Alfred Capus Says IL Was Needed
Mt This Time.

PARIS. Feb. 1o.--Commenting upon the
interview given by Premier Clemenceau
to the Associated Press. which occupies
the place OF honor in all the Paris news
papers to-day, Alfred Capus in the
Figaro says:
with its vigorous and hardy pessl.
mism. II is an act OF ardent patriotism
1t Is Just the plain language which 1t is
fitting TO talk to France and her allies
at the present moment France should
be made to recall that her enemy wished
for fifty years to cripple her and has not
given UP that design. The Allies must
be told that the victory bought with 30
much blood and sacrifice will remain a
precarious one if they do not know how
to complete II. Finally Germany must
be shown that she can no longer deceive
liz and that 1t Is our firm intention TO
make peace, also. TO the finish
premier Clemenceau has never been
more lucid or stronger than in these dec.
larations which will have a considerable
effect"

CREEL CAMOUFLAGE
AN AID TO U. s. NAVY
Secret Of War Told at Dinner
of Officers of the Third
District.

Lieut. Henry Reuterdahl took 500 Of
ficers of the Third Naval district and
their friends into his confidence at a
dinner in the Aston Hotel last night and
told them the big secret of how George
Creel, chairman OF the Committee on
Public Information, answered the war
time demands OF the New York public
for pictures showing what the navy was
doing
For months ana months Lieut.. Reu-
terdahl. who is an officer % the Naval
Reserve, and other navy officers. he said.
had been endeavoring to persuade the
powers in Washington to organize a
Photographic division for the navy. just
like the ono that was picturing the
arrnys exploits in the battle lines In
France. II was no Use. however, FOR
the division wasn't formed.
Nevertheless Mr.. Creel got the pic
lures. and navy officers who had been
behind the scheme for the Photographic
division gasped at his enterprise when
the ships with their big guns very plain
were shown here IN all kinds Of manGu.
vres. But IL developed afterward. Lieut.
Re,iterdahl said. they were Japanese and
Italian warships cleverly camoufiaged
by the Committee on Public Information
by the judicious placing here and there
Of an American flag and the removal OF
all Italian and japanese insignia.
Eventually the navy's Photographic
division was formed and those ut the
dinner witnessed the first showing OF the
official Aim recording how the navy con-
voyed American troops TO France. The
film picked the soldiers up on their ar
rival ut the port of debarkation in Ho-
boken and then showed navy officers
going over charts showing the exact
routes to be followed by the troop con-
VOWS. Down the bay the soldiers are
seen starting for France at night. and
then picking up the convoy of battleships

depth bombs and other incidents OF the
transports passage are recorded. But
the film did not happen 10 catch AT
actual submarine attack. The Aim was
taken from the unfortunate transport

later trip.
The dinner was the first social gather.

trict have had since the war began. The
ether speakers were Ensign h. c. Nc

urged the issuance Of "rich mans and
poor mans bonds.
This could be accomplished. they say.
by making all bonds tax free up to a
certain holding. making them all pay ms
much perhaps as per cent. and taxing
all holdings above the exemption. or by
issuing a taxable bond at ~ or o per
cent. and a tax free bond at 3 u per cent.
The poor man could get a good invest
ment. not having heavy taxes to pay,

LONDON. Feb. 10.-Another instance
or British nervousness over American
competition in world trade has been un-
covered In the publicity given to certain
contracts to American firms for locomo-
tives by the colonies.
The mere suggestion that the colonies
intend to place contracts for locomotives
In America has brought out a vigorous
protest. The American Arms apparently
have offered TO supply the colonies with
locomotives for March delivery and at
about two-thirds OF the British price.
The British firms cannot promise de-
livery before December.
The Evening Globe declares this con-
st!tutes a challenge to the empires capt
tai and labor and urges all who have the
interest II the empire at heart to get
together to standardize output and pool
resources to meet American competition.
III II Is true that America Is produc-
ing cheaper while paying higher wages"
says the paper. at Is proof of better or.
ganization among employers"
LONDON, Feb. l0.--The British I'm.

fled the proposed embargo on American
products. which will be reimposed OIL

American boots and shoes to the extern,

This announcement virtually nullifies

Controllers Statement
After a long wait, for it was one Of
the Controllers busy days, Tribune
reporter obtained the following from
Mr. Craigs
'The Tribune has requested that !
make some statement in regard to the
daily outburst Of Public Service Com
missioner Whitney this time in refer
encc to the Intercontinental Construc-
ton Corporation. The statement now
made by Whitney is as false az those
previously given out by him upon this
subject. Whitney's previous state
ments ware that the claim Of the con
TRAITOR was being settled for 5000 600.
That was a 'alschood out Of the whole
cloth. lie now says that the settlement

O0O was secret settlement. This is
also unqualihedly false. The re-
mainder Of Whitney's rankings arc a
mixture Of f..lsehood ard half truths
by means Of which he seeks to cvade
the law against libel.
Doubtless Whitney is haunted by
the vision OF those whose lives were
sacrificed in the Malbone Street wreck j..
and it may be that, under the circum-
stances, he is not entirely rcsponsi bic
for what he says. Due responsibility
for the publication of his statements,
however, will attach to those who use
them"
Different Views Given
Commissioner Whitney, when asked
about the court adjustment of the Dan
lels Company $24 900 claim at SHIT,
said the Daniels Company had even q
better claim for damages than the In
tercontinental Company Counsel for

II the Controller had allowed the Inter
continental Company to sue the city
the latter would not have lost Il cent.

tai on the Eastern Parkway subway.

Hylan Recalls Reporters
Referring to the request Of the New
York Railways Company for permits
sion to charge an eight-cent fare on
tie surface lines and an additional
three cents for transfers, Comptroller
Craig said that the same principles
were involved.
AS the reporters were about to leave
the room Mayor Hylan recalled them.

"The time is at hand or RAPIDLY APP
preaching when the people muct be
served by the traction lines instead Of
the lines being used for stock manip-
ulation."
Public Service Commissioner Whit
rey again was the target for attack by
Mayor Nylan when, in the course of
the Board of Estimates open session.
he declared that Eve can never have
any better transit conditions until Mr.
Whitney is cut of the Public Service
Ccmmlssicn.' To these views Of
Mayor Hylan's were added those Of
Comptroller Craig, who maintained
greatest obstructionist to subways of
any one that has ever had anything to

The attack on Whitney was made
shortly after Bowling had questioned
William G. Fullen, associate counsel
Tor the commission, as to the truth Of
he published statement that 400 ON
ployes in the commissions Office had
been discharged because of the reduc-
ton for thai office in the 1919 appro-
rriation by the Board of Estimate.

Before Attorney Ful.en could answer
Comptroller Craig declared that the
Statement was "ridiculously and abso-
lutely false"
THE commission had bureau ten
times too large he continued, "and
we gave them an appropriation TWO or
three times larger than was needed to
audit the dual subway contract revo-
nues."
Mayor HyIan wanted to know who
gave out the statement and Craig
answered. "a fellow by the name Of
Whitney. now having the title of Pub
lie Service Commissioner. which he
won't hold long"
Nobody who reads a statement
from Commissioner Whitney would
give it any consideration, asserted the
Mayor.

that he was not yet sufficiently ac-
quanted with the financial condition
Of the road to warrant any opinion.
