Senator Stone.
Senator Lewis explained that Col
House had been upon a Texas gov

Penrose. IF the colonel had a chance
to display his military talent I'm sure
he would outrival Napoleon or Caesar.
But he seems to confine himself to
keeping under cover and saying moth

Sending Col. House abroad, Senator
Penrose considered, placed this coun-

and smacked of the diplomacy Of a

This laugh at the expense OF Col

Against U. s. onner.hIn.

The rest OF the day the commit
tee spent in listening to former Sem
ator Bristow's arguments and tabu-
lations intended to show gross over
capitalization of the railroads.
DO you believe in government
ownership" was one of the first
questions popped at Director Nc
Adoo. Senator Watson, of Indiana,
asked it. McAdoo replied he did
not. and qualified and elaborated his
answer.
Other subjects on which he was
called to commit himself were: Re
peal of the Sherman antitrust law
as to railroads, which he evaded; his
right, rather than that of the Inter
state Commerce Commission, which
he stoutly defended; whether
$1,000, 100000 rather than the half
that contained in the present bill
would not be needed, which he ad-
mitted; how the government should
treat roads in receivers hands-he
said 1t should aid in reorganizing
them; whether the Garfield coal or
der was not largely due to railroad
conditions. which he admitted.
How did you base the compen-
sation for the railroadsT asked
Senator Kellogg of Minnesota.
They are based" replied Mr.. Nc
Adoo, ION what Is reasonable in
view Of the emergency. 1t Is a good
trade for the government-$10O,00 900,
900 less than the roads earned last
year"
do you think their earnings fair
or exhorbitant?"
I'VE must remember, Senator, that
what we propose is not what we
impose. The roads would have their
recourse in the courts. I would
rather err on the side of liberality
and get possession at once than
have to remit the whole question to
the courts because the roads
thought themselves unfairly treat
ed"
TT is suggested though" said
Kellogg, that the well-paid ones
under your scheme will agree to 1t,
and those not doing so well will GO
to the courts"
"All we can do is OFFER" said Nc
Adoo.
Some roads are in the hands OF
receivers, What of them?"
I'VE ought" declared the hdirec-
tor, ito help reorganize them on a
sound basis. On a basis fair to the
public and to their security hold
ers."
Parleys with KelIogg.
Kellogg and McAdoo engaged in a
lively colloquy over the Directors in
sistence that Congress hold the roads
after the war until legislation were
drafted. McAdoo finally admitted nc
legislation would be necessary IL Con-
gress wished the roads to return to
the recent competitive basis"

(The Washington Herald Reporter
with American Army in France)
With the American Army in
France. Jan. 21.-Its high time the
American people quit fooling them
selves about this war!
Personally. I'm not going to keep
on trying to deceive myself any
longer as to the seriousness and the
bigness of the Job my country has
ahead of 1t in the next few months
to come.
Dead certain II is there is an aw-
full jar in store for the complacent
man back home who sits before
his cherry fire and observes to his
wife:
Mother, we can't lose this war!
How can We when Congress is
spending steen millions of dollars
day and is loaning our allies all
they need, too? Why, it says here
in the paper we have nearly 2,000,-
900 men in training for service. Just
wait until we get them over to
France. The Kaiser won't last
three months!"
Just wait
In Apple-Pie Order.
Has 1t ever sunk into the American
mind that perhaps there is one fell
low over here who won't 'just wait
until America gets everything In ap-
ple-pie order to strike him?
The Kaiser is anything but the Just
walt" kind.
He didn't wait on Serbia or Ru-
mania or Italy, but struck them when
they were least expecting 1t.
THE GERMAN GAME HAS AL
WAYS BEEN TO SMASH BEFORE
THE OPPOSITION IS READY.
Is America really in this war or Is
she just playing as If she were?
Let the swivel chair warriors at
home answer this question:
"If a big German offensive in the
West does come soon, what part Is
America prepared to play In crushing
it?''
Consider the present war situation
in its naked truth.
Even though permanent peace be-
tween Germany and Russia fails, the
fact remains that Germany already
has withdrawn an enormous number
Of men from the Russian line and has
sent them into France, figuring that
the Russian army Is SO badly demor-
allied that it can't become very both
ersome.
Beyond the Alps.
Now as to Italy.
The recent German offensive against
Italy forced both Great Britain and
France to rush immense armies to the
Italian sector to stop up holes and
as long as they are held there they
are unavaible for service In France
or Flanders.
Not for . minute do I think the
expected German offensive will break
the allies Western line.
What saw and heard at Verdun,
where the valiant French have act
ually killed more than coo. 900 Germans
convinces me that the last French
soldier Il ready to die with a gun in
his hands before he'll let the Ger
mans pass.
And there are no more tenacious,
braver fighters In all the world than
the British with their wonderful
faculty for organization and their al
most unlimited munitions.
