This is a big countr/, grow

soon to be built across the Hud
Bon River? at New York City
will have one single span 3,000
feet long.
Four steel ffM??t e<*CR twelve
feet in circuwference, will hold
? weight of eight hundred mil

Twenty-one years ago the
bridge was planned big enough
for forty million human beings
? year. Now, to last until 1940,
it must have a capacity of two
hundred millions, withoit count
ing a hundred millions using the
tunnels now under the river.
One deck of the bridge will
carry twelve railroad tracks.
Above it, there will be an auto
mobile road, planned to accom
modate twenty - five million
vehicles a year.
Five times as big as the first
Brooklyn bridge, with ten times
the steel tonnage of the gigantic
bridge at Quebec, this new en?

"American marines enter
Vladivostok." They find the
Russian port plunged in dark
ness, ravaged by the "White
Army" that seeks to bring
back the czars. Will somebody
kindly tell what American ma
rines are doing in Vladivostok?
What business have we there?
Wise gentlemen in Washing

that they can't collect from
Lenin and Trotzky the millions

lent to the Czar.
Why "American marines in
Vladivostok?"
It will be said our marines
must protect our consulate. If
We refuse to do business with a
nation, why have a consulate?
Better take the consul aboard a
?hip, leaving White Guards, Red
Guards, Japanese and interested
European nations to fight it out.
The Earl of Derby, with the
heavy, "handsome" face of a

Therefore he is typically unfit for
the work that took all the power

American prohibition agenta
"blundered' when they seized the
Canadian schooner Emerald with
a liquor cargo off the New Jersey
coast?an act for which thia Gov
ernment must now express "re
gret'* to the British G>vemment,
it was disclosed officially at the
Treasury Department today.
For the first time since the dry
era began, the State Department
will be called upon to apologize to
a foreign government for over
zealous enforcement of United
States liquor laws.
Report Being Made.
Legal authorities of the Treasury
Department today began prepara
tions of the report on the Emerald
case to be submitted to Secretary of
State Hughes. The report will state
that the Emerald did not establish
contact with the Jersey coast and
that members of the crew did not
land.
Counsel for Prohibition Commis
sioner Haynes said the opinion ex
isted among enforcement officials
that the Kmerald was planning to
land liquor in th? United States, but
there waa no proof that smuggling
had taken place.
Breach of Agreement.
The official inquiry today estab
lished to the satisfaction of Secre
tary of the Treasurer M? lion that
when the dry navy chaser Hahn
ventured eight miles off shore,
trained her guns upon the liquor
laden Emerald, and brought her
Into the port of New York, Ameri
can officers committed a serious
breach of International comity and
agreement.
The British government's protest,
the first of Its kind lodged with
the ?tate Department, challenging
the right of this Government to
seise the British boat, Is now held
by the Treasury Department to
have been well taken.
The British embassy will receive
a response to its protest very
promptly, because there now is no
question a? to the facts or circum
stances, surrounding the seizure.
These were made very explicit to
day in a special report received by
the customs service of the Treas
ury, from the prohibition officials
who directed the operations of the
dry cruiser Hahn.
To Make Restitution
The State Department will lit
called upon to make restitution
to the owners of the Canadian
schooner. At the Department of
Justice today, It was declared that
District Attorney Hayward, at New
York, will take Immediate steps to
restore to the Canadian ship own
ers, the 1,000 cases of whiskey
which was aboard the Emerald, at
the time she was towed into the
port, and further steps will be
taken In order to compensate the
owners against other losses sus
tained.
In a report of the "Incident" to
Secretary Mellon, prohibition offi
cials lay stress upon the "moral
obligation" which dry officers had
In seizing the Emerald. The frank
statement Is made, however, that
the dry navy boat Hahn violated
Secretary Mellon'? Instructions and
ran counter to President Hardlng's
warning to dry officials that the
dry navy boats should not venture
beyond the three-mile limit for pur
pose of seizure, unless foreign ves
sels were shown conclusively to
have established communication
with shore "hy means of their own
boats or rmmt." Those In s true
Uons are (o be observed rigidly.

