Glimpse of Dam.

The trip over the power house and
dam was made yesterday afternoon
The dentists established record for
the trip, going through the plant 80
per cent faster than any of the other
conventions which have been here.
When asked for an explanation for the
reason for this speed. one OF the
dentists said it was because they were
used to being on their feet all day, and
the jaunt did not tire them.
The trip to the power house and
dam was one Of the pleasing features
of the convention social features, and
the visitors enjoyed the glimpse OF
the great power project. They be-
came more interested In the wort,
than they might have been from
simply reading about 1t. Pictures were
taken on the dam and sold this morn
ing.

today in the Elks club rooms. The
two days meeting has been decided

in many ways by the sessions. Keo-
kuk has shown them a good time, they
Iall declare, and they will remember

thoughts. One OF the dentists ex-
pressed the fe lings OF all this morn
ling when he said that "Keokuk has
given us such a good time, that we'll
ibe glad to come back here again.
The meeting which has extended
lover the two days has been very sue
icessful from all viewpoints, Some OF
1.-The most noted operators in the dent
lal profession have been able to attend
| the Keokuk meeting and to give lee
lures and demonstrations. These

old acquaintances.
One of the popular figures at the
meeting this morning was DR.. George
F. Jenkins, who was at the head Of the
old Keokuk Medical college. DR.. Jenk-
ms was around shaking hands and re-
inewing friendships with the men,
who were "medics" and dents" back
in the hey-dey of the old college
times.

HARBOR TIED Up
BY HEAVIEST FOG
Fifteen Ships Lie at Anchor Off
New York-Trains and
Boats Delayed.

NEW YORK, Dec. "A fleet of fif-
teen ocean liners rocked at anchor in
heavy sea today at the entrance to
New York harbor, fog bound in the
thickest mist that has mantled this
section of the eastern seacoast for fif-
teen years.
The half million commuters that
come daily from New Jersey, Long
Island and nearby New York State
points were delayed from half an
hour to an hour and a half Trains
crawled slowly past almost hidden
semaphores. Ferryboats plying to
New Jersey and Brooklyn crept
through cloak Of mist so dense that
one could not see a boats length
ahead. Hardly half the ferries were
operated.
The weather bureau said the fog
extended over a wider area of coun-
try than was ever covered by single
fog before, and placed its western
boundary at the Mississippi river Of
Gals pronounced it the heaviest fog
Of the twentieth century.

How to Neutralize
Dangerous
Stomach Acids

Few people besides physicians realize
the importance of keeping the food con-
tents of the stomach free from acid fer
mentation. Healthy, normal digestion
cannot take place while the delicate lin
ing of the stomach is being infiamed and
distended by acid and wind-the result Of
fermenting food in the stomach. To Sc
cure perfect digestion, fermentation must
be stopped or prevented and the acid
neutralized. For this purpose, physicians
recommend getting little bisurated
magnesia from the druggist and taking
feaspoonful in little hot or cold
water Immediately after eating. They
recommend bisurated magnesia because
it is pleasant to take, has no disagree
able after effects and instantly stops fer
mentation. neutralizes the acid and
makes the sour acid, bland, sweet and
easily digested.
The regular use of bisurated magnesia
--be sure you get the bisurated, as other
kinds of magnesia are of little value--is
an absolute guarantee of healthy, normal
digestion, for 1t overcomes and prevents
that acid condition which alone is the
caueE, of Observation-Disclosures.

Urges American Manufacturers
to Produce German Goods

PHILADELPHIA Dec. "A Phila-
delphia wholesale concern specializing
in knit goods yesterday put into stock
case of silk-lined cotton gloves
shipped from a factory in Germany
on July %, and reaching New York
on last Saturday-four months being
consumed in transit. The goods were
brought on vessel from Copenhagen,
after they had lain in warehouses in
Bremen and Rotterdam.
The gloves are of a style not made
in this country. A representative of
the importing house ventures the
opinion If manufacturers here were
more ready to adapt production to
German lines that have become pop
ular there would be less idle machin-
cry. Then, too he says, "the aver
age American manufacturer seems
not over eager for business unless it
comes in good-sized Jumps, whereas,
German manufacturers are as active
in looking after small orders as in
getting after large ones"

