Central Park Five Lands
Championship in Fast Game
The Central Park team took the
community center championship, by
winning from Miller Park in a sen
sational game last night at Miller
Park.
Four extra periods of five minutes
each were played before Central could
get the edge. Playing was unusually
rough and featured by close guarding,
and sensational goal shooting.
Miller Parks' superior weight was
not big enough handicap for game
ness of the lighter Central Park
bunch and the regular time ended
8-8. The shooting of Drought for
Miller Park featured the play during
the extra- periods. ,

U. S. AND CANADA
IN DRAFT TREATY
Complete Arrangements for
Impressing Citizens of Both
Countries Into Military
Service.
(By Amwwlated Pre.)
Washington, Feb. 19. Treaties be-1
twecn the United States and Great I
Britain and the United States and j
Canada to govern the application of I
the army draft to citizens of each i
country residing' in the other, were I
sent to the senate today by Secretary j
Lansing. They were signed by Mr.
causing ana tan Keacimg, wno ai
fixed his signature to the documents
as his first official act in the office of
British high commissioner and spe
cial ambassador to the United States.
Under the treaties the United
States may apply the draft law to
British subjects and Canadians living
in this country between the ages of
20 and 45 years, the British draft
limits, while Great Britain and
Canada may draft resident citizens of
the United States from 21 to 31
years old.
Similar conventions are now being
negotiated by the State department
with other cobelligcrent nations.
By the enforcement of the American-British
treaty it is expected more
than 250,000 men in this country will
be made liable to service while at
least 60,000 will be affected by the
American-Canadian treaty.
Estimates place the number of draft
age Americans in England at approxi
mately 18,000 and in Canada at about
36,000.
GOVERNMENT MEN
WILL AID WARDEN
CHASE POACHERS
George Rosters, Nebraska state
hunters who may find the "call of the
hunters ho may find the "call of the
wild" when the ducks begin to fly
this spring, too tempting to overlook.
The game warden is to have four
government men to assist him, in ad
dition to his force of state deputies,
this spring.
Many shooters do not know that
the Nebraska state law as well as the
federal law prohibit shooting in the
spring. For this reason in the spring
the more venturesome shooters are
prone to "take a chance" on the fed
eral inpectors.
But this year taking a chance is
likely to prove fatal with the state
force reinforced by the four govern
ment men.

SENATOR JOHNSON SAYS
GOVERNMENT MUST KEEP
CONTROL OF RAILROADS
Attacks Administration Bill In Speech Before Senate;
Protests Rate of Proposed Compensation; Defends
Honest Criticism of Military Affairs
and Denounces Shipyard Scandal.
Washington, Feb. 19. Permanent government ownership
of railroads rather than government control for the period of
the war was advocated by Senator Hiram W. Johnson of Cali
fornia today in a speech opposing the senate draft of the
administration's railroad bilj. .
A W4Uinit4a11 W TT aiMWAA
"I would now take the inevitable next
step in government control of our
railroads," Senator Johnsor. declared,
"and do whatever might be essential
to make government control perma
nent government ownership, or at
least, have the way open so that im
mediately upon the termination of
the war we might follow to its logical
conclusion what already we have
partly done."
The California senator protested
vigorously at the proposed rate of
compensation to be paid the railroads
under the provisions of the bill and
also opposed the senate's plan to turn
the roads back to private management
18 months after he conclusion of
peace.
Senator Johnson digressed from his
discussion of railroad legislation to
express his approval of President Wil
son's recent stand against secret di
plomacy and the president's policy of
addressing congress from time to
time "in the open forum of the world."
Defends Honest Criticism.
"I aver.t to this subject,' 'the senator
said, "because I deprecate the un
democratic and un-American suppres
sion and repression which character
ized the first months of our entrance
into the war and which yet obtains
in some ciroles.
"The idea last year seemed preva
lent, and to find sanction with vari
ous individuals and in a large part of
the press, that absolute silence and
submission without complaints to any
deficiency or injustice were the only
measure of loyalty.
"If any individual, with highest mo
tive, sought to lay bare a wrong, he
was charged with lending bid and
comfort to the enemy.
"I will not subscribe to any doctrine
that either in peace or war legitimate
and conscientious suggestion or hon
est criticism may not be indulged.
People Own Government.
"This government yet belongs to
all its people, and they are entitled to
know not only how, diplomatically,
the government deals with the nations
of the earth, but to know as well that
which concerns the internal policies
which yet control the republic situ
ated within the boundaries of the
United States; and beyond this they
are entitled to know what intimately
concerns their property and their
lives.
"Disloyalty and treason cannot
thrive in the light. Neither can in
competence, that strong ally to fail
ure. Official suppression and con
cealment are as vicious as the secret
diplomacy and private bargaining
which President Wilson so justly con
demns. "The pretense that the people can
not be told the truth is the artifice of
incompetent men who are afraid to
face the test of public scrutiny.
"No man, of course, is entitled un
justly to criticise or in unfavorable
license of expression.
"The real test of criticism is
whether it is or just or unjust.
"If conscientiously unjust it should
subject him who utters it to the con
tempt of all.
"If just, it vindicates itself."

