The President's veto message to the House, In which the bill original ed. follows: "I very much rogret to return this bill without my signature. "In most of the provisions of the bill I should be very glad to concur, but I cannot rid myself of the con viction that the literary test consti tutes a radical change In the policy of the Nation which la not Justified In principle.

Hy the passage of the federal aid roud bill the government of the United States has put Itself In the way to reap great benefits. According to the new Inw, the sum of $85,000,000 of fed eral funds Is made avullable for the construction of country roads. Of this amount 978,000,000 Is to be ex pended for tho construction of rurnl post rouds under co-operative arrange ments with the highway department* of the various stall's und $10,000,000 Is to be used In developing roads and trails within or partly within the na tional forests. Tills law Is proof of the national awakening to the fact that our coun try Is lamentably deficient In well constructed highways. The main Well-Cared-For Highway. lines of travel In the early days were the shores of great waters and the rivers and canuls. The railroad build ing era followed close upon the peri od of the river steambout ami for these and other reasons the hlghwuys of the laud were neglected. One of the most powerful of the agencies now nt work for better road* Is the automobile. The country owes a debt to the motor-driven cur for mak ing Insistent demand for adequate highways over which to travel. The expenditure of these many mil lions of dollar* will benefit the people very grcutty by helping to convey farm products to market and thus to some exti-nt It will make living chea|>er and more comfortable, says Chicago News. Moreover, the country with an abund ance of good roads within lis l>ouiidn rles I* more easily defended when threatened from without. 'The best ri-sult of all, however, will bo the quickening of Intercourse and Intelli gence and the unifying of this great nation, which as yet Is too much given to spruwllug physically and otherwise. KENTUCKY FIRST TO IMPROVE . Q Spent Money for Construction of Roads Over Half Century Ago— Hid Highway Engineer. It Is often sold that the use of state money for the construction of roads I* of quite recent origin. 'Hie New Jer sey state old law of ISUI Is sometimes referred to as the first Instance of such use of state funds In this conn trjr. As n matter of fact, stilt© money /W as spent for such purposes more > than 73 years ago. Kentucky paid out over $2,000,000 for road Improve ments between IR2O and 1840, under the direction of a Mule highway en gineer, who drew n salary of $.".000 n year, n very largo sum fpr those days. The ponds built then were 24 to 30 feet wide between the ditches. The surfaces were const ructed of bro ken stone, and the bottoms were of lnrge stones wedged together to make what road btillders call a telford foun dation. About 1850 business condi tions in the country became bad and this work stopped.

FOR COMFORT OF INVALID Bedside Pedestal One of the Greatest Convenience* That Can Weil Be Devlied. It is Dice to have something by the Hide of a bed upon which a candle and a bos of mutches, a water bottle and tumbler, and possibly a book may be placed, but even If a small table Is used for this purpose It Is generally rather In the way. We give a sketch, therefore, of a useful pedestal that can be easily pre pared with a packing case of the shape Bedside Pedestal. and size indicated, and Inside it can be fitted up with shelves, und slippers and shoes, and unsightly odds und ends can be stored away in, it. The lid of the cuse will not be re quired, und can be cut up for muk- Ing the shelves. The sides of the box are smoothly covered with some pretty Inexpensive- cretonne, the materiul be ing turned over ut the edge und un derneath and fastened on with tacks. The top should be covered with Amer ican cloth, as It can be cleaned with u damp cloth. Hound the sides, at the top, a short frill of cretonne Is fastened on with braid and brass-bend ed nulls, and in front there is a cur tain made of some of the same cre tonne, that can be lifted up when any thing Is required from Inside the ped estal.