PRINCETON. Dec. 2.-That gen
eral disarmament and universal
peace will not follow the European
war, and that the United States may
nave trouble with the winner, were
predictions made by George b. Nc
Clellan, former mayor of New York
and now professor of economic his
tory in Princeton University, in an
address which he delivered here last
night.
NO matter who wins" said Pro-
fessor Mcclellan, at is almost GER
tain that at some not far distant
date we shall be confronted with
the alternative of either abandoning
the Monroe Doctrine or fighting to
maintain it. We have made of il a
great national principle, a question
of national honor, so that If we aban-
don 1t, we must concede that we are
not strong enough to maintain it, that
we are only a second-class power at
the mercy of all the staggering bull
lies of the earth. If we fight for it
in our present unprepared condition,
there can be but one outcome. A
triumphant and victorious Germany
would have little to fear from us, and
while we might possibly in the end
be able to check Japan by herself,
she received help"
las neutrals we owe our first duty
to our country. First of all we are
Americans and as Americans it is
our duty to help our President in his
patriotic effort to maintain strict
neutrality and we can also learn q
lesson for the future. We can best
serve civilization by serving our own
country. If ever in this struggle
there comes an opportunity for medi-
alton the belligerents will ask me-
diation only from those who have
been reasonably non-partisan.
There has recently been much in
sistence that 1t is our duty as one of
the signers of the thirteen Conven-
tons and one declaration adopted at
the second Hague conference in 1907
to protest against any violation of
their terms by any Of the belligerents.
AS a matter of fact none of these
conventions and declarations apply
excepting between contending powers
and then only of all the belligerents
are parties. The ten conventions and
the declaration which refer to the
conduct of belligerents and neutrals
after the commencement of hostiii-
ties were none of them ratified by all
the belligerents in the present war,
and are therefore neither morally
nor legally binding on any one of
those who did ratify.
1.-THE fundamental cause of this war
is the spirit of lationality which has
been the inspiration and dominant
note in Europe for the last two CEN
turies It is not one man or a group
of men who have brought it about.
The charge OF militarism can be made
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1914-12-02

against all. The colossal military ex-
pense has been too great and the re-
suit was either disarmament or war
The first WAS impossible and il re-
solved itself into who could make
war first. The people took up arms
as nations. 1t is q peoples war, a
national war.
Territorial expansion has gone
with this spirit of nationality and
as the boundaries of Europe are linn
tied it was necessary to go outside
for territory. England has been lead
ing in colonization and she has won
her colonies of blood and conflict.
Germany came late into this land
grabbing game, but her growth ne
cessitated the acquisition of land. If
she had started In time she would
have been as bad a thief as Great
Britain and as bad a ruler as Bel
GUM in the Congo.
Let us face the conditions as they
are. Under any circumstances we
must not believe that universal peace
will follow. The spirit of nationality
will not be less at the conclusion.
The victors will continue to make a
trial for a world power and Germany
and Japan believe that their natural
growth must take them beyond the
be satisfied with North Africa. Ger
man interests will not restrain her
from establishing coaling stations,
spheres of influence, etc., in South
America. Should the allies win tho
same thing will happen. Japan
needs territory. She has seized the
Marshall Islands and says she will
turn them over to Australia, but she
has not done SO. The door Is closed
to immigration and they are waiting
to seize Mexico
mo matter who wins IL is almost
certain that at some not far distant
date we shall be confronted with the
alternative of either abandoning the
Monroe doctrine or fighting to main
tain it. We have made of 1t great
national principle, a question of ma
tional honor, so that If we abandon
it we must concede that we are not
strong enough to maintain It, That
we are only a seconded power at
the mercy of all the staggering bull
lies of the earth. If we fight for ii
in our present condition of unpre-
paredness there can be but one out
come.
"a triumphant and victorious Ger
many would have little to fear from
us and while We might possibly in
the end be able to check Japan by
herself, for her financial resources
are limited, we could scarcely hope
to do so If she should receive help"
Professor Mcclellan closed his adj
dress with a stirring appeal that
America awaken from her state of
unpreparedness and that steps be
taken to insure a defense of our
country.

.LLOYD-GEORGE
EXPLAINS debt"
Tells What He Meant by As
sertion U. S. Owes Eng
land SIS, 600, 900, 900.
By the Associated Press.


