The former Imperial Chan- cellor maintains that the re-establish- ment of national lines as they existed prior to the war would mean @ loss to Germany. Declaring that Germany will have to reckon after the war with the bitter hatred of France, England and Russia, he continues: “This fact must dictate the form which peace shall assume. The protec- tion which Germany shall find against renewed and new lust for revenge in the West and East, across the Channel, can only be in its own increased power. Our enemies, too, will strengthen arma- ments on land and water and we, for our part, must meet this condition. We must make ourselves stronger and hard- er to be attacked on our borders and coasts than we were at the beginning of this war, not for the sake of striving for world supremacy, with which we have been falsely charged, but in order to maintain ourselves against our foes. “The result’ of the war must not be negative, but positive. It is not a ques- tion of saving ourselves from: being de- stroyed, weakened, dismembered or plundered. We must gain real securi- ties and guarantees, both as a recom- pense for the unheard of trials and \suf- ferings we have endured, and as a curity for the future. "The face of the feelings , against us which this war will leave, the simple re-establishment of the status quo ante ellum for Germany would mean a loss/ and not a gain. We shall not be able to say with a good conscience that our general situation has been bettered by the war unless the strengthening of our political economic and military power considerably outweighs the enmi- ties engendered by the conflict.’’ ‘ The Socialists come in for a good word from Prince von Buelow and he expresses the belief that the co-oper- ation between them and the Govern- ment will be easier after the war. | Open a Savings Account, and ae oe do hard work in the chains of necessity.

EL PASO, Tex., July + Shere foot and gun units of the Massachusetts militia raised their tents in El Paso yes- terday. It is not advisable to say what their numbers are, but they exceed a brigade. Their equipment is as com- plete as any militia outfit in the coun- tr, and rivals the regulars’ in many ways. It is a fine, clean, upstanding band of men, trained in the art of war, but capable citizens outside of as well as within the profession of arms. Regular army officers are, without ex- ception so far as I know, “big army”’ men, It is their invariable contention that state guards, militia, national guard, reserve and such like are a waste of time and energy and.that the only way to train soldiers is to get them into the army. Organizations like the Mas- sachusetts militia are strong rebuttals to this contention. In personnel the rank and file of this militia balances very well. with regulars. The officers are every one men with military education. Nearly all of them are graduates of military schools, they all are forced to pass examinations such as the army prescribes, and these ex- aminations are frequent, so that the militia officers has no chance to “go stale.”” Since the militia is to them not a means of support, as the army is to the regular officer, they follow other callings, and so are not as well trained nor as up to the mirute as the regular. The regular also probably has devel- oped more highly his military talents, through constant application and study. But other of the militia officers’ facul]- ties are more highly developed, which may be an advantage. The Second Brigade.is commanded ty Brigadier-General E. Leroy Sweetzer cf Melrose, Mass. He is a wellknown law- yer, who is now on the bench. Among the lower officers are ‘‘Dono”’ Minot, once a Harvard fullback; Sam Winslow, son of the Congressman; J. F. Herbert, managing editor of the Worcester Post; Dr. A. W. Green of Boston and a great many others whose names have received prominence in ways other than war. The men appear to be well trained. They are hardy, intelligent looking fel- lows, quite as capable appedring as the | regulars, except in point of tan. Our regulars are red like Indians or .brown like Mexicans. The Massachusetts con- tingent are pink and white. This will pass away. The men come from all walks of life, their officers told me, but I found two doctors and four lawyers. There is nothing to show that a doctor or lawyer will make a better soldier than one of the unemployed, but it does emphasize the opinion that the militia | draws