AN EX-PRESiDENT AND
 A FRENCH BRO

A few days ago there appeareS.F in the New York newspapers interviews with Col Theodore Roosevelt of the United States of America and Marsha Jcffre of France in which each told the part he thought America played in determining the great conflict.
 The interviews appeared on the same day and are here presentd as a remarkable contrast of an ex-presi- dent ashamed of his country and a military hero of another nation. who delights to do honor to it:

I am not planning to spend any birthdays or Christmas dinner celebra- tions in the United States for the im- mediate future. But I had better get off this line of thought, or I will soon drop into some of that mock heroic heavy stuff which all of us so cor dially dislike.
 At frequent intervals over here we really have some fascinating life, and at all times, despite necessary evils which must be encountered, we manage to enjoy ourselves pretty well. A dis contented man is found so seldom a-a to be kind of curiosity.
 Tn one respect at least. have bees a disappointment to the other officers in my battalion. Most of them come from the northwest, with a few fror~ Chicago, New York and other northern and eastern sections. They all have, and had their own well grounded ideas about southern people, and a man who was born and lived always in Ala bama. They knew all about us, our lives, our customs and our manners, and it was distinctly up to me to live up to their preconceiyed notions But in one respect at least I failed to make good. 1 did not say you alP and 'y'alI when referring to single person. They think l have broken precedent and tramp1ed underfoot a cherished tradition. But this is just an indication of what the army does. It gives us all a clearer understanding of our fellow man of both high and low degree and acQuaints us with our brothers from every other section of the country. Inestimable good will come of this. and in years after the war much of the petty and spiteful sectionism which is still factor in national affairs, will forever disappear.

IT WAS like heart to heart" tall that Leon c. Bradley (now Lieutenant
 S Bradley, if you please) and I usec to have over our desks, which sat very
 near and very close to each other, in the old days down at The Age Herald was that letter I had from this fine young soldier man yesterday written frcm Somewhere in France"
 It was good to know how our paper appears to one of the staff lover there, '' with the noise of the cannon, the rush of the sharpneI, the binding bullets and the terrible business of war all about him, and I'm going to let you read some parts of the letter from Lieutenant Brad ley, which I enjoyed so much:
 The date is June D. Company M, 164th infantry, American expeditionary forces, France:
 Your letter came some two weeks ago, put due to the stress of certain neces- sary duties l have been unable to an- swer sooner. I am sure that you will understand that my delay was in no manner an indication of lack of appre- ciatiof. for I certainly was most pleased to hear from you again. I am led to believe from what you said that the last letter I wrote you went astray. l do not recall just what dates nor how many letters I have written you, but I know that have answered every letter have received Since being in France.
 First, let me congratulate you upon the honor you received at the camou Haze hall or carnival. Certainly, for ence, at least an honor of this kind was properly bestowed.

AUSTRIAN PREMIER DELIVERS ADDRESS
 IN THE RE|CHSRATH
Declares Internal PrOpa- ganda Methods of Aus tria's Enemies Are
 Absurd

Amsterdam. July 1S-Dr. Seydler, the Austrian premier, delivered his expected address in the lower house of the Aus trial Reichsrath Tuesday, says Vienna telegram. The prime minister, the mes sage adds, was received by the Czechs with uproarious shouts and by the Germans with loud applause.
 Speaking on the situation in Austria Hungary, Dr. von Seydler said:
 'The internal propaganda methods of our enemies are so absurd that they only testify to their profound ignorance of our conditions. These arrows will re- bound against our unshakable devotion to the dynasty, the loyalty of our citi- zens to the state and the firm internal cohesion of our state within the frame work of the monarchy.
 We should look cheerfully into the fu- ture In unity with our loyal allies, we shall be able to force the end of the world war
 Our intimate community with them. which we hope to strengthen and extend for the future, especially the old and well proved alliance with the German emp1re constitutes TOT us, as well as TOT our allies. the best guarantees that we shall maintain for all time our place among the states of the world and be able to ensure for our peoples condi- tions of free and beneficient develop ment.
 But they are far from constituting a menace to other states and will rather prove themselves to be a useful and et- fective link in shaping the future peace ful relations of a reconciled world"
 The occasion of the speech was the re- assembling of the lower house after a foar months recess. The galleries were crowded for the occasion. President Gross, in welcoming the members, re- ferred to the '.regrettable Interruption in the activities of the house and ex- pressed the hope that the present ses- sion would serve to safeguard and es- tablish the constitutional position.
 The house by two-thirds majority resolved immediately to begin the frst reading of the provisional budget joint ly with the discussion of urgent aues- tons regarding various events of domes- tic and foreign policy. as well as the food situation.

SAVINGS IN WAR DAYS

How it may be in other parts of the country is only vaguely known in this city, but in New York state the under standing is. in Ohio and New England the stupendous contributions which the people have made to Liberty Loans, the Red Cross funds, and to other benefac- tions together with the large amounts which are now being daily put into War Savings or Thrift Stamps have not ma terially affected the deposits in the saw ings banks. These appear to be almost normal. The explanation that is given for the ability to maintain savings bank deposits at a time when there are so many calls upon the public Tor funds Is found in the fact that the great body ot those who work for wages and who are depositors in the savings banks are now receiving such high wages that notwith standing the increased cost of living, they are able to buy Liberty Bonds, make subscriptions to the Red Cross, purchase Thrift Stamps and still have left some thing to deposit in the savings bank. If there were no call upon the people for their support of Liberty Bond offerings and Red Cross funds and other benefac . tionc, then the probabilities are that. having the high wages in view, the de- posits in the savings banks would in cerase enormously.
 Those who have been observing the utilization by the American people of their earnings since the war began arc now convinced that as whole the pso- pie have learned the first principles Of true saving. and have done this wthout

 becoming parsimonious or stinsy in their expenditures. The lesson once learned will not be forgotten after the war IS over. Hereafter when the new financ- ing which MT. McAdoo is to undertake begins it is probable that there will De some withdrawal of funds from savings banks. For there still remains feeling among the savings banks depositors that it is good plan to have some saved money so placed that it can be secured at any time. Although the government sold in the past F months about $l0000 ,OOO.OVo of bonds and issued treasury certificates in large amounts, nevertheless the saw ings banks ot New York city at the be- ginning of July held only $s,O00o00 less deposits than was the case year ago And yet notwithstanding this small loss in deposits. there has been large in- crease in the number of new accounts the official report being that 21,O0o new accounts were opened in the past year.
