would be highly improper and totally
out of place for anybody to try to
stop Colonel Roosevelt from criticizing
the administration. In the first place,
when the country is at war honest

ed Intervention in Russia Mr.. Creel
replied:
Because this country feels that
Japan ought not to do anything that
might detract from our war aims,
which are opposed to all spirit of con-
quest, unless Japan is first asked by
the Russians who were Originally our
comrades in war, to protect them. We
have comrades in this war but no real
allies"
Asked whether he did not believe
meetings such as the recent gatherings
of Irish radicals in Madison Square
Garden should be prohibited, Mr. Creel
replied that free speech is guaran-
teed by the constitution and the gov
eminent can not act until a law has
been violated.

1t would have been dishonorable for
the United States to have modified
its armies while seeking to avoid con-
flict by an appeal to international law,
asserted George Creel, chairman of the
committee on public information, in
explaining in an address at New York
city Sunday nifht what he had meant
by declaring in a recent speech that
he was proud the United States had
entered the war unprepared.
The administration had two courses
to pursue after the German outrages
on our vessels at sea-" he said. "One
was to appeal to international law,
which was the right of the neutral
nations; the other was to appeal to
arms and to go to war with Germany.
Had Mr.. Wilson begun preparations
for war while asking for arbitration in
law, he would not have been sincere,
He would have been draking the sword
with one hand, while holding out the
other for a signed agreement.

Germany Limits American Prisoners
Money intended for interned civil
ians and prisoners of war in Germany
should be RENTED through the Blu
reap of Prisoners Relief, American
Red Cross, Washington, d. c. Remit
tances so made will probably not be
delivered to addresses by the German
government in cash, but in the form
of credit on prison exchanges.
According to the Spanish ambassa-
dor at Berlin, the German war depart
ment states that there are no restric-
lions in regard to the remittance OF
money for civilian and military pris-
oners. Such money is placed to pris-
oners' credit, and may be spent under
the following regulations:
Military prisoners-Sixty marks a
week may be spent by officers and
others of similar rank. 80 marks a
week by non-commissioner officers
and men.
"Civilian prisoners-Sixty marks a
week for men of better social position;
so marks weekly for others"
Unnecessary Farm Machinery.
Nearly 1000 types and sizes of farm
implements which have been gradual
ly developed by manufacturers during
peace-time competition have been
recommended for elimination during
the war by committees of the National
Implement and Vehicle Association.
The object, according to statement
by the Council of National Defense,
is to conserve materials, labor, capital,
and manufacturing facilities for war
use.
Delivery of Locomotives.
Delivery of the first of the 1925 To-
comotives ordered by the Railroad Ad-
ministration will start in July and de-
liveries will continue monthly during
the rest of the year. The locomotives
are of six standard types, with one
heavy and one light style in each type
They vary in weight from 100000 lbs

will cost about $60,000,00O.
