MY BUY SHALL LIE WHERE F0E MAN LEFT HIM
 ROOSEVELT

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-Colonel Roosevelt today authorized the an nouncement that he and Mrs. Roosevelt would visit the grave of their son, Lieutenant Quentin Roosevelt, in France at the spot where he fell after his airplane had been shot down by the Germans. Colonel Roosevelt made public protest he sent to General March, chief of staff of the United States army, against the planned removal of his sons body to this country.
 General March consented that Lieutenant Roosevelt's body should remain in the grave in which it was buried by the Germans, and instructed General Pershina to carry out Colonel RooseVelt's wishes.
 In his letter to General March, \ Colonel Roosevelt referred to the report that the American dead would be taken home after the war, and continued:
 Mrs. Roosevelt and wish to en- ter most respectful but most em- phatic protest against the proposed course, so far as our son, Quentin, is concerned. We have always be- lieved that:
 "'Where the tree falls,
 "'There let it lie.'
 We know that many good per- sons feel entirely different, but to us it is painful and narrowing, long after death, to move the poor boy from which the soul has fled. We greatly prefer that Quentin shall continue to lie on the spot where he fell in battle and where the foe man buried him.
 After the war is over, Mrs. Roosevelt and intend to visit the grave and then to have a small stone put up, saying it is put up by us, but not disturbing what has already been erected to his memory by his friends and American com rades in arms"

 The total of deaths due to the in fluenza epidemic in this country is not known, the announcement said, as only the 46 cities for which figures were given, report vital statistics to the census bureau. The greatest mortality due to the epidemic, in proportion to population. was 7.5 per 1000 in Phila- delphia, and the next greatest, 6.7 per thousand, was reorted from Baltimore.

Sixty-third Congress
Has Oratory Record
Nine Years Debate Fills Third
of Total Reports for Forty
three Years

WASHINGTON. March 3.-Oratory
III Congress has increased to such an
extent that the volume Of debate in the
last nine years constitutes one-third
of the 100000 pages of the "Congres-
sional Record" issued since publica-
ton was begun forty-th years ago.
This was disclosed by the House Ap
preparations Committee on Saturday in
making public statistics compiled by
Fred 1rland and George c. Latferty, Of
neral House reporters.
The statement shows that the high
water mark was reached in the Sixty
third Congress, when 81 ,216 pages were
used, as against 8432 in the Forty
third Congress. The record of the
Sixty third made thirty-one threc-inch
volumes, which laid one on top of the
other would make pile nearly nine
feet high. The quantity of product the
official reporters of debates turn out in
the House is now three times as great
as it was when that reporting corps
was established in 1875.
"There is no other place in the
world" said Mr.. Irland, "where man
making speech at any time can look
1T over almost as soon as he finishes it.
And while the salaries of other House
officers have been Increased, there has
been no increase whatever in the COM
pensation of the reporters of debates" "

Says Government
Must Soon Pay
For Advertising
War Stamp Official Urges
1t; Liberty Loan Col
league Opposed

If the government needs guns or
a thousand other items of material
needed to carry on the war, it goes to
market and buys them. The only thing
it asks as gift is advertising. That it
solicts, through various agencies, from
publishers or from advertisers, who
have to pay for it.
Frank Finney, who has charge of the
advertising department of the War Saw
ings Stamp Committee of New York,
and who has been remarkably success
full in getting space donations, declares
that the government ultimately must
come to policy Of buying its own
space. But Guy Emerson, publicity
manager of the Liberty Loan Commit
tee of this reserve district, expresses
the fear that a government appropria-
tion to buy space for advertising it's
needs would at once create subsidized
press.
"The Editor and Publisher" in its
current issue, quotes Mr.. Finney and
Mr.. Emerson extensively on both sides
of the question, and carries an inter
view with Chester S. Lord, former man
aging editor of "The Sum-" who de-
clares "thc freedom of the press would
not be menaced in the slightest degree
by paid advertising campaign"
Emerson's Objections
Summarizing his statement, Mr..
Emersons objections to buying adver
tising space are as follows:
1t would require an appropriation of
$100, 100000
The government could not discri,ni-
nate; it would have to buy space in
every publication.
Every editor who got a contract
would become a government partisan:
every editor who did not get one would
be foe, and the free press of America
would at once become a subsidized
press.
The only effect would be to throw
monkey wrench into the works of the
present plan of getting free space in
reading matter columns and donations
OF advertising space from regular
patrons OF newspapers and magazines.
TO this Mr.. Lord answers that
bankers, many of whom were left out
on government loans, but did not on
that account turn against the country
or the Administration. And "The
Editor and Publisher" editorially sup
ports that view.
Not Matter Of Patronage

