President believed in government owner

considered the taking over of the meat

farmers sell their cattle, hogs and sheep

MOST RIGID Of
CENSORSHIPS IN

Over 1000 Persons Employed

London. March 12.-More than a
thousand persons are now employed
in censoring news or letters entering

to q statement by the government in

the inquirer. IF cables and CORES

United states are so interefered with
that they fail to give a just and COM
plete picture of public opinion in
that country
The government spokesman in re-
ply said that it was not considered
advisable TO give out the nature of
the censors nor TO make public the
actual instructions given them for
their guidance. Speaking generally,
however, the instructions aimed to
prevent the circulation of informa-
ton valuable to the enemy and to
prevent the circulation of information

To the successful prosecution of the
war There was no censorship of for
eign newspapers coming into Eng
land except an examination for se-
Cret ciphers and news from foreign
countries was not unduly interfcred

Commenting on Viscount Bryce's
inquiry, Lord Loroburn said that he
believed tho censorship could do
very little good, but might do a great
deal of harm. There Is undoubtedly
a great deal of apprehension" he
added. that information is not given

THINGS rs THY ARE.

Neutrality Is equal treatment Of oll
berigeronls The important relation
between neutrals and belligorents is
trade. Trade Of beligcrcnta is con-
trolled boy sea power. which may per-
nit or exclude il, always respecting
tho rights Of neutrals in the method.
In the first six months Of this war,
the United states sent q half billion
dollars worth OF new exports 10 Eu-
rope. These were offered To the
world impmtinlly. Nations that want
ed them. took them 50 far ~ their
control Of sea power left their ports
open 20 trade.
Most Of The half billion went to the
allies. though Germany got some of
the goods directly or through neu-
trail countries. Much Of the exports
went through Canada, because sea
shipments from Canadian ports were
more secret, though some OF II went
from ports along the Atlantic and

plaHned the campaign Just rs though
Woodrow Wilson were pawn. The
game was theirs and they played it,
/ To be sure they elected a man who
came thoroughly to life ana gave
them the surprise Of their existence.
This is not the present point. The
/ point is that in Woodrow Wilson
there is a living example Of man
who was marched into the presi-
dency with the wary dciiberution with
(which an army is marched through
an enemy country Cautiously every
step was made and every night the
question was asked and answered 4:
HAS the governor Of New Jersey
progressed toward the presidency
today?'
No Despair in Candidates Ranks.
What has been done may be done
again There is no reason why any
hoe-stung statesman should despair.
Clark does not despair. Underwood
does not despair Cummins does not
despair. Neither do Borah, Burton or
Whitman. Despair never won a man
the presidency. 1t is hope, hope that
makes the neighbors laugh, this is
what does it.
Ordinarily the president in office
succeeds to the second nomination
without much of struggle, but
there are lots of one-term presidents

Wilson'S Desire Not Known.
whether the president means to be
a candidate for denomination and
election is not known Some people
think that he viii decide it himself
and that he will decide against a
second term. But the president does
not always decide things for himself.
1T is quite significant that he recent
~ decided against an extra session of
congress after he had virtually noti-
fed his party that it was coming if
they did not pass the ship purchase
bill, because coterie of national
committeeman got to him and repre-
scented that it would be bad for the
party
Evidently the president for once
put the party above a piece Of legis-
laton in which he took a warm in
terest. why did he? 1t is rumored
that one of the national committee
men told the president plainly that
they were depending on him to run
again and they wanted the founda-
ton of a successful campaign laid.
Frankly he told the president that
there had been legislation enough
for q campaign, what was now need
ed was to consolidate the gains, to
turn the scattered assets of the first
two years into an organized force
President strong for Duty.
The president, VINO is strong for
duty. regardless of policy, was in
duced at last to take this view and it
is a good guess that he would not
have taken it if the national commit
teemen had not shown him how to
get four years more TO complete his
work instead Of rushing it to hasty
conclusion, with striking workmen on
the job.
The present purpose of the Clark
and Underwood forces is to weaken
the presidents determination to run,
il he has it, by making enemies for
him in the south or to come up as
the great and only regular states
men of the organization if he does
not wish TO run.

Tan act of wanton cruelty If the sto-
lues from British sources are TO be
credited Had a thousand women and
children persisted during the attack
on fortified city, We would have re-
igurded It as merely one Of the neces-

War Is violence. It can be nothing
