LITE POUR FRANCE Spring has come again and tender green corers the battle-scarred earth. Mature, the sovereign panacea, has already begun her work of restoration flowers blossom over the graves of fallen heroes. Soon May will bring the poppies, "between the crosses, row on row," little gray crosses, each with its aluminum identification tag and those that mark the graves of the men who are buried in French ceme teries inscribed with the words "Morte Pour France." Sixty thousand Americans lie asleep in France, "Morte Pour France" surely no other sentence could tell the story half so well. "Dead for France." Probably the best known poem of "the war is one quoted below, "In Flan ders Fields," breathing the fine spirit of sacrifice for an ideal. "America's Answer" stilled all fear that the sac rifice was in vain, and now when vic tory in battle is won comes "America's Consecration," pledging a victory of right "Be it our task to save, "In memory of the life you gave, "Those rights for which your blood was shed "In Flanders Fields!" This is our task, in memory of thost sixty thousand dead, to insure the vio tory they won, else they have died foi naught. To every citizen of the United States belongs this opportunity, tht last opportunity to measure up to thi standard set by the boys. The great est victory of all must be won now and the shots tWat will bring it about will be made dollars. Lend yours tc end the war. Buy Victory Liberty Loat bonds. IN FLANDERS FIELDS By Lt. Col.

FARMERS' SUPPORT URGED All the farmers in the United State are urged to support the Victory Liber ty Loan by Oliver Wilson, master ot National Grange, who characterises lie loan as "our great national respon sibility" Mr. Wilson's appeal fol lows: "For the fifth time the government Is appealing to the people for financial aid. On the four previous occasions money was needed to win the war and people of all classes liberally respond. Now comes the call for a Victory Lib erty Loan, a loan which, now that the fight to -won, is necessary to aid in finishing the great task of assuring to all peoples liberty and democracy, that oar struggles and sacrifices of the last few years may not have been made in vain. "I desire to appeal to our entire grange membership and fanners gen erally to maintain the proud record we have made m the preTknu loans. Not only subscribe what you can but give the matter prominence at your grange meetings and encourage neighbors and friends to do their part toward fulfill ing this oar great ftattonal respond-Witty." HAVE YE WON THE WAR YET ? Germany plans to steal our trade after the war were revealed in a recent address by the United States Custodian of Alien, Property. Mr. Garvan said, in part: "For nineteen months I have been engaged in a study of German indus trial life and its manifestations and activities in the United States, and I come here to-night to give you a briefly as I may a few of the incon trovertible facts which my experience has made clear. "First and foremost, be it under stood that this was an industrial war, brought on by industrial Germany in her lust-mad haste to capture the markets of the world. Industrial Ger many in its arrogance and pride pre ferred the formidable hazard of bat tle to the progressive and sure infil tration which within ten or twenty years might well have given her the world domination she sought from complacnent and unthinking peoples. "Industrial Germany was in control of Imperial Germany. Industrial Ger many sympathized and participated in the preparation for this war. In dustrial Germany waged this war. In dustrial Germany was the first to see defeat and forced the military peace, in order that with her industrial equipment intact she might continue that same war by intensified and con centrated economic measures.

It was the American branch of a great German house with con nections in all the great, countries of the world. For twenty years it has put in bids based upon the plans and specifications of every big in dustrial plant built in this country, and for that same twenty years blue prints of these specifications and floor plans and elevations have gone on file in the government office in Mr. Garvan went on to say that the I eighteen branches of German insur ance companies and the Hamburg American and Nord Deutsche Lloyd lines filed every record they could obtain in Berlin. "But greater than all, and forming' the foundation of her entire espion age and propaganda system, stood the dye industry," he continued. "Her trained observers enjoyed full access to the businesses they supplied, and regularly and faithfully reported each and every detail of the three billion dollars of annual business de pendent upon the dye industry in this country. "But that was not enough. Germany had misused our patent system, just as she had misused and violated iur Sherman law, our anti-dumping laws, our antibribery acts, our business code and our common code of hon-jthis esty. "Four thousand five hundred of these patents which applied to chemistry Mr. Palmer has sold for the benefit of American industries to a quasi-trustee corporation, called the Chemical Foundation.