its recruits from sources the reg- ular army does not appeal to. Many Harvard Men There are many Harvard men in the’ ranks, alongside the shoe clerks and ex- preses wagon drivers. Again it cannot be shown that a Harvard education in- creases or improves a man’s soldierly qualities, but it is likely that there are few Harvard men enlisted in the regular } army. Defenders of the militia system point out that since the trend of public opin- ion is to give as many young men as possible a military training, the militia can gain recruits the regular army never could. , This Massachusetts outfit appears to have been well handled, and the men are in good shape. They had been five days on the road, riding in Boston & Maine Rallroad day ccaches four reeu- have sleepers for night trips), but they arrived not worn. out. Five men were sick and seven s#uc- cumbed to slight attacks of sun after they had detrained, but this was a very small pércentage of disabilities, and none was serious. The organization brought its automo- biles, motor trucks, ambulances, big guns, hospital corps and signal corps. It arrived here an army ready for war, and even the regular army officers were compelled to praise. Trains Look Sinister, Very sinister their flat cars looked, pulling in in the night, each shrouded wagon tisd in its place, and each car guarded by an alert rifleman. The long trains of cavalry horses and wagon mules look grim and saturnine, bent on war, determined. By day they are more amiable. The cars have legends chalked on them, ail in a light mood, “Erin go Bragh,” “Ain’t it a grand old flag?” “Wanted, lady cook who can speak Spanish.” While the unit which went into camp on Ye bleak plain beyond Fort Bliss was putting up its tents, there was much good humor among the tired men. Many of them were “pulling” what others called “Harvard stuff.” A gang of Mexicans was laying water pipes along the streets of the tented town. They were in charge of a Mexican foreman, who attended strictly to his own busi- ness and saw that the joints were pro>- erly made. The Massachusetts officers addressed him in broadest ' Bostonese, and he answered them in fair American of the Far West. He was Jose de la Luz Blanco, who was commanding Ge1- eral under Orozco, but who has laid down the sword and taken up the Stil- son wrench. He did not tell the militia. men that he had seen more war than they probably ever would. Wouldn’t Do in Reoston. One Captain passed a line of dobe huts where an American citizen who probably cannot speak a word of En- glish was playing tn the dust with his two babies. ‘They looked very poor, very contented and happy and fairly unsanitary in the Sunday calm. ({ Some- where inside a guitar twang The officer said: “Is not that awful? We would not permit these people to live like that in Boston. We would no‘ let people live in those houses. What can those peeople get out of life? What do they know about life?’ The guitar twanged on, as the Captain eased his rough collar Bs his chafed neck. | f Tr TT UNE WEEK SHOT BY HER HUSBAND East St. Louis Man Says Wife Tried to Shoot. Him—She Is Expected to Recover. Following a quarrel with his wife aft- er their return to their East St. Louis home from an amusement park at Il o’clock last night, John T. Touchette shot and seriously wounded her. The bullet entered her face at the side of the nose and ranged downward. She was taken to the Deaconess Hospital. Touchette surrendered to the police this morning. The couple were married last Monday at Clayton, where they eloped from Centerville. Touchette was a farmer. and while visiting recently in East St. Louis met Mrs. Nellie Poston, a di- vorcee. They were married, Touchette told the police today, and his wife per- suaded him to _Jeave the farm and open a rooming house at 621 North Sixth street, East St. Louis. Touchette said they quarreled fre- quently and he reproved her last night for nodding at a man at the park. He said she tried to shoot him, that he wrested the weapon from her and fired two shots, one taking effect. At the hospital it is said Mrs. Touch- ette will recover. “Casement Appeal to Be Heard July 17 LONDON, July 3.—The hearing of the appeal of Sir Roger Casement, who on June 29 was found guilty of high treason and sentenced ‘to death for complicity fn the Irish rebellion, has been fixed for July 17. -—eoo or —- WOMAN GIVEN TWO DAYS To Make Up Her Mind for Surgical Operation.

