WHITE HOUSE
REMAINS CALM
UNDER ATTACK
Advisers Say President At.
tributes Criticism to Lack
Of Understanding.

There is no disposition at the White
House to get panicky over the Cham
berlain attack. AS outlined by per-
sons in the full confidence Of the
President on these matters, his posi-
ton is as follows:
Mistakes have been made, but they
have not been repeated.
The War Department cannot tell the
whole story because to tell It would
reveal the things the German general
stan Is most anxious to know.
Senator Chamberlain's attack is the
result of bad feeling growing out OF
Misunderstanding.
| 1t has been pushed and furthered
for political reasons.
Theodore Roosevelt and his support
ers are responsible above all others
for this.
President Not Alarmed.
| The White House Is taking great
comfort from the fact that such Re-
publicans as Taft. Root. Hughes,
Burton, Weeks, and Hiram johnson
have so far kept out of the fight,
ana are In effect, supporting the Presi-
| dent.
So far as the military situation of
| which the Chamberlain and Roose-
welt critics complain is Concerned, this
much may be stated:
The President will back IN secre-
tary Baker Just as he backed up Sec
retary Daniels in the many attacks
that were made upon him.
\ He believes that noI
Will turn out equally well.
The Immediate emergency" of
which Secretary Baker has spoken
frequently is alluding to supply short
| ages Is this:
The United States originally did not
intend to take an active part in the
war until next year. French demands
called for the dispatch of the PERISH
ing expedition and subsequent forces.
Troops have been moved within
the last few weeks at a rate never
before contemplated as possible.
Their presence in France, even
though they are not yet nearly in
condition to fight. was demanded by
the Russian situation and the Ital-
ian debacle.
So that these trops may be sup
piled and so that a proper reserve
may be accumulated for them in
France. the forces at home have ad-
mittedly been compelled to suffer.
1t is asserted in quarters close to
the White House that the way in
which the United States has turn
ed to has met with the hearty ap-
proval of the allies. This has been
voiced, 1t is stated, within a very
few days by two men-Lord North
cliffe. for England. and Andre Tar
dieu, for France.
Secretary Baker will apparently
be given an opportunity to state
these things as much in detail as
he deems wise when he appears be-
fore the House Military Affairs Com
mittee Saturday.

Make Belgians Pay Fines.

Nothing can give a better idea of
me obstinate resistance opposed by the
Belgians to German edicts and regu-
iauons than the statement of a Ger
man newspaper-the Deutsche Juris-
tenzeitung-which estimates at no
fewer than 100000 the number of SEN
fences inflicted on the people in one
year only Q915-16). Most of them. of
course, are fines or short terms of i'm
prsonment. Formerly we used to have
the choice and many rich people pre-
terred to go to the st. GILES prison
rather than help the enemy by paying
tneir hne. But the prisons have be-
come so crowded and the financial
situation Of the empire has become SO

RESULTS FROM GOOD ROADS.
After improvement Price of Tillable
Lands Show Big Increase-chi-
dren Benefited.

After improving the main market
roads in four counties in Virginia
and one each in New York, Alabama.
Florida and Mississippi during n pc
riod of five years, survey was made
- the work and it's results. 1t was
found that the price Of tillable land
served by the roads increased from
one to three times the total cost of the
improvements. The total saving every
year In hauling costs due to this i'm
provement in the roads amounts to
S627.4O9 for traffic of about 3,jOO.-
600 ton miles. The net saving on the
hauling, after deducting the cost of
interest and principal for the improve
ments, averages 11.6 cents per ton mile.
After the roads were better. the aver
nge attendance of children In the pub
lie schools was 76 per cent; before the
roads were improved it was 66 per
cent. Ten more children out of every
100 were enabled to get schooling as
result of better roads.