President W ilson's policy of Ming in Kuroper.n agairs is be; its inevitable fruit. Six months the United States occupied a po.- lab ring ago it ion f tremendous nrestii'i' and nn:vil::r- it v with the liberal nations of the world.. The enthusiasm with which we came to the assistance of the hard pressed allies, the willingness, even the eagerness with which we poured out our resources of men and muni- tions and money and food, won for us universal gratitude and admira tion. America was a name to cor. jure with. But Mr. Wilson's attempt to act as dictator in the readjustment of Kuropean agairs, his insistence upon conformity to super-mundane ideals, his meddling in affairs with which this nation has small concern, his stubbornness in blocking the individ- uai aspirations of the victorious al- es, have already cost us much of the world's good will. It is with pain that Americans read i.f the recent the representative of this nation was welcomed with such acclaim by the Chau; Poland because she wants Dan zig for herself and not as a mere mandatory. It is a thankless task, this settling of disputes and differ ences, and reconciling all the jarring interests of the world. It is a policy, which if pursued with the unyielding i insistence which has always charac terized Mr. Wilson, may not impos sibly estrange, one after the other, the nations which fought at our side in the war and leave us isolated and friendless. As one Hendersonville woman re marked a few days ago, life is just one blamed thing after another. If you're not moving you're house cleaning. AUSTRIAN DUKES EXPELLED All the Austrian archdukes, with their families, including Archduke Friedrich, a former marshal, have been officially expelled from Austrian territory. A special train, escorted by guards, has left Vienna, conveying the arch ducal party to Switzerland. PASTES FOR BLACK AND OX-BLOOD THE CONGRESSIONAL FRANK (The Churchman, New York.) The New York Sun continues to hammer the government printing scandal. In the day3 when Dana wielded authority in the old build ing at Nassau and Spruce strees, when the Sun made up its mind to go at a scandal, something generally happened.

One can hardly credit the statements which he recently made on the floor of the House. "Ana nt mil ronffrosamoTi a wViila 0 desired to have his name con- sidered in connection with the gov ernorship of his State, with the result that he conceived the idea of send ing out a nice collection of books to the voters of his State. He sent out 640,000 parcels of books in one day, and upon inquiry at the postoffice I found that the postage would have been to ordinary mortals 45 cents each a parcel. It is a simple matter in arithmetic to see that 640,000 parcels at 45 cents apiece cost Uncle Sam over $300,000 for postage. Of course, the cost of the books them , selves would be greatly in excess of amount." Mr. Fuller recalled, as did Mr. West, that the commission consisting of Charles E. Hughes, A. Lawrence Lowell and Harry A. Wheeler which investigated the mail franked out by! Congress in 1908 reported that in one year members of Congress sent out one-fortieth of the whole mail of the United States. A member so inclined can waste a million dollars of the public's money in flooding his district with speeches, books and seeds. During the war when newspapers! were scrimping to save paper, the government went gaily on with its wide margins and useless documents. The Department of the Interior is helping to till the waste paper baskets of the country day by day with un readable publications. Just now we are consigning educational surveys to the scrap heap. We vote to give some of this money, wasted in gov ernment printing, to -well, what's the use, politics is poli'ics. JOHN WALSH HAS C UIT TRADE COMMISSION John Walsh, of Wisconsin, first chief counsel of the .'ederal trade commission, has resigned to resume the private practice of law in Wash ington. His reason was inability longer to make the "pecuniary sacri fice incident to government service." You have faith in the Hun's good intentions, but we'll bet a perfectly good American dollar that some of them are right now trying to invent a new kind of poison gas.