I went to different doctors and they, all said I had fe- male trouble and would not get any relief until I would be operated on. I had suffered for four years before ithis time, but I kept getting worse . the more medicine I took. At intervals since I was a young girl I had suffered with cramps in my side. I saw your advertise- ment in the newspaper and the pic- ture of a woman who had been saved from an operation and this picture was impressed on my mind. The doc- tor had given me only two more days to make up my mind, so I sent my husband to the drug store at once for a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege- table Compound, and, believe me, I only took four doses before I felt a change, and when I had finished the third bottle I was cured and never felt better.

BROWNS NOT SO_ BAD Addition of Two Cardinals “Would Give Jones a Near- Pennant Combination. By W. J. O’Connor. ' Almost one-half of the 1916 base- ball race has been run and if. it wasn’t for Connie Mack’s collegiate misfits St. Louis would have the un- enviable distinction of owning both tailenders. Try as they may, the Browns hardly can finish last. As Dispatch: _ ‘‘The Athletics have eighth place reserved for thé sea gon.’’ The Cardinals are not so : Géitaiahe: They have no Connie Mack to protect them from the cellar assignment and it will require a continual battle on the art Or Miller Huggins to escape the fnonstn of the bottom — seid poor trons vi 8 e imnlaee : chem, if you please. What with the heat and the Cards _: to mention the Brow the lot isn’t much better than the trench de fenders of Fricourt. But if oné carés to take a shot in ths arm and consider what ‘“‘might have been,”’ the outlook isn’t so indigo. Let’s consider, for instance, the possibilities of the Browns if Jones had Tommy Long in right field and Rogers Hornsby on third base. Those two horsehide assassins Would make the Browns a pen- nant pretender, in spite of any man- ager alive. & Long Is Hitting Again. Long is hitting better this season than he did a year ago. Since he returned regularly to the box score on June 7 he has gone hitless in only one full _Bame. He failed Saturday to connect with the curves of Prendergast or Pack- ard in the first game of a double-header, while he went to bat once on June 3 and also failed to connect. But in 21 oO games since June 7 he hand land- ed for one or more hits in every game. His total is 36 hits in 8 times at bat, a mere matter of .425. And Hornsby is worrying along with a scant .299. Rogers hits for big league singles and riples when he does connect, and is tabbed in the baseball dope books as a batter with a “punch.” Put him up there the box score forthwith. Just consider what the Cardinals would be without this pair. ake away Long’s average of .426 in the last 21 games and Hornsby’s .299 for the season, and Sallee’s back-to-the- farm movement would be emulated by more than one great pastimer. It would possibly be involuntary onthe cert of others; but without Long and ornsby the Cards surely would have surrendered the old franchise and disbanded. *Twould Look Like First Division The Browns, on the other hand, would be in the pennant swim witk this pair. Austin is fretting along with an average of .185 against Hornsby’s .299. Johnny Tobin is do- ing .214 against Long’s .331. Those are the weak links in the Browns’ chain of defense. Austin fanned yesterda with Shotton on third, and the rowns were beaten when it rained, 3—2, in the fifth frame. That's the reason why Jones first division predictions sound so The writer last winter risked a sma!] wager on a hunch that Chuck Deal would play more games at third than Austin. We didn’t think Deal a world- beater, but it was our theory that if Austin played third the Browns would not be of pennant caliber. However, after inhaling the many, many threats from Jones, to-wit: ‘‘This is the best team I ever had. I will win with it or quit,”” we reached the con- clusion that Deal Was a great third sacker. However, the conviction is now forced that even a man who has devoted his entire life to the game of baseball, and has won a world’s championship, has no more license to forecast the eventualities of a race than the two-bit oon of the sun-kissed seats, who pardizes his life by sitting througn a game like yesterday's. If the bleacherites were “eggs’’ they would be fried after yesterday's session. But those same bleacherites can -;ead baseball's future just as well as Hug, Jonesy, McGraw or anybody else, St. Louis Crews _ Favorite Today in Peoria Races Central Rowing Club Is Expect- ed to Score Most Points on ‘Junior Day.” PEORIA, IL, July 3.—St. Louis crews are expected to have things their own way today, when the junior events of ‘the annual Central States Amateur As- sociation rowing regatta are held ‘on the Iilinois River here.

B. A. C. Harry Kabakoff, the fast St. Louls bantamweight boxer, has been matched to fight Eddie Evers of Pekin, IIL, at the South Broadway A. C.’s next out- door show at the Motodreme, Thursday: night. . Arrangements were closed yesterday, according to Matt Soffka, matchmaker for the S. B. A. C. In addition to the 12-round main event, an eight-round semi-final between Cy Young of Atlanta, Ga., and Joe McMil- len of San Francisco was announced today. The preliminary will be between Luke Thomas and Pete Macklin, six? rounds. Evers is considered a bantam of moré than average ability, while Kabakoff was for s@me time considered the best bantamweight in St. Louis. Bantam Boxers Please. Johnny Ertle, Johnny Ritchie, Benny McNeill, ‘‘Dutch’’ Brandt, Matty Smith and.Jimmy Handon in recent bouts here set such a hot pace that boxers who have followed them have found it hard to follow their , footsteps. Compared with those mentioned, the exhibitions given by Ed Gilmore of Chicago and Freddie Andrews of Milwaukee were about sixth class. Some of our local boys, if they emu- lated the styles of Ertle, Ritchie, Mo- Neill and Brandt would get along much better in the ring and their perform- ances would be much more pleasing. The boys mentioned come from other cities, but make no complaint about “ST. LOUIS RULES.’ They know the rules governing boxing, that’s all, and observe them. They know, too, when they vio- late them, and it is seldom that they do. Their exhibitions are first-class ones of scientific boxing, and they don’t draw adverse criticism by clinching and holding, wrestling and hugging, or hit- ting while holding, and they can box rings around boys who think they are fighters and try to demonstrate by being “tough,” disregarding the rules, trying to make a “rough-house” affair of their bouts, and constant complaining about Nght today in the Central States By Jean Knott || JPENING ROUND Ut ‘CENTRAL STATES TO BE FINISHED TODAY Sectional Doubles Tourney Also Is Scheduled to Start at Triple A OTHER VISITORS HERE Out-of-Town Players Have Fairly Easy Matches in Pairings Today.

Under Cover of Darkness, Indians Beat Browns, 3-2 CLEVELAND, O., July 3.—"‘Cleveland has the luck it had at the start of the season,” said Manager Jones last night. “We beat them, 7 to 0, in the first game of the series, and then they turned right in and took the next three, eaclby the narrowest of margins, one ryn each time. In those three games-they got practically every break, especially in the close decisions. Someone has gut to suffer for these three defeats, though, and, as Chicago plays ‘us next, I am confident we will hit our winning local firmament to look to their tennis laurels.

