It occur to u to wonder how Count Luxburg, the German charge d 'affair at Buenoa A I ret, la going to Ct back to Germany. Luxburg haa to go, because he called the Argentina secretary or state an asa and auggeated that hia government dispose of Argentine shipping fey the culture rule of , "apurlos rersenkt" leaving no trace. But how can he go? Argentine doesn't feel like lend I tag him a warship. He will presum ' ably have to take passage on a liner or freighter. The allies will honor his passport and make no serious trouble for him. In pursuance ot the diplomatic courtesy which stl'I pre- Talls outside of Germany. But that doesn't guarantee him a safe pass age. He haa to ran the gauntlet of the err U-boata which have been sink tag Argentine merchantmen, and to whose tender mercies he wished to consign the rest of the Argentine ahlpplng. Those U-boats sink every thing at sight, without reading p&s- aenger lists. It must ba a cheerful thought to Luxburg," aa ha fares homeward dangling his diplomatic tin can be hind him, that ha himself may be "spurlos rersenkt.

This decision Is not a little due td the fact that this cantonment, the ' first to reach completion, has been the lowest In cost of construction, Antl Congressman 'Albert Johnson, representing that district at Wash ington, is the man who brought this about Before the project was started. nls constituents subscribed $2,000, 000 to buy the land, which they have presented to the government. Dur ing the building Representative Johnson has looked after details at the headquarters In Washington, and helped very materially In ex pediting the shipment of materials and labor. He claims that the men who will be sent to American Lake will find - themselves In the finest climate In the country, and sur rounded by loyal citizens anxious to minister to their comforts.
