"We want a hard surfaced road, over which troops may be moved easily if necessary. Ve need it for defensive purposes. The states have done all they can do in building interior roads, and it is the duty now of the Federal Government to construct this highway.

Lewis, chief engineer of the Board of Kstimate ami Apportionment, of New York, discussed the financing of road projects. "The use of bonds by a state, county or town,"( he said, "is justified only when and to the extent to which the benefit will be general. The terms of the obligations should be limited to the life of the improvements lor which they are to pay. " James H. Macdonald, who was for 18 years Connecticut State Highway Com missioner, said at the convention today that the states of California, Oregon and Washington lead the Union in the matter of good roads. "The Columbia Highway in Oregon and the roada of the Siskiyou Pass in California," he said, "more than equal the famous roads of Kurope, as well as the famous palisades drive along the Hudson.

DANGER OVER-BERNST0RFF (Continued From First Page.) the United States Government and ac cepted here as conclusive proof that the White Star liner Arabic was tor pedoed without warning, causing the loss of two Americans, Secretary Lansing, in making this an nouncement today, made it clear that no representations or expression of opinion by the American Government had been made in the communication. The viewpoint of the United States, based on the evidence in the Arabic case and its position on the principles involved, were stated tinfSrmally to Count von Bernstorff, the German Am bassador, who communicated later with the German Foreign Office. The outcome-of these two steps ex amination by the German Foreign Of fice evidence and receipt by Berlin of ficials of Ambassador Bernstorff's sug gestion is awaited before the next move in the situation is determined. The general expectation is that sev eral days, possibly two weeks, will elapse before the decision of the Ger man government is made known. No word had been received at the State Department concernlne published reports of the chase of the American liner St. Paul by a German submarine. 4 It was said at the Department that if the St. Paul was attempting to escape after having been warned an attack on her might have been justified. In the absence of details. Department officials were not disposed to comment on the case. WlliSO.V PRAISED IN BERLIN Berlin Editor Says - English Must Give lp Hope or Trouble. BERLIN, via London. Sept. IS. In the German goVernment's explanation of the Hesperian case Germania sees the way made clear "for President Wil son's ultimate purpose regarding the German note concerning justification for the sinking of the Arabic." x The newspaper declares that the British press must give up its hopes of serious differences between Berlin and Washington. It praises President Wil son for having refused to be influenced by British reports of a new menace to German-American relations, which had just been guided into a more peaceful channel, and adds: "The President's cool self-containment is now justified. The British tis sue of lies is at last torn to pieces and if anything remains of the entire ques tion of lesponsibility for the misfor tune it probably will rest immedately, as we suspected, on one of Britain's excellent anchored mines." 150 FRESHIES 'CROWNED' SOPHOMORES, AS MEXICAN ARMY OFITICEKS, fit" IDE PHISOV L.IM3. Peaceful . Steed, Astounded by SrrnuKe SiBht, Cavorts Over Lawnn and Ffocen With Ice Wagon. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Or., Sept. 15. (Special.) With coats inside out, with trousers rolled to their knees, with hands on the shoulders -of the man in front and legs pumping in prison fashion, 150 men students, fresh men, wound through the Eugene streets this afternoon and were officially "crowned" with green caps at a Willamette-street department store. Sophomore dictators, dressed as Mexi can army officers and heavily armed with ancient muskets, bravely led the charge and delivered commands. Ama teur photographers snapped pictures, and crowds lined the pavement as the baby class marched. So strange was the sight and cos tumes that a peaceful steed, the motive power of an ice wagon, snorted, threw up his heels and retreated through a trio of lawns, two fences and finally surrendered to a pair of football men against a barn wall. Other than a lost wheet-and an excited horse, little dam age was done. The ice-wagon chauffeur was a sophomore delivering his wares in an apartment-house. Today's "crowning" traditionally marked the informal opening of the Fall collegiate semester. Editor Suspends Paper for Wedding Trip. Wnshlngton Journal!!

We do know that we want to get off for a week, and as this paper is yours and you are the boss, we are going to ask your in dulgence and omit next week's issue. No, our grandmother isn't dead, nor it isn't a ball game, nor even the Spo kane fair, nor the open bird season which is calling us. The fact of the matter is that we are going to obey the Biblical injunction that advises a man not to live alone."
