An Age of Miracles May See
New Standard of Values

Did YOU ever see yardstick that was
longer on one side than on the other!
Think that over minute.
It's not a joke, merely a paradox.
The yardstick by which civilized man,
so-called, measures all values is just that
sort of lop-sided implement.
Gold, according TO modern economists,
is about as accurate a standard as were
the scales the first settlers OF Manhat-
tan used in weighing the furs they
bought from the Indians.
The simple savageS early learned that
a white mans hand always weighed ex-
actly one pound and his foot two against
their furs!
Trouble with gold is that il is at the
same time commodity and the measure
of commodity values.
As standard its value is arbitrarily
fixed at the mint.
AS a commodity its price in terms Of
other commodities fluctuateS whenever a
prospector finds a new lode or chemist
discovers way TO save more gold from
the mill tailings.
Like other commodities, when the
average man buys il is dear and when
he sells it is cheap.
Prof. Irving Fisher, of Yale, has plan
for the government TO vary the amount
of gold in the dollar according 10 the
variations in the supply and demand.
But Prof. Frederick Soddy, of Glas-
Cow university. intimates Wen go far
Their than that.
at can scarcely be doubted" he says,
that one day we shall come 10 break
down and build up elements in the lab
oratory."
That is, some day we shall manufac-
ture gold!
Soddy and Rutherford have done some
of that already.
They have proved that uranium
changes into radium. and have changed
radium, through several steps, into po-
lonium.
They calculated polonium ought to
change into lead.
Now another chemist, Hoffman, has
AOhC lAdSr diAu Tic ICAI CudIke, dCCOTu-
ing to the scale of atomic weights,
should be from lead to gold.
The dream of the ancient alchemists
come true! Impossible? That's a word
no modern scientific investigator dares
to use.
We won't be laying golden paving
blocks tomorrow.
Indeed. the utility Of gold as a paw
ing material may be questioned.
Perhaps il will be useful for drain
pipes in open plumbing.
We don't have to decide that point,
but our descendants will have to find a
new standard of values.
What will be the new monetary yard
stick of higher civilization than ours
A days labor. maybe.
That, at least, would be a standard
that couldn't be boarded.

IL there is any such thing as civilized
warfare il consists in this: That the
belligerent confine himself TO attacking
only armed men and fortified places.
Civilized nations are supposed to direcs
their efforts toward destroying the en-
emy's military efficiency. to breaking his
power TO assault and TO resist assault.
10 Kill people or to ruin property merely
TO cause terror is pure savagery.
We are a neutral nation: we have no
call nor disposition 10 take sides with
England. We are perfectly willing, in
deed anxious, TO stand aside and let the
combatants fight out their quarrel. But
that fact should not prohibit us from
barous practices.
Dr. Dernberg. who seems to be in
charge Of the matter of creating favor
able opinion for Germany in this coun-
try, justifies the sinking of the mer-
chant ship Falaba by a German sub
marine. While he regrets the necessary
loss of life, he insists that "all the pas
sengers had ample warning that by TAX
ing passage in the steamship they would
expose themselves TO danger"
Il
able to understand the outcry of ma
ton that purposes TO kill by hundreds
10000, 900 of people, il in retaliation she
loses few hundred Of people herself of
the same class: that is TO say, noncom-
batants and civilians"
This is singular indifference to "a de-
cent respect for the opinions of man
kind" III Germany objects to being
,hA ka, ko,- -
Cd to advance and defeat the armies Of
the allies and to demolish their war
ships, and (2) to make peace. But to
send fishing craft, passenger vessels, and
unarmed merchantmen TO the bottom,
with no warning to. the crew nor chance
for their lives. also 10 kill innocent wom-
en- and children by bomb dropping and to
huri shells into HHfeHtifed coast towns,
is not war. it is outlawry.
Gen. Robert T.. Lee, commanding the
armies of the Southern Confederacy, is
sued an order to his troops in June, 1868,
as follows:
mo greater disgrace can befall the
army, and through il our whole people,
than the preparation Of barbarous out
RACES upon the innocent and the defense
less. II must be remembered
that we made war only on armed men,"
An American citizen is said to have
persisted on the Falaba. Germany warns
us that any boat in the war zone Is liable
to be torpedoed II the next to go down
is the Lusitania or some other trans
atlantic liner with Americans aboard, it
will not only definitely ALLEVIATE the SYM
patty Of great nation, and that in spite
Of all governments endeavors TO remain
neutral, but it will gain for her the over
whelming horror and Indignation of the
entire world.
There are good many millions of dol
lars worth of German ships locked in
American ports. Would il not be just
as well to keep peace with US?
On one occasion, Lincoln remarked,
during our civil conflict, when some Of
his advisers urged truculent attitude
toward England, Zone war at a time,
gentlemen The American people are
most kindly disposed toward Germany.
We have not the least wish in the world
TO quarrel with her. Haven't our Ger
man friends quite enough enemies on
their hands now?