ROSEBUSH LAMP POPULAR Latest Boudoir Furnishing Is of a De sign That at Least Has the Merit of Novelty. The latest absurdity In boudoir fur nishing is the rosebush lamp, which is so bizarre and novel thnt orie may pay 40 good dollars for It and be In the very van of the mode—lf one fan cies such things. The base of the lamp Is hand-carved and painted In old Ivory to represent nn earthen flower pot. From this rises the metal standard of green metal with sprouting green leaves and red rosebud*—all cleverly Inter twined with tho central stem or stand ard. Presumably the lamp shade of pink silk represents the full-blown rose at the top of the long stem; but since the "rose" is twice the size 'of the flow erpot below, the Imagination must strain.

Objects Because Chief Executive May Expel Anyone Without Recourse to Appeal.—Not In Accord With Other Nations. Mexico City.—Secretary of State Lansing has sent to Oeneral Carranza, through Charles 11. l'arker, American Charge d'Affairs here, a communica tion In regard to certain provisions which It had been proposed to Include In'the new Mexican constitution. Tha communication calls attention to ar ticles vesting the Executive with pow er to expropriate property without Judicial recourse, and also the article providing that civil commercial com panies cannot own properties ot a greater area than Is necessary to ac complish the purpose for which they are formed, and placing the power to determine what area is necessary In the hands of the Executive. The communication says that If th latter provision were made retroac tive, It might be confiscatory as no provision is made for compensation. Attention In called to the article pro viding that there be no exemption from taxation. If this were given a retroactive effect, says Secretary Lan sing's communication, It would impair contracts of many foreign corporations now operating under agreements pro viding periods of exemption by the federal or state governments. Regarding article 33, dealing with the expulsion of obnoxious foreigners, objection is made because the pro posed article permits the executive to expel anyone, without recourse to ap peal, whose presenco Is deemed inad visable by him. The letter states that this Is not In accord with the usual practice of nations that cause be clearly shown. ' " FIGHTING UNABATED IN MARBHEB NORTH OF RIGA. With German!

Further progress for the Germans along both »ides of the Aa feiver Is reported by Berlin, which claims an advance over a front of about six miles and the capture of Russian fort positions together with 14 officers and 1,714 men and 13 ma chine guns. Petrograd admits the southeast of the river, the Russians have had to fall back a third of a mile, but says the attack* by the Germans on the mitrsh we. e repulsed. Aside from this battle, the fighting In the various other theaters con tinues to be carried out mainly by the artillery and small reconnoltering and raiding parties. In Rumania, the extermely cold weather has virtually put an end to the operations for the moment. Lively fighting has taken place on the famous Dead Man Hill, In the Ver dun region of France, but no details of It have been made public.

Committee Again Defeats Effort to Incorporate Suggestion By > President. Washington.—For the second time slnce.lt began consideration ot rail road legislation to supplement the Adamson law, the Senate Interstate Commerce Committee declined to ap prove a provision suggested by Pres ident Wilson forbidding a strike or lockout pending Investigation of a labor controversy. - The vote was ten to live, with three Democrats, Senators Underwod, Smith, of South Carolina, and Thomp son, voting with the Republicans In the negative. On the first vote 10 days ago, the committee turned down this provis ion seven to three. A further effort may be made to win the committee's approval,) and If this Is unsuccessful, a fight will be made for the provision on the floor of the Senate. Chairman Newlands said the com mittee was still at work on an Inves tigation bill with this feature elimi nated, and was confident that approval would be given a -measure that would prevent obstructions to Interstate commerce without actually forbidding a strike. The action of the committee cane shortly after representatives of the four railroad brotherhoods informed President Wilson that they desired to suggest changes to the bills now pend ing. The President asked that the suggestions be submitted in writing, and promised to give them careful consideration. The brotherhood lead ers declined to make public their pro posals at this time, but It Is under stood they follow the lines Indicated In hearings before the House Com mittee and provide for a permanent Investigating commission composed partly of employers and employes, without any strike prohibiting feature.

