Smtok| WASHINGTON, NOimi CAROLINA, JAN. 13, 1916. Jan? Addams declare? that Europe is anxious for peace. Why don't they quit fighting then ? A man in Greenville was sent to the roads for two years on the charge of retailing. Evidently, the jurors over in Pitt courity are of a different typo from those in Beaufort. , The Presbyterian Sunday School has started a membership cam paign. By tho time the Vanguard and the Baraca classes get through with their campaigns, they will have coralled practically every man in tho city. After T'ni'lc Sum gets things straightened out in Europe and ev erything running Miioothly again, along comes Villa and his followers in Mexico uud stir lip more trouble. THE BENEFIT OF ECONOMY. At the meeting of the Chamber of Commerce Tuesday night, before the session was called to order, an interesting discussion took placo among certain of the members regarding the practice of economy in foreign countries and the wasteful extravagance in our own. In illustrating his point, one of tho gentlemen present declared that it cost New York City three million dollars a year to clean her streets, while in Hamburg, the street department MAKES A PRO-, FIT out of its work. In the latter city all of the rubbish is accum-' ilated and then separated. All of tlie glass is taken out, all of the metal is colleeU?d, the paper is gathered up, the ashes are sold an 1 the sweepings and decayed vegetation is used for manure. In this way, enough funds aro raised to more than pay the cost of keeping Hamburg in tli neatest and cleanest condition. In connection with this, another gentlemau at the meeting made the statement that he had tried the same thing on a small scale in Washington. He used the wood and paper for getting up steam in his plant in the morning and lie used the ashes to advantage. He stated that he had no doubt but that every small city, if it. went alnnit the natter in the right, way. could practically pay for the cost of maintaining its street department. There is no doubt but that we are wasteful and extravagant. We spend three times the amount for luxuries that? Germany does; we waste million? in running our government and we lose hundreds of thousands every year in the manipulation of our industries and man-j ufaetiiries. Economy is but another word for efficiency and it is Lv.i "f rlieir economy that the Germans are so efficient in the pre. it wjr. I T FT E GOLDS BORO LYNCHING. Tt has remained for Wayne county to be the first to put a large' Mot on the records of North Carolina for 1910. A mob of two hun dred tnen yesterday broke into the county jail, took out a negro prisoner and after lyncbing hiin, riddled his Itody with bullet*. The entire affair is a disgrace of tlio deepest kind to the State. It is one of those affairs of which the perpetrators are hard to punisii and it will b a general surprise if the identity of the men is learned. The citizen* of Goldsbom have not only disgraced their town and their comity, but Wave (Tist a reflection upon the State and the entire South. WHERE WILL IT END? At the rate at which present events are progressing, it will not be lung before every nation in the world will l?e united to the teeth with' the moat modern guns and equipment, the largest armies and the most powerful navies whieh t.hev are capable of obtaining. The extent of military preparation at the present time is amazing rfnd the it^n who has studied the situation <-annot help but ask: Where will it all end ? Here in our own country we are setitng the pace for the other conntrie- that are at present at peace. We are plunnirig to build a navy sicond to none in the world and to increase our army to many times its present strength. Japan is following close in our footsteps and is yearly making larger appropriations for army and navy purposes. Her navy is being adder] to with regularity and her anny is among the most efficient in the world. Norway and Swed^ji are at the present time giving more attention to their military atTairs than they have ever done in the past. China has adopted compulsory military service and has already begun increasing her anny. What does it all mean ? Where will it end ? What is to be the ontcome of this stupendous preparation for warfare? Each country is trying to outstrip the other. As fast as one gets ahead in the size 'if it# anny or navy, the others immediately do their utmost to attain an equal basis. Every year more money is devoted for military and naval purposes. Is this to go on forever? We are throwing aside our ideas of Christianity and civilization. We are possessor! <d an unreasonable fear. * Few seem to be able to grasp t!5e meaning of the situation. "More money ! More men for the army! Greater guns! Larger and more powerful ships!" All these cries are ringing from one end of the country to the other. Wo aro going insane in the matter. We^tre deliberately planning our own ruin and destruction. The war in Europe has set the entire World afire on the subject of military preparation. THEY ARE ALL PREPARING ! But for what ? * No one knows. No one seems to care. ADVERTISEMENTS IN THE DAILY NEWS GIVE RESULTS 'VWWVWWNA^^NA To Combine Useful and of Architecture * ARNOLD W. BRUNNER.

There has from time to time of late been reason to fear that our railroads would not much longer be able to cope with it successfully as at present equipped and co-ordinated* I suggest that it would be wise to provide for a commission of inquiry to ascertain by a thorough canvass of the whole question whether our laws as at I present framed and administered are as serviceable as they might be in the solution of the problem. IT 18 OBVIOUSLY A PROBLEM THAT LIKS AT THE VERY FOUN DATION OF OUR EFFICIENCY AS A PEOPLE. 1 The regulation of the railways of the country by federal commission has had admirable results and has fully, justified the hopes and expecta tions of those by whom the policy of regulation was originally proposed. The question is not, What should we undo? It is whether there is any thing else we can do that would supply as with effective means in the very process of regulation FOR Blvi. T&RINQ THE CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH THE RAILROADS ARE OPERATED AND FOR MAKING THEM MORE USEFUL SERVANTS OF THE COUN TRY AS A WHOLE. I ; Increase of American Trade Due to Merit of Its Products By WILLIAM C RED FIELD, Secretary of Commerce IN the years before the war we had no banks abroad, no companies 1 through whom to invest abroad, no strong, Durely commercial gov | emment organization abroad. We lacked, inaeed, most of the facili ties through which our competitors gained their trade, yet the pure merit I of American goods and the power of American brains BUILT UP FOR | US A GREAT FOREIGN TRADE UNTIL WE BECAME ONE OF THE BIG THREE IN THE WORLD'S MARKETS. I Now we arcr getting the tools with which to work. The war haa bo ! operated as greatly to increase our business good* will all over the world. We are beginning to believe in ourselves and to realize that foreign trade is as necessary to the farmer, the miner and the railroad worker of the interior as it is to the export merchant of tlie ai-uport town. War, too, has done us good in a sense by taking our vision away from ourselves and making us see things in the large. Now we know we have * giant's strength, but we have proved that we have no desire to use it like a giant. WE HAVE DEMONSTRATED THAT WE YEARN, RATHER, TO U8E IT FOR THE HAPPINESS OP OUR PEOPLE AND THE GOOD OP HU MANITY. DAILY NEW^ WANT ADS GIVE GOOD RESULTS Omartlto ? D. J. Wbichtrd.
