LAWRENCE ABBOTT:


The National Security League,
in common with all patriotic Amer
leans, deplores the loss to the
country in the death of Colonel
Roosevelt and its own personal loss
in the passing Of a friend and sup
porter. Colonel Roosevelt was the
foremost leader of the prepared
ness movement in this country, a
movement which the league was
founded to advocate and further.
1t recognizes gratefully all that
Colonel Roosevelt did to make his
work, a national sucess.
SAMUEL UNTERMYER:
The sad news of Colonel Roo
sevelt's untimely death comes to
the country Like thunderbolt

rience and usefulness while he
was still at the height Of his intel
lcctllal virility. However greatly
we may af times have differed on
national policies, no man in our
history has been more intensely,
unselfishiy, and patrictically Amer
lean than he in every fibre of his
being. He was truly a great perso-
nality. His friendships were as
deep and loyal as his prejudices
were instrmountable, but above
and beyond all else he was vital
moral force. the public loss of

mourned even by his political ad-
versarles. The heartbreaking sa
crifces that he so proudly and
heroically made for his country
will ever be source of inspiration
to his mourning fellow-country-
men. He was indeed distinguish

service filled with high purpose
and rich in accomplishment that
will ever live in grateful memory.
HENRY L. DOHERTY:
The career Of Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt was Of a kind rarely
cqualled in history. He was a dy-
mamie, vital type of American,
and being human he was liable to
mistakes. But he was a man OF

political life. He took many and
notable steps in shaping our Go

ship. No American perhaps has
ever crowded so, much activity into
the same span Of years. His death
is distinct loss to the nation.
Even these who disagreed with
him always admired him for his
unswefwing loyalty to those views
which he championed.
EDWIN II. BLASHFIELD:
Colonel Rooseyelt's death is a
great calamity. His passing is an
immense loss to everybody.
WILLIAM BARNES:
l am very sorry to hear Of Co.
lionel Roosewelt's death. He Ger
tainly did great work in the last
three years in making the Amer
lean people realize their national
spirit. He was a thorough-going
nationalist, which every American
ought to be.

ELMER ELLSWORTH BROWN
| regarded Mr.. Roosevelt as one
Of the foremost Americans Of re-
cent times. His wonderful range
Of interest drew nearer to the
people than any other man I
know of. He touched the people III
an extraordinary number Of ways.
His death ccmes close home to me.
Ii. J. WHEGHAM:
Colonel Rocsevelt's death is felt
by every one in the metropolitan
Magazine office, for he was a per-
sonal friend cf everyone here. He
came in a great deal and took a
personal interest in the welfare of
every one. One Of the first things
he ever did here was to find out
if the girls in the circulating de-
partment were paid proper wages.
He was loved by every one here
and was like one Of the staff. I
saw him on Thursday and he seem

hour and half On intervention III

Bolshevism.

What Prominent People
Say About Roosevelt

1t should be said now in all justice
that he it was who led America
into the war on the side Of right
and toward victory. He made each
succeeding compromise with Ger
many mere difficult until finally
the country world not stand any
more humiliation. Preparedness
was the concrete. response to his
message. America and all maak-
ind have sustained an irreparablc
loss through his death, but his
spirit, the spirit Of Americanism,
is immortal and will continued to
aid us.
HENRY w. TAFT:
l deeply deplore Mr.. Rcose-
velt's death. The loss to the coun-
try is irreparable. His powers for
usefulness were until recently very
little impaired, for he had retain
ed his high spirit and his unique
gift of appealing expression, not
to mention the enormous prestige
attaching to his name, personal
ity in the most remote corner of
the world. His patriotism during
the war was, as it always was, of
the most militant character and
his deepest feelings of contempt
were reserved in equal measure
for those of indifferent patriotism
and fer those who exploited their
patriotism. for sinister or selfish
motives, Biographers will differ
in estimating the. value OF Mr..
Roosevelt's achievements. In M
opinion, he was greatest as a cru
sader in the cause Of reform. No
man of his time had his power in
amusing and organizing in our
national life. For what Mr.. Roo
sevelt accomplished in bringing
about a permanent elevation in the
tone Of business life Of his country
every citizen owes him an ever
lasting debt Of gratitude. Mr.. Roo
sevelt's exemplary life, his thor
ough Americanism, his freedom
from all taint Of commercializa-.
ton, his sense Of humor, and his
interesting and somewhat roman
tic personality permanently end
cared him to millions of his fellow
citizens.
DIR. CHARLES Fl. PARK
/ HURST:
It is sad and irrcparable loss.
1t comes to the world as univer-
sal bereavement He was a typical
Amdricanb strong'willed and big
hearted. He was so large that all
classes of people found SO much
room in him that they could uni
versally believe in him. He was
SO genuine that even if you quar-
relied with him you could not get
away from him. No man was ever
more true to his country, He prov
ed this by offering his services in
the war, which were declined, and
by the giving Of his boys. The
whole world is made the poorer-by