BAKER ISSUES STATEMENT Border Militia Question and Bendlng of Fletcher to Mexico Capital Now Hold IntereaVTvVW* and Carranca Are Busy. Washington.—The final act In ' the entrance into Mexico of 12,000 Amer ican soldiers as a result of the Villa massacre of 17 Americans at Colum bus, N. LI., on March 9, 1916, was writ ten with official announcement by the War Department that General Persh ing had been ordered, and actually had started to bring his troops back to the United States, Secretary Baker issued the follow ing announcement: "General Pershing has been ordered to bring his troops cut of Mexico. The movement is to be an Immediate one, and probably Is already under -way. Later advices to the department said that the troops already had begun the evacuation of Colonia Dublan, 110 .miles from the border, where they had been concentrating during the past few weeks. The last American soldier Is expected to rocross the bor der In about a week." No official information is at hand as to whether Villa or Carranza troops will occupy the territory left vacant by the Americans, but the belief is strong here that the bandit, who 1* credited with, at least, 8,000 well-arm ed men who la now, at least, four times as strong as when the American troops went across the border, will make a desperate effort to take the territory, particularly for lta moral effect. The two other phases of the Mexican problem on which Interest centers now, are the disposition of the more than 60,000 militia still on ths border, and the sending of Ambassa dor Fletcher to his post at Mexico City. Officials say no decision has been reached in either of these ques tions, but that both are dependent on the turn of events in Mexico. v BENATORB WORK OVERTIME TO CLEAN UP MUCH WORK. Less Than Thirty Days to Bolve Con- Jested Legislation. Washington.—With less than 30 working days remaining In the Ufa of the Sixty-Fourth Congress, the Demo cratic Steering Committ'ee of the Ben ate decided to hold dally sessions of the Senate from 11 o'clock in the morning until 10 o'clock at night, be ginning Thursday, February 1. Overtime exertions were determined upon as the first move In an effort to solve the congested legislation situa* tlon, the decision being to drive away as hard and fast as possible on es sential appropriations and the revenue bill, and to undertake the big general Administration measures one by one as time permits. Whether any of the Administration bills over which there Is so much dispute could be passed, none of the Democratic leaders would predict. The general understanding is that the railroad labor bills will be consid ered as soon as the India appropria tion bill Is out of the way, provided the Interstate Commerce Committee does not ultimately decide to await action on this matter is he House. In view of the fact that Representative Admason is preparing to rush a sep arate bill on the subject through the House, the Senate committee may decide to wait. In that case, the cor rupt proctlce bill or the mineral land leasing measure may be given a try out. BIG BRITISH CRUIBER MINED OR TORPEDOED.

A gable roof building 10 to 15 feet wide, 6 feet from the floor to the eaves, and 8 to 9 feet to the ridge makes a good pigeon house. A pen Bby 9 feet will accommodate 25 pairs of pigeons, while 40 pairs may be kept in a pen 8 by 13 feet. The necessary floor space to allow per pair varies from 2% to 3 square feet, according to the size of the pen, as a pair* of birds requires less floor space In large than In small pens. From 20 to 75 pairs of pigeons may be kept to advantage in each pen. It costs from $1.25 to $1.75 a pair to construct pigeon houses, Including interior fit tings and a small outside pen or fly way. Fittings should be as simple as pos sible and easy to clean. Two nest boxes should be provided for each pair of pigeons, and there should be some extra nests. The nest boxes are usual ly about 12 Inches square, yet some breeders prefer this width and height Arrangement of Nest Boxes. With a depth of 15 to 18 Inches. Egg or orange crates may be used for nests, but they are difficult to keep clean and less desirable than nests made with one-Inch boards. A good method of construction Is to use lumber 12 Inches wide for the floor of the nests, arrang ing each floor so that It will slide on cleats and can be easily removed and cleaned. The nests are usually built In tiers against the rear wall of the pen, extending from the floor to 7 or 8 feet high, but they may also be placed on the aide walls. All partitions should be solid to the top of the nests, but it is advisable to use wire netting above the nests for ventilation.
