and succeeded in having the motion
voted down. Roosevelt and Hughes
forces I'm the committee joined hands
to defeat the plan and claimed an
important victory in the first scrim-
mage with the organization. Chair
man Hilles and managers of the IA

see no significance in the action, and
insisted that the only purpose of the
appointment of subcommittees was TO

Harold l.. Geklcs, committeeman
from Illinois in the progressive party
declared that he favored nominating
Roosevelt regardless of any action

again to enforce the laws, and there
are no political strings being pulled
to prevent the officers from doing
their duty.
1t has been claimed that the force
has been short of men, making 1t i'm
possible to cover the city properly.
With four more men on the force this
excuse is removed. With the in
crease in pay, which the people have
so generously voted for the police
men. the people have the right to
expect more strict enforcement Of
the law in every particular.
The matter is entirely in the hands
of the policemen themselves. If the
men are worth anything at all, they
must certainly know what is going
on. With more men and increased
pay the people have right to expect
a big improvement in the condition
OF the city. particularly over the
weekend.

PEACE CHANCES

Premier David Lloyd George. in
his speech before the House OF Com
mons yesterday, very gracefully put
she question of peace up to Germany
The demands of the Allies are
restitution, reparation and guaran-
tee against repetition. In other words.
before the Allies will consider any,
thing like peace proposals Germany
must agree to restore the nations of
Europe as she found them before the
war began; she must make amends,
SO far as possible, for the great loss
and suffering that has been brought
on by the, war, and she must guaran-
tee that there will be no repetition
of such struggle. This guarantee
must be something stronger than
mere treaty agreements, which were
treated as scraps of paper when 1t
suited the Germans to disregard
them.
If Germany is ready to agree to
reSllJutlOn, Tepardtloii anu 6uaitihISo
that she will not break treaties again,
there -can be peace without much
further delay. Should she agree TO
them. however, the German armies
will not be as victorious as the Ger
man chancellor stated in his speech
when the offer for peace discussions
was first made.
That the Allies stand united in the
demands as set forth by Lloyd
George for tho consideration of
peace, is apparent. We believe that
these demands meet with the ap-
proval of all neutral nations 1t is
now up to Germany to say whether
or not she will talk peace.
If the conditions in Germany are
as bad as some people suspect, Ger
many may finally agree. If the mill
tary party in Germany is still able
to control however, and dares to
ignore the demands of the masses in
Germany, the war will doubtless so
on. Apparently. it is for the German
people themselves to solve the prob
lem by putting an end to the domina-
tion by the military caste in their
own empire.

Luke MCImIke SAYS

Ever notice that a man will take
advice from an absolute stranger
when he won't pay any attention to
what a lifelong friend has to say?
When a man Is in church he never
forgets the fact that a nickel makes
more noise than a dollar bill when 1t

When some women are dressed up
they remind you of thirty-cent dog
that is wearing n 500 collar.
Any man can break himself of the
smoking habit If he wants to. All he
has to do is to let his wife buy his
cigars for him.
1t is Ripping Laughter when your
girl does it. But it is Silly Cackling
when some other girl does 1t.
Maybe the reason why it is so hard
to get a man to go to church is be-
cause he was married in one.
A married woman can't do 1t. But
an old maid knows that if she had a

RAIDER CHASED LINER.
Adriatic Escaped Mysterious Ship by
surst of Speed.

Adriatie Escaped Mysterious Ship by
Surst of Speed.
New York, Dec. 20.-Submarines,
German sea raiders and orders from
the British admiralty delayed for more
than forty eight hours the voyage OF
the White Star liner Adriatic, which
arrived here with seventy-thres passen-
gers and a big Christmas mail.
The passengers got their worst scare
when they sighted, off the Grand
Banks, vessel flying no flag. 1t an
swered reported descriptions Of the
German raider concerning whose pres
ence on this coast there have been re-
peated wireless warnings.
The vessel was headed straight for
the Adriatic and refused to identify
herself by wireless. Captain Ransom
turned the Adriatic about and put on
full speed. The six inch gun, the
largest carried by any Of the merchant
ships reaching this port, was loaded
and trained.

OUR Wt,ECK-STREWN COAST

The numerous wrecks that have
. occurred along the New Jersey shore
during the past week or two again
call attention to the value of an in
land waterway parallehng the Allan
tic coast. The proposed ship canal
across New Jersey is one of the most
. .important links in this waterway
system. The cost of the vessels that
have been lost during the past few
days would go a great way toward
paying for this canal
The fact that one OF the latest
victims of the Barnegat sands is the
army transport Summer will empha-
size upon the government the need
of an inland waterway along the
coast as nothing else would. Private
ship owners have been suffering for
years because OF the neglect and in
difference of congress in reference to
this great project. The government
itself will now have some experience
as to what this loss means.
Every year there is more money
wasted by the federal government on
useless waterway projects than would
pay for the proposed inland waterway
along the Atlantic coast. If congress
could only be induced to cut out the
pork" and work solely for the in
terest of the nation, what a great
saving there would be, and what
wonderful progress we would make.
With the commerce of the world
paralyzed because of the scarcity of
ships, the loss caused by the wrecks
along the Jersey coast during the
past ten days is far greater than is
represented by the value of the ships
themselves. To permit this enormous
waste to go on year after year when
the means to prevent it is so simple,
Is a crime.
The lesson of the wrecks that are
strewn along the New Jersey coast
today ought to furnish a lesson that
will be needed.

TIME FOR IMPROVEMENT

The appointment of four new
policemen by Mayor Garretson, to-
gether with the increase in pay which
the people voted to the members Of
the police force in November, ought
to be an incentive for the policemen
to renew their efforts to put an end
to lawlessness, particularly on Satur-
day nights and early Sunday morn
ings throughout the city. The week
end brawls and fights that clog the
police court Sunday and Monday
mornings show that there is great
room for Improvement.
1t should be remembered that the
numerous munition plants that have
located In this vicinity during the
past year have brought in an element
that has done much to change local
