A petition to Vice President Marshall from the Vigilantes accompanies the letters. It cites the o nization's impatience at the delay in the investigation of La Follette’s conduct and expresses the conviction that “ not a seditious ut- terance of Senator ILa Follette has been allowed to lie fallow.” “All the un-Amecrican publications | still allowed to continue their insid- | jous propaganda find him a wealth | of that treason they no longer dare Lo express from their own pens,” the | petition , “They clearly convey to | their r(*ndm\ that there can be no | real danger in defiance of the will of the country so long as La Follette is permitted to enjoy the honors, the emoluments and the privileges of membership in the highest council of | the nation.” Some of the individual expressions | of the authors are George W. Cable—La Follette has turned to license his right of free speech as a citizen and his immuni- ties as a senator. He has counte- | nanced the atrocious policies of for- | eign foes with whom we are at war. Wallace Irwin—If God will save us from the fate of a misguided Russia, coaxed to ruin by Pottsdam wolves in | pacifist clothing, we must begin now v silencing our sweet-voiced enemies at home. What use to cry, ‘Hang him,’ against a German fanatic with a bomb when a senator of the United States endangers our national being with ideas more destructive than a million bombs could be Meredith Nicholson—The toleration in our highest lawmaking body of a man who speaks the Berlin language is an insult to every American soldier and sailor and to every loyal Amer- ican citizen at home, Ethel Watts Mumford—My inter- ests as a writer have carried me into many places and among all classes and I have had personal experience of the effect of his seditions. No Excuse for Nation. Porter Emerson Browne—What ex- | cuse can the American nation offer | to the heart-broken father, to the weeping mother, of the American soldier who has made that ion the | supreme sacrifice, when, at the same time, it tolerates within its capital hington so frank, so magnifi- a seditionist as the Hon.

Amelia Josephine Burr-—If one is unable to co-operate with the Gov- ernment in times of cr it seems to me at least that it is his duty to re- linquish his associations with the Government. Theodosia Garrison—By his expul- sion or suspension from the Senate the work of preparedness would be speeded, and others of his opinion would be discouraged from attempt- ing to spread sedition. Rupert Hughes—La Follette not only rocks the boat, but he denounces the oarsmen, he slanders the bos'n, he bores holes in the bottom of the boat. And the storm is at its height. Augustus Thoma somewhat similar situation raised by Vallandig- ham” opposition to President Lin- coln’s war policies, Mr. Lincoln wrote: “Must I shoot a poor boy who deserts from the army, and must I not touch a hair of the head of the wiley agita- to who persuaded him to desert?’ Emerson Hough—He ought to be thrown out, so that we could go about our business of winning the war. Jdward Hungerford—I feel that situations such as this of La Follette, which have a direct bearing upon our conduect of the war, should have first and most immediate attention in this national crisis. Harrison Rhodes—He and should be got rid of. HOLDING wasted time ALIEN. He Declares, 1llowever, That He Wants to Be An American. Billings, Mont., Jan. 3.—F. K.

Everybody over there when they are coming and how many. fleet of fighting planes in the air b: spring.” This is the opinion of Major Robert W, Wood, the eminent phy- sicist who was sent abroad in Sep- tember by the United States govern- ment at the invitation of the French government to study scientific prob- lems connected with the conduct of the war. Major Wood returned his time te work in this country. “It ig not possible to emphasize this fact too strongly,” continued Major Wood. in the air and that in the future offen- sive tactics will play as great a part as the work of observation, but I am not at liberty to speak of these matters. “One thing about which much | popular misapprehension exists, how- ever, is fighting in the air. People imagine that airplane duels are every- day oceurrenc As a matter of fact they are comparatively rare. FPlanes are more apt to avoid each other than to fight. fights take place they are usually so high up as to be invisible to observers on the ground. “I saw an artillery officer who had been on the front for many months and had never seen a fight in the air. When I was outside Nancy one afternoon, just at sunset, I saw a Boche plane come over, it was up in the region where there was still sun- light, and the puffs of smoke from the shells fired by the anti-aircraft guns were turned to rose color by the I counted 120 of them, but the Boche made his getaway. “The effects of the torpedoes drop- ped from the Gothas are extraordi- nary. They will go straight down through a seven story building to the where they explode with a time fuse. Any house that has been hit in this manner acts as an explo- | sive. At Nancy I saw a house that had been struck, and the fragments of it had wrecked every house in the square on which it stood. “The anti-aircraft guns are mar- velous in their range and comparative accuracy. At St. Clement I saw a Zeppelin that had been brought down from 16.000 feet by an shell. Of course the Zeppelins move more slowly and make much better targets than airplanes. This particu- lar Zeppelin had just been brought down and it was still burning. Mo: of the crew had been carried away but I saw a hand sticking out from one end. It was a gruesome sight.” When asked to tell what were just most unforgetable experiences, Major Wood said that two stood out in his memory night bombardment airplanes at Nancy and a day at British front He continued our trip to the front we drove “On in a luxurious limousine down a corduroy | road with nine-inch howitzers on both sides firing over our heads. Afte we had gone as far as we could w put on steel helmets and gas masks and walked the rest of the way. W did not strike any gas, but the new gases arc pretty bad. They are not gases properly speaking, but liquids, that evaporate slowly and give off fume: Major Wood refused to define the exact nature of the scientific prob- lems that physicists are called upon to solve. “In a general some of them means of locating ods of signalling,” way cons atter] I may say that in devising and meth- he said. “It is curi- though, that with all our scien- devices, carrier pigeons been found most effective after all carrying messages to and from front lines. “I heard a in the about. bee remarkable story one of these pigeons. It had struck by a shell splinter and i driven up into its body in such a w that the dis ch was carried with it. In spite of being desperately wounded the bird flew all the way home and dropped dead inside the home cote.” According to Major Wood, America is not the only nation that is burdened with red tape “When I was in France I wanted a certain chemical for an important test, and T had to have it immediate- 1 A request through official chan- nel brought the information that Prof. —— had some of what I want- ed, it, as the request had (o be re- ed to several authoritic “‘I'll ask him m If,’ I said. assured that it was not en regle and couldn’t be done, but I didn't see it that way.

So it is some- times possible to cut req tape.” “Another thing struck me in France,” he continued. . *“The war has not speeded up certain things in France.
