WORKS PROGRAM
CALLED WASTEFUL
Theodore Roosevelt Declares
Direct Cash Aid Would
Cost Half as Much.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, December 28-
Theodore Roosevelt, former Governor
Of the Philippines attacked the public
works program today as costly and
wasteful, and said that direct cash aid
for the unemployed would cost only
half as much.
His remarks were contained in a
speech prepared for delivery today be-
fore q luncheon meeting of the Manu-
facturers and Bankers Club of Phila-
delphia.
Let us meet the matter squarely on
a basis of direct cash aid for the un-
employed" he said. 1T will cost only
one-half as much to States and Nation
as We pay in the public works program.
1t will also give to those unavoidably
unemployed sense Of security which
they lack now, when they can look
forward only to spasmodic employment
on specific public projects"
The chief point of his speech was q
plea for a balanced budget.
IF we do not balance the budget
soon," he said, Imitation will be in
evitable and our credit will of neces-
sity be destroyed"
ITO sum up" he concluded, "I feel
that to meet our present situation the
country must-(a) increase taxes where
practical, bearing in mind the danger
involved, (b) economic in Govern
ment operations and (c) discard our
haphaZard method of dealing with our
unemployment as a homecoming phe
nOmenon and face it squarely by
"(D The work camps.
"(2) Full use of the Federal emer-
gency relief act under the conditions I
have outlined for cash relief.
"(3) Such additional aid as may come
from a public works program based on
paying investments and necessities, the
organized individual actions of various
companies on emergency unemployment
funds, old-age pensions, etc, and "a
some stimulus for the capital indus
tries"
The American Nation must face
facts or fall"

LLOYD GEORGE
CR|T|C|ZES
WILSON

LONDON, Oct 20.-How close
President Wilson came to commit
ting the United States to war in
the early spring Of 1915 is revealed
in the second volume Of David
Lloyd Georges war memoirs, just
published here.
Only one cautious word-"prob-
ably"-in a cable from President
Wilson prevented the allies from
getting clear-cut pledge of Amer
lean intervention If Germany re-
jected their peace terms.
That one word of "timidity," as
Mr.. Lloyd George sorrowfully de-
Scribes it, was enough to cause the
whole project to fall through.
The incident was an outgrowth
Of the Presidents own project to
call conference Of the warning
nations to discuss peace.
Leading British statesmen had
told Col. Edward M. House they
"CAC 4CduJ AOI pSdCC IL IcA cAAAdAly
restored Belgium, Serbia, Alsace
and Lorraine, adjusted" the Aus
tro-Italian frontier and gave Rus
Sia an outlet to the sea.
In return, the British were will
ing to offer Germany "compensa-
tions outside Europe" but insisted
on guarantees against future re-
eurrence of such a catastrophe as
this World War;"
The intention was that If the
Germans refused to accept these
terms the United States would
throw in her lot with the allies
Immediately.
Mr.. Lloyd George taunts Presi-
dent Wilson with having been
@afraid of public opinion in the
United States" and Lord Grey
with having been frightened of
our allies" and suggests that if it
had not been for the one word
probably" the whole war would
have been shortened by the help
Of the United States.

BaniShed' Cats
OfROme Hide
In Coliseum

ROME G.N.S0.-When the
tribes of cats were taken from
Trajan's Forum two years ago,
Romans and tourists wondered
what had become Of them.
DwellerS in the artist quarter
knew that a few had honored
them with their company, at
night especially. But nobody
knew what had been the fate
of the rest Of them.
A young American girl has
discovered the secret. Visiting
the Coliseum recently, she saw
a pretty kitten. 1t fell into the
place where lions once were
Gagged below the level of the
floor.
She implored a friendly Off
cial to save it. He did so, and
found that the cage was the
home of hundreds Of cats Of all
sorts and sizes.
Bowls of food were ranged
against the wall in a dark cor.
ner.

ANDY MELLON MADE DE-
 PENDANT IN TAX SUIT

WASHINGTQN.-Andrew Mellon, ambassador to Great Britain and for mer secretary of the treasury, and two former members of the internal revenue bureau, were named. defend- ants in a $22O,O0O,000 suit charging alleged connivance with officers -. of foreign steamship companies to evade just income taxes.
 Named with Mellon were David H. Blair, one-time commissioner of in- ternal revenue, and Alexander w.. Gregg, former acting general counsel for the bureau.
 The suit was filed in the District of Columbia supreme court by David A. Olson, who resigned recently as in- vestigator for the Senate stock quiz committee after charging his efforts were being blocked by members of the committee.
 The papers alleged that Mellon not only faced one hundred million dollars in delinquent taxes from foreign steamship interests but placed the Government in such position that it was compelled to refund some $1O,- 900, ,000 to the companies, which were not named in the usit
 The suit was filed in Olson's name in behalf of the people of the United States so that any damages awarded would revert to the United States treasury.
