LONDON, July 1.-THE Kaiser suffers

drove him to order DR.. Richard Won
Kuehlmann. at that time Foreign Secre-

which he declared German victory
could not be obtained by military force.
This is the view Of a leading Dutch
man, well versed in international af-
fairs. who. from the vantage point Of
Holland, has had the opportunity Of
watching German domestic politics. He
said:

which reveals that the Socialists made
policy.
The reasons for Count Won Hert-
ling's appeal for unity on the internal
front are made clear also. Philip
Scheidemann. leader of the majority
Socialists. replying to the Chancellors
original speech, denounced the Ger
man policy in Russia, regarding which
he declared
The Chancellor referred to provoca-
tive speeches by enemy statesmen; I
refer to our provocative deeds in the
east. to the treatment Of the border pso-
Piles. The hrst step which enemy coun-
tries are expected to make Is thereby
rendered extremely difficult"
Papal Peace Note Pointed ont.
Scheidemann discussed Count Won
Hertling's reference to the Papal peace
note and pointed out that the Pope un-
mistakably wrote Of Belgium, while in
reply the Belgian question is only
vaguely referred to by Won Hertling He
| added.

known clearly their peace aims Were
Germany to define her position on this
point then the peoples OF the Entente
Powers would force their Governments
to make peace. They could no longer

He was for period Editor of this

TRANSPORTING OUR TROOPS

The world has been astonished at
the great number of American SOL
,diers transported to Europe the last
half year. The number now approxt-
mates 100000, and the loss of life In
transporting them has been almost in
finitesimal.
The success with which we have
moved our troops from the scattered
camps in this country and across 5000
miles of ocean to the battle front is
great evidence of American efficiency.
We have not only surprised our enc
mics; we have surprised our friends
and ourselves.
The British controller of shipping,
Sir Joseph Maclay, speaks of this
movement across the sea as "a trans
port miracle" We have been inclined
to attribute this achievement solely to
our Navy and our shipping, but the
British controller speaks in high
praise Of the share the American rail-
roads had in the work. He says:
IF the American railroads had not
been operated with success the whole
transport movement might have failed
because it was essential to quick
transportation that the troops
should be ready for the ships"
Director General McAdoo seems jus.
titled in his statement that while the
development Of the policy of the Rail-
road Administration requires time,
progress has ben made toward the
goal.

nounced that the Fourth Liberty Loan
bonds will bear AZ per cent interest
The Secretary has been insistept
that the Government interest rate
should be stabilized at ~ per cent
He points out that raise in the rata
of interest of only one-fourth of 1 per
cent on $4,000, 100000 of Government
bonds would mean an annual increase
of SIS 100000 in interest charges, and
that this money would have to be
raised by increased taxation and paid
by the people of the country. It would
not be paid by one class only, because
there are consumption as we'll as 9TH
er kinds Of taxes, and the consumption
taxes reach every class of people.

retary McAdoo during the Third Lib
erty Loan campaign, 1--WE should now
make stand for the financing of our
Government during the period of this
war at stabilized rate of interest,

that all business and all investments
may be adjusted to that basis, and so
that we ourselves may protect our
selves against successfully increased
rates of interest on Government

DRAFT AGES Wild BE Is TO A.
YEARS UNDER BAKERS NEW BILL

Washington, Aug 3-Secretary Bak-
er announced today that he would re-
commend to congress extension of the
draft ages to a minimum of 1S years
and maximum of As years.
This was also announced today by
Senator Chamberlain, chairman of the
senate military committee, following
conference with the secretary.
Senator Chamberlain said the new
army bill embodying these ages had
been completed by Secretary Baker
and would be introduced simultaneous
ly In both houses of congress Monday.
Senator Chamberlain said the bill
would be taken up by his committee at
once with a view to a report when con-
eress resumes its regular sessions late
tnis month. Baker and Provost Mar
shal General Crowder, Senator Cham
berlain said there would be some op-
position in both houses. He was con-
fident, however, that the bill would be
passed without unusual delay.
Senator Chamberlain explained thai
under the provisions of the bill men
between Is and 21 years would be d.
vfded into three classes, subject to call
by the President in such sequence Of
years as he prescribed. The senator
added that the calling of men between
the ages of 81 and IS would be made
by similar plan. He expressed the
opinion. however, that the younger
men-those between 1S and 21 years
would be called first and that It
would not be necessary to call those
between 81 and As.
Senator Chamberlain said he did
not know just what effect the work or
fight order issued some time ago bv
General Crowder would have under
the new arrangement.
Inquiry was made as to the number
of men still available under the selec-
tive service law and the senator's were
assured, it was learned, that at the
present rate at which the men are be-
Ing called, there was no prospect of
immediate exhaustion of the man pow-
er supply
