Alburjuerque, N. M., Oct. 23..ColonelRoosevelt moved u crowd of 3,000 tocheers and laughter here to-day bybranding Newton I>. Baker, Secretaryof War, as a man "exquisitely unfit forhis job."

"I understand he knits very well,"the Colonel said after asserting thatMr. Raker, as an amiable pacifist, couldprobably have rendered "resprctableservice along other lines." There was

nothing facetious, however, in Mr.Roosevelt's condemnation of the Secre¬

tary of War's recent Jersey City speechin which he advised persons who couldnot understand President Wilson'sMexican policy to read the "Declara-tion of Independence and the GoldenRule.""The man who professes such doc-

trines," the Colonel said with unusualemphasis, "is wholly unfit to May inthe Cabinet, and the President who r%-

tains him is wholly unfit to remain thePresident of the United States."

"NauseooB Hypocrlsy"The Colonel read The Tnbunr.'s

stenographic report of Mr. Baker's

speech, then dropped his manuscriptand said, slowly:"The flnal touch about the Golden

Rule, applied in comparing men who

rape women, murder children and tor-

ture wounded soldiers to the signers of

tho Declaration of Independence andth. singularly humane aoldiers ofWashington, adds an element of nau.ae-

ous hypocrisy to as preposterous andridiculous a slander as ever was cir-

culated about the men of the Revolu-tion."This statement of Mr. Baker, acqui-

esced in by the silence of Mr. Wilson,

shows that Mr. Wilson in his heart be-

lieves that Washington was no better

than Villa or Carranza; that the men

of the Revolution stood on a level with

the miscreant crew who dunng the

last three and a half years II Mexico

have murdcred Americans by the hun-

dreds and Mexicans by the ter.s of

thousands. These men have perpetratedevery Kpec.es of outrage upon women

and children and have turned all

Mexico into a hell of starvntion. disease

and misery; they have done this with

the active or passive assistance of the

American government under the leader-

ship of Mr. Wilson, and his Cabinet of-

ticer now defends them by th. fouleat

slander on the men who made us a na-

tion."Misrepreaent Pacts.

"When men occupy an improper and

unpatriotic position and seck to justifythemselves by precedents from the pastit is almost impossibl. for them to

avold misrepresenting the facts theydesire to quofe in their favor."If President Wilson's behavior toward

Germany, and especially toward Mex¬ico, if his attitudes in both our inter-national and internal uffairs are proper,then Washington, Jackson and Lincolnartcl (aapreperly in upholding and sav-

ing the Cruori and del'ending our posi¬tion against foreign nations by theirreadiness and ability to use foiee.

"Mr. Baker is an amiable pacitlst,who, I do not doubt, could render re-

npectable service along other lines, buthe is exquisitely unfit for his presentposition. He is by no means as astutoas Mr. Wilson, but he is more sincere

and htraightforward.I'nderatands Nothing of War

ALLIES EXPECTAID OF NEUTRALS

Will Welcome Suggestionsto Prevent Future

Wars

London, Oct. 23. The Allies welcomeefTorts by neutrals for a combinntion to

pre-. ent future wars. This was madeplain by Viscount Grey, Secretary forForeign Affairs, in a speech to-day be¬fore the Foreign Press Association.Diplomatic representatives of all theAllied countnes were present.

"I believe the best work neutrals can

do for the moment is to try to preven*n war like this from happening agair..If the nations had been united in suchan agreement and rrompt resolut'.on t.>

insist in 1914 that the dispute must bereferred to a conference or The Hague,that the Balgiaa treatjr must be ob-served, there would have been no war,"he said.

"N'ation.- 'itrhting for 'he.ir existence.with daily increasing pro-peets of 8BB-

iag vietory hrought nearer, still know-ing that if th>*y stop short of vietorythey stop nhort of every thing for which

they are struggling, cannot he expecte.lto apend much time thinking ab<>utwhat migh! happen after vietory ia se-

cured. But the neutrals can do it."I observe that not only President

Wilson, but Mr. Hughes, is ?upportinga league started, not with the object ofinterfering with the bclligerenta m thia

war, but which will do its part in mak¬ing peace sec'.re in the future.

Force Must Re Factor"It is a work of neutral countri"S to

which we should all look with favorand hope. Only, we must bear this inm:n<i: if the rotons kfter the war ar*

able to do somethlng effective by bind-lag themselves with the cummon objectof preserving peace, they must be pre¬pared to und'Ttak. not more than theyare able to uphold by force, and to see,when the time of crisis comes, that itis uphelu by force."The question we must ask them ia

this: 'Will yo,i play up when the tinicomea ?' lt is not merely the sign man-

uai of presidents and rovereigns thatis really to make this worth whi>; itmust alsc have behind it pariiament-*and national sentimer.t'."Sappoaa the conditions of 1914 oc-

cur BgBln and there is tuch a leaguein axisteaee. everything arill Jepend on

whether national tentiment behind itIa so pereaeeted by the leaaeaa of thiswar as to jompel ;ach nation, as a mat-tei af dtal lateteeti to keep peaceother than by force."

Alliea Won't Discuss Peace

The Foreign Secretary made i* plainthat the Allies were not prepared todiscuss peace terms, and gave no indi-cation of what their terms might be.

"I would like to talk not, indeed,atout actual conditions of peace," Greysaid, "which can only be stated andformulated by the Ailies together, andnot by any one of them separatelv, butabout the general obiects which theAllies must secure in this war. And todo that, I would ask you to recall thatwe must never forget how the war

came about. If we are to approachpeace in a proper spirit it can only be byrecollecting and recalling, and never

for a moment forgetting, what was thereal cause of the war."You cannot go back to it too often;

it affeets the conditions of peace. Ger-manv talks of peace; her statesmentalk of peace to-day. They say: 'Ger-many must have g-uarantees against be-ing (ittacked again.'

"If this war had been forced uponGermanv that would be a logical state-mer.t. lt is preclsely because it was

not forced upon Germanv, but was

forced by Germany upon Europe, thatit is the Allies who must have guaran-tees for future peace."