tee, of which he is a member, and its
investigation of the shipping situation.
Referring to the Hog Island ship
yard inquiry he asserted:
"In one of the contracts entered
into by the government that with th:
American International company a
state of affairs beggaring description
has developed.
"The evidence demonstrates a wild
saturnalia of extravagance, a brilliant
phantasmagoria of patriotic pretense.
And the pity and shame of it are, that
those who, with a cheerful and almost
studied disregard for every principle
of economy, are wasting the money oi
the taxpayers are some of the great
captains of industry of the nation.
"I have read recently the utter
ances of some of those responsible
for those conditions and, singularly
enough, they express, as great pa
triots, their sorrow that such dis
closures should be made public, and
as lugubriously they shake their
heads, they exclaim that publicity of
the delinquencies is giving aid and
comfort to the enemy."
Railroads Broke Down.
In support of his declaration for
government ownership Senator John
son said that the railroads had broken
down under the stress of the last
fe,w months; that if the country is to
have efficient national transportation
the roads must be nationalized and op
erated by one directing head; that the
American people have "paid the price
of private ownership" and that "de
spite barriers or obstacles the nation
is marching straight to the goal of
public ownership and the people at
last will come into their own."
Senator Johnson stated that he is in
full accord with Senator A. B. Cum
mins of Iowa, who, in a recent
speech, said that the proposed com
pensation to be given the railroads is
unfair and unjust. He argued that
the maximum compensation should
not be paid the roads at a time when

Taxpayers to Pay.
"What this proposed rate means,"
added Senator Johnson, "is that the
interest on the outstanding bonds of
the railroads will be paid in accord
ance with the interest rates now fixed;
it means, in addition, that upon the
stock of the railroads of the country
will be paid by the government of the
United States something in excess of
8 per cent per annum; it means that
this percentage in excess of 8 per cent
per annum is paid upon all the stock
of all the railroads; it means that this
percentage (and I am speaking only
of the minimum) shall be paid by the
people of the United States not only
upon the" legitimate issues of the
stock of railroad corporations, but
upon every issue of. stock that has
been illegitimately issued watered
stock estimated at almost 50 per cent
of the total stock of these corpora
tions stock representing nothing but
the greed and the avarice ot railroad
magnates."

Fight Over Woman's Clothes

of a dispute, followed by gun play
and fistic encounter, according to evi
dence in the trial of Frank Mell and
Tony Dadonia, Saturday afternoon, in
the former's home, 2013 Pierce
sti-eer.
Mell testified that Dadonia had
stolen his wife from him, and then
had returned for her clothes. This
was too much, he said, and they
"mixed."
Dadonia received a black eye, and
a razor- cut on the chin. Mell de
clared he was shot through the hand,
but no revolver could be found on
the pi?mises by the police. Both
were dischcrged.

"was none of Brady's business during
the questioning of Peters."
