Baker on the Defensive


WHILE Lloyd George was facing the
most acute crisis of his career
Secretary Baker in this country was also
on the grill. The coincidence prompted
c. w. Gilbert, writing to The Tribune
from Washington, to recall that at the
beginning of the German offensive
Lloyd George referred almost petulant-
ly to the failure of the United States
to live up to expectations. Mr.. Gilbert
regarded it as singularly frank though
just criticism, (which hardly would
have been made unless it was impelled
by some such situation as that which
General Maurice charges in his letter"
Exasperation at delays in the produc
tion of war material mounted sharply.
Mr.. Gilbert declared that the output of
guns and shells was almost in as bad
way as the output of airplanes. The
reorganization of the ordnance DEPART
ment, he said, had left it still a mill.

any, definitely lodged where it should be
lodged.
The House Military Committee ex-
pressed satisfaction over the War De-
partments organization for aircraft
production in concluding hearings on the
billion dollar . estimates for aviation.
War Department officials gave the COM
mittee an accounting for the $640,000,-
600 already appropriated, showing that
$370,000,000 had been expended and that
contracts for construction had been
placed covering the balance of $780,
100000.
In an article in "Collier's Weekly"
Mark Sullivan put the blame up to the
interference of the military mind in the
factory and the idealistic use Of all the
factories as laboratories. He considered
that Borglum's charges Of graft had
made his report ridiculous, but he recog-

time he published his correspondence in
regard to the matter with Gutzon Bor-
glum, the sculptor, who declared that, in
his capacity as voluntary investigator,
he had been spied upon by high officials
in the War Department and had been
thwarted in his efforts, and that wit
nesses summoned to his. Office had been
threatened.
Besides informing Mr.. Borglum that
he had misconceived the nature of his
position in considering himself an Off
cial representative of the Administra-
tion, the President wrote to Senator
Thomas, who has been active in the air
craft matter, that every instrumentality
at the disposal Of the Department of
Justice would be used in the investiga-
tion if the charges made by Mr.. Bor-
glum proved worthy of serious considera-
tion. Only in this way, said the Presi-
dent, in accordance with suggestion of

u AINBRIDGE COLBY. of the Ship
ping Board, informed members of
the Bankers Club of New York that
the United States Shipping Board
was seeking the assistance of busi-
ness men to tighten it's overwhelming
burdens. A committee of the United
States Chamber Of Commerce and mem
Der of the Shipping Board are visiting
the shipbuilding centres to obtain double
shifts in all the yards. Mr.. Colby said
that even the Shipping Board did not ap-
preciate the gravity of the ocean trans
port situation until his return from Lon
don last winter with figures of the Brit
ish Admiralty on the ravages of the
U-boats. 1t had been, apparently, sur
prising as well as painful discovery to
Mr.. Colby to learn that the U-boats had
enjoyed the advantage Of long head
start on our shipbuilding.
That the sinkings of ships during 1917
exceeded the entire British and American
building programme for 1918 is undoubt-
edly true. Mr.. Colby reminded his hear
ers Of this fact, and added that the Unit
ed States could hardly build more than
100000 tons of deadweight shipping
this year. But there is brighter side
to the situation.
When the 157 shipyards now estab-
lished in the United States are working
New-York tribune., 1918-05-12

during the great drive, are matter of
record. This fact, however, did not re-
lieve the British government of the ne
cessity of dealing plainly with the public.
AS "The Westminster Gazette" pointed
out, the civilians have cheerfully SUBJ
mitted to the ministerial plea that it was
not in the public interest to publish GER
tain information and have not been ex-
acting in their demands for information.
"The Star" charged that unquestionably
there was something wrong with the
present government in its relations with
the army and navy.
Lloyd George answered these charges
in the House of Commons on Thursday
afternoon. He was loudly cheered as
he rose to speak. He denied that the
strength of the British fighting forces
had been misrepresented, asserting that
the figures which he had given were
taken from the official records at the
War Office. In like manner he refuted
all Of the charges specifically. Former
Premier Asquith's motion for the ap-
pointment of select committee to inves
tigate General Maurice's charges was re-
jected by vote of 293 to 1O6.