weather forecast, In which he de
clares Indications are that the com.

winter of 1921-22.
Dr. Dudley says that as the New

States "It makes a decided differ
ence In the operation during the
winter seasons to the rails, loco
motives, coaches and cars whether
the winds blow the cold waves
from the north or northwest or the
warm air from the south or south

UNITED STATES MARINES

WHY I GO TO CHURCH
By CHARLES J. COLUMBUS, Secretary Merchant?
and Manufacturera Association.
Because I believe that church attendance makes me a
better man. It provides an inspiration to the finer things of
life. The more frequently I go to church the more I act for
tbe honor and glory of God.
Going to church prevents me from fooling myself into the
belief that I am answerable to none but myself. The great
est mistake that any man can make is to imagine himself a
finished product either in material or spiritual things. We
are answerable to God for all of our acts. Going to church
not only make? me realire that but the better fits me to
give an account of my stewardship in th? world to come.

LEEDS, England, Oct. 21.?
David Lloyd George, former pre
mier, was today elected president
of the National Liberal Council and
former Colonial Secretary Winston
Churchill was elected vice-presi
dent. This makes Mr. Lloyd George
leader of the Liberal party.
"It is for the people to decide
whether a political party or the
nation is to come first," declared
former Premier Lloyd George in a
political speech here today, the first
since he retired from the steward
ship of the empire.
Ovation to Kx Premier.
A tremendous ovation was given
to the Welsh " statesman " as he as
cended the platform. Men shouted
themselves hoarse, and the air waa
filled with flying hats and handker
chiefs.
The former premier wa? buoyant,
happy, snd smiling. The air of battle
waa In hla nostrils. Apparently It
la his favorite scent.
"I stand .by the people," said Mr.
Lloyd Oeorge In opening his ad
dress. "I put my record in the
hands of the people.
"The banner of party strife has
been raiaed. I welcome the fight.
But the issue will be decided by the
people In g?rerai election.
"The combination (coalition) which
won victory ln the war haa been
broken up. It was broken because
one party thought it did not get
enough out of it."
The combination the premier re
ferred to was the coalition govern
ment composed originally of Liberals,
Unionists, and Laborites. Eventually
the Laborites retired; then the
Unionista withdrew, bringing about
the resignation of the Lloyd Oeorge
government.
Predicts Disarmament.
The former premier claimed credit
for establishing the League of Na
tions, and predicted general disar
mament soon.
"The treaty of Versailles," con
tinued Lloyd George, "was to become
the charter of liberty of tens of mil
lions of people. Although we have
not rid Europe of the 'Armaments of
Verdun,' the \r**ty is the first step
ln that direction."
It Is assumed that the reference
to Verdun was based upon the
historical fact that it was one of
the greatest battles of the great
war. The Oerman concentration of
artillery In that offensive, was up
to that time, the greatest ever
known.
Mr. Lloyd Oeorge outlined first
his war, then his peace record,
humorously adding:
"They say that I am first rate
tn a row but no good ln peace."
As to the blessings of peace the
former premier said:
"The terms of the peace rid
Central Europe of armaments and
conscription. Other evils will go
the same way. Today the great
army tl>a' Germany once had lies
in the dirt."
Britain's Debt.
The former premier said that the
national debt ia now eight billions
of pounda sterling.
"We have recaptured the money
market of the world," continued
the premier. "British credit la
better today than it ever was be
fore. We are beginning to look
the American dollar in the face
on equal terms again. We are the
only European country that haa
been able to balance Its budget."
"The breaking up of the Coalition
government was a crime against tho
nation." declared the former premier.
"But." he continue, "A. Bonar Law
is still a -?V<jfid of mine." Mr. Law,
a Unionist, is the new premier. >
In speaking of the achievements of
his administration Mr. Lloyd Oeorge
said:
"Earl Balfour's success at Wash
ington (In the Washington confer
ence on limitation of armaments)
saved the nation from armament
competition and crushing taxation.
We are at peace with Ireland. In
stead of getting the fist we now get
the handshake from the IrlaH."
Attacks Tories.
The.former premier charged that
1 hia democracy and progressiven??-*
caused the wealthy Tories to lead
the revolt againat him.
Lloyd Oeorge aald that he had of

