Washington considers how to handle Austro-Hungarian workers in U S coal and steel fields as war with Austria-Hungary looms. Plans include gradual readjustment of labor, possible internment or removal only if feasible, and close observation to prevent industrial disruption. Congress faces a united wartime stance and debates on declaring war and offensive strategies with allies.
Colonel Dexter Baldwin thanks Smith for aiding a railroad crossing rescue at the dam. Baldwin notes a future visit to Corry's mother and teases about claim jumpers who harassed the party. Corry mentions Smith put the claim seekers to shame, and Baldwin jokes about missing the spectacle.
The reader asks if Smith should accept a key post at the ditch company to aid his hoped escape from prison linked to the Lawrenceville affair and suggests he might be wiser to disappear from the new job.
