lie also reports increased activity
anions the heavier-than-air services,
and says that four German aeroplanes
were brought to earth within three
days. The officer's account says:
"The improvement in the weather
since the last report resulted in an
increase in the activity of both our
own and the enemy's air service. Ad
vantage in the exchangee has been
with us. In the Ypres district four
hostile aeroplanes have been brought
down in the last three days, two by us
xnd two by the French. Yesterday, one
of our airmen drove off three hostile
aeroplanes, completing substantially
the reconnaissance on which he was
engaged.
Trench DuMfcfd by Mine.
"Ejarly on April 15 the enemy shelled
our trenches near St. Elol heavily and
exploded a mine which injured, some of
our paraphets. No attacks fololwed
and damage was promptly repaired.
."On April 16 the enemy exploded
three mints in the La Basse district,
but they were quite harmless.
"On the evening of April 17 we ex
ploded a mine under Hill No Point on
the Ypres-Comines Railway, to the
west of Zwartelene. This immediately
was followed by an attack which
gained possession of the whole of the
enemy's trenches on the hill. The ene
my suffered heavily from ".io explo

This attack was pressed
home and stiff hand-to-hand fighting
ensued. Our infantry, fighting with
Treat gallantry and determination and
well supported by artillery, drove off
the enemy with complete success. Our
losses were heavy, but the Germans
suffered still more severely.
"Throughout the 17th the enemy re
peatedly renewed his attack, making
desperate efforts to regain his posi

At one time they succeeded in gaining
a footing on the southern slopes of the
hill, but they were promptly driven
hack again.
"This morning the enemy's attacks
ceased, but they continued to bombard
the hill.

"In the later fighting two more of

ing a total of four officers and 45
men.
"The statement in a recent German
communication that we are using as
phyxiating gas in the Ypres district is
false. It doubtless was made to Justify
the use of these guns, which had been
freely employed by the enemy in their
attacks on Hill No Point. Germany
signed a clause in The Hague elim

VENICE, via London. April 19. The
discussion aroused by the memorandum
recently presented by the German Am
bassador. Count von Bernstorff. to the
State Department at Washington re
specting American neutrality is being
followed with the keenest interest in
Austria-Hungary. The tone of the press
generally is hostile to the United
states. The Vienna Kremdenblatt says:
"It will be difficult to answer such
h justifiable remonstrance as that of
Germany, nor does anybody expect an
Kctual reply, but only what the United
states has heretofore answered Ger

tA compilation of revenues received
for grain hauling and of costs incident
to that branch of the railroad business
w-s presented hy C. W. Hillman, ex
pert cost accountant, wMo appeared as
one of the witnesses for the Western
state commissions. On the cost of
handling grain and grain products
from a specified point Mr. Hillman
said :
"My figures show that the cost of
handling a car of wheat into Chicago
from Sioux City, la., la $29.41, from
Council Bluffs $26.53, from South Oma
ha J-6.S4. On other grain figures are
$28.44. $25.81 and $26.33. respectively.
On grain products' the costs would be
$25.16. $23.53 and $23.91. The haul for
the average given is 399 miles, from
Sioux City it is 52 miles. Council
Bluffs 470 and South Omaha 478 miles.
"The average earnings per car, as
shown by the way bills covering the
movement of 33 cars of wheat from 25
typical stations in Minnesota. Nebraska
and South Dakota, were $108.29 for an
average haul of 406 miles. On other
grains 947 cars with an average haul
of 444 miles showed average car earn
ings of $116.13 and 546 cars of grain
products, traveling an average distance
of 438 miles, yielded an average reve
nue per car of $42.76."
The witness was questioned on his
method of calculating by M. O. Lorenz,
statistician for the Interstate Com

that only main line traffic had entered
into the computations.