Kumagae, who is the better known of the two as a singles player, holds the Singles title of the Far East, while the two divide the honors in the doubles supremacy of the same division. Their most striking feat was the elim- ination of “Tubby’’ Griffin and Ward Dawson in the final round of the Far) East tourney at Manila last month. Griffin was last season ranked fifth among American stars and is a member of the well-known ‘‘Coast Tennis Trust.” Kumagae Defeated Griffin. In the same tournament, in the singles finals, Kumagae expunged Griffin, 10—8, 6—3, 10.—8, after having eliminated Daw- son in an earlier round. In the 1914 Far East tourney, also held in Manila, Kumagae lost to Elia Fot- trell, after giving that nationally re- puted star a great struggle. Johnston, the present American champion, ulti- mately won the title, but in an exhibi- tion match with the Nippon wonder was forced to drop a set.

Stephen D. Gilmore of %19 Easton, a self-styled anti-Catholic, today told a reporter for the Post-Dispatch that he was one of about 180 men who distrib- uted cards and pasted stickers in 1918 for the Independent Voters’ League in op- position to the candidacy of Dr. John H. Simon, Democratic nominee for May- or, because he is a Catholic. The stickers, which on the face of them, purported to have been put out by the candidate, Dr. Simon, himself, read as follows: “VOTE FOR ME BECAUSE— I am a devout ROMAN CATH- OLIC, AGAINST the GODLESS PUBLIC SCHOULS, and patron- ize only OUR HOLY PRIESTS’ SCHOOLS. I was discharged by Rolla Wells, PROTESTANT DEMOCRATIC Mayor, for em- ploying only Catholics and my brother KNIGHTS OF COLUM- BUS in the Health Department. “DR. HN H. SIMON.” They were pasted on fences, walls, poles and sidewalks all over the city a day or two before the election. How Work Was Done. Gilmore, in telling a Post-Dispatch re- porter of the manner in which the stick- ers were put out, said: “I went with Harry Brindle to the home of Dr. L, €. McElwee-of-1221 North Grand avenue on a night just a day or two before the election and met there the men with whom we worked pasting the stickers and circulating the cards. “None of the men knew what were to do until we arrived at Dr. McElwee’s. We were given our stickers and cards by U. G. Robinson of 3301 Sullivan ave- nue (the latter was one of the doorkeep- ers at the recent meeting of the league Sunday a week ago at the Odeon, which was exposed in the Post-Dispatch) and were given our instructions about put- ting out the stuff by Greene F. Harding and Dr. McElwee. “Harding had a city map, which he spread out on a table, with the aid of which he showed each man the district he was to cover with his stickers and circulars. Robinson started to make a speech to us and he spoke so loud Dr. McElwee told him several times down.’ my 4istrict and gave the cards out at the doors of several! Protestant churches after services. We were all instructed to give the cards out in this manner, and I believe everybody followed in- structions.” Gilmore worked with Brindle, he said, and it was Brindle who took him to the McElwee home. The leaders of the organization promised him a city posi- tion in the event of Dr. Simon's defeat, he said, and when they failed to make good their promise he became disgrun- tled and went to Dr. Simon with the in- formation he had concerning the league and its activities against the latter. Put Out of League Meeting. Recently Gilmore answered an adver- , tisement in the personal column of the Post-Dispatch want ads in which a re- ward was offered to persons who would give information concerning the I. V. L. Shortly after talking with the men who represented themselves as the per- sons responsible for the advertisement, he was asked to leave the Sunday meet- ing of the league in the Odeon, being ; told he was “‘an undesirable,” he said. This meeting was the one to which a reporter for the Post-Dispatch gained access and of which a full account was published on the following day. Gil- more had been invited to the meeting by a friend, he said. Dr. McElwee, when asked this morn- ing by the reporter for a statement con- cerning the connecting of his name by Gilmore with the activities of the secret league, denied that there had been any such gathering as described by Gilmore at his home. He said he was not a member of the league and knew nothing of its activities. All that he knows of reading the Post-Dispatch. Robinson, when seen by the reporter, also denied any knowledge of the gath- ering told of by Gilmore, and said he direct answer.

A Bulletin No. 5 The Bethlehem Steel Company’s Offer.to Serve the United States At a time when the expenses of the Government are so enormous— Isn’t it worth while finding out the actual facts before plunging ahead into an expenditure of $11,000,000 of the people’s money for a Government armor plant?

We will agree to this for such period as the Government may designate. The House of Representatives voted down a proposal to empower the Federal Trade Commission to determine a fair price for armor, and allow private manu- facturers opportunity to meet that price before the Government built its plant.

