FOR OUR ARMIES

NEW YORK, July s.-Cheer-up,

Herbert l. Pratt, vice president of
the Standard OIL Company of New
York; Seward Prosser, president OF
the Bankers Trust Company, and
Fred B. Smith. business man, who
have returned from a visit "oVer
there"
The need OF the cheer-up type Of
man was made known at a luncheon
at the Lawyers Club. at which Mr..
Pratt was host, to leading men of
various professions and Industries of
Greater New York The object of the
rcOnday meeting was to discuss the
urgent need OF getting for the Y. NJ.

Company sold cigarettes and choco-

ness Of selling comforts to the SOL

month and will represent In time

In the view OF Messrs Pratt, Pros

Business Men Needed
All sorts OF men are needed, par
ticularly middle aged men or those
between the draft age and fifty, pro-
vided the man OF fifty is in good
physical condition. The Y. N. c. A,
the speakers pointed out, is doing
the recreation and social work OF the
army, and in keeping the morale of
the army up to the high pitch de-
manded the right type of business or
professional man is greatly needed.
Men are wanted who can stay away
from their businesses for six months:
those preferable are men who will
go for one year, or the period Of the
war.
''It would be a fine thing" said Mr..
Pratt, 'if business men would go over
II only to tell the story OF their busi-
nesses. Men are crazy for this kind
OF talk. because II takes them out of
themselves. l talked Standard OIL
for one and a half hours"
There are two times when our men
are in danger" said Mr.. Prosser;
when they are in the front line
trenches and when they are loahng.
The lOaing time is where we can
help. These men ought to get a
square deal from the men over here.

boys up during the loanng period"

your argument"
The attorneys for the prosecution
were visibly affected by the pro-
nouncement OF the Justice on this
matter, and an evident stir was Gre
ated among them
Introducing his argument, Mr.
Stanchfield addressing the court, said:
Every man by law is presumed to
be honest, not dishonest: sane, not in
sane: solvent, not insolvent. This
leads me to the observation that
where a state OF facts is susceptible

party must receive the benent there

Refers To First Hearing.
Referring to the hearing before
Commissioner Isaac Hit. who COM
mitted GodsoI under the FIRST war
rant, Attorney Stanchfeld read from
the transcript and interpreted Com
missioner Hits attitude as placing
the burden upon Godsol to clear him
self OF the charge made against him
by the French government and to ex-
culpate himself. instead of the French
government proving the guilt.
"If Commissioner Hit was in that
frame OF mind" said Mr.. Stanchfield,
'Godsol ought to be discharged"
Speaking OF the duties OF the COM
hitting magistrate in this case, At
torney Stanchfeld said the first cues
ton for consideration was what guam
tum OF evidence was required to be
produced to Justify him to hold the
defendant in this Jurisdiction.
@Must Be q Case.7
There must be a case made out
against the defendant" continued Mr..
Stanchheld. land all necessary Ingre-
dents of the crime must be proved by
competent evidence"
He announced that the base upon
which the Government has built its
case rests upon hearsay evidence, "and
upon that there cannot be the slight.

United States and France controls in
this case and is the supreme law of
the land. and the only function of the
courts is to construe the provisions

The opening argument for the
prosecution was made by Mr.. Laws.

