First a congressional investigation of the war department was started: General Crozier’s testimony showed that there had been delay in getting guns of one kind or: another for the army. Then Roosevelt broke loose with his editorial attack on Baker ahd the admitistfdtion. ‘ The’ Kérisas City Star followed up with a declaration that “Baker must go.” Right on the heels of that cdme Washington cor- respondence to tlié Philadelphia ‘North American ‘attempting to show Baker up as the obstruttionist. at tHe war de. partment. es Both papers were leading support- ers of Roosevelt in 1912 and 1916.

The Real Reason. The real reason Secretary Baker refused to lét Roosevelt go to France in command of an American army was! not political. He didn’t qiiestion eith-- er Roosevelt's patriotism or his sincer- ity. But Baker felt that he was per-! sonally responsible for the fullest possible protection of every American soldier boy who went to France. He, didn't want their lives risked in spec-! tacular but misguided and unmilitary } exploits of heroism. He determinéd ‘that they‘ woilld go over there fn! charge of the very best and most ex-| perienced leaders in the army. So Gen-! eral Pershing-was the first command- er sent to France.

No Ameri-! can arthy was expected to go on td} the firtmg Me before the spring of 1918. Tie'allies didn’t expect it, and didn’t dsk-fof it. Everything will bé done according to schedule—every- thing our soldiers need will be on hind in abundance before it is needed: ‘They will have the best rifled, the best machiné gins, ‘the hest munitions; thd best clothing, the best food and the can get. 5 No Cause for Fear. The felatives and friends. of our sol- diers in’ France should not permit poli- ticians to frigliten them. The truth will all’ come out, and it will prove! that our secretary of war has refused preferred death by starvation to loss of self-respect. Meanwhile General Sir Archibald Murray’s army advancing from Egypt had crossed Sinai Peninsula and struck at Gaza. His proclamation, an- nouncing England‘s intention to give Payestine back to the Jews, reached the colonists, who could not control their joy. The German alkenhayn smiled good-naturedly. But the saturnine fea- tures of Djemal Pasha flushed with rage, and he prepared to punish the jubilant Jews. Under the pretext of “military ne- cessity,” Which later he explained to mean @ desire to save Chem from bom- Bardment by sea and air, Djemal Pasha, last March 28, ordered the Jews to evacuate Jaffa by the first of the following month.

Pe The roads to the Jewish colonies swarmed with thousands of men, wom- en and children, harrassed by soldiers and marauders, and many dicd in their tracks. Tao colonists abandoned their crops which they were then harvesting, and sent hundreds of wagons and carts to hasten the refugees to places of safe- ty, and the Shomerin made ready for battle. The American consul at Jerusalem, Dr. G. Glazebrook, joined: with other neutral diplomats in a formal protest to Djemal, wha made a show of yield- ing. But it soon developed that he was plapning even greater outrages, including the evacuation of Jerusalem and the destruction of the colonies. Indeed, he had already begun to destroy the new forests which had been planted by the Jewish farmers, and the Harzl forest, planted by Zion- ists from all over the world in mem- ory of the great leader of the govern- ment, was stripped of over 51,000 olive trees. But before. he could carry out his more ambitious program of outrage, a courier who risked his life a hun- dred times, and whose name must not yet be disclosed, made his way out of Palestine and cabled the news to the Provisional Zionist committee in New York.

It is reported that there was a stormy scene between the German general and the Turkish officer, which resulted in the removal of Djemal from his office as military governor of Palestine. As this is being written, the Union Jack is floating over a score of Jew- ish colonies, through which the Turk- ish army with the British forces jat its heels, fled so precipitately that they dared not pause for loot or van- dalism, and “the bride has welcomed the bridegroom,” i POLICE SEARCH FOR ° 4 MEN WHO HOLD UP | WHITE BEAR BANKER, St. Paul, Minn., Dec. 28.—Police of St. Paul and = Minneapolis are searching for four men who robbed ‘the First State bank of White Bear a} summer resort suburb of this city, of more than $5,500 in a daring day-! light robbery shortly after 1 p. m. to- day.