The new state Of Jugo- Slavia is being
flooded with deprecated Austro- Hun
garian paper currency, according to Il
special correspondent of "The London
Morning Post who says:
That money OF impaired value drives
good money off the market If not an
ECONOMIC axiom, is a self-evident propo-
sition which has been we'll exemplihed
in Serbia. The territories of the old
kingdom and those newly added to it
alike are simply inundated with Austro-
hungarian paper crowns, while OF Ser

Why? Because all who can afford to
do so hoard their Serbian dinars and
spend the rapidly depreciating crowns.
There has been a remarkable recovery
in Serbian state credit since the arrnis-
tice--the paper dinar. OF Serbian franc,
being to-day worth so per cent of par,
against 46 during the war. This re-
covery has been due TO the large gold
reserve held for the Serbian government
in Paris quite as much as TO the i'm
proved political prospects Of the king
dom.
Cheap Money Floods Land
On the other hand, there is a swelling
food of Austro-Hungarian crowns that
is continually fed from Vienna and
Budapest, where the government print
ing presses are said to be issuing be-
tween them d round 100000 600 day
to meet current expenses, while 49,
000,O00,000 are already in circulation.
With view to stemming the influx
of this discredited currency the Serbian
government, soon after the armistice,
caused all the Austro-H Hungarian notes
that were already in its territory to be
counter stamped, declaring of no value
such as should not be thus endorsed, and
prohibited the further importation OF
crowns under severe penalties.
When the Croats and the Slovenes
proclaimed their union with Serbia they
also IN self-defence counter stamped vhe
crowns in their possession and inter
dicted their importation.
1t was hoped by these measures to
limit to 100000 900 the number OF
crowns that would have to be ultimately
redeemed by the Serbo-Croat- Slovene
government, that government reserlne
to itself the right eventually to clam

IS BORAH A RADICAL?

Senator Borah of Idaho is quoted as saying in the senate recently, in speaking of the general labor s1tua- tion, that the problem is not one of wages. "The question:" he went on, "can not be settled until industry has been put on a new basis and labor not only has been allowed to share in the fruits of industry, but also in management, operation and control"
 A pronounced liberal, who resigned from the public service to take an active part in propaganda work, com menting upon this alleged statement of the Republican senator, says, No liberal, I think, will disagree with that statement"
 Which leads one to wonder how far this new thought" in political econ- omy has permeated the ranks of the statesmen and politicians at the cap ital, and what effect such sentiments are likely to have on the makeup Ot the political platforms of next year.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26 (by Asso- ciated Press) ).-Senator Cummins, ad- dressing the upper house yesterday, said that when President Wilson ended his work at Paris America had no friends in Europe, Asia or Africa.
 Our brilliant services in the war;" he said, were almost forgotten in the storm of protests which followed Presi- dent Wilson home"
 He said the people first welcomed the League of Nations covenant as means of preventing wars, but lately had discovered provisions in the cov- enant which must inevitably provoke wars.
 Senator Cummins denied that the opposition of senators to the covenant was in furtherance of any political de- signs.

THE SAVINGS CAMPAIGN

During the first eight months of 1919 the people of the Twelfth fed eral reserve district, embracing the states of Washington, California, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, part of /; Arizona and the territories of Hawaii and Alaska, saved $7O79, ,255.75 by the purchase of Thrift and War Savings Stamps, according to a report just issued by the War Loan Organization. High prices were hit just that hard, said Robert E. Smith, director of the organization, "as every dollar saved helps bring down prices"
 The amount saved, however, the report shows, is only 1.9 per cent of the quota asked to date by the gov ernment from residents of the Twelfth district At the beginning of the year the treasury department fixed quota of ten dollars per capita as sufficient to help the government meet it's war debts. The ten dollar quota is just half the per capita quota asked in 1918.
 "The people are not standing up 10 their respOnsi bilitieS in this dis trict." said c A. FarnsWorth, asso- ciate director of the war loan Organl- zation. "The government needs this money just as much now as it did dur ing the war and is depending upon every man, woman and child in the district to lend it ten dollars before the end of the year. Of course there are indigents in the West who have not the ten dollars to lend their cOun try and there are others who nave the ten dollars who are not enough American to lend it to their country Consequently real Americans must ln vest more than their quota Ii the West is to save it's face before the rest of the country"
 High prices" the report points out, 'WOulu De SCluCh 00l1o" "A0 if the people of the West would only save something out of every pay en velope or salary check-if the wage or salary earner would make Wa. Stamps the first item on his budge each week. The money saved would cut down the demand for luxurle and at the same time provide capita for greater production of necessities The best economists in the country, the report continues, "are agreed tna this is the only way to lower prices that congressional investigations ant prosecutions of profiteers will no effect price reductions.
 Work and save regularly is thf only remedy" the report concludes.
