" ?gton this morning gar? an .^eileat imitation o t London when that city is awaiting a Zeppelin in vasion. For over an hour many persons could be s*en standing out In the middle of the street, leaning out of windows and walking along the sidewalks, gazing at the heavens through pieces of smoked glaet. The attraction, however, was not as axcltlng sis tbe kind they have in London. It was merely an eclipse of the sun, but it se~ms that there uasn't anyone who was going to let! the opportunity pass without catch ing a glimpse "of the shadow upon the sun's surface. It was plainly visible between ten I and eleven o'clock. Shortly before eleven, almost half the eun was blot- j ted out from view.

J.? -a careful Poll of tbe house member* from ?North Carolina today developed the fact that only three members from the fc tat?? Representatives Small. Pou and Britt ? have made up their minds to support the President's preparedness program as haa beea outlined by the White House aad war and nary departments. Mr. Po?, tbe most ardent supporter of Ue administration, may not vote for the continental army plan, though lie has not definitely decided on bis detail. He prefers, howevor, that tho national guard be increased. Major Siedman. Mr. Doughton. and many of the others favor "reae onable prepar dness," whaiever that means. But they will not aupport the continental army proposition. Mr. Doughton wae convinced over nl* year ago by the statements of Pre*-' Went Wilson and Secretary of the *; Navy Daniels that we are already sufficiently prepared to defend our coasts again* t an invading foe. Mr. Doughton will not now support the billion dollar five-year program whleh Congr ?a? has been asked to adopt "The statements made by the President a?d Secretary Daniels leaa ^ than 18 months ago," said Mr. Doughton. "convinced me that wo *er. prepared from a military stand po nt fr?m any danger that might reasonably be expected. Of course it is not possible to propare against all possible danger. If we did we would have to have an army an4 navy as arge a* tbat of the entire worm. However, I would bo willing to vote for a reasonable increase that is, a policy that would not cetsfc an unreasonable tax levy on the* people. "But 1 will not support the addi tional billion dollar flve-yoir pro gram. I am also opposed to tun ing this great republic of ours into an armed military camp; and bellev/? if such a course is ever adopted It will lead to the speedy downfall of our repub'.ic, as has been the casO with all other republics who* follow ed the policy."
