Cotton Belt Will
 Pay 16 Cents Per
 Pound for Engines

The Cotton Belt railway will pay approximately 16 cents per pound for it's new locomotives, $1,000,000 worth of which have been ordered, and 10 of which will be ready for use on this section of the road by June |. This announcement was made yester- day by Jack Estes, representative of President J. M. Harbert.
 Figures of 1917 give the cost as nine cents per pound, they are thus compelled to expend nearly twice as much for their engines as was spent three years ago. The new locomotives ordered by the St. ouis-Southwestern will be of the 2-8-0 type, and each will have tractive power of more than 5o,000 pounds.
 A great many locomotives, it is said, have been continued in service during the war and the subsequent period of federal control that prob ably could have been retired under normal conditions, owing to the pol icy of buying equipment and power in the declining days of government control; also for the reason that the traffic offered has been of such large volume.

NARROWING

The republica presidential race Johnson of California, has received several discouraging setbacks. Sen ator Poindcxter of Washington, has made little impression, even in his own northwest, and in other sections of the country has alienated organ ized labor. MT. Lowden continues strong and General Wood also is gaining in strength at the expense of everyone but MT. Lowden. At the present time it looks as though the republican race would narroJ to a choice between Wood and Lowdon. Wood is a soldier. All of his life has been spent in the army. Low den is a new light in politics but q man who has made a reep i.Hpfes- sion and who has wonderful rec ord as governor of the largest mid western state. Neither of them is exceptional The faults of the deln- ocratic party is the strongest asset either has.
 Neither has taken definite stand on the peace treaty (which promises to be the paramount issue If the campaign. Lowden, answering Sen ator Borah's questionaire, evaded the issue. Wood wants league that is thoroughly "Americanized," which means almost nothing.
 The situation is brighter for the democrats than it was several months ago. The republican party of fcrs nothing and the two leading re- publican candidates will have to be carried into office by the party if they expect to win.

Albert Pike is
 Name of Proposed
 New Road Venture

Hot Springs, Mar. 29.--1nto the good roads convention spotlight now steps the Albert Pike Highway asso- citation, and the men who are inter- ested in the building of road from the Arkansas Spa to Pike's Peak, Col, are coming to Hot Springs for their convention from Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado and Arkansas.
 The Albert Pike Highway associa- tion will hold it's session during the week of April 12 70 Is, and will be a big factor in making those dates the biggest week in the interest of good roads the country has ever known, of the United States good roads and the Bankhead national highway asso- citation are also to meet in this city the same week.
 Big Delegation Coming.
 Director General J. A. Roundtree, of the United States Good Roads and Bankhead National Highway associa- tions, is in receipt of a letter from Secretary E. Bee Guthrie, of the AL bert Pike Highway association, stating that big delegation of members of that body would be in Hot Springs for the convention.
 Governor Robertson will head the Oklahoma party. United States Sen ator Owens of Oklahoma, will also attend the convention. Henry Wood, state highway commissioner of that state, will also be with the Oklano- mans. In his letter to Director Gen. eral Rountree, Secretary Guthrie also stated that he had been informed by Frank A. Davis of Kansas City, Mo-, secretary of the Associated Highways of America, that he, too, would attend the convention.
 To Unveil Marker.
 On April 15, officers and delegates of the Albert Pike Highway associa- tion and the Bankhead National High way association will participate in the unveiling of a beautiful concrete road marker that is being erected about two miles from Hot Springs by Burton D. Hurd, first vice president of the four states branch of the Bankhead National Highway. The marker is situated where the four states branch of the Bankhead and Albert Pike Highways meet coming into Hot Springs.
 On each side of the marker, which will be 10 feet in length, there will be placed the names of the towns and distances from Hot Springs. The marker will betriangular in shape, with the arrow head pointing into the Spa. The official markers of both associations will be placed on top of the marker. It will be unveiled with special ceremony, and all delegates to the three big roads conventions will be invited to go to the scene. It is anticipated that this parade of autos out of Hot Springs will be the largest pageant of it's kind this city has ever seen.
 Addresses will be made by Presi- dent Allen of the Bankhead National Highway association, and President Cyrus G. Avery of the Albert Pike Highway association. Motion pictures of the unveiling will also be taken.

Nitti Declares He Never Chased
 JugO-Slavs Enemies

Rome, Mar. 29.-Premier Nitti de- clared in the chamber of deputies to- day that he had never regarded the Jugo-Slavs as enemies, but had re- garded them as friends. He express ed hope that they would soon par take of Italian economic advantages
 While anxious to bring about a friendly understanding with the Jugo-Slavs," he declared, "there is another solution to demand the en- forcement of the pact of London. France and Great Britain have stated that if Italy desired the application of the pact they would not refuse as they hold themselves bound by it. If Italy is compelled to demand the car rying out of the convention it will be necessary to make its complete enforcement"

CASE OF MRS BUSCH

The case of Mrs. Busch, widow of the St. Louis brewer, who charges that she was treated with indignity by U. s. agents who admitted her to the United States after a sojourn of four years in Germany is one that should be investigated. It should be investigated primarily not because of any misdoings it may show upon the spart of the U. s. agents, but to reveal what an American woman who was great ally of the kaiser con- siders an indignity. Mrs. Busch's aid to Germany which was given be- fore the United States entered the war, and openly withdrawn after the United States entered the war, was of great help to the Germans. The husbands of her daughters were in the German army. She had thou sands invested in Germany and gave thousands more to the German cause. All of this was money made in the United States. While she may have remained thoroughly American throughout, it is difficult to see how she could have escaped to q certain extent becoming sympathetic with the German cause. Returning some time after we were at war with Germany such woman naturally would be subjected to close exam ination and to severe tests. If it is this that she means by indignities. there should be no censure of the U. $. agents.