Reduction From 20 Cents Is Arg aed Be.
fore Railroad Commission by
Tnalatln Association.
A 5-cent fare to Garden Home, on the
Oregon Electric Railway, was pleaded
by 11 witnesses before the State Rail
road Commission yesterday. The hear
ing was brought on complaint of the
Tualatin Valley Transportation Associa
tion in an attempt to reduce thti cash
fare from 20 cents to 5 cents. ,
At the conclusion of yesterday's hear
ing the Commissioin adjourned the case
until May 3, when the railroad com
pany's side of the case will be taken up.
Yesterday's witnesses, who for the most
part were residents of Garden Home
and nearby stations, were examined by
R. R. Giltner and cross-examined by
C. H. Carey for the Oregon Electric
Company.
The valuation of the entire Oregon
Electric system is placed at $11,329,642
in a report prepared by E. W. Moreland,
assistant engineer for the Railroad
Commission. This amount is approxi
mately 87 per cent of the railroad com
pany's own estimate of its worth. Fig
ures submitted by the company placed
the physical valuation at $13,404,723.
The complaint originally was tiled on
December 20. 1913, and the first hear
ing was in March, 1914, when the com
pany's estimates of original and repro
duction cost of the piant and state
ments of operating expenses and reve
nues were submitted.
The crux of the complaint is said to
rest on the existence of a 15-cent fare
between Capitol Hill and Garden Home.
a distance of three miles. Under the
company's city franchise the fare to
Capitol Hill cannot be more than 5
cents, for that station is in the city
limits.
Witnesses examined yesterday were

HIGHWAY TRAVEL GROWING
Autos Using Columbia Koutc Daily
Estimated at 2300.
Despite the fact that not a foot of
paving yet has been laid on the Co
lumbia Iliver Highway, the road al
ready is attracting an increasing
amount of travel each week as the mo
torists are driving their machines
farther afield on pleasure trips. A
representative of the new Chamber of
Commerce visited the road to find that
between the hours of 1 and 3 on Sunday
500 machines by actual count passed a
given point.
If this average of 250 machines were
maintained for a 10-hour day an aggre
gate of 250d autos would travel the
road, although the regular Summer sea
son with good roads is not yet here. It
is likely that an estimate of 5000 ma
chines daily would not be too high for
the Summer season after the great
scenic highway is hard-surfaced.

