TERRIBLE ENGINE
OF WAR INVENTED
IN ROCKET FORM
College Professor PerfectS
Weapon With Range of 200
Miles and Of Great Destruc-
tive Power,

Worcester, Mass. March 29.-Dr.
Robert Fl. Goddard, professor of
physics at CLARK college, acting under
the patronage of the United States
war department, the Smithsonian in
stitution, Clark university and Wor-
cester Polytetchnlc institute. has in
vented a new rocket that is reported
to be a terrible engine Of war, with an
altitude range of seventy miles
straight up into the air and a distance
range of at least 200 miles.
The rocket, in the opinion OF the
scientists who have Investigated its
workings, is the most efficient rocket
ever developed. 1t is claimed the best
known rocket in use today has an eff
ficiency of less than per cent, while
the Goddard roakct has an efficiency
of 63 per cent
The rocket has been developed in
a special laboratory at Worcester
Tech, and phe signing of the armis-
tice prevented its being put to actual
use in warfare against the Germans,
as all the local tests had been COM
pleted. These tests. made by models,
showed that q rocket weighing thirty
pounds, equipped with the Goddard
system of propulsion, could be sent
into the air far above the earth $
atmosphere.
The Goddard rocket is propelled by
a perfect gas engine installed in the
lower part of the shell, the explo-
sions that generate the power coming
from cartridges that are fed into the
chamber by a clocklike time device.
The range of the rocket is limited
only by the amount of propelling cart
ridges It could be fitted to carry. The
rocket does not require cannon to
start it on its flight, the journey be-
ginning from any point where man
can get. The weapon feature of the
rocket is in the head, where a cham
Der is fitted to contain either high
explosives or gas. Men who have fol-
lowed the development of DR.. God
dards rocket claim 1t can be made as
efficient in naval warfare as in land
battles.

BAKER PRAISES
MEN SERVING ON
MEXICAN BORDER


Washington. March 29.-Officers
and men of the cavalry regiments or
duty along the Mexican border are
rendering the country service of the
highest character, Secretary Baker
said today, and are facing unpleasant
conditions in a spirit of uncomplain-
ing loyalty that is worthy of the
warmest praise. During his recent
tour of inspection with General
March, the secretary said, he passed
along a large portion of the border
and saw for himself the lonely posts
in this desert region where the men
are camped in small detachments pa
trolling the border.
These men, he added, were among
the most loyal, uncomplaining, alert
and efficient" in the army and he
doubted If any higher service to the
country had been rendered by any
other portion of the military estab-
lishment.
General March pointed out that a
surprisingly large number of reenlist-
ments were being received among the
border regiments An average of about
200 men per regiment he said, had
renewed their enlistment contracts.
As to the recent bandit raid and
counter operations by the cavalry on
the border, Secretary Baker said he
believed the prompt handling of that
case would serve to discourage band

SAYS HITCHCOCK
Chairman of Foreign Relations
Committee Under Democra-
tic Rule Says Few Changes
viii Be Made.


Washington, March 29.-Senator
Hitchcock of Nebraska, former DEM
ocratic chairman of the senate foreign
relations committee in a statement
today declared his belief that no inn
portant changes had been made ir,
the covenant of the league of nations
by the committee having it in charge
at Paris and that the senate would
ratify the treaty, even though ii con-
tanned no provision specifically eX-
empt,ng the Monroe doctrine.
The statements were made upon the
senator's return from speaking trip
to the middle west where he said i'm
uications pointing to increasing senti-
ment favorable to the league.
Senator Hitchcock said the presi-
dent had stated the amendments rela-
tive to the Monroe doctrine, the right
of nations to withdraw, reservation of
immigration and other domestic ques-
tions as well as amendment for the
purpose of clarifying the provision
relative to unanimity of action were
acceptable to him." although he
thought the original draft covered
these points. The senator quoted the
president further as saying that he
did not like to propose any amend
ments, because of his fear that such
action would reopen the whole mat
ter and cause delay in the final sign
ing Of the peace treaty.
Asked regarding the identity of the
senator who, according to Paris dis
patches had made various suggestions
regarding amendments to the pro-
posed constitution, Senator Hitchcock
said he had handed the president a
letter Just prior to his departure,
pointing to objections and comments
made by various senators relative to
the plan, and arranged in the order
of their Importance.
my letter to the PRESIDENT said
Senator Hitchcock, was written with
a view to giving him information as
to segtiment la the senate. ex-
pressed the conviction that the senate
would ratify the peace treaty If it con-
tained the league of nations as an in
tegral part, whether amended or not,
but thought a few amendments would
greatly facilitate the ratification.
"Among those mentioned were a
reservation to each nation of its ex-
elusive control of domestic subjects, a
specific provision that each nation
might withdraw from membership on
giving reasonable notice, a definite
statement that the acceptance of the
burden of a mandatory by each ma
tion should be entirely optional and
specific reservation of the Monroe
doctrine. / did not recommend or

