Mr.. McADOO is AMUSED
BY POLITICIANS THEORIES
Retiring Only for Reasons Given,
Secretary Tells Chattanoogans.
Has Never Lied to Public.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. November
ss.-T feel that owe 1t to my old
friends here to speak frankly and to
say to them something I have never
said before" said William G. McAdoo.
Secretary Of the Treasury and di-
rector general Of railroads. who has
been on a tour of inspection in the
south. at an informal dinner rendered
to him at a local club last night.
1T was not pleasant for me to
speak frankly to the American people
as 1 did in my letter to President
Wilson. and to talk of my personal
affairs. but I want to say to you that
those reasons are the exact reasons
why l am retiring from public life.
There are no other reasons. / have
been amused by the theories of poll
ticians and some newspapers. In all
the six years / have been in office
can truthfully say that have yet to
lie to the American people. I have
never misrepresented anything and
would not for all the fortunes of the
ages lie to them. If any man owes
anything to the nation it is to be
square and truthful. When politicians
learn that it pays to be on the level,
then they will elevate America and
politics.

BIG LIVE STOCK EXHIBIT
TO LEAD ALL OTHERS
475,O0O in Prizes Hung Up at
Weeks International Exposition,
Chicago, Beginning Tomorrow.

CHICAGO, November 29.-Prixe-
winning live stock from such widely
separated districts a. New York.
California, Mississippi and Canada
will be on exhibition at the lnternA-
tional Live Stock Exposition which
will open here tomorrow and continue
seven days. Prizes will total $4,000.
1.-THE worlds greatest live stock
show" is the way those In charge
characterize the eighteenth annual
exposition, which has a larger entry
list and will be conducted on larger
scale than any of the preceding shows.
Officials of the exposition say that
despite the war drain on this coun-
try's live stock supplies. America still
is in position to assist Europe IN re-
plenishing her depleted stocks. Cattle
raising. which had dropped to low ebb
in 1914, gained fresh impetus under
the stimulating influence OF war
over. stock-raising Is given additional
incentive by the need OF America
furnishing a big percentage Of the
food for stricken countries OF Europe
during the next six months.
Officials predict that war prices for
meat will continue for some time.
A department given over to food
economies and conservation will be
under the direction of Miss Catherine
Mckay. dean of household science at
Iowa State College. Lectures will be
given on how to select coarser cuts of
meats and how to prepare them into
delicious dishes
A big corn show in connection with
the exposition is intended to encour-
age greater care in selection OF seed
corn.
Representatives Of the Department
Of Agriculture will attend the meet
ing, Secretary Houston advised. Sec
rotary McAdoo also tentatively ac-
copied an invitation to deliver an
address.

PROTESTS AGAINST ORDER
LOWER GERMAN FLAG
Won Reuter- Says It Is Not In Keep
ing With idea Of Chivalry Be-
tween Honorable Opponents.

LONDON. Thursday, November 28.-
Admiral Won Reuter-, admiral of the
German fleet, which surrendered to
the allies November 81, has protested
against the order of Admiral Sir
David Beatty of the British fleet, di-
recting that the German flag be haul
ed down. He points out, according to
an admiralty statement, that intern
ment in British harbor is, under the
terms of the armistice equivalent to
internment in a neutral port, where,
in accordance with precedent, flags
are allowed to remain hoisted. He
adds:
II esteem it unjustifiable and con-
trary to international custom to order
the striking Of the nag on German
ships. Moreover. in my opinion, the
order to strike the flag was not in
keeping with the idea Of chivalry be-
tween two honorable opponents"
Admiral Beatty, calling attention to
the fact that the armistice merely
suspended hostilities and that q state
of war still exists between Germany
and the allies, has replied:
Under the circumstances no enemy
vessel can be permitted to fly it's ma
tional ensign in British ports while
under custody"
