of warfare during 100 years out of
the past 145. or 60 per cent of the total

to the house by Representative Kahn

During the 145 years since the be-

In 1775, the United States has been

in 1918 and $3SOOO,OOO in 1915, de

first ten months of last year there was
sold in Paris 100000 pieces of gold
and platinum jewelry and 23.3OO,OOO

gold in France has increased from 81
400 francs per kilogram to $500

A new fuel fluid of greater heat
value per unit than either coal or fuel
oil was described by Jerome Alexan-
der, New York chemist. The paper
declared the new fuel utilizes coal
waste and cheap tars, these ingredi-
ents being dispersed in fuel oil by col
loidal action, and that the addition Of
n certain fixing agent, whose nature is
kept secret, results in a fuel which
combines the valuable qualities for
heating of both oil and coal. Peat,
Ignite, cellulose waste, sawdust and
similar inferior fuels may be utilized
in the new process.
II said that the new fuel could be
piped stored, and burned virtually as
steamships IL is virtually double the
value of either coal or present forms

Mystery Surrounds Russian Embassy

HE YSTERY surrounds the S1,OOO,OOO
kV1 pile, known as the Russian EN-
bassy, on fashionable Sixth street.
Gossip has it that behind those i'm
posing walls poverty exists, that funds
are running lower and lower.
Tales are being told like that of a
dentist bill which was paid with one
of the fleet Of automobiles formerly
the personal property of the late czar
Of Russia. Antique furniture is being
disposed of to pay expenses, it is said.
What government do the present oc-
cupants of the embassy represent?
Whence comes the money for its
maintenance?
Is 1t true that the state department
is about to order them to get out of
the embassy within a certain time?
To none of these questions has a
conclusive answer been given.
1t is known that an investigation is
under way TO determine who-what
government or person or personals
the owner of the embassy building.
1t used to belong to the czar-he
personally held title to such Russian
government buildings. But the czar
has long been dead. 1t is believed. Does
the building revert to the cars per-
sonal heirs, or to the Russian govern
ment? And If the latter, what Rus
sian government? These questions
puzzle state department officials.

PRESIDENT OBJECTS TO LEeIs-
LATIvE ACTION OF APPRoPRI-
ALTON MEASURE.
PREVENTS PUBLICITY
REPASSAGE OF THE BILL is NEG
EssARY BEFORE JUNE 30 OR
MUST LAPSE.
western Newspaper Union News Service.

western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington, May 14.-President Will
son pointedly informed Congress that
in his opinion the legislative branch OF
the government was showing an In
creasing tendency to interfere unduly
with the exercise of the executive func-
tions.
Taking as vehicle for his admoni-
tion a sharply phrased veto of the an
nual legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bill, the President de-
clared that one of the riders of the big
supply measure would muzzle cNecu-
tive officials with censorship" regu-
lated by the congressional joint com
mittee on printing.
Immediately the Presidents position
both on the general principle involved
and the specific case cited was chal-
lenged by Republican leaders of Sen
ate and House. Senator Smoot, Repub-
lican, II Utah, chairman of the joint
committee, declared in formal state
ment that the President apparently
had been deliberately misinformed'
about the appropriation bill, and Rep
resentative Good, Republican, of Iowa,
chairman of the House appropriations
committee, told the House that there
must be some mistake somewhere"
Whether repassage of the bill I'M
changed will be attempted or whether
the feature objected to by the Presi-
dent will he eliminated has not been
decided. The measure carries S1O4,-
900 900 for salaries and miscellaneous
expenses of many government depart-
ments, and ii must he approved in
some form before the end of June or
| these funds will lapse.
The section of the appropriation bill
| which led to the veto would prohlblt
| the printing or mimeographing of any
government publication except by au-
| thority of the joint committee. Such
provision. said the President, would
give to the committee power TO deter
mine what information shall be given
to the people of the country by the ex-
| ecutive departments"
"The obvious effect of this provi-
sion," said the President, 'would be to
give to that committee power to pre-
vent the executive departments from
mimeographing, multigraphing or 9th
erwise duplicating any material which
they desire, and in that way power to
determine what information shall be
given to the people of the country by
| the executive departments.
"Without raising any constitutional
| question, l think that this section
is an encroachment on the
functions of the executive and incom-
patible with good government"
| Both Senator Smoot and Represen-
tative Good, however, asserted that the
committee already had been given con-
troll over government publications by
an act which the President signed on
March L. 1919, and that the purpose of
the present provision was to extend
| that power so meritorious periodicals
could be continued.
There are now 155 government pub
lication sprinted without any authority
of law" said Mr.. Good. "They exist on
ly by sufferance of the joint commit
| tee. The bill which the President ap-
proved in March, 1919, was more
sweeping than the one now vetoed

his wounds were dressed. Steele is in