SURVIVOR TELLS OF FLIGHT AFTER GARRIZAL FIGHT Corporal Recounts How He Hid by Day and Traveled by Night for Safety. CAUGHT AT WATER HOLE Fed by Mexican Women Who Showed Him Same Considera- tion as Carranza Soldier. EL PASO, Tex., July 3.—Corp. Frank Cooke of the Tenth Cavalry, survivor of Carrizal, who was brought to Juarez vesterday, was turned over to the Amer- ican military authorities at 11:55 a. m. today: Corporal. Cooke quoted Capt. Boyc as saying just before the commander gave orders to his men to advance: “The General has given orders that there is only one way for us to g0 and that is to the north. My orders are to go to Villa Ahumda to the cast, and I am going there.’’ In previous stories, Capt. Boyd’s mis- sion has been explained to avave been the recovery of a deserter at Villa Ahu- mada.. Capt. Boyd, Cooke said, cau- tioned them against firing first and pain ef heavy punisn- dentally, under ment. Wandered for Four Days. After escaping from the fight at Car- ‘eal, Cooke said he wandered foodless a broken right arm for four days, vereral more on-the hospitality of ‘can ranchers, and then pushed out a.one for the American base, only to ba c+ ptured at a water hole. He was tak- en to Villa Ahumada yesterday after- rcon and put on a train in the evening for Juarez. Despite his American uniform and bandaged arm, his appearance caused no hostile €emonstration in Villa Ahu- mada, and not even curiosity in Juarez. Mexican officials said Cooke confirmed this statement. “I was shot dgwn in the very begin- “ning. of the fight,’ said Corp. Cooke, ‘T crawled back. with my arm dragging to a ditch. There I. met. Corp. Queen. The Corporal undid his etnergehcy ba.- dage and bound up my arm. I then went back to: where the horse holders had been and couldn't see anybody. 5So 1 struck out for the place where we shad eomped the night before. “I didn’t even know the place of the fight was named Carrizal. And I saw only five men who had been shot. down, Lut someone said Capt. Boyd was killed. The number killed and captured is sure a surprise to me. Waited at Old Camp. “T reached our old camping ground about 2:30 in the afternoon, and stuck around there until 8 at night, expecting my command to assemble there. No, sir, I didn’t intend to surrender. I in- tended to get back to our base at Feder- {co. “For four days I wandered around trying to work my way back the wiy we came. But I got off on the wrong trail. I didn’t get a bit to eat these days, and had hard work finding water. Of course, I did my traveling at nignt and hid in the mesquite in the day. “But I got so weak with my arm swollen up, loss of blood and no food thrat finally, while I was looking for water, I saw a Mexican at a well water- ing mules, and, believe me, he looked good, even if he was a Mexican. . “On my wanderings I had picked up a Mexican clay water bottle, and the first thing I did at the well was to empty the bottle six times. When the Mexican got over his astonishment I made signs and the women gave me some beans. Afterward I slept. They all treated me | just as nice as if I had been one of their jown soldiers. They knew about the fight, i but I could only point to my arm and ‘say, ‘Villa /humada.’ I stayed about | four days, I ‘onchon: or five. During that ‘time the Mexicans bathed my-earm in hot water and reduced the swelling, but J wanted a doctor to set the bone. So I struck off again across the desert. After water ran out. Caught by Cavalryman. “I was kind of backward about being seen in those parts, but I couldn't find any drinking plasce, and at last went down to a waterhole. While I was drink- ing a Carranza cavalryman came up and let me back to a ranch. We were about twelve miles below Villa Ahumda. I learned. The soldier got a horse and we rode over to the town. There they kept me in the military quarters unt!! the Juarez train left. I came up to Juarez with the soldier and a couple of Mexican families in a box car. The soldier and all the Mexicans I met treated me very kindly, and I haven't any kick.’ Cooke enlisted from New York City. He has served six years in the army. The return of Cooke reduces the number of American dead at Carrizal to 14. Everybody's happy at the Highiands. “The Big Place on the Hill.” Educators in ‘Convent?

Opposition to a renewal of the saloon license held by James Curran for a sa- loon at 684 Maple avenue has led Tesi- dents of the Hodiamont district to make night visits to the saloon to collect evi- dence to lay before the Excise Commis- sioner, in an effort to prove the saloon is disorderly and should not be. per- mitted to continue. At a hearing on a remonstrance befors Excise Commissioner Rumsey Saturday, A. M. Roblee, a teacher in a mission at 1118 Hodiamont avenue, and W. M. Dear of 6029 Maple avenue, testified that on a visit to the saloon Friday night they saw nearly twenty men, white and black, ‘‘canning beer’’ in the yard in the rear of the saloon, and acting in a disorderly manner. They said there was a break in the fence back of the saloon and that the actions of the roisterers were visible to persons residing in apartment houses and residences in the West Cabanne dis. trict. Others who appeared in opposition to a renewal of the license were the Rev. Francis Russéll, pastor of the West Presbyterian Church and Capt. Harry L. Wells, 1302 Laurel street. The remonstrators also are attacking the sufficiency of the petition. There are 13 taxpayers in the block qualified to sign a saloon petition. Curran has nine names on his petition.