A/ hung fire for more than
week political events Of an
other character furnished
abundant sensation in this country and
Europe. In response to the aircraft
charges President Wilson ordered an in

threatened the overthrow of the British
Cabinet. The food crisis grew more Sc

situation in Austria Hungary more

British Cabinet Crisis
CEISMOGRAPHS recorded the shock
- on this side of the water when
Major General F. B. Maurice charged
LLOYD George and Andrew Bonar Law
with having misstated military facts in
the House of Commons. The incident
precipitated the gravest crisis in the
Premier's strenuous career The British
public was staggered at so brusque an
attack by so distinguished an officer on
the system of ministerial responsibility.
General Maurice staked the reputation
of his military life on the substantiation
Of his charges
It was General Maurice who discov-
cred a similitude between General Foch
on March FL and the tardy Butcher at
Waterloo. Immediately thereafter he
was removed as Chief Director of Mill
ta1y Operations. General Maurice
charged that the extension of the Brit
ish front below st. Quentin was mat
ter dealt with at the Versailles confer
ence, and that the impression existed
that the British army was stronger than
it really was. The implication was that
the Premier had given the wrong i'm
preston in defending his government
on the charge of having weakened the
British forces in France.
General Maurice said that the minis
terial utterances referred to were
known to a large number of soldiers to
be untrue, that this knowledge was
breeding dstrust of the government,
and that it had been implied that the
British forces had failed to hold their
ground against inferior numbers. These
facts, he said, had tended to undermine
the morale of the army at a critical
time.

"SiCilian VeSperS"
II HE Imperial German Vice-Chancel-
= lor explained in the Reichstag that
the Ukrainian government, unable to
keep order, invited the iron hand of
Germany. He said further that plot
having been discovered, aiming at the
assassination of all German officers, i'm

and send it to the Fatherland.
Barely enough food will be obtained
from Ukraine to prevent material re-

1T WAS not considered probable that
the Germans would undertake a new
offensive against Italy, credible reports
having been received that all German
troops had been removed from the Ital-

canoe was accorded the news of Emperor
Charless transit to the Italian theatre.
The suggestion was offered, indeed, with
semblance Of gravity, that he might be
safer with the army as a bodyguard
than without it in Vienna.
Little more was heard of the German
peace drive, which, it is believed, is an
alternative of last resort in case of dis

peace overtures was characteristic of

nized true bill in the accusation that
the Aircraft Board had led the public
and the Allies into false hope, and ex-
pressed doubt whether the employment
of press agents is proper use Of public
money. He says that with nothing to
start with, the Aircraft Board built an
organization which, measured in financial
operations, would be nearly equal to
building the United States Steel Corpo-
ration from the ground up.
"The system of American quantity
production will produce huge quantity
of planes at the end Of a long period Of
preparation" Mr.. Sullivan asserts, "but
the element which existed in the present
situation was the need of some planes
in short time. And that element was
of necessity neglected when the system
of American quantity production was
adopted"
There is special point in a sentence
that Mr.. Sullivan quotes from the editor
of "The Aeroplane":
Standardization is dangerous game
to play with so immature a product as
the aeroplane and the aero engine"
The opinion that nothing startling was
likely to come of the aircraft investiga-
tion was expressed by c. w. Gilbert.
Writing to The Tribune from Washing
ton, he said:
"The whole aircraft production episode is
one of the most amazing in the history of
government. The board never had any
real equipment for its task but enthusiasm
and self-confdence. 1t had neither organ
ization nor executive capacity. 1t was COM
posed of dreamers, who had great dream,
and the censorship kept every one from
pinching them and reminding them that
they were not awake"
