As a consequence the architect made cer tain changes that time has proved were not wise changes.

MAP E ISSUE : UP AT CAPITOL Washington, April 12 On the eve of determining its final attitude on the submarine issue, the question facing the administration today was seemingly "How far cSn we go with th'e'evidence in handf"'n "-' 'President Wilson 'and his cabinet are convinced that a German sub marine attacked' the British steamer 8ussex without warning while Amer icans 'were' aboard and that the Teu ton undersea boats have embarked on a new reign of terror in' which they disregard the safety and rights of neutrals with amazing reckless ness. V l 'M- , ,trA But conclusive proof of this may be lacking. A German note disclaiming respon sibility for the Sussex disaster is ex pected at the state department to day. The administration may show its evidence to Germany, suggesting that discrepancies between this na tion's facts and. the kaiser's conten tions may be due to submarine com manders' erroneous reports, or to other reasons. This may show Germany that It Is impossible for her to keep up the pre sent submarine campaign without continually Jeopardizing Americans. Then the United States, It is fore casted, may ask Germany to take steps which would render further to cover the case. NEARLY MILLION SPENT FOR ARMY MOTOR TRUCKS Washington, April 12.

The securing of testimony has consumed four years. Branch hear ings have been held in years past In Texas, Utah and other states and transcripts of the testimony are now In Sanford's hands. When the Hyde expose came to light some time ago, charged Jointly with him were "Carpenter" and "Jones." No such men have ever (been located. Thus far they have been found to be mere names signed to homestead entries. Science has been called in to prove them fictitious. Theodore Kytka, handwriting expert, after weeks of study of the handwriting of Hyde, declares that the names "Carpenter" and "Jones" were written by the same hand.