Paris, Mareh 29-The Hungarian
crisis and Germany's attitude in re
spect to Poland were considered this
afternoon at a meeting of President
Wilson and the three nremiers, who
met with Marshal Foch, The most ur-
gent question before the meeting was
how to transport divisions of troops to
Poland, for they could not he sent
overland through Austria.
The Germans are handling the Po-
lish situation trickily, causing delays
by questioning alternately the compe-
tence of the interallied military com
mission at Posen and the interallied
food commission at Brussels, on the
ground that their orders clash. The
Polish crux has not yet been relieved,
although in seeking a solution the pa

nearly exhausted.

BRITISH FLEET WILL
BE RE-DISTRIBUTED
rsy MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL lsAssp Wire


London, March 20 British Wireless
Service) The Westminster Gazette
says 1t understands there Is to be a
redistribution of the British fleet,
which in future will be composed as
follows:
The Atlantic fleet. the home fleet,
the Mediterranean fleet, the West
Atlantic squadron and the East Indies
squadron.
Each of the squadrons, the news
paper says, will include four light
cruisers but the question of COM
mands has not yet been settled.
Cruiser squadrons are again to take
overseas stations.
1t Is probable, the Gazette con-
tinues, that a greater number of
ships Of the home fleet will be main
tanned with nucleus crews although it
may be assumed that the admiralty,
before making definite arrangements,
are awaiting the decisions of the
Paris conference and that the present
distribution Is merely provisional.
Lord Jellicoe on his tour OF the en-
pire is investigating the question of
naval defense as a whole, and not
until his return, the Gazette says, can
a complete scheme be devised.

IADMITS BOLSHEVISM
IS IN GRAVE DANGER
rsy MORNING ,ovHs.L SPECIAL LEASED w,es,


Stockholm, March ga frank
avowal that the position of the Boil
shevik government had become abso-
lutely ir/lerable, was made at the
recent International Bolshevik confer
ence by NJ. Lunacharsky, minister of
education in the soviet government,
according to a Petrograd dispatch.
The minister is said to have confessed
that the socialist conscience of the
very circles on which Bolshevism is
based Is shaken at present"
Lunacharsky also admitted that the
worst enemy of Bolshevism was the
allied economic blockade and he even
went so far as to predict the end of
the Bolsheviki regime If the blockade
continued. He said that owing to ply
steal privations from lack vi bread,
fuel and raw materials it was natural
that wrath should be provoked against
the government and that it should be
accused of inefficiency.

The sharpshooters are still fighting

know the forces now opposing them

Libau, where 1000 workmen, once
they are armed. are counted upon by
the Bolshevik agents to form a center
force to break the anti Bolshevik
resistance
A burning question in Libau is the
steamer Saratoff, loaded with ma
chine guns and munitions, which the
British control. If the guns are un-
loaded from the Saratoff, both the
Lettish and -Rolshevik troops
regard it as certain that they will be
turned against them, eventually by
the Libau Bolsheviki. When the Boil
shevik reinforcements arrive, Lettish
resistance at Iibau will be futile, and
this rampant against Bolshevism will
have to he, Moscow hopes, upheld by
German troops, many of whom are

Thus will be made easier the success
