} H i LORD NORTHCLIFF E ASSERTS THERE WILL BE NO_TRACEDY OF UNITED STATES IN WAR British Editor Responds to Invita- tion of Lloyd George to Enter Cabinet. AMERICA FITTED TO LEAD IN MANAGEMENT Vigorous Admonition to British Government to Speed Up Its Efficiency. London, Nov. 16.—Lord Northcliffe’s Jetter to Premier Lloyd George, dated from the London office of the British mission to the United States, as follows “Dear Prime Minister: “I have given anxious consideration to your repeated invitations that I should take charge of the new air ministry. The reason which impelled me to decline that great honor and re- sponsibility are in no way concerned with the office, which is rightly to be set up. They are roughly as follows: “Returning after five months spent in the virile atmosphere of the United States and Canada, I find that while these two countries are proceeding with their war preparations with a fervor and enthusiasm little under- stood on this side of the Atlantic; while the United States instantly put into operation conscription over which we wobhkled for two years, and is making short work of sedition mon- gers; while Canada already has given such proofs of thoroughness as the disfranchisement of conscientious ob- jectors and the denaturalization of all enemy aliens naturalized within the last 15 years; while we, for our part, are asking immense sacrifices from these peoples, there still are in offices here those who dally with such urg- ent questions as that of unity of war control, eradication of sedition, mobi- lization of the whole man and woman power of the country and the intro- duction of compulsory food rations. Personal Experience. | “I had personal experience while in America of the obstruction and delay in certain departments in London, which, for example. postponed send- ing Lord Reading's vital and most suc- cessful mission. | find the censorship still being misused and that men in various positions of authority who should have been punished, have been, retained and in some cases elevated. The, spirit of the men and women of Great Britain is clearly as eager and splendid as ever. ‘We have, in my belief, the most efficient army in the world, led by one of the greatest gen- erals and | am well aware of the fine achievements of many others of our soldiers, sailors and statesmen, but I feel in the present circumstan that I can do better work if I maintain my , independence, and.am not, gagged by | a loyalty that, 1 do mot feel towards ® the whole-of your administration. | “May | also take this opportunity of giving warning about our relafions with that great people from whom I come. We have had the tragedy of Russia, partly to lack of allied propa- ganda to counteract that of the Ger- mans. We have had the tragedy of Italy, largely due to that same enemy propaganda. We have had the trage- dies of Serbia, Rumania and Montene- gro. There is one tragedy which | am sure we shall not have, and that is the tragedy of the United States. May Take Over Management. “But from countless conversations with leading Americans 1 know that) unless there is swift improvement i our methods here, the United States will rightly take into its own hands the entire management of a great part i of the war. It will not sacrifice its blood and treasure to the incompetent handling of the affairs of Europ “In saying all this, which is ver. much on my mind, believe me, | have THE ” The Northwest Hotel A High-Clas tice kes S0c day and Stage rove with beth, $1.00 voy Renaing hot and cold water m every toom Opposite McKenzie Hotel @ EUROPEAN Abs j Gulekene, per lb. .. be.

The big signs blazed until 11 o'clock and then were snuffed out just as the theater throngs were pouring into the streets. Here and there were cases of light where modest signs illumined the portals of some famous hotel or restaurant. But it didn’t seem like Broadway. a’ i AMERICANS JOIN CANADIANS.

STILL WIDELY DIFFER ON MATTER OF RATES Washington, Noy. 15.—The question of the government loaning ‘money to the railroads was brought forward the first time officially today at the cross examination of eastern railroad offi- cials in the 15 per cent advance rate case before the interstate commerce commission. Samuel Rea, president of the Pennsylvania road, said, that|, he believed. that, goyernments, should be seriously considered, and later Clif- ford Thorne, counsel for: many import- | ant shippers,” stated’ he believed: ‘it |4 the proper’ solution’ for ‘the railroad |! situation. Mr. Rea testified, however, that, should the money be:forthcoming fro mthe government {tought not to affect the proposed freight increase, while shippers counsel believed the plan should ‘be made effective in lieu of the rate increase. Mr. Rea’s statement came after he; testified that the Pennsylvania could not get more freight cars until the; middle of next year, that he did not believe it possible to increase the out- put of locomotives becauso of! the la-| bor situation, and that‘he did) not be-| lieve it: would be right to attempt: bona ; flotation) while the (government: was attempting: to.amake’ large’ war. loans. NON-ESSENTIAL, COMMODITIES. | Washington, Nov. 15.—Dental of rait| transportation to more than 500 com- modities classed as non-essential was; recommended to the government to-/ day by the railroad war board. At) the same time the board put out a statement declaring the country's rail-; roads at the present rate of increase in traffic will be unable to meet de-| mands that will be made on them this winter. 7 HALE HOLDEN ON STAND. New York, Nov. 15.—Railroads are handling the greatest traffic in the! history of the country, and it is un- fair, because there are unfilled car} orders, to say they have broken down, |! declared Hale Holden, president of the Burlington railroad, and a member of the railroads war board, at a din- ner given by the Industrial Traffic! league here tonight. The league is| holding its annual meeting. Necessity of decreasing traffic by} nents and travel was emphasized by | Mr. Holden. | It was only a little more than two years ago, Mr. Holden said, in refer- ing to the tremendous increase on railroad traffic, that. there were ap- proximately 350,000 idle cars in the country. On May 1 last there was an excess of cars ordered over cars ! supplied of 148,627, he said, and in September this had been reduced to 31,591, or 78 per cent. Since then there has been a considerable increase | in unfilled orders, and Mr. Holden pre- dicted here will be a further increase. Since the war approximately 25,000,- 000 miles annually have been with- drawn from passenger service, Mr. Holden declared, and this has released a great many men for more import- ant work and has accomplished a con- siderable saving in coal. The public may have tu submit to further curtail- ment of passenger service and to fore go some of the comforts and the con- Yeniences which it now has, he added.

Atlanta, Ga., . 15,—Frank F Packard, state tax commissioner o day in allied legations and embassies here a feeling that German influence had played a part in starting this move, which may prove embarrassing to the kaiser’s enemies. The fear now is that a determined action by the Carranza government may result in the long feared attempt to destroy the oil properties. In some quarters here, however, it is believed that Carranza will hesitate to drive the rebels to that point, in view of the political and economic dangers in- volved. Reports from Mexico City indicate some improvement in revolutionary conditions south of the capital. Kaiser Says Super U-Boat Yet to Come Vessel Will Determine Issue of War. RUTHLESS CAMPAIGN " CONTINUES TO END Amsterdam, Nov. 16.—The German emperor, according to'a Berlin dis- patch, in addressing the U-boat crews development of the submarines, said hat a voyage of three or four weeks now was an everyday occurrence, and declared that the development of the U-boats had not reached its highest point.
