French Playing a Hand.
The French government has some
matters which it wants to have settled
over in Europe. 1t wants a better un-
Outstanding with Great Britain con-
corning certain continental matters.
The French have been playing hand.
They know the exact position of the
British brethren on the submarine mat
ter and they are trying to secure some
promises from the island government
before yielding on U-boats. This is the
way 1t looks to the side-line observers
in this conference town.
The truth is that the administration
does not seem to be worrying particu-
larly over the smaller matters which
have come to trouble the conference.
1t looks upon the Horsepower treaty as
being an assured fact of the future; 1t
looks upon the naval holiday as being
a certainty, and 1t thinks that in a
general way a firm foundation has
been laid for peaceful proceedings in
the Orient. If a man is given mil
lion dollars he can afford to look with
equanimity on the possible loss of hun
dreds.
other Worries of Administration.
If the prophets of evil are right, and
if Washington officialdom knows that
they are right, the placidity with which
the administration looks upon things
today is astounding The truth is that
the President and his advisers are per-
haps more than satisfied with the way
that things have gone. 1t is known
that they looked for trouble on certain
minor matters, and instead of being
worried at troubles appearance they
are somewhat surprised it did not loom
larger than it has.
There are other things than tempo
rary or possibly permanent difficulties
in the way of a complete conference
agreement to engage the attention of
the administration. The party upon
whose success perhaps depends re-
nomination for President Harding is
not behaving itself as well as it might
in the person of it's representatives in
house and senate. There are Repub-
licans who say this boldly. It is only
fair to say however, that finally the
advice of certain wise politicians who
are not in congress seems to have had
its effect.

Vast Mass Of Material,


In the National museum the devel-
Opment step by step Of all the great
weapons of offense for use on sea and
on land is portrayed. The first sue
cessful heavier-than-air flying machine
Langley's contriyance, is on exhibition,
and with it is the latest of the great
aircrafts. If any American father
wants to see everything which his son
came in touch with in the army or
navy Of his country, he can find it
| in the National museum, and it makes
no difference whether the lad was an
artilleryman, an engineer, an infantry
man, gas man, a machine gunner, an
aeronaut, or was content to serve in
any one of the equally necessary
branches of the service of supplies.
The National museum contains every
thing which had anything to do with
service in the great war.
1t takes days to go through this war
material. Among the most interesting
Of the exhibits are some of the war
pictures which were painted by Ameri-
can artists while actually at the
! 'front.' or in the devastated regions Just
back of the front. 1t may not be
generally known, but Uncle Sam real
lied in advance the value of paintings
of the great war. He did not intend
to wait on the possibilities of the fu-
ture to secure them, nor did he intend
to be compelled, If he could help it,
to pay enormous sums for pictures
painted by artists working on their
own responsibility in the embattled
regions.
The result was that the War depart
ment gave commissions in the army
to a considerable number of noted
American artists, and then put them
under orders ito paint" 1t should be
said for these artists that they ran
all the dangers of war in order to do
their work properly and to get into ii
the spirit of the front.

War Exhibits in Museum.

Novel writer's, essay writer's, and
even history writer's seem to have
taken notice of the fact that the
people are tired of reading about
the war. Perhaps the tire" is more
in the seeming than in the reality, but
the truth remains that sO-called war
literature is just now at low ebb.
Government officials, however, know
that interest in the great war ia
bound to revive, and that the present
generation will have a share Of the
revival, and that future generations
in retrospect will have the keenest in
terest in the great conflict. Wash
ington, therefore, is taking pains to
preserve what may be called a COM
plete series of pictures, of material
and documents concerning the war for
civilization.
In the great National museum in
Washington today there is in process
Of emplacement for permanent exhibit
ton purposes every possible thing
which the government can lay hands
on which bears a part in depicting
the progress of the greatest war that
the world has ever known. The gov
eminent has an immense amount of
material, and large part of it has
been turned over to the directors of
the National museum for permanent
ownership and permanent exhibition
When permanent ownership is spoken
of it should be said that in truth it
rests with the people, for everything
that is in the keeping of the National
museum hnIoppc In +ha birboct coDso

An ordinary passenger locomotive
consumes a pound of fuel for every -
feet it travels. Every unnecessary
stop, made with a heavy freight or
passenger train. represents fuel loss
of from 800 to 700 pounds of coal
depending on the weight of the train.
the length of the stop, and the grade
conditions, writes Floyd w. Parsons
in the Worlds Work. A brakeline air
leak on a train of 80 freight cars has
been known To cause loss of as much
as 2.540 pounds of coal in ten-hour
period. The loss Of coal every time
n modern locomotive pops OFF for five
minutes is about 20 pounds. If loco
motive iiremen were to save little
more than one shovelful of coal out
of every ton used. the total saving
would be equal To nearly l per cent
of all the coal handled.