What are your revenues from long
distance and toll business, and the
proportionate cost?
Cannot Know.
In other words, this commission
cannot know what it is costing you
to furnish service to the different
classes of users. Its business is to
determine whether you are losing
money from the service you are Civ
ing the citizens of this city. Should
1t, without some definite light, au-
thorize you to charge citizens more
for that service, while at the same
time you 60 around with q similar
demand upon the Government and
raise your long-distance and toll rates
to suit your own ideas?
Dey street says the books are not
kept that way. and District officials
understand that it is difficult to give
exact details. but these officials at
the same time feel that Dey street
ought to have a pretty good idea, and
does have an idea, which 1t could at
tempt to impart II It wanted to do so.
Dey street says its books are kept
according to standard classihcations
fixed by the Interstate Commerce
Commission, and these classifications
are recognized by the Utilities Com
mission as the best to be followed.
q, s. Business Heavy.
Dey street lawyers have admitted
that of the very heavy expenditures
in this city since the outbreak Of the
war in April, 1917, probably three
fourths are altogether due to the
needs and demands of the United
States Government They give no in
formation as to how much money has
been put into a great underground
telephone conduit system between
here and New York that is perma-
nent.
Briefly, the Dey street people have
no way Of separating or apportioning
increased costs among the various
users in this city and merely holds
out its hands and says, everybody
come across" So far as absolute
facts and figures go, the Washington
public may be chargeable for an in
crease sufficient to warrant the COM
mission in raising rates IN this city.
The existing rates may still be ample
to pay for the strictly local service
and give the company fair proht on
its investment.
before IL to justify increased rates
is that the war has raised the price
of all materials going into telephone
construction, the wages Of telephone
employees and expenses generally. But
as opposed to this is the known fact
that the washington public has been
for years paying rates that are far
above those in nearly all other cities
of the country. and excessively above
those paid by the public in cities
where automatic and semi-automatic
phones are in use.

time when he was compelled by his
uncle. the late King Charles OF Wur-
tenn berg. 10 serve as an officer in the
Prussian regiment Of the Hussars Of
the guard stationed in Potsdam.
This was in the years 1872 TO
1877. when he retired from active
service and married the Princess
Marie OF Waldeck and PyrmOnt. the
eldest sister OF the Dowager Queen
Emma of the Netherlands, and of
The widowed duchess OF Albany, and
definitely settled in Stuttgart, which
he never left again, except for short
Journeys Among these up TO the
var figured a yearly villegiature in
Nice. Of which he was exceedingly
fond. as we'll as OF the French and
Italian Riviera in general.
King and Kaiser Unacquainted.
There are people who have said
that the king has been upon bad
terms with the present kaiser since
those Potsdam days. and that these
had terms had Legun when they had
served in the same regiment. But
this Is quite untrue. because the
king who was some 1 . years older
than the kaiser. was an officer in the
Hussars Of the guard long before
Prince William entered il, and his
retirement from active service took
place at a time when the present
emperor was still a student at Bonn
university. Indeed. they scarcely
knew each other. and the enmity Of
the king OF Wurtemberg for every
thing that was Prussian is due 10
quite other causes.
II had its origin in a quarrel
which he had with the then crown
prince. afterward Emperor Fred
erick III. who had tried to reprove
The young Wurtemberg prince for a
certain levity of conduct which had
been discussed rather more than il
ought 10 have been in Berlin So
ciety Indeed, the heir 10 the small
Nurtemberg throne had never posed
for a saint, and all the time he was
stationed at Potsdam. he was con-
tinuauy getting into some scrape or
other which required quite an I'M
usual amount OF tact 70 explain
away. lie was a gambler: he cared
'or the society of the ladies, and he
drank more than he ought to have
done: thus giving a very bad ex-
ample 20 the officers of the regiment
10 which ne belonged. But he was
future king, and as such his super
Tors did not dare TO interfere as they
would undoubtedly have done in the
case OF a simple mortal"
Al last the crown prince OF the
German empire was asked 10 put in
a word OF advice. as il was not con
sidered expedient to acquaint the
old emperor Of what was going on.
He did so. but perhaps in more
energetic tones than would have
been necessary, and the consequence
was a desperate quarrel which re-
suited in Prince William Of Wur-
temberg sending in his papers. and
retiring to Stuttgart. giving as a
reason for doing so. the fact that he
was about 10 get married. and wish
ed 20 have a home or his own.
No Heir To the Throne
When he brought his wife TO Wur-
'em berg she was received with great
enthusiasm, as the population OF the
title kingdom feared that IL the
succession was not assured in the
direct line the Roman Catholic
branch Of the royal house would
succeed TO the throne. Great was
