MUST BE CHANGE OR CRASH LONDON, l\ov 127Ar'hur Lynch pationalist, today in the House of Commons, made a strong attack upon Lord Kitchener, who, he said, had dplundered in not moving to the de- fense of Liege, agaln on the question of munitions, and once again in Berbla. “The blunder in the Dardanelles,” Be added, “was at least a blunder of » man who meant to do something.” He contended that the war was | Peing conducted with signal incom- | petency and that unless there was a change the country was moving straight to disaster. He would sweep away 70 per cent of the higher | British command, beginning with Field Marshal French, who had been in command fifteen months *had made no progress.” In the last offensive, continued Mr. Lynch, the allies broke through the German lines, but in the superior command decision was wanting to take full advantage of the moral victory. The government he declared had no plan of campaign. The plca of a successful war of attrition was absurd. The war must be won in the field. The men were good and munitions were there. It was leader- ship and direction which were lack- ing. Limit to Endurance. After several members had spoken on various aspects of the war, Arthur A. Ponsonby, liberal, closing the debate for the critics of the government, said that while the situation was not so bad as it was palnted there was a limit to endur- snce, and that the chancelior of the ex- thequer could not but look with the grav- est apprehension to the future. After the war, he declared, the foreign office would have to be cleared out from top to bot- tom, Sir Bdward Grey, secretary for forelgn affairs, assured the house that if the government had not done as much as it should have liked for Serbia it had mot been from any want of good will. The French and British governments had offered to send 150,000 troops to Saloniki lo enable Greece to fulfill its treaty obli- pations to Serbia. Sent Men Avallable, They had sent the men who were avail- pble at once and had begun to make preparations for the transport of troops from other places, but these could not be obtained without due regard for the mili- lary exigencies. Then Greece changed its mind. After consultation with France, how- ever, it was decided to continue the dls- patch of treops to Salonikl. It was due pnly to the limitations imposed by the war that more had not been sent. The house formally agreed to a vote of predit of £400,000,000 (52,000,000,000) asked for by Premier Asquith. HYPHENATED LOBBYISTS WILL BE UNDER SCRUTINY WASHINGTON, Ncv. 2. — Careful watch will be kept on lobbyists during the coming busy season of congress, ac- cording to Senator Overman, chairman of the senate's special lobby committee. *The committee is still alive,” sald Mr. Overman today, “and will be kept alive for the purpose of inquiring Into any in- gidious lobbying that may be attemped during the next congress as a result of problems growing out of the European war. He mentioned proposals to prohibit pales of war munitions to belligerents and | the national defense program as issues likely to draw all kinds of outside pres- pure upon members of congres 'BULGARS ALLOWED BUT TWO HOURS TO BURY DEAD LONDON, Nov, 12—According to in- formation received from a Greek frontier corre- | spondent, “fighting on a large scale has | station,” says Reuter's Saloniki been proceeding since yesterday between and John Lind. SinLiman & L/ND CONFER wirt CARRANZA Large Part of Swiss Army Will Go Home BASEL, Switzerland (Via Parls), Nov. 12—-A considerable porilon of the Swiss army will be sent home from the Swiss frontler November 13, as it appears that the government is convinced no danger of territortal violations by the belligerents now exists. The expense of maintaining upward of 200,000 men under arms has been a try- {ing burden. | The government has been kept in & state of constant anxiety month after month by what was believed to be confi- dential, trustworthy information concern- ing designs against Switzerland by one or another of the belligerents, all of which turned out to be inaccurate. However, ample forces will be retained at strategic points, ENGLAND EXPLAINS WHY IT SEARCHED HOCKING MILWAUKEE, Wis., Nov. 12.—Johnny has informed the United States that the cause of the detention of the American steamship Hocking, seized by a British prize crew and taken to Halifax, was to determine whether the vessel was enemy- owned, although flying the American flag.

To be exact—the electric light. It 1s none other than Luther Drake, who electrified delegates and business men at a banquet of the Nebraska Electrical Fontenelle Thursday noon Mr, Drake was pursuaded by rare di- plomacy to utter a few incandescent “bon mots,” which he d4id in a manner that would make Willlam Jennings, who is also an electritying speaker, writhe in envy. In fact the “julce” (grape and eloctric) expert never spoke on ‘“‘current” toples to greater offect, than Mr. Drake. “Ho {s aimply Masda,” remarked Gen- oral George 1. Harries, who was re. sponaible for the forth coming {llumi- nating outburst. Without a single short elrcult, and free from all insulation, Orator' Drake's volts swept his audience with deadly effect—although he did not kilowatt.

The bells of the Protestant 12 for a ously and someone seeking the reason for this conjured the theory that it was the be- ginning of Serblan negotiations. The con- jecture soon devoloped into a report, the fact being ignored that the bells were being rung on the occasion of the meet- ing of the synod of the Prussian Evan- gelical church. roro © WTERNATIONAL Fram SEARVER Use The Bee's “"Swapper” columiie LANSING SAYS WHITLOCK WILL RETURN TO BRUSSELS WABHINGTON, Nov. 12—Great Britain sfon for falling to appear In answer 20 & |y ansing announced today that he ex- association at the | churches had started pealing simultane- | company of New York.

GERMANY LIKES WILSON NOTE TO GREAT BRITAIN COLOGNE (IVa London), Nov. 12— What is sald to be an inspired dispatch from Berlin to the Cologne Gazette on the American note to Great Britaln, says: “The energy with which the president, after the settlement of the controversy with Germany, has taken up the settle- ment of the Anglo-American au2stion is acknowledged unreservedly here.
