AMERICAN LOANS MADE
TO THE ALLIES

Arrangements are being made'
it is said, by the Allied nations to
secure further huge American
credits to provide means to pay IN
this country for great additional
purchases of munitions and other
products of the United States
which European nations are max
ing in enormous quantities. A loan
of 5000, 100000 to $3.50, 100000 is
to be made to Great Britain and
another of S50,000,000. 1t is stat
ed chat this will raise above 81 $780,
100000 the total of American cred
its granted to the world since the
war began. 1t is thought that the
British loan will be brought out
first. for it is said to be the big

Hawthorne afire with appreciation.
George II. Madden, superintendent
of speed, has spent great deal of time
getting matters In readiness for the
speed events and announces list or
races which will satisfy everybody.
An idea of the inducements offered
to horsemen is indicated by the fact
that a total of $4,000 in purses VIII
be awarded to winners.

pacing, and trotting events. Big money
is also offered for winners in the rum
ming races, two of which will be stag

The armor plate people themselves have, in the last quarter of a century done more to create sentiment in favor of a government armor plate plant than all the agita- tors for such a plant combln- ed. Twenty-six years ago we had the "blow hole" scandal, the discovery of defective plate with which the govern ment had been swindled, pos sibly with the connivance ot it's own inspecting officers.
 The disclosures were made by former employees Of the plants. Under a more order Iy and a stricter government than our own such a crime on the part of the manufacturers and such a guilty knowledge of it on the part of govern ment officials would have brought the death penalty.
 Since then, we believe, that the armor plate sold to the government has been made according to specifications, but the robbery of the gov ernment has taken the form of excessive prices.
 Congressmen are aware ot the prices being outrageous.
 But it will remain to be seen whether the government with it's characteriStically wasteful methods can pro- duce the armor plate any cheaper. Ii we permit waste and graft to enter into the cost of it, /as waste, and some times graft, enters into the cost of so many of our gov ernment operations, we will have done no better than ii we had continued to pay the private manufacturers eX- cessive profits.

Why Colds Are to Be Dreaded

It is not the cold itself but the seri- Ous diseases it so often leads to that makes a common cold by far the most dangerous of any of the minor ail- ments.

GOVERNMENT ARMOR
 PLATE

The Tillman armor plate factory bill having passed the Senate where the greatest opposition to it might have been expected, will almost certainly pass the House, since it is regarded by the Democratic majority as well as by many members among the Republicans as an incl dent of the program of pre- paredneSs,
 But, unless our naval pro- gram is greatly increased, and the Democrats are chronical- ly averse to an extensive na- val program, it will probably be found to be a very expen- sive step in preparedness.
 The Sl1 100000 investment in the armor plate plant and it's costly and intricate ma chinery will be only the be- ginning of a great outlay for maintenance and deprecia- ton. It cannot be expected that the plant will be kept continuously in operation un- less we should follow con- stantly growing naval pro- gram.
 The preparedness motive behind the bill was probably of less weight than the aggre- gate of many other motives. The bill had the support, in the first place of senators who are opposed to almost any sort of battleship program.
 There are probably 2 req sons why the bill engaged the support of senators of t class: Some of them found in it an outlet for an expres- sion of their views on the general subject of govern ment ownership. Some oi these believe in government ownership in principle; anc others believe in it as an opening of new political jobs And, if the latter should have their way we should obtain armor plant at a cost greatly in excess of the eXactions oi the private armor plate manu. lecturers.

Game

The Tigers wind up the series

turn IN another victory. then every
one will be satisfied with the home

mean that the lanliy southpaw. who

could not be used against the White

thing like that.