whole matter on a basis Of political
patronage. Do the purchasing boards

Brazilian State
Really q Republic
Associated Press Correspondencel

PORTO ALEGRE, Brazil, Jan. 81. .-
The Brazilian State OF Rio Grande do
Sui, which was to have been the nucleus
OF the proposed German protectorate
on this continent, has a system of gov
ernment that is interesting, because the
state really is q republic. with its own
president. court systems and army, and
althoughslt is a member OF the federal
union known as the United States of
brazil, It's President has more consti-
tutional power than the President of
Brazil
Almost tho first article in the con-
sttution provides that the state will
not permit the intervention of the fed
cral government except in the few spec
med cases noted in Article 6 of the fed
cral constitution. 1t then goes on TO
provide that the supreme direction of
the government and its administration
shall rest in the President.
The President is chosen bv direct
vote of the people, and there the gov
erhing powers of the people cease lie
is elected Tor Ave years. and may not
be reelected except by threc-fourths of
all the votes cast but an amateur could
rot fail to have himself reelected if he
exercised the powers at his command.
The present President has things so
well organized that there never is the
silghtest doubt of his victory at the
polls.
Perhaps the most interesting feature
of the government machinery is tho
manner in which the state laws are
promulgated. The President merely
writes out the proposed law and pub
lishes it in Porto Allegro, the capital of
the state, and it is given publicity in
all the municipalities. Three months
after the original publication the mu-
nlclpal authorities send to the Prcsi-
dent all suggestions or criticisms which
have been voiced in their districts. The
PRESIDENT may then change the draft in
accordance with the criticisms or he
may ignore them, and his draft be-
comes s. law upon being published in

Workers Will
Defeat U-Boat,
Hurley Is Sure
Shipyards to Turn Out
1900 Vessels This Year,
He Says

The United States Shipping Board
before this year is at an end. will have
built ] 500 vessels to beat the subma-
rine and Germany.
This was the prediction made last
night by Edward NJ. Hurley. chairman
of the board, who spoke at the benehy
given by the New York Real Estate
Board at the Hippodrome for the Wal
Camp Community Fund.
He also said that during the month of
March the boards yards would put into
commission twcnty-six vessels and
launch thirty-four more.
Mr.. Hurley made his address follow
ing the playing Of the "We Are Coming''
march. dedicated by Lieutenant John
Philip Sousa. it's composer, to the Ship
ping Board, and played by the "March
Kings" band from the naval training
station
That wonderful march did me good"
said Mr.. Hurley, "und it sounded to me
like q victory march. Every one of
our employees would be inspired if he
heard it,

and the support of the American people.

that will be produced this year.
"Wc have 13O yards, 700 WAYS and
100000 men. With these we believe
that we can turn out 900 ships this
year. This winter has been the most
severe in many years, but we are now
progressing and hitting our stride
This month we will complete twenty
six ships and launch thirty-four.
"All the worlds records in shipbuild
ing were smashed recently, when the
shipyard at Seattle turned out $500
ton ship in sixty-four days. From re-
ports that | have received from the
Eastern yards / believe that they are
preparing to beat the Pacific Coast
record"
at is extremely gratifying to know
that we have reserve working force
of 100000 men who are ready to take
their places in the yards as soon as
their time shall come, and it is even
more gratifying TO know that the
hearts of the American people, so many
of whom have boys on the seas or in
the trenches, are wishing us godspeed
in our work"
Others who appeared at the benefit
were detachments from the 30Sth In
fantry, who gave their setting up exer-
cises, bayonct drills and "A Night at
Camp Upton" showing the way the
cantonment goes to bed; Mary Garden,
Fred Stone, Harry Houdini and the or

Emerson thinks a Federal advertising
manager would have to do.
I'm his suggestion that newspapers
which might believe themselves un.
fairly treated in the placing of gov
ernment advertising would permit that
to embitter them against the govern
ment and turn them to policy of
hostility. Mr.. Emerson brings an in
dictment of so grave nature that it
cannot be overlooked.
"The course of the American press
in this great war fully refutes this
charge. The policy of paid advertising
by tho government has nothing to do
with politics or with subsidizing news

best interests of the nation at war"
