REPUBLICANS FIND
 FAULT WITH BAKER

Washington July 19-(Special )-Newton D. Baker, secretary of war, has com mitted what the republicans term the '+unpardonable sim
 He has appointed an officer, Col. Henry c. Smithers, to review reports contain ing information demanded by the House committee Investigating the conduct of the democra tic administration during the time of war.
 The republicans make the following re- port of the incident
 'Adjutant-General Harris admitted to the committee that Secretary Baker had designated Col. Henry c. Smithers to as- sist the secretary of war in meeting the demands of the committee. Officers and bureau chiefs were advised by the ad- jutant-general that all information ac- quired by the committee or furnished by the department would clear through Col. Smithers: in other words that Colonel Smithers would be the clearing house through which acquisitions for informa- ton should pass, General Harris did not regard this as warning to officers and bureau chiefs not to communicate di- rectly with members of Congress.
 Colonel Smithers explained that his function was merely to initial communi- cations to the committee which required the secretary's signature. Chairman Graham asked the witness if he knew that he, the chaifman, had asked Secre- tary Baker, in writing, not to appoint such an officer, before Colonel Smithers was so appointed Colonel Smithers did not know it.''
 The republicans consider MT. Baker as one who not only grievously sinned but sinned after warning.

IMMIGRANTS ASKED
 TO ATTEND STATE FAIRS

Washington, July 1e.-(Special )-For the purpose of impressing on ipmigrants the desirability of becoming naturalized citi- zens of the United States. the bureau of naturalization of the department of labor will conduct a campaign before the people who attend 12 state fairs this year.
 The Alabama State Fair, to be held in Birmingham, is one of the favored. Other fairs in the south to be reached will be those held in Petersburg, Frederick, Md, Louisville, Nashville and Jackson, Miss.
 The board will employ educational charts. The object of the campaign is to make a citizen of every person of foreign birth in the United States. It is explained that the war was great stim- ulus to naturalization, and that the pace acquired by naturalization during the war should be maintained.
 It Is stated that before the war for nine months in any year since 1907, immi- grants on an average numbered 1.S5,349 and naturalizations. including derivative admissions of women and children, 15,200 This year, it Is added, immigrants num- bered 91, 200, and naturalizations, including declarants, petitioners and derivities. l. 12f, ,736

PUBLICITY AGENTS
 CAN ATTEND HEARINGS

Washington, July 1s.-(Special)-Th in- vestigating committee of the House IS willing that any newspaper correspondent on the pay roll of the democratic execu- tive committee be admitted to the hear ngs of the committee.
 Expression to that effect followed an interesting development. A democratic member of the committee naively asked if George c. Hill, newspaper correspon- dent, who has been furnishing the press with reports of the proceedings of the nvestigation-reports bearing partisan f1avor-was on the payroll of the repub- lican executive committee.
 After a significant silence, a republican member answered in the affirmative.
 Thereupon Chairman Graham. irritably. 1t seemed, exclaimed: And a publicity men of the democratic committee will be admitted if he so desires"

CAN DETROIT TIGERS WIN AMERICAN RAG? Hughie Jennings Expects History to Repeat Itself
 This Year
By DICK JEMISON

Chicago. July 19.-(SpeciaL) )--Base- ball statisticians, those with tend ency towards a hunch, are stringing along with the Detroit Tigers to win the 1919 American league pennant. will history repeat itself?" is the query flung by these dopesters, as they point to the record of the Tigers in 1907 as a basis for their conclu- sions in figuring the Tigers to cop this season. The showing of the Tigers this year and their performance in 1907 is identical.
 On July l this year the position of the Tigers was exactly the same as t was on July i, 1907, the Tigers first pennant winning year. On that day in 1907 the Jungaleers were in fourth place. six and half games behind tho White Sox, who were leading the league. Twelve years later, on the same day, the Tigers were again in fourth place, again six and a half games behind the leader, the only diff ference being that the Yankees were the leading team instead of the White Sox
 This hunch of the dopesters is sup ported by Hughie Jennings, who states that the TigeEs are now playing the best brand of baseball of their career and with the improved pitching, tae spirit of fight hustle and harmons that prevails, he figures them due to repeat their triumph of 12 years ago.

BARRETT WOULD ALLOW
 FARMERS TO ORGANIZE

Washington, July 1e.-(Special)-C. $, Barrett of Georgia, who has always been engaged in work for the farmers of the south, is in Washington preparing a plan by means of which farmers will not be subject to prosecution under the Sher- man antitrust law if they should or ganize to withhold their product from the market, or for the securing of better prices.
 Mir Barrett states that such conces- sions have been granted to many other producers, but that no such leniency in law had been displayed in the interest of the farmer.
 It is understood that on his urgent re- quest bill will be prepared and intro duced by the terms of which the farmer may bind himself together for his own preservation, either in withholding his sta pie from the market or in plans to se- cure higher price, and do so under the authority of law.

CONGRESS SEEMS EAGER
 TO HONOR PERSHING

Washington, July 19-Despite the an- tagonistic outbreak in the House yes terday afternoon when the President ex- pressed request that General March be given the permanent rank of general, it is not certain that the House committee on military affairs will deny the appeal of the chief executive.
 But for the fact that President Wilson stipulated that General Pershing should outrank General March, nothing could have occurred the title for the latter In asmuch however. as no disparagement to the honors of Pershing will be possible as the result of legislation in favor of March, Congress may enact such legis- lation.
 Representative Dent, ranking democrat Of the military committee admitted today that there would be serious split on the part of the committee, but stated that he could not predict either the de- feat or the victory of the legislation de- sired by the President. Chairman Kahn declined to be quoted.
