VETERANS SHOW WRATH.
Paris War Heroes Return L. s. Honor
Medal to Borah.
By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News

By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
PARIS, September 16.-Finance
Minister Caillaux needs all the good
wishes which were showered on him
and his delegation, which left today
for Washington to discuss an event
ual settlement of the war debt ques-
ton. 1t will not be only America
that he will have to convince what
France can and cannot do. Once the
problems are settled there, he will
have another bitter struggle with his
own people, to induce them to ac-
cept the arrangements eventually to
be reached at Washington.
Quite few people in France under.
stand that the welfare of their coun-
try depends much on the settlement
OF war debts, but the majority still
believes that the World War was a
holy war, consequently the money
question should not be considered.
The quiet manifestation made by
French war veterans last night at the
American embassy is typical Of the
frame of mind of 80 per cent of
Frenchmen. Capt. Pierre Hericourt.
one of the war veterans and leading
the delegation Of 10 War-maimed
soldiers, returned to First Secretary
Hallett Johnson of the American en-
bassy a distinguished service medal
conferred upon a French soldier by
the American Government for saving
the life of an American officer at the
front, with the remark: Hand this to
Senator Borah. We do not need 1t
any longer because we owe him SO
many dollars" Returned with the
medal was a wooden leg of a. man
who lost his own leg saving an Amer.
lean officer, and a steel helmet, which
were Ito remind Senator Borah of
the million and a half French soldiers
who were killed during the war
Secretary Johnson, somewhat puz
zled, accepted the objects and prom
ised to transmit them to the State
Department together with long let
ter protesting against 'preposterous
demands Of America to recover a war
debt from poor. bleeding France"
It Is with such sentiment solidly
represented in Parliament that Fl.
nance Minister Caillaux will have tc
cope when he returns to France II
perchance he succeeds in making ar
rangements with the Washington deb,
funding commission.

the 11ght-of-way to vehicles at boule-
ward intersections.
Director Eldridge told the commits
| sion that he wanted street cars TO
stop the same as vehicular traffic
before crossing a boulevard primarily
| in the interests of safety and not
merely because there might be more
traffic on the boulevard.
Mr.. Eldridge said that he agreed
with Mr.. Hanna that ii would be bet
ter to regulate all traffic by automatic
signals at these busy points. where
boulevards cross street car tracks, and
that the step signs were only a tempo
rary measure at such points until
funds are available to install auto
matte lights within a few years.
Charles W. Darr, speaking for the
Chamber of Commerce, contended that
If the stop signs are retained at the
points in question street cars should
stop like all other vehicles, but he said
| the chamber believed they should not
be made boulevard intersections unless
the Police Department is able to put
traffic officers there.
To Protect Pedestrians.
w. Pearce Rayner presented a state
traffic of the Board Of Trade, stating
that in the interest Of protection Of
| pedestrians and as a safety measure
| to prevent confusion all vehicles and
street cars should observe all boule-
ward stop signs and traffic control sig
nails, whether automatic or not. The
statement of Mr.. Rayner also favored
some form of protection for safety
zones other than white lines only.
"a a nfi ~ tea r,IN
| lection TO the opinion of Corporation
Counsel Stephens that the car COM
panies should pay the cost Of establish
ing safety zones for street car pas
sengers.
George E. Hamilton, president of that
| company, said he could find no law
| placing the cost of such work on the
company, and that he desired to state
frankly that If the commission orders
the companies to pay for such safety
zones the courts Will be asked to de-
eide whether the companies should
pay the bin.
The seven intersections on which the
| traffic director and street railway COM
| panies are unable to agree as to
whether street cars should stop are:
| Rhode Island avenue at Seventh,
New Jersey avenue. Florida avenue,
| Eleventh and Ninth streets; New York
| avenue at Seventh street, and Massa-
| chusetts avenue at Ninth street.
| Director Eldridge stated at the hear
! ing that it was unlikely that the speed
limit would be increased on the por-
| ton of boulevards lying within the old
city limits, south Of Florida avenue.
Later on, he said, an increased speed
| limit may be permitted on the boule-
wards outside Of the old city limits.
! When one speaker referred to the
| failure Of many motorists to observe
stop signs, Mr.. Eldridge declared this
was due to an uncertainty which has
arisen in the minds Of many motorists
| over the question of the present status
| Of the boulevards. Mr. Eldridge' said
that many people believe that If street
| cars do not stop at boulevards that
they do not have to stop.

Now we come to the second criticism
that a cheaper oil asphalt is. being
used instead of natural lake asphalt
Our street builders in the National
Capital have been laying lake asphalt
since 1878; they have been laying oil
asphalt since 1914. All our pavements
are good UP to 20 years and as a
rule are not resurfaced until they are
27 to 80 years Old SO it stands to
reason that the engineers have had
practical demonstration and know
from long years Of experience how
long lake. asphalt pavement can be
counted upon to last. They do not
know the endurance of oil asphalt for
the simple reason that they have not
been using 1t long enough.
Lake asphalt, 1t should be under
stood, is q natural product, with the
best known sources of supply on
Trinidad Island and the Bermudas de-
posit in Venezuela. The oil asphalt
is "a by-product of the process of
refining to get gasoline and other oils
from the crude oil as it comes from
the wells.
The United States Bureau Of Stand
ards, Uncle Sans great university for
testing the strength, purity and en-
durance of anything, gives scant help
in deciding the relative merits of lake
asphalt and oil asphalt. The spe-
cialists at the Bureau of Standards
say they have made absolutely no
tests to determine the relative
