The Old And Now Crop or Potatoes.
JOHN WILL HALL,
Brooklyn. N. Y.

Rockville. Md. May 81. 1918.
There is large supply Of old potatoes
still in the cellars OF number Of the farm
ers and produce raisers in this county, and,
feeling that true patriotism Of our people
is stirred to the utmost, appeal to all
who have old potatoes to use and sell them
instead Of drawing on the new crop. making
1t your patriotic duty not to allow old pota-
toes or any other food to spoil or 90 to waste.
Eat and feed and sell old potatoes now
One man stated to me this morning that
the reason he did not ship and sell pota-
toes from the old crop was that they would
not bring anything. They may bring a
small price at this time, but It Is very
necessary that they be used. II you can
not 90, give"
Our soldiers are fighting for country,
liberty, humanity and right. Let not US
consider the costs in dollars and cents
when so much Is at stake. and especially
when the blood Of our men and fellow
citizens may be the price Of our neglect.
Respectfully.

Bulgarians and Turks to send assist
ance to the Austrians, thereby weaken
ing the line at other points. IF the
allies can achieve this and lessen op-
position along the river Vardar and
the Strums then the time, indeed,
would be auspicious for an allied Of
fensive on the limo Of these rivers
northward into Serbia and to the east
with the idea Of cutting lines Of COM
munication between the central powers
and Turkey and Bulgaria. That such
q success would do more than anything
else to weaken Bulgarian and Turkish
power has long been admitted, but top
ographical conditions as well as long
preparation absolutely to insure the
success Of any offensive endeavors have
deferred allied blows.
If allied prestige is to be forever
perpetuuted in the Balkans and the
dread fear Of tho Teuton removed the
allies will have to accomplish moro
than they have in military way in
this region. The Balkan peoples must
be made to believe that allied power
is always sufficient to protect them.

Putting 1t on the Entente.

Germany is playing her old game Of
accusing others Of crimes Of which she
is guilty or capable of being guilty
herself. This is one Of the most strik-
ing faults Of the Prussian psychology.
1t judges all others according to its
own lights. In the matter Of Mirbach's
murder at Moscow it is stated that q
German official account of the assassi-
nation concludes: "The result Of pre-
iminary inquiry permits the assump-
ton that agents in the service Of the
entente are implicated in the affair"
No evidence ID given, no suggestion Is
offered Of the basis for this astonish-
ing charge. It is simply BADLY stated,
evidently for effect at home. IF sus-
picion is the rule there is ample ground
for it on the other side Of the case.
Assuredly Germany has more to gain
from the sacrifice Of a diplomatic rep
resentative at Moscow, through reac-
ton and the acquisition Of ground
Of grievance, than the allies. Count
Won Mirbach was simply a representa-
tive Of Germany at the Russian seat Of
government. His replacement is an
easy matter. OF course, tho killing is
a dastardiy crime, but it Is by no
means justiAa,ble to suggest that the
allies would be not merely SO criminal
but 50 stupid as to plot the staying Of
a German representative at q capital
where already German interests are
paramount, and especially as Germany
is alert for excuses for further inroads
upon Russia.

statement Is forthcoming as to the
moves to be made. IF work was start
ed next week the temporary buildings
could not be finished in less than two
months, which would be the middle Of
September, and 1t would be probably
more nearly three months before they
could be occupied, with the best Of
luck with weather, workmen and ma
terials.
Meanwhile, there IL q net increase Of
500 government workers In this city
weekly, and It Is expected that $4,000
will como and stay during the next six
months. Accommodations for these
newcomers in private homes is becom-
ing more and more difficult. It is prac-
tically now impossible to house any
more within convenient walking dis
tance Of the government offices. Every
week, therefore, is adding to the con-
gestion and putting a heavier burden
upon the people. IF the new dormi-
tories directed by the government are
not ready inside Of ten weeks-and it
will probably be longer than that
5000 people viii have been added to
tho city's population, or about as many
as can be accommodated IN the largest
Of the structures planned. In these
circumstances It Is to be hoped that no
more time will be lost in putting the

Won Kuehlmann's Successor.

DR.. Richard Won Kuchlmann, it is
announced, has been permitted" to
resign his post as German minister Of
foreign affairs. Whether DR.. Won
Kuehlmann had to exert pressure to
induce the kaiser to accede to his res
ignation docs not appear. The fact
suf1ces that he goes, and II Is indi-
Gated that he win be succeeded by Ad-
miral Won Hintza, now minister at
Christiania and formerly minister to
Mexico. Nobody knows exactly<what
Won Hintxe thinks on the subject that
brought about Won Kuehlmann's sep
aration from the service, namely, the
basis Of peace. Being an admiral, his
views may be anticipated, however.
He is not likely to make such state
ment as Won Kuehlmann did in the
following terms:
"In view Of the magnitude Of this
war and the number Of powers, includ-
ing those from overseas, that are en-
gagged, its end can hardly be expected
through purely military decisions alone
and without recourse to diplomatic ne
gotiations."
There is not lacking evidence that
Won Kuehlmann was sacrificed, that he
made that statement under instruc-
tions or at least direct intimations
from the all highest as a means Of
testing out German sentiment. The in
slant reputation by the junkers and
military men was the kaiser's answer.
The fact that he goes to the diplo-
matte corps for foreign secretary Of
naval rank indicates that he is willing
to grant to the pam Germans another
go at military decision.