Trial of Robinson Closes With
Argument of Prosecution
and Defense.
ANNAPOLIS, Md.. Oct. 21.?The
trial of Midshipman Bruce H. Robin
son, of the first class, charged with
hazing Midshipman William H. Mc
Gregor, of the fourth class, was com
pleted before the court-martial at the I
Naval Academy this morning, and|
the finding of the court will not bei
announced until there is action upon I
it by the reviewing authority.
The only point at issue was the de-|
gr?e of hazing, as Robinson had ad-|
mltted that he caused McOregor to
do certain physical stunts though he
had no authority to do so. He claim
ed, however, that he had nothing to
do with the third infliction, which
was Just previous to the physical col
lapse of the under classman.
Lieut. Comdr. J. A. Murphy. Judge
advocate, urged that the court find
the charge and specification of
"cruel hazing" to be proved. He
claimed that the admitted acts of
Robinson were enough to Justify
It, and that every portion of the
hazing led to the final result.
Lieut. H. D. Clarke, counsel for
Robinson, argued that the only haz
ing done by Robinson was light In Its
nature, and could not have had the
effect of exhausting McOregor and
making it necessary for him to go to
the hospital.
The only Important witness for
the prosecution was Midshipman
Edwin R. Ponvert, of Brooklyn.
His testimony brought in the
names of several upper classmen
who had not been mentioned In the
proceedings previously.
Ponvert told a story of the inci
dents In Rohinson's room which up
held In most essentials what Mc
Gregor had said. He placed the
length of time during which the
various exercises were required as
longer than did McOregor.
Judg? Advocate .T. A. Murphy
called Midshipmen Nevett Steele. of
Philadelphia, and Calvin H. Mann,
of Colorado, who had been men
tioned by Ponvert as present dur
ing the hazing and asked them If
they wore there. They both de
clined to answer on the ground
that such answers might tend to
Incriminate themselves.

W. Hall, wealthy rector of the

Church of St. John the Evange
list, and his beautiful choir
leader, Mrs. James Mills, may be
asked of the Somerset county
grand jury Monday, it was lean.'d

there is authoritative ground for

Another Woman In Case.
Another woman has been brought
Into the case. So far her identity
ha? not been revealed, but it is de
olared that she has made affidavit
to Prosecuting Attorney B?*eki-aan
that ahe was an eyewitness of the
murder and can Identify the persons
who committed It. Thi* woman, it It
understood, has not been publicly
mentioned in connection with the
crime up to the present time.
There was general expectancy to
day that two arrests would be made
at once?a man and woman. From
a reliable souce it was leaned that
detectives have concentrated thtlr
efforts toward piling up evidence
against a woman. Her indictment
was expected to follow the appear
ance before the grand Jury of the
new woman witness, who ?Iain-is to
have witnessed the murder from a
clump of shrubbery where she was
hidden.
Saw Attack, She Says.
This woman is sail to have seen
Dr. Hall and Mrs. Mills approached
and attacked by a man and woman.
She Is alleged to have Identified the
attackers and given their namea to
the county authorities. While ad
mitting that she he ird and saw shot?

Nor is it known If the witness saw
the killer snatch ten or a dozen of
Dr. Hall's love letters from the pock
et of Mrs. Mills' scarf, tear some
of them to pieces and then ??catter
them between the two bodies.
The woman who gives the Infor
mation la said to be a member of a
good family in New Brunswick. She

is highly respected. Why she was

Further efforts were made today
to find the old fashioned, hign body
automobile in which the bodies are
said to have been borne here. This
car figures in the suppoaltlon that
the murder was committed in a barn
on a farm adjacent to the Phillips
farm.
