Baker, former mayor of Cleve land, has been selected by Presi dent Wilson for secretary of war. ine selection cr Mr. isafcer is ucderstood to have been discussed by President Wilson with Oolcnel House today. Wben rresident wuion was making up his cabinet in 1018 he offered the place of secretary of interior to Mr Baker twice. Mr Baker was then mayor of Cleve land and declined for that reason The president and Mr. Baker have been close friends for some time and have corresponded fre quently Mr. Bakei is taid by his friends ta be in close sympathy wil h the president's polioies and is knDwn to have had tbe support of some members of the oabineb for the war face. Mr. Baker ie 44 years old. He was born in Martiusl nrg, W Va., and at the age of 25 was appoint ed private secretary to Postmaster General Wilson in Pzesident Cleveland' oabinst In 1897 he began the practice of law at Mar- tinsburg.

Pope Benedict has : again raised his voice for peace. In a special leiter, written for the Lenten sea son, the Pontiff says he caunot sit silent, indifferent to the ter rible conflict which is rendering Europe. He recalls al that he has done to induce the contending nations to lay down their arms, virtually throwing himself be twee tbe belligerents and conjur ing them in the name of the Al mighty, to dasiit in their plan of mutual destruction. The pontiff again sets forth the proposal whioh he made seme months ago, as follows: 'Eaoh belligerent should dear ly state his desires, but should be ready to make necessary sacrifices of pride and particular interests thia ending the monstrous con flict in accordance with jastfoe and re Mtab'ishing peaoe, advan tageous to neithei side but pre fit able to all snd therefore a juit and lasting peace. 4'This paternal vaice," contin ues th9 Pope, "was not heard. Thus the war continues with all its honos. I rejoice that our cry for peace has had a profound echo in the hearts of the belligerent people, indeed all the people of the whole world, and has aroused a deep desire to the sangui nary oonfiict soon to cease. "I must, therefore, once more, rais) my voice s gainst this war whioh appears ar the suicide of civilised Europe." The second part of the letter deals with prayers, penance and alius in the neutral countries, the alms to he devoted especially to the relief of the ' pitiful children of those dead in this horrible war.''
