Washington

The government ut Washington is
preparing to take control of the oil
supply under the fuel administration.
A man has been selected to take
charge, and his name will be made
public with the announcement of the
governments decision.
"There is plenty of labor in the Unit
ed States for the army and for indus
try. 1t needs proper adjustment, how
ever" said Secretary of Labor Wilson
ut Washington. Only per cent of
the nations workers will be taken by
the army in the first year, Secretary
Wilson estimated.
Vigorous exception was taken by the
department of justice ut Washington
to complaints that the government is
too lenient in dealing with enemy
aliens. In statement it was declared
the government is exercising rigorous
severity"
The treasury decision that in max
ing inventories for excess profits and
income tax returns, dealers in mer-
chandise or securities might use the
cost price or market value, whichever
was lower, is being reviewed by the
denartment Of Justice at Washington

Foe to be Equal But Not Master.
For such arrangements and cove.
nants we are willing to fight and to-
continue to fight until they are
achieved: but only because we wish
the right to prevail and desire just
and stable peace such as can be So
cured only by removing the chief
provocations to war, which this pro-,
gram does remove. We have no jeal-
ousy of German greatness and there
is nothing in this program that Inn
pairs it. We grudge her no achieve
pacific enterprise such as have made
her record very bright and very envi-
able. We do not wish to injure her
or to block in any way her legitimate
influence or power. We do not wish
to fight her either with arms or with
hostile arrangements Of trade, If she
is willing to associate herself with US
and the other peace loving nations Of
the world in covenants of justice and
law and fair dealing. We wish her
only to accept place of equality
among the peoples of the world-the
new world in which we now live-in-
stead Of place Of mastery.
Must Know Who Is Represented.
Neither do we presume to suggest
to her any alterations or modification
Of her institutions. But it is neces-
sary, We must frankly say and nee
essary as preliminary to any intel
ligent dealings with her on our
part, that we should know w:lom her
spokesman speak for when they
speak to us, whether for the reichs-
tag majority or for the military
party, and the men whose creed is
| imperial domination.
Aims Clear; Ready for Test.
We have spoken now, surely, in
terms too concrete to admit of any
further doubt or question. An evil
dent principle runs through the.
whole program l have outlined. 1t
is the principle of justice to all
peoples and nationalities, and their
right to live on equal terms of liberty
and safety with one another, whether
| they be strong or weak. Unless this
principle be made its foundation no
part Of the structure of international
Justice can stand. The people of tie
United States could act upon no
other principle, and to the vindica-
tion Of this principle they are ready
to devote their lives, their honor
and everything that they possess.
The moral climax of this, the cul-
minating and final war for human
liberty has come, and they are ready
to put their strength, their own
highest purpose. their own integrity
and devotion to the test

PLANS GUERILLA DEFENSE
Russia May Resume Military Opera
tons Of That Kind.


Petrograd, Jan. Sat Russian army

Gil is being held. Steps are being dis
cussed that may lead to a resumption
by Russia, not of military operations
on vast scale, such as offensives of
the Brusiloff type, but of active, ener-
getic guerilla defense Of the Russian
lines.
In this defense Russia does not ask
Allied aid. She rejects it. even.
She proposes to throw chaos into
the teeth Of any military move the
Germans may make. She will give the
Teuton commanders the thing they
fear more than organized armies-a
crippled land of endless vastness, that
has no food-no transportation. and
whose productiveness is paralyzed. a.
land, peopled by human guerillas, "ev-
