Monsieur Wilson in Paris.

Paris President Wilson breakfast.
ed rather early this morning, in com
pany with Mrs. Wilson. The day be-
ing fine, he enjoyed a short ride in the
Champs Elysees, accompanied by Mrs
Wilson, and later visited Versailles
accompanied by Mrs. Wilson.
The president dropped in on the
municipal council to acknowledge the
gold medal of the city, which has been
presented to him. Mrs. Wilson accom-
panied him. After the ceremonies, in
company with Mrs. Wilson, he inspect
ed the departments in the city hall.
then partook of refreshments in buff
fet, Mrs. Wilson joining him.
Toward midnight, still accompanied
by Mrs. Wilson, the president return
ed to his lodgings de luxe, and as he
was still in good voice, despite day
of speeches, he sang, "This is the end
of a perfect day." The accompanist
was Mrs. Wilson.-Josh Dinger. (All

Whose Fault Is IT.?

The New York Times says that un-
less the United States accepts the
league of nation scheme as it is it will
be upon penalty of renewal Of the
war;" 49,.
If the war be renewed it will be en-
tirely the fault Of those charged with
concluding treaty of peace with our
enemies, but who have utterly failed,
neglected and refused to do so.
It was the business of the Paris
peace conference to end the war. That
it has not done so is no fault of the
United States senate, nor can it be
made to appear so by the special
pleaders of the administration, which
has chosen to enter upon plan of
world legislation before permitting the
war to be ended.
Who is going to renew the war if
the particular plan of world recon
struction proposed by President Will
son is not accepted in toto? Will it

it that has given them their opportun-
ity to renew the struggle? The central
powers were defeated in November
last; so completely crushed that any
terms desired could have been imposed.
If our enemies have been rehabilitated
it is no fault of the American army,
the American people or the American
senate.
The cry will now go up that if any
time is taken for the discussion of the
league of nations plan as brought
home by President Wilson it means
a continuation of the war. The contin-
uation of the war is the fault Of those
who, nearly four months after the
signing of the armistice, have failed to
negotiate peace. The thrusting for
ward of the argument that the admin
istration will refuse to permit an end
ing of the war until the senate accepts
the league Of nations scheme as laid
before it is form of blackmail upon
the nation which is disgraceful to
those who utter it, but is not likely
to intimidate those against whom it is
directed.-National Republican.

Good Roads Save Gasoline.

Everybody admits that good roads
are good thing, and most Of us be-
lieve that, wisely built and wisely
maintained, good roads will prove a
paying investment. Not everybody is
yet ready to admit that the time has
come to issue bonds for building
great system of state roads; but most
people are in mood to be shown. An
official test recently made in Ohio to
determine the effect of good roads on
the consumption of gasoline, furnishes
some definite information.
To determine how much gasoline is
required to pull given load over
roads of varying surfaces, five-ton
trucks were driven both loaded and
empty over seven different types of
road surface on practically level
ground. The greatest care was taken
to eliminate from the test every va
RANT except the surface of the road.
The five-ton trucks were new army
standard A trucks, and on the seven
types of road all five registered prac-
tically alike.
The results in terms of miles per
gallon of gasoline consumed were:
5.78 miles over earth road in good con-
dition; 7.19 over fair gravel road;
9.48 over fair bituminous macadam;
9.88 over fair brick road; liza over
extra smooth brick road; and 11.78
over good concrete road.
The most remarkable fact disclosed
was that putting the two-ton load on
the empty truck made seven times as
much difference in gasoline consumed
on a dirt road as on smooth, hard
surface road. The result is almost
identical with that shown in an Off
cial test made in 1917 by the California
Automobile association.
Illinois has voted to issue bonds for
sixty million dollars to build five thou
sand miles of paved roads. Thus if
five hundred trucks were operated over
these roads three hundred days of the
year, the saving in gasoline would
amount annually to about fifteen mil
lion dollars, or. enough to retire the
bonds in four years. This estimate
does not include the saving of wear
and tear on tires and machines, nor the
added benefit to the state of the in
creased traffic, due to the better roads.
