CREEI.
ON the Portland OreRonian.

From the Portland Oregonian.
The Oregonan has letter from a
leading Journalist OF Washington which
has a paragraph referring to a person
often in the public eye, and it is here
reproduced:
THE committee on iublic information
is headed by an extremely self-satisiled
individual. who sees the President
oftener than does Colonel House, and
so far as the interest Of the press is
concerned is all-pOwerful."
The mystery Of President Wilson's
close attachment for certain strange
personalities is not to be solved. Mr..
Creel sees the President more frequent
ly than Colonel House sees him; and
there is a general notion that Colonel
House sees him often enough.
George Creel is spending hundreds Of
thousands Of dollars Of the govern
ments money in his bureau of public
information. The original idea was
that it should coordinate the news Of
the various departments, but the State,
War and Navy Departments have, in ef-
feet repudlated Creel and handle their
own publicity. II there is a newspaper
in the United states which thinks well
Of Creel, It is keeping its good opinion
TO itself. II there is a public Official,
except the President. who is satisfied

The BohemiGus are continuing their
1ght against Hapsburg and Hohenzol-

Ing Germany and the Kaiser Driven

streets, cheering for Lloyd George. and
Premier Clemenceau, but most Of all
for President Wilson In spite of the
death, Imprisonment or enforced ab-
sence with the colors Of practically all
their able-bodled men. they have made
things so hot that the garrison Of
Prague has been reinforced. probably
by companies Of Prussian machine

tyrant Of central Europe seeks when
threatened by his outraged subjects.

FIVE MILLION INSIGNIFICANT
From the scientifc Amerlcan.

| From the Scientific American
One year ago the strength OF the
American army was 2l2,034 today it IS
1852, 725. Our population is conceded
to be 100 millions for purposes Of dis
cussion. So in spite OF the heavy in
crease which we have scored for our
armies, we have put but i.6 per cent OF
our numbers in uniform
Yet we talk Of supreme efforts In
terms Of ''gigantis' army Of five mil
lion men, May we not well pause 10
realize that before we shall nave
equaled the performance Of the thr-
teen original colonies we shalt have
increased this figure by half, that be-
fore we shall have put ourselves on a
par with the beaten CoEfederacy we
shall have doubled it? May we not
give thought to the fact that in order
10 put forth an effort duplicating nat
Of the North. we must raise an army Of
1874 million men
II is absurd to look with complacence
upon the insignificant military aid
which the average American has in his
mind when he contemplates our share
| In the great war There are plenty OF
people now living who fought in the
/ Civil war; plenty more who lived
through it, If we would but remind
ourselves that before we shall have
equaled the achievement Of their gen
Grafton, we must still put liz million
troops in the field perhaps we should
look with less complacence upon what
we have done. and with less misgiv-
mss upon the raising Of the next mil
lion, or the millions after that.
