United States consul-general In Winnipeg, has been granted a rnonth's leave of absence and will return to his home in Connecticut tiii.1 week. During his absence lie will visit Washington, Mobile, Alabama, and other southern points, lie has been in poor health for sevtrnl months. lie will be nli'vtd by George N. Ifft, who was American consul at Stuttgart, (ierniany, until last I'cb-ruary. When diplomatic relations between the L'nited States and Germany were fevered he returned to America by way of Switzerland and Spain.

Many Staple Foods Of conditions in Uermany Mr. Ifft would i-peak of them ill a general way only, when quehtioned by The Tribune. The whole nation is on rations ond many staple foods are not obtainable. Coffee, tea, and sugar are seldom seen. German paper money Is plentiful but no matter how much money a person may have he cannot obtain food beyond tho ration limit.

"The German people are kept well Informed about the wur and English and French newspapers can he purchased ut all the large, cafes," Mr. Ifft ihclared. "True, they are Beveral days old but they can be obtained without difficulty. The people did tint seem to suffering. They had all the coal they wanted.

It was different in l'aris. There was no coal and the hotels were cold." The Germans expected the l'nited States would declare war and apparently were prepared for the rie- laration Mr. I fT said. They believ-eo the Americans wouVl continue to sii" 'v th allies with munitions, foodstuffs and money, but not troors. Would Continue War 'The Germans want to continue the war.

and then; net-mid to bo lit-tlo demand for peace," Mr. Ifft said. "I cannot make any prediction as to how long the war will last." Mr. Ifft has been travelling almost continually mce. he left Germany.

He visited 1'aris and later Madrid. Mr. Ryder plans to spend part of his vacation at southern seaside resorts. His month's leave of absence may be extended 30 days. Since the beginnin of the war he looked after German and Austrian Interests in addition to his own duties.

When the l'nited States severad diplomatic relations with Germnny, the Kwlss consul undertook to handle enemy Interests. The strain through which Mr. Ityder passed Interfered with his health. For several weeks he was a patient in the General hospital. He lmpes that his vacation in the south will restore his htalth.

H. DAVIDSON, Chairman of Commissioners. MMMWM.M..a.MJ i Webstar partially defines it "A state of being answer- able to a trust" i Responsibility in any matter ia shared by at least two contracting i We think thisthe case in the matter of street car transportation. i Our activities arc conducted with a view to always proving our responsibility I i to the public. They trust us to furnish street car transportation.

If it rains, they expect cars; if it snows, cars must be operated. In fact, under all circumstances and conditions, the public expect us to make good our responsibility to them. Ours is apposition of responsibility morally-mtterially, and this trust to the public is the guiding influence of our activities. BUT as we said befort; There are at least two parties vitally interested in this question The public, to which trust we are answerable, and-the Company, to which trust the public is answerable. Nothing prospers when one side gets all the advantages tn the end all lose.

It is therefore more economically healthy for a Gty to insist upon a fair distribution of the responsibility among those interests which serve the public and at the same time assume its fair and just proportion. -d PHONE BOARD LAYS BLAME ON PAPERS FOR "SENSATION" Aroused Over Publication of Testimony Telling of Effect of Low Wages When the telephone liuiulrv board met nt the parliament bulldinirs. If decided to exclude the representatives of the press for not obeying Its "instructions" and suppressing reports of sensational evidence In regard to the rTect of low wages on the mornlltv of a number of telephone operators. The board then went In executive session anil after three hours' deliberation it decided that future sessions should bo open to the press, as heretofore, but It Issued a statement solemnly Intimating that the newspapers were guilty of a breach of faith In not accepting the board's orders us binding. No Breach of Faith The contention of the board that the newspapers committed a breach of fit i It for publishing the article w.m flatly contradicted bv one of the newspni'rmen present.

Ho reminded the board thut the bearings were public and that there had been no agreement not to publish the testimony given before the board, therefore there could not have been a bleach in faith. Nevertheless, the board Insisted on standing bv its statement, blaming the press for publishing the article. The- statement Is as follows: "With reference to the statements published In last evening's papers reflecting on the conduct of the women employes of the Telephone System, the board of inquiry desires to the following statement: 'The statements reported were "nJe in confidence to the board and the newspaper representatives were Instructed not to make any report anl ban already been informed that no Information given confidentially could be printed, and they had agreed to this arrangement, and up to this point had loyally observed the rule. Tho board did not understand the witness to make any such statements as referring to the conditions now existing, or to the women now employed, or as reflecting on the management of the service since the present commission took office. "The chairman particularly desires to contradict a report in one paper that he confirmed the witness statements.

What he did say was that ha hr.d known of rases where gir's id irone astray owlnc to excessively low wages, but he did not make any statement ulth reference to the telephone cmploveq In Winnipeg." Reporter Were Excluded Confidential evidence was given at the hearing referred to in the statement, but the press was excluded before it was presented to the board. It referred to information gathered by the bureau of labor concerning the wages paid to girls employed in a number of local industries, and tho newspapers did not report it. When the commission met, Chairman Kdward McGrath referred to the stories published, and declared that ho thouKht they constituted a breach of faith. Mr. McVVilliams appeared to take the same view of the cuse, and urged Uie board to decide at once whether or not it was go.ntf to control its own deliberations.

"To a large extent the witness who gave the evidence Is responsible for the stories," Mr. McVViliiams said. "On the basis of her evidence The Tribune report was Justified." Mr. McWilliams declared that the reports were an injustice to-the telephone girls, ho were as respectable class of employes as cuuld be found in Winnipeg. "The Telephone commission will not ullow its employes to rest under any such charge," he eald, "and it proposes that the whole matter be gone Into very thoroughly." Mr.

McWilliams also objected to the report that Chairman McGrath indorsed the evidence of the operator. Mr. McGrath admitted that he indorsed the general stutement that low wages were often the cause of imniorulity, but that he did not Intend to Indorse the speclllc statement that such had been tho case In regard to the telephone girls. Watson Demands Report George. A.

Watson, commissioner of the Manitoba Government Telephones demanded to be told whether the newspaper reports were true. He was referred to the official shorthand report. Mr. Watson strenuously denied the imputation that telephone operators were immoral and declared that he was going to demand a public retraction and an apology Trom the operator who made the statements and also from one of the newspapers which reported the statements. Mr.

Williams "A refraction from the witness is the primary thing." Chairman MeOrath "Suppose the operator can prove her statements." Mr. Watson "Well, then, let her prove them." The commissioner declared that he was surprised that the board had not taken efficient steps to prevent the publication of statements that had not been proved. Mr. McGrath commented that it would appear that the operator was telling the truth so far as she knew it. Mr.

Watson declared w-lth emphasis that low wages were not a cause of Immorality, and that the employes of the Manitoba Government Telephones were as well paid as operators In other titles. During the executive session, the official stenographic report was produced and the evidence of the operator in question was read. "The official report mnkes it plain that The Tribune reported correctly the impression which the operator was trying to give," one of the counsel declared afterwards.