The Advance in Albania,

has the hour arrived for allied arm
les to strike on the battle lines stretch
ing from the Adriatic across Macedonia
to the east Of Salonikii
This is the question that naturally
arises In view Of long preparations and
renewed italian endeavor in Albania,
whore allied forces have pressed the
Austrians back for fifteen miles, cap
tured several towns, and, in fact, turn
ed the Austrian wing through smash
ing blows.
There Is . possibility that tho pres
ent movements Of the Italians are in
tended to remove possible immediate
menace from their base at Avlona,
which Is one Of the feeder ports for
the allies operating in Macedonia. Its
loss would work havoc with allied
preparations and continued operations
along the western section Of the line.
Should tho Austrians capture it the
allied armies would have to establish
nsw communication lines from points
in Greece OF supply all forces through
Haloniki, task herculean in character.
With the successes Of the past two
dsys tho Italians undoubtedly have re-
moved immediate danger.
With increased protection for Avlona
and the allies in complete control Of
the lower Adriatie they may yet at
tempt to deliver the blows long e1-
pectsd Of them with the direct pur-
pose Of weakening Bulgaria and Tur-
KY IN their Intentions to carry on

Snow and Revenue.

The new revenue measure, it is pre-
dicted, will not be on the books before
the snow flies. That is indefinite The
snow has no fixed time for flying. Its
first appearance in these parts this
year cannot be foretold. It may be
early, it may be late.
The point aimed at is election day.
The prediction in effect is that the
measure will not become law before
the next Congress is chosen.
Suppose it does not OF what i'm
portance will that bef The voters will
know long before then the character
Of the measure. They will be able to
tell what it win look like in completed
form, and thus pass upon it intelli-
gently at the polls In November.
There will be no squabble in COM
mittee, in open debate in Congress, or
on the stump in the campaign, over
the size Of the measure. Everybody
comedies that it must carry husky
sum Of money. The necessities are we'll
known. Both parties are Of the dis
position to keep the purse filed The
money is obtainable, and the people
are willing to pay.
But there will be a squabble all
along the line, and to the end, if the
bill presented to the House in August
is either class or sectional; and if it
should be both, the squabble will be
lively in the extreme. In that event
the long session will be certain to
merge in the short.
For this reason the ways and means
committee should do its work with all
care. It will not be hurried. In Civ
ing itself a months time it testified
both to the size and to the importance
Of the task. It will be preparing bill
not only for present, but in q measure
for future, purposes. It will be laying
foundations for revenue assessments to
follow if the war continues and makes
them necessary.
It is not class or q sectional war
so far as this country is concerned.
All classes and all sections were rep
resented in the declaration of hostili-
ties, and have been represented in the
votes for supplies for conducting
them. This fact, therefore, should be
recognized in finding whatever money
is needed to carry on and out the gen.
eral wish and purpose. The member
ship Of the ways and means committee
represents considerable experience in
revenue matters, and this is a time
when experience counts. ....

End the Deadlock!

Having provided by Continuing
resolution" for the immediate mainte-
nance Of the District Of Columbia, in
the absence of the enactment Of the
regular appropriation bill, the duty Of
Congress is not discharged toward the
National Capital. It is still incumbent
upon it to pass the annual measure as
promptly as possible, and to pass it,
moreover, in accordance with the or
ganic act, repeal of which in any par
tieular, and especially in its vital fea-
ture, should not be undertaken by in
direction.
As the case now stands, the bill has
passed both houses; the Senate has
eliminated the Objectionable clause
which, adopted by the House, puts an
end to the half-and-haf system Of Dis
trict financing; the conferees have
reached deadlock upon this and GER
tain other items of relatively small
consequence; the House has once in
sisted upon its amendment followed by
refusal Of the Senate to recede and
finally the House has voted to "ad-
here" By this form of action the
House in effect puts an end to the con-
ference. Under the rules Of Congress
the conferees cannot proceed without
instruction. It is useless for them to
continue. Only through a vote in the
House to reconsider the decision to ad-
here or by vote in the Senate to yield
can this deadlock be broken.
Nobody expects the Senate to recede
from It's position. The votes taken in
that body have been so emphatically
in favor of maintaining the present
system of District finance that there is
no ground for believing a change pos
sible- On the other hand, it is known
that a strong feeling prevails in the
House against further insistence upon
the unwarranted repeal of the half-and-
half provision, without warning, with
out hearing and, as far as information
respecting the case extends, without
debate. Ultimately it is felt that the
House must yield. It should do so
now, at the first opportunity for ac-
tion.
The continuing resolution provides
for the Districts bare administrative
maintenance for the months of July
and August. But it does not suffice
for the proper conduct of affairs. It
is mere makeshift, and under it many
important essential works are suspend
ed, salary adjustments affected by the
new appropriation measure are pre-
vented Insistence upon the deadlock
leads to numerous ills that grow great
er as the days pass.
Nothing is gained by delaying the
inevitable. IF motion were made in
the House today by one representing
the appropriations committee that the
House reconsider its vote to adhere it
would doubtless carry without discus
sion. The situation is perfectly we'll
understood and it is folly to prolong it.