Evén as late as the opening of spring some hopeful party organs were still predicting that the current fiscal year, like the preceding one, would end with a Treasury deficit. Several organs for a long time previously had been featuring the routine daily report of Gov- ernment receipts and expenditures, for which the press seldom finds space even in the finan- cial column. The frequent excess of daily expenditure over receipts and the slow decline of the ready money in Uncle Sam’s pocketbook have been the cause of more gloating than perhaps any other development under the present adminis- tration. Evidence allegations: 1. The incapacity and general worthlessness of Democracy. 2. The utter failure of the Underwood law as a revenue-raising measure. ' ' 3. The depressed state of business throughout the country, due to Democratic policy. But the new fiscal year that came in Saturday found, not a deficit, but a. surplus of revenue over expenditure amounting to $78,737,810. The balance in the general fund is $174,965,231, the largest since 1908. The final six months of the fiscal year, which saw prosperity completely’ restored, after a grad- ual revival extending through many prior months, exerted a magical effect on Treasury business. Wonderful increases were shown in the receipts from the tariff, from incomes and from the internal revenue taxes. The falling off in receipts during a prior period was much more than made up. . Total receipts of $124,867,420 from the corpo- ration and income tax—about $45,000,000 more than during the previous year, or nearly 60 per cent—may be held up as B penaperty’ s index num- was found of several damaging Of course, it is not due to Democratic policy, but to the war's stimulative effect on our finance. So administration critics say. But when deficits were threatened they were saying the opposite. The unsatisfactory Treasury sit- uation was due to Democratic policy, not to the destructive influence which the war had for many months on commerce and finance. The critics should standardize their theories LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE imine ‘Enforce the Speed Law. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Regardiess of what any one may say, think or do to the contrary, any person who knowingly and deliberately violates a law is a criminal at heart. I am informed through a reliable éource chat out of all arrests for exceeding the ‘speed limit, legs than 6 per cent ever pay the fine, that nearly all the fines imposed are marked on the books as payment of same, regardless of the books show- ing ‘fine paid. The foregoing results being gen- erally obtained by nolle pros or defeat in@another court. I was also informed today that one speeder who had been fined $500 today and who has been apprehended many times would never pay the fine, as he would take the case to another court and be dismissed. If this condition of affairs continues it is bound to finally result in a total and sneering contempt for the law against speeding and this will result in an utter disregard for the rights of pedestrians, the speeder caring only for his own sense of safety and nothing for the rights of others. It would seem that your worthy institution could make some effort to see justice done in the above matter—that these laws be strictly en- forced in every respect or annulled. If annulled we will understand that we must depend entirely on our own ability for protection and not misled into. eapsetbatae in any protection from the law. é J. C. HENNING. Relief for Soldiers’ Families. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Letter by “Justice” in today’s Post-Dispatch ex- presses my sentiments exactly regarding the dis- tribution of moné¢y to the men who have gone to the front to fight for our country. The Provi- Gent Association should not be asked to handle the money, as it fs strictly a charity association, and our soldiers’ families should not have to de- pend upon charity; they should not have to be humiliated in this matter, There are compara- tively so few of them that if their employers do not pay their salary, or part of it, it should be subscribed by popular subscriptions and handled in a tusiness-like manner; a check being serit: to the wife or mother the first of each month, and ity institution. A SISTER. _* Our Record Speaks for Itself. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I have always been led to believe that yours & newspaper conducted entirely independent of party politics, but I feel that no Democrat could ever hope for a more upholding sentiment of his party's policies than is displayed in your editorial comments. I can readily appreciate how one may agree or disagree, as the case may be, with a single act of legislation, or the policy of conduct in a single ovent, but when a newspaper declares itself favor- ably upon almost every fundamental national is- ste which has been raised and sustains those opin- es with forceful argument, I cannot help tut se] that your columns are party biased and no lop ger free of the contamination which a truly in- dependent paper should be.

