the line on what is known as the

stin fighting in this area and time
after time Harry showed himself, not

acter. but TO be an officer who was
self sacrificing and he gained and held
the confidence of every man in his
company At this time he was put in
command OF company-soon TO have
received additional rank OF captain
He was a gallant leader without fear
Tor himself. but constantly on the
lookout for the safety and security Of
his men. II was through Just such
men as be was. as leaders. that the
American Army was able TO accom-.
plish shat II did. He was known

 Owing to the great strength of the stations now in use and the even greater power of those under COnstruc- tiOn or projected, it is possible for in- dlviduals possessing very small re- ceiving outfits to gather messages or news matter from half way around the world.
 On the theory that such cOmmuniCa- tiOnS are recognized as property, it is the purpose of the conference to find some means of protecting them from unauthorized exploitation.
 Capt, William Bullard, head of the United States naval radio service. and other American delegates are inclined to favor governmental control of all stations as the only solution of the problem.

But one or them Is worth all other horses in the world It is the one of the monument to BartOIome0 COlleOni, the great cap tain of the republic of Venice. It was erected in the fifteenth century on the square of the Guild of St. Mark, which is the magnificent building near the cathedral of SS. John and Paul. The great ColIeoni, whose modeSty was not proportionate to his value, left will disposing that this equestrian statue should be erected on the Square of St
 Mark. But there was a drastic law fOrbidding that any statue be put in the celebrated square, and the wise Venetian senate found a way of re- solving the controversy, ordering that the manument be erected in the Square of the ScOla of St Mark Andrea Yer rocchio, the famous FlOrentine artist, the master of Leonardo da Vinci, modelled the wonderful equestrian statue, which, after his death, was finished and cast in bronze by the Venetian Leopardi, who created also the precious marble base.

MAD. GEN. CROWDER
TO Be REAPPOINTED

Mai. Cen. Enoch Crowder will be
reAppointed army judge advocate
general.
Intimations that he was TO be
shelved were dissipated today when
u was learned on reliable authority
that President Wilson will again name
him for the post
Crowder's friends were doubtful as
TO his resppointment until today.
Some Of them claimed that he would
automatically go out Of the service
IL not renominated before February
l5. And they feared that what
amounted to bad blood between him
and Chief Of STAFF March would op-
crate to ditch him.
They declared privately that many
obstacles had been put in the way OF
the men who made the draft machine
an admitted success. And they
claimed, too, that a reprimend from
the chief OF staff still lay against
Crowder's record. Whether or not
this is true, the War Department has
refused to allow his record TO be made
public. .-. ~,. Tx
SS--yHtyliiIe the situation surrounding
the judge advocate general has been
chiefly one involving military politics.
there have been some Democrats In
Congress who OPPOSED him, claiming
he had built up a personal machine
while acting as draft leader. They
feared that he intended to use this
machine for Republican political pur-
poses.
