U. S. BACKBONE OF WAR,
AVER SCANDINAVIANS
Moral Faith in America Shaken by
Munition Shipments.

Judson King, secretary Of the National
Popular Government League, who has
lately returned from Scandinavian coun-
tries, in which he has been lecturing on
the city management plan Of municipal
government and other subjects relative
to It, has pronounced his trip as being
very successful.
Mr.. King established a popular govern
ment league in Denmark and he states
they were quick to grasp the Importance
and far-reaching effects of the "one-man"
city. Many other cities in Scandinavia
were interested in the plan, and measures
were started Immediately to organize
something similar.
Mr.. King states that 70 per cent of the
people in Scandinavia have relatives n
the United States, and % per cent speak
the English language fluently. Their
views of America in the present struggle
are that she is the backbone OF the war,
and that our moral influence over neu-
tral countries is fast decreasing by rea-
son of our being the constant source of
money and ammunition for the entente
allies.

was a spirited animal, rated one or
the fastest runners or the hundred or
more in the Inceville stables. He
prepared to mount, and then noticed
for the first time that the animal was
equipped with a western saddle, with
dangling stirFups He hesitated as
he had never used a western saddle.
He wanted the stirrups raised so that
he could ride with his knes bent up
in front of him-jockey fashion-as

long heeled boots, laughed at him.
They assured him no American army
officer ever rode that way
That night, unbeknownst to the

At the end of the week he had grown
used to the long full sweep Of the
stirrups. Then, going to Reginald

he asked that he be given full charge
of the troops Barker agreed and
taking the director into his conf .

for the camera.
He picked the widest country about
