provoked attack by Germany, Senator
Lodge said he must decline to express an
opinion on the question you suggest,
which Is merely q newspaper report
So far as that goes, Senator Lodge does
not know that there has been a war ex-

never saw the war, He never .;aw the
German army nlobilized; he never saw the
invasion of Belgium: lie never saw the

Hindenburg line; he never saw the spring
offensive of 1918 and the turning back Of
the Germans at Chateau-Thierry in the
summer.
All the proof he has that,a a

ROGER CHEW MADE HEAD OF
GREAT STANDARD OIL COM
PANY LABORATORY.

The Spirit of jefferson takes pleas
ure in noting a well deserved adj
vancement of another Charles Town
boy. Roger Chew, son of Col. and
Mrs. r. P. Chew, of Charles Town.
has been made Chief of the big
Standard Oil Company Laboratory
Mt Bayonne, New Jersey, and Mana
ger of the Inspection Department.
From a New York paper of recent
date we take the following:
The appointment of Roger Chew
as chief of the big Standard Oil La
boratory and Manager of the lnspec-
ton Department is another signpost
on which every worker in that giant
concern can read the plain story OF
appreciation and reward for faithful
and loyal service.
Mr.. Chew started with the Stand
ard Oil Company soon after his
graduation from Stevens Institute
of Technology and he has remained
constantly on his pob. His work
has always been notable for its accur-
acy s.-ld intelligent comprehension OF
the desire of the company to increase
the value of its products while de-
ereasing the cost thereof. His ad-
vancement has been steady progress
until today he holds the highest posi-
ton in his chosen department.
Mr.. Chew's success is an lnsplra-
ton to every worksr. 1t IS also a
qualification to his numerous friends
in this city to know that his services
are so publicly recognized.
