Berlin.-Thc counter revolution in
Germany appears to have reached the
end of the road There is strong
probability that one government will
be in control and that President Ebert
will come back to Berlin with his min
listers. A bnsis of agreement between
the government set up by DIR. Wolf
gang Kapp AS chancellor and that of
President Ebert is enuncated in dec
laration issued by the present Berlin
government. Announcement IS made
that negotiations toward Il settlement
have been opened between the two
governments Mt the instance of Presi-
dent Ebert and his associates. There
is, however, no direct confirmation of
this from Ebert, who is understood to
be at Stuttgart. Chancellor Kapp is
agreeable to continuance of the pres
ent imperial president''-who is Fred
erich Ebert; he rcnounces formation
OF new ministry and placing direc-
tion Of affairs in the hands of the
undersecretaries of state.
The agreement, as set forth by Chan
cellOr Enpp provides for cabinet,
which shall include professional min
listers, or experts; elections within
two months for members of the Reich
stag and the Prussinn National As
sembly, and subsequently an election
for Imperial president by the people
until which time Ebert shall hold
office.

onstrated ability to get at facts

TO F. D. Roosevelt. and to denials
the latter has made. The position
in which Rathom's statements leave
that candidate is not a pleasant one.
Some time ago the Providence
Journal declared editorially that it
had ample evidence to show that
Roosevelt has seQuestered or destroy
ed Navy Department records; that
he had personally sought many times
to return to our warships from the
Portsmouth Naval Prison, men who
had been convicted of unnatural
crimes and arson, bigamy, theft, etc.,
and that he. with his friend Thomas
Mott Osborne. had deliberately
whitewashed and covered up the de.
plorable conditions existing at that

Our Problem Of National Defence

As i, ave frequently pointed out
in these columns the airplane in its

completely upset long accepted con-
ception of war on land and on sea.
With the best inventive and en-

doubt that within short time air

terly change the methods of conduct

Comparatively little encouragement
has been given to the air service by
the United States. The feverish &C
tivity of the war period has not been
peace. Preparedness has lost its force
as a policy The costly experiences
of defenceless nation in the world
war seem to have been forgotten.
1t is confidently asserted by men
who should know that because oil

of the fleet has already been seri-

Uncle Sans Batting Averages