Now that the hot weather is upon us; it is well to remember that, in the crowded districts of the city, babies are in great danger unless they cah be supplied with good milk. A single feeding of milk that is souring because of the heat may, at this time of year, start a sickness that may be very hard to control. The only way to prevent an increase in infant mortality in. the summer months is to insure the quality of the milk. A constant supply of ice is needed for this purpose. Up to this time the Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund has depended for its increase almost sole- ly upon the efforts of the children. of St. Louis who, every year for several years past, have raised the greater part of the fund through their various juvenile entertainments. They are do- ing well this year. But surely, feeling the effect of the heat, the grown folks of the city, especially those who something to help this worthy cause. Why leave it all to the children? . A small contribution to the fund may save some baby’s life. And, in this case, he that gives promptly gives twice. Should the Colonel ever be rewarded with the highly important office of Secretary of State, Ber- lin may feel considerably interested. = = * — THE NEW MILITIA OATH. One hundred Iowa militiamen who refused to take the new oath prescribed by Congress were stripped of their uniforms and sent home in disgrace and in overalls. From other states even severer treatment for those who rejected the oath is reported. If these men are unmistakably “slackers” or their reluctance abour taking the new obliga- tion is due to cowardice, doubtless it is proper to jeer them out of camp. But a popular Eastern athlete who occasioned great surprise by re- jecting the oath, thereby incurring much odium, later reappeared at camp and complied with the regulation. He explained that his first attitude was due to the opposition of his family, subse- quently relaxed. Probably many others have an explanation as good. Men who, having arranged their private affairs on the basis of compliance with the old obliga- tion, now find that the revised obligation imposes unexpected hardships, have just as much right to refuse the new terms of the contract as Congress had to change the form of the contract. Mani- festly three-year enlistments might cause less destruction to private plang than the new six- year enlistment. Opprobrious demonstrations are to be regretted, not only as inflicting unjust humiliation in some individual cases, but as not likely to increase the willingness of young men to join the national guard after the_ present crisis is over. = = '-—- = MERRY MAGICIANS. There was a time when newspapers lacked the magic of the comic artist. Nowadays, no metro- politan newspaper is complete without one or more “strips” from the pen of these merry magicians. We call them magicians, because, to arouse the sense of humor in many thousands of human beings daily, by drawing something on a sheet of paper, is magic pure and simple. It is something no fellow can explain. But the magic does not touch all alike. Here is a Post-Dispatch reader, for example, who sends in a postal card with this comment: ugly Axel stuff? It is unrelieved ugliness.” By no means. You can skip it. Perhaps, if we could take a straw vote, we should find a hundred who enjoyed “Flooey and Axel,” but could not be touched by the magic in “’Smatter.

If you don’t like Vic, you may dote on Goldberg. We hope so. There are others who dote on him. = = * a ABOLISH THE TWILIGHT ZONE. After a meeting of the City Plan Commission and the advocates of what is known as the Clark plan to reclaim the Twilight Zone had been an- nounced, for last Tuesday, nothing was done, it appearing that those interested in the reclama- tidn plan were not present in force. The City Plan Commission is ready to do its part towards making a success of the plan, but recognizes the fact that the property owners, who will reap most of the profit, must do their full share. This whole district, between Jefferson and Vandeventer and Cass and Market streets, is a standing evidence to the lack of foresight and apathy with regard to their own and the city’s interests of the property owners and real estate concerns that have had control of property there. For a long time they held up values to figures that deterred investors. They did little or no improvement, and they rented property to undesirable persons, causing an efflux of de- sirable residents from the district. All this in expectation of a boom, which did not arrive. And now it is too late. The tide of settlement has passed them by and they are afflicted with stigma on St. Louis. suggested by Allen W. Clark and the City Plan Commission would be one of the greatest im- provements ever made in St. Louis. It would resuscitate about a hundred blocks right in the heart of the city that are now dead and in pro- cess of decay. Probably more than a third of the property in this district does not pay its owners enough to cover taxes. Another meeting should be called for the pur- cose of giving the plan a start. When its ad- vantages are seen, doubtless it will result in an organization that will give the City Plan Com- mission a basis for action. = = -- There is nothing like reliable water transpor- tation to relieve railroad pressure and car scarcity. — . “1. —— = —_— -_ THE MEAT OF THE MOOSE. If the members of the Progressive National Committee, as individuals, fairly represent thelr party, there is cold comfort for Republicans in the vote by which Mr. Hughes is indorsed. Thirty-two men, less than two-thirds of the committee—to be exact, 64 per cent—sald “aye;” 1? per cent voted “no!” 18 per cent refused to re- spond; 6 per cent were absent. Several dissidents announced the logical intention of seeking social justice in the Democratic ranks. On the basis of the 1912 popular vote, a defec- tion of 36 per cent of the Progressives to Democ- racy would give Mr. Wilson 7,776,000 votes to Mr. Hughes’ 6,121,000. Count the three absentees for Hughes; still, the percentages 70 and 30, re- spectively, of the old Progressive vote added to the Taft and Wilson 1912 totals leave the latter 1,160,000 in the lead. Indeed, 15 per cent of the Progressive strength is all the Republicans can concede to Democracy and break even in the pop- ular vote. Nor do the details allay apprehension. Utah, which gave Mr. Taft half his electoral vote in 1912: Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Wisconsin and Missouri are among the balky states. Hawaii and the District of Columbia, in the Hughes column, have no electoral vote. New York was for Hughes —after public assertion that it was not, and the passing of the lie; but the party chairman in New York County, representing twice as many Moose- men as the committeemen from Alabama, Ari- zona and Arkansas combined, is out against the patriots whom the great leader once branded as “burglars.” ‘= = * —_ a A food swindler in Germany has hanged him- self, but American food swindlers continue to cling to life. = = '- - HOPEFUL OREGON’S FLAX EXPERIMENT. An appropriation made by the last Oregon Legislature for experiments in the cultivation of flax will be expended under the direction of a Belgian expert in the growing of the crop. What Oregon is aiming at is an improved pro- duction of fiber flax. But in the Great Lakes region and farther west, flax is already an im- portant crop. The acreage devoted to it averages nearly 2,500,000 a year. It is grown, however, for the seed and the manufacture of linseed oil. Much fiber of good quality is produced, but great quantities of it go to waste. A study of our existing flax industry reveals one of the lamentable failures of the protective principle. The outrageous textile schedules of the former high protection system levied uncon- scienceable duties on fabrics made from flax. We had no linen industry, but the duties were im- posed on the theory that if some fabrics and articles made of linen were admitted at a mod- erate tax or entirely untaxed they would enter into competition with similar fabrics and articles made of cotton or wool. Although the American people bore these un- just burdens for a generation, a linen industry never developed. The framers of the Payne- Aldrich bill in continuing and adding to these burdens were with difficulty persuaded to grant free entrance to linen weaving machinery for 18 months, but the results were negligible. Linens even for uses for which fabrics of other material are little employed were rendered sdarce and dear that the cotton and wool men might not be deprived of benefits too small to be esti- mated. Before hopeful Oregon spends much money on the improvement of fiber flax, it ought to be certain that our unprogressive Textile Trust is prepared to establish an industry for utilizing the fiber. = = An old man of 102 years has had sickness the greater part of his life.

