D. 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. He 'ater moved to Oleve
and where he became o ty solici
tor in 1002. He held this office
for 10 years until his election as
mayor, in 1V14 be was re eleoted
mayor for a two year term. j
Mr. Baker nas received degrees
at Johns Hopkins aud Washing

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.''