we should go to war upon each side,
there will be a divided America an
abominable libel of ignorance; America
is not all of it vocal just now. It is
vocal in spots. But I, tor one, have a
complete and abiding faith in that
great silent body of Americans who
are not standing up and shouting and
expressing their opinions just now, but
are waiting to find out and support the
duty of America to America.
"1 am just as sure of their solidity
and of their loyalty and of their
unanimity, if we act justly, as I am
that the history of this country has
at every crisis and turning point illus
trated this great lesson.
. Xatloa Free In Every Direction.
"We are the mediating nation of the
world. X do not mean that we under
take not to mind, our own business and
to mediate where other people are quar
reling. I mean the word In a broader
sense. We are compounded of the na
tions of the world. We mediate their
blood, we mediate their traditions; we
mediate their sentiments, their tastes,
their passions; we are ourselves com
pounded of those things. We are there
fore able to understand all nations; we
are able to understand them in the
compound, not separately as partisans,
but unitedly as knowing and compre
hending and embodying them all. It is
in that sense that I mean that America
is a mediating nation. The opinion of
America, the action of America, is
ready to turn and free to turn in any
directions
"Did you ever reflect upon how al
most all other nations, almost every
other nation, has through long centu
ries been headed In one direction? That
is not true of the United States. The
United States has no racial momentum.
It has no history back of it which
makes it run all its energies and all
its ambitions in one particular direc
tion: and America is particularly free
in this, that she has' no hampering am
bitions as a world power.
Sense of Trust Retained.
"If we have been obliged by cir
cumstances, or have considered our
selves obliged by circumstances, in the
past to take territory which we other
wise would not have thought of taking.
I believe I am right in saying that we
have considered it our duty to admin
ister that territory, not for ourselves
but for the people living in it, and to
put this burden upon our consciences,
not to think that this thing is ours for
our use, but to regard ourselves as
trustees of the great business for those
to whom it does really belong, trustees,
ready to hand over the cosmique trust
at any time when the business seems
to make that possible and feasible.
That is what I mean by saying we
have no hampering ambitions. We do
not want anything that does not be
long to us. isn't ar nation in that posi
tion free to serve other nations, and
isn't a nation like that ready to form
omc part or tne assessing opinion oi
the world?
Task la Greater Than Fighting.
"My interest in the neutrality of
the United States is not the petty de
sire to keep out of trouble. I have
never looked for it, but I have always
found it. 1 don't want to walk around
trouble. If any man wants a scrap
that is an interesting scrap and worth
while, I am his man. I warn him that
he is not going to draw me into the
scrap for his advertisement, but if he
is looking for trouble that is the trou
ble of men in general and 1 can help a
little, why then I am in for it. But
I am interested in neutrality because
there is something so much greater
to do than fight, because there is
something, there is a distinction, wait
ing for this Nation that no nation has
ever yet got.
"That is the distinction of self-control
and self-mastery. Whom do you
admire most among your friends the
irritable man, the man out of whom
you can get a 'rise' without trying, the
man who will fight at the drop of the
hat. whether he knows what the hat. is
dropped for or not?
Srir-Controlled Man Most to Be Feared.
"Don't you admire -and don't you fear
if you have to contest with him. The
self-mastered man who watches you
with calm eyes and comes in only
when you have carried the thing so far
that you must be disposed f that is
the man you respect. That Is the man
who you know has at bottom a much
more fundamental and terrible cour
age than the irritable fighting man.
"Now. I covet for America this splen
did courage of reserve moral force,
and I wanted to point out to you gen
tlemen simply this:
"There is what is called news
from Turtle Bay, that turns out
to be falsehood, at any rate in
what it is said to signify, and which,
if you could get the Nation to believe
it true, might disturb our equilibrium
and our self-possession. We ought 'not
to deal in stuff of that kind. We ought
not to permit things of that sort to
use up the electrical energy of the
wires, because its energy is malign;
its energy is not of the truth; its en
ergy is of mischief. It is possible, to
sift truth. .'
World Should Know Truth.
"I have known some things to go
out on the wires as true when there
was only one man or one group of
men who could have told the origina
tors of the report whether it was true
or not, and they were not asked wheth
er it was trile or not, for fear it might
not, be true. That sort of report ought
not to go out over tho wires.
"There is generally, if not always,
somebody who knows whether that
thing is so or not, and in these days,
above all other days, we ought to take
particular pains to resort to the one
small group of men or to the one man,
if there be but one, who knows whether
those things are true or not. The world
ought to know the truth, but the world
ought not. at this period of unstable
equilibrium, to be disturbed by rumor,
(Might not to be disturbed by imagina
tive combinations of circumstances or
rather by circumstances stated in com
bination which do not belong in -com
bination. For we are holding, not L
but you and gentlemen engaged like
you, the balances in your hands. This
unstable equilibrium rests upon scales
that are in your hands.
"For the food of opinion, as I began
by saying, is the news of today. I
have known many a man go off' at a
tangent on information that was not
reliable. Indeed, that describes the
majority of men. The world is held
stable by the man who waits for the
next day to find out whether the re
port is true or not.
Mere Partlaaaahlp Decried.
"We cannot afford, therefore, to let
the rumors from irresponsible persons
and origins get into the atmosphere of
the United States. We are trustees for
what I venture to say is the greatest
heritage that any nation ever had, the
love of justice and righteousness and
human liberty. For, fundamentally,
those are the things to which America
is addicted and to which she is de
voted. There are groups of selfish men
in the United States, there are coteries
where sinister things are purposed, but
the great heart of the American peo
ple is just as sound and true as it ever
was. And it is a single heart; it is the
heart of America. It is not a heart
made up of sections selected out of
other countries.
"So that what I try to Vemlnd my
self of every day when I am almost
overcome by perplexities, what I try
to remember is what the people at home
are thinking about. I try out myself
in the place of the man who does not
know all the things that I know and
ask myself what he would like the pol
icy of this country to be. Not the talk
ative fflwi. not the partisan man, no:
the man that remembers first that he
is a Republican or Democrat, or that
his parents were German or English
but who remembers first that the whole
destiny of modern affairs centers large,
ly upon his being an American first
of all If I permitted myself to be a
partisan in this present struggle, I
would be unworthy to represent you.
If I permitted myself to forget the peo
ple who are not partisans. I would be
unworthy to represent you. 1 am not
saying timt I am worthy to represent
you. but I do claim this degree of wor
