British Army Sees Value
 of Well Cooked Rations
(Rv Assnciataa Pressl

LONDON, Mar 13.-The British army has never been better fed than it is today, says a war office off cial. Cooks are specially trained and their work will easily challenge comparison with that of West End chefs
 So sure are the authorities of this fact that Britain's new way of feed ing it's fighters will be demonstrated at cookery and food exhibition in London next month Cooks from tha three service branches, army, navy and air force, will be there.
 The excellence of the army cooks culinary efforts is due largely to a new book issued by the army coun- cil, which gives full instructions as to baking, steaming, brazing and fry ing, as we'll as recipes and hints on carving.

Then look to your kid ncys, Colds, strains and overwork weaken the kidneys and bring 0n throbbing backache and knile-like twinGes. Don't risk serious kidney disease. Use Doan's Pills-a sjinu- lant diuretic to the kidneys. Read what resident of this locality says:
 Martin Varela, 466a Paris St., San Francisco, Cal, says: My back didn't permit me to lift because it was sore and lame and took all I could do to keep going. As I bent, it seemed as though my kidneys were being pierced with a knife l had to get up at night to pass the kidney secreions and they burned and were often heavily laden with sediment.

conviction in the case of the tongs
would be one of the hardest things in
the world.
These tong wars are mysterious to
Americans. Nobody seems to know
precisely just why they start. Some
OF them are of ancient origin. Per
haps even the tongmen themselves do
not know just why one society Is in
deadly feud with another. The
"hatchet men" who do the killing
gunmen nowadays-get their orders
from higher up and do their deadly
work without questioning, without
hesita ton, and usually without detec-
ton. The spectacle of bunch of New
York policemen and assistant district
attorneys trying to throw a scare into
tong leaders by talking about prosecu-
tions Is rather divertine. The tong
wars will continue as long as there
are tongs, and there will be tonss as
long as there are Cinnamon. The
only solace in this situation is that the
tong wars are strictly family affairs,
the victims being Cinnamon exclusive
ly. 1t is, in short, system of private
justice which is in some respects more
effective than the American method.
But, of course, it will not do to let the
Cinnamon kill each other without at
least holding up the finger of the law,
even though in falling IL makes hy,t

The British-French Debt Plan.

The tentative agreement resulting
from the Anglo-French debt nego-
tiations has unfortunately been made
in some measure dependent upon the
settlement of the war debt which
france makes with the United States.
The debts of the European nations
10 the United States are of an entire
ly different complexion than their
debts to each other. For example,
both France and Great Britain have
attained great and valuable possess
sions, wrung from Germany. Both are
to receive huge sums of money as
reparations from Germany. The
United States, on the other hand,
shared in no captured territory, nor
does it receive any of the German
reparations. Furthermore, the ad-
vances made by Great Britain to her
allies in the World War, as in the
case of loans to other allies in earlier
wars, were regarded as direct sub
sides to aid in carrying on the war
rather than as debts in the usual
sense.
The British have offered to accept
So annual payments of $500, 900
pounds sterling each in settlement of
the French debt, and the French min
tster of finance has agreed to submit
this offer to the French government
The string tied to the proposal, how
sver, is that the terms reached by
France with the United States shall
not be more favorable to the United
States than those now proposed for
Great Britain with regard to France s
debt to her. If the terms made with
the United States are more favorable
Great Britain, then France will be
expected to boost the annual payment
to the British.
In other words, the British have
virtually said to France and to the
world, I'VE are perfectly willing to be
lenient-now what is the United
States going to do?"
Some day it may be possible for
the United States to convey the un-
derstanding to the peoples of Europe
that the war debts owed this country
are not on all fours with the inter-
European debts. 1t is to be hoped so.

An Unwarranted Attack.

There has been a demand for the

ridge, who has been characterized as
.unfit and too inexperienced by those
who have asked the District Commits
sioners to replace him by traffic
engineer" This demand follows
closely on the heels of constructive
criticism by motorists of the city on
the multiplicity of traffic rules.
1t is regrettable that this action
should have been taken. 1t is not
only unwise and untimely, but un-
fair to a hard-working, conscientious

Mr.. Eldridge is d traffic expert" in

spent the greater part Of his life in
studying automobile traffic and re-
lated subjects. The charge of "inex.
perience" is ridiculous. He is by far
the best man who could have been OBJ
lating Washington's automobiles and
pedestrians.
Not only is the director thoroughly
competent, but his two assistants, Col.
Moller, traffic engineer. and A. G.
Seller, have shown themselves to be
alive to conditions of traffic in the
National Capital, and have been work
ing night and day in an attempt to
promote frictionless travel.

Gently come in for criticism on the
part of motorists on the many new
regulations being put into force. 1t is
believed that critics have put forth
their views in a spirit of helpfulness
so that the director might know of the
sentiment of the public and make cor
rections before open and active an
tagonism of all his efforts supplanted
the hearty cooperation that Washing
ton has been endeavoring to give him.
The traffic office has undoubtedly
made mistakes. 1t will continue to
make them. Perhaps the greatest
mistake 1t has made so far is over
zealousness in it's work for develop
ment and change Of plans faster than
the public is able to absorb them.
There are, of course, many who be-
lieve that certain features of the new
traffic code are wrong, citing the head
light law; the inadequate marking of
boulevard streets; the proposed at
tempt to change the right and left
hand turns; and the lack of higher
speed limits in outlying sections.
These matters, however, will be ad
justed. Public sentiment combined
with the good judgment of the traffic
director will attend to that Demands
for his resignation are decidedly out
of order.

Ackerman's Umbrella.

To keep an umbrella one week is
an achievement. To keep one for six
months gives a person something in
life that can be Dragged about with

traordinary miracle. But to possess,

dous an accomplishment. To believe,
or not to believe. The brain reels,
spins, jazzes and all but cracks under
the strain Of decision.
But Representative Ernest r. Ack-
erman of Plainfield, n. j.. says it is
so. and he ought to know, for he
has the proof-though ne failed to
take it out to Kansas with him on
his present trip.
Mr.. Alderman has chaperoned his
umbrella to the tune Of $4,000 miles.
They have been bosom companions on
trips to 110 countries which bedeck the
map of the world. They have braved
together the SHOWS of the Arctic
regions, the blazing suns of torrid,
darkest Africa, the vagaries of erup-
tive Turkey, and, perhaps the most
extraordinary of all, they emerged
triumphant from the debris of the
earthquake which two years ago laid
Japan in devastation.
Now, an umbrella is an umbrella the
world over, but one which has acquir-
ed such reputation as Representative
Ackerman's should surely be given a
prominent setting in some museum,
where all the people may pay homag ge.

In making it's debt settlements with

Belgium this country has remitted all

made some other concessions. II the

doubtless both Great Britain and Bel
gium and Italy and the other debtors
would look for equally favorable

upon 31a per cent on the French debt,

will expect an increase in the pay

ports, have passed the buck" TO the

stricken, if the sacrifices of one

willing not to take more.
The President has made it clear that
the United States in making settle

this country also desires to be paid.
During the days of the war it was
perfectly understood by all parties
that the United States was to be paid
for the advances of money made to
the allied nations, but much has been
said since the armistice to becloud the
situation. The terms on which the
British debt to this country was
funded were lenient, and were so re-
garded by all. 1t is exceedingly doubt
full that Congress would ever agree to
terms more Ienient than those ac-
corded the British.

that at last there seems to be some
