.
Gen. Pershing has not been held
back by lack of materials or sup
plies. said the Secretary. The con-
struction program in France has
proceeded satisfactorily. Whatever
delays have been experienced have
been due to conditions affecting
transportation of materials from
this side. These delays have not
been serious