(New School.) a RIENDS: I am going to make a Fourth of July speech unlike | anything of the kind you have heard. There will be less en- thusiasm, but more common sense. The patriotism will be exactly the same. Very well. We have here a very big and very promising = country. It is not the greatest 4; country on earth, nor is it the least. It is merely one of the great countries. We love it best because it is ours. That is also why we have a great many foolish notions of its power and importance. There is no help for that. It is a good thing. to Is that admitted? If so, we will on. Our country is all appearances doing well. It is the only great ‘power not in the war, and if we can retain this dis- tinction until the end, as it seems we shall, something will have been added to our stature as a civilized nation. The pride we would feel for having done well in a war is nothing to the pride we shall feel for having done better by keeping out of war altogether. Thanks for that applause. It was, I think, de- served, but should have been no louder than that. It because Mr. is becoming easy to say sensible things like this Wilson is saying them all the time. Can’t he say them, though? It beats all how he is putting the jingoes into their holes one by one and expressing what this nation in its heart feels. The Fourth of July is a celebration of what was accomplished by the War of the Revolution. It is well to celebrate what was accomplished at that time. It is, however, just as much our duty to keep the country out of war now as it was the duty* of our forbears to get it into war then. Thanks again, my friends. What I want to make plain is that we still have fight in us. We have go much of it in us that we can scarcely restrain our- a gn Written for the POST-DISPATCH by Clark McAdams ag nt gg ay OO yO ay Te selves when we see nothing more than a chance to fight. Mr. Roosevelt and somo of the rest of us are like the Irishman who went into a saloon and saw a fight going on in a back room, ‘*Is that a. private fight, or kin annywan git into it?’’ he asked the bartender. All the fights going on at this time are private fights. Just anyone can’t get into them. That is the case in Europe. It is the case in Mexico. It is quite true that we have had provocation of a sort, but we have never had sufficient provocation to declare war. War means death and misery untold. We know that, but. we have to be told. There is a glamour about war that sweeps a nation off its feet. If we can keep our feet through these troublous times and be able to say that we showed the world an honorable way to keep out of war, we shall have rendered Civil- ization as great a service as she has ever acknowl- edged at the hands of men since Time dawned. Thanks a third time. That is all, friends. If someone will kindly fire some mild and non-mutilat- ing explosive, we will have the band play something and all go home. A correspondent of Just a Minute objects to our intimation that T. R. might desert his men somewhere in Mexico and go over to Carranza. We accept the correction, and make it the pacifists. Just so no one insists that the Colonel would stay on one side very long. BUSINESS IS BUSINESS. Eugene was a very mischievous little boy, and his mother’s patience was worn to the limit. She had spoken very nicely to him several times without ef- fect. Finally she said: ‘*You are a perfect little heathen!’’ ‘*‘Do you mean it?’’ demanded Eugene. Indeed, I do,’’ said the mother. ‘*Then, mother,’’ said the boy, ‘‘why can't I keep that 10 cents a week you gimme for the Sunday school collection?