LONDON, Dec. 2.-As a result Of
reports of American correspondents
of London newspapers that the
statement of David Lloyd-George,
chancellor of the exchequer, to the
effect that the United States owed
Great Britain. about 00,O00,000
f$5, 900, 900 000) had caused surprise in
the United States. Mr.. Lloyd-George
gave out yesterday the following
statement:
Judging from the comments which
have appeared in the American press
on chancellor of the exchequers
statement on Friday last in the
House of Commons with regard to
exchange between this country and
the United States, this appears to
have been incompletely reported in
America. Mr.. Lloyd-George's actual
words as reported in the official re-
port were:
America, 1 suppose, owes us
nearly a thousand million pounds in
fixed and floating capital, but we
could not buy. 1t was impossible to
do any business. Why? The ex-
changes had broken down. This
paper machine had crumpled and
somehow got out of order and the
result was that no business was pos
sible.'
This statement seems to have
reached the United States in the
form that America owed the United
Kingdom a thousand million pounds
without any explanatory words that
this sum was owed in fixed and float
ing capital. These words, of course,
make 1t quite clear that Mr.. Lloyd
Georges statement referred to the
total of British invested capital in
America and in no way to Amer
ica's Indebtedness in respect of the
current balance of trade between the
Two countries"
In the course of a statement con-
corning the financial condition in
Great Britain, Mr.. Lloyd-George told
the House of Commons last Friday
that the financial deadlock which
followed the outbreak of the war was
due to inability to collect outstand-
ing debts abroad. He was quoted as
saying that the United States owed
Great Britain $4,000, 100000 and as
adding, But we could do no bust
ness

Russian Markets Lost to
United States During War

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-one of the
important markets temporarily lost to
the United States through the war en-
tanglement is that of Russia. Late
advices show that for the first six
months of the present year imports
into Russia were 1866, 100000 a gain
of Sc, 000, 900 over the corresponding
period of last year. The country's ex-
ports were $34S, 1872 900. against $3.50,
1885, 900 for the first six months Of last
year.
Imports into Russia in which the
United States particularly Is interest
ed, and which showed an appreciable
gain over the first half of 1918, include
agricultural implements, automobiles,
bicycles and motorcycles, copper, cot
ton and cotton goods, tools and man
ufactures of iron and steel, electrical,
metal working and other machinery,
furniture, leather and leather betting.

SHAW HITS IRISH
Who FAVOR KAISER
Tells His Countrymen Not to
Turn Backs on France, an
Old Friend.

LONDON, Dec. 2.-George Bernard
Shaw, in letter to the Dublin Free
mans Journal, the official organ of
the Irish Nationalist party, referring
to the demands made for the sup
preston of the extreme Irish papers
which advocate pro-German views,
says in part:
"At this moment the Irishman who
declares himself the friend of Pots
dam, declares himself an enemy to
France. II there is one institution
on earth that has stronger claims
than Dublin Castle to the implacable
political hostility of every extreme
Democrat or Republican in the
world, that institution Is Potsdam.
If the English are willing to stand
by their old enemy is ireland going
to turn it's back on it's old friend?
If Fortenay is to be fought over
again, as seems likely enough, will
the Irish brigade betray its old
comrades, the French, for the sake
of Prussia?
I'VE fought for France when she
was a military tyranny as danger
Gus to freedom as Potsdam is now
Are we going to fight against her
now that she is republic and shares
with America, whom she helped to
her freedom, the honor of being the
hope of Republicans all the world
over? No, our side is the side of
France and the Irishman who for
gets it forgets the history of his
country.
THE ideal thing would be an Irish
brigade joining the French army di-
rect. and eclipsing the London
Scottish and Kitchener's army by
their valor and discipline. But as
there are practical difficulties of
language and organization in the
way of this course, I have made a
strong appeal to the war office to do
away with the silly and useless oaths
and terms which stick in the throats
Of Irish recruits, and to set free the
attesting officers for really useful
service. Probably the war office will
not have sense enough to comply, but
at all events the Irishmen who will
not swear allegiance to the king need
not swear it to the kaiser.
what I cannot stand on any
terms is the man whose nationality
is negative instead of positive-the
anti-E nglislman and the anti-Irisll-
man-and the Yankee who calls him
self an American Gael and tells you
stories of how his grandfather was
evicted from his happy home in the
Bog of Allen with the result, first,
that you don't believe him and, Sec
ond, that you wish grandfather had
been buried in the bog and his
grandchildren with him."

Wants Khaki in Navy

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.--Another
plea for uniform of khaki and for
estry green to replace the bullet
drawing white worn by American
seamen was made by Surgeon General
BREASTED OF the navy, in his annual
report submitted today to Secretary
Daniels. 1t was pointed out that the
disadvantages OF the white uniform
were strihingly illustrated at Vera
Cruz, where the sailors offered per-
feet targets for sharpsheoters and
Shippers.
